condition. The excitement in tire
neighborhood is said to be very great
as the fire was, it is thought, started
by a criminal of the worst sort, and
happening so close after three other
inceudiary fires in the county, it ap
pears certain that there is reason'for
the people of the county to be on the
lookout on account of the danger
which threatens them.

Winhorne introduced a bill 0
amend the constitution by extending
the operation of the "Grandfather
Clause" to 1913. (The Republican
State platform demanded an exten
sion only to 1912.)
The Legislature is going to be even
more liberal than was expected to the
Confederate veterans. The commit
tees on pensions will, it is learned
Saturday, recommend a bill carrying
$450,000 annually, this being an in
crease of $175,000 over the present
annual appropriation. The commit
tees from the first manifested a very
liberal spirit.
A favorable report is made on the
Senate bill making 10 years' scpara-
ion a cause ior absolute divorce. Sev
eral lawyers appeared in favor of the
bill, which covers only a few cases,
one or two being perhaps notable.
Many of this kind have been intro
duced in past years to cover a parti
cular case, and only a few years ago
there were souie notable instances of
this.
The following bill3 passed third
reading:
To revise the charter of Lexington
To appropriate $20,000 additional
to the Jamestown Exposition, mak
ing the total $50,000.
To amend the charter of the South
& Western Railway, so as to give it
the power to condemn land on the

By a vote of 89 to 31, the House
Thursday passed the Kershaw bill,
providing for a board of examiners to
pass upon the fitness of railroad tele
graphers. The bill is a redical one,
prohibiting any one of less than two
years' experience to work as a rail
road telegrapher in handling trains,
without a license from the board,
which is to examine the applicants as
to mental, moral and physical fitness
as well as ability. No license may
be under 18 years old. The House
killed Mr. Kershaw's other two bills,
one requiring the block system on all
roads and the other forbidding keep
ing a railroad telegrapher " on duty

tail and as impressively as lies with
the Mjver of the prosecuting otticer
to iKiitray it.
The length and breadth of the
ground hies not been disclosed. Just
how far hack he will delve into the
history of the principles iu the fa
mous case no one but Mr Jerome
knows. He has not related the plan
of lis opening address to any one,
though a has been intimated authori
ty ely that the direct evidence of the
prosecution will he of the briefest
possible character, dealing only with
the incidents leading up to the kill
ing and the story of the tragedy it
self as seen bv eve-witnesses. One or
two witnesses may he heard as to the
alleged motive for the crime. It re
mains for the defense to open the
way to testimony which lias to do
with any relations which may have
existed between Stanford White and
Evelyn Nesbit prior to the slaying
of the aiehitect.
A Plea of Insanity.
The manner in which Thaw's at
torneys continued to dwell upon the
subject of insanity in their
sanity, which would be a egal de
fense, will eventually be entered. In
developing the claim that Thaw was
insane at the time of the tragedy, the
defendant "s atorneys may bring in
inch details as they and the prison
er believe will influence the sympathy
of the men who may have an unde
fined belief in the so-called "unwrit
ten law."
There is much speculation as to
what course Mr. Jerome will pursue
if Thaw's counsel began to develop
their plea of temporary insanity. He
ij prepared to combat their alienists,
but there is a possibility that he may
bring the proceedings to an abrupt
halt and apply for the appointment
of a commission to decide whether or
not th" defendant is insane at the
present time. Or he may let the mat
term be fougUt ut in open court, ex
pert for expert. In that event tha
trial v'.W drag out to a great length.
Sait Against the Thtws.
New York. Special. Suit has been
begun by I):". Charles Dana, alienist
called into the Thaw case when the
defense was in the hands of Wm. K.
Olcott, against Harry Thaw and his
mother, for $1,000 for professional
service, which he says he has been un
able to collect. Dana's lawyer, who
says the services consisted of consul
tation as an expert for the defense,
and an examination of Thaw in tha
Tombs, will move to have the case
called at an early date. Thaw's pres
ent lawyers contest the claim.
