toms OF insanity became 30 strong early last
month that Mrs. Newcomb had her husband
sent to q sanitarium at Central Valley.
The trouble with Mr.. Newcomb according
to the physicians who examined him, arises
from the excessive use OF choral. and one Of

Other symptoms OF this sort OF dementia,
according 20 the physician. as shown in Mr..
Newcomb's case. are a tiemor Of the tongue
and face, Diluted pupils and loss Of memory.
DO you consider rerson in tho habit Of
using chloral an insane person?' the physician
was asked.

thought his wife and relatives were conspiring

ENGLISH YACHTsMEN HOPEFUL.
why They Think the ShRmrock's Chances
Are Good Against the Columbia.

Srscfdl Gable DsiDdtch 10 THE suS.
LONDON. Aug. 5.-Now that the Shamrock is
on her way to America. EnRllshmen are natu-
rally reckoning up her chances pro and con in
the October races. For long time they did
not venture to place the slightest confidence in
the challenger. but now there is a distinct
tnge Of hopefulness apparent some few even
venturing to prophesy victory
Two causes are chiefly responsible for this
change. First. they begin to think that the
Shamrock is a good boat. arguing that her
performances against the Britannia. when
"she was neither run for oil she was worth
nor fully canvased.' point at an underesti-
mate in her superiority Of at least sixteen to
twenty minutes when in proper trim. But the
second reason Is stronger namely, the Column
bias unhappy series OF misfortunes which have
given rise to the idea that too much has been
sacrificed for ightness.
One OF her critics In London letter dubs her
an unlikely boat, and speaks OF "the evident
state Of funk into which the yachtsmen on the
other side are getting" Stress is also laid on
the differences between the crew and skipper
and the continual alterations in the Columbia's
rig and trim.
Many experienced yachtsmen. however, are
not so sanguine. The veteran Sycamore said
yesterday that IL was Of no use to send the
challenger over. and other Cowes men say that
either the Columbia or Defender will be a BILE to
retain the cup. Carter. the Brtannias Cap
tain. says that the trials with tho Britannia
were no criterion OF tho Shamrock's powers
as her racing sails were not sufficiently
stretched and the crew was not used to hand
ling her
