SUsclal 10 The Washington Herald
Pittsburg, April 5.-Pittsburg smiled to-
night when it became known quietly that
Arthur Nevin, composer, author. sc,
would tomorrow morning. in New York,
marry Mrs. Maize Lynham Dean. lately
divorced from her husband, Or. Davis \.
Dean, of Pittsburg-
Nevin was one of the men composing
the "twenty-eight distinguished sons of
Pittsburg," as held up by the chamber of
commerce at its annual banquet last
night, a proceeding which caused much
amusement.
Mrs. Dean, whose divorce was granted
quietly June 80 last, has since that time
been living in Washington, her former
home.
There was such a mass of sensational
testimony given in the divorce trial that
it was thought best to have the matter
suppressed entirely. which was done in
some way for the time in court. Within
the past seventy-two hours Attorney
Thomas Marshall who handled the case
for Mrs. Dean. went into the county
courts and received permission to take
all papers bearing on Mrs Deans divorce
from the courthouse II would not do
10 have this matter made public now,
those in on the marriage idea figured.
Attorney Marshall tonight declared.
and most emphaticaliy. that he has the
papers in his safe. and that ne intends
to keep them there. Mrs. Dean applied
for the divorce and obtained it on the
grounds of desertion and n0nsupport.
The courts have been impOrtuned by
friends of both sides. and the papers have
been secreted until after the wedding of
the famous Pittsburg society woman 70
Neyin, one of Pittsburg's distinguished
sons.

Mobile. Ala. April 5,-The true story of
the collapse of President Bonnla's cause

trates 20 a fine point the opera bouhe
character of the revolutions and wars
which so frequently disturb those little
republics. According to the story which

has the highest authority for his state
ments. the armies of the allies. Honduras
and Salvador. began fighting each other
while the common enemy was pressing
around them, and the result was soon ap-

Tt appears that the allied armies We're
ntrenched at Choletua, holding quite an
extended lire, with Bonilla and the Hon
durans holding the right and the Saliva
dorians the left. There We're some Hon-
duran revolutionists on the Nicaraguan
border, not far away, who were threaten

Finally, when an effort to bring about
an understanding was made. both sides
accused the other of treachery, and the
Salvadorian general withdrew his army
and moved toward his own country. Then
President Bonilla realized his reduced
force. and decentralization set in.
The Honduran revolutionists and the
Nfcaraguans took possession Of Choletua
without much opposition and BOnilla
made mis- way to Amapala with a few
hundred loyal followers.

This was an appeal from an order OF the

BIG SPOT IS
ON THE SUN
Prof. BraShear Says II May
Cause Electrical Disturb
anCe Tonight
1T IS ll6 600 MILES LONG

PITTSBURG, Feb. 14-Prof John A.
Bashear. OF the Allegheny Observa-
tory announces the discovery OF one
OF the greatest sunspots ever called TO
the attention OF astronomers. He says
as the result electrical disturbances
viii be experienced throughout the
country tonight. These disturbances,
ne further declares. may take the form
OF a display Of the aurora boreal's or
telegraph and telephone communicas-
tion may be seriously affected. The
present spot is so large that II can be
seen through smoked glass. and. the
scientist adds, is one Of the most ac-
tive os solar spots
In his statement Of the discovery
Professor Brashear says:
"A very large and beautiful sunspot,
or solar disturbance, IS now crossing
the face Of thes un and Is approaching
the centan meridian. This IS the
largest spot that has been seen for
several years and its approximate
length is 10000 miles and 10000 miles
Wide, covering AN area of about $780,.
600 square miles. There IS consider
able activity in the. spot, and there
may be some electrical disturbance oc-
cur on the earth, but this is rather
difficult to predict on account of the
position Of the disturbance in relation
TO the earth.
Besides the great group OF spots.
there are three other groups 10 the
wset OF u. and fourth is Just leav-
ing thes un. ON the eastern side. This
greatly spot can be readily seen by the
naked eye with piece Of smoked
glass. Indeed, my attention to IL was
called by gentleman who saw It
through the morning fog.
"We have been observing the spot
with great interest all day. measuring
IL and estimating it's size. 1t is a
great spot, stretching an eighth OF the
way across the sun.
1T comes at n time when II is not
usual 10 expect sunspots and is Of
greater interest for that reason. Why
IL tpears now is not explained"

DECLARES THAW
IS A PARANOIAC
CcontInued Fr0m FIrst PaEe.l

ali the foremen OF the various oompos-
ing rooms OF the daily papers were
Hebrews who were maiiciously trying
10 thvart his great discovery. Under
the exaitaticn of this idea he pur-
chased a revolver and started out 20
KIN the offending foremen. His ac-
tions aroused suspicious and he was
arrested in time TO prevent a tragedy.
Another case OF paranoia was that
OF an empioye OF the New York post
ofnce who imagined that his fellow
ernpioyes were prosecuting him. He
bought a revolver. but decided TO FIRST
complain 90 the head Of his depart
mcnt. A detective was put on TO stop
the persecution. but instead was able
Z oprevent a maniac from committing
murder.
Arguments Of the Defense.
on the hypothesis that Thaw Is a
paramoiac the experts and his counsel
win build up the following line OF
argument:
1. Thaw WITS a morbid and sensitive
child He had 81. Vitus dance and
WAS eccentric in his behavior az an
early age. His ancestry was such as
90 give him predisposition toward in
sanity.
? His youth showed growing NOR
bidness and eccentricity which was
aggravated by excessive cigarette
smoking and dissipation.
s. After he fell in love with Evelyn
her story OF what she had suffered
from white further accentuated his
habit 81 morbid brooding.
e. After his marriage his paranoia
fully developed. He thought thar
White was constantly trying TO get
Eveivn away from him although Eve-
iyn's own testimony was that she saw
White only once since her marriage
and on only one occasion did he seek
70 follow her or 10 speak 10 her Thaw
also began TO imagine that White had
ruined all the women he knew and
wrote an extraordinary will leaving
money 70 the. supposed victims. He
bought a revolver 20 protect himself
against Whites supposed prosecutions
hsred detectives and oppeaied 20 An-
thony Comstock.
g. Thaw also began 10 imagine that
white intended to KIN Evelyn (of
which there IS no evidence whatever).
THIS Is shown from the fact that the
frst thing he said to his wife after
shooting was yes. but 1 have prob
ably saved your life"
G. Finally. after being possessed with
the delusion that he and his wife were
the victims OF a relentless persecution
Thaw In a moment OF exaltation con-
celved that II was right and duty to
KIN White and while in the grip Of
this further deiusion carried out the
act
The tbove Is the broad line Of the
insanity defense started by hself,
while he will make this as complete
os possible, Delmas will not let the
jury forget the real crimes that White
committed against Evelyn Nesbit II
N'il be claimed that the actual killinR
was done IN brain storm" OF adj
vancsd paranoia Ia revenge for other
imaginary crimes and unreal perse-
cutions.
II is out OF this warp and woof Of
crime and madness that Delmas hopes
