The fund for the Creche is steadily increasing and it is hoped that the Thanksgiving season will be the occa- sion for many additional contributions to the annual fund. The very cause for which the appeal is made goes right to the heart of every one. 'If there is one charity in Birmingham that will continue despite present hard times,' said Birmingham woman the other day who is interested in several char ities, 'It is the Creche. Other organ izations may find it difficult to raise money at this time, but the Creche-l am sure it will not be made to feel that it's affairs would be more hampered through the cry of hard times. l cer- tainly hope that it's good work will not be handicapped at present, and l am sure that the fund will be fully as large this year as in the past when people were not talking so much about panics," and she made her contribu- tion cheerfully, glad to assist in the dollar fund now being raised.
 Contributions may be left at The Age Herald office, addressed to the so- ciety department.

Mrs. Bradley Affected.

During the reading of the hypoth eti cal question. Mrs. Bradley closed her eyes and bowed her head. breathing heavily at times as if suffering deep emotion. She perceptibly grew more pale and as the reading of the ques- tion referred to her close relations with the late Senator Brown and his de- claration of love for her, she raised her handkerchief to her eyes. Many of the jurors observed her closely but she appeared to be oblivious to every thing about her.
 Counsel for the government objected to having Mrs. Bradley referred to in a part of the question as the patient" and in instances concerning her con finement insisted that the word per son should be used in all such cases.
 During the trial this morning, Repre- sentative Scott of Kansas visited the court room and sat on the right of Judge Sta ford
 Judge Powers read the long docu- , ment with great delibera tion. The or deal was evidentlyevery trying on Mrs. Bradley who occasionally cast her eyes toward the clerk with a weared look on her face. When Judge Powers read that the prisoners health had been fail ing since 1900 counsel for the govern ment objected.
 After testimony of Mrs. Bradley con- firming that statement had been read, Judge Stafford said he would permit , the language to be retained if de- sired.
 When the usual time for the luncheon recess arrived the Hypothetical question was still unfinished. though it's read ing had been proceeding for an hour { and a half, and it was temporarily suspended at 1925.
 After the recess the reading of the Hypothetical question was resumed pr. Barton again taking the stand.

Witness Questioned.

The reading of the hypoth etical ques- tion was concluded at o'clock. Tne witness declared in answer to ques- tions by the defense that at the time the fatal shot was fired Mrs. Bradley did not understand the nature of her act. nor was she able to distinguish right from wrong and that therefore she was not able to choose the right and avoid the wrong.
 ross-examined by District Attorney Baker witness said he was unable to say when Mrs. Bradley's insanity com menced.
 "Will you make any positive state ment as to when her insanity ended?' asked the district attorney.
 'Yes, toxic or puerperal insanity usually lasts anywhere from few weeks to several months"
 "So that if this woman was insane at the time the fatal shot was fired ac- cording to our opinion. she ought to have remained insane for several months?"
 q would not say that the witness replied. Some times they recover in a few weeks and sometimes they last on an average of few menths.
 "At least" inquired Mir Baker, "sh e ought to be insane for a few days or a few weeks?"
 "Yes."
 As these questions were asked, Mrs. Bradley sat up in her chair for d time and followed the testimony with keen interest. Then she relasped into her apparent stupor in which she had been in the most of the day.
 There is in this Hypothetical ques- tion.' said pr. Barton, strong evidence of hereditary insanity as she had two aunts who were insane and her grand mother was insane
