prised.
Before sunset that afternoon the San
Jose was anchored behind the point
by the inlet. The fishing boats changed
moorings and moved farther up, for
not single one of their owners would
trust himself within hundred yards
OF the stricken brigantine.
The largest Of the beach shanties,
one which stood by itself quarter of
a mile from the light, was hurriedly
prepared for use as pesthouse and
the sick sailor was carried there on
an improvised stretcher. DR.. Parker
and Ellery lifted him from his berth
and, assisted by old Ebenezer Capen,
got him up to the deck and lowered
him into the dory. Ebenezer rowed
the trio to the beach and the rest Of
the journey was comparatively easy.
The shanty had three rooms, one Of
which was given up to the patient,
one used as living room, and, in the
third, Capen and the minister were to
sleep. Mattresses were procured, kind
hearted townspeople donated CASTOR
tables and chairs, and the building
was made as comfortable as it could
be, under the circumstances. Sign
boards. warning strangers to keep
away. were erected, and in addition to
them, the Trumet selectmen ordered
ropes stretched across the lane on
both sides Of the shanty. But ropes
and signs were supernuous. Tunnel

of the grocery cart, when he left the

packages under the ropes, yelled a

lop.
The village sat up nights to discuss
the affair and every day brought a
new sensation. The survivors of the
San Jose's crew, a wretched, panic
stricken quartette of mulattos and
Portuguese, were apprehended ON the
outskirts of Denboro, the town below
Trumet on the bay side, and were
promptly sequestered and fumigated,
pending shipment to the hospital at
Boston. Their story was short but
gruesome. The brigantine was not a
Turks Islands. boat, but coaster from
Jamaica. She had sailed with small
cargo for Savannah. Two days out
and the smallpox made its appearance
on board. The sufferer, negro fore
mast hand, died. Then another sailor
was seized and also died. The skip
per. who was the owner, was the next
victim, and the vessel was in a state
of decentralization which the mate, an
Englishman named Bradford, could
not overcome. Then followed days
and nights OF calm and terrible heat,
of pestilence and all but mutiny. The
mate himself died. There was no one
left who understood navigation. At

New York. June 3.--When Harry X.
Thaw's sanity trial was called today
before Justice Keogh, 1t was evident
that postponement would be taken
until late in the summer. Former Dis
trict Attorney William T. Jerome, who
has been designated as special coun-
sci to represent the state in the pro-
ceedings to secure the release OF stan
ford Whites slayer from the asylum
for the criminal insane. has gone to
Europe for the purpose of getting the
testimony of DR.. Lamb, former SUPER
|intendent at Mattewan. DR.. Lamp
while superintendent, opposed Tnaw !
release, declaring that he was still a
madman and that if freed would be a
menace to society.
Justice Keogh decided that Thaw
was not entitled to trial by jury, as
his attorney. Clarence J. Shearn, mad
demanded. The request was made IN
the name of Thaw's mother, who =;
LEGGED that her son had recovered his
mental status and should be heard Dy
twelve of his peers. Unless the mat
ter is taken to a higher court Judge
lKeogh will decide the question with
out jury.
j The sanity hearing, II is expected
will require several weeks for its com
pletion and the taking of vast
amount of expert testimony. In the
matter of cost it is likely to be al

ROOSEVELT CONTROLS
OHIO CONVENTION

Columbus. Ohio, June Still hgnt
ing with their backs to the wall, Presi-
dent Tafts supporters are making a.
last stand todaykto capture the state
convention. Apparently the Roosevelt
supporters are in full control and will
name all six of the, delegates at large
and six alternates Today's conyen-

The delegation from Hamilton, the
presidents own county,, has refused to
endrose Charles p. Taft, brother OF
the president and proprietor OF the
Cincinnati Times-Star, for delegate
at large to the republican national con-
vention. The delegation was divided
about evenly on the question, and
compromised by recommending Mr.
Taft to the state convention. Endorse

support but recommendation does mo-
Involve this pledge. If Charles T. Tar
does not go to the Chicago convention
