He believes that such an examination will show that he is so constituted mentally that at times he is unable to resist th temptation to steal, and if this is so he wants an operation on his brain to remove the criminal taint. Van Tine said he hoped to be committed to an aby- Mum for the insane, and declared that he would rather die than serve a term in prison, At an asylum, he said, he would be given proper treat- ment. Tf I am sent to jail, Van Tine told the court, it will make a real criminal of me, and then it will be impossible ever to be honest agains How did you happen to get this dea concerning your mental condi- tion? the judge asked.

I recalled my past life remembered that when I was abut 10 years ol 1 had been severely injured in a run away accident. The prisoner said that at that time he was on his way to school, ahd when crossing the street was run down and injured by a team of hors s.

The per- formance was not intended to be for the public, but only for the members of the society and no admission was to be charged Yet the police authori- ties prohibited the performance and. threatened to arrest everybody con nected with the performance. Ap- (peais to the police commissioner were in vain, and th : performance had to be abandoned. The strange part of it is that on that same Sunday night Singing, dancing and burlesue shows were going on at full blast at. the vaudeville houses which were crowd- ed with paying patrons. The mem- berg-of the Stage Society and a great many other persons are somewhat puzzled by the peculiar. attitude of the police authorities and would like to know the reason for this determ- ination. s Mayor Gaynor is coming in for a considerable portion of censure late- ly on account of his evident desire to keep all disclosures concerning the prevalence of vice and immorality in New York hushed up. His ltte tilt with Dr, Parkhurst fs still in statu quo with little prospect of: a finish fight to settle the matter. Mayor Gaynor s not slow, however, in grasping any occasional oppor- tunity to give to his opponent a Iittle dig. The other day some citizen wrote to the Mayor. complaining of thB/noise made by thg striking clock of the Metropolitan tower. In his answer witich. as the Mayor. well knew it would, was promptly pub- lished in the dally papers, Mayor saynor reviewed the points of the complaint and said that he could do nothing i th matter. By way of consolation hgealled the attention of his cerrespondent to the fact that the clock did not make half the noise thot Dr. Parkhirst made, yet, he, the yor, had to bear it SK breach of promise case for 09, which was tried before Justlec fizek and a jury in the Supreme fort came to an abrupt and ra tional ending the other day. The plaintiff, a Mrs, Cauley, who clalmed to be a widow made the usual allega- tions against the defendant, a wealthy truckstet; named David A., Sherard and the jury seemed deeply, impress- ed with her story.
