IRE IN NEW YORK SUBWAY.
Men, Women and Children Fought
their Way Through Dense Smoke.

New York, June 2.-Five hundred
hysterical women, screaming chill
dren and panic-stricken men fought
their way through dense smoke in
the Mott avenue subway station in
the Bronx early to-day, striving to
escape. Only one elevator was avail
able to take them to the street, which
Is Go feet above the subway level at
this point, and the crush to reach
this exit on the five flights OF stairs
which led to the surface increased
the panic.
Fifteen persons were overcome by
smoke and two men were injured Sc
riously enough to require hospital
treatment. Fire in an automatic
pumping station caused the smoke.
The damage was nominal.

CONVICTED MURDERER INSANE?
SO Prison Physician Declares OF Nee
gro Under Death Sentence.

Columbia. June 2.-Willie Be-
thune, who is under sentence of
death, and who has been at the State
penitentiary for more than year for
safekeeping, Is an insane man, ac-
cording to an affidavit filed with the
Butler. the physician at the prison.
The Supreme Court has signed an
order staying the remittitur of Be-
thune and allowing ten days for his
attorneys to file an amended petition
for a rehearing of the case.
Willie Bethune, negro, was con-
victed Of the murder OF G. b. Minis,
In Clarendon county, In 1909. He
was found guilty of murder in the
first degree and sentenced to death.
Later the case was appealed to the
Supreme Court, and the decision Of
the Clarendon county court was af-
iirmed in decision. Shortly after
! the crime was committed Bethune
was brought to the State Peniten-
tiary for safekeeping, where he has
since been, with the exception of the
few days for the trial.
G. b. Minis. well known planter
Of Clarendon county, was killed by
Bethune when he found the negro
driving his horse. The horse, hitch
ed to buggy, ran away from the
home Of Mr.. Minis He went to look
for the animal. He found that Be-
thune had caught the horse and had
been driving two girls about the
country roads. When the two met
fight ensued. with the result that
Mr.. Minis was mortally wounded,
after pistol duel in the public high
way.
In his affidavit DR.. Butler states
that Bethune first developed melan-
cholia, and later insanity. He SAYS
that the negro takes little interest in
anything, and that he tries to destroy
everything that he sees and wants
to burn up everything. Dr.. Butler is
of the opinion that Bethune is an
insane man.
Should the Supreme Court decide
to grant rehearing OF the case, It is
very probable that Bethune will be
sent to the State Hospital for the
Insane, thereby escaping the death
sentence imposed upon him.

Many SO ciety women believe this. and on Long island there as said to be a score of society women who are resorting to this treatment for health and elas- ticity. Mrs. O. H. P. Belmont spends much time in her garden in South ampton. Mrs. Herbert M Hartman and many others say they delight to pick flowers, and the question has been raised whether they are not fol lowing the advice of a beauty special ist who advises this for health and the form. If woman is in earnest about becoming slim says the beauty doctor. she will use the same nus cles in working over a flower bed as she will in exercising in a gymnasium. Needing seems prosaic, but it is ex. ceIlent exercise. One of my patients came to ne recently and said she wished to develop her arms and her shoulders.

 This preacher, in the course of a long prayer one Sunday night, recount ed the many misfortunes and evils that had befallen him in the course of his long life. Then, signing heavily, he prayed:
 "Thou hast tried me with afliction, with bereavement, and with sorrow of many kinds. If thou are obliged to try me again, Lord try me with the bur den of wealth."
