testimony of the states alienists, who
have sworn without exception under
cross-examination of District Attor-
ney Jerome that Thaw is still insane
and would be a menace to the COM
munity if released from Matteawan.
DIR. Charles F. Macdonald was the
last alienist called by the state. He
was followed by John 3. Gleason,
Thaw's original legal adviser after
the shooting of Stanford White. DR..
Gleason came to Thaws aid yester-
day afternoon and cleared up few
of Thaw's apparent vagaries upon
whichi Mr.. Jerome has dwelt so per-
sistently.
Legal Shift Not Thaw's.
Mr.. Gleason's most advantageous
statement from the prisoners stand
point. concerned the dropping of the
law firm of Black, Gruber, Olcott &
Bonynge and of l.. l.. Delafield and
the engagement of Dolphin NJ. Del
mas as chief counsel for. Thaw. This
had been done at his (Gleason's) or
ders, he said and was not due to q
within of Thaw.
Through Mr. Gleason, Thaw's law
yer hopes to show that Thaw's atti
tude toward White was not due tC
decisions, as the state contends, but
was prompted by what Thaw knew
of Whites practices. Mr.. Gleason
has about so letters received from
Thaw which may prove one of the
sensations of the hearing tomorrow
if read Mr.. Morschauser tried tt
prove the charge against White to
day by reading parts of Evelyr
Thaw's testimony at the trials

upon this, tits thought.
Attack on Thaw Told.
Tarrying TO clear Thaw of anothe'
"delusion," Mr.. Gleason presented /
report of detectives regarding an al
legged attempt on Thaw's life on thu
night of Dec. "a, 1903. The wording
of this document was not made pub

CITY CONTRACTS
ARE CONSIDERED
One Is Let, Another Held Up
Aqueduct Job to Be
Inspected.

The city board of works last evening
awarded to p. ]. Moran the contract for
doing all the street paving repairs during
the coming year. Moran was the only bid
der and he offered to do it at the former
scale. Last year the amount of work
given to him under a similar contract was
Sle,5S0.
There was only one bidder, Zerbe e
Walker, for a sewer between Fifth South
and the intercepting sewer. but the bid
was so high that the board threw it out
and will readvertise. The firm wanted for
laying seventy feet of twenty-foUr-inch
pipe with one manhOle and with the city
furnishing the gate, $500. while the city
engineers estimate was only $3.50.
G. w. Heuser of Davis & Heuser, who
have the contract for the laying of the
aquedu on North Temple, appeared be-
fore the board to complain of the city
engineers specifications. He wanted to
lay the concrete conduit in sections. max
ing the lower half first. This was for the
purpose of saving extra excavation on the
sides which he stated would be more than
the original excavation. The board were
by no means disposed to accept this mode
Of doing the work and would take no
steps in the matter. but agreed to go to
North Temple street Monday morning at
10 o'clock and look the whole work over.
There was some slight criticism of the
manner I'm which the contractors have
started off with this work, which must
be finished June ], and c. D. Rooklidge
reminded Mr.. Heuser that there was
time limit on the work.
Only about 300 feet of excavation has
been done and sheeting placed. This must
be removed, City Engineer Kelsey insist
ing on a wider trench.
The board fixed April 3 as the time for
receiving bids for the water mains con-
tracts for the year

Remedies for Headache

There are many kinds and causes OF
headache, but probably the two most
common headaches result from nervous
ness or a disordered stomach.
In cases where there seems to be too
much blood in the head, when there is
a pounding in the temples and behind
the ears, warm drink will often afford
relief. Drink a cup of tea or water to
which the juice of lemon has been
added, as hot as it can be borne, and
place the feet in hot water. This will
draw the blood from the head and will
relieve the pain greatly.
Some chronic sufferers from head
ache claim that there is no cure like a
brisk walk in the fresh air with as loose
clothing as possible, followed by nap
in darkened room where the fresh air
abounds.
