THAW DOOMED TO
LIFE IN ASYLUM

NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-Harry X.
Thaw seems doomed to pass the rest
of his life in an asylum for the in
sane The alienists who have ex-
amined and observed him since he
was committed to Matteawan Asy-
lum are convinced that he is a para
noiac, and as paranoia is a progress
sive disease, it would appear that
nothing short of a miracle can inter-
vene to secure his freedom.
In the present state of Thaw's
case, his future is entirely in the
hands of the State Board of Lunacy
and the staff of alienists at Mattea-
wan. A custom provides that when
a man is committed to the State Hos
pital for the Criminal Insane, the
doctors there shall observe him for
sixty days and then make a report
upon his mental condition, if they see
fit. Should such report be forced
by Thaw's attorneys at the expira-
ton of his first sixty days in Mattea-
wan, it will certainly be adverse to
him.
DR.. Ferris, head of the State Board
of Lunacy, on whose Judgment the
chances of liberty for Thaw largely
depend, was one of the alienists en-
gagged by District Attorney Jerome
to testify at the first trial of the
young millionaire for the killing of
Stanford White. At that time DR..
Ferris was of the opinion that Thaw
was dangerous lunatic. 1t can be
stated now that DR.. Ferris still holds
that opinion.

SANTA MONICA

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 26.-Belch-
ing forth a volume of sulphurous
smoke, white and vapory, a volcano
has apparently broken out in that
mysterious region of the Santa Mon
lea mountains lying between the
Southern Pacifics long wharf and the
Malibu ranch o. Henry, a stage
driver, who knows every foot of the
section, came in with the story and
was laughed at, because so many
tales of buried treasure and murder
there have been disproved. Today,
however, Thomas Mowry and two
brothers, named Wilmot, all noun
taineers, decided to investigate.
After hard trip to the mouth of
Las Pulgas canyon, they saw fumes
rolling down the steep gulch and
coming up in thousands of jets from
the loose shale forming the walls and
floor of the canyon With difficulty
they made their way over the sliding
shale to where the smoke was the
densest. Digging through the loose
rock, they found the stone becoming
hotter and hotter, finally. not many
feet down, showing dull red Com the
heat beneath. From a cliff they saw
great fresh depressions, some large
enough to hold city blocks. and all
smoking.

RECEPTION WAS
SOCIAL SUCCESS
LADIES or ST. Marks GUILD
ENTERTAIN FOR THE REV.
LLOYD b. THOMAS.

The reception last night to the
Rev. Lloyd B. Thomas of Battle
Mountain, under the auspices of the
ladies of st. Marks guild, was a
great social success The function
took place at the old Beardsley resi-
dence on South and Cross streets,
and the rooms were crowded all
evening with the elite of Tonopah.
The rooms were toned with artistic
decorations in flowers, which had
been sent for TO California, the chan
deliers and pictrues being twined
with smilax and greens, and vases
filled with jonquils being scattered
about on the tables, on the floor, the
mantels and the piano.
literary and musical program
had been arranged, which went
through without flaw, and very
fine program it was. too. There was
fine singing, and most excellent
musical selections. The program
opened with a vocal trio by Messrs
Downs, Dennis and Reiger, and after
little interval, Mrs. Fred Lombard
sang Waiting" Miss Conlin fol-
lowed with a very clever recitation,
entitled Mice at Play delivered in
the cutest style imaginable. Arthur
| NJ Dorry occon,nar;od b1y IIorn,o,n

violin, which was rapturously ap-
plauded. A tenor solo by Mr.. Dennis
won much applause, and Mrs George
Blakeslee followed with a piano solo
in her usual charming manner, and
| Harry Downs took the cake with
his coon songs. Mesdames Taylor
and Lombard rendered effectively a
very pretty duet, Sing Me to
Sleep" which was one of the hits OF
the evening. Miss Conlin was called
upon again. and recited the Sign of
the Cross which she did very we'll.
Mr.. Reiger sang the armorer's song
from Robin Hood" and was obliged
to respond with an encore. Mrs.
Taylor was heard again in song, this
time a solo, and Arthur Perry dis
coursed again the sweetest music on
the violin. The. entertainment con-
Guided with Annie Laurie" by
Harry Downs, accompanied by Miss

During the program. the guests
were served with refreshments
which, be it said, were not the least
enjoyable of the good things that
were in evidence at the reception.
There was punch very light, cof-
fee, sandwiches, = and lots of goodies.
Mrs. A. H. Smith was the goddess
who presided over the refreshments,
and she was assisted by number of
the ladies of the guild One of the
most indefatigable workers for the
success of the reception was Miss
Grace Oddie, to whose efforts nc
little need of praise for the success
of the entertainment was due. Mrs,
P. F. Beardsley was an able lieuten-
ant, and on the reception committee
with these ladies were Mesdames
Veitch, Gore and Gaden, who saw to
it that everybody was made comfort
able and happy.
