Horrors of Our Insane Asylums.
Maniacs Crowded Together Like Cattle. The Awful
Death Rate of a Single Year. But Three Physicians
for 1104 Crazy Patients. Children Chucked in
With the Violently Insane.
(From the Philadelphia North American.)
There is a poor, gray-bearded, old man, a
patient in the State Hospital for the Insane
at Norristown, whose eyes always fill with
tears when he looks around him. He has
not been in the institution very long, and
the fact that he weeps at the sight in the
ward he is in is such a strong evidence of
his sanity that the physicians who are
studying his case doubt whether he is real-
ly crazy.
Just such a sympathetic patient, one
whose conduct had always been exemplary,
hanged himself to the guard rail over the
door of a room a year ago, when the condi-
tions in the hospital were not so bad as
they are now.
And yet if there is a public institution
in the State manifestly well managed it is
the Norristown Hospital for the Insane.
Outside all is neatness and beauty. In-
side everything is as clean as the holyston-
ed deck of a ship. Nevertheless, there is a
horror at Norristown, the horror of over-
crowding.
It is said that the institution has to-day
the largest population of any asylum for
the insane in the world. There are 2229
patients in the place. The total hygienic
capacity of all the dormitories and small
rooms, even including the two infirmary
sections, is 1153 patients.
What this cruelty to unreasoning unfor-
tunates really means can be understood
when it is stated that the Norristown Hos-
pital has two patients everywhere that one
can be safely kept.
ENORMOUS DEATH RATE.
This is no fancy estimate. It is the com-
putation of Dr. David Darlington Richard-
son, chief resident physician of the male
department of the hospital, an alienist of
high authority. It is based upon the rule
endorsed by Landois and Sterling abroad,
and Austin Flint in New York, that not
less than 800 cubic feet of air space is suf-
ficient for one healthy person.
During the last year 189 patients died in
the institution, and there was no epidemic;
in fact, the danger of typhoid had been
averted by supplying nothing but artesian
well water for drinking purposes. More
patients died than were discharged as re-
stored or improved, this total being 162.
Tuberculosis caused fifty-six of the deaths.
“We may attribute twenty-five per cent.
of the deaths from this disease,”” wrote Dr.
Richardson, ‘‘to unsanitary conditions, due
to severely taxing the ventilation. The
cubic atmospheric allowance has been great-
ly diminished, making the demand for
oxygen much greater than the supply. Pa-
tients admitted with consumption bring
with them tubercle bacilli, which find, in
the vitiated breathing space of the hospital,
environment admirably adapted to the prop-
agation of their kind.”
Last summer there was an epidemic of
dysentery, and many patients are suffering
this season. Dr. Susan J. Taber, chief
physician of the female department, says:
“These cases are directly traceable to the
overtaxing of the sewers.”
THE CRUELTY OF IT.
But, ofter all, the dead are dead. It is
the awful cruelty that overcrowding brings
upon the hopeless demented persons still
living that makes the matter of vital im-
portance to the community.
To attempt to alleviate the suffering and
care for the physical need of all these de-
mented beings, hut three physicians are
provided. Danville, with all its horrors,
has six physicians for 1100 patients, while
Norristown has but three for 2229.
MANIACS HUDDLED TOGETHER.
A reporter for the North American saw
the entire 1107 patients.
First, patients suffering with mild forms
of insanity were visited. Gradually, as
the back wards were reached, the percen-
tage of violence increased. So with the
overcrowding. In the first wards entered
there was manifestly too many insane, but
in the back wards the maniacs were fairly
packed together, so that it seemed unsafe,
hoth for them and for the attendants.
Under such conditions as exist in the
worst wards cleanliness is next to impossi-
ble. It isto the credit of the management,
however that a hurculean effort is being
made to keep the place sanitary.
CHILDREN WITH VIOLENT PATIENTS.
There are so many patients that proper
segregation is out of the question. Noisome
idiots were in the same wards with cases of
delusional insanity. Men with arms con-
fined in sole leather cuffs and continuous
sleeves—men who constantly writhe and
twist like izjured snakes—were on benches
across a narrow hall from others who seem-
ed to take pride in dressing neatly, who
argned earuestly with the doctor for dis-
charge. Then, too, in these same noisy
wards were some mere children that Judges
should never have sent to such a place.
