New Jersey fin October, 1902, and early in 1903 I became i'll. The doctors came and said an operation was necessary. They told me was very sick, but did not say what was the matter. MT. Thaw came to see me and was the last person except the doctors whom saw before being placed under the innu- ence of anaesthetics. He had been told it was dangerous for me to talk. So he came In quietly and knelt down by the bed and kissed my hand and looked at me for a moment and went out.
 When I recovered I found he had made arrangements for my mother to take me abroad to recuperate. It was while we were in Paris on this trip that hs proposed to me"

There is m impression that Mir Del mas may strive to have it occupy the entire day in order that the young wo- man may take advantage of the ad- journment over Saturday and Sunday to recover from her fatigue and be prepared for the trying ordeal of the cross examination of District Attorney Jerome.

Even if they could nave seen, the ju. rors would have had no eyes for the prisoner, They, too, had turned their gaze from the witness as the tears came to her voice as we'll as her eyes, and, each man of the twelve seemed intent upon some object on the floor before them. Justice Fitzgerald look cd out through the long grated win dows. The scene and the story mark cd new precedent in the history of criminal proceedings in New York city. Old court attendants gave their ready assent to this.
 Mrs. Thaw was still on the stand, her direct examination uncompleted, when the day was done. Once she was sxeused for m hour while Law yer Frederick Longfellow was sworn to fix the date of certain letters writ ten to him by Harry Thnw subsequent to the revelations Miss Nesbit had made to him in Paris. The girl had identified the writing, but the court held that the date must also become a matter of competent evidence. Mrs. Thaw seemed to appreciate the relief this incident offered, although during the hour and . half recess for lunch con she had recovered from the fatigue of the two hours spent in the witness chair during. the morning session. As she left the stand for the recess she walked unsteadily and, passing back of the jury box. ran the fingers of he. left hand along the wall as blind person might.
 In testifying Mrs Thaw was not al lowed to state the names of certain persons, but by consent of counsel for defense she gave them in whispers to Mir. Jerome "in order" as MT. Delmas said, "that the prosecution may have the fullest possible opportunity to re flute any of her statements if he can.'
 Most of the second session was giv' en over to argument as to the admissi bility of the letters written by Thaw tc MT. Longfellow, but afterward Mrs Thaw continued her story. She told o1 how she came back from Europe g month ahead of Thaw. During that month friends of Stanford White hat told her many stories about the young Pittsburg millionaire, and when he re turned to America she refused to set him except in the presence of a thirt person. When he asked her why sht acted 50 she told him the stories.
 One was that Thaw had put gir into a bathtub and turned scalding wa ter upon her. Another was that he wa addicted to the use of morphine, and , third declared that he had tied girls t bedposts and beaten them.
 He looked very sad" she said, "an, told me they had been making a foo of me. He said he understood why 1 was done. I afterward got so man, conflicting accounts from the person who had told me the stories and heard their regulations were so ba, that finally told Mr. Thaw did no believe the stories. He said.

MRS. EVELYN NESBIT THAW.
 Thus the story ran, with just here and there an interruption by Mir. Del mas to advise the girl to fix the dates of the various happenings and always to tell just what she had told Harry Thaw when he asked her to become his wife. It was through the fact that she had told everything to Harry" that she was permitted under the rules of law to give her story to the jury.
 Thaw sat pale but brave faced beside his counsel when his wife took the stand The two exchanged glances, and the faintest of smiles played about the firmly set lips of the girl. She wore the same blue, long coated dress she has had on each day of the trial. About her neck was a dat turn down collar, such as little boys wear, caught to- gether by a little black tie in front. Her hair. braided and locped we'll down on her mack WAS caught with a big black ribbon bow, the ends of which peeped out in dark relief from behind the cheeks that were pale At first, but mounted crimson when ahe was told to give all the details of her experience with the man who fell [ victim to her husbands pistol.
 In the sympathy impelling story of the girl, the girlish fascination of a voice of softest quality, yet ringing clear in enunciation, the courtroom lost view of the prisoner. But when there came a halt in the girls fight against the tears the people who had gazed increasingly at her lowered theil eyes. as if the relief from their stare might bring her the cornposure she finally won. Then they saw Harry Thaw again.
 His whole frame shaking, he sal with his head buried in his hands, { handkerchief covering the eyes. Wher' the defendant sits he is all but shield ed from the jury. Bent over the tabl' as he sobbed he could not be seen q
 all. Thus Thaw sat for many minutes
 and when he finally lifted his heaS l his eyes were rcd and swollen.

 NEW YORK, Feb. s.-Evelyn Nesbit Thaw. the beautiful young wife of Harry K. Thaw, laid bare in the crim- final branch of the supreme court here the story of her life, the recital of which is expected by the defense to convince the jury that her husband was justified when he shot down Stan ford White, the famous architect and the man who, she declared. first drug ged and then ruined her aud for whose murder young Thaw is. on trial.
 The stiffness of the crowd, which was big, bustling. showing and snarl- ing over some especially coveted seat when court convened. was its own trib- ute to the effect of the girls story. Into the narrative there entered noth- ing of the woman of the world. A girl in face and figure. Mrs. Thaw was still . girl as she withstood an ordeal which might we'll have startled into terror a woman of mature years and harsher experiences than hers. Into the narrative she injected many little touches of young girls hopes and dis appointments. Of her early life she re- lated how her mother had gone from Pittsburg to Philadelphia to secure as sistance and how she and her brother Howard--the brother has been in court many days, but not once has gone near his sister--were placed on train by friends and sent on to their mother. She recalled that the two little travel CTS had trouble with the conductor, who wanted to put their cat out of the car. But, she naively added, they held fast possession of it. just the same.
