It Is no doubt a sensational way of putting it. that one, spree cost a man $330,000,000. but there's a story: he- hlnd it that gives it at least it plans. this setting. There seems to be no question of the fact that one Bob Womack. while prospecting in Colo ratio, was the first to find gold at Cripple Creek. He picked up a piece of surface rock which assayed .250 to ‘the ton. Encouraged by this, he “pros- pected" around the locality with keen- er interest. and at last struck a lode wrich as to deserve. even to aspen ficial observation. the title invented to describe the richest finds-4 “bonan- as." Passessed with his great secret. he went to Colorado Springs to “cele- brato." Half crazed with liquor. he not only gave away his secret, but sold out his claim on the new lode he . had discovered for $500. By the time he had sobered up and returned to the scene. he found all the best places taken. He staked out a claim or two in the vicinity. but they produced next to nothing. He was compelled to go to work for day’s wages. and never progressed further than that. Now he is dead at Colorado Springs. after a lingering illness during which he was dependent on a sister who keeps a boarding house there. UNION PRINTER KILLS TWO MEN. .

"cell- ed 'M on thematic“ this morning granted the modification with evident ism. and asked tflt her son might be per- ' mitted to remain in White Plains until Tuesday. She said that there were certain matters she wished to arrange with him which could be attended to better in 'White Plains than in Msttea— “1 would like at least live days," said Mr. Morschauser. "Suppose we make the date of his return Wednesday?" "Make it Wednesday. August 18,” the justice directed Mr. Stephens. "Of course." he explained. "I wouldn't do this except on his mother's account." . "Mrs. Thaw wants time among other things to arrange for a residence in Matteawan. so that she can occupy It as soon as her son returns." said Mr. Morschauser. The attorney then asked to have the suggestion in Justice Mllls' decision that his client he restorcd to the privi- leges granted him in Matteawan prior to his first sanity hearing before Jua- tice Morschauser be included in the order. Mr. Stephens said he had no doubt the Mattcawan authorities would regard the court‘s order without any specific directions, nevertheless he saw no objection to granting this request. The added clause permits Thaw to ap» ply to the court for an order to this effect at any time he is dissatisfied with his treatment at the asylum. This closed the court proceedings. Attorney Morschauscr and Deputy Attorney General Stephens left for White Plains. where the latter filed the fennel order with the clerk of Westchesier County. and both saw Dr. Amos Baker. acting superintendent 0f latteawan. (oaths purpose of hav- ing a definite understanding about. what Thaw may and may not do at that institution. Mr. Morschauser said before he left that under his interpretation of the court's suggestion Thaw would have a! bedroom of his own furnished with a table. chairs and other conveniences. He will no longer have to go to bed in the dark at 8 p. m. He will have a light in his own room and probably will be allowed to sit up until 10 o'clock. Provisions will be made about his smoking. Mr. Morschauser said that Mrs. Thaw has re-leased the cottage that she occupied last spring near the asy- lum had she expects to return there as soon as Harry goes back. Her daughter Alice. the former Countess of ‘l’armouth. probably will accompany her. and Mr. .and Mrs. Josiah Thaw will be there from time to time. Thaw's contention that his original commitment to Matteawan was illegal will be argued before the state court of appeals during the week of October i. Attorney Morschauscr said today that he expected a decision by October 12. He contemplates no further legal proceedings before that time. unless it is found necessary to apply for the or der directing the blattcnwan authori- ties how Thaw shall be treated.

Dr. Amos T. linker. of the Asy- lum, accompanied by the attendants. left here early today for White Plains. They said they expected to receive at White Plains during the day the or— der for Thaw's recommltal and the. re- turn vrith their charge late in the day. reaching the asylum at about 1 o'clock this evening. iiliiil in: Is I ' till Jlliiilill ilii Bridgeporler Honoredjn C.
