THAW TO PLEAD INSANITY
TRIAL OF HEIR TO MILLIONS -
COMMENCED.
Manacied to Prison Guard, Man Who
Killed Stanford White is Taken
From Tombs.

New York, N. Y.-Manacled to
a prison guard, Harry X. Thaw, the
spoiled scion OF the Thaw family Of
Pittsburg, was brought from the DAD
gray Tombs Monday to stand trial for
shooting down and killing Stanford
White On the roof OF the Madison
Square Garden last June because of
jealousy Of his artist model wife Eve.
Ign Nesbit Thaw.
Though pallid from his months Of
confinement in the Tombs cell, Thaw's
health seemed much improved by his
incarceration. His arraignment was
purely formal and he will be remanded
back to the Tombs to await the real
beginning of his trial in a few days. A
delay in the Hilgert magic boots"
case caused the postponement of the
Thaw trial Monday.
Report has it that Thaw's defense
will be temporary insanity. II the jury
is satisfied that Thaw was insane from
jealousy when he shot White and that
he Is san now, Thaw will go free.

TAKES ISSUE WITH RUSSELL.
Superintendent Says the New York
Schools Are Best.

New York, N. Y.-Dr. William II.
Maxwell, superintendent Of the city
schools. takes issue with DR.. James +.
Russell, dean of the Teachers College,
who told al audience Thursday even.
ing that New York schools made an.
archists and adventuresses out of the
children.
DIR. Russell is mistaken" said DR..
Maxwell. 1T is not true that the New
York schools have any greater tenden.
cy to those evils than the schools of
any other city. There will always be
differences Of opinion as to what
should be taught n now wide a field
the schools should attempt to cover.
II fancy he was speaking OF Amer.
lean schools in general and, OF course,
every educator has his ideas OF the
deficiencies In the scchool system. As
to trade and industrial schools, New
York Is In a better position than near
ly any other city in the world"

MUST BE SERVED HOT.
Important Point to Remember About
the Meal.

However simple a meal may be,
there should be no halfway work
about food that Is to be served hot.
Fish, like soup, cannot be served too
hot, and roast meat should sizzlc as
the knife makes the first incision.
Nothing is appetizing when luke.
warm. Among meats lamb suffers
most by being carelessly served 1t
is simply spoiled unless served
cracking hot. II the Kitchen range
has no plate-warmer. put a thick pa.
per on the back of the range. or en-
the bottom of the oven, II that Is not
in use, and set the dishes to be used
on the paper. which will prevent their
being cracked by the heat. Vegetable
dishes and sauce tureens can be
filled with hot water while the vcge
tables are being prepared, Above all
things serve gravies rs hot as posi-
BILE, taking them from the fire the
very last thing.

MARSHALL FIELDS WEALTH
INVENTORY REVEALS LARGE %.
cURlTIEs HOLDINGS.
The Executors Conservative Estimate
Gives $76,oo0,0oo a. Total
Value Of Estate.

Chicago, I1l.-Marshall Fields vast
wealth was set forth in detail late
Thursday. when an inventory OF his
estate was filed in probate court. The
par value OF numerous stocks and
bonds were given and huge realty
holdings were enumerated. In the lat.
ter classification there was no attempt
to even estimate values. In spite Of
the fact that the merchant occupied @
first rank as wner Of real estate in
Chicago and was possessed Of large
landed property elsewhere, especially
In New York City, the bulk of his
richces consisted Of securities which
represented investments not only in
Chicago, but also from the eastern to
the western coast Of America and
some In foreign countries.
In the executors extremely conser.
vative estimate OF 81, zoo, 900 as the
total value of the Field estate the per.
sonal property is placed at $50, 1000
600. The par value of the stock and
bonds Is given, but no statement is
made showing the present cash value
OF these securities. The investments
are generally among those classed as
gilt edged" and the securities gener.
ally have a far higher market value
than the par figures would indicate.
In some cases the market value of the
stock is five times as great as the par
value and estimates Of total wealth
place 1t all the way from 500, 000, 900
to $500 00, 900. An examination OF
the securities shows that Mr.. Field
was interested in a multiplicity Of bNs.
ineses-banks. railroads in this and
other countries, telephones, telegraph
companies and bond and mortgage
concerns, In fact, almost anything in
an industrial line, and that he was a
veritable railroad prince.

RELIEF FOR AILINC
SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES THAT
ALL SHOULD KNOW.
Bandage Of Flannel Good IN Sigh.
Cases Of observation-disclosures.
ary Help In Sudden Attacks
Of Toothache.

When food will not stay on the
stomach put one teaspoonful of lime
water in a glass of milk and sip il
slowly.
When a cut WI not heal saturate
a piece of absorbent .otton with coal
oil and bind o..
If there is troi'.n Of any kind with
the eyes, a wa5h Of either cold tea
or new milk is good.
In slight cases Of rheumatism. II
the parts afflicted are wrapped in a
piece of all.wool flannel 1t will gen.
orally give relief.
For pains in the stomach, a flannel
cloth dipped in hot water. into which
q t~caspoonfnl of ~turpentine has beer
added, placed over the stomach will
give almost .nstan. relief.
A cup Of hot water will relieve a
click stomach, and for those who can.
not take 1t plain, try a little lemon
juice, a lump of sugar or a pinch of
ALT.
For sprains or bruises either hot or
L1ld applications are good, but stick
10 one or the other. and after bapdag.
Ing keep the b%andagcs well saturated.
Apples and cider taken in large
quantities will be found more pleasing
and quite as effective as a dose OF
castor oil. Prunes can also be taken
in large quantities, and will have the
same effect.
Hold a bruised finger in a cup of hot
water for a few minutes and It will
prevent further trouble. The water
should be as hot as it is possible to
stand II. Gatherings and r~un-arOunds
can be successfully treated in the
same manner
Certain kinds Of %toothache IA be
relieved by painting the gums with a
solution of One.half Iodine and one-half
glycerin. II there is a cavity in the
tooth, saturate a small piece Of absorb
cnt cotton in oil Of cloves, tincture Of
myrrrh OF laudanum and place in the
cavity.
For a nervous headache, a flannel
cloth dipped in hot water and placed
first On the temples and then OF the
back OF the head at the base Of tho
brain Is sure to give relief.
