Cassimir Labordcric's Dcmentia OF
u Violent Nature.

Cassimir Lahorderie, a mechanical en-
gineer. twenty-four years old, OF l5s
Prince street at 10 this morning was
removed to Bellevue Hospital, afflicted
with acute demCntia. He was at inter-
walls very violent.
Iaborderie lived with his wife on the
first floor of the above number. Three
months ago they emigrated here from
Paris. People in the neghborhood ap-
pearcd to know little OF the couple. but
their impression Is that the young
Fr"nChman ana his wife have been aC-
quainted with much better surroundings
than at present.
The day before Christmas Deputy Cor
oner r. j. Donlin, of sullivan aud Hous-
ton streets. was called to prescribe for
the young FrcnChman, who was suf-
fering from dementia, which appeared to
be the result of some great mental
strain. Medical treatment did not seem
to benefit him. At times the young man
became desperate and frightened his
pretty wife by throwing himself out Of
bed and raving like n demon. but, how
ever, towards Mrs. Laborderie he was
ever tender and kind.
This morning at l.20 DIR. Donlin was
hastily summoned to the house and found
his patient beyond control. The Prince
street police were notified. and the young
man was removed to the hospital In an
ambulance.

The season had been exceedingly dry;
for nearly month not a drop of rain
had fallen, The sand lay in drifts in
the middle OF the road and blew away
from the roots Of the trees. During the
previous weeks great fire had been
raging to the northward. several towns
being RACED to the ground and a wide
stretch OF timber ruined. The ledge Of
rocks referred u ran in crescent and
acted as barrier to the flames, so
that the country over which Mogby pre-

spread its mantle Of gloom over many

quarry which was dug in the side of a
rocky ledge.
After Mosby's departure Jessie went
on with her work indoors with heavy
heart. Her fathers suspicion that the
man Hayes, who had been sojourning
with them. was only a refugee from JUS
tlCe palned her. lie had always been
very obliging about the house, had books
in his saddle-bags and sometimes read
aloud TO her, which was a matter OF rea,
entertainment, and while she did not
care for him she felt extremely sorry for
the trea tment he received at her fathers
hands. She had to confess, however, on
thinking it over, hat it was a queer
place for a man to come whose only oc-
cupatlon was pleasure. The hunting was
poor, the woods damp and gloomy and
the ledge In the distance inhabited mostly
by snakes.
Her father had an idca that some day
an officer of the law would ride into
their little clearing and demand pris:
oner; that a scene would follow, and the
prisoner. escaping, would seek safety in
the slimy caves which penetrated the
sides of the limestone ledge. He even
dreamed about 1t and awoke one night
imbued with the idea thai the house was
surrounded by mounted horsemen. Day
by day his suspicious increased until

love with villain he decided to drive
him away,
