Martin, a young Milwaukee capitalist
and auto enthusiast, left Milwaukee at
1880 yesterday in a 4year-old car on
a 1,0oo-mlle run which he expects to
make over Wisconsin and Indiana
roads. Mayor Sherburne NJ. Becker of
this city cranked Martins car for the
start. Under the conditions the en-
CINE must run continuously night and
day for 1000 miles without stopping a
second. It is Martins intention in case
1000 miles are covered without stop
page to continue running the engine
until all existing records are broken.

Unless the church doessomething for

The speaker referred briefly to the

and foreign work being done, speaking
especially of the work the government
is back of in the Panama region. The
association should have. all they ask
for the sake of the boys alone.
Mr.. Kitchener said that the associa-

Christians needed at this time. An

Like the old Ferris wheel of the Co
lumbar exposition days, the great
wheel of Earl's Court, London, will
never revolve again. 1t is being taken
down and the steel in 1t sent to Wales,
where, mixed with pig iron and iron
ore, it will be converted into steel bars
for tin plate making. Biscuit tobacco

the same fate.
The possibility of life without mind,
while not subject to positive proof, is
theory that has gained considerab BILE
strength recently through its advocacy
by DR.. L. Laloy, librarian of the Acad-
envy of Sciences, Paris. He believes
that many of the smaller living organ
isms, as insects, are mere moving ma
chimes, having no more intelligence
than may be ascribed to plants. He re
fers to the well known fact that in
sects are attracted by light, often to
their own destruction, and ascribes it
to the same cause that inclines the
plant to grow toward the light.

der wise direction, social, Bible study
and religious work of spiritual up
lift. 1t was his observation that no
institution is doing the splendid work
for Christian manhood as is the y.
NJ. g. A.
Charles G. Kitchener, of the Young
Peoples Missionary Movement was
the last speaker. He said the story of
the association reads like a great con-
quest of the most difficult tasks of the
Christian Church. 1t is bridging the
chaSam between the church and the
non-church man. 1t does away with
church methods and uses things not
harmful but which must be used. A
few years ago the. pars0n was the
ideal of the community. 1t is not so
now for the young man looks to the
business man. The business man in
life motives, practices and influence
reeds to be more careful than the
pastors of the Churches. 1t is re-
ligious organizations but SO broad
that it touches all sides of the life
of young men. 1t has brought the
support of business men not only in
this country but through the Christ
ian world.
1t is movement of men for men.
The association has studied the
lives of men taking them in classes,
for example the city man as type by
himself. The saloons the political
boss, the modern city is challenge
i to the Christian Church and the men
in it as never before in the life of the
republic.
| There are two reasons why young
men do not hold their positions or Sc
cure advancement-they do not dc
their duty, or else lack intelligent
qualifications. One in eight of the
boys go to school after fourteen years
of age; one in thirty, after eighteen:
| five in thousand graduate from the
high schools. This explains much Of
the present discomfort, and the as
ISOLATION night schools are helping in
the problem.
The slaughter of the young men in
the pressure of modern business life is
something awful and something must
be done. 1t has been found that

directors in college and public schools

After bringing out that her relations
with White continued for some time
Mr. Jerome went deeper Mrs Thaw

to checkmate the appearance Of the
Frenchman. He went where he was
needed, not waiting for orders. His
arrival placed it in the power of the
British to campaign in the South, and
Washington in despair, urges on the
American envoy TO France that next
to loan of money a showing of naval
supremacy was needed.
With the arrival of DeGrasse and
his fleet the curtain rises on the last

In London to prevent Mrs. Nesbit from
raising fuss" and Interfering with
Evelyn continuing in the company of
Thaw. The writer is believed to have
been Thaw
Jerome brought out that the cable
grams were sent after Thaw knew of
the relations which had existed be-
tween Miss Nesbit and the architect.
The springing of sensations did not
all rest with the district attorney. Mr.,
Delmas sent genuine thrill through
the courtroom by declaring that he had
been informed 1t was the purpose of
the district attorney to indict Mrs.
Thaw as an accessory to the shooting
of Stanford White. Mr. Jerome denied
that any such statement had been
made. He did not deny the purpose.
The story told by Evelyn Nesbit
Thaw on the witness stand has won
over her brother Howard
In statement made in court to
press representatives Howard Nesbit
said.
Much has been said and much has
been written about what am going to
do If l am called to the witness stand
in the trial of Harry Thaw, but you
can say for me that if l take the stand
l will not say anything to hurt or in
jure my sister or against her"
In prior examinations of Mrs. Thaw,
Mr. Jerome brought out the fact that
she received a weekly stipend from
Stanford White when she was not en-
gagged with her theatrical work, but In
doing this 1t was also shown that her
mother was on Whites payroll.
White Gave Her $25 Week.
District Attorney Jerome brought out
the fact that in 1902 Stanford White
deposited the sum of 81 $50 with a
New York trust company with instruc-
tions that it should be paid to the Mes
bit girl at the rate of $25 Il week.
Mr.. Jerome questioned the witness
about her manner of posing for artists
and brought from her denial that she
ever posed in the nude. Mr. Jerome
was insistent for details on the sub
iect. He did not mince words. Many
photographs of Mrs. Thaw We're intro
duced in evidence.
1t developed during Jerome's exami-
nation of Mrs. Thaw that he was bas-
ing his cross examination upon state
ments furnished to him by Mrs.
Thaw's own mother and brother.
Mrs. Holman's, grievance is, she al
leges that she was made the victim
of Evelyn's caprice and of Harry
Thaw's indignities
Mrs. J. j, Game of Boston, friend
Of Mrs. Thaw, testified that Thaw had
told Mrs. Nesbit he would provide for
her and her son always if she would
consent to her daughters marriage to
him. Mrs. Nesbit promised to do her
best to have Evelyn consent.
More Charges Against White.
In completing her direct testimony
Mrs. Thaw had told of the converse
ton she and her husband had had re-
garding the fate of other young wo-
men at the hands of Stanford White.
One of these girls was known as the
pie girl she was fifteen years of age
.and wore only a gauze dress when
she sprang from big pie at stag
dinner Mrs. Thaw said Stanford
White told her he had helped fax the
pie and that it was zone of the great
est stunts ever seen at dinner"
The witness declared that May Nc
Kenzie had told her that Stanford
White when told she and Harry were
very happy together had remarked:
'sPooh 1t won't last. will get her
hack"
