This committee was composed of Mnyor Mc- ^uaker, DC. Hersliey and councilor SVills- jy iiccinnpaiiied by Miss ^fotter, deacon- ess of the King's Daughters. These came from the county town last Wednes- day, and were joined here by Keev e Ennis and Or. Kg", the Home of Refuse phyoician. They went through "Hume" and found eveiything that had any Ijear- ,' on the management of the building iu excellent shape, nothing with the lea-t objection could be found. There evi jeutly xhould be further pio- vision mide for the mildly demented other than in either the ay.slumj or ni the House of Refuge. It N not right that those who are naithrr very insane or violent should be sent to associate wih thote who are quite insane. Neither is it right that those who are only mildly i in i IK- thould be sent to associate with thone poor old peopl* whose uiiafoituoe is tlmt they %re >' |K>or that they have to go i > the house of refuse. There should be something between '.he house of refuge and i he insan^ asyluui for the iligntly di menled. The mayor ij of the impressiun that whit they saw at the Markdale house of refuge is quitj sufficient, reison for them making the 8t longest representations to the provincial government. Five of those who are in the house of refuge he says are demented, and only on* of those who have been eer.t hick. The othcii< all remained there. The superintendent sayn that though they are never otntrep- erous when he is theie they sometimes create considerable disturbance when he is away from them. This is what is to trying on those who are entirely sane, it is held Stand-trd. \\liite I) Mi 44, C A. C.
