' ' Years af the state of Oeorgi was Oper ating the Nonhnastcrn rJlrcd. a thlrty-nlne-mlle local l!n! ' which 1 It , had taken under foreclosurn or bond, guaranteed. In payment of u cIhIiii of llie Situs relate for property' taken right-of-way- the gov ernor gave eacli of the. eleven heirs1 a life pass over the road. Subsequently the state transferred the road to the Southern Hall way and the purchasing corporation there after denied the life pass holders the privi lege of riding- free. The holders appealed to the legislature and that body has author ised the governor and attorney general to settle with the heir. The property taken under thi trade was claimed to 'be worth (8.000, but the state reasons that inasmuch as the heirs deeded It for eloven Ufa passes the adjustment of their claim must be based upon the value of the passes and not upon the value of the prrper'y, hence th governor and attorney general are studying; over the problem, what i th value of a life railway pass on a tblrty-nine-mlle road In the Interior of OeoVgia? Suppose the property for which eleven passe were ex changed waa worth $8,000; then each heir' pass was worth $727.57. Now. assuming the paseenger rat on thst hill-country road was I cents a mile, then each heir could get his money' worth In ST3 rides the whole length of the road, or In 186 round trip. But that would require only six months' riding at but one round trip a day; while each of the heir may still enjoy the expec tation of many year of life, according- to the mortuary table. If, now, each pas ty moderate dally use may be made to yle d a value of $727 in a half year, or $1,454 in a year, it is easy to see that in a life, of gay, twenty years, that perennial pasteboard may be shown to have a value of at least $3,080 to each heir, or an aggregate worth to all those affected of $31,880. The state, therefore, would do well to te .cautious about conceding that the claim I worth the present (valuci of ih. eleven;-, pefvsesi fop it would hot take much of a lawyer'-to eon' vine a Jury of the plain people that these 'n'tmsed noiri have a .life estate In their pass contract which'' Is worth many times the oriKiruil price of $.0UO.-Ratlway Age, .

The tilaj of Harry Kendall Thaw, slayer of Stanford White, the noted architect, will probably take place In December or January. This trial I looked forward to s. one of the most fn moii cases In the criminal history of New York state. The prominence pf the Thaw family, socially, the wealth of his parents, the circumstances surrounding; the young man', marriage to Evelyn Neahlt. the ar tists' model and rhoru girl; and the spec tacular ' scene' In the midst of which he fired the bullets Into the breast of the man who he claimed had betrayed his wife, all tend to attract ah Interest tn the trtnl ex tending; from one end of the country to the other. i , . ' For a long time an effort has been, made to have young Thaw rely ' upon a, defense of "emotional insanity." but be steadfastly has declined to give his assent to any such plan, and In hi determination not to agree to hide behind s cloak of Insanity, the cause which he Impatiently asserts to be Just, he has at on time and another since his Imprisonment dismissed several of the lawyers .engaged to help In liht defense, among them a former governor of the slate of New York. Principals In the T(edr. ' The players In this extraordinary tragedy of real life are each of them Interesting. Harry Thaw, the ever wayward son of rich and Indulgent parents, had become widely known throughout the country prior to the killing of Stanford White by reason of the publicity given to many of his escapades by the newspapers. ' His father, the late William Thaw, was one of Pittsburg's richest men. He had early seen that Harry wbs not to be entrusted with a large In come lest he give hirhseif Over to n life of luxurious idleness and liberty. So when the elder Thaw died he provided that Harry Thaw should hav only $2,S00 a year. The bulk of the estate went to Mr. William Thaw, whose indulgent love for her, chil dren wa oon made apparent In the man ner In which she luvished money upon them; Harry Thaw had but to aslt what ever sum he choose and the mother gave It to him. He abandoned his $6i0 a yearin come from the estate to his valet.. It is said that the young man's expenditures often averag-ed as high as $i,000 and $lotUio a year. f . Pour or five years ago the Thaw family cam into unusual prominence through th announcement of . the engagement of Harry Thaw's sister to the earl of Yarmouth. ThlB young Englsa..nobleman had been. In America for two years or more at that time. He was entertained at Newport and at the nd of a successful season there, durlng whleh he had led the gay set ln many amateur theatrical productions, he decided to go upon the professional stage to earn a livelihood in thla counter Xtl a - rr., ... - along this line were indifferently suctess- iui, wna.inen came tho engagement and marriage of Miss Thaw. Since that time tha earl. and. th countess , of Yarmouth have lived abroad. . - Thaw Goes Abroad. Following the wedding of hi slater, Harry Thaw also went abroad. When he returned to this country two. years ago h remained In New York Instead of g-oing to his mother'' home in Pittsburg. -. , -It-was ttot long before he was seen t wsys In company with a beautiful young girl Evelyn Nesbit, who . had graduated from the etudlo to ho stag. Young Thaw and Miss Nesbit were central flg-ures ,of many theater and supper parties along Broadway, and there appeared in one of the local papers a story to ths effect that Thaw and Miss Nesbit had been secretly married while abroad. Th fact of the mui iwn disclosed, It was declared, because of the fear that a dis placed mother might cut off the support of her favorite son. The story of the wed ding was tsken up everywhere and the young people were kept busy with denials. Their affairs attracted bo much attention that they were requested to move from the fashionable hotel where they respectively had been occupying expensive suites. Thl culled forth more notoriety.' The affair, of th. young people were kept constantly before, the public until it wa finally an nounced that Mr. William Thaw had con sented to her on' marriage to Miss Nes bit. Thereupon they were called to Pitts burg and in th mother' home a marriage ceremony wa performed. For a long time following' the wedding the Thaw' affairs were practically . lost sight of. They spent most of their lime In New York, were often teen together at the theaters and cafes and apparently their lives ran happily together. Stanford White Main. It was lata la the evening of Jujie 25 last that th. city and soon the entire country was ringing with the tragic news that Harry Thaw had slain Stanford White. The setting for the fatal attack had been the Madison Square roof garden, where the first night performance of a summer musical show known as "Mile. Champagne" was being given. The plac. wa. gay' In flowers and multi-colored ' electrlo light and wss thronged with a fashionably drvssed audience. On the stage a man was Singing "I Could Lov a Thousand Girls." when suddenly above th music the pistol shots rang out. Tho music ceased, the etiorus gtrla and actors upon the toge were terror stricken, men and women In th audience dropped their glasses upon ths table before them. In the stillness a man waa heard to say: "You ruined my wife, and now I've got you." Stanford While lay dead at the tabu where he had been Bitting; Harry Thaw, In evening dress, stood with a smoking pistol in his hand. His wife, who had seen lilm fire the fatal shot, was led screaming Bway from the spot and Thaw was sr rested. ' He made no attempt to escape. Whtte was vice president of the MsJi son Square Garden company , mid whs the architect -of that famous structure In whose tower he had always maintained studio. It was in this tower that Thaw had charged, time and time again since his arrest th.t Whit entertained young women at the gayest of 'parties. Thaw said he had frequently complained of tneao studio -parties to th. Society for the pre vention of Vice, and It hs been stated on authority tliat this society nsd made several Investigations rrlor to the roof garden tragedy. Wklts sefrlended Mlaa .Nesbit. It has been brought out since the shoot ing thst Whit befriended Evelyn Nssblt and her mother when the young woman first was brought to this rity to enter the studio as a model. Letters which passed between White and the mother of the gtrl have been published snd may play an Im portant part in the trial. There have been reports tint White sought the girl's so ciety after her marriage to Thaw, but thla ha bean admitted by neither si da. sod, ao far aa they could do so, counsel for both sides have-rlonel the mouths of the most iuipurUiiit it s , Thaw lias sought his Jutlrt stlon hi ii,-: aoid-i l. vlteit-d tg ills H(!:li on Hit- night of the tragedy. lo has clxlnie'l that under the "Unwritten hiw." no Jury would convict h'l-i of '.hsvlt.g takon 'the life of "the. msn who h.-ul traduced his Wife In her Innocent girlhood."

