not obtain his entire freedom thru an
other trial, proposes at least to be sent
to some other asylum, where things viii
be more to his liking. Chas. Morschaus-

Morschauser. who signed the order re-
manding Thaw to Matteawan, has
charge of this new case, which is to he
tried at White Plains, and who will ask
that Sheriff's Jury pass upon Thaw's
mental condition. District Attorney Je-
rome says that if il is found that the
law is plain, emitting Harry Thaw to p
jury trial. he cannot oppose it, but If
there is any doubt on the subject he
certainly shall, as it is most undesirable
TO have the litigation prolonged. Judge
Mills, who granted the new writ, says
that it is only a matter of time with
regard to the jury trial; that Thaw will
get it undoubtedly sooner or later. In
the meantime Thaw is confined in the
Poughkeepsie Jail, occupying Sheriff

flesh all the time. and looking very I'M

anced young man who was the cynosure
of all eyes in the crowded court room
where his sensational trial for the muir
der of Stanford White was conducted.
It is not pretty story that comes to
us of the inside life of the Frank Goulds.
For years, we are told, private detec-
tives in the guise of servants have been
hired by Mr. Gould to spy on his wife's
actions, while Mrs. Gould, in her turn,
filled her husbands yacht, the Helenita,
with the same lynx-eyed, sharp-eared
people. What a life they must have led,
these two, each suspicious of the other,
and exerting every means in their power
to bring some disgraceful action to
light. 1t is difficult to believe that an
American man or woman of supposed
refinement could sink to such level.
It is said that Frank Gould has always
been insanely jealous of his young wife.
who is very beautiful, and that this
feeling, unwisely INDUCED, has led to
the present deplorable state of affairs,
Mrs. Gould has brought suit for abso-
lutte divorce, and a beautiful young
singer, whose voice, it is claimed, Mr..
Gould has been having cultivated by
the best teachers in Europe. is accused
by Mrs. Gould Of grave acts of miscon-
duct with her multimillionaire husband.
1t was reported some time ago that a
reconciliation between this couple was
hoped for and expected by the family
and friends of both, but when it was
made known to Mrs Gould recently
that one of her supposed servants was
found pceping thru, the keyhole, into
the room which she was occupying. who,
when discovered, admitted that there
were several others of his profession in
the house so employed by Mr.. Gould,
the indignant woman cut all the bridges
behind her leading to any possible re-
cancellation with her husband. and is
now determined to free herself entirely
from the yoke that binds her to him.

use the dark blue, called navy blue.
for the uniforms of both officers and
men. England set the fashion, which
we and other Nations followed, but just
how that particular color happened to
he. selected is perhaps not generally
known. 1t seems that during the
reign of George IV-in fact, just
-four years before the death of that ex-
ceedingly methodical, detail-loying mon
arch-the question of uniforms came
up, and Admiral Keppel, being in Lon
don at the time, urtmartialed on ac-
count of the loss of ship. was asked to
make some suggestions. His notion was
very pretty combination, which seemed
to please the King greatly. The matter
was apparently decided when King
George happened to see the Duchess of
Bedford returning from morning can
ter, attired in a riding habit of dark
blue faced with white and trimmed with
gold braid. This at once took the eye
of His Majesty tremendously, and he
decided on the spot that the new uni
forms should be made of the color of
my lady's habit. which was done, and.
as before said, initiated by nearly all
the navies of the world.
Matters have been moving right along
with the suffragets of England. There
have been no dull days, with little do
ing, in their campaign lately The week
ended June 80, which had been given
over to mammoth professions. meetings,
etc, proved most impressively the mag
nitude and seriousness of the cause. All
over England, as well as in London,
these professions and meetings were
going On, and the character of many of
the women taking part-doctors, law
yers, teachers, etc--revcaled the INTEL
lectual quality of the movement. In
one of the professions marched Lady
Francis Balfour, sister of the Duke OF
Argyll, and by her side an enthusiastic
suffraget of rs, who kept right along
with the others in spite of the burden
of years. The League of Self-Suppor'
ing Women from New York was V,
much in evidence, and at the mammoth
meeting in Albert Hall, which followed,
Dr. Anna Shaw, of Philadelphia,
spoke. But the GROWING success of
the suffragets was the big parade OF
Sunday. June q, and the great meeting
in Hyde Park That these women have
displayed a truly wonderful genius for
organization has been admitted by even
those men most bitterly opposed to
them. There were seven distinct pro-
cessions in the Sunday parade, with al
most every woman dressed in white,
wearing a sash of green, white or pur-
pie, each procession being about mile
long. The suffragets from the Prov
inces-and SO special trains were en-
gagged TO bring these into town-were
met at the stations by delegations.
formed into line and marched by diff
ferent routes TO Hyde Park. 1t is esti-
mated that there were fully 100000 in
and around the park, and it is pretty
safe to say that never before was such
a political demonstration seen in old
London About 20 women speakers
addressed the great throng, and altho
there was some attempt TO drown the
voices OF the speaker by the singing OF
