Du Bots was appointed janitor prior to consoltda-
tion by Civil Justice Jacob Neu. and drew pay for
one year, at the rate of $500 He has not received
cent from the city since then, but has continued
TO perform the duties Of janitor. President Swan
strom of Brooklyn, recently gave him final notice
TO leave, but Du Bos defed him. Mr.. Swanstrom
then brought action in the name of the city, and
obtained an order to show cause why he should not
be put out.
Before Judge Asphalt, in the County Court,
Brooklyn, ex-Justice Neu urged, in behalf Of pu
Bots that the citys lease of the court building did
not cover the rooms occupied by him, but only the
courtroom proper. Yesterday Judge Asphalt de-
cided against Du Bots. saying he occupied the
premises in question without legal authority or
title. The testimony of Joseph D. Willis, the owner
of the building. showed that the city leased and
paid rent for the second and third floors. Judge
Aspinal gave Judgment directing the removal OF
Du Bots from the possession of the premises, and
directed that order be entered accordingly.

MOB SPIRIT IN AMERICA.
Discussion at Chautauqua-Dr. Frost Talks
of Kentucky Feuds.

Buffalo. Aug. l0.-This week at the Chautauqua
Assembly viii be given over to discussion Of the
apparent rise of the mob spirit in America. All
phases of the sUbject-feuds, riots, lynchings
and strikes-wiI be treated. To-day the mountain
feuds were taken up.
Dr.. ". G. Frost, president of Berea College in
the mountains Of Kentucky, said the absence of
rectraint the sole Of the feud. The
mountaineers of Appalachian America were the
descendants Of Colonials not to be confused with
poor whites. They were Southerners. who owned
land, but not slaves. and who were loyal to the
flag in the Civil War. He added:
The feqd area has greatly contracted in recent
times. Many killings caused by whiskey or sudden
anger are classed by newspapers with feud muir
ders. Such is not true.
The case in Breathitt County is a political one
outbreak unusual. and not to be classed with
ordinary feuds. As the death of Hamilton was the
occasion of a great sermon by DR.. Knott which
practically ended the duel in America so We NAV
hope the storm of opposition aroused by the death
OF Marcum may bring us near the end of political
assassinations in Kentucky. The cure for the feud
is education.
Tomorrow the Iynching problems and race
troubles in the South will be discussed John TEN
pie Graves, OF Atlanta, win be the chief speaker

of Insanity Proceedings.

WAS IN AN ASYLUM FOR A YEAR.
In an action for $4,000 damages instituted
against him by his brother. Franklin J. Bischoff-
a lawyer. living in westchester County, Justice
Henry Bischoff, of the Supreme Court, has been
made defendant The suit has been brought
on account of proceedings taken by Justice
Bischoff in 1895. under which the plaintiff was
adjudged insane and sent TO an asylum where
he remained imprisoned from September ~,
1896 to November % 1897.
These proceedings. having been reviewed by
the Appellate Division Of the Second Depart
ment, were recently reversed, and the plaintiff
resumed the practice Of law.
Before Justice Cochrane, yesterday, in the
Supreme Court, Brooklyn, the matter came up
on a motion for an order to make more definite
and complete whether the action brought
against Justice Bischoff for $4,000 damages
was for malicious prosecution or false i'm
prisonment. or both. A motion also made
that the place of trial be changed from West
chester County to New-York County, on the
ground that the plaintiff lived in the latter
county Both motions were opposed by coun-
sci for the plaintiff. He said the cause of the
action was for the unlawful act of the de-
PENDANT in having the plaintiff declared to be
insane and thereby inf1icting upon him all the
bitter consequences which flow from such an
act. of which the deprivation of liberty was not
by any means all"
Justice Cochrane took the papers and reserved
his decision.
At his home last night Justice bischof said:
II don't consider the case one Of Importance
to myself. / am very sorry for my brother. l
don't see that there is anything else can say
