Now he keeps his house lighted from attic to cellar all slight long, and puttee hours in smashing costly china and glass. Occasionally he opens the windows, and yells like a lunatic. Officers who entered the house lately found bushels of broken articles. He goes to his office in the daytime quite soberly.
