Teachers have testified that he waa slow in his studies and lacked concentration. Society women and girls have told of his peeullarltles in. the way of - attempting "mashes" and writing them silly and foolish letters, and other witnesses have pointed out' many 'inci dence in bis life which would have been forgotten or overlooked but for the fact that be la on trial for his life and his attorneys have decided that Insanity la about the only thing that will aave him from the gallows. for the past two days the testimony has been almost featureleas, all being son of Mrs. Charles Segbers of this city, and Charles Knox, a deckhand, left the vessel to hunt food for their shipmates. bll sard arose and the men became sepa rated. Knox aept uu and eomeu days later brought up at Hersohell Island.
