Thaw is now in his mother's Pittsburgh home on parole. Mrs. Anne Urquhart Stillman, wife of James A. Stillman, former president of the National City Bank of New York. America's greatest financial institution, won a signal victory in the divorce suit instituted by her husband, who sought to show that Baby Guy Stillman was the son of Fred Beauvais, a Canadian Indian guide. The courts have ruled that the child is legitimate and that Stillman, himself guilty of misconduct. cannot have a divorce. Mrs. Mary E. Hamilton, head of New York City's women police, has picked a dozen of her best-looking operatives and started them out on a crusade against "mashers." She ordered then to scratch up every male flirt, and asked every woman approached to do the same. If their finger nails aren't sharp, she urged women to use hatpins.
