II Charles Zanoli, tho barber Of seven fu-
norals and tho most successful collector Of in
, surance policies on record, isn't on tho verge
of collapse, he is putting up tho best imitation
of breaking down that has been seen in the
Tombs since John Fallon has been Warden.
Those. who know the barber best say that this
ia simply all old fako,that the man has worked
so successfully 30 many times before whom he
was In q tight place that he can weep q bucket
full of tears and look hagRard as easily as most
mon can eat their dinner.
However that may be. Warden Fallon is TAX
ing no chances with his prisoner. He 10 con-
fined in a cell in the hospital ward, not because
he Is Ill, but 80 that ho may be watched day and
night by attendants. Warden Fallon feels that
a man who has attended so many funerals
might conceive the notion of attending his
own. and that the Warden doesn't intend to
permit II he can holp 1t. To be sure. Zanoli
has his own life insured under the namo Of
Charles Braune for $500 In tho Metropolitan
Life Insurance Company, but tho Warden
thinks that Zanoli has bled the company
enough, SO no doesn't intend that the barber
shall commit suicide.

He wouldn't have been a prisoner at all had

This was my wife's wedding ring when she

This statement seemed unimportant and
appeared to have little bearing on the case
when it. was made. Capt. McClMsky ex;
planned its Importance yesterday. He called
attention to the fact that the Identification Of
the body had not. in the opinion of Zanoli's
lawyers, been established beyond a doubt.
When Zanoli, after examining the ring. made
the statement about 1t that he did, Capt. Nc
Clusky said that there could no longer be a
reasonable question as to the identification of
the body.
