point, a liar"
Instead of further hurting her hus-
bands cause, Mrs. Thaw today made
two decided gains. She testified
Thursday she had been given a let
ter of credit by White when she made
the tour of Europe and that she had
given 1t to Thaw. She explained to-
day that Thaw had taken the letter
of credit from her, telling her he
could not touch poisonous" money,
and Thaw would provide them with
funds.
The second point was concerning
the cablegram which Thaw is said to
have sent to White to use his infiu-
ence in keeping Mrs. Nesbit from
"Raising a row" and interfering with
Evelyn continuing in company with
Thaw. Jerome took the question up
again today, but his question elected
the information that his letters did
not concern Mrs. Thaw at all but re-
lated to man, secretary Of the
American embassy in London, whom,
Mrs. Thaw said had "sneaked up to
mammals bedroom and insulted her."
She said the man also insulted her
and Thaw went in search Of him and
failed to find him. The proceedings
today dragged great deal and It was
evident long before he announced it
that Jerome is nearing the end Of
his examination. The proceedings
tomorrow, with Hummel on the
stand, should be more interesting
The defense on the cross examination
will attempt to discredit the witness,
who is under indictment.

Brave Evelyn Thaw to Have Rest
Soon, It Is Believed.
NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-Except for
very brief moment Mrs. Evelyn
Thaw had decidedly the day today
during the continuance Of her cross
examination by District Attorney Je-
rome. When adjournment was taken
the prosecutor announced that had
practically concluded with the wit
ness. Mrs. Thaw IL to be excused to-
morrow morning to permit Abraham
Hummel to identify the Photographic
copy Of the affidavit Evelyn Nesbit
is alleged to have signed and which
charges Thaw with many cruelties
during their 1903 trip to Europe.
The district attorney got the contents
Of the affidavit before the jury this
afternoon by reading certain Of its
statements in the form Of questions
and asked Mrs. Thaw II she told such
things to Hummel. In each instance
she declared she had not. She also
denied ever having signed such af-
fidavits, admitting she had, however,
signed some papers for White In Mad
ison Square Garden tower, the nature
of which she was not aware. Dur
ing the morning session Jerome
played his strongest card OF the day.
Mrs. Thaw having denied positively
she had ever been to see DR.. Carlton
Flint with Jack Barrymore, Jerome
had DR.. Flint called. When con-
fronted with DR.. Flint Mrs. Thaw,
after hesitating moment, stated
positively she had never seen the man
before.
Thaw was intensely interested, and
when the incident was over he turned
to the newspaper men sitting near
him and whispered. "That man

nothing of it.
Personally the action Of the coun-
Gil seems good to me, although I
think that there is distinction
enough in using the word avenue"
in contrast to the word street"
without using west" Some oppo-
sition has been shown to the change
as made, and wca ID like to suggest
that for the convenience of those
who want to know just how many
blocks west Of the tracks to go. that
the streets be named after famous
American in alphabetical order, thus,
the first street west Of the tracks,
Adams; the second, Beecher; the
third Clay, etc. This would provide
for twenty-six streets west of the

our rapidly growing city and If the
plan accepted don't suit, then the
above plan would be the least con-
fusing and most readily applied.

PREVENTION OF TUBERCULOSIS

There is being held at San Anton
10 what is designated as tubercu-
losis exhibition, the object of which
is to teach the people that consump-
ton is preventable and durable
disease. It is also hoped to enlist
the aid of the people generally in an
effort to prevent any further spread
OF the disease Dr. w. ). Carter.

the state university, located at Gal

well worth careful study In the
course of his lecture Dr. Carter

Each year there are 10000 deaths
in the United States from tubercu-

COTTON MILLS IN THE SOUTH.

There has been wonderful pro
gress and development IN all the
Southern states during the past few
years, but In no respect has this
progress and development been
more marked than in the matter Of
cotton manufacturing. In an inter
esting article on Southern develop
ment in a late issue of the New York
Herald, Editor Edmonds Of the Man
ufacturers' Record says.
Though the population of this sec
ton is but one-half as great as that
of the country in 1880, it has s2oo,-
O0o. 600 invested In cotton manu- |
featuring. against s2I9.00o,o0o for |
the entire country in that year. |
There are nearly lo,o0o,ooo spin |
dies in Southern cotton mills, |
against the 1860 900 of the United |
States twenty-six years ago, and !
there are $4,000 more spindles
than the entire country outside of
! the South then boosted.
| The South, moreover, has aeeum-
IuIated experience and capital. While
II offers to the outside investor the
most attractive field in the world
| for investment and the most attrac-
| tive location for the home builder, II
! is at the same time abundantly able,
if il were necessary for 1t to DO so,
to take care of it's own interests and
to develop its own matchless resour-
ces 1t holds the key to the world S
commerce and industry. Its cotton
crop dominates the cotton industry
of the world. second in Importance
only to iron and steel. The annual
value of this royal staple now eX-
ceeds the annual production of all
the gold and silver mines on earth.
If Europe could pay into the South
every dollar of gold annually mined
it would not, by SIS, 100000 pay its
yearly Indebtedness TO the South TOR
