I'd laborers coming from Japapn are

yreement between President Roose-
welt. Secretary Root Mayor Schmltz
and the san Francisco school board as
the adjustment OF the anti-Japanese
agitation brought about by the segrc-
cation OF Japanpese children in the
san Francisco schools.
The agreement means that the
schools of san Francisco will be con-
Quoted in the same manner as they
were before the boarG Of education

for orgies by Stanford White and other
inhuman scoundrels.
Thaw bequeathed a sum of $500 each
to Rev. DR.. Parkhurst, Anthony Com
stock and the lawyer named in the
codicil to be used in discovering fur
ther alleged misdeeds by White. and
asking for redress for the women.

confinement in the Tombs declaring
that the stress which caused his men,

Table.

New York, Feb. Isl never wanted

creature destroying the mothers and
daughters of America but I wanted
through legal means TO bring him TO
trial. 1 wanted To get him into court
TO bring him to justice. But providence
took charge of it. 1t was an act of
providence"
This is Harry X. Thaw's own story
Of the killing Of White. 1t was told by
him TO DR.. Btitton d. Evans, the
alienist last August in the TOmbs.
Evans today repeated the prisoners
words to the jury. jerome fought hard
last week against the introduction OF
this evidence which the defense be-
lieves is conclusive proof that Thaw did
not know that his act was wrong.
Testifying physicians had declared that
in their opinion Thaw was insane at the
time he made the statements. How
ever rules Of evidence permitted intro
duction Of the prisoners words.
In bulwarking the contention that
Thaw was insane when ne killed White
the defendants counsel succeeded to-
day in placing before the jury the will
executed by Thaw the night OF his
marriage in April, 1905, and a codicil
executed at the same time. Again Je-
rome fought the evidence, but signifi-
cantly withdrew his objections after
Evans had given it as his expert opin-
ion that Thaw was insane at the time
he executed the will.
The fact that the district attorney
seems disposed to let in testimony of
every character provided there is a pre-
liminary opinion from the witness that
the man was Of unsound mind at the
time which the testimony refers TO was
taken today as a further indication
that Jerome may at the psychological

died last week said he felt perfectly
able to go on with the trial and it was
decided that the jurors should not
again be confined until they finally re-
tire to make up their verdict.
Evans who has been by far the most
important witness for the defense
among the medical experts detailed at
great length his conversations with
Thaw at the Tombs. He told how
Thaw declared that his lawyers and
physicianS~were in conspiracy with the
district attorney to railroad" him to
an asylum to prevent the case coming
to trial. He declared that they want
ed to close this matter up" Thaw told
his physician that in his attempts to
bring White to justice he had COM
planned to Jerome. that the latter had
told him to let the matter drop. that
there was nothing to it. He also COM
planned to Anthony Comstock and to a
detective agency. DR.. Evans was cor
roborated as to most of Thaw's cross
ments by DR.. Wagner. Jerome cross
examined Evans briefly on the opinion
that Thaw was of unsound mind at the
time OF executing the viii. Delmas was
on his feet during the cross-eXamina-
tion. He interposed many objections
and was generally sustained.
Jerome in protesting against admit
ting the codicil as evidence referred 10
these scandalous statements" Del
mas objected and the objection was
noted as being due to the district at
tOrney's misconduct. \ WOrdv con-

JAPANESE RESIGNATION.
The People Not Inclined to Find
Fault.

Toxic. Feb. 1.-THE passage of
President Roosevelts passport bill by
the senate Of the United States was
cmi-oficially announced this morning.
The leading newspapers today ex
planned that this section by United
States government is perfectly legiti-
mate and within the treaty stipula-
tiOns. It is also pointed out that the
promise Of success of judicial pro-
cedure in the school question is lessen
ing. The newspaper thus far have
refrained from making any comment
on the latest news from Washington
Il is believed that the immigration
companies will combine to attack the
governments attitude if an agreement
is reached with America on the basis
proposed. It is thought that the gen.
eral public while regretting that the
solution Of the san Francisco school
question is taking this form. will
calmly resign itself to the situation.

RAILROAD LEGISLATION.
The House Again Subjected to an
Oratorical Outburst.

