MIR. Jerome I'VE are not trying this de-
fcndant for not being a gentleman.
The insane period prior to the tragedy
DIR. Jellffe said was about two years
and half. He thought that Thaw was
inscne when he wrote the letters which
are in evidence, when he made the will
and codici and when he married Evelyn
Nesbit. Undoubtedly there had been RAJ
tional intervals during the course of
Thaw's mental sickness.

made by DR.. Evans and DR., Wagner We're
gone over carefully Then came the actual
events Immediately preceding and sue
ceeding the shooting. DR.. Jelliffe repeated
previous replies to questions regarding
Thaws knowledge of what he was do

effect in his opinion Thaw had an In

said that Thaw doubtless remembered
what Miss Nesbit told him in Paris
The fact that man had good MEM

the cords. kept repeating, I'll Kill him,
III kill him, III kill him..
Ibid he know what he was doing?"
~ think so; he also thought he was
killing someone at the same time.
Mr. Jerome concluded his cross-exam-
nation and Mr.. Delmas began his re-
direct examination.

Mr.. Delmas objected on the ground
that the form of Insanity Is not neces-
sary under the statutes, the law provid-
ing that only defect of reason should
be such a character that the accused
did not know the nature and quality of
his act was wrong.
Justice Fitzgerald oyerruled the objec-
ton.
In reply to questions, DR.. Pilgrim saidi
There are in the question evidences of
one sort of insanity in some parts and
in other evidences of other sorts. There
is enough in the hypothetical question for
anyone to make a scientific differential
diagnosis.
When Thaw roamed about the roof
garden" the witness said, "he had an in
sane knowledge of Whist he was doing
and he probably realized when he pulled
the trigger of his revolver that 1t would
infiict the damage 1t did, but his mind
was so overpowered that he was unable
to appreciate the nature or quality of
his act"

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ar.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an in.
famed condition Of the mucous lining
of the eustachian tube. When this
tube is inlamed you have a rumblinS
sound or imperfect hearing, n whea
it is entirely closed, deafness Is the
result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restor-
ed to its normal condition, hearing Will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
Of ten are caused by catarrh, which Is
nothing but an infamed condition OF
the mucous surfaces.

Most Needed.

People are often very much disap,
pointed to find that their family ply
stefan is away from home when they
most need his services. Diseases like

many instances proven fatal before
medicine could be procured or a ply
