but said it was an insane knowledge.
They could not tell the difference be-
tween sane and insane knowledge, but
said the only knowledge that Thaw
had was insane.
Now let US come back to the killing.
There is not In any of the acts of that
night ore thing that shows a lack of
appreciation of what he was doing.
You remember the conversation with
Mr.. Smith? Was there anything ira
tional there? AND after the killing, did
he say that he was the agent of AL
mighty God who had been directed TO
make way with this ravisher Ct Amer
lean womannood? Ne. ne said, He
ruined my wife. There was nothing
said about providence until after his
consultation with my friend, DR.. Ey-
ans. In the words, He ruined my wife
he expressed a motive for his crime.
But there was nothing irrational there.
And there was nothing irrational about
anything he did that night. When he
got to the station house he gave a fic-
titious name That was not the insane
mantle agent of providence, the one
man chosen of God to avenge a woman
that was not a man glorying in a
righteous act.
Mr.. Delmas said he would not ap-
peal to such a shadowy thing as the
unwritten law. But he ended by an
appeal to 'dementia AmeriCand'-Which
he said afflicted the whole nation. He
might have better adhered to his orig
inal purpose, because if this man We're
insane you might acquit him.

Let me also remind you of the great

Mr.. Jerome then sat down.

wanted to take the chance of fighting
out his case before a jury.
Now, as to DR.. Deemar. He merely
testified that Thaw was nervous, that's
all.

next
Evans told you that Thaw suffered
from exaggerated ego. That is merely
another name for vanity. DIR. Binga-

Evans also told you Thaw had

classic phrase. Well, he has at least
succeeded in making it known the

call, we tried to find definition for

I'VE were told that Thaw was like
a rrdderless ship which had lost it's

Mr.. Jerome then read the case of a

referred to i'm the course of the trial.
After reading this case, Mr.. Jerome re-
marked:

Thaw as there is between smallpox and
a broken leg.
After Evans and Wagner came Mrs.

pressed the fact that Thaw knew the
nature of his act and knew that it was
wrong.

THE AVERAGES
ONE PLAYER
 THREE HUNDRED
Bronkie the Only Man Still Hold ing the Lucky Mark -All the
 Other Averages.

Bronkie still retains the title of the only, man on the local team that is hitting in the 300 column and he gain ed just one point over the mark of last week. Ward is still next to him, but fell off four points rom the rec ord of the week previous. McEnroe. who was next, has dropped back to the fifth position. Nichols is next in line, dropping some, Du1 still gaining the third place. Lachance, who has been knocked unmercifuIiy, and for what, no one seems to know, gained ten points last week, and this player deserves more praise than all the hard things that are being said about him. He is the best first baseman in this league, and that is talking pretty loud when you make that state ment. Swander gained little last week and the others remain almost the same. The following are the bat

Nor which maintained pretty steady gait and did not vary much from her record of last week in the matter of percentage. The others kept reia- lively the same position. Bridgeport however accomplished something during the week. for she had no vic- tory over Holyoke up to last week, when she defeated her twice during the week just elapsed. New London is now the only team that has not secured a victory over each of her opponents. failing to win game from Holyoke or Springfield. The following is the standing:

WITH THE PooLIsTs.
Two Teams Carried the Money This
 Week and Pools are Divided.

Springfield and Hartford came un- der the wire neck and neck this week with twenty-nine runs each. In the pools kept by the Democrat every run that is made in any game is counted no matter if the game only went one inning or tewnty innings. No to games are counted but the runs made before the game was forfeited or call ed. It was this counting of runs in unfinished games that sent Spring field up to a tie with Hartford. Bridgeport was a close second this week with Waterbury and all her hard luck in next position. It was a great race this week and the Demo- crat office was beseiged on Saturday night watching for the final returns. The following are the records.
