EFFECTS OF LA GRirPE.
delusional insanitt caused
and cubed by it.
Male and Female Patients In a Mas
sachusetts Hospital Discharged as
Cured After Having the Influenza.
from the few York 9un.
Boston, April 24.—A new phase of la
grippe’s mysterious influence in just now
interesting the medical profession of Massa
chusetts. Bad as it was in its dreadful work,
it has at the same time wrought what seems
to be a miracle at the state insane hospital
at Westboro. The cases described by Dr.
E. Paiuo, the superintendent of the hos
pital, furnish some of the most singular
phenomena in the study of mental diiorders
and curative virtue of disease upon dise ise.
La grippe swept through the Westboro in
sane hospital just as it did through other
institutions, and while somo succumbed to
its ravages, others, seven in number, not
only recovered health, but reason as well.
This singular result is told by Dr. Paine as
follows:
“One female patient, a case of mania,had
been in the hospital about nine months.
When she became feverish, her excited and
incoherent speech left her and she became
rational. She was discharged on Jan. 27 as
recovered, and I have beard within a few
days that she continues perfectly well. This
was her fifth attack of insanity, the two
preceding attacks having lasted iii oue case
twenty-three and the other sixteen months.
It appears possible that her mental disease
was cured by the influenza, and, moreover,
in about one-half its anticipated duration.
Another female patient, who was very
destructive of clothing, furniture, etc.,
became rational during and after
the fever, and continued so
until her discharge on March 28. She had
remained thirteen months in the hospital,
and we feared she would not recover. In
her case, also, tho disease was acuto mania,
and was recurrent ns in the preceding case.
This was her third at ack of insanity. A
third patient, a woman, was a case of acute
maDia of puerperal origiu, who was violent,
destructive, incoherent and noisy until she
passed into dementia. Tho fever of the
influenza brightened ner mentally and she
continued to improve until she was dis
charged about a week ago to her own
home. Her disease lasted two years
and one mouth in the hospital.
This termination was entirely unex
pected. The fourth female patient was
also a case of acute mama who had passed
into dementia. She could not read or write
or remember much of her past. She was
untidy, and had apparently passed beyond
any hope of recovery. The same natural
action of the mind appeared during and
after the influenza, and now she is tidy, an
swers questions correctly, and is rational in
her conversation. She will probably go to
her home before long. She has been in tho
hospital one year and nice months. It is
noticeable of these four women that ali had
entered the hospital with acute mania, and
that two of them had afterward passed into
dementia. It is remakaule that the last two
were lifted out of their hopeless condition
by anything short of death.
“Let us now consider the men. A male
patient had been in the hospital eight
months, had delusions of suspicion, believed
that his food was poisoned, that poison was
sprinkled on him at right. He heard false
voices and showed no sign of improvement.
After the influenza he lost his delusions and
talked about them as something that had
passed. They have occasionally thrust
tuemselves upon him since his illness, and
ho appears to be no w in a suitable condition
for a trial at home. Another male patient
has been in the hospital about thirteen
months. He was also suspicious, thought
his food was poisoned, had hallucinations of
hearing and also of sight. He often com
plained of a bright phosphorescent
light, which was globular, and which
appeared at night as well 'as
during the day in his room, as well as
out of doors. He has been at ncme about
seven weeks, and continues to do well. The
third and last male patient was a composi
tor iu one of the leading papers, doing night
work. Overwork and drink probably occa
sioned his insanity. He would refuse to
eat, because his "food was poisoned. He
heard voices talking with him constantly,
and was becoming demented. He never
read books or papers, seldom spoke, was
untidy in his habits, and seemed to have
pas-ed beyond any chance of recovery. He
showed decided gain immediately after the
fever, his mind regained its strength, and
he left about four weeks ago entirely well.
He had been in the hospital eleven
months. It is strange that the
three men were all similar in the
character of their disease, having de
lusional insanity, with hallucination
of hearing, which is a form of iusanity gen
erally considered incurable, and from which
only a small proportion recover. While it
is too soon to state positively that all will
remain well, it is certain that five of the
Eeven have left the hospital with as good
prospects of remaining at home and curing
for themselves as in the majority ot patients
discharged. Here, ihen, are seven of the
eighty-six patients attacked by the influ
enza who have recovered, or about 8 per
cent. Much more important, however, is
this conclusion that five of the seven would
never have recovered if the epidemic had
passed off without entering the hospital.
