SLAYER FOND OF DOLLS AND TOYS \ m .wins Discoveries In Torch Slaving Made By DflrrllvH. New York —One of the most amazing discoveries about Henry Colin Campbell, the New Jersey torch murderer. Is the fact that he had a collection of dolls and Teddy Bears at home. This naturally Rives rise to the question: How can a man who treasures these tender playthings of children be cruel enough to kill a woman m cold blood? Of course this psychological pe culiarity of Campbell's is not the only one on record. It has often been noted in lovers of jewels, of rare rugs, paintings, books, and has been particularly noted in connec tion with the cultivated rich men and rulers of India. A rase in point is that of thr Lorb-Leopold affair in Chicago, where two young men cruelly slaughtered a young boy with a pathological motive it was discov ered during their trial that Lick lorb possessed a Teddy Bear, so that, in spite of the fact that h - cunning and cruelty were that of an adult, certain phases of his men tality were that of a child The answer of the puzzle of these complex natures Is that they are over domninant, and find pleasure in playing with these helpless and lifeless playthings Inanimate ob jects cannot, resist them. whereas human being do, and therefore they are subject to cruel punish ment When we find a man such as Campbell, who was married three times, diverting his normal impulse into abnormal or pathological chan nels. apparently loving grown wom en yet playing with dolls, and laiT killing a woman, we realize'we aie in the presence of a flaxation that lias outrun itself. The home life of the torch slay er certainly seems to have been agreeable enough, either because his dominancy was not thwarted or else because it was flattered. He proved his cruelty, whieh is only a blind assertion of dominancy. when he killed the woman who had ceased to be of any use to hint. She was not in his mind either a woman or a doll. She was merely a thing, a tool that, had served its purpose and was now in the way. The woman had submitted to h's dominance, he had lost desire to captivate her. and now she was an obstacle which must be removed. Campbell was the slave of his own emotions, and the method he used of shooting Mrs. Mildred Mowry, whom he had bigamously march d. then burning her. revolting as it may be to the norma! person, was quite in line with the callous cruelty of this type of person. Thousands of auto drivers will re joice to learn that a truck knocked a train off the track the other day. Everything goes along nicely as long as you agree with the other fellow's point of view, but when you differ with him you are wrong! Mr. and Mrs. A L. Sain of Char lotte spent the week-end with Mis, D, M. Mull. Mrs. Will Crowder of Lattimore was shopping in the city yesterday. ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE.

Paris—If there be people who like holding public office better than the French, statistics have not revealed their Identify Of the ten million voters in this country 1,303, ooo were candidates in the recent municipal elections Every village, town and city in France, 37,984 communes all told elected a mayor and a municipal council. About 400,000 men got jobs as municipal councillors, er alderman The minimum number of councillors, no matter how tiny the commune. Is 10. In some places every voter Is an office-holder, and in the hamlet of Rtboux, in the Vnr department, where there are only eight voters, two office-holders had to be borrowed from a nelghboiing ullage. The municipal jobs used to be Rood for four years, but the new incumbents were elected for six.
