asked for check to cover obligations of
plaintiff to defendant.
Defendant related as one "queer''
circumstance that just before the plain
tiff went to Bowuoinham, he went into a

Bowdoinham trip and previous events.
10 a great many questions, witness re-
piled that he could not remember. The
wItnesss could remem ber that his brother
pointed out to him woman without any
head. Witness repeated testimony that
plaintiff, during hack ride with him
self and Mrs. Wiggin, had twice picked
Mrs. Wiggin up and set her down in an
other seat.
Witness told of the trip to Chelsea and
Brookline, which were described in previ-
Gus testimony, but said that the plaintiff
went knowingly and willingly. The
discrimination lasted until IL. 30, At
one time, the witness asked for chair,
which was given him, and just after he
left the stand he broke down altogether
and sobbed like child. He was led
weeping from the room, his mother and
court officer accompanying him. He
soon returned.
The next witness was DIR. Sanborn,
ssof the Maine State asy-
Ium at Augusta, He was asked about the
examination of the plaintiff at Augusta.

ortIand, testified that he went to ho-
tel in Portland where PLAINTIFF and de-
fendant both were. He took Officer Jones

he had authority to take the plaintiff,
but the plaintiff refused to go. He was
then forced, and was taken to the Brook

the Institute. but went to a restaurant on
Cornhin for dinner. He was then taken
to Waverley, to the Mclean asylum. This

than medicine. The plaintiff needed rest
but had no mental trouble. DR.. Gerrish

ly. He appeared quite nervous and
agitated. The doctor came to the concIu-
sion that the plaintiff was nervousIy

would be better for him to be taken to

witness) would not advise that he be

Beers Trying to Surround and Re-
capture the Town.
Bloemfontein, April 5-There are
numerous indications that, In pur-
suance of their boast that they will
recapture Bloemfontein, the Beers are
trying to surround the town and to
cut the British line Of communications
to the south. Large forces are report
ed east and south, which are supposed
to be making for the railway. They
still hold Thaba N'Chu and the water
works.
On his side Lord Roberts is concen-
frating his forces and preparing to
take every advantage of the bold but
risky tatctics of the enemy. He is not
likely to strike at any of their forces
until he is certain of delivering a
crushing blow There is little doubt
that Lord Roberts is hampered by the
necessity for remounts and transports
and the loss of the convoy guns and all
of Col. Broadwood's baggage was a
serious matter The Beers are now
trusting to what they believe to be
their superior mobility.
The latest British blunder occurred
last Saturday, when a British force
under Col. Broadwood, consisting OF
800 men, seven guns and hundred
wagons, with K-fir drivers, walked
into a deep SIT where the Beers
were concealed. Before they could re-
treat they were surrounded and cap
tured, after a short fight. The troops
following the convoy escaped, closely
pursued. The opportune arrival of re-
Inducements saved Col. Broadwood
from humiliation.
The Prince of Teck was in charge
Of the transport, but is safe.

Washington, April 5.-Admiral Dew
ey last night expressed himself as
very much gratified over the manner
i'll which his announcement to be a
candidate for the presidency has been
received by his friends. His manner
likewise indicated that fact as he chat
ted with reporter at his home. Many
kilograms have come to him, par
ticularly from the south, and some also
from the far west, endorsing his course
and stating that he will receive the
support of the signers in the campaign
which he will make The admiral was
in excellent humor and talked inter-
estingly of a number of things in con-
nection with his proposed candidacy.
why is it, Admiral Dewey, that
you have decided to become a candi-
date for the presidency" he was
asked.
Really on that point" he answered,
there is nothing to add to what al
ready has been printed on the subject
If the American people want me to
be their candidate for this high Office

termination to aspire to 1t was in
fluenced by my many friends, who
have written me letters suggesting that
I should be candidate. These COM
munications have came from all over
the country, and 1t was in response to
these suggestions that have taken the
course announced"
Admiral Dewey, when asked to out
line the platform on which he would
run, said:
Presidents do not make platforms;
they are formed by the people. 1 am
