SCHRANK ADJUDGED
INSANE ON REAL
EXPERT TESTIMONY

Wisconsin can, with good reason,
feel proud of the record she has
established in trying and disposinp
of John Schrank, who on October
ID attempt d to assassinate Colonel
Roosevelt and On November 20,
exactly six weeks later, was COM
mitted the TO insane asylum.
Those who have complained of the
laws delays, the endless
technicalities. the Earring expert
witnesses" the motions for new
trial and the appeals on fiimsy pre-
texts that have haracterized most
criminal prosecutions of late years.
will read with relief and new hope
the record of the simple, sane and
thoroughly dignified procedure
followed by the trial Judge. The
'urt appointed commission of
five Wel-kno@n alienists to exam
inc the accused and report to the
court as to his sanity AS noted
last week in our news columns,
the commission, after careful
investigation, reported unanim-
ously, that Schrank was suffering
from insane delusions, that lie was
insane at the present time and that
he was unable to conduct his de-
Tense intelligently. AS q part of
the report. they submitted state
men prepared by Scrank to he read
to the jury. which statement alone
contained sufficient internal evil
dence Of Schrank's mental irres-
possibility. According to news
papers, Schrank showed keen dis
appointment in not being allowed
to pose as a martyr, to the salts
faction Of his paranoac delusions
and the inspiration of the insane
cranks. The entire procedure,
says The Journal of the rAmerican
Medical Association, is in crafty
ing contrast to some of our "cele.
brated' murder trials end is an un-
answerahle reply to the argument
that such spectacles are necessary
to protect individual rights or are
unavoidable under our laws.
Judge A. G Backus.: the trial
judge deserves the appreciation of
all good citizens, aud especially of
all practitioners of medicine and
law, since 1t is on these two
professions that the scandal and
disgrace of the abuses Of expert
testimony have fallen most heavily.

DON'T GOSSIP.

u =
I A Jewish woman once repeated
a piece of gossip about a neigh
Dor. 1t flew from mouth to
mouth, and soon all the town
knew the story, which caused the
person affected a great deal of
unhappiness.
One day the woman discovered
that the tale she had told was not
true, and in the greatest sorrow
she went to the rabbi to ask in
what way she could make atone
ment for, and repair, the wrong
she had committed.
The rabbi heard what the wo-
man had to say, and he told her
to go to the market, have a fowl
killed, pluck it on the way home,
and drop the feathers one by one
as she went along.
The woman was surprised at
this curious means Of ofatonement,
but she did as the rabbi instruct
ed, and on the following day
came to him again toreport that
she had carried out his behest.
Now" said the rabbi, "go
and collect all the feathers and
bring them to me.
The woman went along the
road she had traversed on the
previous day, but she found that
the wind had blown the feathers
away, and after an all-day's
search, she was only able to
bring back two or three.
You see, "the good rabbi said
to her gently, 1T was easy to
drop the feathers, but is an al
most impossible task to bring
them back again. So it is with
gossip and SANDER. 1t is easy to
spread false reports about thy
neighbor, but it is impossible to
make'good the wrong thus COM
mitted Go thy way and avoid
gossip. "-Ex.

There can be no doubt that the
greatest deficiency of Kentucky

of one element of plant food linn
its crop production, although all
the other elements might be pre-

only one source from which nit.