There was another OF Mr.. Bells char
acteristic "brainstorms" in the house.
or rather it was only a fiercer Outburst
Of a more or less continuous brain storm.
The bill for the repeal of the tax ex-
emptiOn laws Of the territory from the
earliest times. Of which Mr.. Bell is the
author was under consideration.
A motion TO indefinitely post
pone was offered and with
little effort could have been put
through. Several members however
known to be opposed to the bill voted
against the motion either on principle
or with the purpose of defeating the
measure in the regular way. 1t they
had known what an inflictiOn Of ora
tory they were voting upon the house
they might have thought better Of it
for when the motion was defeated Mr..
Bell began a speech of the usual sort.
He purpOrted to give a history of the
exemption legislation but the history
was a continuous series of misstate-
ments as to time and circumstance.
These utterances We're not understood
to be willfully untrue but were the pro-
ducts of chronic misinformation.
The proposal to repeal these laws Mr.
Bell said might be reputation but the
speaker said he did not feel himself
bound to stand by the agreements of
earlier legislatures who had performed
unlawful acts. There was on the
part Of Mr.. Bell a general over
sight Of the fact that whether It
was in the power OF the Legislature or
not to pass such laws; whether or not
they were in conflict with the organic
act they became valid when they were
ratified by congress. The speaker quot
ed from supreme court decisions in sim
liar cases which had been carried up
from various states. but in such cases
there had been no subsequent validat-
ing act by congress and there could not
be such act.
Only a phOnOgraph and a biograph
could furnish an adequate description
of the remarks of Mr.. Bell but i'm pass
ing he gave an estimate of himself
which may be recalled. He had been
approached in a vision by Diogenes
who admitted that he had failed
through the centuris in his search of an
honest man. His quest had only prov
ed to him that there were none. But he
did not want all this time spent for
nothing and he would now take the

Of all people who are glad when
the season of thunderstorms is past,
none are more thankful than profes-
sional nurses.
"sIt isn't that we are so afraid OF
lightning ourselves, - said a nurse IN
Roosevelt Hospital, ''but it has a
harmful effect on our patients. Most
sick people have an unreasonlng fear
Of lightning. In cases Of extreme
weakness or nervousness a dozen
flashes of binding lightning reduces
the patient to such state OF pros
tration that it takes extraordinary Ell
forts on the pant Of the nurse to
brine him around. If one sick person
REQUIRES all that extra attention In a
thunderstorm, just imagine the pre-
dicament of the nurse wno has a

MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS. -

''That stenographer out III San
Francisco is wise girl in her day
and time. In her short journey along
life's highway she has learned safe
road to success, and perhaps happi-
ness. The young woman in question
was a witness a few days ago in one
of the Doodle trials. She was conf
dental stenographer ito the defend
ant, and her testimony was expected
to be of great imoprtance to the pro-
secution in establishing the guilt OF
the accused. Naturally the attorneys
for the defense objected to the young
lady testifying, and argued that what
she knew had come to her in conf
Dental capacity and therefore should
be considered sacred. and ought not
to be admitted as evidence. The
prosecuting lawyers argued that to
withhold the testimony would be
conceaIin@ fraud and crime, and thus
defeat the ends Ct justice. The judge
ruled in accordance with the conten-
tion of the prosecution, and directed
the young woman to answer. Sne an
swered, and her answer might serve
as a guiding principle for others. It
was the language Of wisdom. 1t was
a maxim for any seeking way to
business success. or the avoidance OF
much trouble in other walks Of life.
Her answer was this: II simply at
tended to my own business, and never
knew anything else that went on IN
the Office" She is a star stenograph-
er, and a very wise young woman. In
a few words she gave the secret of
how much success and happiness can
be obtained in this world. "Mind
your own business is a safe r1lle
and a splendid motto. "-Macon Tel
egraph.
This was "a wise young woman. The
truth is it is a good motto for others
than stenographers. The disposition
of human nature is too much inclln-
ed to the direction Of attending to
the business of other people. The po-
sition Of stenographer, however, IS
peculiarly one of confidential rela-
tions and whether the position be
filed by man Or a woman he or she
should learn the lesson given by the
young woman above. 81 simply at
tend to my own business, and never
know anything else that went on in
the 'office." A wise young woman.
She will have no trouble in securing
good position. A good motto for
other people as we'll. Mind Your own
business and you will have your
hands full.
