SCREENING AS A SANITARY MEAS
 TIRE

The Graphic would call the atten- wire screens as a sanitary measure in this climate and for protection against flies and mosquitoes. It is well known fact that ordinary house flies spread disease germs of all kinds, particularly typhoid germs. Flies pick up thousands of these germs on their feet and bodies from their feeding grounds, fly to the house. get on the food and in the milk, and the result Is typhoid fever, if the fly has been where the typhoid germs exist. Your physician will tell you that typhoid germs ale communicated through what you eat and drink.
 The use of screen doors and win dows should be, and is becoming more general Only a few years ago screens were considered a luxury. As people are coming to understand the germs are spread both by mosquitoes and flies, and that through the-Hse of screens were considered a luxury. As a result of wire screens and disin- fecting of water pools, yellow fever has been driven out of Havana, Cuba, and other places where they had year ly great numbers of deaths. due 10 the disease germs carried by mos qutoes and flies, the more thoroughly they appreciate the screen as a pre- ventive of disease
 People should put in screens more generally It protects the family from disease: it protects the interior of the houses, and the screening of houses at some future time will be- come compulsory, just the same as the covering of all cisterns and wa ter tanks above ground in New Or leans is compulsory now, to prevent the breeding of mosquitoes. So will the screening of houses become com pulsory to prevent the breeding of flies and mosquitoes here, and thus re- duce contagion and save many valu- able liVc/ in every community.

Ii appears. however, that further efforts will be made, most unwisely, if seems to us, for if the family and friends of Thaw were well adviSel they would hardly wish to incur the risks of further trouble and disgrace naturally incident 10 giving him his liberty. He, of course, is mentally and morally irresponsible. But his family and his lawyers by putting in the plea of insanity, with the full knowledge that his acquittal on that ground would under the law, result in his commitment to the State insane asylum practically estopped themselves from seeking to get him out in the face of convincing evidence that he has not become sane. Their plea, which was successful, led inevitably to the prisoners commitment to Mat teawan. Their present position is practically that of applying for re. lease after having entered plea of guilty.
 It is reported that they will en- deavor to get District Attorney Je- rome's consent to Thaw's commitment to some State hospital other than Matteawan, in which case they will make no appeal from Judge Mor- schauser's decision. We hope the ct vi; o{t ,,l bargain. Thaw will be as well treated and as safe ill Matteawan as in any other hospital for the insane, and he ought to stay there. The object of the transfer, it may be supposed, is tC select some hospital where there would be better chance of success for the next application for release New York Times.

THE INSANITY OF THAW.

In denying the application for the release of Thaw from the Matteawan Hospital for the Insane, Judge Nor schauser says: T am satisfied from the evidence adduced before me that the mental condition of Harry K. Thaw has not changed, and l find that he is now insane, and that it is so manifest as to make it unsafe for him to be at large That opinion is solidly based upon the testimony giv- en at the hearing, and it dispsoes of the matter in the only way consistent with justice and the public safety. It ought to put an end to attempt to set Thaw free.

FEARING EXPOSURE
CLUBMAN KILLS SELF
Son of Chicago Millionaire Takes
Life as Result of Black
mail Plot.
mail Plot.

CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-THE coroner
jury, which sat in inquest upon the
death of J. Edwin Stein. twenty-five
years cid, artist and club man, son Of
David Stein, the millionaire clothing
merchant, found that the young man
had committed suicide at the Lexing-
ton Hotel through fear Of exposures
that might result from q blacImau plot
against his father.
The tragedy followed a pathetic in
terview between the young man and his
father, who was shocked 10 find that
three men had been following his son
and had gathered data which they re
ga-ded as sufficiently compromising TO
extort from him a large sum.
The son was summoned, and he de-
clared the charges false, kissed his
father gcod-by, went to the Lexington
Hotel and swallowed bromidia.
1t was found last night that the young
man had suffered for many years with
nervous arrangement, which had
caused great sOlicitude among his
friends and parents. and for which he
was several times treated at SANTA
RUNS He had also been abroad study
ing art in Paris.
