Thaw's Escape in Pictures.

"Thaw's Dash for Liberty" "a faith
full reproduction of the recent escape
of Harry *. Thaw from Matteawan, is
the feature Offering at the Crown. Ev-
cry part of the drama in which Thaw
appears in the leading role has been
re-enacted for the movies and the
story of his adventure, which recent
" occupied headlines in the newspa-
pers throughout the country but few
months ago, will be wildly recalled.
Thaw is seen leaving the prison
gates which a milliman unconsciously
failed to close. and leap into an au-
tomobile which bore him through New
Hampshire into the Canadian border
land town. His arrest and trial in the
latter city and the final decision To
deport him as an undesirable alien
are sensational. Later. Thaw is seen
in Colebroolie, n. H.. where he sub
sequently was rearrested as a fugitive
and only through n writ of habeas
corpus could he obtain his release
The case was then appealed to the
United States supreme court and upon
the decision of that tribunal will
Thaw's liberty depend. All of these
events are recounted in the picture.

Chicago. ILL.,, May 5.-In Illinois. Ne
braska and other states of the middle
West the Modern Woodmen of Ameri-
ca are holding their state conventions
this week. These states contain the
largest proportion of the members CO
the Woodmen and the action to he
taken at the state conventions will
have an important bearing on the flu
ture of the order. The principal busi-
ness of the conventions will be to elect
delegates To the triennial meeting Of
the head camp of the order to be held
in Toledo next month. The rate ques-
ton, which has convulsed the order
for several years, is To be fought out
at the Toledo meeting, At the previous
uiennial meeting n special session OF
the head camp was called for Chicago,
where a readjustment of rates was or
dered. These were strenuously OPP
posed by insurgent members. and so
many injunctions were obtained that
the head officers finally announced
that no effort would be made to en-
force the new rates and that the en-
tire matter would 80 over until the
triennial meeting i'm Toledo. The in

VERA CRUZ WATER SUPPLY
IS NOT IN DANGER

Washington, May 12.-General Funs-
ton reported to Washington today that
Vera Cruz's water supply is not in
serious danger. There had been con-
siderable worry on this subject at the
war department and the general s re,
assurance was very welcome.
The water works, he said, could not
be taken from the United States force
in possession of it, and if the pipes
were wrecked they could easily be re-
paired. He added that there had been
no movement of Mxican troops to-
bear out the rumors that an attack on
the city was intended.
News had been received concerning
Private Parks, who recently wandered
out of the city, supposedly suffering
from heat stroke, and was believed
to have fallen into the Mexicans
hands and been executed.
