10TII AUniVERSARY OF PATRICK CASE

Remarkable Murder Trial in New York City Is Recalled Today. NEW YORK, March 27. Ten years ago today Albert T. Patrick, after a highly sensational trial lasting more than two months, was found guilty by ft Jury In the Court, of General Sessions, Manhattan, of having murdered William Marsh Rice, of Houston, Tex., an aged and eccentric millionaire who, sit the time of his death lived in a fine old residence on Madison Avenue, Manhattan. On April 7, 1902, Patrick was sentenced to die In the electric chslr on May S following, but the sentence was never executed. Immediate' ly after he had been sentenced, Patrick began the memorable and unparalleled fght for his life and liberty and for the vindication of his honor, which lias not yet reached Its end. 'The fact that Patrick, now under life sentence at Sing Sing, Is planning another effort to obtain his release under the habeas corpus law In the near future, makes a review of this famous case on the anniversary of Patrick's conviction doubly Interesting. William Marsh Rice died at his New York residence on September 23, 1900, vnder somewhat peculiar clrcumstan: ces. The exact cause of his death was never established, as (he statements of the experts conflicted. The prosecution claimed that the old man had died from the effects of inhaling chloroform, while the defense contended that he had, died a natural death, from indigestion caused by over-indulgence In bananas. The only person with Mr, Alee at the time of his death was his valet, Charles F. Jones. On the day after Rice's death Patrick, who had been a practicing lawyer In Houston, Tex., but had removed to New York city In 1892, presented at one of the New York banks several checks aggregating $125,000, bearing the alleged signature of Mr. Rice and made payable to Patrick. A mistake In the spelling of Patrick's first name attracted the attention of the bank officials and when they learned that Mr. Rice had died the day before, they refused to honor the checks and notified the police authorities. Patrick and Jones had arranged to have the body of Mr. Rice cremated nd the body was actually on its way to the crematory, when the police interfered and began an Investigation. Jones, Mr. Rice's valet, was arrested on suspicion and, being put through the third degree, confessed that, at the Instigation of Patrick he had Hilled Mr. Rice by chloroforming him. After his alleged confession Jones tried to commit suicide in the Tombs. Patrick, after a preliminary hearing on April 16, tm held for trial on a charge of murder and his trial began on January 20. It was shown in the course of the trial that Patrick had been the attorney for the heirs of Mr. Rice s wire wno naa aiea in a sanatorium In Wisconsin and had first become acquainted with Mr. Rice in that capacity. It was alleged that it was Patrick who had Induced Mr. Rice to conseqt to a settlement with the heirs. It was contended by the prosecution that the will leaving the bulk of the Rice estate to Patrick in trust had been forged by Patrick and that the latter had persuaded Jones to 'kill his master,, so as to leave Patrick's hands free. Patrick was convicted and four days later married. In his cell in the Tombs, Mrs. Addle M. Francis, with Whom he had been boarding. Patrick carried his remands for a ttew trial from court to court and having been refused a new trial and sentenced to death for the third time, appealed to the U. S. Supreme Court In August of 1906. In December of that year Governor Hughes commuted the prisoner's sentence to life Imprisonment, but Patrick continued his fight, demanding either death or liberty. After a number of futile attempts to obtain a writ of habeas corpus Patrick auccoeded to obtain such a writ from Justice Gaynor of the New York Supreme court, which was, however, finally denied by the Appellate Division In Brooklyn on December 2, 1909.

Easter Egg Party. One clever hostess gave an egg party to a friend who was to be married after Easter, the entertainment taking the form of a novel shower. A large basket on the table, says the Housekeeper, was filled with egg shaped packages on which was a placard. "Spring Eggs Strictly Fresh." Then followed some clever tableaux of the old woman who -went to market her eggs for to sell, falling asleep on the king's highway. The peddler , "stout" comes in, steals her basket and runs and presents it to the bride to be (who is in the audience). The awakening of the old woman, her woe over the discovery of the loss of her basket and of her petticoats cut all round about and the entrance of the family dog. which began to bark while, she began to cry. were all strictly in accordance with the well known nursery time. . After the bride bad. examined her eggs and the parcels containing her gifts all went to luncheon, where the Easter motif was observed throughout A basket of fancy eggs formed the centerpiece. Oval shaped frames of stiff white paper were slashed to represent a broken egg. and the face of the hostess peeped out of the novel souvenir at each place, while violet tinted, egg shaped baskets served for bonbon dishes. The menu was chiefly in gold and white, while artificial violets added a dainty touch to many of the dishes. What We 8heuld Learn. Learn to laugh. A good laugh is better than medicine.

