GElaEL o. RoDerL l.. Newman 3 Laces
Robert L Newman. twenty three
years Of age, confessed accomplice in
the staying OF John P. werres. is the
most remarkable type OF the three
concerned In the murder, according to
Dr. Hickling He hnds as follows:
Now we come 20 the most remark
able type Of the three implicated in
John P. WeFres' death.
Newman has the typical Darwin
ear. Note its irregular, outstanding
lines Combined with the rest OF the
jaw and face It makes this face
marke edly that OF a reversion 10. tyre
lower type-the animal
Here is a veritabIe "Dr. JekylI AMI
Mr.. Hyde" of Robert Louis Stevea-
sons portrayal.
This man in his hereditg on one
side has the animalistic and the brus-
ish dominant On the other side OF
his ancestry was the higher mental,
In this mans life there is a con
stant battle between his two selves,
the good and the evil. He is
chRmeleon-man. When he is with
good companions. surrounded by good
eRvironmentsl conditions, he is an
inoffensive. weak. good-naturad fel-
low.
Evil Side Crops Out.
When he Is in the association Of
evil and vicious companions his evil,
vicious other self crops out, and he
is bad.
The broad angles Of the jaw and
chin Indicate development. while they
show the brutal savage development
so often found in those OF strong
animal makeup.
Note the difference in the two
eyes. One is the eye OF a cave man,
a brute. shallow, CLASSY.
The other Is the droopy, weak eye
of the mentally defective.
The brow Is rather well developed.
and is worthy OF better company than
Newman apparently kept.
This brow indicates that at times

would have flashes of the higher |

lapse back into the lower mentality /,
again.
Neck IL Reaned.
The neck, not wen shown in the |
chart, IS refined, in keeping with the 1
forehead. But the face in the en-
semble shows lack OF continuity OF /.

plaything of his two selves, torn 4
between the impulses OF /
his good and his evil natures.
Now take an envelope. Bisect the
face, concealing the left half When .
you change and view the left half 81

eye that really belongs to Gamble. 4

This half OF the face would shed a I

act.
Weak, DrOOpinE Eye.
Now with your envelope conceal
