Her lawyer, Daniel O Kellly, urged her to take thle stand. It was pointed out to the girl and her lawyer that there was more than one alleged case against her.

Thaw listened with twitching face and roving eyes to the lawyer, watcnea his wire, who sat with downcast head. And, then as the conviction of the truth of the story of her misdoings came over hUn. the madness leaped to him again, and he sprang upon nis wife and artDDed her throat. Daniel CRelUy Is a big man, but It required all his strength and the added strength of a keeper to pry Harry Thaw's fingers from his wife's throat Xvelyn la Hysterics. Evelyn was carried into a reception room, where she gave way to hysterica. At the time her excitement was said to be due to the shock of seeing Harry sur rounded by gibbering maniacs. Later, however, when she visited her physician, she related just what had happened and confessed that if Harry ever was set free he would seek her out to kill her. On April 1 the young woman will be driven from the handsome mansion on Park avenue her husband rented for her. The lease runs out then and will not be renewed. She will be allowed to remain there only till negotiations with her mother-in-law are concluded.

But the parents tarried too long, for the young woman was 18 on the day the family started to California, and had her way. The family, Including the young woman, came up to this city last evening on the Klgln branch train on their way to California. On the tame train, but hidden away in the bag gage car, rode the gallant lover. On reaching the county seat he at onco procured a license to wed his sweet keart and so while the family waited Tor the evening train which should carry them to California and away from the Elgin lover, the young people hail hied to a minister and were married before auDDer time. There was a tearful scene wnen tne news was broken to the parents, but It was too late.

The check branded as forged was signed with the signature of Governor Curtis Guild Jr., of Massachusetts. A large amount of private and official stationery of the governor's was found in Wilson's effects, and has led the police to make Inquiries Into his Boston antecedents.