In sharp contrast to the good fortune of
those just mentioned are four persons ad
mitted during the last few weeks whose
insanity is ascribed to influenza. Two of
them were men who have recovered and
gone home. Of the two women, one is still
suffering with acute mania, and is cu-able,
The other came with paraplegia in addition
to acute mania. She is improving and may
recover. In looking hack over the epi
demic one point is worth noticing,
that the employes were more liable
to the disease than tho patients.
The average number of patients
"as 450, of employes and their families 135,
or about 30 per cent. Of the 135 there
were 60 affected, or 41 per cent., an excess of
11 per cent. One of the curious features of
the disease was that delirium was limited
to the young and the employes,for example,
a boy of 5 years, one of 9 years, another of
1", aid a girl of 14; of the employes, a
farmer of 25 years, ad three female nurses,
each one about 23 years of age; or, putting
the same statement in another way, of the
*6 insane having influenza, none were delir
ious.
“One disease causes insanity; another
comes and cures it. Here is a case of in
sanity produced by erysipelas, and driven
out by rheumatism. In December, 1886. an
unmarried woman, 2S years of age, was ad
mitted to the hospital, being transferred
from Danvers. She had been sent to that
hospital in February, 1885, the apparent
cause of insanity being erysipelas. When
she was admitted to the Westboro hospital
jue talked incoherently, and seldom could
oc understood. She was destructive of
clothing, was noisy and violent. She con
tinued in that condition until the middle of
"P r il, 1889, when rheumatism attacked the
knee joint. During the inflammatory stage
her mind became gradually stronger. She
ccame quiet, cleanly, and rational, and
* as disc urged on Aug. 15, 1889. She re
mained well siuce that time. Her recovery
as the result of rheumatism.”
Tricked Into Good Clothes.
There is a member of the House, writes a
ft 3 "’ icrk Tribune correspondent, who,
, ough he is by no means poor, is so eco
nomical that his shnbbiness of clothing is
• cause of humiliation to his two lovely
l- , stylish daughters. One day
J . daughters heard him say he
uid have to buv a now suit prettv sonn,
■ .hev put their heads together and de-
T a wa y to make him buy a good one.
rii ; >. wer very sure he could not be in
alnH* 0 ERt u custom-made suit, so they
.teahouse that handles fine rejdv
fuir G u? r , n n eut 4 an< * picked out a fine #35
fif..,, taking the merchant into their cen
tum s-w * hey to!< * their desire, and paid
--b from thejr own purses, instructing
him to sell the suit to their father f r {9.
Then they went home and told their p rnts
they had seen a splendid suit, worth 515 or
CM, wn:ch they could get for 59. The
father was interested in this bargain aud
went that afternoon with the y nnz ladies
to the store, where he paid the" 59 and took
the suit.
The next morning he came down stairs
in the new clothes and his
daughters were proud of him.
Bat when ho set out from home
he nut ou his old, shiny, greasy overcoat
and spoiled the entire effect.
“Now you need anew overcoat, papa, - ’
said one of the daughters.
“Can’t afford it, girls,” he answered;
“this one has got to last the y >ar out,” and
away he sallied, looking übout as much
like a scarecrow as ever.
The trick had worked well once; why
shouldn't it again ? The young ladies made
another trip to the clothier’s and picked out
a S3O overcoat, on which they paid $22. The
next evening they told their father of an
other bargain, and he, next morning, on
his way to the capitot, stopped;and bought
the coat. In the coat room of the House
he showed his purchase to several brother
members, who admired it and expressed
surprise that he had bought it so cheaply.
One ot the members, whom we will call
Hobson, because that is not his name, needed
such a garment and went immediately to
the clothier, saying he wanted one of tnose
53 overcoats such as his brother member
had pure ased there that morning, where
upon the merchant in turn took him into
his confidence and told him the whole
story.
That evening when the father of the two
loveiv young ladies same home he still wore
his old overcoat,
“Did you go to the tailor’s papa?"’they
asked.” ’
“Yes, dears, I did; and I bought the
overcoat.”
“Where is it?”
“Well, Til tell you. You see, I showed it
to some of the boys at the House and Hob
son liked it so well that he offered mo 512
for it. It ain’t every day day that a man
can make 54 as easily at that, and I sold it
to him.”
BAIL AND CBO3STIS.
The bridges and trestles on the Alabama
Midland railroad have been completed. It
is expected that trains will be running
through by the middle of the month.
It is reported that Drexel, Morgan & Cos.
will presently be appointed fiscal agents for
handling all tho Richmond Terminal securi
ties. This honor was tendered to them onoe
before and declined.
The Lyons branch of the Savannah and
Western railroad will be extended to Col
lins Station to-morrow. Trains will run
out to the now station from now until the
lino is ballasted and prepared for through
business.
