SATURDAY EVENING. FEB. 8, 1867.
DISCREPANCIES in Dates.

Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw msde a
mistake herself either in making the sf-
fidsyit necessary for securing the license
to wed Harry X. Thaw or 10 giving her
testimony at the Thsw trial Thursday:
When Evelyn and her mother, Mrs.
Charles J. Holman, went 10 the marri-
license clerk in Pitisburg, Pa, en-
April 4, 1905, to take out the license
for her marriage both swore that the
prospective bride was born on December
25. 1885. Ia the affidavit sworn to BY
Evelyn she further swore that she was
"of the full age of 10 years.
On the stand Thursday Mrs. Thaw
testified that she was born on December
25. 1884, and repeated the year after q
question put to her by Attorney Del
mas. If the perjury WAS committed in
taking out the marriage license, many
persons in Pittsburg believe that the
marriage is invalidsted, as the license
would certainly be void if secured on a
false statement.
"Don't ask me to say anything about
the Thaw trial; ii is simply killing me. "
This message was carried yesterday
from the darkened room in the Holman
residence. at Brookline. near Pittsbnrg,
where Mr.. Holman is lying in q criti-
cal condition from shock and nervous
prostration. A maid who answered the
door stated that only the nurse and ply
sicisns are permitted to see Mrs. Hol-
man, and that it is feared that she map

received $25 or $35 to give the inmates of

port was untrue. 1T was Alderman Holz-

man. "as 1t was he who had charge of the
outing arrangements for the wards of the
city,
THE chairman is right" said Alderman
Holzner; lit was l who received the

ORDINANCE IS
AIMED AT
POSTERS
That Are Likely to
Bring Evil Results--In-
PRODUCED in Council.

An ordinance was introduced at the
by Alderman Joseph A. Wright that
will meet with the approval of every
father and mother in Newark, and
every clergyman and friend of children.
1t relates to improper bill posters dis
played on boards and fences and saloon
windows, and provides for heavy fines
for persons who send out sue adver-
tisements. The ordinance was has
tened to a third reading, and then AL
derman Wright introduced a resolution.
which was adopted, that a committee.
to be known as 1.-The Committee on
Advertisements" be appointed, and
President John F. Sinnott appointed
Aldermen Wright, John S. Lee and
WILLIAM Lee as the committee.
The ordinance calls for the amend
mont of section 375 of the Revised
City Ordinances of 1902. 1t is provided
first of all that all sorts of advertise
ments shall be covered by the proaibit9ry
clauses. Theatrical, medical and other
kinds of posters are mentioned in the de-
tailed list given.
The first section makes the fine for the
first -Q1enSe OF peISOnS VI Soi poAas
800. and all subsequent offenses are to be
punishable by a fine of $3.50 each.
In outlining the workings of the new
measure, after providing for the appoint
ment of a committee. the ordinance reads;
1t shall be the duty of any licensee under
his section, his agents and servants, upon
notice in writing from the said committee,
to forthwith remove and destroy all. advef-
Using matter posted or displayed by him
and hereby prohibited, from the streets
and public places of the city, and upon
failure to so remove and destroy sucn al
vertising matter within six hours from
the time Of receiving such notice, the per-
son so falling shall be subject to a fine OF
800. and the Common Council may also
revoke the said license either for posting
such prohibited matter or failure to re-
move the same when notified so to do.
President Sinnott said after the ordi-
nance was ordered to a third reading that
it was a good measure. and he regretted
that the Aldermen did not discuss it fully
and express their views on 1t. 1t affected
the moral of the young children of the
community.
There is no doubt, 1t is said, that when
the ordinance comes up for final action at
the next meeting of Common Council the
! Aldermen will express their approval in
emphatic terms. The late Monsignor
George Hobart Doane made several cam
paigns against immoral picture posters,
and several Grand Juries denounced them
In presentments. But the evil was contin-
ued. for the police did not give the work
active support. But the passage of Alder
man Wright's ordinance. With the heavy
fine for violating its provisions. will, no
doubt, be effective.

TO BE RENOMINATED.
That Is the Story About Assemblyman
Hendrickson, of Jersey City.

JERSEY CITY. Sept. Assembly
man Charles E. Hendrickson, who, it
was announced on tthe outing of the
Robert Davis Association, was not to
be given a denomination because of his
vote against the Blohm excise bill and
Sunday baseball, will be on the Demo-
cratic ticket after all. Prominent DEM
ocrats have pointed out to Mr.. Davis
and the other party leaders that 1t
would be bad politics to turn down
Hendrickson. 1t would create a new
issue, they said, and would give the
church people an excuse for supporting
Mayor Pagan. 1t would also, they de-
clared. arouse the supporters of the
Bishops law and Tend to operate against
the Democratic State ticket.
After a conference of the party lead
ers it was decided not to keep Hen
erickson off the ticket. At the meeting
of the Democratic County Committee
last night the decision of the leaders
was made known.

WEST WANTS ROOSEVELT,
SAYS SECRETARY STRAUSS
Back from Trip, Commerce and Labor
Departments Head Tells of
Desires of Voters

CHICAGO, Sept. 7.-Secretary Oscar S.
Strauss. Of the Department of Commerce
and Labor, arrived in Chicago yesterday on
his way to Oyster Bay, where he will re-
port to President Roosevelt of his trip
Throughout Canada, the Hawaiian Islands
and the Pacific Coast States. where he has
been travelling since June %.
The Secretary declared that wherever he
stopped on his tour of the West, he found
prosperity rampant, and he said that the
sentiment in every city he had visited was
Roosevelt for another term in the Presi-
dents chair" The only other name /
heard mentioned for the presidency he
said, was Taft"
IA every section of the country 1
visited" he continued, Il found an en-
thusiastic wish and determined desire for
Roosevelt. When l informed them what
everybody knows the position the Presi-
dent has taken they all seem to hope that
conditions would compel him to accept
the nomination."
When asked whether he thought such
conditions could develop Mr.. Strauss said
'Mr. Roosevelt is not a man to say one
thing and do another"
