APirrrIT. . tana. PAROLE FOR MILDLY INSANE 'Cjitem in Voflue tt the State HcupiUl Works for Good. KNEFITS BOTH STATE AND PATIENT Pernonn Who e Dormisre-ment Slight 8 B Name for XlnHy er fjoncer One Case at Abase. LINCOLN , April 16 , ( Special. ) The parole jr tem at the Hospital for the Insane , whereby convalescent or mild patients mar bo rent out of the Inatltutlon and placed In the care of friends , bai proven to be a wise provision In the regulation of the hospital , not only making more room for new pa tients , but lessening the expense on those who am afflicted with only a mild form of Insanity. After a medical report Is made by the physicians , the state board Inquires Into the case and Allows the patient to be paroled with tome responsible ) party , usually rela tive , for the period of ninety days , the state during this time being relieved of all ex- pease * . At the end of the ninety days the patient may be returned to the hospital If the derangement Is mieh as to make him un manageable or unsafe to be left unrestrained. If no application Is made for a return to the Institution , however , a final discharge bi given. When patients are brought back at the end of the parole term the expense rnuU bo paid by the outside parties up to the tlmo that the patient Is received back Into the Institution. The release of pa tients on parole before final discharges are made often hau a good effect In bringing bout a complete cure. But there are Instances where the parole system Is abused. Ono baa Just come to the attention of the management of the asylum , which required prompt action. The case Is that of a Swede girl who lived In county In the central part of the Plate. She became mentally deranged , but only In a mild form. After being confined In the asylum a few months she was paroled to her brother-in-law , a farmer living In the sumo neighborhood from which she was sent The man gave good references to the boaid. and seemed anxious for the future welfare of the girl. Nothing further was heard from the case until a few days ago when com' plaint was made to Superintendent Abbot' ' that the girl was not receiving good treat ment. People In the neighborhood said she wao abused , forced to work In the fields llko a man , and was not allowed to leave the place on any excuse. Dr. Abbott In quired Into the matter , found out that the reports of Ill-treatment were true , and to day telegraphed the authorities of the county to Immediately take the girl away from the custody of the brothcr-ln-law and pro Tldo for her until further arrangements coulc to made. The letters received by Dr. Ah bott in response to Tils Inquiry showed tha. the brother-in-law had secured the parole of the girl in order that he might havi her take the place of a hired hand on thi farm.

[ OMAHA WINS IN A DDST STORM O'Brlea'i Arny Tiotor'.oni ii lU First Bet Engagement. UNIVERSITY BOYS NOT STRONG ENOUGH Dlsnarretable Circumstance * S rronn t the Contrt Mnklna ; Good Work an Ktthrr fllde Imnosslble Hnrd lllttlnc nnd Loose Pteldlnv. LINCOLN , April ! . ( Special. ) The ball game this afternoon between the Omaha and University of Nebractaa teams was played under advetse circumstances , o hard south wind making It difficult for the pitchers to do good work , while a great deal ot the terrific batting was duo to the help ot the wind. The work In the game should not be taken ae a sample of what either team can do , as there Is no doubt that favorable weather would have permitted good playing on both sides. As It was , the game was alow and at times positively dreary. The work ot the new Omaha team was watched with much interest , and the opin ion of the spectators was a favorable one. The field work waa good wtenever the wind' and dust permitted , and the throwing was good at all times. The men showed up well at the bat , Griffin piobably being the favor ite with the crowd on account of his ability to hit every ball that came within reach. Roat also did extra good work with the ftlck. Turner pitched the first half of the game , and while be sometimes bad difficulty In getting the ball over the plate at crit ical times , still ho held the university boyo down faltly well. Hagerman went In the box for the last four Innings , and his swift delivery made It very difficult for the uni versities to connect with the ball. The opin ion of the crowd freely expressed Is that Hagerman Is a "crackerjack. " The unlvert'lty team did some good batting , but the team work was not always good , and a number of costly errors were made. Oordon was In the box , and while he had good con trol of the ball , the Omahas had little dif ficulty In hitting. A little more organized work and plenty of practice for the university team , and It would have made a better showing. The game opened with Omaha at the bat. Griffin accepted the first ball that was thrown and made a three-bagger , and Immediately afterward scored on 'McKlnney's ' base hit. Camp flew out to Reeder and 'McKlnney got caught In tbe double play at eecond. Me- Klbben struck out. In the first Inning the university team started with good luck on account ot the three-bagger by Wells and the grounder which netted Bliss a homo run , although McKlnney could bave stopped the ball If a cloud of dust had not prevented. After the first two or three Innings the crowd lost In terest in the game , on account of the dust storm. The attendance was about 600.

