Pen Picture Of ThaW.

New York, Feb. 2.-Of all the
personal opinions regarding par
ticipants in it that have been
foisted upon the reading public
since the trial of Harry X. Thaw
for the killing of Stanford White
began, none has been quite so
pronounced as this by Homer
Davenport, famous cartoOnist,
in an evening newspaper:
have never seen a person just
like Harry Thaw.
have seen several people
charged with similar crime,
but none like Thaw. There is a
blankness in his face, coupled
with a bad shaped head, which
forms a dangerous combination.
Harry Thaw's attorney may be
able to show that his motive for
killing White was perfectly
justifiable. / would, however,
just like to see the shape of his
back head under his loose hair.
Harry Thaw is tall and slight
ly stopped. His head, even with
long hair, is curiously shaped.
1t is very high at the peak of
the crown, where there is a
'cowlick" that makes it hard to
brush it down.
His head drops rapidly to the
top of the forehead, where the
hair is plastered to his short,
blunt brow. The forehead shows
lack of use other than to plaster
hair against. It's, the forehead
and face of an idler.
Thaw's eyes, naturally big,
have wild, excited look. The
most expression comes from the
whites on the outer side, and to
Offset that glare there is a blank
hollowdess between the eye and
the nose on the inside.
His nose is meaningless affair,
straight and square-cornered,
with the under edge beveled.
The lips suggest the cigarette
smoker and his chin. looks weak
enough to cry easily.
1t is the cheek bones that are
Harry Thaw's most striking fea-
lures and add a wild, weak ex-
preston to his face. They are
so high and sharp that they sug-
gest those of an Indian. Pecu-
liar in this respect, they are un-
like those of his brother or sis
ters.
/ don't know what Harry
Thaw's mental strength is under
normal conditions. But / am
certain that he appreciates his
present position. When he heard
MIR. Jerome ask the talesman
Have you any conscientious
scruples against the death pen
atty" he looked down with a
slight shudder at his idle hands
on the table before him. He ap-
preciates that the life he has led
on the Great White Way" has
brought him into peril of his life.
Crouching between q typical
chorus girl in purple and stern
Mrs. William Thaw huddles
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, as pathetic
a sight as one ever saw, looking
as she does like a frail little rab-
bit that realizes the flames from
the praire fire have completely
encircled it. She almost wept
when her tall, frail, pale hus-
band nodded at her. AS she
leaned forward with glaring eyes
and lips half open no one could
identify her as the beautiful
artists model or the girl that
could appeal to the trained eye
of Stanford White.
Shrunken from fright, heavily
veiled, she was really pitiful.
She had apparently been crying
all night. Her nose was red and
her eyes and lips inAamed. The
artistic pose had gone. She
drank in every word of inquiry
put to the talesmen, and when
the first one was accepted she
leaned back and looked at him
in wonderment. Then she gased

Superintendent Hendey, of the Verde Chief, on Equator Hill intends to take miners to the Copper Chief for the purpose of cleaning and straight ening up the workings of the mine so that large force can be put to work, as soon as possible, to more thorough fy open up the company's holdings. It is estimated that there is now more than $2,000, 900 worth of ore in sight iu this mine.
 The Verde Grand company is build ing wagon road from its properties to Jerome and is pushing the work of sinking the shaft.
 Two shifts continue to sink the deep shaft at the Arkansas & Arizona. Favorable changes in the formation continue. 4
 Excellent reports continue to come from the Black Hills, Mingus noun tain and Eureka properties.
 At the Eureka Superintendent Gil- more is driving the long tunnel at much more rapid pace than 1t was thought possible the could be done. This tunnel is now being run along what undoubtedly was at one time the bed of a waterway. Some punches of rich peacock copper is now being en- countered at intervals,
Bisbee daily review., 1907-01-17

The Boston News Bureau says: "A canvass of all the leading metal sell ing agencies in New York develops the absolute scarcity of copper for deliv- cry before May 1, and many of the companies are already selling copper for delivery during the fall months.
 One of the leading selling agencies says:
 The consumers of copper are like children. They want to get some thing we can not give them"
 This company was compelled to turn down an order for 3,00O, ,0O0 pounds of copper for delivery over the next three months because 1t did not have the copper.
 Another leading agent says: There is every indication that copper will sell higher, but I think that the con- sumers are getting less anxious about the deliveries"
 The best grades of lake copper for delivery up to the middle of the year are uDobtainable under 20 cents. and electrolytic copper is selling at 241-4 to 24 1-2 cents, according to brand. The most remarkable bid for copper was one of 24 1-2 cents for a number or million pounds for delivery in Sep- tem6er by one of the largest consum- CTS"

