Xi u ir work was carried on all
throu£ r ii Sunday and when night came ,
Jerome said he was now ready to,,
proceed.
Mrs. William Thaw will be con
stantly present at he trial until the ;,
verdict is returned. She has taken i j
-har'-e of her son's case with a1 ■
greater assumption of authority than ;
she has shown before. %]
Longfellow on Stand.
The first witness called by Jerome J
was Frederick W. Longfellow, one of ,
the Thaw family attorneys, who was
calkil bv the defense some time ago (
to identify certain letters which ,
Harrr Thaw wrote to him in 1903.
Jerome wanted him to identify :
letter handed him by Evelyn Thaw
upon her arrival from Europe late j
in 1903. i
Loncfellow met Mrs. Thaw at the ;
ihip. Oct. 24th. Mrs. Thaw on wit
ness stand, said she could not fix the
date er nauie of the steamer. Long
fellow said he had acted as Thaw's
attorney for some years prior to
Jane 25, 1000.
"Bid you represent this defendant
in the suit of Ethel Thomas against
Ham- Thaw?" asked Jerome.
"My firm handled the case," said
Longfellow. i
"Were the papers served on this
defendant?"
Again Delmas objected. Justice
Fitzgerald sustained the objection.
Jerome Taken Down.
In ihe argument on his objection,
Delmr.s quoted from Jerome's state
merit when Evelyn Thaw was on the
staiv l , that her testimony was permis
sablc only as showing the state of
Thaw's mind, and that he would not
be allowed to contradict it. *
Delmas said: "We told him we
would have no objection to his attack
ing ihe truth of his wife's story."
"Now do you object?" snapped Jer
ome.
"I am not trying to show that Ethel
Thomas' accusations were true," said
Jerome. "That would be a collateral
fact. Anyway, this poor girl is now
dead "
Delmas objected here to reference to
the Thomas girl, as a "poor girl," and
the statement that she is now dead.
"-Mrs Thaw herself testified that she
is (lead," said Jerome, who withdrew
the adjective "poor."
Continuing, Mr. Jerome said:
"Mrs. Thaw herself says she was
told the story of Thaw tying the young
woman to a bedpost, and beating her.
That is the story of Ethel Thomas."
Delmas protested: "I must serious
ly oi itct to the learned district attor
ney testifying in this case."
Justice Fitzgerald then ruled sus
taining th" objection to the testimony
as to whether the papers in the Ethel
Thomas  ;:se were served on Thaw.
vJercme Enters Protest.
"Did there come into your posses
sion at any time letters written by
this defendant to Ethel Thomas?" ask
ed Jerome.
Delmas objected on the ground that
any such letters must have been writ
ten prior to 1903 and therefore had
nothing to do with tne sanity or in
sanity of the defendant.
"Why, your Honor," said Jerome,
tho di'l'ciise has traced this man's dis
ease brick to measles and mumps. We
oi'giit ii, have seme right to show his
condi; ion down to 1903. The defense
jws I'-ii into evidence such parts of
iil'e as tiiey chose from his nur
sery days hi an attempt to show him
msane. May I not go into other por
tion* rjf his life to show he was sane?"
Delmas here objected to further
questioning of the witness as to Ethel
T honias suit on the ground that Long
i'Hov.- at the time was acting as
Tnaw's counsel.
" f >r course," said Jerome, "if you are
S°''ug to j,lead professional privileges
p a bar I cannot go ahead. But I
t-iMiiiimt t] Je counsel, in the interest of
wight waive "
oiir Honor," interrupted Delmas,

