Delmas seeking tho advantage of forc
ing his adversary, taken at a disadvan

Through It all little Mrs. Thaw sat
listlessly In ths wltness-ohalr. seeming'
ly little caring how the gams of battle
went She bad had a long and wear!-
soma day on tha stand, going ever once
more the details of ths evil doings of
Stanford White as they had thrown their
shadow over her life and that of tho
prisoner at the bar. Her bands lay
limp In her lap. her face was pale, her
eyes red-rtmraed from lsck of sleep and
teara Then suddenly Justice Fitzger
ald ruled against Jerome and forced him
to undertake -the cross-examination at

forced to Admit Letters. '
Darkness had fallen and ths chamber
waav-aglewwrth yellow- electric-" light
as Jerome dragged her unwillingly'
through a -mass of questions that have
for their object to pin ths witness down
securely to statements previously made
on direct examination. He read sec
tions of her testimony, touched lightly
upon her childhood, upon her life In
Philadelphia, upon her experience . on
the stageleaping back and forth apparent!:-
without cause or purpose un
til at length tie fixes her In Europe a
few weeks after the conversation with

a stats of nervous collapse, went home

Jerome pressed Evelyn for ths exact
date of her downfall in White's studio,
but she oould not place tt closer than
to say It was ths night following ths
day on which shs posed for "Beauty and
tha Beast." a picture in which aha was
dressed In a kimono, lying on a huge
bearskin rug. Jerome questioned her
closely regarding her knowledge of
Lederera divorce suit, but Evelyn said
shs knew nothing about It until she
read of It In the newspapers.
' "Did you, while In Boulogne, after ths
defendant proposed, write letters to any
person In America r
, "Tea"
"To whoraT"
"Wrote one, perhaps two letters, to

exposed. She added, "I always posed
with my clothes on.
Then followed a discussion as to the
first publication of a likeness whloh sp-
peared In a magazine la 101. .
Jerome took up a line of examination
concerning 14 letters written to Evelyn
by Stanford White while shs wss
abroad In 10I. These letters sre now
in posssssion of Thaw's attorneys.
When Jerome ssked her as to the
presence in these letters of Indecent
and Improper matter Evelyn said she
did not remember much about them. , .
Her mslattoaa with Oarland.
At 11:40 ths -prosecutor began his
eross-examlnatloa upon the story ef her
ruin.. He tried to make her admit dis
crepancies as to the time -of night
when It wss accomplished. '
Jerome asked Evelyn about ber rela
tions with James A. Garland, who was
seeking a divorce In ths spring of 1101,
several ' months before Evelyn met
White. - She admitted she end ber
mother had spent many Sundays on
Oarland's private yacht. Jerome post

when it ceased abruptly. ------
Evelyn told Jerome her relations with
her mother were always pleasant up to
the time of their quarrel. She said,
with a startled manner, replying to
questions, that she had no reason to
believe her mother would sacrifice her
for money. She thought if shs was the
victim of her mother's Indiscretions It
wss only a matter of misjudgment.
- Jerome tried by, every means to pick
naws in Kveiyn s testimony previously
given. - - He unearthed apparent eases
where two statements conflicted, but
ths witness wss always ready with an
explanation and could not be trapped.
Jerome asked if she was a corespond
ent in the Oarland divorce, but upon
Delmas' objection he withdrew the ques
tlon.

The first tangible evidence that How

Jerome reverted to the time when Eve
lyn waa a member of the "Florodora'
company and asked if her mother called
for her at Jhe theatre. She said she
did, every night. Jerome asked If her
brother ever called for her. Evelyn
said once, when her mother was sick.
Jerome presented a letter, asking Eve
lyn it she oould identify it as her broth
er's handwriting. - She did so.
without questioning her, Jerome sud
denly aaked for an adjournment, which
was taken until Z o clock.
Evelyn left the chair much relieved.

According to his story he has been

and three nights weekly he acta- as
night clerk of the hotel. Some time
last week, the exact date he does not
remember, while showing a prospective
roomer around the hotel, found ' the
casket In one of the vacant apartments.
Meyer' says that, none of the valuables
reported missing were In the chest with
the exception of the snake ring, the
small diamond and a piece of gold. -
Astonished by his find, the youth says
he showed the casket and contents to a
Mr. Martin employed at Feldenhelmer's
jewelry store. Believing that the ring
was worthless, Meyer says he threw it
away, along with the rest Of ths articles
and gave ths chest to Martin, who
wanted to use It as a cigar ease.
Martin la being sought by the detec
tives and may he able to satisfy tha
officers' that he did not have a hand In
the theft. ,,
Meyer, upon learning yesterday that
the Elys bad missed the cpest from
their apartments, went t- his room and
took the Jewel-case to Its owner, say
ing that he bad found It several days
ago In the hall. He told several con
flicting stories regarding his possession
of the case, and the police are satisfied
that he la not telling the truth. His
explanation of disposing of the ring by
throwing it into the street is regarded
as a myth, snd an effort will be made
to Induce him to reveal the hiding-place
of the other article,
If ths Jewelry Is returned it Is not
probable that the boy will be prosecut

offsnse of the kind so far as known.

that it is largely employed In the treatment of depraved mucous membranes,

is used as bitter tonic and in the treatment of dysentery, and in intermittent

' . OIL OF COPAIBA, another ingredient of Peruna, is classed by the United
States Dispensatory as a mild stimulant and, diuretic It acts on the stomach
and intestinal tract It acts as a stimulant on the genitcrurinary membranes.
Useful in chronio cystitis chronio dysentery and diarrhea, and some chronio
disease of the liver and kidneys.
THS FJHSE3T AUTHORITY OS THERAPEUTICS, BARTH0LOW, in
speaking of these same ingredient of Peruna is even more enthusiastic as to
their medicinal merit , ,
'OF HYDRASTIS, HE SAYS it is applicable to stomatitis (catarrh of
the mucous surfaces of the mouth), follicular pharyngitis- (catarrh of the
pharynx), chronio coryza (catarrh or
the head). This writer classes hy
drastis as stomachio tonic, useful in

Some of these ingredient ar not
