H$T*Ja«O on In a paper on defectives, read by Dr. Martin W. Barr, chief physician of the Pennsylvania school for feeble mind ed children, before the summer school of philanthropy at the charities build ing, a remarkable instance was men tioned by him of eccentricity that has caused comment in scientific circles. It was the case of an American mul timillionaire who is living in far east ern countries and leading a life of such peculiarity as to be almost incredible, I says a New York report. According to Dr. Barr, this man is a : neurotic. It is estimated that his for tune is in the neighborhood of $10,- 000,000,but no attempt has been made to have him declared incompetent; he is left free to run his course. His family are refined and socially promi nent. Whenever they speak of the son’s course, they refer to it as his “nervousness.” They will not admit that he has a deranged intellect, though he has left friends and posi tion here to take up a life among the “Hanins,” the grave diggers and so cial outcasts of the far east. “He was a physician, rich, handsome, cultured, of aesthetic tastes,” said Dr. Barr in his paper, “a graduate tot one of the most prominent medical colleges mi America, and a man who had made a pronounced hit as a specialist. His fortune enabled him to secure every medical appliance known to science and for some years he en joyed phenomenal success. Wine and women proved his bane. He sank lower and lower. His peculiarities no longer tolerated at home, he drifted from capital to capital of Eu rope, and finally established himself in Japan. With an appetite still un satisfied, he exhibited new phases of moral degeneration, causing pis body to be tattooed with wonderful skill, every picture a work of art. Hrs back bore a huge dragon^ shading of every scale showing per fection of detail. This, on revisiting America, with utmost vanity he shamelessly exposed. He was tugn^d out of the clubs. ‘ 1 Returning to Japan, be bought a performing bear and wandered from place to place clad in the garb of Hanin, exhibiting himself and his bear, and distributing photographs of each and all in endless variety. ‘•This master of eccentricity,” said Dr. Barr, “shocking both Europe and America, and astounding even Jap anese next hired a squad of Japan ese boys, practically buying them outright from their parents, who. at tired in full uniform, are trained in military exercises. To these are op posed an equal number of monkeys, dressed as Chinese soldiers, and thje war of China and Japan is constantly renewed for the entertainment of him self and his satélites, who watch in the ecstacy of delight the suffering of the poor brutes. Rewards are of fered, and the more bloody the con test and the greater the atrocities, the more intense the gratification.” AN EXTRAORDINARY COW. “It does me good to ride downtown with Slick in the morning,” remarked a middle-aged citizen, according to a story in the Detroit Free Press. “He lives out in the suburbs and there is always something doing out there. Before Dick left town his wife and >>aby were the smartest on earth, and now that he has become a country jake his horses, cows, dogs and chick ens are the smartest on earth. There he is now; just you go and sit by him and start him on his cow.” “Hello, Dick, how are you? Jlow’a the farm? How’s your cow?” asked the mean man, who went over to sit by the farm novice. “Oh, the farm’s all right; and the cow—” replied Dirk; “well, she ought to be teaching school—that's a fact. She’s the smartest cow I ever saw. Last night, sir. when she came up to he milked—she’s not one of these silly, feeble-minded cows that have to have somebody drive them up to get their feed—no, sir, when Joseph ine came up she was alone—the little Jersey heifer. Daisy, that we bought to keep her company in the pasture, was not with her \Ve didn’t worry, for we thought Daisy bad loitered and would come along soon. “But Josephine acted strangely. We couldn’t get her in the barn at all; she stood in the lane looking to ward the pasture and bawled ami bawled and bawled. We thought she was only calling Daisy to hurry up and come home. StiU she wouldn't go in and still she kept on bawling. Then somebody suggested that Daisy might be in trouble of some kind; so we all left Josephine and went down into the pasture. “She stopped fowling aa we started down the lane. and. sure enough. at the farthest corner of the pasture, in a little triangle of land where three wire fences cross each other, making a queer little pen. was Mies I>aiay. She had got in. out of girlish curiosity, «nd couldn’t get out. We had to pull down a piece ef fence to get her out. Now. wasn’t Josephine smart? I think so.” The other men all said that Joeeph- ine ought to have a telephone out In the pasture so she could call up the house when Daisy got in trouble. FREE! FREE! FREE !
