DR.. Ferriss thinks they are wasting
their time. He said repeatedly to Mar

to the press. that he has no power
whatever 10 transfer Thaw from Mat

The head OF the Lunacy Commission

CHORUS GIRL
SHE PUNCHED HIS EYE.

NEW YORK. Feb. 6.-rhe son Of a
well known brewer dined sumptuously
last evening and strolled up Broadway TO
see the sights. one that particularly at
traoted his attention was three inches OF
ankle. perfect in mould The owner was
a chorus girl. who for some seasons has
been a familiar figure on musical comedy
stages along the Rialto.
The brewer-once-removed stopped short.
then lurched toward the young woman
and embraced her. The next instant he
received a right swing in the eye that
sent him sprawling on regaining his feet
the young man spun around twice, fell
through the door OF a hotel bar and loud
ly called for a drink. Thereupon some
one hit him in the other eye and threw
him out.

LEWIS HELPS
STATES CASE
Gives Testimony Indicating
the Defense of ArChi-
teCt Huston

HARRISBURG. Pa. Feb. 6-The reveia-
tions made by Stanford B. Lewis. Archi-
teot Huston's assistant, on tho witnoss
stand testifying for the Commonwealth
in the Capitol conspiracy suits, fell as o
veritable bombshell into the camp OF the
defense.
Lewis, seemingly acting as the UNDER
study Of Huston, made a clean breast ef
everything. His revelations involved
Mathues, Snyder and Shumaker in an
intricate legal maze from which It will
be the task Of their counsel TO extricate
them. Il would surprise no one II the
defendants are called to the stand by
their lawyers 70 combat the Lewis evil
dence before the Commonwealth closes.
Lewis evidence tends to clear the
architects skirts of some Of the charges
that have been made against him, and
show his line Of defence.
His defence is that he placed his
confidence in the men who supplied
and superintended the reception Of the
furnishings that we're designed by him.
Enraptured In his art. he dwelt In a
realm above that OF business. once
he conhded TO a friend that he had
won a crown for himself In his work
as architect Of the Capitol, and that
his last ambition was TO rest In death
beneath the structure that would bring
his renown down through the ages
Little did he dream that the crowd
would contain the many thorns thai
he is now striving TO remove from his
view.
Court having adjourned yesterday
until tomorrow morning, counsel foi
the defence and prosecution are spend.
ing today IN conferences.
