She never, never played a trick
On ber pet pu-sy "Tib";

She always kept her drtsses clean;
Her curls were brutshed just rigM ;
She never cripd and coaxed that she
Might stay op late at night.
And very often! when I've been
In mischief and, been bad,
I think, "Ain't it an awful ehame
That I took after Dad?"

was desirous of leaving the room
while the money was being passed
from juror to juror for identifica
tion. The bill-, two of $20 denom
ination and another of $10 denomi
nation, were covered wiib blood and
they were repeatedly referred to as
money whicb. Sidney had stated he
had received from his alleged ac
complice in the crime and had been
taken from tbe dead man.
Policeman McDermolt t elated the
two confessions Sidney Slcane made
to him. In the first one the accus
ed said another man killed James
Sloane, : robbed bim of $5oo and
gave him $50. In the second, ac
cording to McDermott, joim
Sloane admitted his guilt and de
scribed bis ffforts to wipe out the
bloodstains and get the body from
the house.
The testimony of today was sub
stantive of the insanity plea. Wit
nesses, followed in rapid eucceeoion,
who teld of Sidney Sloan's excen
tricities and indiscretions, border
ing on insanity, of which he had
been guilty in his early youth. The
strong features introduced by the
defenee in its efforts to prove Sidney
Sloane's mental derangement were:
Rev. Mr. Roberts testified that
Sidney imagined himself a goddess,
and he ran nbked through the
Sloane rfsidence," in the presence
of three women visitors1 and the
witness. J He said Sidney had my
thology read to bim at his' home
when he was about ten jears of age;
that fiO'D observations white at
school and at home,; he had formed
th opinion that Sidney was insane.
Misb May O. B ydstou. bi foi-
mer, scboolttacber, said .Silney
would tit ' sucking a thumb and
drtamlrg, and was not broken of
the habit ven when the witness tied
tbe thumb , with a s ring; that he
was deficient in his learning; and
was only advanced half a year after
spending one year in her class.
, Mi3 Minnie Kllner, who taught
Sloane in kindergarten, says he
would .be tardy an? hour or two
hours, and when reprimanded
would not realize he was late. She
never knew of another child like
Sidney Sloane in ber I5 years' ex-
vcriauue in conducting a kindergar
ten. Professor B. F. Boone said Sid
ney would steal small articles of
wearing apparel from other stud
ents, and the latfr were compelled
to lock their doors. i '
Bos'on, Nov. 23. Mrs. Hatty
G eeii, who is making her residence
here because it is cheaper to board
in Boston than to keen house in
Bellows Falls, Vermont, predicts a
revolution beciuse of the action of
thf trusts. ' . " '. .
It would hardly be expectpd that
tbe richest woman in the United
States would be a trust-buster,' yet
Mrs. Green is egainst trusts. She
thinks them as ; iniquitous as are
lawyers.
"There in going to be a revolution
in this country," said Mrs. Green.
Pt-ople are going to revolt against
oppressions of trusts. There will
be a deluge and these streets will
run with blood.
i "People are gradually finding out
about trusts. When they rtaliz-s
how:. they are ruining the chances
pr people there will b an outbreak,"
