PLEADS "ciRcLE INSANITY"
DR.. Evans, on Stand, Tells of Another
Form Of Lunacy.

Somerville, n. j., Nov 23.--Dr. Brittor
D. Evans, the alienist of ''brainstorm''
fame, told a jury in the Somerset court
here Today of another form of lunacy
which he termed circle insanity" He
testified that man afflicted with this
form of mental arrangement had circles
of insanity in which it was possible for
him to start from a lucid point and go
through a series of revolving acts and
then arrive at an apparently normal con-
dition after he had been strapped to Il
bed and a garden hose played on him
for an hour by a county iailer.
DR.. Evans was called to testify in the
case of Alfonso Viola, a retired hotel
keeper at Raritan, who is charged with a
crime in which Il 3-year-old girl is the
acknowledged victim. The case is being
tried before Judge Clarence f. Case.
ViolaS counsel, Alvah A. Clark, in an
effort to prove that Viola was insane
when he committed the act, called DR..
Evans, who has charge of the Morris
Plains Insane asylum, and DR.. Evans
then gave his testimony on circle insan-
ity,' in which he accounted for Viola $
state when he committed the crime and
his present lucid condition, which has ex-
listed since James =. Major the jailer,
played a garden hose on him in his cell
four weeks ago.
In rebuttal to DR.. Evans scientific tes-
timony Prosecutor Pope called to the
stand DR.. William II, Long, DR.. John p.
Hecht and DR.. A. L. Stillwell all of this
place. who testified that they had exam
ined Viola during his period of violence
in the Jail and had made a subsequent
examination after he had been subjected
to the garden hose treatment, and that
they were of the unanimous opinion that
he was not insane either before or after
the treatment.

A Good Joke.

The truth is told on one OF Hal
lowelrs young men who went into a
store Tuesday evening and purchased
some candy, failing to pass it around
among a number of young ladies who
were present. Not to be outdone, they
watched the young gents movements
as he went out onto the street and
later, at a dark point near O'Brien's
|electrophone plant the young ladies
really pounced upon and held him up
sufficiently long to remove his sweet
purchase. The young man was so
amazed that he could offer no resis-
lance and worse, he made rapid strides
toward his home. badly frightened
from the onslaught. The young ladies
had a gentleman near in case of re-
volt but his services were not needed.
