No great event in the Unl- yersity since then has taken place with- ut her, and the faculty and students have come to regard her with peculiar affection, Prof. Preston has the chair of arch ology and the history of arts at Wells College. That institution !s Mrs. Cleves! land's alma mater, She went there on the advice of Grover Cleeviand when he was her guardian. For some time past she has been a trustee.

LOW MENTALITY SAVES. “Red Phil” Trembles in Fear and Clings to Guard on Leaving Court. The trial of “Red” Ph Davidson, who shot and killed “Big Jack" Zelig, Now York's most dreaded gunman, came |to an abrupt termination In Justice | Goff's Court to-day when Davideon en- tered a plea of guilty of murder in the second degree, which was accepted. Justice Goff will pronounce sentence on next Wednesday. Davidson, trembling with fear and clinging to the arm of his counsel, faced Justice Goff and entered a pl lof not guilty whon the trial began. The selection of a jury was begun at once. As soon as the jury was sworn, | Attorney James W. Osborne, appointed |by the Court to represent Davidson, arose and sald “I have investigated this case closely and I am sure that, although this man is not legally Insano, he 1s of such a low order of mentality as to be utterly unable to appreciate the gravity of his crime. I believe, Your Honor, that he was unable to promeditate this murder, The mention of the name of Zellg, whom he feared go greatly, throws him into a state of hysteria. I therefore urge the District-Attorney and the Court to accept a plea of guilty to murder in the second degree.” DISTRICT-ATTORNEY AGREES TO ACCEPT PLEA. TDistrict-Attorney Whitman, who, with Assistant District-Attorney Moss, had examined the talesmen, replied: “Your, Honor, the People have been unavie to connect this man, in any way, with any other erline or gang war that hag occurred in New York. He had no connection with the murder of Rosenthal or any other man, so far as we are able to show, While he 1a not legally tnsane, I belleve he is of such a low order of mentaiity that the best interests of the People will be subserved by accepting this plea. There 1s no doubt that he had deen severely beaten up by thia man Zellg, and the People will be unnble to disprove his asseriion that he was robbed of $500 saoamannaet, nee cancre ~ % HE HOUSE RK OF CONG TD JL Husband at Her Side When Both Are Charged With Abandoning Child. Loyal ty the woman he took to wife in a difficulty in which he could easily have avoided accusation Henry L. Eber- hart stood in the Court of General Ses- sions to-day and with her entered a plea of not guilty to the charge of abandon- ing @ nameless child, a handsome baby boy @ yea rold. Husband and wife were freed on bonds of $2,000 each to appear later before a jury. Eberhart's brother is one of the wealthiest men in Port Jefferson, La where his country home ts one of the show places. Hberhart, who {s forty- five years old, formerly lived with his brother there, but for the last year has been superintendent of his brother’ apartment house at No. 249 West One Hundred and Eleventh street. | On a visit to Port Jefferson last year, Eberhart met the woman whom he later | married. She is an unusually pretty | woman, twenty Years of age. Three| Weeks before their marriage, on Dec. %, 1911, she went to Christ Hovpftal, Jersey City, where her baby was bor. Later, when Bberhart wooed and won the girl, she confesse! to him two days before their marriage that she had be-| come @ mother, She ‘had given the| child to her aunty Mra. Morence Bick- fori of Port Jefferson, and Mra. Bick- ford in turn had placed it in the Hospi+ al for Deformed and Crippled Chikiren at Garden City. Eberhart heart the story through. Then he clasped his flancee in his arms, “Don't worry, ttle girl," he sald. | “We will be married just as we had | arranged.” Eberhart and his wife occupied an} apartment in the big house which he | managed for his wealthy brother. Thetr | married life was vtry happy. But on} Oct. 21 the Garden City {nstitution notified Mrs. Bickford that it could not care longer for the boy buby, It was not deformed or crippled; instead it | was strong and healthy. Mrs. Bickford took the child to the Eberhart's apartment. For the sake of appearances Mrs, Exerhart was unwill- ing to retain her child, The three talked matters over. Then, according to the police, Eberhart and Mra, Bickford took the baby to the Lenox avenue police station and turned it over to the Neu-; "I tenant In charge of the desk. “This baby was abandoned in tho @reaway {n my apartment house," Eher- hart said. ‘We do not know who left {t there, and we do not care to keep it." Tho boy was turned over to the Gerry Soclety, and agents began a search for the parents. As a result indictments were returned yesterday against Eber- not guilty, Their attorney sald that the would admit, at thelr trial, the true parentage of the by but would de- clare there was no technical abandon- ment. They are willing, he eatd, to pay Mberally to have the baby kept dn any hart and his wife, an dthey were ar- raigned this morning before Judge! Swann.
