EffKIOf PESSIMISTIC UTfRATURE
The trial for murder of Charles Brunke,
which ended with his conviction and the
imposition of a sentence to eight years of
simple imprisonment was one of the most
sensational trials held for many years.
Brunke was a bank clerk and shot and
killed the beautiful sitters Haars, aged
twenty and twenty-two on October 17
of last year.
According to the evidence Brunke is a
type of the German degenerate, corrupted
by decadent and pessimistic literature,
leading to meglomania and contempt of
life. The evidence of the accused was
remarkable. He said he was an enthusi
astic student of Kant, Schopenhauer,
Spinoza, Nietzsohe and Ibsen. He re
garded suicide as allowable, even desira
ble, He had written three plays, one
called "The Eccentric." in which he de
lineated his own character and career.
The prison doctors stated that Brunke
was sane, but, as the Crown prosecutor
only demanded nine and a half years im
prisonment he was apparently of the
opinion that the prisoners mind was unbalanced.
Brunke thrilled a packed court by
calmly describing his shooting of the
isters as tfey sat side by side In arm
chairs at their instigation and with their
full consent The father of the girls, a
merchant, gave his daughters excellent
characters, as' amiable, quiet, innocent
girls. It transpired that the mother of
the girls had since committed suicide
through grief.
It is a courtesy to your guests to see
that their names appear in the local news
paper. It ie due to your friends and
yourself that, when visiting, their names
should appear in the paper. Some one in
the family ehould inform the newspaper
of sickness in the home. Remember.
that the news paper is made by human
hands and brains, and if the item con
cerning yourself or your friend does not
appear it is largely your fault. No news
