A ViCARlOUSEPICURE Scheme of a Man Whose Digestive Organs Were Jaded.
GASTRONOMIC JOY BY PROXY. H Couldn't Eat Himtelf, but Hs Scoured th Markets For Game and Dainties For Feasts For His Friends and Watched Them While They Ate. "Awhile ago," observed the man who sees things, "I caught au .d dyspeptic friend of mine doing a curious stunt. Ife was watching a gang of negro street pavers eating their no-uday meal. He watched them with a sort of fascinated gaze. The feats they were accomplishing in the way of projecting absolutely Impossible things into their svsterus seemed weird and almost uato my dyspeptic friend. One of canny the negroes particularly seemed to hold the enraptured focus of my friend's vision. This negro hail for his noonday feed two gigantic sandwiches, composed of thick hunks of boiled salt pork stuck between big slabs of bread. He gulped these two sandwiches in about four bites and then licked his chops in a hungry sort of way, as if they'd only about tasted like more to him, if more were to be had. It was a spellbinding spectacle in the view of my dyspeptic friend. It looked incredible, out of the question. It teemed to him such a spectacle as might be afforded by the sight of a boa constrictor feeding on a full sized and kicking donkey. " 'Enjoy that stuff?' he asked the big darky. "Had he enjoyed it! The darky grinned and licked his chops suggestively. " 'Could you eat any more o' that junk?' he asked the big negro. "The negro invited him to try him dared him, in fact, to rind out. ' 'Get a couple more of those sandwiches,' my friend said to the black, and gave him the money to pay for them at the wagon presided over by the negro woman in charge of feeding the gang. 'The black sat down with the other two huge salt pork sandwiches and put them away with the same easy and facile unction that he bad exhibited In disposing of the first two. My friend stood and watched him as he put 'em away. Then be shook his head over and over again. He couldn't understand it. It was beyond reason. His own diet consisted of a little milk with graham wafers, and the idea that any two legged creature could get away with, much less like, such a terrific mess as those four salt pork sandwiches came to oh, it was the world upside down, that was nil. "Well, this dyspeptic friend of mine reminded me of a rather celebrated character who used to live in Washington many years ago now long in the land of the beyond. He was a noted wit and bon vivant. But through excessive and kinkish eating and drinking drinking particularly he had quite ruined his stomach long before 1 ever met him. He had ruined it so thoroughly that he could eat nothing but frozen food frozen consommes, frozen fruits, frozen creams, and the like. In fact, he existed almost wholly on ice cream, which was made particularly for him by a chef whom be employed for fixing up his frozen foods. Hot stuff of any sort was poison to this man with the lining of his stomach nil gone, and even a morsel of the sort of natural food we ordinary mortals partake of would have put him out of the game entirely. "So, with praiseworthy philosophy, this clever and accomplished man resigned himself to the system of getting his gastronomic fun by proxy that is to say, he'd enjoy watching other folks eat. He'd provide the ways ami means. He'd do all of the buying. I've enjoyed some rare old feasts myself at that man's Washington house. I was just one of the good eaters, with a perfect stomach, w hom he had on his list. "He'd rind out the stuff that I or any of the others liked the most, anil then he'd have us come to his bouse to partake of that stuff. There'fl be terrapin, perfectly cooked game of all kinds, iichly fixed vegetables, ornate ami rich pastries, extraordinarily tine coffee, delightfully bouqueted wines everything imaginable, and a good deal of the stuff, as you may imagine, to the last degree indigestible, except for folks whose internal mechanism was of cast iron and in perfect working condition. "And so, with such a spread all set
and in process of being served, this wit, "all in' himself, from the gastro- , n T , nomic point of view, would lean back! Prof' Thaddeus h' C' Lowe' of Pa:a' and just watch us fellows, friends of ,delia- Cal- who recently celebrated his his. eat and enjoy ourselves. He'd be seventy-fifth birthday was the inventor taking little mouthfuls of his frozen of tlie compressed ice machine, and in stuff-a bit of frozen asparagus or 1'' iuad( t-he first artificial ice ever frozen consomme, or the like while produced in this country.
we went on with the feast, and there'd be a wistful gleam in his eyes as he watched us putting away the ducks and the terrapin and the choice wines he wasn't allowed a mouthful of wine even. I should have said. Then when it was nil over there were huso cigars ready for us he wasn't permitted to smoke anything whatever and then we'll just lie back and blow the heavy, odoriferous rings of smoke into his face and enjoy life up to the end of the handle. "Now. e used to wonder if this man wasn't inflicting needless torture upon himself, but it really seemed as if he was not. We used to usk him about that, in fact, and he invariably replied ihat. next t eating the fine truck himself, he enjoyed seeing people capahle of appreciating it and enjoying easing the stuff. I always thought, though, that his ci rious sy rem must Pave involved an immense ttnount of self control and character. "Not only did he like to watch people with tine stomachs eat difficult thing, but he was forever buying choice articles of food for them to tat out of his presence. He had a sort of mania for !.uyi:ig fancy foods :iiul the most cxiteiiSiv e hi the market too. i

