Wanted Special Train.

The bad condition of the tracks on
the Union Pacific between Omaha and
Grand Island Saturday. causing a
crowded condition on the Burlington,
was all that kept the Union Pacific
from trying for a record run from Lar
annie to Chicago, says the Omaha Bee.
A woman got of the Overland Limited
as it was standing at the station at
Cheyenne Saturday and went into the
station to send a telegram. When she
returned she absent-mindedly got on
the west-bound train, which was stand
ing in the yards, and did not notice
her mistake until too far out to stop
the train. When she reached Laramie
she asked the officials for a special
train to get her to Chicago by Sunday
evening at s o'clock. The matter was
taken up with Omaha. but it was de-
cided the run could not be made be-
cause of the shattered condition of the
service due to the high water. The
woman did not offer a reason for
wanting to get to Chicago, but was
willing to pay the price.

New York, Feb. 20.-A ruling was

Evelyn Thaw as to the truth of her
statements. 1t has been held all along
that under the law it is immaterial

the witness.

The ssexamination of Mrs. Thaw
was continued when the hearing was
resumed this morning. Mr.. Jerome
jumped from one part Of her story to
another in his examination. BY his
questions he indicated that he did not
intend to spare the feelings of the

denied.
Never Posed In the Nude.
She also denied that she had ever
