JOHN M'HENRy'S
TRIAL RESUMED
Lay Testimony introduced
Alleging "PecuIiar Actions"
on Part Of Accused Youth.

The trial Of John McHenry. twenty
years old. charged with killing Detec-
tive Sergeant James Il. Armstrong at
Union station December II last. was
resumed today before Justice Gould
and jury in Criminal Division !.
A number of lay witnesses testified
as to the peculiar" actions of the ac-
cused dating back to an early age.
Testimony for Defendant.
Miss Mary e. Butler Of New London,
Conn.,. is a school principal and once
taught McHenry. She declared he
possessed a dual personality. some-
what akin to DR.. Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde.
When In his normal mind. she said. he
was bright and cheerful. but when he
did wrong hts face would grow sullen
and ugly and his eyes would glow. Her
punishment did the pupil no good. she
declares. and she decided 1t was
waste Of energy.
Miss Helen Coyt Of New London,
Sunday school teacher, was the next
witness In her many years as
teacher, the witness said. she had
never come into contact with a more
cratic boy. He loved to tip over
other pupils, pull their hair and per-
form other similar tricks. she said.
Alienists Called as Witnesses.
The afternoon session was occupied
with the testimony of alienists. Drs.
J. NJ Murphy, ]. NJ. Ladd and John
Lind of the Government Hospital for
the Insane are expected to tell the
jury that McHenrys mind has not
developed beyond that of the normal
child of ten years and that he is not
legally responsible for the killing of
Armstrong.
The defense expects to close its
testimony tomorrow, when the gov
ernmnet will introduce rebuttal evil
dence by both lay witnesses and
medical experts that McHenry was
merely incorrigible as boy and is
not insane. The case will probably
go to the jury by Thursday after

DELAY nominating
NEW SCHOOL HEAD
Illness of Dr.. Simon Likely to
ForestaII Action at Wed.
nesday's Meeting.

Prospects Of a successor to Superin-
| tendent Of Schools Thurston being
named at a scheduled meeting Of the
noon dwindled today when It became
! known that DR.. Abram Simon. chair
man of the committee Of the school
governing body appointed to select
new superintendent. Is confined in his
home suffering with q slight illness.
DR.. Simon has not called a meeting
of the nominating committee, and in
dications today were that the names
of applicants for Mr.. Thurston's office
would not likely be discussed before
the school board meeting Wednesday,.
Despite DR.. Simon's statement that
the nominating committee would
| work slowly" in reaching its de-
cision. there were persistent rumors
in school circles today that the board
would elect a successor to Mr.. Thurs
ton at its meeting Wednesday. Per-
sons in close touch with school af-
fairs. however. express the belief that
the board will not take action toward
electing Mr.. Thurston's successor
until its final meeting on June 80.
Names Turned Over
Speculation is rife as to who the
committee will nominate as superin-
tendent. Names of a number of ap-
plicants for the position which were
filed with DR.. John Van Schaick, jr.,
president of the board. when he was
chairman of the nominating commit
tee have been turned over to DR..
Simon. Among them are several
washington educators. one of whom,
it is said, is held in high esteem by
DR.. Van Schaick. 1t is not likely that
the committee will agre on any OF
these applicants. In fact, it is in
timated that DR.. Simon will report to
the board at its final meeting that at
is unable to find a capable man for
| the position.
Assistant Mentioned.
Reports have been published to the
effect that DR.. Simon's. committee is
considering an inside man" for Mr.
Thurston's position. 1t is believed by
persons in the administration offices
OF tho school system that man al
| ready connected with the school sys-
| tenn would not accept the Office in face
| OF the protests Of citizens against the
oust1ng Of Mr.. Thurston. Assistant
Supt. Stephen e. Kramer, has been one
| Of the men mentioned as a likely sue
cessor to the present superintendent.

