Alfred Berg is not on speaking
terms with Miss Bertha Surf, aged
IS. still he says that for the past year
she has had him absolutely under her
control and that his every action was
directed by her. Berg was before
jury in the county court this morning
TO have his sanity inquired into. The
jury decided that the Watertown hos
pital was the proper place for him
and Judge Z. f. Parmenter ordered
him committed to that institution.
Berg is 26 years of age. His case
is one OF the most peculiar that has
come to the attention of the county
court in years. He insisted, in ad
dressing the jury, that his mind was
not affected. He said that his health
was good and that his only weakness
was in his heart Placing his hand
over his heart he said, Here is where
am insane"

Miss Surf was at the hearing. She
does not impress one as one possessed
of mental powers in the quantity
spoken of by Berg. If she was it is
not likely she would be earning a liv-
ing working in a grocery store. She
could set the world on fire with her
feats of hypnotism. Miss Sur is en-
ployed at the grocery of \. F. f. Mel
son on Fourth avenue and Twenty
first street. Berg's parents reside in
that neighborhoOd. The other day
Berg told Miss Sur that if she did
not release him that he would xii
