There We're some features of the
case l would have liked them to touch
upon" Rrainerd added. They didn't
seem to go into much of anything ex-
cept the insanity business
1t was explained to Brainerd that Il
plea of insanity having been set up.
the whole line of defence had to bear
on that subject.
Yes. | suppose So he replied. but
can't a man have delusions at times
and then get entirely over them? Why
when | was III the asylum ut Augusta
l saw men who are perfectly clear
headed at times and as crazy as Il loon
at other times. one fellow in particu-
lar goes crazy every spring. they told
me. He gets over it and gets Well, hut
the next spring he goes off the handle
again. There are others who at times
are all right and are able to get a pa
role and go over into the city
Speaking again of the trial the pris-
oner said: Il don't doubt that | did
the real shooting. but | can't remember
about it. 1t Was Just as | told the doe
tors. somebody seemed 10 be getting
me into a corner and / was so pressed
down that | here went all To smash
There was some sort of a twist in it,

that no matter how long | live | shall
never change my view of that matter
No one can make me believe that | was
in my senses when that thing occurred.
1t was all haze. No matter what the
doctors may think about it, They seem
to think that what | saw and heard
ana the pressure against me were ali

is, today. as that | am standing here"
Again he spoke of his South Ameri-
can trouble. and Of his getting into bad
company. Il don't know but it would
have been better if that woman story
had been gone into a little deeper. 1t
would have shown some things. for in
stance that l had very little to do
with enptying those two dozen whis-
key bottles that Mrs Reed, the board
ing house keeper, testified about But
then. | guess for my family's sake it
was better to let that part of the story
alone"
Brainerd discussed some points of
the testimony in the case. He laughed
about the testimony Of Proprietor

That was the funny testimony. about

said the prisoner. Il never was in that

him until he went on to the stand
Brainerd expressed a desire to see q

the papers. AS a parting word, he
said: II shall be glad to see any Of ny

CHINA, AWAKENING,
MAY BECOME A MENACE

son to congratulate herself not only in
getting out of it so we'll but in getting
out of it in a way which, by dint of
management, can be turned into tri-
umph. Better immeasurably for China
to agree to the dictatiOn of the allies
and give her obligation to pay the four
hundred and fifty millions. Had she
refused. her ACKNOWLEDGMENT would have
been certain and speedy. BY aCquiesc-
ing she has taken away the excuse the
allies had for holding onto her terri
tory. Now they are bound in honor to
get out, and that means largely the
continuing of autonomy; and if her au-
tonomy is continued to her, in the end
China will rise. That the empire is now
to be developed on new and progress
i've lines is generally conceded. Taught
by bitter experience her statesmen will
now introduce modern improvements
and make herself powerful. Little by
little, in less than half a century, per-
haps, the unwiedy, double jointed
giant now floundering in the ditch will
be on her legs on solid ground, and then
the nations will hear from her What
China has to apprehend just now is an
attempt to fetter and battle her in an
efficient military organization-such as
the destruction of her forts, the prohibit
tion on military supplies and kindred
features The discussion of such facts.
with the various treaty readjustments
anticipated, are now just ahead and
will add to the embarrassments of her
statesmen, but with autonomy secured
she will come out right
All this does not mean that Chinese
autonomy Is a desire of all the nations
that are now dealing with her. Neither
Russia nor France are satisfied to see
her exist in independence. And we are
not convinced that at heart the Kaiser
is much better. 1t Is the best thing
to do" just now automatically to ex-
press a desire for the integrity of Chi
ma. But for the United States. England
and Japan there would be no such talk.
But for these three powers China would
have been on the choppIng block before
this.
1t remains for us now to watch the
moves on the international chessboard
Stirring times are ahead.