A police sergeant was going the rounds when he saw a policeman, whom we'll call Mullaney, go into an undertaker's shop -where there Is generally a pinochle game in the back room. He knew there was no back way out for Mullaney, so "rounds" plauted himself by the door and waited. After a time he sent in word by one of the men working in the shop that he knew Mullaney was in there and that he bad better come back on post, because tho longer he waited the worse the complaint against him would read. There was much commotion in the back room, and as there were a number of coffins being loaded into a wagon outside they put Mullaney in a coffin and loaded him on the wagon. Then they drove him down the street a couple of blocks, and Mullaney climbed out. He strolled back up to where the sergeant was doggedly watching the door and saluted. "Hello, rounds! Pleasant ' evening, isn't it?" he said. And the sergeant stared for a moment and then stamped away too mad to speak. New York Sun. An Iconoclast.

BRAIN SUCCESSFULLY TRANSFERRED TO SKULL OF A CIIICIIHIATI REALTY MAU

BALTIMORE, Md., March 27. An operation that in the history of science has never had a parallel, either in delicacy or in skill, has been performed at Johns Hopkins, hospital by Dr. Harvey Cushing, world renowned brain specialist, and the patient, as a result, is on the road to recovery, thus indicating that the operation, which until a month ago was thought practically impossible by the best authorities on brain disorders, will prove a success. The patient, William Buckner, a prominent deal estate dealer of Cincinnati, came to Baltimore November 23 last, Buffering, with a peculiar af fection of the brain. For weeks before his arrival in this city he had been in a state of semi-coma, except at intervals, when he would awaken and seem well. When it was least expected, ho would wall over and lapse again into unconsiousness. The disease asserted itself about seven months ago when Mr. Buckner was making a deal with one of his customers. He brought the conversa tion to an abrupt end and walked, absent-mindedly from his office to his home. On arriving home he seemed to be in full possession of his facilities, but during the evening meal he fell from his place at the table to the floor unconscious. He was revived, but several days later began to complain of feeling a continual drowsiness. This drowsiness terminated in a com plete state of coma within a few 'days. On his arrival here Mr Buckner was placed under thejre of Dr. Cushing. His case was a puzling one, but after X-ray examinations, during which photographs of the brain were taken. Dr. Cushing discovered that a portion of the brain had decayed and frayed tissues were causing the healthy sections to gradually become affected. The case at that time seemed hopeless, althouh Mr. Buckner seemed in no immediate danger of death. tl was evident, however, that if something was not done it would only be a matter of time before the entire brain was destroyed, resulting in death for the patient. Mrs. Buckner was informed of the existing conditions just when Dr. Cushing was ready to give up hope. She pleaded with the physician, and he at last agreed , to try an experiment in an effor to save Mr. Buckner's life. Dr. Cushing decided to procure the brain of another patient as soon after death as possible and to" transplant a portion of it into the skull of Mr. Buckner. The brain had to he healthy and from as young a person as possible. The transplanting of the brain and the procuring of it were too widely different things, however, and this was the difficult yconfronting the physician when one of his colleagues casually mentioned that a child born in one of the wards had just died of inanition. Here was the opportunity. Dr. Cushing hurried to the ward, and after obtaining permission removed the brain. Assistants had rushed Mr. Buckner to the operating room and prepared him for the ordeal. Then in view of about a score of professors and students Dr. Cushing performed his greatest' operation. After administering the anaesthetic he removed the back of Mr. Buckner's skull and with great care took out the entire brain, which was placed on a piece of linen beside the head, and could be heen to pulsate with each heart beat of the patient. The diseased portion then was very carefull severed from the minor brain, and while Dr. Cushing was severing the diseased section another surgeon was transplanting the infants brain. The major brain was left untouched. After the transplantation the entire brain was restored to its proper place CLEANS SINKS 1 Rei Removes stains from enamel ii and Iroons ttw dink iweflt. anil clean.

and the section of the skull which had been cut out was replaced. Mr. Buckner stood the operation exceedingly well, and a week ago it was thought he was well enough to leave the institution. With his wife at his side he was removed to the home of relatives in Charlottesville, ;Va,, but several days ago his condition became grave and he was sent back to the Johns Hopkins hospital'. Dr. Cushing today replanted the tissues of the newly inserted member and late tonight Mr. Buckner was said to be considerably improved.
