 An aInsane Knowledge"
 On redirect examination Dr. White said that certain forms of insanity were not incompatible with certain knowledge as to what one might be doing.
 caIledr asked Mir. Deimas.
 Insane knowledge"
 Dr. White said insane knowledge might differ a great deal from sane knowledge. or 1t might differ but little. Dr. Smith Ely Jeliffe. professor at the Columbia University Medical school, and an editor and author of medical topics followed Dr. White on the stand He had at times been an expert for the district attorneys of fee in New York and Washington. He answered in response to Mir. 1@rome's

 That depends on the kind of insan- ity person has,"

 Have you ever examined the defen- dant?" asked Mir. Jerome.
 "No

 "Yes. made a request, but--"
 Here Mir. Delrnas interrupted and the questions and answers were stricken out as not proper cross examination.
 Adjournment was taken with Dr. Jeliffe still on the stand.
 Mir. Delmas said four more experts would be called tomorrow. That will conclude the evidence, 1t Is said, and the arguments should begin wednes- day morning.

NEiwchievous Franks Of Youths Caused
 Men to Fight.
 New York. March ls.--A crowd of mischievous boys were indirectly re- sponsible for the arrest early today of David stanhoff, Jr., of Brooklyn. on a charge of having murdered his friend and next door neighbor, John Hoffman.
 According to stanhoffs' story he was returning home just after midnight when he came upon Hoffman beating two boys in front of his house. Hoff- man was in 9 fearful rage he said and when stanhoff remonstrated the other man turned on him.
 stanhoff declares that he was forced to fight to defend himself, One of his blows knocked Hoffman down and as he fell, his head struck the stone curb, fracturing his skull. He died soon after being taken to a hospital Stan hon was immediately arrested.
 It is said a crowd of boys have been annoying Hoffman for some time and 1t is supposed the two he was beating when Stanhoff interfered were mem bers of the gang whom he had caught.

Haxages of a Pest that Is Hnrdls
 Dreamed of by Mankind.

Dreamed of by Mankind.
 Chicago Chronicle.
 The scores of canaries pigeons and other birds in captivity in this city are victims of the merciiess attacks of mosquitoes during the summer months is the opinion of many bird fanciers and those in a position to know 1t. It is insisted by those owners of the feathered pets that great numbers of birds become weakened and die from the effects of having the life blood sucked from their bodies by insects at night.
 'sIt would be dificult to estimate the number of feathered pets which each year die in this city from the nightly attacks of mosquitoes" said c canary faneier.
 T noticed several years ago that the legs of nay pets were swollen and the skin cracked and sore. Some of the birds had died from some cause that puzzled not only me but some of the best posted bird men in the city. All kinds of remedies were tried. but the birds continued to shrink and drop from their perches dead. IL was sug- gested to me finally that mosduitoes might have been the cause. It at once set to work to remedy the trouble.
 "The cages were covered with a net each night to keep the pests out. and as an extra precaution the legs of the birds were dipped in pennyroyal. red cedar and other oils that are known to be objectionable to the mosquito. The effect was really magical In less than a week the birds began to sing. were active and began to show signs of re- rewed health. My cages are now cover ed ana will remain so until the last mosquito has taken its departure"
 Mfr. Graham was asked if he thought the insects could bite through the feathers of the canary.
 with perfect ease" was the answer. Tt is a we'll, known fact that all birds when asleep during the hot weather open their feathers to allow the free circulation of air This makes 1t easy for the ionRbilled mosquito to get in It's deadly work
 There is no pest that compares with the mosquito so far as the injury to captive birds is concerned" said am other canary fancier. T have never tried the use of oils or other prevent. Ives on the birds, the net over their cages having met every requirement. of the case and being the remedy att tended with the least trouble.
 whenever birds begin to droop and die in the summer without any appar- ent cause you may rest assured that  some remedy must be promptly applied or it will be too late"
 A man who owns one of the finest lofts of thoroughbred carrier pigeons in the city said that the mosquito snR- gestion gave q satisfactory solution to a trouble that has for years puzzled owners or captive birds in this city.
 T have known whole lofts of fine birds to become puny and to actually Nlf- kvss able to assign any reasonable cause for the trouble. The suggestion of the re- sponsibility of the winged Insect as the cause is a perfectly rational answer to. the puzzle. have no doubt in the world that the attacks of the insects are responsible for the death of scores of pet birds in this city each year. Young pigeons are. have no doubt, very susceptible to the poisonous bites"
