trials tot murder Jerome turned tpconsideration of the testimony adducedin the present hearing and read intothe record from the previous trials whichtends to prove that Thaw inherited ataint of Insanity The district attorneyassured the Justice that It needed nottho testimony of alienists to convince theaverage thinking man of the absolutelyInevitable result of tainted ancestry uponIts science Heredity he said Is thedark background of the whole matter

Thaws Bad HeritageThis Is the situation said Jerome In

closing Hero Is a man who had a badherl ajge whoso childhood was burdenedwith a highly neurotic condition andwhoso early manhood was spent In dis-

sipation Fifteen experts have swornthat he was insane at the time he shotWhite Nino of these sworo that he wasIn Incurable paranoiac Three expertsagainst tho weight of all the others nowsay he is sane

If your honor should release this manthe future alone will test the wlsdno ofyour decision J dont think It toallow him to go at large wlthcat asearching medical examination by ex-ports such as has been denied in theseproceedings by the relator himself

Morschausor in his summing up laidparticular emphasis upon the contentionthat the question for the justice to

is not whether Thaw was Insanewhen he shot White but whether he isinsane at the present time Tho counsel put much emphasis on the testimony-of Dr Baker of Mattoawan who saidthat he had not been able to see anytraces of paranoia in his prisoner sincehis removal there Ho asserted that notono who had seen Thaws actions Incourt during the present hearing couldhave said that he was naught but a saneman

Justice Mills announced no change ofhis intention to make known his decision-on Thursday

WEST IN CONTEST

LOSES TO IAHOOL

Baltimores Mayor SnatchesVictory in Golf Game

SHOT THE BALL HIGH AND FAR

Gallery Forced to Gasp as the Com-

missioner Went Down to DefeatWeryring an Many Different Smilesas There Are Points in the GameMahools Reputation at Stake

Putting the ball with exceeding groatskill yes putting the ball with the grimdetermination that always broods oer impending eminent golfer andpatriot J Barry Mahool mayor of Bal-timore natchod victory out of the avidclutch of Commissioner Henry L Westyesterday afternoon and made tho gameeven up at the eighteenth hole

Twaa his honors last chance Thehonor of the Monumental City was atstake The tantalizing little gutta perchalay on the fringe of the green far far-away from tho little cup at the centerOnly championship golf could hope tonegotiate that shot But the mayor ofBaltimore did not quail His eye meas-ured that stretch of greensward and asmall blow from tho putter sent the guttapercha scudding across true as an arrow It slowed up and hesitated andthen coq ottlshly sought its proper terminus and settled cozily Into tho hole

Gasped In AmazementTho gallery gapped with amazement

His game gone glimmering Commissioner West who had already assimilatedthe sweets of victory was compelled toadmit that Mayor Mohool was somegolfer It meant that the thrilling foursome had ended a tie CommissionerWest end his team mate were quite un-

prepared for such a grand stand finishWell truth is stranger than fiction

said a Washingtonian I never thought-a B lmore man could make such apretty shot as that It s ems impossible-I suppose that postpones CommissionerWests final victory The next game willhave to be played on the Baltimore linksNow you cant tell what kind of finework Mayor Mahool will get in beforethat Perhaps we have a real fight onour hands

It was recognized at the outset thatMayor Mahool would be at a big disad-vantage playing on the Columbia golflinks which he had never before MenOn this account the foursome or-ganized Maj J J Morrow former Engi-neer Commissioner of the District wasassigned as the mayors partner and WH Moses played with Commissioner West

The trio Journeyed down to the UnionStation to wolcome the Baltimorean toour fair city They cried out in chorusas he hove into sight

You see we take pity upon thee Oneof us is going to help you out We arenot going to let you play unaided onnoble links which you never beforecast eyes upon

Quite overwhelmed by this kindness themayor surrendered himself to the gen-erous trio and awaited tho outcome ofthe day without misgivings Withoutdelay they went arminarm to the glo-

rious stretch of hliVs out at the ColumbiaClub and swung their brassies and cloaksand niblicks out of the bags

From the start the foursome proved anoven match Neither side was able togain any great lead When West andMoses procured a toad of two holes theythought the game was safe But theseesaw continued and at the seventeenthhole the WestMoses combination wasone up Surely with sn even break ofluck at the eighteenth hole they figuredthe game was theirs But it was not tobe

ainhooi Was SurprisedMayor Mahool was as surprised as any-

one at the outcome of the game and Im-

mediately Invited Commissioner West toplay off the tie in the Monumental CityAs the match stands now CommissionerWest has won ono match and must winanother to gain the championship forWashington

Mayor Mahool W M Moees Maj Mor-row and Irving Williamson wore theguests of Mr West at dinner after themighty struggle At 10 oclock MayorMahool left Washington for his homecityNo

SOIL IMPOVERISHED-

ON CAPITOL

Experts Recommend RadicalSteps for Renewal

NEGLECTED FOR MANY YEARS

Scientists Advise Vic of Fertilizerand Planting with Covipca to BePlowed In When Green and

by Lime Dressing Def-icient In Organic Matter

It the recommendation of exports freesBureau of Soils United States De-

partment of Agriculture is followed outby Elliott Woods superintendent of theCapitol Building and grounds whoa Con-

gress convenes next December it will nodthe Capitol lawns plowed up to bo plant-ed in cowpeas

This recommendation is the resultexamination of the soils of the Capitol

grounds by H H Bennett soil expertand Dr Oswald Schreiner of the laboratory force at the request of Mr Woodsowing to the Inability of the gardeners-to get grass to grow on certain sectionsof the grounds After recommending thatcertain kinds of manure bo on thegrounds the report says

