HERE'S a JIU-JlTsU TRICK.
One Known to Policemen, and They
Call 1t the Crazy Grip.

one Known to Policemen, and They
Call 1t the Crazy Grip.
New Yory SUM- saw in the paper
a day or two ago" said an old mem,
Der of the Schenectady police force.
IAN assertion by Professor Charles
willard Of Baltimore that any man
who is able to box skillfully can sue.
cessfully stand off any exponent OF
iiu-iitsu.
well, he may be correct dom
pretend to be an expert in in jiu-jitsu
by any means. All that ] know OF
the system is one or two little tricks.
One of these is a trick pretty well
known to policemen generally.
1T is commonly known among the
police as the crazy grip, probably from
the fact that it is in gene. n use in
asylums for the insane where pa
tie2ts who become violent have to be
handled and subdued without injuring
them or permitting them to injure the
attendant 1t Is harmless, but mighty
effective, and if Professor Willard
will permit anyone TO try it on him he
will readily be convinced that ne is
pOwerless, even with one arm Tree.
Il have completely sllbdued many
any obstreperous prisoner by using
this simple little grip. This is all
there is to it, and anybody can soon
convince himself of its efficacy
And to illustrate, the policeman
seized hold of the Sun correspondent s
left arm with one hand at the elbow
and the other just at the knuckles OF
the hand. He bent the hand down
at The wrist. at the same time slightly
raising the elbow, keeping a firm hold
of both.
Professor Willard says that when
man is seized by one arm he still
has the free arm wi which to strik5
or shoot" continued the policeman
We'll, YOUR right arm is free Try tt
strike me with it. or. if you happei
to have a gun, you may shoot me-ii
you can. Try it,"
It was tried, but the policeman put
a slight additional pressure on the
imprisoned arm and the attempt was
abandoned mighty quickly. 1t was a
physical impossibility, as anyone may
see ny trying the trick.
Once man gets that hold on an
other, provided he has sufficient
strength to retain his grip. the one
thus seized is wholly at his mercy.
Give me that grip on Professor
Willard" said the bluecoat. smiling
grimly, land If he can use his free
hand to strike me- he's at perfect lib
eTty to punch my head off and I will
make him a present of my months
salary in the bargain if he does it."

state of repair, or to MAINTAIN the
equipment of the departments because
of the lack of fam Is for apparatus,
books. etc. The rapid increase in the
number of students has made neces-
sary a considerable increase in the
Institutional force which, however,
is still inadequate
President Van Hise took up in detail
the specific reeds of the several col
leges. In the college of letters and
science in which there was an increase
of nearly 25o students, it is neces sary
to provide for the extension and inn
provement Of the pre-medical work;
to fill the vacancy in the DEPARTMENT
Of philosophy and education; have
sociology, and history; and 70 de-
velop the graduate school in order
TO carry On important research work
that in the past has led to valuable
results. Adequate provision should
be made, President Van Hise ex-
planned, for equipping the new chemi-
cal laboratory now in course of
construction; for the completion of
university hall, BIZ the erection of the
north wing to relieve the overcrowded
condition of that building: and for
the erection of a new science build
ing, owing to the overcrowded condi-
ton in science hall.

Lord Dufferin's wit and gallantry
were frequently in evidence. At a din.

extraordinary feat of a man who
Jumped twenty-one feet. Some OF
those present seemed to be incredu-

that he himself ad leaped fifteen feet.
THAT is as far" said another guest,
as the end Of the table is from Miss

so, sir" responded the gallant peer
with bow, "and if Miss Blank were
at the other end of the table ! could

creations which so often rouse the
envy of other society women. The

with selecting the mat rial or the man

Stillman knows no limitations as to

agant and usually gets full value for
her money.

witchcraft In EnrIand.

A woman Of Scarborough, England,
charged a short time ago with cruelty
neglectng her children, believed that
her victims had been bewitched by an
evilly disposed neighbor. Superstition
and credulity are still prevalent in Eng
land. Last year London coroner had
before him a man and woman who,
with their six children, slept in one
room, about which several live rabbits
were running. The adults believed
that the presence Of the animals was a
safeguard against rheumatism. Not
long ago Fulbourn (Cambridgeshire)
man was fined for having kept his
horses without food and having given
them a broth" Of water, parings of
boots, nails. needles and pins. This
was the dose which a. 'wise man" had
advised to remove the spell which was
believed to have been cast over the
horses by a witch. At about the same
time It came out in a trial that an old
lady had paid a witch $500 for DOW
der the burning of which would bring
her q great fortune.

the most remarkable Of the mental cal

history Of the curious. Buxton was
born in 17O7 at Elmerton, in Derbyshire
where his father was schoolmaster.
Notwithstanding his fathers profess
sion, Jebediah's education was neglect
cd. He was not even taught to write.
It was not until he had arrived at
mans estate that he showed any apt
tude for mental arithmetic. Once In

mind developed with amazing rapidly.
He had q remarkable memory, and
while in the midst OF problem he
could desist and resume the operation
again where he had left OF, even II It
were year after. A remarkable thing
about the man was that he would al
low two persons to propose different
problems at the same time, and he
would answer each without the least
confusion. He could also talk freely
while working ont his problems. Bux-
