THAW WORKING
{ ON HIS DEFENSE
SIayerNof White Will Submit His
Views to His Counsel When
Completed.
MAKES MODEL PRISONER
VISITED DAILY BY WIFE AND
MOTHER.

New York. June Notwithstanding the
reports that HARRY K Thaw, now in the
Tombs prison awaiting his second trial
for the killing of Stamford White. has
engaged a new director general for his
counsel. it is learned authoritatively to-
day that he has reached no final decision
with his lawyers as to who will direct his
defense when he is called again to the
bar.
Within the solitude of his cell Thaw
works increasingly on the evidence adj
duced at his trial, preparing a defense
which he will submit to his counsel for
their consideration. The routine of his
prison life does not seem to dampen his
spirits, his jailors said today. His only
companion within the prison is Rafael
F. CascOne. an Italian awaiting his sec
ond trial for staying two of his fellow
cOuntrymen. Thaw associates with none
of the other prisoners except Cacone, and
every day during the exercising hours
this strangely cOntraSted pair walk the
conversation. The Italian has told Thaw
of his thirty-twO months confinement in
the death house. in Sing Sing until the
court of appeals granted hi ma new trial.
Mrs Evelyn Necbit Thaw. wife of Har-
~ K. Thaw, and Mrs. William Thaw his
mother, call at the Tombs every day.
Their coming and going is unnoticed, and
even the denizenS of the district fail to
stare at the ThawS when they alight in
front of the Tombs
Harry Thaw follows strictly the rules
and routine of the TOmbs and the jailors
say he is a model prisoner. He does not
eat the prise nfare.
Thaw shows no physical i'll effects of

ADJUSTMENTS

Thousands upon thousands have min

been unrOlled before them, and many
thousands more will do likewise before
the famous old play shall be laid to rest
1t retains its popularity through the ire
mendous appeal ii makes to the sympathy
of humanity; women especially follow the
unfortunate victim of Jealousy and the
wiles of the tempter from the time she
makes the first misstep till the final
deathbed scene. This was just as true
at the Grand last evening as when the
play was first presented many years ago

in the plans of the company. 1t was ad-
vertised that this would be the last week
of the company at the Grand, and that
THE New Magdalen'' would be given the
latter part of this week. Now the an
nouncement is made that the company is
to remain at the Grand indefinitely and
that East Lynne" will run through the
entire week with the customary matinees.

Stimulation Without Irritation

ORTNo Laxative Fruit Syrup is new
laxative syrup combined with the deli
cious flavor of fruits, and is very pleas
ant to take. 1t will not grippe or sicken.
1t is much more pleasant and effective
than Pills, Tablets and Saline Waters,
as it does not derange the Stomach, or
irritate the Kidneys, Liver or Bowels.
Constipation.
ORNo Laxative Fruit Syrup will posi-
lively cure chronic constipation as it re-
stores the natural action of the intestinal
tract. Ordinary cathartics may give tenn
porary relief but the stomach is upset
and the bowels are irritated without any
permanent benefit having been derived.
