been shaved especially for the stock

White Regains Girl.
Evelyn Nesbit came back 10 this
country alone in October. 1908. stan
ford White soon learned she was here.
He knew al about the trip with Thaw,
and at once set about TO make her
believe evil tales about the Pittsburg
young man. one Of these was that he
was a morphine hend. He sent other
people 10 her TO tell other discreditable
things. and so worked upon her that
she began 10 believe that she ought to
be protected against Thaw, who was
expected TO follow her back from Eu-
rope soon. Mr.. White took her 20 see
Abe Hummel, who got some Of Thaw's
letters from her and after some talk
with her about her travels with Thaw,
dictated an anidavit which she says
she told him was fu'l Of stun that
wasn't true. She didn't sign IT, but
says she signed a paper later for Mr..
White without knowing what was In
IT, She often signed papers for him,
receipts for money and so on, without
looking al them. But she was quila
sure that all these stories about Harry
were true and when he came back late
| IN the year she used to see him again
land she told him about going to see
Abe Hummel. nhaw said at once that
Mr.. White was up 10 something crook
ed. He evidently believed there was
a scheme 10 prosecute him for abduc-
| tion, and that Mrs. Holman had put
the architect up to It.
About this time. Christmas Eve. 1903
White came 10 tho Madison Square
Theatre. where Evelyn Nesbit was
lplaying IN "The Girl From Dixie" and
asked her TO come 10 a supper party
he was giving at his apartments I'M

and said she wOu' dn't go. When the
show was over Harry ThRw came to
the theater I'm a carriage with two
friends and got Miss Nesbit and they
drove up TO Hector's. A few minutes
I later Mr.. White arrived and when ne
found Miss Nesbit had gone with Thaw

Harry Thaw soon heard Of this
Threat. and after that he always car
ried a revolver whenever he was IN
New York From this time on Evelyn
/ Nesbit and Thaw were much together
and there is no pretense that their
relations were other than those that
existed between the girl and White
in the autumn Of 1901. From this time
on, too. Thaw brooded over the wrons
he believed White had done TO th'
girl he wanted to marry when she
was little more than a child. His let.
