1t Is She Who Will Suffer
BY Bankruptcy Pro-
ceedings.
IMMENSE INCOME SHUT OFF
HER DEMANDS UPON HER Hus-
BAND HAVE REACHED AS HIGH
AS $1,000 PER MoNTH-REcElv.
Err CHARGES ROBBERY.

Pittsburg, Aug. S-That bankrupt
cy proceedings instituted here by
Harry X. Thaw will. among other
things. result in Evelyn Thaw being
cut of from her great income, said to
be 81, GOO per month furnished her by
Thaw. and that the desire of Thaw
to cut her off was one of his princi-
pal reasons for going into bankruptcy
court was claimed here today. For
mer Governor William A. Stone,
Thaw's counsel here. today gave out
an interview in effect that Evelyn had
lost and intimated that Thaw might
have considered suicide before he
went into bankruptcy.
Gov Stone said: This petition of
Harry's will. without doubt. be
great blow to Evelyn. From all
can learn she has been drawing heav-
lily upon his resources. Yes. I have
heard that her extrayagant demands
have reached S1,00o month for
spending money. No man, of course.
could stand such thing as that and
but one choice between two courses
bankruptcy or suicide. Fortunately he
has chosen the sane course and by
the simple business transaction of
yesterday has effectually shut of her
demands. 1t will undoubtedly be a
great blow to Evelyn"
o'Meara Speaks Mind.
Detective Roger OfMeara. the new
ly appointed receiver in bankruptcy
for Harry X Thaw today had a long
consultation with Ex-Governor Stone.
after which he made a most sensa-
tional attack on the creditors of Har-
ry Thaw. In part O'Meara said and
! for publication: II don't know much
about the receivership business. but
| find it won't be very much differeeit
from what | always did. The job
now is TO get after a lot of thieves
annd bunco men and I used to be
pretty good in that line Harry X.
thaw filed his petition in bankruptcy
so every man who has a legitimate
| claim against him can be paid. There
are lots of grafters and petty thieves
who have been robbing Thaw who are
! trying to gouge more money out of
him, but they will have TO show me.
Has Already Spent s5oo.ooo.
Some sidelights on financial affairs
of Thaw and the manner in which he
has been treated by his family were
also given by O'Meara. Harry Thaw
but lot of New York thieves are try
ing to steal thousands of dollars from
him by false pretences. ! know every
move made since the night Harry
| Thaw shot Stanford White and
know who delivered goods and who
handed out the gold bricks. Since
Thaw was arrested he has spent half
a million dollars. II looks as though
every man who could butt into the
Thaw case did so for the sole purpose
of making a fortune out of one job.
Some of these lawyers have already
received more money from Thaw than
they have made in their entire pro-
fessional career. I told Harry several
times that he was being robbed. but
he insisted on paying money out as
fast as it came in. He didn't want
anybody to say that he would not set
tie for everything that was done for
him.

TRICKS OF WRITER'S.
A Ruse by Which kipIine Piqued His
Readers Curiosity.


"When l first began to read Kip
ling" said an admirer, "my curiosity
was immensely piqued by the scraps
Of verse with which he usually headed
his early stories. They were all cred
ited to poems had never heard of in
my life and were just such salient
striking fragments as would naturally
whet ones appetite for the remainder.
For over a year I tried hard to locate
those mysterious poems and enlisted
half a dozen book dealers in the
search. At last one of them wrote me
that I was wasting time and that the
alleged quotations were merely Mr..
Kipling's little joke.
stIn other words, he manufactured
'em to order and stuck them at the top
of his tales for the sake Of the odor Of
erudition they lent to the production.
I was mad for while, but when I
cooled off had a good big laugh. OF
course you know Scott used to do the
same thing, and so, for that matter,
did Edgar Allan Poe. Poe was really
the worst quotation fakir Of the lot.
"He would write wise sounding de-
tached sentences and credit them to
imaginary German philosophers with
long, outlandish and impressive names.
However, l don't know why the thing
should be punishable. The business of

AN OLD TIME BREAKFAST.
What One Visitor Was Treated to at
Washington's Home.

+
SD Washinston's Home.
The diary Of Manasse Cutler, the
founder of Ohio and the author Of the
ordinance of 1857, gives an account Of
visit he made to Mount Vernon
two years after General Washington's
death. We say General" Washing
ton, for that was what Mrs. Washing
ton was pleased to call him--a copy for
all those good women whose husbands
have won them honor on the field of
war.
Mr.. Cutler says it was the desire of
their party to arrive at Mount Vernon

Mrs. Washington, but the bad roads
and worse horses detained them, SO
they did not reach there until about
10, which Mrs. Washington regretted,
bat she said, Breakfast would be
ready in few minutes The diary
goes on to say:
In a short time she arose and desired
us to walk into another room, where a
table was elegantly spread with ham,
cold corned beef, cold fowl, red her
ring and cold mutton, the dishes orna-
mented with sprigs of parsley and
other vegetables from the garden At
the head of the table was the tea and
coffee equipage, where she seated her.

The point of interest is that break

there an appetizing array and doesn't
! the heart long for just such a scene
| OF course the mere feeders, the fell
lows that banker for hot things, may
not think so, but the very mention Of
cold ham, cold chicken, cold mutton
and cold corned beef all in the same
breath is an appeal to conscientious
appetite that is unresisting. And that
was breakfast Of the long ago.

Forest of Stone In Australia.

In Albany, in Australia, is to be seen
trees. The trees are of gray stone.
1t is suggested as an explanation of
the strange phenomenon that in the
depths of past ages the forest was in
full vegetation and then through some
upheaval of the earth 1t was buried in
sand. Little by little water acting on
the sand penetrated the branches and
solidified.
The wood gradually disappeared IN
der the layer Of stone and In time took
its form. Then In succeeding years
the winds again carried away the sand
and the forest appeared anew, but of
stone-London Globe.
