General Demand

of the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination Of Syrup Of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for it's remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well-Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the northumberland by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
per bottle.

COURT RENDERS DECISION
Finds No Change in Mental condi-
tion Since Acquitted Of Murder
on Ground of Insanity.

Poughkeepsie, N. Y, May 20
Harry X. Thaw, the slayer of Stan
ford White, will not be released from
the lunatic asylum. This is the de-
cision reached by Justice Morschauser
of the supreme court in an opinion
filed N the matter of ThaWs applica-
ton for release on a writ of habeas
corpus.
Roth points brought up by Thaw's
attorneys are decided against him.
The justice declares that Thaw is now
insane and should not be allowed at
large and he further declares that the
commitment to the lunatic asylum by
Justice Bowling after the last trial of
the case was entirely legal.
Thaw's lawyers have applied to the
court for permission to place Thaw in
some other institution than the Mat
teawan asylum and by stipulation
will be kept in the Jail here until JUS
tice Morschauser renders decision.
The justice is holding court at White
Plains this week and will not be able
to hear the application before next
week.
Believes Thaw Still insane.
In his decision Justice Morschauser
says, in part:
"Thaw, at the time of his trial for
homicide, as a defense pleaded insan-
ity and presented proof to show his in
sanity at the time of the killing of
White and by the proof offered on his
behalf the jury was convinced that he
was insane and acquitted him upon
that ground.
II am satisfied from the evidence
adduced before me that the mental
condition of Harry X. Thaw has not
changed and I find that he is now in
sane and that it is SO manifest as to
make. it unsafe for him to be at large

dition of said Thaw the safety Of the

Judge H. L. Buck of the municipal

although such words would be action
able if spoken directly to the person
addressed. He holds that by the time
the person offended had reached the
person speaking he would have had