Some of them in rooms crowded with
frightful maniacs.
There are not enough private rooms for
the unfortunates who really ought te be
alone. Many wild men, gradually wear-
ing themselves out with raving, are thus
forced out into the main wards. Restraints
are done away with as much as possible.
Attendants are constantly under the eye of
inspectors, and if patients are handled with
uncalled for roughness somebody loses a
position. But under present circumstances
the wards being fairly jammed with crazy
men, these steps in the direction of greater
freedom prove abortive.
HOW THEY GET AIR.
So pressing is the need for fresh air in
the wards that nowadays even many of the
violent cases are taken out each day for a
walk in the open air.
Patients have escaped. One of them not
long ago walked to Bangor, Pa., before any
one stopped him.
It is the sick inmates who are most se-
riously harmed by the stifling condition of
things. There is not room enough in the
sick ward in the infirmary for the men who
are too ill to get out of bed. If the capaci-
ty of the institution had not been exceeded
there would be room in this ward for all
sick patients except the most violent. As
it is now, many a sick and mentally un-
sound man, who is quiet enough in his ill-
ness, must remain in bed in a ward with
noisy, demented men walking all about
him. The chances of getting well under
such disadvantages are shim.
All the cots in the sick ward are occu-
pied. All the private sickrooms are full.
Four attendants down vith typhoid are in
the same room with the insane sick. This
is a matter of much concern to the hospital
authorities. They would like to give these
attendants who are ill rooms by themselves
but there are no rooms. Then again, they
would like to keep typhoid patients apart
from other sick persons who have no such
infectious disease.
WHEN DARKNESS COMES.
As at Danviile, itis at night that the
horrors of the hospital are most noticeable.
There is scarcely room in the dormitories
to squeeze between the narrow iron heds.
In the hallways there is only a two-foot
aisle between the improvised cots and the
mattresses that cover the floor.
The patients who lie on cots in the hall
cannot sleep. Lights must burn over their
heads all night long. A watchman walks
back and fourth over them at frequent in-
tervals. Occasionally some poor creature
becomes violent, and the whole hallway is
in an uproar.
Under the arrangements in vogue in the
hospital mild insanity cases are in wards
on the first floor, and the more violent cases
on upper floors. The cots in hallways are
mostly in upper floors. This compels the
mildly insane to go upstairs with the vio-
lently insane to sleep.
And this in a State that parades its liber-
ality, vaunts its charity and boasts of its
wealth and institutions! That at the behest
of a state ring refuses to tax corporations
and brewers, and for this reason is unable
to care for its insane, to keep open its hos-
pitals, or to properly maintain its public
schools.
Oh, disgraced Pennsylvania !
Oh, ring cursed Commonwealth !
A Bride’s Horrible Fate.
A Cuban Colonel and Lieutenant of Police Tortures
His Young Wife.
A story of revolting cruelty has reached
here from Havana, Cuba. Among the well
known Cuban leaders in Havana is Col.
Pedro Pinan De Villega, a dentist, and
now lieutenant of police. He has been a
most exemplary officer, and had the regard
all of who came in contact with him. He
was a widower.
About two months ago he married a very
pretty young woman, Esperanza De Azcar-
reta, and the wedding was celebrated with
great social eclat. At first his friends vis-
ited his home, but after a while little by
little they dropped off, and nobody ever
went to Pinan De Villega’s house, nor did
anybody see his wife. Fora time the
neighbors did not notice it, but soon it was
observed that the house was always closed.
The family of Esperanza did not hear of
the daughter. They hecame worried, and
at last one of the brothers determined to
call on Esperanza. Accompanied by a
friend of the family, they forced an en-
trance into the house, and were greeted by
screams and a woman’s voice saying: ‘‘God,
send me death; I cannot stand this any
longer.” Drawing a revolver, he went in-
to the front room, and there saw kneeling
on the floor his sister, Espernaza. But
what a sight it was! There was not a stitch
of clothing on her. Her body * was a mass
of ugly sores and purple spots, and her
bear tiful black hair had been cut close to
her head. Her face was covered with little
black spots and her eyes had a wild haunt-
ed look.
Half frenzied he covered her with a sheet |
while she hung cowed-like to his breast,
murmuring, like a terrified child. “Look
out‘ he is coming. Pedro is coming.”
