WILL THURSDAY BE HARRY THAW'S "JONAH DAY?"
Asserted That the Prosecution Will Close Its Case and Judge Dowling Will Charge The Jury Before Noon. SUMMING UP OF EVIDENCE TO BE CONCISE IT IS SAID. Both the Defense and Prosecution Desire to Bring the Hearing to a Halt Evelyn's Testimony Will Stand. New York, a.In. .s. Attorney LittleIon, for the defense, announced that he would begin summing up in the Thaw Trial tomorrow morning. .Jerome said it would take him only about, three hours to close the prosecution's rase. Judge DowJing's charge to the jury will begin probably Thursday morning and the case will go to the jury, it is thought, by noon Thursday. Hummell's testimony was admitted and was read in return for a concession. Jerome consented to the admission a.s evidence the Thaw will which was made on his wedding day. Several minor witnesses were examined iu rebuttal. An English physician, one of the three men of medicine who testified yesterday, gave the name of "mania-depressive" or isub-aeute mania to Thaw's mental condition. Dr. Sydney Russell "Wells, of London, made the diagnosis during an oul break by Thaw in London in lStK.t. when, with a normal temperature, Thaw demanded that the walls of his room in a tirsing home be torn down that he might have air and put twenty tons of ice in the apartment to cool it. Mr. Litleton's question which was a complete resume of the evidence, with the exception, as District Attorney Jerome pointed out. of the thestimony of James Clinch Smith, brother-in-law of Stanford White, who talked "with Thaw for fifteen minutes just before the shooting on the roof of Madison Square garden. The question contained some islxteen thousand words. Explains "Mania-Depreesi ve" Insanity. Dr. Wagner was asked to explain "mania-depressive" insanity to the jury, one of the foreign physicians having employed this term to Thaw's outbreaks abroad. The witness said it was a circular form of insanity where the periods of maniacal violence wera followed by spells of depression or melancholia and then by a period of sanity, the same process recurring from time to time. Justice Dowling put a series of very Important questions to the witness evidently for the purpose of his own guidance in the event of a verdict of acquittal on the ground of insanity when it was in the discretion of the court to commute the defendant to an asylum for the criminal insane. Evelynn Thaw's Evidence Stands. District Attorney Jerome moved that all of the evidence of Kvelyn Nesbit Thaw be stricken from the record on the ground that she had not produced in evidence the fourteen letters from Stanford White she showed Thaw iu Paris. He said that only part of her story had been told so that certain evidence had been selected for presentation and other evidence left out. Mr. Littleton objected to the district attorney making a speech and Justice Dowling said there was no necessity to proceed further. He overruled the motion.

Great DisMany things have been advertised in the local papers for human ailments, but nothing has created the talk and enthusiastic praise in this city and vicinity like Root Juice. Most of those who take the remedy a short while cannot say too many good things for the scientist and his wonderful health-promoting discovery. While hero the scientist said: "The medicine does not cure disease; it simply removes the cause and gives nature a chance. That is why so many people get well after taking the Juice a short while." Many local people permitted their names to be published in this paper because the remedy cured them and they continue lo report at A. (!. Luken's drug stora some great good the Juice is doing. It is certainly a great medicine for the stomach, liver and kidneys.

RELEASED Young Man Accused of Stealing Watch Given His Freedom by Court. IS OF GOOD CHARACTER. Charles Iett, colored, charged with petit larceny, has been released on his own recognizance. This morning iu the circuit court the young colored man was givf-n a hearing. Officers from Portland. Ind.. his former home, testified that while- a resident of that town. Lett had always borne a good reputation. Lett was Miarged with stealing a watch from the home of George K. Dilks, Spring drove. ACADEMIC COSTUMES. Square Cap or Berretta Hood Survival of the Ancient Cope. Academic costume was originally the ordinary dres3 of the period in which It was prescribed. Mediaeval statutes were directed uot to the wearing of any particular robe, but against extravagant taste in or deficiencies of dress. At Heidelberg, for instance, students were forbidden to go out without boots "unless clad in a garment reach ing to the heels." The most purely , academic part of the costume was thej pquare cap or lerretta. with a tuft on j the top (in lieu of the very modern i tassel), which was the distinctive j badge of the mastership. Its posses- j pion was much coveted, and, according i to one authority, "it is only in post mediaeval times that the berretta, tlrst j without, then with, the sacred 'apes,' I lias been usurped, first by bachelors, ; then by undergraduates and now (outside the universities) by mere choristers or school boys." The gown, or toga, on the other hand, was an tinofficial robe or cassock of various colors, the favorite at Oxford being "green, blue or blood color." j The hood is a survival of the ancient cappa, or cope, which is still to be peen j in the official robes of the chancellor of ; Cambridge. It formed part of the gar- i . ... . , . . : ment, like the cowl of a monks robe, ' . . . . i and was not restricted to graduates, . . ,. ,. , . , T . being the ordinary clerical dress, and not even exclusively clerical. "It Is only the material of the hood which was characteristic of degree or office," the use of minever, for instance, being confined to masters. "Silk hoods came in perhaps toward the end of the fourteenth century as a summer alternative for masters, whose winter fur hoods were something more than an honorary appendage in the uuwarmed schools and churches of mediaeval times." At Oxford undergraduates lost their hoods in 14MO, but it was not till "about the beginning of Queen Eliza1,1, ; , " l,n.

Paris in Never bad the empire seemed more assured, the court more brilliant, the fetes more gorgeous. The liht hearted Parisians reveled in the daily sights of royal processions and cavalcades. The Bois le Boulogne and the Champs Elysees, where we were living at that time, were crowded with splendid equipages.

A remarkable story is told about the discovery of the cotton plant in India tome years ago. Two gentlem n were driving out to dinner near Bombay, one the host ami the other his guest. On both sides of the road were hedge. It was getting dark, but the guest noticed some white stuff on the top of the hedges all the way along and at length told his friend that he thought it looked like cotton. His friend ordered the native driver to stop, and the two Englishmen got down and examined. The guest was right. It was cotton of an extraordinary strong staple. Both men were cotton experts, and yet the host, who had driven along the same road for years, had passed the cotton without recognizing It. The guest Immediately proceeded to buy up these hedges, for except them there were none that he had seen during a twelve years' residence in India. During his Investigations he discovered that natives often had one or two cotton trees In their gardens, and the English club compounds possessed three or four in different parts of India, but nowhere except in this Bombay district did be see cotton growing in such luxuriant abundance. He bought up every tree and plant he could, for not a single native European imagined that it was a cotton tree that he possessed In his garden. Cotton Age. Lighted Streets In Europe. The lst lighted street in Europe, declares a "weekly paper, is Unter den Linden, in Berlin. Perhaps it i, but Tve would not be sure. In the torrent seamed hills of th Jura, where water power is as cheap as anywhere in the world, there are little French villages in which every tiny cottage has its electric light installation, and the central street, that one could almost Jump across, is flooded by the beams of arc lamps that would do credit to the Strand. However, the Berlin boulevard, otherwise a disappointing thoroughfare, is certainly well illuminated. Flate glass.
