mysteriously circulated. but not by
Fhaw. Whatever the figure may be
Ihaw is not spending as large amounts
as the natives hoped he would. He
pays we'll for what he gets. but he
doesn't want much.
He lives on the same fare the 9Th
ers get, and there is no reason why be
shouldn't. in view of its excellence. He
patronizes the local stores when be
happens to need what they can supply,
and when they fail him he sends tc
New York or Boston. 1t is an excel
lent guess he hasn't expended much
Tor clothing, for he is fairly slovenly
IN appearance. At any rate, If he has
bought much apparel he hasn't seen
fit to wear it.
DR.. Austin Flint. alienist for New
York state in the Thaw trials and
hearings, and William Travers Jerome,
chief of the states prosecuting officers,
have said Thaw's great danger lies in
alcohol. They have stated to the
courts that should the slayer take SO
much as one drink, especially of cham.
payne. he would likely enough again
develop homicidal tendencies.
Thaw hasn't had drink since he
came here. although he has had plenty
of opportunities. There is bar In the
hotel for guests. and wines and liquors
may be had on the table or in the
rooms So far as can be ascertained
Thaw has never been in the bar nor
has he had intoxicants sent to his
room. He is now a total abstainer.
His one vice, IL it can be@called a vice,
is smoking.
Outside the fact that he doesn't
drink and is more moderate In his
speech, Thaw doesn't seem to have
changed much since the days when he
was well-known character on Broad
way. He is still nervous, arrogant, ex-
citable and suspicious. His mandatory
nature continually asserts itself, but
he can be winsome If he chooses.
1t is unquestionably fact that Thaw
is trying his best to conduct himself
properly and to win support In that
way. In measure se is succeeding,
but the natives will never condone his
offense against society. Some have
no hesitancy in thus declaring them
selves, but good many believe he has
been amply punished. Others openly
declare he should be returned to Mat
teawan to spend the balance of his
life.
Thaw expects the next move in his
fight will be made in September. He
is optimistic as to the outcome, and
the chances are he will remain hare
quietly to await results. If he has
reason to change his mind he will have
no difficulty in escaping.

! Roads and paths radiate from it like
spokes in a wheel.
When Thaw first came here all the
year round residents evinced great
curiosity in the slayer Not knowing
| the symptoms of paranoia, they expect
ed to see veritable mailman, wild
eyed and at least crafty cratic. They
were disappointed 1t is true that
Thaw today has the same staring eyes
which have marked him for years and
that he is erratic. but he hasn't come
up to expectations by long shot. So
after a time they gave up paying much
attention to him.
Visitors from the city are equally
curious upon their arrival, but their
inquisitiveness shortly subsidies. They
find Thaw to be very much like the
other guests, save that he is some-
what exclusive. Much of his time is
spent in offices he has established in
the Noyes building, centrally located
in one Of the few streets this little viii
lage boasts. The rest of his day is
occupied in automobiling, fishing and
| tramping
Thaw recently bought a five-passen-
ger car. The report that he mixes
with the guests and takes them on his
outings is erroneous. In truth, this is
quite contrary to the facts, as, with
but one exception. his parties have
been made up of the sheriffs, his sec
rotary and himself.
The exception has to do with a
tramp up Mount Washington early IN
the month. This was made over the
northern end of the Presidential range
by way of Crystal Cascade trail and
was uneventful A friend from Con-
cord made up the fifth member of the
party. The jaunt proved Thaw to be
as hard as nails and an excellent can
didate for the Alpine Climbers SO
ciety
Thaw is too busy with his liberty
campaign" to pay much attention to
the guests of his hotel or to the resi-
dents of the place He has the repu
tation OF being uniformly courteous to
women and to such men as seek his
acquaintance, but he seldom seeks an
introduction on his own account. He
prefers to remain in the background,
which is unusual in view of his past
performances.
The refugee from Matteawan is a
fair trout fisherman when it comes to

When the village thawed out last
May, Whites slayer packed his bag
gage and came here from Concord
with Sheriff Holman A. Drew, in whose
charge he had been placed; Deputy
Sheriff c. d. Stevens, assistant to
Drew, and H. ]. Rice, who for some
time has acted as Thaw's secretary. A
suite of four rooms and bath had been
engaged for the party on the third
floor of the Mount Madison house, and
here they have since enjoyed life pend
ing the next legal move in the famous
case.
Gorham was selected as a summer
headquarters from which to direct
Thaw's liberty campaign" because
it is but a few miles from Berlin, the
home of Sheriff Drew. The sheriff is
an elderly, stout and good natured Of
ficial whose duties do not appear to
weigh heavily upon him. He spends
such time as suits his convenience in
the Thaw suite and the balance where
he pleases-usually at home.
Bodyguard Stevens is bit more at
tentive to his charge, but his cares
have not whitened his hair. Possibly
the only time he has been at all wor-
ried was a few days ago when ThaW
got lost on trout fishing trip. he
struck in at one point on Nineteen
Mile brook and Stevens on another.
Along about nine o'clock in the eve
ming, when nothing had been heard OF
Thaw, the deputy sheriff called up the
hotel and searching party was or
ganized.
This was led by Rice. With the aid
of lanterns Thaw was found about two
O'Clock in the morning seated on
rock in the middle of the stream calm
ly and with good sense waiting for
some one to come for him. He was
hungry and wet. but not otherwise the
worse for his experience.
He might have been deeply buried
in the Maine woods by that hour had
he been so inclined. This episode, as
well as others, is pretty good proof
that Thaw can escape If he is so
minded.

sort in the Androscoggin valley, and Is
