HARRY THAW CLEAR
Jury Finds That He Was Insane at
Time Fatal Shots Were Fired.

Adjudged not guilty of the MUIR
der of Stanford White by reason of
insanity at the time the fatal shots
were fired, Harry K. Thaw was on
last Saturday held by the court to
be a dangerous lunatic, and was
whirled away to the state hospital
for the criminally insane at Mat
teaWan.
No more unwilling patient ever
made a tourney to a state institu-
ton. Thaw'r train on the way to
Fishkill landing passed beneath
the very walls of grim Sing Sing,
but at no time since his arrest on
the night of June Is, 1906, had the
young Pittsburg millionaire ever
had the thought that he would see
the inside of that famous prison,
and he needed it not.
The first thrill of the words of
acquittal brought Thaw to his feet
in the court room, and the lack of
grace of action which always has
characterized his movements, he
awkwardly, almost haughtily,
bowed his acknowledgements to the
twelve jurymen as they were dis
charged by the court. There
was a smile on his lips, and there
was every reason to believe that
he was pleased with the outcome.
It was after he had heard the
words of Justice Bowling commit
ting him to Matteawan on the
ground that his release, in the
opinion of the court, would en-
danger the public safety, and after
the elation of the verdict had died
away, that Thaw rebeled. He COM
manded his attorneys Immediately
to sue out a writ of habeas corpus
to have his sanity tested before he
was sent away to the institution,
where the insane of criminal ten
denotes were confined. Mrs. Will
lam Thaw, from her hotel, joined
in the demand of her son. Martin
W. Littleton, whose conduct OF the
case as chief counsel for the de-
tense, has won so much favorable
comment, finally prevailed against
the wishes of the mother, indicat-
ing to her that he believed it
would be better for the present to
obey the mandate of the court.
Justice Bowling, it was said, had
been consulted in the matter after
he had signed his order of commit
ment and informally had advised
Thaw's counsel against making
any immediate contest. The prls-
oner's consent was not won until
after a lively scene with his coun-
sci and his wife, the latter pleading
with him for more than an hour to
be content for a time at least with
what fate had given him.
Under promise that some action
speedily would be taken looking to
the appointment of a commission
to inquire into the present sanity
or for his transfer to a private in
stitution, where his wife and other
memberes of his family might re-
side with him, Thaw consented to
90 without further protest.

LAZY MINING

Years ago a mining spert would
travel a hundred miles 0o a desert
to look over a property. Days and
sometimes weeks were devoted to the
trip and all kinds of hardships were
endured, but the program was repeat
ed without demur whenever 1t become
necessary to report on an isolated mine
or prospect.
1t is different NOW a days. An ex-
pert or a promoter may listen for an
hour to a claim owners enthusiastic
description of his showing, located
miles off of an ~untraveled road, and
about lifetime that he thinks that he
has things coming his way the other
fellow inquiries if it is possible to
reac the claim in an auto If not,
negotiations are off. The would be
purchaser refuses to consider a wagon
trip, and the prospector must either
build an auto road to his claims or
put his monuments near one. Are
experts and promoters becoming lazy!

MISSION.

Ism t it the mission of a newspaper
to help build up the town in which 1t
is published2 is a query addressed to
the Star editor by one of the leading
citizens of Tuscon last week. The
answer to this is easy and short.
Yes.
At the same time it is no less the
duty of the merchants and business
men of all classes to help build up the
of a city for the reason
that the newspapers of any city are
it's best advertisement. Without a
single exception the newspapers OF a
city can be depended upon to support
every movement having for its pur-
pose the advancement and u%pbuilding
of the community. A newspaper wor-
thy of the name has Mt desire to be
considered as an object OF charity,
but if the newspaper is to be a power
for the community in which it is
published it must and should receive
the patronage in preference to foreign
competitor who contribute snothing to
the support of the COMMUNICATION
Sun.

GILLETTE IN HEAVEN; UN-
FORTUNATE GIRL IN HE'LL

nChester Gillette / firmly believe
is in Heaven, Grace Brown, according
to my belief is expiating her sins IN
hell
~ am as confident as | am alive =
declared Doctor Mcllravey, THAT
Chester Gillette is in Heaven. His
conversion was complete. He was a
Christian man, and / never saw a
man go to his fate with more faith
in the future thar he.
"Grace Brown sinned; that we all
know. But | have no knowledge that
she repented and that her sins were
forgiven. If she died unrepentant, no
matter if she died a violent and unex
pected death, her soul is undergoing
punishment now, according to my be-
lief
This remarkable statement was made
by Rev. Henry 4lcIlravey, of Albany,
New York. who converted Chester Gill
lete, being his spiritual advisor and
working with him until the murder
err went to his death in the electric
chair. and until his confession of
guilt.
1t may not be good theology, but
at the same time it looks as if would
be good discipline to send a man-if
he may be called such-like the Rev.
Henry MeIlravey to the same place
where he says the dead girl is-or
better strip him of his cloth and give
him a good old dose of tar and feath-
ers. Ministers of the gospel could
accomplish much more good by utter
ing the hope that Providence has been
merciful to one who was given no
earthly chance to repent, ana gather
the frail and helpless who fall into the
hands of such a monster as Chester
Gillette proved himself to be, to His
Kingdom.
Rev. McIlravey should not laud him
self and ehastize her, but should
blame Gillette who was the only one
who knew that she was to die, for
from all evidence placed before the
jury she did not.
