Several cases recently brought before the courts of this county on writs of habeas corpus have served to call attention to the lax manner in which the laws involving the liberty and rights of those suspected or claimed to be insane are administered. It is, in the first place, difficult to frame a general law for the care of the insane, since the disease is one of many shades or de- grees, and a law to cover all cases ought to be a flexible one. Inthe second place, the victim, though in the eyes of the law unfortunate rather than criminal, is practically more helpless than the criminal, because the accusation itself is al- most certain to be accepted as the strongest evi- dence that the person accused is of unsound mind. A plea of not guilty from a criminal com- pels thorough inquiry and demands abundant proof of guilt; a denial of alleged insanity goes for nothing. Sympathy with the suspected con- dition of the accused person often leads to a de- cision of insanity, and often mistakenly curtails necessary investigation. Once incarcerated, it is next to impossible to obtain a rehearing, and many minds, somewhat weakened by in- dulgences or natunal causes, are maddened by the very fact and circumstances of hopeless con- finement in any asylum. In the Woodruff, the Obreight, the O'Neil and the McNamara cases lately before the courts very thorough investiga- tion was fortunately had, and in each case the result has been the discharge of the men as sane. In the Woodruff case referred to, a man of sixty was engaged for two years in obtaining an investigation of charges on which he had been confined in Bloomingdale asylum. When the inquiry was had, it was found that he had been arrested on complaint of neighbors by a policeman without a warrant, locked up over night, and committed by a magistrate the next day, without a trial by Jury, on the certificate of physicians with whom he Was not confronted at any time. Religious monomania was the al- leged offense. During the entire two years spent in Bloomingdale, as he states, he was not examined or préscribed for by the’ physicians: and on the recent inquiry which resulted in his discharge as sane, the physicians of the asylum did not pretend that there were any evidences ofinsanity except that the condition of the pupil of one eye was variable. During the whole time he had continued to do business as the partner of his brother. These facts certainly show_ cul- pable disregard of the laws on the part of the magistrate who committed him, the physicians who certified to his insanity, and of those doc- tors who had him In charge in what is generally considered a well-condue ted mad house. The case of Samuel Obretght, still later de- clared sane, is quite as remarkable for other reasons which are not creditable to the authori- ties. Obreight, a Jew in religion, had married a Christiaa young woman, and shortly afterward was charged with Insanity, placed in Ludlow street jail and then in an asylum, and his liquor store was taken possession of -by his brother, who took out a lease and Icense in his own name. His case was finally sent toa referee to report on the fact of insanity alleged. Obreight escaped from the sheriff, preferring the cus- tody and society of his wife in New Jersey to that of the sheriff and Ludlow street jail in- mates. A supreme court justice so far agreed with him In this sensible selection of a cus- todian that he protected him and allowed him to return to New York in safety from arrest. Thereupon he did so and took possession of his store again. However, he called upon his mother and frightened her with demands for money, whereupon the Justice issued an order for his rearrest by the sheriff and commitment to the asylum again. He resisted the sheriff's officers, and was taken before a police magis- trate, who locked the man up over night on a charge of assault and battery. It was to be ex- pected that the somewhat eccentric brain of Mr. Obreight would be completely addied before the various justices, referees, sherifts, policemen, lawyers and relatives got through their delicate treatment of his case of mental aberration in consequence of marrying a Christin; but the referee finally decided him sane. The Earl case, in which an elderly maiden lady was recently brought before Justice Haight, had some quite as remarkable features. The lady believed that her brother had designs upon her liberty; that he purposed arresting her on allegations of insanity if she returned to her home to dispose of her property; and she con- fided her feara to a New York lawyer, with instructions to spare no cost or trouble to release her in case she should be seized. She was 80 cautious, according to the sworn state- ment in the case, that in the final transfer of her farm in Greene county she met the pro- posed purchaser in the adjoining county of Albany. While she was transacting this business in fancied security from legal interference, her brother appeared on the scene, accompavied by. the clerks of his lawyer, who, without warrant, selzed her, dragged her into a wagon at the door of the hotel, and took her twenty-three miles across the country and into another coun- ty, where her counsel had no opportunity to communicate with her. Produced in court, she was surrounded by her family, who prevented her lawyer from speaking with her. In the re- turn to the writ the kidnapping was admitted; but the voluntary appearance of the subject of {t, as weil as a desire to pro- tect her against the consequences of her mental weakness, were set up as a Justl- fication. Her counsel suggested that her evi- | dent mental condition made it eminently proper for the justice to order her commitment for a few days in the care of some disinterested per- son, where she would be free from the influ- ences which were being palpably employed by her family to awe and frighten her into com- pllance with their wishes. But the justice, dis- regarding the suggestion, dismissed her, telling her that she was at liberty to go with whom she wished. Her friends carried her off again with- out any inquiry being made into the facts of her seizure and the attachment of her property on suits begun by those who had her in custody. —— ee Vulgarisms. Notes and Queries, It is not only the introduction of vulgarisms into the language that is to be deprecated, but also the quite unnecessary use of such literal translations from the French as the following: “It goes without saying”—cela va sans dire; “The game is not worth the candle"—le jeu ne vaut pas la chandelle. A year or two ago one could not take up a newspaper without meeting with these sayings repeated usque ad nauseam. I wonder what precise sense an ordinary Eng- lishman, unacquainted with French idioms and expressions, attached to them. “Thanks” ig certainly not “new-fangled,” but it has gone aimost entirely out of use in every-day conver- sation, being seldom heard but on the st kc When reintroduced gpme years ago it sounded to old-fashioned ears very affected, especiall when pronounced, as it usually is, in once ist less tone as to imply anything but thankfulness. Icannot subscribe to the dictum that “thank you” is more incorrect than “thanks.” Both are simply parts of sentences in which certain words are omitted for the sae of brevity. ——_<«0» —__ Water Finders. One of those individuals who possess what used to be calledan impossible power of de- tecting water beneath the surface by the turn- ing of a forked witch-hazel or apple-tree twig in his ‘hands when passing over the locality where water was desired has made his appearance on Cape C A Provincetown man saya that the “water finder” Is quite old and nearly blind. “He locates water for well diggers, or pretends to, simply by roving about over the surface with his eyes totally blinded. He pretends to give also about the number of feet below the surface at which the water will be found. It is said that the old water finder isa farmer and a Mme-burner: also, that he has been em) loyed at Beverly and Newport at 8 per day this season, and succeeded in locati water; also, that he led. the presence of metals.” “ASBURY PARK, N.