Opening the door some of the neighbors
quickly came to his aid, and after being
hurriedly dressed in a wrapper she was tak-
en to the home she had so lately left a blush-
ing bride. Little by little between her
sobs, her fainting spells and her syncopes,
the horrible story of her martyrdom was
tearned. Five days after their marriage her
husband proposed to her to go to a noter-
ious house and become an inmate, and that
with what she earned they.could live bet-
ter.
As she refused he began to subject her to
most dastardly and inhuman acts. He
would be smoking a cigar and without any
notice or reason would apply the burning
end to her delicate flesh, leaving a black
and smoking hole, laughing the while de-
risively at her sufferings.
At the point of the pistol he forced her
to write a confession that she had previcus-
ly been a notorious woman, and soon after-
ward cut off her beautiful hair, leaving her
every day without clothes, so that she could
not go to her friends.
When she would not consent to earn an
immoral living for her husband, he bought
digitalis, and began to administer daily
doses to her, telling her that as she was of
no use to him she might as well die, and
soon her body became covered with sores
and black spots, her heart became affected
her nervous system destroyed, and she is
now a wreck. It has heen positively as-
certain that he drove his first wife, who
was only 19 vears of age, to suicide, and it
is only a question of time until his present
wife dies.
Villegas ‘was arrested and placed in jail.
Reed Gets the Credit.
The Ex-Speaker is Said to Have Made Tammany's
Chief an Anti-imperialist.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 15. — Ex-Speaker
Reed is credited here with having convert-
ed Richard Croker from an imperialist to
an anti-imperialist during their passage
home from Europe. Mr. Croker’s inter-
views on the subject are regarded as re-
flecting Mr. Reed’s views, and the Tam-
many hess sems to have yielded to the
more powerful personality of the ex-speaker.
Mr. Croker’s flop to Bryan is not cred-
ited to Mr. Reed, but to Mr. Croker’s be-
lief that Bryan’s nomination is inevitable,
and that it is profitable to get Tammany
into line, or rather to bring its captains
into line, with the rank and file, who show-
ed their feelings when they cheered ex-
Governor Hogg’s allusions to Bryan at the
Van Wyck meeting of Tammany Hall,
Fourth of July.
Probably Mr. Croker, like ex-Governor
Stone, of Missouri, and other men who are
supporting Mr. Bryan unwillingly, believes
that Mr. Bryan will be defeated in the
election, but he may not consider this an
unmixed evil, since the Democratic hope is
for 1904, and by that time such Democratic
leaders want Mr. Bryan eliminated.
Whirled Around in a Wheel.
The horse which Elsie and Stella Logue
and Maud Wyckoff were driving near Gale-
ton, in Potter county Thursday night, ran
off and the three women jumped from the
carriage in which they were riding. The
clothing of Elsie Logue was caught in the
wheel and shewas thrown violently to the
ground, her head being fastened in the
wheel. Her body was whirled around until
a spoke was broken. Her skull was fractur
ed.
Big Forest on Ice.
One of the largest forests in the world
stands on ice. It is situated between Ural
and the Okhotsk sea. A well was dug in
that region, when it was found that ata
depth of 340 feet the ground was still
frozen.

HALL WE DISPUTE.
THE OPINIONS OF SCORES OF OUR
LOW CITIZENS
Residents of Bellefonte like oth-
er American citizens, if making an
investment want to be sure of get-
ting the worth of their money.
They want to know all the whys and
wherefores, and in a direct ratio
to the value of the investment they
burrow and ferret until satisfied
with the collateral. Take an in-
stance in the realm of proprietary
articles. If we know of a friend
who has been cured, we have some
faith in the preparation; if we
know of two or three our faith in-
creases. If the cures reach scores,
all well known citizens, and any-
one who still maintains that there
is nothing beyond ordinary merit
in the said preparation can safely
be left to the care of his fellow tax-
payers. If he wishes to pick a
quarrel with them on the question
of their judgmentand veracity, he
has ample opportunity in Belle-
fonte to do so. Begin with this
case :
Mrs. J. Cowher, of Bishop street,
says: “I was very bad with my
back and head. I suffered pain in
both and was very restless nights
besides being =o tired all the time
that I could hardly drag myself
about. I was very lame across my
kidneys and bending over or being
on my feet much was extremely
painful. Reading about Doan’s
