His asted Ambition.
By +. G. Weeks.

The club piazza was gay with the
usual late afternoon crowd; automo-
biles of every hue and smart traps
lined the drive; while walters hur-
ried about with tea trays. syphons
ana bowls of ice to the small tables
where pretty women and men in
fiannels were grouped, telling new
Jokes and comparing new scores.
In marked contrast to all this
noise and confusion. the last couple
from the tennis courts strolled leis-
urely in, apparently absorbed in
each others society

girl earnestly, but | hate worse to

private in the 9Th Fusileers in South
Africa, he was shot by the Beers at
Klerksdorp. His comrades, believing
him dead, used his body as cover,
with the result that he received eight
bullets and lost most of his ribs.
After the battle it was found that he
managed to keep him alive, replacing
his ribs by a steel outside jacket

STANFORD WHITE MADE WILL.
Document Gives All to Long Ne
elected Wife.

New York City, July 15.-Stanford
Whites will was filed for probate. 1t
is a simple document, leaving practi-
cally all his property to his widow,
Bessie White, save small bequests to
his brother and to his mother. No
idea of the value of his property is
obtainable from the document.
From a public point of view as
bearing on the sensational Thaw-
White tragedy, the most interesting
and important thing in this will is its
date-April 6, 1906, less than three
months before the murder. Taken
In connection with the facts gradually
coming to light, it furnishes circum-
stantial evidence that White was cog
infant of Thaw's threats of venge-
ance and made the will in anticipa-
ton of sudden death. 1t is not un-
likely that White had known for a
year of the animosity Thaw bore to-
ward him. Soon after the young
Pittsburg man married Evelyn Nesbit
in April, 1905, he began talking
openly of his hatred for her former
protector. 1t has been reported that
on some occasions Thaw ilourished a
revolver and declared he intended
killing his enemy. Possibly reports
of this nature, reached the New
Yorker, but were lightly regarded.