A PERSON OBSESSED. The Victim of an Insistent and Cornpuisive Habit of Action. The word '"obsession'' may be defined as au insistent and compu!sivethought, habit of mind or tendency to action. The person so burdened is said to le I obses-sed. ! Few children: are quite free from ob- j session. Some must step on stones: others must walk or avoid cracks; some must ascend the stairs with the j right foot lirst; many must kick posts or touch objects a certain number of times. Some must count the w indows, pictures and figures on the wall paper; ; some must bite the nails or pull the j eye winkers. i Consider the nail biter. It cannot le said that he tolls not, but to what end? Merely to gratify an obsession. He nibbles a little here and a little there; be frowns, elevates his elbow and inverts his finger to reach an otherwise inaccessible corner. Does he enjoy it? No, not exactly, but he would be miserable if he discontinued. It is during childhood that we form most of the automatic habits which are to save time and thought in later life, and it is not surprising that some foolish habits creep in. As a rule, children drop these tendencies at ueed. just as they drop the rules assumed in play, though they are sometimes so absorbing as to cause inconvenience. An interesting instance was that of the boy who had to touch every one wearing auythiug red. On one occasion his whole family lost their train because of the prevalence of his color among those waiting in the station. The longer these tendencies are retained in adult life the greater tho danger of their becoming coercive. And so far as the well established ease is concerned, the obsessive act must Te performed, th'ough the business, social and political world should come to a standstill. A child who must kick posts is father to the man who cannot cat an egg which has been boiled either more or less than four minutes, who cannot work without absolute silence, who cannot sleep if steam pipes crackle and who must straighten out all tangles of his life, past, present and future, before he can close his eyes in slumber or take a vacation.

Iu early and middle life his health was robust, and he was extremely temperate in his habits, "drinking nothing but water throughout bis childhood and down to the close of the period of youth." From the Laurentian portrait wo see further that ho had an intellectual face, with a rather lowbut very massive forehead, a large, straight nose, delicately arched eyebrows, high and well modeled cheek bones and a beautiful mouth, with lips that shut at once firmly ami smilingly.

He began to read from the record, beginning with the incidents of her acquaintance with Stanford White in the Tw enty-fourth-street house. After bringUig nut. admissions from the witnesses relative to happenings in White's studio in the Madison Square Garden, Jerome led the witness rapidly along the trail blazed iy Littleton up to the night of the shooting. Better Nature Disclosed. The witness described the location of their seats on the roof garden. As his wife told of the killing. Thaw moved to another seat, where he could see her face. Mr. Thaw smiled faintly, but. in the smile there was a desperate courage, careless of all consequeunces. She said that after her acquaintance with White she had thought all women were improper person, and that she had thought herself a very degraded person. Afterward, as her knowledge of the world widened, she began tu suspect that there were some good women in the world. It, was then that idle thought, herself unworthy to become the wife of any good man. Again tho prisoner smiled. It seemed a.s though, with every downward drag of his wife's soul Tle-iw felt himself nearer freedom, so much uplifted toward the pinnacle of justification. lint this strange man only sat in his chair with curved hand and flaring ears listening to the testimony of the woman he had married knowingly. The path chosen by Jerome was not altogether a smooth one. The witness was undeniably clever.

This was a fair sample of the wiry In which the harassed woman occasionally turned on Jerome. When the witness confessed to Thaw that she could not marry aim on account of Stanford Whit', she was not ihinking of tho Thaw family at all, she said; tdie had refused him instinctiv ly, feeling that it was not right. This was ufter Jerome had hadied and rehashed the revolting detail w hich on Friday he said should never be told in opev coin't. Jerome brought out the fact that the viliK'ss had told Stanford White that Harry Thaw was "very thin and ugly," and for a time the risoner seemed pained. He is undoubtedly vain of his position as star actor in the drama New Feature Introduced. Hut one new feature appeared in the testimony of t:ie witness. This was w hen she told about Thaw sw allowing the contents of a lortle of laudanum at Monte Carlo in 19l In aa attempt to end his life. Previoi'Hly to thla. at the Grand hotel in New York, Thawhad talked of suicide, his wife declared, and had suggested that bhe also should take poison, as both their lives had boon ruined.