The examination of the lawns showedthat there wero considerable areas lawhich the grass was either suffering se-verely or had died out on account ofinsufficient supply of raolsure Boringswere made and the soil was found to bevariable in texture ranging from goodmellow loam to hard compact sandyloam

Hard and LifelessBelow a depth of twelve to eighteen

inches considerable rubbish in the shapeof fragments of stone brickbatswas encountered Spots were found inall these lawns in which poor structuralconditions obtained and on which thegrass was nearly or completely parchedThe soil in these areas was so hard thatit was difficult to penetrate it with anaugur while in the better portions theaugur penetrated readily on account of agood mellow structure

The soU of the nonproductive areaswas very dry and had a bleached lifelessappearance Water from the sprinklerseemed to be unable to enter the soil insuch places

Laboratory examinations showed thatthe soil was not acid and it thereforeappears that the difficulty rests mainlyIn the unfavorable material or filling thelack of organic matter and lack of soiltreatment The water holding capacity-of a soil deficient in organic matter isalways much lower than in case of goodmellow loam or land that contains enoughorganic matter to prevent compacting andhardening A good grass soil should con-tain a considerable quantity of clay uni-formly mixed with sand and slit andthis should rest upon a cfkyey founda-tion Had this point held in viewwhen the soil material was hauled inthere would not now be this trouble ofpoor grass on unsuitable land It wasfurther found that the lawn had re-ceived neither fertilizer nor any specialtreatment for a period of many years

Organic Material EssentialIt is absolutely essential to Introduce

into these soils some form of organicmanure This can be accomplished byspreading over tho soil in the fall wellrotted stable manure which is as freo aspossible from detrimental weed seedsThis should be fine and well decomposed-so that It will be carried beneath thesurface of the grass by rains and showersduring the winter leaving very little ma-terial to be raked oft in tho spring-

A good treatment would bo to plow tholand in the lato summer or early tall toft depth of from six to eight inches soas to subject that material to the bene-ficial action of winter freezes This wouldloosen up tho compact places have atendency to aerate tho soil and allow themoisture to penetrate deeper Cowpeasor soy beans should be planted the following year and plowed under greenwhen nearly grown

Following this burnt lime should beapplied broadcast to the surface at therate of from 1000 to 2000 pounds per acreAfter a good rain tho lime should bethoroughly harrowed In and tho soilreduced to a good tilth before seeding-to grass The gras should be given awinter top dressing of well decomposedmanure

In this way there would bo secured-a tilth favorable to the retention of asupply of molsturo sufficient for healthyplant development

SuccessThe New Model

Middaugh Shannon Inc

Home of a Hundred IdeasIn Woodley Park

7350Containing the combined ideas of the men and women of Washington-

The great rapidity with which these homes are selling is ample assurance to us that the per-

sistent energy we expended in formulating into a practical home the combined ideas of both menand women of Washington is fully appreciated-

It is evident that our work has resulted in the production of a home far removed from the ordinary and a value which you cannot well afford to overlook

Warm were the expressions of pleasure over the quaint innovations the comforts the generaldelightfulness of these homes

It is a fact that the homeloving people declared that the homes far exceeded their expecta-tions and it is a deservedly honest statement to say that we intended they should be pleased

We grant that the production of so handsomely a finished home at this price and especially inWoodley Park would have been entirely out of reason were it not for the extremely fortunatepurchase of ground at an advantageous figure ground purchased not at the present asking pricesbecause these prices prohibit the building of so moderate a priced secured before itstrue value was appreciated and before others saw its magnificent possibilites-

An inspection of these homes enlarges ones viewpoint of what a home ought to tje and provesthat the ideal home costs no more than a house barren of the features that are comprised in thesehomes

Having at heart the question of erecting homes for our people we have considered it fromevery point

We are convinced therefore that in time this city will be filled with homes that willall the strength and charm of that beautiful word HOME

TermsOur purchase plan makes the salaried man a land proprietor the owner of his home In this

city of high rentals every man knows the difficulty of renting a desirable house of nine rooms under4000 or 5000 Our proposition is to sell you a home at a rental value on monthly payments of4850 including all interest while an average of 3245 goes toward paying for your home Here

is a chance to buy a home at no greater cost than paying of rentTo illustrate Suppose your grocer should say I will give you 4850 worth of groceries

each month but will arrange it so an average of of 3245 of it will come back to you as moneysaved You would accept this proposition promptly because it gives you a chance to save moneyOur proposition amounts to the same thing

The wisest way to save money is to spend it with a view to making the expenditure profitable

The first thief slyly drops a pocketbood stuffed with what appears to bebills Tho man who drops tlje pocketbook unobserved by the victim stoopsand picks it up and begins to look atits contents In the meantime he isopposite the victim who in nine casesout of ten stops to look at the fellowssupposed find In the meantime the con-

federate of the thief comes up and sayshe saw thj first man pick up the pocketbook He appeals to the victim to knowif he too did not sea the first man findthe money The victim says he did andtnen the second man says the first manmust divide up or he will report the mat-ter to the police

At this point the thieves agree to turntho pocketbook and its contents over totho victim for a sum small in comparison-to what tho pocketbook appears to con-

tainIf the victim sees a chance to make a

good thing out of what he thinks to beeasy marks he passes over the money

and the thieves disappear When the vieUm looks in the pocketbook he finds itstuffed with paper imitation money orold Confederate money
