SONS IN BED IL YEARS
"Mountain WITCH Accused Of Cast
ing Hypnotic Spell Over Them, To
Asylum.


| Gloversville, N. ", June 21.-The
commitment of Mrs. Sarah Bennett,
known as the witch OF the Adiron-
dacks," to the State Insane Asylum
| at Utica, will free her three sons
from hypnotic spell which she cast
over them 12 years ago, and, accord
ing to doctors, will result i'm the re
lease of the three men from their
beds, where they have been confined
by the mother for a dozen years.
The physicians claim the three
are not suffering from any disease,
either physical or mental, and will
be able to walk as they cast their
mothers spell from them.
| George, 81; Ward, 81, and Frank,
30 years, are biz, husky men, vet
their mother has kept them in bed
for many years, subdued, it is said,
by hypnotic power and unable to
leave the room where they were con-
fined. While they have not vet re
covered from the influence of their
mother, they are expected to recover
their own will power within few
days.
1 Mrs. Bennett seldom left her sons
and kept visitors or with shotgun.
Her husband, James Bennett, was
completely under her influence. The
sons, under their mothers spell, lay
in bed for dozen years and seemed
to have accepted her word that they
were suffering from tuberculosis.
An investigation three years ago
revealed the condition of affairs in
the Bennett household, but until re
Gently the officials have found no way
Of breaking through the reserve
maintained by Mrs. Bennett. The
BENEFITS troubled no one and no one
was willing to trouble them, though
the fact of the sons predicament was
generally known.
The opportunity came recently
when Mrs. Bennett went on a visit to
Worthwhile. Two doctors obtained an
interview with her and at once de-
clared she was insane On their rep
resentation Judge Frank Talbot sent
the woman to the asylum.
During the investigation of three
years ago the three boys, or rather
men, were found to be family rebel
lious against their mothers domi-
nation, but the moment she flashed
her eyes on them they were silent
and obedient.
A peculiar feature of the strange
spell the woman cast over her sons
ID that she and her husband shaved
day and night on the farm to provide
for them, although each was perfect
ly capable of doing a mans work,
Even now their father, who, unlike
his sons, il now in poor physical
condition, says the boys need not get
up unless they want to.

The Horses Point OF View fin Summer

If 4 horse could talk he woul have
many things to say when summer
comes.
He would tell the driver that ht
feels the heat on very warm day
quite as much as If he could read the
thermometer.
He would say,-"Give me a little
water many times a day, when the
heat i intense, but not much at {
time if am warm; If you want me
to keep well don't give me any grair
when you bring me warm into the
stabel, just half dozen swallows o.
water, and some hay to eat until / an
cool.
Don't water me too sooon after
have eaten my grain, wait an hour
Especially do need watering between
nine and ten at night. | am thirstiel
then than at almost any other time
OF day"
He would say,-"When the sun i:
hot and l am working let me breathe
once in while in the shade of some
house or tree; if you have to leave me
on the street leave me in the shade i
possible. Anything upon my head
between my ears, to keep off the sun
is bad for me if the air cannot circu.
late freely underneath it, unless it i:
a sponge kept cool and wet. iii yoJ
treat me as you would yourself, ant
do not clip off my foretop, you neec
not have much fear of losing me by
SunStroke.
"If on an extremely warm day | give
evidence of painting and signs of ex'
haustion that l am being overcome
with the heat, unharness me, take me
into the shade and apply cold water
or even broken ice, wrapped up in Z
cloth or put in a bag, to my head
sponge out my mouth and 60 over my
legs with a cool wet sponge"
He would talk of slippery streets
and the sensations of falling on cruel
city cobblestones-the pressure 81
the load pushing him to the fall, the
bruised knees and wrenched joints
and the feel of the drivers lash.
He would tell of the luxury of the
fly net when at work and Of fly
blanket when standing still in fly
season, and of the boon to him Of
screens in the stable to keep out the
insects that bite and sting.

which to rest at night after a days
work under the hot sun.
He would suggest that living
through warm night in a narrow
stall neither properly cleaned mol
bedded u suffering for him and poor
economy for the owner.
He would say that turning the
hose on him is altogether too risky {
thing to do unless you are looking
for a sick horse. Spraying the leg:
and feet when he is not too warm OF
hot day, he would find agreeable.
He would say-'Please sponge out

also sponge me with clean cool water

harness. Our Dumb Animals.

banks it was decided that the situa- tion does not at present justify any emergency action to increase the supply of legal tender. If, however, future events necessitate it, the treasury will take immediate action.
 The Daily Telegraph understands the German ambassador yesterday made a declaration to the French government which is interpreted as an announce ment of his early departure from Paris.
 An extraordinary council of ministers held at Peterhof, according to a St. Petersburg despatch to the Times, was confronted with a modified situation resulting from the assurances by the German ambassador following mes sages exchanged between the CZar the Kaiser and King George.
 The impression among the ministers, the despatch adds, is that Germany is disposed to bring pressure upon Aus tria to resume diplomatic conversations on grounds acceptable to other Euro pean powers, and there seems some hope of a compromise.

