INSANE WATCHING COMET
Negro in Constant Terror That
Worlds End Was at Hand.
RE- raIseranh m The Tribune

SomervfIle. n. J., May 22-James
Kline. a negro formerly a. Pullman car
porter. is in the Somerset County Jail
here tonight a raving maniac, as the
result of waiting in terror for several
days for the destruction of the world
by Halley's comet.
Patrolman Holmes was standing IN
Main street about o'clock this morning
when Kline. in scant attire, doomed UP
out of the fog and passed him with the
speed of the wind, shouting that he
was being pursued by his mother-in-
law and the tail of HaIley's comet
Holmes called after him, and he stopped
and began to pray
Kline is well known here as one OF
the pillars of the African Methodist
Episcopal Zion Church. He began his
observations of the comet about a week
ago. after which he went through the
negro colony here warning his brethren
to prepare for the end of the world on
May Is.
The puZZling movements OF the comet
had the effect of keeping Kline in q
state of constant terror, and it is now
believed that he is hopelessly insane

BOOKKEEPER TO BELLEVUE
Mind Gives Way Planning Com
pany to Make Adding Ma chimes.

Stanley H. c. Walpole, who said he
lived at No 965 Boulevard, Weehaw-
ken, was taken from the Hotel Knicker-
booker to the Tenderloin police station
last night. and later he went volun-
tarily to the psychopathic ward at
Bellevue Hospital WalDoIe had or
dered a meal at the hotel cafe, but
before it was served went to his room
and retired.
A short time afterward Charles T.
Northrob, a lawyer, OF No. 81 Nassau
street. to whom Walpole had tele-
phoned. called to inquire for him. At
that moment Walpole appeared in the
office and walked out into 42d street.
Northrob followed and told PatTolnlan
Tethers to arrest him.
The lawyer told the lieutenant that
Walpole was bookkeeper for the Ma
tional Biscuit Company and that he was
also interested in the organization Of
company to manufacture adding ma
chimes. His mind had weakened under
the double strain Lieutenant McCar-
thy suggested that Walpole go to Belle
vue, and the latter agreed. He had only
one cent in his clothes, but he informed
the lieutenant il would be multiplied

Eight automobile parties had the IN
usual experience last night of being held
up on Fifth avenue and compelled to
listen TO a sermonette from a Young
man resembling in appearance a divin-
ity student. Patrolman Keefer. of the
Tenderloin station, standing at 29th
street, saw the occurrences, and when
he was finally convinced that the young
man was not deputy commissioner of
whom he had never heard he placed him
under arrest, despite the prisoners pro-
test that he hadn't the pleasure of the
partolman's acquaintance
At the Tenderloin station Lieutenant
Mccarthy, usually an adept cross-ques-
toner, found that he was facing one of
the hardest propositions of his career

GREAT JOY AT PRINCETON
Trustees Express Deep Gratifl
cation Over $4,000, 1000 Gift.

BY Telesraph 10 Ihe tribune
Princeton, n. j., May 22.-The news Of
the bequest of Isaac c. Wyrnan to the
graduate school of Princeton University
was received here to-day with delight
There was much speculation as to what
effect it would have on the graduate
school controversy, which has recently
been more or less OF dead issue, owing
TO the lack of money with which to be-
gin the erection of the buildings for such
an institution. Now that the funds have
been provided the trustees will have to
decide the questions in dispute.
1t is hoped, however. that the result
will be harmony. Those who have been
inclined to this view.
That the will OF Mr.. Wyman was dated
July 1, 1909, was considered as distinctly
noteworthy by all. The early date
makes il seem that at that time Mr..
Wyman's bequest was a gift to his Alma
Mater, and not to be used to support the
ideas of one man. On the other hand,
Mr.. Wyman was known to be a close
friend of Dean West, and there is every
probability that the latter was factor
in procuring the money.
The friendship between Mr.. Wyman. a
man of literary tastes, and Dean West,
who is Giger professor of Latin in the
university has been of many years stand
ing Curiously enough, however, although
Mr.. Wy1nan has shown such a deep love
for Princeton, he never visited here after
his graduation Dean West discontinued
his sophomore course in Horace last Fri
day and, taking some ivy from Old North
with him, left here for Salem. He is now
in Boston and is expected here on Tues
day

A three-cornered encounter between 3

caused an uproar in a restaurant in
125th street last night Before the
struggle was over the owner of the dog

and the cat had acquired lasting aver

In front of the restaurant is an ice
box with glass top. through which
varied delicacies may be seen A waiter
returned from the ice box last night
with a basket containing several lob
sters. when one Of the crustaceans fell
ont and began to crawl along the floor.
Thomas started to demonstrate with the
lobster. when the latter fastened a claw
in his leg. With d cry of pain the cat
retreated. dragging his captor after him.
At this moment Gus, the bulldog,
made a spring toward the combatants,
upsetting the chair on which his owner,
Miss Rose Leland. of No. 516 West
l79th street. was sitting. Miss Leland
promptly tainted Many of the other
natrons became excited, and several
offered suggestions To employees who

churches to-day managed TO stop Sun
day baseball within the city limits. but

action

of the best known amateur baseball mines

other amateur nine. have had lawyers

soloist. and if they persisted information
would be filed against the ministers of

TO END MARRIAGE OF UNFIT
Bishop M'Vickar Favors Mental
and Physical Examinations.
IBy Telegraph to The tribune, ]

BY Telegraph 10 Ihe Ir1hune-I
Providence. MAY 22-That every
human being in the United States, or
elsewhere for that matter, deemed physi-
ca1ly or mentally unfit should be pre-
vented by national lows from marrying,
and that a commission of experts should
be appointed to pass on the fitness of
each would-be bride or bridegroom, is
the assertion whereby Bishop McVickar
of the Protestant Episcopal Church of
Rhode Island sounds the note of a re-
form which he declares is likely TO
spread from one end of the country TO
the other. Bishop McVickar asserts
that he makes these recommendations
only after the most careful considera-
ton of the subject and after having
spent years in accommodating facts rela-
tive to his deductions.
Il fully believe he says. that in less
than generation We shall see national
legislation that will check indiscriminate
marriage, and which will prevent the
propagation of disease, both mental and
physical The average public does not
as yet realize it, but there has been q
steady although unobtrusive advance
ment in legislation looking toward the
prevention of marriage between those
physically and mentally unfit
There should be laws passed which
will make it impossible for the habitual.
hopeless criminal, the person showing
incipient idiocy or insanity, or the tuber-
culosis patient, to get married and trans
nit that disease to descendants.
THE working out of a plan that would
make those things entirely feasible is, of
course, a hard proposition. 1t might be
possible for a. man and a woman to have
the certificate of their family physician
as a guarantee that they were fitted for
marriage. It would probably be neces-
sary to establish sort Of marriage COM
mission in each state or large city, the
members OF which would decide on each
applicant"
