JOHN PLEW FOUND GUILTY

TIIE JMIV DEI. I REBATED OX TIIE CASE 0i: HOtll AM) A HALF. IMew Will Serve an Indetermlnnte Sentence Col. StrelRht'n EstateOther Court Canes. John Plcw, charged with assault and battery with intent to kill Charles Vickers, who was found-dead in the rear of Wachstetter's saloon on West Washington street four weeks ago last Sunday, was found guilty by the Criminal Court jury yester day and sentenced to from two to fourteen years in the penitentiary. Vickers entered the saloon after 11 o'clock on the Saturday night before he was found dead and had a fight with Plew. Wachstettcr and a porter named Coleman were the principal witnesses yesterday and testified regarding the brutal tight. It is said that when Vickers entered the saloon he inquired If there were any prize fighters in the room and wound up his conversation by striking Plew on the chin with his fist. The witnesses testified that Vick ers followed up this blow with another, which struck Plew on the nose, and then Plew struck Vickers, knocking him down. As Vickers was attempting to get on his feet it is said ti:at Plew kicked him several times and then he and the porter dragged the dazed man into the yard back of the saloon. The testlmonv was to the effect that Tlew stayed behind the saloon five minutes after the porter returned, and that when the saloon was closed Wachstettcr and Coleman left the building by the front way and Plew by the back way. The next morning Vickers was found dead In the hack yard. Bis body was still warm, but his position indicated that he had not moved after beine: dragged from the saloon. Coroner Brayton and Dr. Frank-B. v Inn held a post-mortem examination and found that Vickers had d'?d from a blood clot on the brain. The to. oner's verdict held that there might not have been any relationship between the blows struck by Tlew and his kicks and the blood clot. For this reason IMew was not indicted for murder or manslaughter. Plew's defense was that he was engaged in a fight, but did not Intend to seriously Injure Vickers. The trial began In the morning and the jury retired at 4:30 in the afternoon. An hour and a half later it returned a verdict of guilty. COLONEL STHEKiHT'S ESTATE.

They Arc Civilization, Education nnd CnnimnnicHt ion, Dr. Mirndy Snyn. New York Special. Dr. George F. Shrady holds that civilization, education and communication are th.? three great factors In the Increase of suicides. He further holds that the months of May, June and July are essentially the "tulclde months" of the year. The fact that in the past three months there have teen In this city 117 suicides leads Dr. Shrady to scientifically discuss the prevalence of the mania for self-destruction. He says: "The study of suicide, its causes, Its scientific aspect, the reasons for it, the study of the characteristics of those who take their own lives in other words, the investigation of the inner details of suicidehave long engaged the attention and Interest of anthropologists, sociologists and physicians. It has always appealed strongly to me as a field wherein much valuable refccarch still remains to be made, although there are scores of scientists who have g.ven up all their time and brains to the subject. ' "While many would suppose that winter, with its distressing cold and its hardships, especially in the case of the poor and needy, would yield the greater number of s-uicides, it is a strange fact that in the pring and summer the number of persons Peking death by their own hands is double what it is in winter. There are three months of the year which are especially notable for the number of suicides occurring in their terms. They are May. June and July, fco. with IL persons self-destroved within the last three months, it will bo only following facts deduced by scientific instigation to say that there will be many more than 117 in the three months to come. "It has never been adequately determined why these three months are so productive of suicides. The heat may have something to do with it, hs may the lassitude which always comes with the return of spring Nevertheless, It is a fact that In Ma v. June and July most of th suicides of tli- year are recorded. ' "The study of suicide is intensely interesting. It embraces a close investigation of the human mind, what the mind will do under certain condition in certain people, and how, in other people, it will do something diametrically opposed to its aetion In tili other people. It is a study of morbidity, of suggestion, of reception, of Impression of determination. It is also a studv of various conditions of life, a man living in one state of existence would kill himself if compelled to endure what a man 'a another state accepts as his lot In lire. Again what would prompt self-destrtulion in one man would in another cause the man to determine to liyo on at all hazards. So von win see Into what varied, ions ana willing channels the subject of our suicide takes one who recks to study it out anthropologically, sociologically or otherwise. "Suicide increases with the increase of civilization. That is a remarkable commentary upon civilization, but it is a Just one. There are far more suicides in a larpe community than In a small onp. Thin is not dii" to the tact that there are more people the re that is. not because there arc more there to kilt themselves hut cause intercommunication increases suicide. u offers more suggestion to those Inclined to self-destruction. And suggestion is one of the most potent factors in suicide. It is suggestion that makes a man turn to his revolver, a woman to the phial of carbolic acid. She has Just read of some unfortunate woman escaping the carey and ills of life by swallowing a few pence worth of acid. This woman's case wag something like hers. That ii the suggestion, and the