The governor of the Bank of Eng land was authority for the statement that there is practically no doubt that the banking act will be suspend cd before business is resumed, and that the Bank of England will issue pound notes to relieve the strain, the smallest notes at present being five pounds.
 At all banks were lines of small deposito:s drawing from G10O to G200. which they thought would be the necessary ready cash for buying food if the situation does not brighten.
 When the banks open Tuesday probably tens of thousands of small depositors will be clamoring for the only thing the average man trusts under present circumstances-gold
 There are more persons in England than in any country in the world living on interest from investments. The financial district was crowded by country squires, retired gentle men and people of that sort, who rushed in from outlying territory to ascertain whether their sacred in comes were endangered All were cheerful and joking and had the consolation that their friends were in the same boat.

Wilhelm Makes War Speech

BERLIN, July 31.-The German em- peror made a war speech to the people of Berlin in which he expressed the hope that if unable to induce his op- ponents to maintain peace, he would wield his sword and show his enemies what it means to provoke Germany.
 The emperor summoned the Reichs- tag to meet Tuesday at the Royal Pal ace, to hear the decision of the emperor and the Bundesrath and if necessary to vote a war credit
 Five thousand persons assembled in front of the palace late this afternoon and cheered the emperor and the em- pire. During the demonstration Elm peror William appeared in a window and addressed as follows:
 The Hateful hour has fallen for Ger many. Envious people everywhere are compelling us to exercise our just de- fense. The sword has been forced into our hands.
 q hope that if my efforts at the last hour do not succeed in bringing our op- ponents to see eye to eye with us in HIdlHtdlllluS peace we Slldll Wlti bOu ; help. so Wield the sword that we will restore it to it's sheath again with honor.
 War would demand of us an enorm- ous sacrifice in property and life, but we should show our enemies what it means to provoke Germany. And now commend you to God Go to church and kneel before God and pray his help for our gallant army"

PRESIDENT CONFERS
 ID AVERT STRIKE
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATGHI


 WASHINGTON, July $l.-Deter- mined to prevent if possible the strike or 55,OOO engineers and firemen on rinety-eight western railroads ex- pected Friday unless the two sides settle, the president hela a long conference with Williams l.. iaCham- bers and Martin A. Knapp of the fed etal board of mediation and concilia- tion preparatory to meetings he will hold tomorrow with representatives of the general managerst and the workmen. .-..
 Judge Chambers and Judge Knapp told MT Wilson tonight of their fruitless efforts to bring the two sides together during long negotia- tlons at Chicago. Mediation having failed it is understood that members of the board believed the only way to settle the differences is by acbi- 1 tration under the terms of the New land law
 | The president was informed that more than 31,00O,00O people live along the railroads affected by the threat ehed strike, and that many thousands | Of persons in addition to railroad em- ployes will be thrown out of work 1 if the strike is called
 President Wilson will appeal di- rectly to the employers and em- ployes to settle their differences without a strike. He will tell them that because of war in Europe, and the necessity of moving large crops Ill the west, strike at this time would be disastrous to the country.
 The president will talk to the rail- roads managers at o'clock tomor- row afternoon and to the employees at o'clock. It is expected both sides will again confer with members of the mediation board.

RECALL BIG GERMAN
 LINERS BY WIRELESS
Transatlantic Service Indefinitely Sus- pended and Thousands of Passen-
 gers Delayed
ASSOCIATED PRESS p1spArcH1

NEW YORK, July 31-Trans- Atlan- tic service of passenger and freight steamships sailing between Germany and American ports has been practical ly suspended for an indefinite period owing to the European war situation.
 By wireless the Hamburg American line recalled it's vessels the President Grant and the North German Lloyd it's Grosser Kurfuerst, both of which sailed from here yesterday. Both lines an nounced that their ships would be held at whatever port they happened to be and those in mid ocean at their next ports until further notice.
 Thousands of passengers will be de- layed in sailing and must seek passage on other boats if they decide to go to
 Europe. Booking agencies made ar
 rangements for the transfer of some
 three thousand passengers of the Va terland the Hamburg American liner
 which was to have sailed tomorrow from Hoboken. Provision merchants ready to load ocean going German ships with supplies faced heavy losses as much perishable food sent to the piers was not taken on board The pier
 gates at HobOken were closed and a
 strict guard maintained against others
 than passengers and crews going aboard German ships. At several piers the receiving of freight was suspended. The Eastern Asiatic steamship com pany maintaining line of steamships between Libau, Russia and this part, flying the Russian flag, may place them under the Danish flag if hostilities break out, it was intimated by their agents the company is largely Danish undertaking.
 Marine underwriters refused to in- sure ships flying the Russian flag and there was great hesitansy in taking risks on German steamships and their cargoes.