BURGLARS ARE BUSY IN
 B|SBEE
Broke Into Mrs, BIewett'S Store On Main Street and Took Several Boxes of Ladies'
 Fancy Underwear,

Forcing their way through the rear door, burglars Tuesday night robbed the dry goods store owned by Mrs Blewett, on Main streeet. They broke the glass in the rear door, crawled in and unfastened it from the inside. Se eral boxes of ladies underwear wE all they got, valued at about s30
 When Mrs. Blewett entered her store yesterday morning she noticed broken glass on the floor, and inyesti. gation showed robbers had entered it. She notified Constables Twomey and Wilmoth, and Deputy Sheriff White Although they are working to find the burglars, no clue has yet been un. earthed. There were no tracks at the rear of the building, they being obliterated by the rain.
 The only hope entertained by the officers that they will eventually land the burglars is that they will make an attempt to dispose of the goods. All the stores have oeeh notified and are to report to the officers any one who attempts to sell the goods.
 It is believed the parties who robbed the Rowland shoe store last week are the parties who burglarized the Blewet store. The entrance was made in practically the same manner, and the work in other respects showed simi larity.

MEN MAY HOT
 AGREE
BiSbee May Not Be Able to Get Use of New Line From Ben son to Tucson Is the Outlook at Present.

The work of building the extension of the Consolidated Telephone com pany's line from Tucson to Benson of the past few weeks, and 1t will now be about February before the line is completed into Benson.
 The Tombstone Telephone company owns the line from Tombston to Ben. son, and from Tombstone to Bisbee. It has force of men at work changing it's lines into Benson, on account of the change of the central office from the old Deyine place to the new office on the corner opposite the Virginia ho- lt2. The Tombstone company intends to make considerable, ci1tnse in it's line during the spring, reb//ding the line from Benson to Tombstone and from Tombstone to Bisbee.
 There is at present some doubt as to whether Bisbee will get the use of the lines of the Consolidated com pany from Benson to Tucson and oth- CT parts of the territory, owing to decided hitch in the tariff arrange ments between the Bisbee Improve ment company and the Consolidated Telephone company under c. w. Hinchcliff. Fixing up the schedule has been a matter of discussion be- tween Manager Cowen of the Bisbee company and Manager Hinchcliff. for a number of months, but no definite arrangements have yet been arrived at, and it is hinted there is very great diserence between the two com panies.
 Tke Tombstone company has al ready come to satisfactory terms with the Consolidated people. and will be ready to use the lines as soon as the are completed to Be son. The focal service will be extended shortly to the northern part of the county. Do Dave Adams, who owns the running from Benson to the Johnson camp, expects soon to extend the to Wilcox and Bowie, and will star the work as soon as he can secure the necessary poles.

 LEAD FOR SPEAKER

the slightest provocation. Instead of being leaders Of Ihe Maricopa demo cracy they are the humblest of fol- lowers, pandering to public sentiment in politics, regardless of their own convictions, in order to hoist them selves into the political hmelight. Bell by himself should be placed in the class of a radical-conseryatiVe, but with the ultra radical sentiment be- hind him, it is likely that he would yield his own convictions in order to retain his favor with his radical con- stituents. The word corporation" to a radical Maricopa democrat, either mining or railroad-is like shaking a red flag in the face of bull. This radical wing of the democratic party in Maricopa county is counting the Twenty-Fourth Legislature as the day of reconing for all corporations in Ari. zona, and they want Bell to sit on the judgment bench to do the matter justice
 Because Neil Bailey is trainmaster for the Cananea railway, he is referred to by this radical element, as the tool of the corporations" In brief the wing of the democratic party in Mari
 
 didacy of Bell, are imbued with the idea that they are the chosen people and the regulation of affairs in Arizona should be left in their hands. They assume that of all the democrats in Arizona they are the most competent to write the party platforms.
 Bell favors a bullion tax law, but just what kind of bullion tax law ] is not known.
 But it is against the railroads that Bells principal efforts will be direct. ed. He wants more taxation from the railroads and mines; cheaper fares and freight rates, and a general over hauling of the system of taxation in this territory. On these propositions. in general, the Maricopa county repre- sentative will have the support of the democratic membership to a certain point. The democrats want Q revision of the revenue laws of the territory, but they are afraid that Bell is biased and nreiudiceds in the case and that If allowed to preside in the speakers chair, in order to accomplish some good, would go to radical extremes that would tend to stagnation in the industrial growth of the territory. Sa much for Bell He is honest. He is sincere, to a certain extent. but poll tician who believes in following the crowd.
 BAILEY OF cocHISE.
 ODDosed to Bell. O. s1aricopa is Bailey of Cochise. Bailey is making the race for the sDeakership on his record in the legislature two years ago He defies his political enemies to poin: their finger at a single official act in the last session to show that he did not stand up straight for every law introduced that was for the benefit oi all the people.

