OPEN VERDICT RETURNED 'AT
THE INQUEST.
A CLERGYMAN'S MIND.
An open verdict was returned at the adjourned inquest at Grindon, North Staffs, on Miss Hannah Austin, aged 37, housekeeper, to the Rev. John Alexander Sinith, Rector of Grindon, both of whom were found shot at the rectory on the evening of August 19th.
· Miss Austin died the following morning at the house of her father at Grindon. The Rector was taken to the North Staffi Royal Infirmary, where he died on the following Monday. A revolver was found by the side of the Rector, and at the infirmary a second revolver of a consider ably heavier calibre was found in his jacket pocket,
It was stated in evidence that a bullet taken from Miss Austin's body at the post-mortem corresponded to the cham bers of the heavier weapon.
Although the tragedy was not dis. covered till 7.30 p.m., when a girl de- livered milk at the rectory, the evidence of William Kent, the rectory gardener, suggested that the shooting occurred at 10.30 am. or at 2.30 p.m., Kent was not sure which.
At one of these times, he said, he heard three cracks inside the Rectory, as though something were being hit with a hammer.

schoolmaster and lay reader, of Grindon, who had known the rector intimately for the last. 24 years. He said, that recently the rector had been depressed and neu- rotic, especially since the death of his wife in February. He had complained greatly of insomnia.
On Monday, August 9th, he was irrit able. On the evening before the tragedy he (Waters) met the rector and told him. he had taken some medicine to the rectory. The rector looked at him with an expression of profound borror. His face was distorted.
Other witnesses said that Miss Austin had been contented at the 'rectory.
When Shooting is Murder. The Coroner said the jury were not concerned with "the state of the rector'e mind. Everybody knew he was' out of] his mind. If the bullets were fired de liberately by the rector that, in law, was a verdict of murder. It was opeie to the jury, however, in the absence of eye- witnesses, to return an open verdict.
On the suggestion of Mr, A. H. Shaw, solicitor of Leek, who appeared for the relatives of the rector, the Coroner pút to the jury the possibility that Miss Austin might have seen the rector about to commit some act of violence and inter fered, and that a struggle took place, resulting in her being shot.

Later on in the stillness of the night," he said, "my wife waa terrified to hear a rattling of dry bones in the cupboard and a steady scraping at the door. She at petrified with fright, fully convinced that the spirit of the dead man had come back to claim the skull. All the time the ghastly sound went on. Luckily I came home earlier than usual, flung open the cupboard, and out walked my pot hedgehog, bristling with indignation! He had been trying to scratch his way out,"
swell the body of sound and to attract to-day's clients. There is no tendency among experts to regret their disappear pace, as Western instruments are univer- Sally recognised to be on a much higher level.
Regarding the out-and-out adoption of European musical forms, there is still a conservative musical party opposed to it, but the Angora Ministry of Education appears to be convinced that the role of Turkish music is finished, and that, like the civilisation which gave it birth and which was itself primitive, it is doomed. In its view the laws of artistic progress are universal, and there is a cultural dis- advantage in Turkey even trying to maintain the outworn and outclassed modes of a period before the days of harmony.
The trouble is that, while these stories are the fruit of what must have been sym- pathetic observation, Mr. Maugham does not allow a drop of sympathy in his writing of them. Brilliant indubitably, they have the hardness of brilliance. Juhn o' London's Weekly.
