Tribute to the
Phonograph
liven John Philip So-:i, iiu .jK'iu i-.n.lmastcr, who has no use for
Phonographs, lias lp n loivM to ri-i-.nizt' the Phonograph as a for
midable competitor. I hi- tuo-stpp kinr sas that people will no
longer go to concerts H thr can h.ivc music in their own homes so
easily and so chcapK .is they can with the Phonograph. This is an
unwilling tribute, but it is nevertheless a tribute. The man who has
a Phonograph has a concert in his own house. Even a king could not
have more. At our store you can hear them any time.

to try him on the charge ot murder

three disinterested men named to con
duct the inquiry will guide tho future
action or tho court mi to ordering
Thaw to an asylum or directing that

Justice Fitzgerald announced the
nnnolntment of the commission pri
ll vntely in his chambers. Evelyn Nes-
bit Thaw was there with tho lawyers,
and it became her task to break tho
news to her husband In tho Tombs.

tho young woman was smiling and

'iKHceislou philosophically and said ho
Jj'( knd no doubt th commission would
tl dccla.ro him a sane man.
I Followlnc are tfce commissioners:
L ...
Moman .1. O'Htien, a lormer justice
of tho appellate division of tho su-
nrenie court: Peter H. Olnoy, former
district attorney of Now York county;
Dr. Leopold Putzt-l, a practicing pnysi
clan and authority on mental disor
ders.
Tho lunacv commission will bo at
tended by District Attorney Jerome.
The lawyers for tho defendant will

direct and compel tho attendance of
probable that Thaw will be asked
first of ajl to submit tQ. a rigid physi
cal examination. Having undergone
several of these since his incarcera
tion, ho l-s somewhat nervous on this
subject, but it was said by his coun
sel that ho would do anything in his
power to aid the commission in its
work, and he hoped for an early opin
ion as to his sanity. Thaw's lawyers
and the defendant himself were down
cast when first made acquainted with
Justice Fitzgerald's decision, but all'
were manifestly pleased when the lat
er aunouueement as to the personnel
of the committee of inquiry was made.
Mr. Del mas in particular declared that
Justice Fitzgerald could hardly have
selected a more generally satisfactory
committee, one whose decision could .
command more respect. District At
torney Jerome seemed pleased with
his efforts.
Tho law under which the commis
sion is appointed provides that the
commissioners must take oaths as
referees and may compel tiie attend
ance of witnesses. The statute then j
proceeds:
"When the commissioners have con-i
eluded -their examination they must
forthwith report tho facts to tho court
with their opinion thereon. If tho
commission ilnds the defendant insane
the trial or judgement must be sus
pended until ho becomes sane and
the court, If It deems his dischnrgo,
dangerous to the public peace or safe
ty, must order thnt ho be, In tho ,
meaut'me, committed by tho sheriff)
to a state lunatic asylum, and upon;
his becoming sane he be redelivered
by the supetlntendent of the asylum
to the sheriff. When received into nn
asylum he must he detained thoro '
until he becomes sane. Then the su
piintndeut must give writteu notice
of the fact to a Ju'dge of tho supreme
court of the district in which the asy
lum Is situated. The Judge must re
quire tlto sheriff, without delay, to
bring the defendant from the asylum
and place him in the proper custody
until he Is brought to trial, judgment
or execution, as tho case may he, or
lie legally discharged."
In announcing his decision to ap
point a commission, Justice Fitzgerald
read a written memorandum. Ho
based his opinion on the conflict of
affidavits from the opposing sides,
saying they were too diametrically at
odds to permit a decision-other than
in favor of an impartial inquiry.
j BOOST IN jjTOCK PRICES
Sharp Recovery Is Feature of tho
Day's Operations In Wall Street.
Now York, March 27. A complete
reveisal of sentiment marked trading
in tho stock market. Although Lon
don prices were lower, the New York
exchange soon after the opening
showed a much stronger tone than for
some time past and quotations wero
advanced sharply on very heavy buy
ing. The bears began to retreat on
rumors that further government as
sistance for the money market was
imminent, and when the formal an
nouncement camo from Washington
that such assistance was to bo given
the shorts began to cover up their out
standing contracts. At the sumo timo
there was a renewal of purchases for
investment. Tho trading was wild
and excited, as tho bears sought to
cover. Accompanying the upward
movement was an industriously circu
lated rumor that an enormous pool
had been formed by the greatest hank
ing houses in Wall street to support
prices. Tills report, which lacked
continuation, made it appear that
$50,000,000 had been subscribed by
bankers to buy stocks with the ob
ject of putting a stop to the recent
precipitate declines. Tho extreme ad
vances reached to over seven points
in most of the Ilarriman and Hill
stocks, to six or over in St. Paul, Ca
nadian Pacific and Smelting and from
three to four points in a large number
of tho most active stocks. Tho ex
treme gains were pot all hold and
tho closing tone of the market was
rather Irregular.

It Need Not by Any Mcan3 Point to
a Short Life.
The heart Is perhaps the organ of the
body least known by members of the
medical profession, and many a man
who has been told he would die lu u
given time has outlived the doctor who
pronounced bis tlo-nn.
Heart disease is coming to Inspire
less and less terror lu tho average
man, ami nine men in ten who are al
lotted ten years to live double that
time to die of an entirely foreign com
plaint. "Some years back," says Dr. Warren
Schoouovcr, Jr., In the Medical Rec
ord, "heart diseases were a cause of
great worry and fright to the laity as
well as to the profession, hut now they
are bundled so successfully by the phy
ttk'lnu that the patients live on under
proper therapeutics until the end of thu
term of their natural life without much
difficulty from the diseased organ. In
the practice of one physician was n
case which was under tho care of hl.s
grand fa tiier from 18U0 to 1S.I, his
uncle from liri to 1H8U and himself
from 1882 to 181M, when tho patient
died at the age of ninety-three, having
been under the care of the first physi
cian for twenty-six years, the second
for twenty-six years and the third for
eleven years, ti total period of sixty
three years." ,
