THRASHED BY PLAYWRIGHT
Editor of New Rochelle, N. Y, Pho
ner Refers to Playwright Thomas
AS "Miss Gussie."

New Rochelle, N. Y, Feb. 10.-In sew
eral of its issues recently since Angus
tus Thomas. the playwright, was elect
ed president of the Democratic club in
New Rochelle, the Pioneer, the official
Republican newspaper of that city, has
referred to him as Miss Gussie Thomas"
Editor Henry Sweet said that he thought
that this was the serio-comio way Of
dealing with the playwright's efforts in
politics. Mr.. Thomas, who claims to
be an expert on the subject of humor.
says that he can see nothing comic
about it. On the contrary, he says that
the implication is a reflection upon him
self and his family, and entirely undig-
nified and uncalled for.
In yesterdays issue the Pioneer al
luded to Mr.. Thomas as Miss Gussie'
again. The playwright was in Philadel-
phia when the Pioneer came out. He
did not arrive in New Rochelle until
today. When the article was called, to
his attention he set out for Editor
Sweets house declaring that he would
give him some instructions on the e. h.
les Of journalism. He reached there lat
er and administered a lesson to Mr..
Sweet with his fist.

Decisions Are Affirmed.

Albany. N. Y, Feb. 1.-THE court of
appeals today affirmed the decisions of
the courts below dismissing complaint
in the celebrated case of Judge James
\. Veazey against the brokerage firm
Of Henry Allen & Co. of New York,
which grew out of the investigation of
what is commonly termed the whisky
and sugar trust by a commercial con-
gress in 1901. Veazey sued to recover
one-half of the profits of the stock
brokerage company, which, he alleged,
amounted to $500 900, in consequence
of a decline in price of the stocks of
corporations concerned by reason of
congressional investigation. Veazey
had. according to evidence, enter
ed into a contract with Allen & Co. to
bring about an investigation for the
purpose of depreciating the stock of the
corporations. The evidence shows that
Veazey and Walton, his s~on-in-law, re-
ceived 1887 as a one-half profit on
certain stocks sold.

WHY ARE WOMAN NAoeERs.
Various Reasons for This Painful and
Unwomanly Habit.

A doctor expressed the opinion that
cine times out of ten the women who
nags is tired. One time out of ten she
is hateful. Times out of mind her
husband is to blame. The cases that
come under the physicians eye are
those of the women who are tired and
who have been tired so long that they
are suffering from some form Of nerv-
u diseases.
They may think they are only tired.
but in fact they are i'll. In such cases
the woman often suffers more from
her nagging than her husband or the
children with whom she finds fault.
She knows she does it. She does not
intend to do it. She suffers in her
own s~elf-respect when she does 1t and
In the depth of her soul longs for m
thing to stop it.
The condition is usually brought on
by broken sleep, improper food, want
of some other exercise than house
keeping and enough of o~ut-of-door air
and practical, objective thinking. IL
is often the most unselfsh and most
affectionate of women who fall into
this state.
They are too much devoted to their
families to give themselves enough or
any healthy exercise and diversion,
enough of maps perhaps or theaters or

SAY GANTRELL IS INSANE
TESTIMONY OF DEFENSE IN THE
GRAVE ROBBERY CASE.
Trial of Dr. Alexander Proceeds at
Indianapolis-Claim Is Made That
Negroes Cannot Be Believed-Can-
trell, 1t Is Said, Is a Moral Mon
ster While Negroes Are D~isreput-
able and Unworthy of Belief.

Indianapolis, Feb. 10.-Today's pro-
ceedings in the trial of DR.. Alexander
for grave robbery were consumed with
the opening statement of Lawyer Span
for the defense, the hearing of charac-
ter witnesses, and expert testimony that
Cantrell is an insane person, all Of
whom have made the subject of insanity
a special study.
The defense in the trial of DR.. ]. c.
Alexander, charged with being impli-
Gated in the grave-robbing cases., out
lined its evidence as soon as court open
ed today. The opening statement was
made by Mr.. Spaan. The defense pro-
posed to show that DR.. Alexander was
of good moral character, while the ne
groes who testified against him were
~disreputable and unworthy of belief.
The defense is that when Cantrell and
Martin went to DR.. Alexander's Office
they went there for the purpose Of Sc
curing employment to clean up the col
lege, as they had done that kind OF
work at Chicago and other places. DR..
Alexander told them that such employ
ment was out of his department, but to
call again and he would give them an
nswer.
In the meantime he consulted with
several members or the faculty and was
told that he might employ Cantrell, and
DR.. Alexander agreed to pay him $50
for the work. On the second trip Can
trell told him that he vas furnishing
dissecting subjects for other colleges
and would like to furnish some for DR..
Alexander. The doctor replied that II
he could get the bodies l~egitimately he
would pay for them.
The defense offered to prove that at
the time this conversation occurred DR..
Alexander was writing to doctors In
different parts of the state asking 70.
material that could be furnished I'M
der the law. The defense also proposed
to show that the money expended by
DR.. Alexander for Cantrell in the way
of fines and with the pawnbrokers was
deducted from the amount that DR..
Alexander agreed to pay Cantrell.

BEFORE THE STRIKE INQUIRY
Counsel for Non-Union Men Scores
the United Mine Workers
of America.

Philadelphia, Feb. 1.-THE United
Mine Workers of America al an organ
iIation was severely scored today by the
counsel before the commission. Inc
non-union men through their attorney,
John T. Lenahan, presented their /
of the controversy and demanded con-
sideration at the hands of the commits
sion, claiming a legal right to earn a
livelihood as they might elect without
consent or dictation of the union. Dur
ing his presentation of the case Lena
han denounced the union as the fomen-
ter of crime and anarchy. The main
feature of his argument was the claim
hat the union had no legal or moral
right to coerce the miners into MEM
bcrship or to arrogate to itself author
ity to fix the wages of the miners.
James p. Torrey, counsel for the
Delaware and Hudson company, claimed
that the question Of recognition of the
union was not an issue before the com
mission, but he devoted considerable
time to the consideration of that de-
mand. He asserted that violence and
intimidation were agencies selected for
the promotion of the purposes of the
mine workers. Regarding the demand
for an eight-hour working day, Torrey
said the evidence showed that for vari-
Gus reasons the breakers did not aver
age more than eight hours a day so that
the physical effects of long hours were
not felt. Major Everett Warren, coun-
sci for the Hillside Coal and Iron COM
pany and Pennsylvania Coal company
answered the demands Of the miners in
detail and declared the Social.stic the
cries OF the union or some of its leaders
to be responsible for unreasonable
CLAIMS.