They said he hal assisted many young women tit make places for themselves In the world and that lie was no more deeply Interested In Miss Nesbit than lie had been !n a number of others shout whom no breath of scan dal has been uttered. It has been constantly stated Omt the Thaw esse would never come to ; trial, and thst the mysteries of Its mimy Intricate phsses would never' be exposed to the light of the public's gaxe, this conjecture being bssed on the report that a pleiv of Insanity might he entered and accepted. Insanity Defense Discarded. This probability., however. It Is now said. Is pent. Harry Thaw has himself stood In the way of spy such plun. It Is asserted that ln his refusal to glv-? assent to the Insanity plea he hs been stesdfastly supported by his wife, who, It Is also generally reported, had Con stantly urged her husband to take some action against Whire. Mrs. Thaw has been a daily visitor to tho Tombs prison and Mrs. William Thaw, who was recalled from Europe whert the tragedy occurred, hns also been a frequent caller. Th-rc have been man.v family conferences und many stormy Interviews in' the " young mail's cell,, his resentment being shown every time the suggestion of' Insanity hap been offered. ; "I prefer death .In the 'electric .chair to a life in an inauue asylum," tho prisoner la credited with exclaiming,. ,., Lewis Dalafirld, of rounsel to the Thuw family, was first called Into the case. Hn engnged Judge W. " M. K. Olcott of the firm of which former Governor Frank S. Black Is a member. They-had hardly been in the case a. month when -youiv;- Thaw after an Interview In the Tombs dismissed them. He called to his jild Clifford W.'

Now that- the trial is approaching he has called into -the case oelphin Michael Dclmas, one of the moct noted criminal lawyers of the weal, .f ho ha come on from Han Francisco to New York to take direction of the trial. - Mr. Dclmas hu been quoted as admitting that the "unwritten law" may be the defense finally decided upon. - . - , District. Attorney .Jerome will have per snnal charge of. the prosecution. He .de clared he , will - introduce only such- wit nesses as are necessary to prove that Thaw bad niadethceats against White and the eye-witnesses of the. shooting. U will be for the defense,, he. declares, ntryduc any evidence bearing upon the Past, llvii of the principals. If this Is gone into, howi ever, the district attorney, will offer evi dence in rebuttal. While the . presentation of the prosecution's case, will require only two or three days. It is expected there will "rent difficulty In obtaining a Jury and that the trial rnay continue over a period of, four or five weeks. SPORTS CF A OAT.