Schuman of the Omaha Base Ball club came In from Chicago yes terday aod will remain long enough to attend to some business details that require his attention. He tays that Barnett will certainly be here Monday. He sent McAuley hla transportation several days ago and he will be here early in the week. President Schuman says that the information that was given out the otner day to tbe effect that Hemming has signed an Omaha contract' waa due to a misunderstanding and it now looks as though Hemming would not play In Omaha. We are pretty well fixed for pltch- cro without him , however , and the manage ment IB now negotiating with two or three strong player * who will very likely be an nounced within a few days. President Schuman expressed much regret that he had been unable to get the entire team on the ground earlier In the season. The failure to do so was due to the numer ous difficulties encountered , and which could not be disposed of sooner. First , the loss ot Tucker left the management In the lurch , and then a lot ot time was wasted in the futile attempt to get George Decker. Finally thla plan also had to be given up , and by that time It was well toward the opening of the season. He expressed the'oplnlon , how ever , that Fisher will make a very satisfac tory captain , and 4hat the Omaha people will be pleased with the work of the team. "We want to play winning ball right along , " added President Schuman , "and If. the team is not strong enough , we will make It stronger. We have two or three good men on the string now , and although we think we have a team that will keep its end up , we don't propose to atop there , but 'will strengthen It as often as we bave the op portunity.

The opening day In Baltimore for the national game was all that could be wished for as far as weather was concerned and 6,518 persons passed t'ne turnstiles to witness the contest between the Orioles and Senators. MeJames pitched masterful ball for Baltimore and had he been given proper support would have shut out the visitors.

Weyhlng was easy In the first two Innings and off nine hits for a total of ten bases the home team garnered six runs. After this disastrous opening Vie settled down and Jie and the team behind him played winning ball In * the field. Doyle injured his hand sliding In the first Inning after having been presented with a diamond ring by his for mer associates and retired In favor of Far- rell. There was an entire absence of wrangling and " " "kicking" throughout the game. Score : WASHINGTON. JUI.O.A.E. , R H.O.A.D. Mcilraw. 3bl 1 1 l l Mbach.

Wbat will probably go down In history aa one of the most remarkable target controls of modern times was pulled off at the Coun cil Bluffs grounds Friday afternoon , the contestants being Frank Carmlcbael , Clark | Redlck and Seth Drake ot this city. The race was for tbe price of the birds and the championship of the United States and sev eral other states , and by the terms ot tbe mated Carmlchael was to kill aa m ny birds with hla two barrels as his competitors could wltb their double battery. The result was a , . dazzling victory for Carmlchael , wtoo killed forty-B3vcn birds out ot fifty , while Redlck and Drake were only able to grata forty-four out of their 100. That this was a backset for ttie bookmakers goes without saying. Mr. Redlck Is one ot the best shots that ever happened , and It ts understood that the only reason he didn't tfaoot better on this ocean Ion was that he waa afraid that If he ttiowed bis real form the- governor would wont to send him to Cuba at the head ot a regiment ot sharp shooters. Drake Is also considered ouo ot the beet crackerjacks that ever came down an alley , but ho said that be was not shootIng - Ing the beet , which was undoubtedly the reason wtiy be didn't kill oftener.

Judge Anthony will ittien instruct the Jury and the argu ments will be heard. Toe case will go to the jury Mtoday night. Thla morning John Joyce's 8-year-o'd daughter , Aggie , told of an occasion In April , 1896 , when Joyce , returning 4o town In the evening from his farm , found Montgomery k > bis home with bis wife. He ordered him to .leave , according to the witness , and the latter drew his revolver , ewore that tie would not be Insulted and , while threaten ing to kill the Irate husband , backed out of tbe house , * door convenient for bis egress having been kindly oprakd by Mrs. Joyce. Cora , Joyce's 11-year-old daughter , testi fied that on the night of the 4th of July , 1897 , Montgomery came ( o the house , called In a low tone to Mr. Joyce , wbo WM stain ? in * window up stalro , and told her that ho had brought a bottle of chloroform , which he bad left on a dowo-etalrs window sill , and itold her to pour It on Joyce's pillow. The girl swore the was in the room with Mrs. Joyce when Montgomery came , but did not tell of the conversation until after the killing of Montgomery , because she was Intimidated by tier mother. Joyce was at the time deeping In a room down otalrs. Mrs. Joyce did not attempt to carry out the Instructtcno given by her paramour , ac cording to the witness. The wltnws stated also 'that ' Montgomery had frequently been at their home , but that she bad never told her father , because Montgomery bad shown btr his revolver ' and threatened to kill ber If she did , Both , thcoe witnesses and. a nwnbar ? of othera , who were called to corroboratstlMssj. . testified that to December 14 , just a wek before the day Of the homicide , Montgomery drove up la a buggy In front of the Joyce residence and called for Mrs. Joyce to come out.

He waa restrained by nls daughter and cto- In-law. Montgomery , bearing tbe commo tion In tbe house , drew bis revolver and holding tt In hia band continued to con verse with the woman , a ehort time after which be drove away , i Twenty-three wiitnecscs were called to tes tify concertCng Joyce's and Montgomery's reputations. Their evidence tended 'to ' show that Montgomery was turbulent and violent and given to making gun plays on slight provocation , while Joyce waa peaceable and Inoffensive to tbe point of timidity , a word which wast used frequently. by the President.
