Danbury, Conn, Aug. 1S.-lt is be-
lieyed here today, that Harry K.
Thaw, who escaped yesterday from
Matteawan, has been in no hurry to
get away since he crossed the New
York state line. When his automo-
bile stopped here yesterday to buy a
cigar, he showed no agitation. Sew
eral of those who saw him remarked
his resemblance to Thaw but little at
tention was attracted because he had
frequently automobiled into this vicin-
ity before when accompanied by
asylum guards.
While orders have been sent far
and wide for Thaw's arrest, it is gen.
orally admitted that, as he was ac-
quilted of Whites murder on the
ground of insanity and as no Grimm
al charge now stands against him, he
cannot be extradicted to New York
state. Efforts doubtless will be
made, should Thaw be captured be-
fore he leaves the country, to secure
his arrest and dentention as dang
erous person. 1t is doubtful, how
ever, If he could be held on such a
charge for any length of time, and
it is probable that, if he is taken, eff
forts will be made to have him ad-
Judged insane in any state where he
takes refuge.

HOW TO WHITEN THE THROAT
Lemon Juice or Ripe Tomato viii
Remove Any DiseoIorations-
Alcohol to Harden.

Shapeliness is not all that Is neces-
sary to the making of a throat beauti-
full The texture of the skin must be
fine and soft, white and unblemiShed
Cleanliness is the first essential A
good thorough scrubbing with not toe
soft brush, hot water and soap, once or
twice week, will do no harm, the rest
of the time using the ordinary cloth
Apply lemon juice or a ripe tomato to
any discolorations that may appear
and unless the pores are enlarged
use cold cream freely.
Alcohol will harden the flesh. AS
for the various bleaches, there are
some that are harmless, except insofar
as they invariably are drying, which
ultimately leaves the skin harsh and
brash. Here ic one that can easily be
made at home, but, like the others, ii
is drying, SO be sure to counteract this
effect by applying cold cream after
using it. Mix half an ounce of peroX
ide of hydrogen, six ounces of witch
hazel and half an ounce of Tactic acid
Apply this with soft cloth.

MUST BE HAND EMBROIDERED
The Proper Thing for Both White and
CoIored Linen Parasois-Wide
Variety of Designs.

White and colored linen parasols
show hand embroidery. They are
mounted with ivory or bone handles
and tips or with light natural or pol
ished wood handles and pointed
tips Some of them are finished about
the edge with fringe, some with plain
hem and some with an embroidered
scallop.. A wide variety of designs is
shown in embroidered parasols. Satin
stitch, eyelet work and outlining are
used in combination to produce both
ornate and simple effects. Almost all
parasols are made with eight panels,
and half a dozen skeins of cotton ere
needed for embroidering each panel
with a design of moderate size; five
or six dozen skeins, therefore, would
be sufficient for any parasol. The big
department stores make up the en-
broidered panels into parasols and sell
sticks and frames.

FLOWERS THAT MATCH FROCK
One of the Prettest Fancies OF Many
Seasons Is the Adornment
Thus Effected.

What a real pleasure women missed
when they we're too prim to tuck a
bunch of flowers into their frocks, or
too fearful lest the stalks should stain
their pretty raiment
Nowadays flowers are the finishing
touch of every toilette, and some wom-
en- give orders to their florists or their
gardeners for bouquet twice or thrice
a day to match the gowns they intend
to wear.
In the evening it is usual to wear a
single and very exquisite blossom, the
work of human hands. A giant rose. a
mammoth poppy, an orchid-all are
popular. Strange fantasies in mater
ial are employed; here lace flower
tipped with fur, and there one made OF
hand painted mousseline, a marvellous
COPY Of natures own handiwork.

had been hurried changing to the
scene of the possible tragedy, the Mer-

more comet-like than ever.
But Stanton took the turns conser-
vatively; for him.
The race was lost. Even Stanton
could not regain the half-hour lead
given his competitors. Late in the
fourth hour he signaled Floyd to lean
closer, and when he was obeyed:
Where's the Duplex?" he ques-
toned eagerly.
"At it's repair pit for the last hour, "
Floyd made hopeful answer. "An'

Stanton shook his head, but let out
his car little faster.
The Mercury came across the line,
at the finish, just five minutes behind
the Atalanta; to receive fully as great
an ovation as the winning car. The
spectacular driving, the record of the
fastest lap and highest speed ever
made on that course, the second place
won in spite of the accident, almost
eclipsed the Atalantas victory.
In the midst of the joyous tumult,
Floyd descended, stiff and weary

sHREWD IDEA OF DIPLOMAT
Where Russian Officer of Embassy
Proved More Than a Match
for Abdul Hamid.

Diplomatists abroad tell how dis
tinguished member of the Russian
corps diplomatique cleverly outwitted
Abdul Hamid, the late Sultan of Tur-
key. The Russian displayed a curious
ingenuity in introducing the business
of his country in the guise Of personal
pleasure.
1t appears that the Sultan had ahso
lutely refused to grant an audience to
any member of the diplomatic body at
Constantinople and that during the
period in question Abdul Hamid spent
the greater part of his time in cock
fighting, an amusement whereof he
was passionately fond.
The Russian heard that his imperial
majesty stood in need of fresh birds
to supply the place of those killed in
fight. whereupon the willy Muscovite
procured a fine-looking white fowl OF
the barnyard species. caused it to be
trimmed and spurred to resemble a
gamecock. and sent ie in a richly deco
rated cage to tn Sultan.
The ruse was successful, but the
Sultan, at first delighted with the gift,
soon sent for the diplomatist to ex-
plain, if he could. why his bird had
shown no inclination to fight. The
Russian went, examined the bird in
the presence of Abdul Hamid, and
with great astonishment and regret
acknowledged that it was quite unable
to cope with the royal gamecocks.
which were undoubtedly of a superior
breed
conference followed on the subject
Of gamecocks in general; and when
this was finished the Muscovite sue
ceeded in drawing the Sultan in a
mood for conversation of a different
character. and in time adroitly intro
duced the political matter he had so
long awaited an opportunity to discuss.
After long interview he returned to
his embassy triumphant over his col
eagues.-Harper's Weekly.
