Then he went back to the witness chair
and Cook repeated his question.
Il can't remember all thai happened,
but # you ask me questions it will re-
fresh my memory" rh2w replied.
SO Cook began patiently asking ques-
tions, drawing from him that he had
dinner with Evelyn and another couple
at Martins, and that while they were
there EVELYN told him the "B" had
come in and gone out. That referred to
White, he said.
Then Cook asked him to tell in detail
what happened at Madison Square Roof
Garden, to which Thaw said he and his
party went from Martins.
"If you will assume responsibility for
lot of details of no Importance | Will
tell everything as | remember it," Thaw
said
Walked Up and Shot Him.
He told Of their getting seated in the
Garden and Of walking around by him
self and meeting some friends and cX-
changing pleasantries with them. AS
they were leaving, he said, he saw
Stanford White. There was an aisle
leading TO the stage, he said, and he
walked down about twenty-five feet.
Then he paused slightly and said:
81 walked straight up in front Of him
and shot him"
There vas something Of the fnality
of a pistol shot IN the way Thaw
spoke yesterday that carried his
words 20 every corner of the in;ently
listening courtroom.
Just before | sho: him." he went
on, "Mr. White leared on a table and
reached toward his hip pocket, as If
70 draw a revolver. After | shot him
! looked around and saw tho excited
crowd pressing back. | broke she pis-
toll and held my hands up in the air
to quiet them"
He took about ten minutes Of slow,
careful talking 10 tell his story Of the
tragedy. 1t was clear. easy narrative.
When he finally paused Mr.. COOK
urged him 20 20 or.
II think the witness has answered
the question very fully and very SEN
sibly," Justice Herdrick said.
"What did you say TO your wife al
ter the shooting?' Cock asked.
81 said. Perhaps ! have saved your
life" Thaw replied. 81 meant that,
Mr.. White, being dead, she wouldn't
have anything more - fear and would
be Tree 10 i've heE O"H 'iiS'
Witness Angry at Lawyer.
From this Cook passed TO Thaw's
relations with Clifford ". Hartridge,
a former attorney of ms, askine MIN
how much money he gave Hart-!dge.
Thaw started TO answer, but Stanch-
field quickly shut MIN off with an OBJ
lection to me question.
For moment il looked as though
Thsw was going to get unruly against
his own counsel. He scowled and
shook his head. When the question
was allowed he seemed relieved and
said:
81 gave him very lsrge sums OF
money for detectives and witnesses
and for professional services n my
defence" he said. until | heard ne

was losing 1t gambling, and ! rever

Dr. Frances D. Donoghue, chief physician and surgeon member of the Massachusetts worlmen's compensa- tion commission, just returned from Germany, is quoted in the Boston Globe as follows: "A German soldier who has lost a limb is, as soon as he is able, taught to do something to help himself and the government in prose cutting the war. Every prisoner is made to work; in one prison camp ful- ly 7500 prisoners are at work on the surrounding farms, for which they receive about 20 pfeggings a day. Each camp has a bank, and at the end of each day the prisoners are obliged to deposit portion of their earnings which will be returned to them upon their release. The Russian prisoners coming from the front are interned for three weeks as Q prevention for typhus."

In the Boston Globe, Herbert Cor ey writes that the Germans are using new device, called a flame project or. which terribly barns soldiers in the opposing trenches. 1t sends forth flames from gas cylinders. The gas seems to be oxyacetylene; whole con- trlvance looks like an exaggerated blowpipe such as is used by the plum bers, and It's range is about 90 feet. The Germans have also fire bomb. which they log over into the trench es from some sort of Q catpult and explode upon Impact. They also have been daubing field pieces with splash es of yellow, gray and green to simu- late landscape colors, and the paint. ing snipers faces and coloring their rifle barrels. Great force pumps are being operated at night in the trench es to throw lime and acid on the un- buried dead, making 1t possible for the living to remain in the trenches month after month.
