what circumstances he shot White and
Thaw replied
Wanted White Prosecuted.

lhaw replied
Wanted White Prosecuted.
Providence took charge of it. This
was the act of Providence For my
part would rather have had him suf-
fer the humiliation that a revelation
of his acts in court would have
caused ..@
Appealed to District Attorney.
Thaw then told DR.. Evans that he
had gone to see Anthony Comstock,
District Attorney Jerome and a pri-
vate detective agency in an effort to
bring White into court. He said
Jerome told him that he had better
let the matter drop as there was moth
ing to it, He declared the matter
was brought up, but was never sub
mitted in a proper report
AS to Anthony Comstock he said
that he discovered that Delaney
Nicoll, an attorney, was acting as the
legal adviser for both White and Com
stock. He regarded this as another
link in the conspiracy against him.
Carried Pistol for Thugs.
Thaw said that he carried a pistol
on the advice of Roger Omara, a Pitts
burg detective. after thugs had jostled
him several times and tried to pick
a uarrel with him He said these
thugs were the agents of White, and
that they planned to get him into
quarrel and then beat or kick him
to death
Sudden Change Of Attitude.
The witness next described his third
visit to Thaw. He said that Thaw
refused to have anything to do with
him this time and the visit was there
fore very brief ---.
Another Insanity Expert on Stand.
DR.. Charles G.. Wagner, superintend-
ent of the state hospital for the in
sane at Binghampton, New York,
was then called TO the stand, as when
he was on the stand previously he
was not allowed to relate his conver-
sations with Thaw. He was recalled
TO tell these.
Told Wagner Same Story.
DIR. Wagner told practically the
same story as DR.. Evans and agreed
with DR.. Evans conclusion that
Thaw's idea was that he was acting
as an agent of providence in killing
White.
Wanted to Introduce Will.
At the conclusion of DR., Wagner S
testimony Attorney Delmas said that
he would like to introduce certain
parts of Thaw's will
District Attorney Jerome said that If
any of the will was offered in evidence
that all of ii would have to go in, as
there were certain elements in hand
writing, etc, which would have to
be considered by the jury. This indi-
Gated that Jerome would no longer
oppose the introduction of the will,
At this point recess was taken
until afternoon.
viii Formally Introduced.
District Attorney Jerome this after
provision in ThaW-s VIII, sss;rvrrf.ss ,-sa'-st
the sum of $4,000 for the prosecution
of any persons who might be sus-
pected of having caused his death by
violence.

that very badly; among the measures
desired are the biggest possible ap.

slice possible from the Territorial lr.

Barges Driven A.

setts Coast
WERE DROWNED
Owing to Heavy Breakers
Life Saving Station Could
Render No Assistance.

Highland Light, Mass. Feb. Is
During heavy gale off this point
today four heavily laden barges were
driven upon the rocks and wrecked
their crews being drowned. 1t
is believed that about twelve per
sens perished as only two of the
entire crews of the four vessels man
aged to reach shore.
Barges in Tow of Tug.
The four barges were in tow Of
the tug Valley Forge, but in the heavy
gale broke loose and drifted towards
the shore. The barge Girard, laden
with coal was the first to be dashed
upon the rocks, sinking almost i'm
medlately. The two sailors who es
capped with their lives were aboarc
this vessel.
Driven Ashore by Wind.
Shortly after II o'clock three other
barges were sighted by the lighthouse
keeper driving ashore on Peaked Hill
bar and an hour later they were
thrown on the bar by the heavy break
ers and in few moments went to the
bottom, carrying all on board.
Loss Will be Heavy.
The entire cargoes of the four
barges were lost and it is feared the
losses will be large Owing to the
heavy breakers it was impossible for
the life-saving station to go to the
rescue of the unfortunate crews.

cry, and the bricks will be faced with
concrete, new dormer windows will be
set and a large porch will be extended
front and sides of the whole building
making it one of the handsomest resi-
dences in town. The plans have al
ready been drawn, contracts made,
materials ordered, and work will be
commenced in April.
Mrs. Edward Farrell entertained last
evening the Monday Night Bridge
Club. The club is an organization
composed entirely of ladies, but last
evening they made departure by in
viting the men to join them in their
evening of social pastime. This was
done in novel manner. An even
number of names were gotten together
and lots drawn with the result that a
rather amusing mix-up resulted. I'm
der the agreement each lady was ex-
pected to have the man she drew as her
escort. The incident afforded a jolly
evening. The party made up four
tables of "Bridge" after which refresh
ments were bountifully served.

Bessie Abott Programme.

The management of the Bessie Abott Concert company, which is to be heard here in a grand opera concert in the High school auditorium, believes it is justified in enthuslng over the pro- gramme, which it's sars will present.
 The star" Miss Bessie Abott, Is one of the distinguished members of the Conried Metropolitan Opera company. and will give as her chief contribution to the programme the Mad Scene from "Lucia," a number glorilied by the finest efforts of the worlds Melbas. Pattis and Sembrchs This is the famous scene wherein Lucy. bride of Lammermoor, be- reft of reason over her own msdeeds. gives expression to her deepest grief. Part and parcel of this world-adored scene" is the flute oblgato, which. in this case, will be in the competent hands of Louis P. Frtzi. of the Philharmonic society, New York.
 Miss Abott's second number will be the last great work "The Magic Flute" opera replete with gracious and highly characteristic melody This aria was, in first instance, written for the dis tinguished Mme Hofer of the Vienna opera house, and calls into action every ability and quality of an eminent voice.
 For the tenor, Sig. Ed Castellano, there will be two arias in which mediocre tell ors founder but in which the glorious high male voice fairly revels. They are the beautiful aspostrophe to the Heaven (Ciela) and the sea (Mare), uttered by Enzo, the Geonese noble in Ponchiel- lis dramatic dazzle, La Gioconda," also