Attorneys Clash.
Jerome next asked Longfellow if
he was telephoned for in 1904 by Eve
lyn Thaw from the office of Abraham
H. Hummel, and Delmas again object
ed, asking Jerome what his purpose
was in asking the question.
Jerome argueir liis question was
purely for the purpose of laying a
foundation for the introduction of se
condary testimony to show the con
tents of the affidavit which Mrs. Thaw
said was burned in Hummel's office.
Justice Fitzgerald ruled that the wit
ness might answer whether or not his
conversations over the telephone with
Evelyn Nesbit had to do with the affi
davit.
"They did not," said Longfellow.
"Jerome then snowea the. witness a
photograhphic copy of a portion of the
Hummel afilGavlt ana another docu
ment and asked:
"You are familiar with the handwrit
ing of Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw?"
Longfellow said he thought he could
recognize Evelyn Nesbit's handwrit
ing, though he was not familiar with it.
"Did she ever deliver a paper to
you which she had subscribed to?"
asked Jerome.
"Yes, but you must understand I am
not referring to the paper you handed
me."
An Insulting Remark.
When the witness said he had deliv
ered that paper to the present counsel
in the case Jerome demanded Thaw's
lawyers to produce it.
Delmar, hotly retorted that Longfel
low had delivered to the counsel no
paper in any way similar to the docu
ments submitted to the witness by
the district attorney.
"I prefer to take the statement of
the witness," said eJrome. "He is un
der oath."
"That is an unnecessarily insulting
remark." said Delmas.
"You will find out bv interrogating
the witness that he did not deliver any
such paper to us," continued Mr. Del
mas.
To Condradict Mrs. Thaw.
Did Evelyn Nesbit Thaw ever give
jou a document by herself in
Ihe form of an affidavit?" asked
Jerome.
"Not to my knowledge," replied the
witness. "To the best of my knowl
edge I never saw that paper before
and know nothing about it".
Longfellow was excused and the
coroner's physician, Timothy Lehane,
lecalled. He said he examined
White's body.
"Did you find powder marks on his
lace?"
Delmas objected and Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Garvan said the testi
mony was to contradict Mrs. Thaw's
statement that Thaw stood 12 feet
fiom White when he fired. Fitzger
ald allowed the question.
' "There were powder marks on his
'race."
Said Thaw Was Rational.
Policeman Dennis Wright testified
that Thaw was rational at the time of
his arrest at Madison Square Garden.
Police Sergeant McCartty, on duty at
the station the night Thaw was arrest
ed, testified Thaw gave the name of
John Smith, a student at Washington,
D. C. He said he was rational.

Schnapps Tobacco Is Hade ENTIRELY from Flue Cured
Tobacco Grown In the Piedmont Country.
The Imitation Brands Have Schnapps
Quality Only On the Outside
Of the Plug.
Hundreds of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps to- (
bacco.t The outside of the imitation
plugs of tobacco is flue cured the same
as Schnapps, but the inside is filled
with cheap, flimsy, heavily sweetened
air cured tobacco. One chew of
Schnapps will satisfy tobacco hunger
longer than two chews of such to
bacco. The color, size and shape
of the tags, plugs and packages of
certain imitation brands of tobacco
have been made so much like
Schnapps that they have often been
accepted by buyers under the belief
that they were getting Schnapps.
Sufficient proof has been secured
to establish the fact that certain
brands are infringements and in vio
lation of the trade mark laws, yet the
trade will continue to be imposed
upon by these infringers until the suit
already entered and now pending to
protect Schnapps is decided. A
great many of these imitations are

claimed to be "just as good" as
Schnapps, but there is only one gen
uine Schnapps. Be sure the letters
on the tag, and stamped on the plug
under the tag spell S-C-H-N-A-P-P-S
and then you have it—the most
wholesome tobacco produced, with
just enough sweetening to, preserve
the mild, juicy, stimulating quality of
the leaf tobacco. Expert tests prove
that this flue cured tobacco, grown
in the famous Piedmont region, re
quires and takes less sweetening than
any other and has a wholesome,
stimulating, satisfying effect on
chewers.
If the tobacco you are chewing
don't satisfy you more than the mere
habit of expectorating, stop fooling
yourself and chew Schnapps tobacco.
Schnapps is like the tobacco chewers
formerly bought costing from 75c.
to $l.OO per pound; Schnapps is
sold at 50c. per pound, in sc. cuts,
strictly 10c. and 15c. plugs.
SAVED A STUDENT SKATER.
Princeton, N. J., March 8. —E. Mel
vin Updike, a Princeton student, broke
through the ice of Cold Springs
Lake while skating today and A. Y.
Striker, who was superintending the
cutting and removal of ice near by,
ran to his aid. He crawled to the edge
of the broken ice and tried to seize
Updike, but Updike sank.
Striker ran back to shore and re
turned with a fence rail, and as he was
working this over the space of clear
water the ice gave way under him and
be floundered in the water beside Up
dike. He managed to gain a firm grip
on the rail and worked himself along
it until he could seize the drowning
man.
No one was near to aid him, and it
was half an hour before Striker got his
heavy burden out of the water. Updike
was unconscious, but was resuscitated.
