THAW ACQUITTED

In the second triaI. just cor
cluded, Thaw was acquitted on the
charge of of numbering that liber-
tine, White, and is now in an asY-
lum. However he will soon be re-
leased, on the grounds that he has
recovered from his in'sn ty and he
and the much wronged Evyline
eau enjoy another honeymoon
among the Alps.
We, somehow, always felt a sym
pathy for Thaw aud are glad to see
him released. He removed from
the world a dangerous beast that
seemed to live TO prey on innocent
girls. 1t seems the law would not
act in the case and Thaw became
the aveng., of outraged inno-
cencs.
Thaw is not an angel by any
means. yet he has many redeeming
qualities that his victim did not
possess. He has had stubborn
fight to save his life and has suffered
intense humiliation and grief. 1t is
to be hoped that these trials will
make of him a better man and a
more useful member of society.
To the heroic efforts Of his old
mother are due his acquittal. 1t is
estimated that she spent about $3.50.

IN A
MOMENT

Years ago, says writer, an Eng
l;sh peer called upon the famous
Josiah Wedgwood, who was an
earnest, religious man, and desired
to see his great pottery factories.
With one of his employees, a lad of
about fifteen years of age, Mr..
Wedgwood accorp MED the noble.
man through the works.
The visitor was man of some
what reckless life, and rather vain
of his religious unbelief. Possess.
ing great natural wit. he was quite
entertaining in conversation, and
after awhile forgot himself in ex-
preston of "polite" profanity and
in occasional jests with sacred
names and snbj.crs. This serious
ly disturbed Mr.. Wedgwood.
The boy at first was shocked by
the nobleman's ..irreverence, but
soon became fascinated by his flow
of skeptical drollery, and Laughed
heartily at the witty points made.
When the round of the factories
had been made, the boy was dis
missed, and Mr.. Wedgewood selec

had just seen it at the vats ano

OLD JOE

After many years of struggle, his
one great enemy, alcohol, got him.
Josiah Brown was carpenter living
on S. Malcom, about 56 years old.
He was known by many and uni
yersally called Joe. He was good
natured and honest. His great
weakness was drink. For several
wears he has been confined drunk
ark. Many tines have we seen him
reeling along towards home OF an
evening scarcely able to keep the
sidewalk. We pittied him and de-
plored his weakness and in our
heart condemned the man who let
him have the hellish stuff that caused
his downfall.
For a time Joe had the better OF
his enemy. "He could drink it or
let it alone", as many another says
TODAY. But King alcohol is persis'
tent and it kept after poor Joe TIL
II had mastered him completely
lust as it has mastered many an
other moderate drinker and just as
II will continue to master them 50
long as rnsa who care more tor a
dollar tha. they do for their soul
are allowed to deal out the deadly
stuff to poor weak mortals.
Monday Joe went over east OF
the river. presumably to Mr.. Os-
horns. He rode back in the even
ing to the Chapple corner with Mr..
Osborn and started to town a foot
from the corner. For some cause
when partly down the hill this side
of Chapples he crossed to the s'de
of the road and fell in the shallow
ditch there. The ditch was full OF
leaves and in falling his head turned
under his body and he laid there and
suffocatsd in the leaves. Farmers
returning from town found his lite
less body. A phone message was
sent in to the officers from the
power house and they went out and
brought in the body which was sent
to Severy for burial, beside his two
sons who are buried there.

CRUISER YANKEE SUNK.
elimination of Unfortunate Cruise to
Attend Submarine Flotilla
Maneuvers.

New Bedford, Mass.-The United
States cruiser Yankee, which was float.
ed Friday after having been aground
on a reef at the western entrance to
Buzzards bay for several weeks, sank
early Saturday off Penikes island.
1t was intended, as soon as the cruiser
had been freed from the reef, to tow
her to New York, but a nasty north
west gale made such a plan impracti-
cable.
The sinking of the Yankee was the
elimination Of an unfortunate cruise
from Newport to the neighborhood of
Martha g Vineyard to attend the sub
marine fotilla in their fall maneuvers.
While on her way from Cuttyhunk to
Newport for a supply of coal the Yam
kee struck on Spindle rock, at the west
ern entrance to Buzzards bay, during a
thick fog on September 23.
Captain James 7. McAllister, who was
in charge of the marine engine of the
wrecking work, in view of the danger.
warned the members of the wrecking
crew to leave the ship. All but six Of
the 90 men left the Yankee. The
cruiser reeled suddenly and sank in AZ
of water. All escaped.
