Eastern Counties Institution for Idiots: Sir, During this month collections are being made for the above charity … … On the 2nd of May, Mrs. Pinsent, one of the members of the Royal Commission for the Feeble-minded, spent four hours at the Institution, and made the following entry in the visitors’ book: “I have been all over the Institution, and have been very much pleased with everything I have seen. If one thing can be singled out where everything is so good, I feel it is the care and attention given to the low-grade cases. I think the Institution can hold its own with any I have seen both in England and America.” —Yours, etc., ANNA W. WELLS.

Newton Abbot: … … Another instance of the extreme danger of the open leat at Newton occurred on Thursday, when the five-year-old son Mr. E. Mallett narrowly escaped drowning. The child was playing on the steps by the leat, near Pinsent’s brewery, and whilst a traction engine was passing, fell into the water. An alarm was immediately raised, for with the leat running fairly swiftly, the child disappeared between the houses. Further down, however, the child was recovered, being then unconscious. After artificial respiration had been successfully resorted to, he was taken to his home.
