THAW Bridgeport Girl Proves Heroine in Noted Aviator’s Case Bridgeport, Conn., June 18.—How the compelling power of a woman's love .triumphed over the old song— “Never Marry'a Man to Reform Him" —1s the graphio story anent the mar- riage some three years ago of Gladys Virginia Bradley, a former Bridge- port, girl,. to Willlam Thaw, 3rd, of Pittsburg. While in this city, the former Miss Bradley resided on Clin- ton avenue. Bridgeport folk, in common with the rest of the world, have been watching with interest the outcome of this romance that began at Watch Hill, Mass., at a time when this scion of Pittsburg's elite was looked upon as another talented and fortunate one due to hit the toboggan in society's scale ;nd drink its bitterness to the very dregs Rivals Uncle'’s Lscapade. liam Thaw; 3rd, was looked upon as a hopeless inebriate, bound to sooner or later, rival the escapades of his uncle, Harry K. Thaw. His eccentricities both here and aoroad, | brought him into thgq lmelight in a not: altogether favorable way and his family, 'to protect his estate, valued at two million and a half, took steps in court to haye him declared a ha. bitual drunkard. It was at this stage of his '‘career that, in disgust, he hied. himself to the solitude of Watch Hill He had run the gamut, of exceses intn which his surplus energies seem- ed to carry him. was shocked when/ in gleeful voice he marched down the most fashion- able street, arm'in arm with a day laborer. His capacity for liquor seemed to know no bounds. One day at the Allegheny club he con- sumed sixty:eight brandies and sodas, drinking his companions ‘junder the table” so to speak, though they drank in' relays. Strong for Chorus Girls. At another time he conceived the idea that New York ' chorus girls were underfed and gave 'a, $5000 dinner (to them at the- Waldorf. ' At another time he became incensed be- cause a man handed a pretty mani- curist fifty cents. He proceeded to have his nails polished and gave the astonished girl $100. She was un- able to work the next day. His family suffered keenly from the annoyance of an Egyptiar girl who insisted that Willlam had married her while he was, traveling through that seductive land. The climax seemed to come when William {s said to have lost $200,000 | at: poker to “Do¢'” Owen aboard ship sailing out of New York. | Meets Bridgeport Girl. ' This was.the Willlam Thaw : that the then Miss Bradley K first looked upon and it was the lovely Miss Brad- ley that curdled tthe mental estacy that drink gave him and put in i stead an overwhelming love that has withstood ‘every. test for in those three years, Thay has not only been just “merely good’'—he has been a useful’' member of society; 'a doer of things worth while. i 4 Appeals to Mother. ¢ In estacies of delight Willlam went to his mother with the propasition. The latter wrote this note to Miss Bradley: . “To Miss Gladys V. Bradley, bride- to-be: “I hereby promise that if you marry my son, he will be a good model hus- band; that he will not return to his former bad habits; that he will not drink intoxicants, and will be a good member of society.” Previous to this note Willilam had promised to stop drinking for six months. Then at' the suggestion of Miss Bradley he decided to make it “unanimous’’—to wit: for good. Married in 1910. Mr. Thaw and Miss Bradley were married December 1, 1910, and Mrs. Thaw presented them with a home valued at $250,000. No sooner was the honeymoon over than William started right in to prove that his re- generation was complete. He has “honored the faith that was placed in him by the Bridgeport girl by bring- ing fame and respect from every quar- ter where bravery, genuis and man- hood is admired. Word has reached this country that he has been award- ed medals for gallant service as a pilot in the French aviation corps. He has been decorated with the mii- itary cross and has been promoted to sergeant. as an inventor—all this in the flve months that he has been enlisted in the American corps of the Foreign legion. He .invented a stablizer that has all but made the aeroplane as safe to ride in as a New Haven road passenger train. Hero in France. ¥ During his activities in the French corps, he made several daring trips over the German lines, gaining val- uable information regarding the posi- tions, of the enemy, returning tc by the shrapnel fire and his clothes torn from flying bullets. He also reads the Bible to the men in the trenches. And now all Pittsburg as well as the American nation, looks uypon Thaw as an idol—a hero while Bridgeport, is glad that the former Miss Bradley’s judgment is vindicat- ed. Also it speaks volumes for Bridgeport womanhood that can up- set all the axioms of phychologists that love and marriage will never re- form ‘a man.

MODEL CIVIL SERVICE LAW IS REPORTED All. Officers and Employes of States Except Flective Officers, Come Under Proposed Act. Los Angeles, June 17.—Presentation of the report of the committee &p- pointed to frame a model civil service | law for adoption by all of the states was expected to pracipitate the first lively debate at the eighth national convention of eivil service commis- | gioners, Committees ‘have been working on this law for several years, and it has been an important subject for dis- cussion at every meeting. The report wwas presented yesterday Caterwood of the Cpok county (11linois) civil service commission. The model law as proposed by the cemmittee yesterday virtually places all officers and employes of states, countles and municipalities, except, elective officers, under civil service. Even the civil service commissioners themselves would be placed under civil service and have to pass exn.ml. nations. The law, however, would except officers whose appointments are pro- vided for in the constitution, judges, judicial officials appointed by the courts, employes and officers of coun- ties or towns having In all depart- rents fewer than fifty persons and a monthly payroll less tnan .$5,000 persons employed by contract, per- tons under temporary appointment and soldiers, sailors and uniformed officers in the militarty or naval forces of the state.