Chief Conductor Wright of division No.
218, Order of Railway Conductors, the
delegate from this division to the annual
convention at Rochester, N. Y., this month,
will leave Savannah Thursday for the
north. Several members will also atto.id
the annual convention.
Capt. Payne has completed the survey of
the Hawkinsville and Grovauia extension of
the Empire and Dublin railroad. Three
lines were surveyed, but the route the road
will run has not yet been settled upon. It
is said that work on the extension will be
commenced soon and pushed rapidly to com
pletion.
Application will be made to the governor
and secretarv of state next Wednesday by
W. B. Sparks. J. Lane and G. W. Garten,
for a charter for the Macon and Atlantic
Railway Company, wi.h the right to build
a railroad from Macon to Savannah and a
branch road to a point on the Savannah
river in Effingham county.
General Manager Gabbott looks for an
immense traffie over the Central railroad
this year. Last year was the heaviest the
road ever experienced. The farmers are
putting more land under cultivation, and
the yields from the same territories will be
larger. The rolling stock and car capacity
of the Central rail road is added to largely,
however, and the Central will be ready to
meet the rush.
THE RIVE a AND HARBOR.
Happenings Along'tha Wharves and
Among the Shipping.
The steam tug Cecilia arrived here yes
terday from Coosaw, S. C., having in tow
the schooner Mollie J. Saunders, to load
lumber for Baltimore.
The American Trading Society cleared
yesterday the German bark Betty for
Ferrol, Spain, with 7,435 pieces pitch pine
lumber, measuring 548,154 feet, valued at
57,6C0. Cargo by Roosevelt & Esteve
(limited).
It hai been decided to hold no survey on
the steamship W rn. Crane, which was
towed in by the City of Birmingham, and
the company will have the repairs made
hero at once. John Rourke has the work
in charge.
The dredge Tomochicbi is dredging out a
chanel for F. M. Jones’ new marine rail
way on the opposite side of the river, near
the old dry dock. A sunken wreck which
must have lain there for I‘JO years,or more,
as the wood appears to be very rott9U wa3
struck yesterday. Embedded in the timbers
of the wreck was a grape s lot. The vessel
was evidently oue of the old revolutionaay
crafts that had been iu a scrape. The bolts
with which her timbers were fastened were
of copper, and the sheathing was well pre
served.
Capt. W. J. Thompson entertained sev
eral lady and gentlemen friends of the
champion pilot boat Neca on board the ves
sel, at the toot of Drayton street, yesterday
afternoon. Ice cream and other delicacies
were served. The steamship City of Bir
mingham saluted the Neca as she steamed
down the river on her outward voyage.
The frequent showers of the afternoon pre
vented many ladies from accepting Capt.
Thompson’s invitation. Those who braved
the rains were hospitably entertained by
Capt. and Mrs. Thompson.
FOR GEORGIA FARMERS.
Dooly Vindicator: Caswell S. Wilson,
who lives out nine miles east from Vienna,
has some sheep that he has appropriately
named the “alliance multiplying sheep.”
Mr. Wilson has one ewe only a little over 2
years old that has dropped three lambs in a
little over a year. They came as follows:
The first, Feb. 6, 1889; second, Oct. 17,
1889; third, April 23, 1899.
The South Georgia Melon-Growers’ Asso
ciation convened at Albany Wednesday.
President G. R. McCrea, chairman of the
rate committee, stated that Manager White
head of the Central, and Maj. Owens of the
Plant system, together with 114 roads north
cf the Ohio river, had agreed to accept the
weights as given them by the sworn weigh
ers, appointed by the melon-growers upon
their wagon scales. That qu stion was now
solved and the planters would have to sup
ply themseives with scales at the shipping
points, or subject to the weights as fixed by
the railroad. In regard to ratoson all rail
roads south of the Ohio river they were the
same as last year. ,T. L. Hand stated
that no one line had power to fix
the rates, many roads being interested.
The most excessive rates were west of
the Ohio. The Central associa ion was the
most powerful, the Ohio and Mississippi
being su' sidiarv. He felt much encouraged
in looking for a" reduction north and west.
He advocated the appointment of one com
mission house in each city. A unanimous
vote of thanks was extended to J.W. White
head of the Central railroad and James M.
Brown of the Western and Atlantic rail
road, for first agreeing to take the growers’
weights from their wagon scales. Wooten
& Wooten were appointed attorneys for
the association. Dr. H. I* Watkins, on be
half of the committee on turnouts reported
that the railroad commission bad. decided
adversely to their claim* against the Savan
nah, Florida and Western tor charging a
rental for special ridedracfc.____ <^____