COL. GREENE BUILDS
 BIG WINTER MANSION
Has Bought Tract of Land in California, Paying S30i000
 and Will Build,

The following special from Red lands, Cal. appeared in the Los An Ieles Examiner:
 Redlands is to have another man sion on The Heights, to be the winter home of W. c. Greene, the million aire copper king of Cananea. Agents for Mir Greene today closed a deal for A tract of land just fraction un- der twenty-one acres, paying S3o,OOu for ii. and it is considered bargain. 1t is a beautiful knoll. adjoins Smiley Heights on the west and the A. C. Rursge place on the east The land now has orange trees, but most of these will be removed and the ground plated and graded, to suit the tastes of MT. Greene and the landscape gar dner.
 It Is said that Mir. Greene expects to erect on the knoll one of the most costly winter homes In southern Cal !fornia and that spring will see the work begun. The grounds will have a driveway from Crescent avenue to the residence, through the Serpentine Drive, now the edge of Smiley Heights, which is also the line oi The Greene tract. The residence will overlook the entire valley. Plenty of water goes with the land, the sale being made by the Redlands Orange Grove and Water company.
 MT. Greene has long had in mind a winter home in southern California, according to reports, but his decision to come to Redlands is said to have followed an interview with A. K. Smil ey at Lake Mohonk last fall. It is said that he expects to spend his win ters at the home, and that his family may occupy 1t more of the time.

that Cochise county. as the banner
 democratic county of the territory, is
 entitled to the honor. Bailey is not as
 radical as Bell. That he is a conser-
 vatiye is far from the mark. He has
 ideas about the bullion tax and rail
 road legislation. They are his own
 ideas and those who know Bailey know
 that no railroad manager or radical demagogue can change him from a
 position which he believes to be right and fair. It is true that Bailey is in the employ of a railroad company. The same thing Is true of ninety out of every hundred democrats in Cochise county. They are either in the em- i ploy of railroad or mining company, | but to say that these democrats shall | he forever barred from a voice in the democratic party in Arizona, or be pre- cluded from political honors on that account, is the mouthings of the po- ] litical demagogues and amounts to | nothing else. Bailey at the present | time is worth about forty thousand l dollars in cash as the result of a fa- | vorable sale of mining property, con sequently his railroad job looks like | thirty cents to him at the present time. | There is nothing tricky about Bailey. | He is one thing or the other on every ! proposition, and is able to give his ! reasons in support of his position. He { is a southern democrat and can he de- | pended upon 10 carry out the demo | cratic platform adopted by the last i territorial democratic convention in
 the strictest application
 From the north, tie most probable candidate Is Williams Of Coconino. As | between Bailey and Bell, he belongs
 with Bailey. He is 6 conservative, bright young fellow, who has studied
 law, and in the event he can not be
 elected speaker will be found in the
 Bailey camp as chairman of the com
 mittee on judiciary.
 A forecast of the strength of Bell,
 Bailey and Williams, four days before
 the converting of the legislature would | be like this:
 | For Bell-W. D. Bell, E. C. Bunch !! J. w. Crenshaw, William Wallace, of MaTicopa: J. I. Coleman, PinaI. 1 For Bailey-N. E. Bailey, John Slaughter, owen Murphy. of Cochise; ! J. R. Hampton, of Graham; G. W. Hull and D. A. Burke, of Yavapai; Bo J. i Whitesides, of Santa Cruz.
 i For Williams-C. c. Krook. of Mo have; William Morgan, of Navajo; l.. i s. Williams, Coconino.
 Doubtful-John Mccormack. of Gila and W. w. Pace, of Graham.
 IL requires nine democrats to con- trol the caucus. and 1t is not likely that anybody will have the necessary
 nine or the first ballot. Unless Bel
 is nominated on the first ballot he viii be defeated. Williams and Brook will surely come to Bailey and the demo
 cratic members of Maricopa will come
 10 Bailey on the second ballot. Bailey has the inside track, so far, and unless some fast trading is done at the last minute, he looks like a sure winner
