jerome Is Hit Again.

The most important feature OF the
days proceedings was the decision CT
the commission to limit the scope ~
is inquiry to the exact language Of
the statute-to determine solely the
question as to whether or not Harry
ThaW is able today to understand the
nature Of the court proceedings against
him, and is able to advise his counsel
in a rational manner. District Attor
ney jerome wanted to have his TX.
Derts testify before the commission,
but that body declined, saying that the
purpose of the inquiry was q very sim
pie one and had to do not with any
classification of mental diseases. but
with the prisoners present state Of
mind as judged by laymen.
Confronted with His Own Idea.
In laying down this decision the
commission confronted the district a.
tCrney with the very position he has
maintained in putting Thaw on trial
for his life. Jerome contends that
ThaW was suffering from pManOia on
the night Of June % last when he shot
ard killed Stanford White, but added
that paranoiacs often have knowledge
Of what they are doing, and that Thaw
knew the nature and quality of his act
in killing White and knew that the
act was wrong. Thus while medical
experts may determine today that
TLaw is still suffering from paranora
the question to which the lunacy com
mission has decided to cOnfine itself
deals solely with Thaw's knowledge as
to tho proceedings against him ami
his ability to advise his lawyers.

 What O fortunate provision of nature It is, that deprives the rose of mental suffering; for how poignant would be It's grief to discover. in the height of its blooming glory, that Q canker fed at its heart, and that It's beauty and fragrance were doomed forever. Nature always spares the suffering; she Is a veritable store-house of pleasing rewards, for those who seek her aid. In the years gone by failing hair and grayness have cast O gloom over the lives of thousands of young women. but thanks to the in- vestJgations of scientists the true cause of hair destruction is now known to be q germ or parasite that burrows into the hair follicles.
