THAWS CRAZY
Newspapers There Devote Much
Space to Recital of His Epi-
sodes in France.

PARIS, Feb. s-The newspapers
of Paris are devoting much space to
the Thaw trial in New York and as
a result number of persons are anx-
ious to testify to Thaw's alleged es-
capades in Paris. which they declare
can only be explained on the ground
he was insane.
A woman from whom Thaw rent
ed an apartment in this city, has
visited Consul General Mason and
recounted numerous episodes of
Thaw's stay. Another woman who
says she is an American has inform
ed the newspapers she figured in the
bath tub incident" to which refer
ence was made. This woman makes
further allegations to maltreatment
at the hands OF Thaw and declares
he gave her $4,000 to compensate
her for the injuries she sustained.

wonderful Strides.

Perhaps, in the Board of Trades
magnificent article published in a
leading commercial and financial
paper of Pittsburg. there is nothing
that shows more clearly the progress
clarksburg has made than that por-
ton devoted to the banning busi-
ness here. These institutions are
proper indices to the great financial
and commercial strides, and reveal
the unprecedented industrial prog
ress the past ten years. The Board
with Just pride says clarksburg
has unusually good banking facili-
ties. There are seven banks with
resources OF $8,1so,s15.45. In
equipment, management, and SER
vice, these banks compare with the
best Of the larger city institutions.
= At present. there is not a SUFFICIENT
local demand for funds, and large
sums are loaned in other cities.
The banks are liberal with their
customers; they do not give money
away, supply capital for the impe-
cunious, nor encourage reckless
speculation. but any legitimate busi-
ness which is reasonable in its de-
mands, secures speedy accommoda-
ton.
The comparative statement below
win show the remarkable increase in
the business of Clarksburg in the
past ten years. In the year 1896 the
total resources of all the banks in
the city amounted to $Ss5,O5s.42.
while the statement of 1905 shows
one bank with more than double the
total assets of all the banks in 1896,
and another with nearly half as much
again.

The question seems to be whether
Thaw was insane. when he killed
White. Perhaps. If it were shown
he is insane now. he would escape
the present trial and spare his fam
lily great deal of torture, as the
latter GEMS bent on proving that he
has been insane from the beginning
SO before he was born. The
insanity plea. however, win scarcely
cut much figure with the jury, as it
is likely to be one of sympathy rath-
er than otherwise.

CHARLESTON, W. Va, Feb. g.
1t cannot be gainssid that there is
at least one state institution that
stands on Its own legs, and that one
is the penitentiary. In the Kanaw-
ha hotel the directors OF the insti-
tuition held melting, and 1t was de-
cided that because of the report of
financial conditions there, that Coy
ernor Dawson would be told right
away that things were rosy up there,
and that the $4,000 being spent for
improvements at this time would be
taken from the amount of earnings
on hand.
Warden Haddox said that 24s
modern steel cells are being placed,
and that they will all be paid for by
the earnings Of the penitentiary.
mot only are we self-sustaining /"
said the warden, but we lay aside
something every once in while for
permanent improvements. Our
place is one of the finest institutions
in the country now"
Those who attended the meeting
were: c. A. Bloyd, secretary; La
mar C. Powell, Fairmont; Col.

a TabercuIosIs Hospital.

Not many worthier things could
be done for the sake of humanity in
this State than the establishment of
State hospital for the investigation
and treatment OF that great white
plague, consumption. Senator Hicks
of Putnam county, has introduced a
resolution in the upper chamber of
the legislature having for its pur-
pose the investigation OF tubercu-
losis hospitals of other states and
the establishment OF like institu-
ton by the State of West Virginia
and the same has been referred to
the committee on medicine and sani-
tation.
This terrible disease is one Of the
curses of mankind and the most
exhaustive scientific researches have
as yet failed to find positive cure
for it. The progress of scientific
medical research and experiment In
the last several decades has brought
to the knowledge of investigators
many beneficial methods OF preyen-
ton and treatment of some of the
most virulent and malignant dis
eases. The discovery of the fact
that the stegomia fasciata is the
principal cause of the spread OF yell
low fever has enabled physicians
and scientists to cope with that
dreaded disease so that many thou
sands of human lives have been saw
ed. The discovery of the small pox
vaccine and its administration as
preventative of that terrible plague
has been great boon to humanity.
Hydrophobia has been brought I'M
der control. Numerous other death
dealing maladies do not battle the
skill of the physician now as they
did formerly. Consumption will
finally be conquered. The sooner 1t
is the better 1t will be for mankind.
Any movement therefore which
has for Its object the furtheranee of
scientific research into the causes
and treatment of tuberculosis, or
consumption, is a help toward the
quicker discovery of cure, or
methods of prevention. Even
though this great desideratum be
not attained for years, there is like
lihood OF the discovery of new
means of treatment that may prove
wonderfully beneficial.
The State can well afford to spend
some money for this cause. Well
may 1t expend dollars TO save hu-
man lives. If only one tiny bene-
fetal thing may be discovered to
help those unfortunate men, women
and children who are stricken down
in the bloom OF their growth and
sealed with the stamp of death to
suffer days. weeks, months and
years a slow. lingering, torturing.
emanciating afliction. the money
will be well spent though It takes
thousands. 1t is not necessary for
the State to plunge into the enter
prise with big jump. erect a costly
hospital building and appropriate
hundreds of thousands of dollars for
the movement. But the State can
AFFORD to establish such an institu-
ton and the sooner the better.
Senator Hicks resolution, or
measure similar to it, should be
passed without dissension by both
houses Of the legislature.

Why should Thaw be acquitted?
Certainly, not on the ground that
White was a libertine. unless 1t Is
established that he made advances
to Mrs. Thaw after her marriage.
What happened before the marriage
ought to have no bearing on the
case, and from the standpoint of
justice can not have unless it is used
as having been factor of what
caused Thaw's alleged temporary
insanity.
