DETAILS OF DISASTER
YOUNG WOMAN ARRESTED.
Marguerite Monahan, Who Says She Is
From Cabot.

Burlington. April rs. Marguerite
Monahan, a 20 year-old girl who says
her home is in Cabot, was arrested
yesterday forenoon by the police for
playing pretty little game of robbing
the pockets of school children in the
CITY. At the time of her arrest she was
in the grammar school and had just
completed operations but it was learned
later that she had also taken money at
the high school
The girl was seen in the hallway
OF the school Tuesday afternoon and
said that she was in search of girl
- the name of Irene Miles. She was
told that no such person was in the
school and went away, but after she
had gone it was learned that a number
of pockets in the coats had been raid
ed and numerous small amounts in
change taken. Yesterday morning she
was again discovered there, and as mon
ev had again disappeared, she was TAX
en- into a room and the police notified.
Officer Miles was dispatched and. upon
questioning the girl, induced her to ad-
nit that she had taken some money,
rot more than dollar" because she
was without funds. Later, at the po-
lice station, she admitted much more
and Chief Russell learned of the thefts
at the high school.
The girl came here week or ten
days ago and has since been without
visible means Of support. She said that
a man had given her five dollars but
this she had lost. She was heartily
sick of her adventures here and in the
afternoon said that if she could get
back home it would be all that she de-
sired

Evelyn Thaw's cleverness was never

grave, fippant, thoughtful, silent and
verbose by turns, but she was ever on

She argued with Mr.. Shearn; she

White Plains, n. Y, June 29.-when

release from the Matteawan hospital
for the criminal insane, looked upon
his wife for the first time since Au-
gust, 1909, as she mounted the witness
stand few days age to testify against
him, he noted that great changes had
been wrought in the woman for whom,
in fit of insane passion, ne had muir
dered Stanford White. The girlish-
ness had entirely disappeared, the in
genuousness, so marked at former
trialse had ben replaced with worldly
cynicism, and the big, fawnlike eyes,
pictured by. artists as brown and melt
ing, had become as cold as steel. Only
when she smiled was there a sugges-
ton of the vivacious Evelyn of old.
There were other changes quite as
marked. The slender figure had be-
come a bit fuller; the arms and neck
had rounded out and there was an air
of independence about the woman not
noted at the@former trials. She was
no longer the clinging vine depending
upon the protection of the state prose-
cutor when under the fire of opposing
counsel II there was any doubt as
to this 1t vanished when, during her
examination, she leaned from the wit
ness chair and briskly informed
Thaw's chief attorney she was quite
able to take care of herself.
The metamorphosis of Evelyn Thaw
was indicated in physical changes in
her general demeanor and in her gown.

lar had been discarded for long robe

pumps, and a flaring pique neckpiece,
