Some of his remarks in court threw the attendants into fits of laughter and showed him to be in a bad condition. On one o n when Judge Simpson casually put his hand to his face, Av- erill sald sharply: “Judge, take your hanu away from your face so that I can look at your mind and see what You are thinking about.” The arrest was brought about In a peculiar manner. Averill was standing on Chapel street with a friend, a man named Mr. Buzzard, and in the course of the conversation removed a stickpin from the necktie of his friend. The latter thought Averill was joking and laughed, but when he started to walk away he was surprised that the man falled to return the pin. He asked for it. “Why, I haven't got your pin,” said Axerill, and he continued, in spite of Mr. Buzzard's protestations. to deny that he had the article. Then he | changed his attitude and admitted that | he had the pin but would not give it up. When Mr. Buzzard finally hailed Of- flcer Stanford, however, Averill went off ol a new tack, and again denied having the pin. He was searched and it being found on his person he was taken to headquarters. There, after being locked up, he told several staries each conflieting with the other. Short- 1y afterward he was examined and be- ing adjudged insane was found not guilty of theft from person and com- mitied to the insane asylum. DEMOCRATS GATHERED.
