One apartment was occupied by three men, John Flowers, aged 50, an Irlshmau, an inmate for 7 months; Thomas South, egnd 70, an Englishman, an inmate for three yuan, and another old old man. Two of thein were considered in their right minds and worked daily on the farm, but Flowers was out of his mind at times. This morning he arose stealthily, seized a small heavy bcnch from the floor and with cat-like tread approached South'* bed. The peaceable and well-liked old man was sleeping soundly. Flowers then quickly pounded the old man to death, beating his hoad almost to a jelly. The murder was before the third man In tho room, asleep in a bed near by, was a wakened. TTio alarm was given and Flowers seemed and locked in an iron call. Than he liegan raving, and said that the old man had kilhid some one, said that the Lord Jeans had instructed him (Flowers) to murder the old man In the manner in which he did. A coroner's jury severely censured the state hoard of charities for not authorising the transfer of feeble-minded persons to tlie insane department of the county hospital. It appears there are a numb ir of IMODlo occupying ribonis among the azCi;l poor' and sane, who are in daily danger of their livss.

One apartment was occupied by three men, John Flowers, aged 50, an Irlshmau, an inmate for 7 months; Thomas South, egnd 70, an Englishman, an inmate for three yuan, and another old old man. Two of thein were considered in their right minds and worked daily on the farm, but Flowers was out of his mind at times. This morning he arose stealthily, seized a small heavy bcnch from the floor and with cat-like tread approached South'* bed. The peaceable and well-liked old man was sleeping soundly. Flowers then quickly pounded the old man to death, beating his hoad almost to a jelly. The murder was before the third man In tho room, asleep in a bed near by, was a wakened. TTio alarm was given and Flowers seemed and locked in an iron call. Than he liegan raving, and said that the old man had kilhid some one, said that the Lord Jeans had instructed him (Flowers) to murder the old man In the manner in which he did. A coroner's jury severely censured the state hoard of charities for not authorising the transfer of feeble-minded persons to tlie insane department of the county hospital.
