rAKK1NG A ROAD AT JACKSON, TENN.

hovacuIlte About May l. lW', after
hiteen years OF wear, repair OF these
streets became necessary. In" old sur
face was first swept clean with Il horse
sweeper 50 as to expose the solid pave
ment beneath. This WAS dour because
tar will not penetrate road surface
which Is covered with aust and loose
material Next the surface was lopS-
ened by means of spikes placed in the
wheels OF a ten ton steam roller, the
street r"Shap"d and n"N material add
ed where needed. The road was then
sprlnklcd, rolled, bonded AMI finished
to form hard, compact, even surface
and allowed to dry thprou-h.Y before
either tar or oil was applied, for mel
ther substance can penetrate moist
road surface. The best results are Oh
tanned when the work is done III hot,
dry weather. and accordingly the tar
was first applied in August 1t may be
well to add that the noVaCulite used in
the construction of the roads is an al
most nonabNorbcnt rock.
The tar used was byproduct from
the manufacture of coke and was prac-
tlcalIy free from moisture. 1t was

NEW YORK, Feb. 11.-Every ef
fort of Harry X. Thawis attorneys is
being bent to-day in effort to have ad.
mitted in evidence the will made by
the young millionaire on the eve OF
his marriage to Evelyn Nesbit in April
nineteen-fve. But along Broadway
throughout the tenderloin and even
along Fifth avenue, a different ques,
tion was paramount. 1t was: as there
going to; be muck raking2' And indi.
cations are tnat there will, and there
is nervousness today. The fight is
being waged over admissability Of
Thaw's will which, II admitted, prom.
ises to be. next to the testimony on
his wife, the strongest link in the
chain of Thaw's defense. What Eve.
lyn's testimony was to the plea OF
justification, the will promises to be
to the plea Of insanity. Tne document
Is jumbled mess bearing every in.
dication OF being the rambling OF

ment Of tile day was the edict from
the bench that with the exception of
six actively engaged newspaper wo-
men, no member of the gentler sex
was to be permitted in the court
room during the remainder of the
Thaw trial. The order caused a buzz
of Indignation, but protests were In
vain and when the court called order,
only the six women. designated were
present.
Thaw appeared at ten.thirty, look
ing fresh and in good spirits. but there
was flash of disappointment as he
noted no member. of his family pres.

Duckworth
Trial Today
CASE OF THE ALLEGED iNsuR.
ANcE sWlNpLER IS READY
AT COURT.

PARKERSBURG. Feb. 1.-THE eel
ebrated case of the State versus s. G.
Duckworth, who was indicted by the
grand jury on two counts, is schedul
ed to come up for trial to-day in Grim.
inal court before Judge Showalter.
Prosecuting Attorney j. F. Laird is III
and confined to his home. however
and the case may be reset. The pros.
ecutor said last night that he would
probably be allowed by his physicians
to leave his home and he will take up
his cases at once.
The absence of the prosecutor win
not necessarily cause a postponement
OF the case. Two other attorneys
Messrs. McDougie and Amber, having
been retained by the State to help
prosecute Duckworth. The defendant
will be represented by Senator Brown
and Attorneys Gregory and Pedigo
The casa promises to be most inter.
esting one and will be stubbornly con.
tested. The attorneys have had plenty
OF time to prepare for the battle and
will go into the case well fortified.
Duckworth is charged with forgery
and embezzlement, the Equitable Life
Assurance Society OF New York, being
the complainant. It is alleged that he
forged the name of Attorney n. b.
Dodge to document which. helped
him to get $4,000 from the insurance
company and that he embezzlei the
company out Of $4,000 by writing poll.
eies for people whom he reported dead
and collected their insurance. One OF
the names used by Duckworth was
that OF his sister.in.law, Nancy
Haught. He wrote policy for s5,-
900 for her and In few months re.
ported her dead, to the company. He
followed the report in a short time
by the papers which are required by
insurance companies before they pay
claims and secured the total amount.
The first case being SO successful
he tried 1t again soon afterward. He
took young man before DIR. w. ].
Davidson and had him examined, Civ
ing his name as Hugh T. Wilson. He
passed the examination and Duckworth
wrote !lim policy for $4,000. It was
not long until the insured disappeared
and Duckworth reported him dead
AS in the first case, he got the neces'
sary signed statements to- prove that
the man had died, and to all of them
was signed the name of Attorney
Dodge. The attorney did not sign the
name and on this is based the forgery
charge.
Duckworth was arrested, but soon
secured bail He will appear in cour,
to-day.

Mrs. William Thaw, the prisoners

the defense. She will testify that
Harry is a victim of hereditary insan.

fered from Insomnia and that subsc.

affected.
Thaw himself will testify that from
the time he first proposed marriage to
Evelyn Nesbit, when she broke down
and sobbed out to him her terrible con.
fession of her relations with Stanford
White, he labored under the delusion
that he must kill the architect in or.
der to save Evelyn's life

ing received from Harry Kendall
iThaw, prior to April, nineteen.six, tn.
will over which the fight is being
made. and that 1t was in his posses
sion up to the time he surrendered 1t
in November, nineteen-six. Delmas
again offered the will in evidence.
Jerome objected and the will was tenn.
porariiy laid aside. Attorney Glea-
son, for Thaw, testified that the en-
velope containing the will came into
his possession. with seal unbroken,
last December. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw
was recalled and Delmas asked Je.
rome to produce the note which Mrs.
Thaw wIote her husband at the Cafe
Martin tie night OF the tragedy. Sew
cral moments elapsed during which
the prisoner and the witness exchang-
ed glances and smiles. Evelyn iden.
titled the note, which read: "The B
was here moment ago, but went out
again." "Be referred to Stanford
White, the witness said.
Baked at every turn by clever tao.
tics and sustained objections of Je.
rome, the defense at twelve-twenty
asked for adjournment SO that Delmas
might marshal his badly shattered
forces. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw was re-
called from the stand, probably not
again to testify until expert testimony
has been introduced. This afternoon
the defense will devote its time to
building up a basis for its insanity
and self-defense pleas.
Thaw's attorneys, during the recess,
held conference, presumably con.
cerning new line of testimony, a
change in programme having been
forced on them by ruling out of much
of their testimony, this morning on
technical objections by the prosecu.
ton. 1t is said Delmas will put his
insanity experts on the stand this af.
ternoon.
Evelyn Didn't Tell All.
Judge Delmas, in discussing Mrs.
Thaw's testimony, made the follow.
ing statements to some friends:
Before we pat Evelyn Nesbit Thaw
on the stand, heard her story but
once. There was no rehearsal, no at
tempt at dramatic play.
"The story as she told it in the
court room is not half as tragic as It
was when she told it to me during
our preparation of the case. II she
had told in court the details she told
me there is not a jury in the wide, wids
world that could convict Harry Thaw.
"oniy once in my life have been
SO touched with emotion as was
when Evelyn Nesbit Thaw first told
me her story. That was at the grave
of my father, when the last clod of
earth was thrown on his coffin.
"As sat there, as lawyer, listen:
ing to the girl narrate the story of
