On attractive display In the win
dows of the Salem Electric com
pany are 20 varieties of choice
gladioli from the garden of Mrs,
W. W. Rosebraugh, 1422 State
stfeet. Many passergby stopped
during the; day to admire the un
usually lovely stalks of blooms.
The varieties exhibited include:
Butterfly, Prince of Wales, Orange
Glory, Jack London, Jennie Lind,
Schwaben, j Canary Bird, Golden
Princess, Marshall Foch, McKib
ben, Heleu Todd, Evelyn Kirk
land, Youlk avorite, Pride of Gosh
en, Anlimin Queen, Rouge Tdrch,
Tyrian Beauty, Purple Glory,
Golden Measure, Mary Fennel, and
Mona Lisa,; and Black Pansy.
. Mrs. Rosebraugh has altogether
more than a hundred different
varieties of gladioli, which this
year began to bloom "on June 25.
They will continue : in season
through the summer till frost.
Monte Brecia is used for the most
part In. the planting as a border
to keep down the growth of the
outer gladioli stalks- Beds of new
seedlings add interest to the gar
den. Mrs. Rosebraugh has secur
ed her varieties largely from Die
ner In California and Kundard in
Indiana, both famous producers.
It was Kundard who originated
the ruffled-corolla varieties. .
1 Especially distinctive among the
bulbs .now . In bloom is Purple
Glory, of a deep royal shade. One
of the choicest of th4 varieties is
Golden Measure, the stalks all
thickly set with deep, creamy cor
ollas. Rouge Torch is one of the
most interestingly marked. The
Evelyn Kirkland, with pink
blooms, carries streaked corollas.
Canary Bird attracts Immediate at
tention for the graceful slender
ness of Us stems. Autumn Glory
is suggestive of the turning leaves
while the exquisite contrast var
iety, Mona Lisa, merges into the
lavender. ,
Mrs. Rosebraugh has grown
most of her gladioli from the tiny
bulblets, the strength of the bulbs
depending largely upon the regu
lar cutting away of the flowers
before they fade on the stalk.

Conditions Unfavorable ;;
"Did you ever in your life make
an examination as to a mental
condition , under such clrcum
stances.V asked Benjamin Bachrac
of defense counsel of Dr. Patrick.
I think not," replied the psychiatrist-
. Virtually the same question was
asked later of Dr. Church by Mr.
Dai row; and gained approximately
the same response.
"Too! many persons were pres
ent for nan ideal. examination," and
!really there were very few ques
tions asked," were replies of Dr.
Churchl
Dr. (jhurch agreed with defense
ali'enistp that the endocrine glands
have an influence on human con
duct. r
Alienist Agrees With Defense
Dr. (phurch qualified as an ex
pert on endocrinology, saying he
thought he reported the first case.
The pineal gland, described by the
defense; as having calcified at a
very early age In Leopold, Dr.
Church! said, was one of the dom
inating! influences, in mental life
and character.
Dr. Church admitted that j the
present! ages of Loeb and Leopold
are within the 'trying period of a
young, j man's life." and that no
doctor jnor teacher could examine
youths -of their age without taking
that into consideration. The state
alienist further agreed with the
presentation of the defense alien
ists claims of mental sickness in
the yojuths by an admission that
if Loeb's phantasy of being a de
tective had lasted from childhood
into young manhood, it would be
"abnorjmal." V '
- Dr. Church was excused from
the witness stand with a final
question as to who had retained
him t act for the prosecution.
As in the instance of Dr. Patrick,
who testified , yesterday he was
paid aj. daily fee of $2." 0. Dr.
Church said he was first ap
proached by Samuel Ettelson. for
