LATE AS SEPTEMBER
The Architect Never Accom-
panied Women in Auto.

New York, July 6.-Mrs. Harry K.
Thaw's daily visit to her husband in
the Tornbs was very brief today. She
remained scarcely more than 10 minutes
in the prison and after leaving there
went to the offices Of her husbands at
torneys.
That Mrs Thaw and Stanford White
were on friendly terms up to last Sep
tember is the assertion made in sign
ed statement given out today by John
Burns who was employed by White as
chauffeur. Burns says in his statement
that on two occasions, one in February
and again in September, 1905 the cleo
trio cab which he drove was placed at
Mrs. Thaw's disposal by White. The
first Of these occasions was before her
marriage, the second was five months
after. In each instance, according to
the chauffeur she was taken from a
restaurant to her hotel and in neither
case did White accompany her.
Burns says that he was engaged by
White in the latter part of january,
1905. to drive his electric cab between
the hours of p. m. and a. m. and
continued in his employ until the lat
ter part OF September of that year. The
use of the electric machine was dis
continued at that time, he SAYS, be-
cause of the persistent following of
the cab by men riding bicycles, on foot
automobiles.
-'In those nine months" says Burns
taking out the time Mr.. White was
in Europe and Canada my employer
never entered the electric hanson in
the company of q woman other than
Mrs. White, whom he frequently took
to Sherrys for dinner

men on the sidewalk in front Of Rec
tors. Mr.. White escorted her to the
machine and put her In. saying to me:
Take this lady home and then come
right back for me-
several weeks later 1 took Mr..
White to a restaurant in West Twenty
sixth street. Hardly had Mr. White
reached the sidewalk when a hanson
approached from Broadway, pulled up
and Miss Nesbit Jumped to the side
walk and approached Mr.. White, say
ing as she held out her hands, Hello,
Stanny, how have you been ? Mr..
White shook hands. He seemed anx-
ious to get up the stoop. They talked
for a few minutes and he babe her
good night. He then turned into the
restaurant and she got back into her
hanson and was driven on
THE second time Miss Nesbit rode
in Mr. Whites cab was in the latter
part of September after his return
from Europe. I had gone to Rectors
to get him from a dinner. He came
out on the sidewalk with three men be-
sides himself and two women, one of
whom was Miss Nesbit.
Take these women home.
Johnnie he said to me.
Il never once took Mr.. White to his
studio in Madison Square Garden low

never saw a woman enter there.s

Their HAPPY DAY.
Salvation Army Outing for
Children Is Given.
No Discrimination as to Color
or Age.
WENT TO VINEWOOD.
All the Attractions Were Free

Big Dinner Is Served by the
officers.
WENT TO VINEWOOD.

A happier picnic party than that
which is at vinewood park today, one
more keen to enjoy the many attrac-
tons and have the best sort of a time
in every sense of the word, would be
impossible. There have been many
parties at the park this season and
planned, but none of them have been
or will be quite as enjoyable from the
standpoint of those participating, as
the one which is there today. In this
marty are hundred and fifty children
of the city who are the guests of the
local Salvation Army corps.
1t has been called the poor chill
dren's picnic" but it was quite evil

We're not the children Of poverty
stricken parents. AS a matter of fact.
there is no real poverty in Topeka as
is found in other cities These chill
dren, who were on the rOllieking trip
today, are those Of hard working par
ents who are not blessed with an
abundant supply of the worlds goods,
but who are in no sense of the word
living on the bounty of those charit-
ably inclined. They are the children
OF families among whom the members
OF the Salvation Army do their work
Their parents have not the time nor

trips to NinewOod so the Salvation
Army arranged this little excursion for
them.
There was no discrimination by the
members of the Army as to color. size
or age, in the making up of this party
There were tots hardly big enough to
walk alone to strapping boys and good
bg girls running up to u and IA
years in age, and many of them were
colored children. and they had 1ust
as good time as the rest and were
treated just as handsomely.
All of the youngsters were we'll and
comfortably dressed, and exception
ally clean. a number Of them giving
evidence that they had experienced
perhaps unusual scrubbings A good
many Of the boys were barefoofed
probably from choice. and most of tn .

where the cars were taken, two of the
large ones being sufficient to carry. the
party. Every one of the children was
puobhng over with mirth from the
time they gathered at the tent. When
the cars were reached the bows showed
their true spirit by not deigninR to pei
