ancholy occurs with increasing frequency.
It IS held to be nothing more or less than
'ncipient forms of insanity. BY establish
ing the novel form of treating out-patients
there is the advantage Of enabling many
of the afflicted ones. those so fortunate
as TO be cured. to nave this treatment so
privately as to escape the stigma OF be-
Ing insane, a stigma that follows one who
has for any period been AN inmate OF an
asylum for the insane.
The general management of the new
hospital is IN the hands of DIR. Henry p.
Frost. superintendent of the Boston state
hospital. of which this new p~sychopathic
hospital Is but one department. But the

A Versatile Performance

The illumination of country homes by

following note to the Drennen company
and given out by Winburn b. Smith:

PHRASE A MISNOMER
English Say Money in Chancery" Not
What Name Implies

From the London Answers
Most people have heard the phrase
money in chancery." but It is more than
doubtful whether many people know what
the money is, or how 1t came into chan
Gerry, or how it gets out, in most cases
after the lapse of many years.
AS matter Of fast, the phrase
money in chancery' Is a misnomer, for
there is not now court OF chancery as
separate organization. Ii was killed
by act of parliament, the judicaturc act
doing the deed. There is chancery
civision of the high court OF justice.
and the money commonly called money in
chancery Is simply standing In the books
Of the supreme court pay office.
How did the money get there?
Imagine a typical case. A man dies in
1850. He leaves property to trustees In
trust for his four children. One of these
children goes abroad and settles out there
Some dispute arises between the other
children and the trustees. The matter
comes before the court, and the trustees
are ordered to pay the shares into court
They do this and in time the three chill
dren are able to draw out their shares;
but the one abroad never claims his, and
unless he OF his descendants claim the
money 1t will he there stii.
There Is nothing more Improbable than
the pursuit of money in chancery.
Dozens of people have wasted their means
and their lives at the game of hunting
unclaimed funds. One In a hundred may
get something in the. end, the other 90
find themselves baked and disappointed.
Some people run away with the idea that
because they happen to bear the same
name as one of the people mentioned In
the list of unclaimed funds in the boon
Of the supreme court that, therefore, they
stand good chance of getting something
That is not so, and even people with I'M
oomm on names. although they see SINH
lar name in the list often do not stand
e ghost of q chance. The court viii re-
quirc very strict proof and very strong
evidence indeed before It will order money
TO be paid out to a claimant. and near
say evidence ia not acceptable.

Why the Farmers Protest

Tho nachine did not stop. The farm

With fearful voice the owner inquired
OF another party as to the identity of tho
driver, but little information was secured.
He said a careful search would be made
for the machine which was adorned by a

killing of the horse and the wide excite

any great cordiality for other drivers

ROME MAY BUILD

Plan Revival of Chariot
Racing-Many Murders
in Cities

Rome. August 10.-(Special The cor
poration of the city of Rome is consider
ing the building OF an immense motor
drome for the purpose of encouraging WIS.,
tors to the Eternal City through a mod
ern revival of the glories of the chariot
races brougn; up to date. A site has been
chosen just outside the limits of the city
and the mayor and other public spirited
citizens are offering subscriptions to help
forward the project.
The revival Of the ancient rivalry of the
wheel is largely due TO interest in the
Oymplan games at Stockholm. 1t is de-
plored that Italian athletics did not have
an opportunity 10 prove their prcwess in
the sports OF their hereditary rivals 1t
is hoped that through a great auto tour
nament many Americans would be en-
oouraged to spend large part Of their va
cation in and around Rome. This year
there have been comparatively few tour
lists from the United States and most of
the hotels and resorts have enjoyed a lean
reason.
Italy is likely to rentroduce capital
punishment as a result of an epidemic
of murders in the large cities. In Naples,
alone. statistics show that murders nave
ishment was abolished.
Not less than 10 murders were reported
in Rome within the past 10 days, grim
record which IS without a parallel In mod
ern times. A Bill to restore tho death SEN
tence is being prepared by the minister
Of justice.
