Conversations With Thaw.

DR.. Evans, who has been by far the
most important witness for the defense
among the medical experts, detailed a;
great length his conversations with
Thaw in the Tombs. TIE told of how
Thsw declared that his lawyers and
physicians were in 2 conspiracy with
the district attorney TO railroad him
off TO an asylum and TO prevent his
case from coming TO trial. He declared
they wanted to close this matter up.
Thaw told the physician that in his at
fenlpts to bring Stanford White to JUS
tice he mad complained to District AT
torney Jerome, and that the latter told
him to let the matter drop; that there
was nothing to it. He also complained
to Anthony COmstock and to a detect
i've agency.
DR.. Evans was corroborated as to
most of Thaw's statements by DR..
Charles @. Wagner of BinshamtOn.

SIN AND RELIGION.
By Rev. orrin r. Jen

oY rev. WITH J0uhS.
Is there any power that can remove
the bloodstains of sin? Is there any
remedy that can cure the malady OF
sin? Modern skepticism distinctly
says no. Professor Clifford says that
no God can forgive sins committed
against men any more than the Sultan
by pardon can clean the bloody hand
of Pasha. But Christianity joins Is
sue and says yes.
The greatest of the prophets de-
clared: let the wicked forsake his
way and the unrlghteous man his
thoughts and let him return unto the
Lord and he will have mercy upon him,
and to our God. for he will abundantly
pardon Paul, the apostle Of right
eousness. says: I'VE have redemption
through His blood, even the forgive
ness OF our sins"
1t is the purpose Of the gospel to
undo our wrongdoIng, to repair the ir-
reparable past, to open door Of es-
cape from the dreadful harvest OF SOW
ing to the flesh. History is on the side
of this doctrine, Augustine, the profit
gate, was transformed into the father
of modern theology. John Bunyan, the
drunken tinker, was changed into the
prophet whose vision Of Pilgrims
Progress" has regenerated millions Of
lives. John B. Cough, the inebrlate
seeking relief in suicide, was converted
into a preacher of temperance who
shook two continents into new era in
reform.
