ste t ~Nixola Greeley-Smith Preece Tt Will; Survive Jerome's Cross-fire and Any Attack Which He May Make Upon the Wife. 110 EFFECT ON THE JURY _ IS INEFFACEABLE, SHE’ SAYS, Not One of the Mea in the Box Will Be Able’ to Forget that Mrs. Thaw Might, Had She “Chosen to. Do So, Have Saved Her Own Reputation. By Nrxola Greeley--Smith, IS is the fourth day \sInce Evelyn Thaw began to fell Harry Thaw's jury-the life Story which she hopes will acquit her husband of the murder-of Stan-| __ ford White, ; If ‘that j jury “could: have-render its_verdict immediately after the / recital “of the horrors: she had ~suf=) fered Harry Thaw would now-be a| free man. >, But for many days yet the jury must-listen--to--varying- testimony, none of which will be as impressive as Mrs. Thaw’s evidence, and’ much | of which will tend-to weaken its} effect. Will the story last? Wilt tsar vive in the jury's collective mind the cross-fire of Alicnist testimony, the attack on young Mrs,. Thaw which may be made? T think it will. fi There are sume impressions that are Imeffaceable, und In my opinion TVIXOLA GREELEY -SSITIL Eyolyn Thaw’s story has written heard it. SOME WHO DOUBT THE STORY. a There-are;-to-be- sure persons-whoclaim the young-woman-ts a con- gummate actress and that the-nalvete, the guilelessness she betrayed even "in the most tragic moments of her narrative were high urt. Evelyn Nesbit was on the stage eeveral years. She played :only very, small parts, and didnot play them well, when there was every inducement So-much for -her-ability_teacty there Js no Innocence absolute): for Ker to do 80. For the. rest, completely—without innocence. perfectly good women are born without ft, some utterly bad women never without guile, no guile Guilelessness—ts—a_qualityof-soul_—_Some.

How could he? Every illusion, every teautiful dream with which youth and poetry and-romance wrap—tho naked facts of life were for her shattered by a» joathsome yislon that mist haunt her forever.

It is her chijdlike appearance thal made the foul herrors of the story: she related doubly foul. She has been accused of emphasizing that childlike nepeot, of “inak ng-up" fer the part. Of course she did. Why should she not? As a woman endeavoring to save her husband's life, could she be ‘—expeeted-to-neglect-any legitimate means of Influencing the mén who are to decide his fate, : ‘And: she bos iviluenced t!em pernonently. No evidence that, Mr, Jerome can introduce will ever destroy the effect of the story she ‘ota. ‘And nothing can take from her the merit of having told It. Rvelyn Thaw could have sayed her reputation. But this ‘would have meant death or 9 mad-house for Harry Thaw. Instead, she gavo her repu- tation for his life. © And if Harry Thaw 1s freed he will owe his Ute to that vallant child in a-deeper and higher sensg.than he has ever owed it to:his mother. LONG'AGO THAW CALLED HER SO. Vahant is his-word, He found tt for her, Floundering tn hie-own in- coherent, bungiing vocabulary, Harry Thaw’s {lluminating love achloved * the one perfect word for her, For no woman in life or, romance was ever more yallant than this girl who bravely, simply, as all brave thingy are done, has offered her soul {n ransom for her husband's life. ‘No one who hard _her-story-can-ever forget It, Some who heard {t They may be wiver than I am.