 ~ little letter written on very smart | stationery in a very smart handwriting ! although its all dark rblue and unhappy
 on it's little "insides."
 The writer. whose name is signed "vir- ginia,' requests that I make my reply through Dollys columns" and you may
 depend upon it I'm not going to miss a
 chance like that.
 Here is the opening sentence of the
 highly perfumed note;
 T am a very unhappy woman; I love
 man who has ceased to care for me; he still talks about our marrying but there is the eternal question in his voice;
 he wonders if he can make me happy. There has been no falling out; we have merely drifted. Can you tell me how l
 can win him back?"
 Now, then, Virginia" although I'm
 not a Beatrix Fairfax nor yet Ruth x. Ashmore, of sntiquated dates, for this
 "open article" advice is of the vintage of the early seventies in the newspaper game and went out of fashion with horse hair furniture and hoopskirts; still. dc like to be consulted, and heres the pre-
 scriptson that Yours Turly Dolly NJ. D. C'this tineD, suggests: "Get one large. tall, black bottle and |, fill it with Indifference and administer frequent doses to the gentleman in ques- ton and dying love. Keep the tonic up indefinitely"
 Further, let me say that, first of all, nothing is so absolutely undesirable, in my humble opinion, as a warmed over affection.
 Perhaps, after all. the gentleman in question is not worth all this energy that you are expending upon him. Let's read further on in Virginia s'' letter. Let me see-yes, here it is:
 I've given up everything and every body for him. Four evenings a week we spend together and all my other beaux have stopped coming to see me. He comes Sunday afternoon and stays through Sunday evening; then again Mon- day evening, which always seems to gel on his nerves Tuesday he is always fear fully indifferent. In fact, it was of a l Tuesday evening that I first noticed his 1 indifference"
 My dear girl, don't you know that his double biil,' including Sunday afternoon | and Sunday evening. is enough to disgust 1 the most ardent lover in the world? And as for Monday, why it hasn't even place | in "Love's calendar" It's merely a 1 ghastly isthmus that connects Sunday l with the rest of the week. Monday is

 Of course. know all you ask is just to be the "only woman." but is there ever an only woman?'
 In most wonderfully written novel of the year a wise student of human nature tells a certain woman that man is "a most curious creature
 'I don't know why" says she. "A dog that has a perfectly good home will throw it aside to rush in and try to take an- other home not half so good, away from three other dogs that are all trying to get it."
 The inference is, of course. that tho average man shows the same traits.
 If you, Miss Virginia will just get busy and begin powdering your nice little nose and industriously set to work to be nice and take an interest in some of the men you used" to be interested in, instead of pining away for the "one man you are engaged to. why MT. Indifferent would soon begin to sit up and take notice!
 If this be treason, then let some other woman tell the truth.
 And so with this attempted Beatrice Fairfax-Ruth N. Ashmore advice, ''Vir- ginia, I crave your kind indulgence.

and Elizabeth Woods, now a prominent contralto on the concert stage.
 The interesting trio comprises MT. Bel den. assisted by Sibil Veda Gum, dan seuse, and Jessica Duke Richardson, a pianste from the artist class of AL berta Jonas. Quite a feature of the pro- gramme was the solo group which Mime. Duke Richardson presented. Miss Gum is the embodiment of poetic motion and won an ovation after her interpreta- ton of the Chopin "Etude,' G fat. The Chopin Funeral March" brought forth unusual comment, and Mfr. Belden' s Christian Boy" and the Debussy "Gol- lwog Cake Walk" were decidedly artis- tic concepts. After a prolonged ovation MT. Belden repeated the grotesque "Gol- liwog Cake Walk
 A pleasant incident of the evening was the fact that MT. Frokine recalled the work of Mir. Belden from having wit ressed performance in Paris. MT Fro- kine especially commented upon the fa- cial portrayal which was so effectively used in the Christian Boy, done to a Rachmaninoff prelude.
 Birmingham people can feel just pride in the rise of Alvin Belden, and we whc have watched his unceasing labors have happy satisfaction in his success.
