TILAW'S CHANGED APPEARANCE. The present Thaw trial is very similar to Co., Lap, the previous ones, and the testimony is practically a repotition of what has alrendy ben said and printed many times before, The contrt is crowded every day to suffoen. tion, and there is very little change in the rincipal characters of this morbid real-life
cama. The biggest change is noticed in
Thaw himself. Ha is far different from
the Thaw of 1908. In those days he was alert, native, and at times fairly brilliant. He confurred continually with counsel mado endless suggestions; in fact, con- ucted his own case. All this wertnes seems to have evaporated, and Thaw to-day is quiut, undemonstrative, dull; he seems stapid when in the witness-box, and does not seem to grasp at once the questions asked him
The other chief attendants in the Churt
are Thaw's loyal mother, his sister, his brother Josiah, and Evelyn Nesbit, the homicide's wife. The latter is now i' witness against her husband, and for the bust two days she has been giving testimony

by Shearn, Thow's chief counsel, scddonly blazed forth with the remark that she did Hot 100
intend that Thaw should again "hide behind my skirts," as he did, to use her own words, in his turn dirty murder trials." At the time Mr. Sheam was
