SKETCH OF LEADING LAWYER OF
THAW DEFENSE.
Napoleon of the West Already Has
Great Record in California-Has
NO Desire for Political Office
An Old-School Orator.

New York.-Delphin Michael Del
mas was brought into the limelight Of
metropolitan life for the first time
when he assumed active charge of
the defense of Harry K. Thaw. Every
thing seemed to be against him. He
was called upon to stay the tide of
adverse circumstances that was jeOp-
ardizing the life of the young Pitts
burg millionaire. Mr.. Delmas was a
stranger to many details of the prac-
tice in the New York courts. First he
showed his daring by ruthlessly cast
ing aside the debris of Thaw's case
and arranging a campaign of his own.
Then he won a point and surprised
District Attorney Jerome by intro
ducing testimony tending to show that
Stanford White had threatened to kill
Thaw
Mr.. Delmas is a Napoleon" of the
west in more senses than one. Those
who know him best say he rather
prides himself on his resemblance to
the COrsican cOnqueror. There is a
suggestion of Napoleon in the poise
of his head, his profile and the shape
of his temples His facial resem-
blance to Napoleon is emphasized by
his habit of wearing a pointed lock
Of hair over his forehead, like that
seen in the portraits of the French
emperor. His friends in San Fran
cisco have twitted him on a story that
he was, indeed, a descendant of Ma
poleon. Some Californians even be-
lieVe that, Mr.. Delmas being of French
extraction, there is some kinship be-
tween the two men. When the story

able success of it. Miss Hawkins is
well acquainted with South Dakota,
having taught school in the town of
Sphinx in that state and later been a
principal in the Sioux city public
schools. She became interested in
real estate in a small way, and, meet
ing with success, she later turned her
attention to large deals in Dakota
lands. Her first sale was a farm at
the end of a 20-mile drive in the
heart of South Dakota. A year ago

is mentioned to him, the lawyer as
sumes an air of gentle debrecation.
The most striking of his manner
isms are his flowing gestures and a
habit of looking at a witness or into
the jury box with his head bent for
ward and his eyes cast upward. He
has a habit of holding his eyeglasses
in his hand while gesturing. AS he
throws forward his head and turns
up his eyes he raises his glasses hOri-
zontally and looks across them, form
ing a picture that is distinctive and
striking.
Mr.. Delmas is So years old and prac-
ticed law in California for thirty-odd
years. Most of his practice has been
in civil cases, and some consider him
at his best in that branch of his pro-
fession. The suit which carried his
fame all over the country was the con-
test over the millions of the late
Senator Fair. He represented the
contestant, Mrs. Craven, and met one
OF his infrequent defeats. He also de-
Tended a libel suit against Claus
Spreckels and was recently sought for
the position of general counsel of the
Southern Pacific railway. but de-
clined.
While he never posed as a criminal
lawyer, some of his greatest victories
have been won in such cases. He has
had 16 clients accused Of homicide,
and all have been acquitted.
Mr.. Delmas belongs to the Chester
fieldian type of man. His suave speech,
rounded gestures and measured peri
DDS, all framed in fine English" i'm
pressed those who have seen him at
the ThaW trial. Californians said they
had helped to make him famous on
the Pacific coast
The law seems to be a consuming
passion Of his life. Next to that he is
a shrewd fnancier. His love of re-
tirement has been emphasized IL re-
cent years, since a personal episode In
his life made public in San Francisco.
Much of his leisure was spent at his
country home near San Francisco. He
delights in books, and is an Omnivor-
Gus reader. Political position has no
allurements for him. He is in demand
as a speechmaker at banquets and
other public functions. On these occa-
sions, however, his attitude is distinct
Iy a dignified and cOurtly one.
To his skill in the examination of
witnesses he is said to add the gift of
eloquent argument, in which incisive
analysis of evidence is mingled with
oratory of a sort that appeals to the
emotions. He belongs to the old
school Of orators, as distinguished
from the strenuous, the casual and the
coIIoquiaI speakers in the more mod
ern fashion. Yet, as one of his &C.
ouaintances said last week: when
Delmas wants to be sarcastic his
words are like Vitriol in a cup of
honey"
His fee, according to the estimates
of eastern lawyers who know Mr.. Del
mas abilities, cannot be far short of
100000.

THE TAcTFUL GIRL.
Because of What She Is, She Is Wei
come Everywhere.

The tactful girl Is welcomed every.
where. She is usually successful in
the home, in society and business, be-
sides being an appreciated comforter
in times Of trouble, and one who can
enter heartily into another's happi-
ness.
To be tactful one must be utterly
free from self-consciousness and try
to think only of the requirements OF
others. A ready listener is always
welcome IN all grades Of society. and
the tactful girl will patiently listen TO
the woes and ills Of other people with
out letting them see how uninterest-
ing they are to her, or, in return, re-
peating her own troubles.
What good can it do any one to d.
vuIge a family secret or failing? A
tactfuI girl will find no interest in
this kind of conversation, says New
York Weekly, and will introduce a
more pleasant topic. She can always
keep a quiet tongue in her head when
necessary, and viii hesitate to spread
unkind gossip.
When in company Of the opposite
sex. a girl will show her tactfulness
by the interest which she takes in the
likes and dislikes Of her companion
The person who seems to delight in
repeating mean and unkind gossip is
not likely TO become a favorite with
any one; but a welcome will always
be found for those who know how to
take an interest in others concerns,
and TO keep their own troubles to
themselves, thereby always exercising
tact.
