SHE WAS RUDE.
Lille Will Have to Explain Her Conduct
to Judge Sullivan.

Lille Edwards was real rude to her
friend, Gertie Williams, yesterday, and
as a consequence will have to answer
to Jolice Judge Sullivan for the con-
duct. Gertie appeared before Judge
Sullivan and asked for a warrant for
Lilies arrest. She said they both lived
at the Maull block in West Park street
and yesterday Lille came to her room
and accused her (Gertie) of knock
ing her with Ner fellow. Lille was
said to have talked just awful and to
have been real mean, and when Gertie
called her a very bad name, as she
confessed she did, Lille actually struck
her with a steel knuckle. Gertie said
she was never so surprised in her life,
as she supposed Lille would fight
like a woman" and not stoop to such
a thing as using knuckles. A warrant
for assault was issued.

may be perfectly sane on all subjects
but one.
ut often takes the form of doubt
as to the chastity of the mans wife?"
said Mr.. Harvey, interrogatively.
Yes, sir"
Referring to DR.. Crothers' article in
a medical journal in 1893 treating of
alcoholic trance. Mr.. Harvey asked the
witness to describe the condition of
subject in such a trance. The witness
went into an oral discourse on the sub
ject. There Is a recurring cons eli us
ness, but memory does not return in
many cases. AS to the immediate eff
fects of small quantities of alcohol on
some systems witness stated that in
his institution they often make tests of
such cases. Subjects are given alco-
holic stimulants to produce what he
termed borrowed strength" These
periods of apparent nationality are only
brief, however, which gees to show that
man suffering from a prolonged
drunken spree may be aroused to a
temporary state of reasoning by an in
ternal application of alcohol.
1.-THE use of alcohol may be symp-
tom of insanity and it is one cause of
insanity" said the witness. THE de-
sire for alcohol is also a symptom as
well as cause. In the early stage,
before the system is broken down, the
disease is durable, but not after he
becomes dement,. Once having termi-
mated in dementa there is no going
back, no reclamation. Yet. the craze
for drink is often durable, and there is
chance for redemption.
The witness stated that il would be
impossible for him to tell when Larkin
first became incapable of attending to
important business affairs, from what
he knew OF the case, as presented by
the testimony. But the strong proba-
bilities are that his mental condit on
became impaired five or ten years b.
fore he was adjudged. The incapacity
began with the use of alcoholic drinks
first slight and gradually becoming
worse. The doctor stated that a drink
ing man is feeble, and usually a drink
ing man is unsound mentally. The rule
is that a state of drunkenness is an
| injury to the brain.
Mr.. Harvey asked the witness if he
thought the test on a dogs brain af-
fected by alcoholism was fair test
of the influence of alcohol on the rea-
soning power. and the witness replied
that it was generally thought to be.
IF a man is capable of discus sing
events of the day from cause to effect,
he is not irresponsible for his acts?'
That's another question. Sometimes
maniac can talk and does talk in
diligently"
Recurring to Larkin's talks on silver
six years ago, Mr.. Harvey asked if Lar
kin could have been a dement, then.
"Oh, yes, he might have only been
repeating what he had heard" an
swered the witness.
1t was stipulated by all concerned
that the doctors testimony be tran
scribed and forwarded to Hartford,
Conn, for his verification and sig "a
ture. The doctor left last evening for
the East. Adjourned till 20 o'clock this
morning.

BABY CARRIED IN A VALISE.
The Queer Baggage of an Elderly
Male Passenger ON an Iowa
Railway.

Carrying a baby In a grip is a new
wrinkle on me-" remarked an oldtime
palace car conductor at Chicago hotel
the other night. 1T was away out in
western Iowa." he continued, that the
incident am about to relate happened.
I had two porters in my car. One was
the regular porter, who is familiar with
the travelling public, and the other
darby was just being broken in. He
was on the first run and wanted to
catch on to the business. Well, sonre-
where west of Marshalltown an elderly
man climbed on the sleeper. He had
two grips, one fat one, the other a
mere hand grip. He remarked to the
porter to handle the grips very careful
ly and to keep them upright.
"The man went into the smoking
apartment and ordered his grips placed
in his berth. 1t SO happened that the
can never understand how it happened
that there wasn't a tragedy on that
car, for he took the fat grip and gave
it a big toss, landing it up to the top
berth. There wasn't a sound.
pretty soon the man came out OF
the smoker and proceeded to retire. He
made considerable fuss about the rough
way in which his grips had been han
died and the finding of the large one
upstairs. In the night some time a
baby's voice was heard. The little one
cried several times, but always quoted
down. The sound was traced to the
berth Of the man who had been fussy
about his grips. Next morning he did
not get up and remained in the berth
until the train reached Chicago.
"When he left the car the big grip
was as heavy as ever and the porter
received the same precautions about
careful handling. | managed to get
around in front of him and asked him
if the baby was al right. He looked
little puzzled and then answered in
the most Indifferent way that it was all
right, but had spent rather restless
night. He said he always carried it in
the grip to avoid appearance, taking
along several bottles of milk when on
long trip"

MUST KNOW HIS GUN.
Man Can't Pick Up an Unknown
Rife and Shoot with Any
Accuracy.

