James Lynthcomb and wife, negroes were added to the force of asylum em ployes last Friday. When they were taken to the main building Friday noon and placed at, one of the tables with the attendants who were dining. several attendants walked out of the room. The negroes were then taken to the cottage farm, a part of the Institu tion, where the woman was placed In the dining room .and a position In the engine room was given the man. The man, It Is said, was transferred later to the position of night watchman. When the negroes were received as employes at the cottage farm an Im mediate protest was heard and W. J. Glbbs, one of the attendants, began circulating a remonstrance, which read: "We, the employes of the asylum farm, consider It an Imposition and disgrace to have colored people occu pying the positions that they do and we object most strenuously.
