"What la the psychology of the case wherein a man will foolishly do some criminal thing in a , minute which will wreck his whole life?" asked an Observer man of a professor of mental science yesterday.

On approach ing close the reporter heard her say: "Son, come on and go back home. . I want you to go." On the first step of the stalra sat a young man of about 20 years. His face was soiled, his eyas blood shot and . his clothes covered with mud and filth ; every evldenoe of the result of protracted debauch. - "No. I won't go. You gwan 'way from here nd don't tell nobody that I'm your eon. Don't own me." For a moment the woman was silent, but when she lifted her head she turned to go and a tear trickled down her cheek.; She had been out to the heart- by her ; wayward boy. She 1 walked ' slowly and solemnly down the street while her son atag gered onto the eidewalk, dodged in the crowd, -going in tne opposite ai rection, from the - one who brought him into the world.