"No two high-power, small-caliber
rifles carry alike" said one of the best
amateur shots of this section, reports
the New Orleans Times-Democrat. 1T
seems to be impossible to get them ex-
actly uniform, and the consequence is
that it is necessary for a man to get
thoroughly acquainted with his weapon
before he can make anything like de-
cent score. I was out with few friends
the other day, and we tried three new
small-caliber sporting rifes-the larg-
est about 81. The difference in the
drift or tendency of the bullet to go
either to the right or the left of the tar
get, was something remarkable. Then,
again, they seem to act very arbitrarily
under differentiated charges of pow
der, and until one finds out by actual
experience there is no telling exactly
what they are going to do. l do not re-
gard this as a serious objection to the
arm, but merely as proving that it is
necessary, as I said before, for every
man to make a close study of his own
particular gun. When you become ia
miliar with its eccentricities and make
your calculations accordingly they cut
no special figure in results. This fact
renders enough practice absolutely
essential with new troops who carry the
krag-jorgensen. The time has gone by
when a soldier can pick up any old gun
and shoot as we'll with it as the next
fellow. Under the new order of things
two troopers may pull down on exactly
the same spot and kill couple of Fill
pinos three yards apart. To perform
such feat each fellow must know the
direction OF the drift of the 'krag' he
happens to be using. BY the way, there
is good deal just at present for in
ventors in the line of compromising
sights, which will mechanically adjust
such differences as [ have mentioned"

WHY THE SAILORS WENT DRY.
Their Tub-Loving Captain Had to
Have His Fresh-Water Bath
Every Morning.

Louis, an old sea dog from Austria,
who has sailed the briny deep from
Baffin's bay to No Mans Land, enjoys
comparing his present position in the
American marine service to that he once
occupied when sailing in an East In
dianman from Liverpool to Calcutta,
says the New York Sun. The vessel had
been becalmed and the water supply
ran short during a terrible hot spell
The crew had to exist on moldy sea bis
cults, while the captain, a big bully of
an Englishman, lived in luxury. The
crew did not object to this until one
day, when every man was almost pros
trated by the heat and lack of sufficient
water, they discovered that the captain,
knowing the sufferings of the men, had
been taking baths daily in fresh water
in a tub in his cabin. Almost an open
mutiny broke out, and a squad of the
tars, headed by Louis, was sent aft to
see the captain about getting some more
drinking water.
He told the captain frankly that they
knew of his taking baths daily in his
cabin in fresh water, and that every in
:stinct of humanity dictated that he
should forego his fresh water baths un-
til he reached port and give the crew
the water which he would otherwise
have used for his additions. The cap
tain became 1fVid with rage at the "au-
.dacity" of the men.
What" he shouted. "You blooming
lubbers want to take away from me me
mornin' tub! Not We, says ]. / cawn't
do without me tub, SO I cawn't, We know
Do we think can give We all the drinkfn'
water We want? Not me, says I. Get
tell out O here"
That evening he gave each man an
extra half pint of water, but he had
fresh water bath each morning, never
theless

ROAST BABY NOT BAD FOOD.
That Is the Verdict of d Sea Captain
Who Attended a South At
rican Banquet.

Queer things to eat and how they
taste had been the topic of converse
ton for half an hour with a little group
of passengers on down east steamship.
The list had gone as far as rats when
the captain joined the party, and he
listened respectfully to the experiences
of those who had numbered cats and
horsefesh in their menu at some period
or other.
What was the worst thing you ever
had to eat, captain?" some one asked
him at last
"Well, I went to sea at 13 years of age,
and for good many years didn't have
much terrapin or canvasback duck, but
that didn't interfere with my growth
to any great extent" and the captain,
who was man of fine physique, drew
himself up to his full six feet. 'But
think I ate one thing that no one else
on this boat has ever tasted, and that
is roast niger baby"
The captain paused while the excla-
nations of horror spent themselves.
"It was in a South African port, and
the natives were not reputed cannibals,
and in many ways they showed evil
dences of much civilization; but they
had semireligious rite that called for
the sacrifice of child at stated inter-
walls. The choice was made by lot, and
the parents were expected not only to
consent unmurmuringly, but to partake
of the feast. By some mischance l got
myself hidden to this ceremony, and I
had broad tip that it would be pru-
dent for me not to refuse. therefore
attended, and so did another white man,
who was, literally and figuratively, in
the same boat with myself.
eyes, we ate some Of the baby. 1t
wasn't so bad, but I've never hankered
after it since"
The captain went back to the bridge
and the drift of the talk turned away
from things to eat.
