LEGISLATIVE PEN SHOTS
MOTHER OF MRS. EVELYN THAW
• SAYS SHE GUARDED DAUGHTER
Br rrivste Leased Wire.
Pittsburg, Pa, July 1*.—Mrs. Evelyn
Florefics Neabtt Holman, mother of
Evelyn Nesblt Thaw, has broken her
silence and apent hours telling a re
porter the story of Mrs. Thaw's early
life.
"Only Ood can know what I have
suffered," Mrs. Holman exclaimed. "I
have tried to be strong; I have tried
to bo brave, but without my husband's
counsel and help I could not have borne
the heart pain. Why, they Have even
said that I did not guard my child as
a mother should; a greater lie could
not be utered.
"Moat of these awful stories have
to do with the years when Evelyn nrst
wont on the stage,” Mrs. Holman con
tinued. “It has been said that I put
l or on the stage. It Is a foul, malicious
slander. Yes, I did send her to danc
ing schools. I Sent her to learn to
dance because all her little friends
went to dancing schools, and she want
ed to go with them. 8he had a bent
to music and art.
"Well, the day came that I got an
offer to go to Philadelphia. 1 was to
he a designer of gowns. Of course, I
thought Evelyn was Just right, but I
never had thought her especially beau
tiful. But one day soon after we ar
rived In Philadelphia my eyes were
opened. It seems that Just before we
loft Pittsburg I had let Florence go
away with some friends on a vacation
tit i'reason.
' "That day In Philadelphia we were
cut with a friend and suddenly Evelyn
.tumped In the air and shouted. Then
she ran helter-skelter Into a big man's
arms. She brought the man up to us
and introduced him, but I have forgot
ten his name now.
-. " 'Mamma,' she exclaimed, 'this Is the
grant artist from Philadelphia, who
vanted to paint me when at Creason.
He says I have such an Ideal, almost
sthereal face/
"It was In this accidental way that
the girl came to be a model for artists.
"I went to the studio with her and
found everything all right. I always
did that as long as she was a model.
"Such lies as they have toldl Never
would I let her pose In the nude. I
positively forbade It, and she obeyed
me.
"I think Evelyn was still It when we
left Philadelphia for New York. Bhe
was to be a model there and wanted to
go because In that city there were more
und greater artist*.
“They say her mother put her on
the stag*. False, false as any word
can be. Ood forbid! I didn't put her
on the stage. I wouldn't put a child
of mine on the stage. I fought against
It aa earnestly as a mother could. But
Evelyn had been stage atruck for some
time.
■They say I went with her to Mr.
Lederer. False. Bhe brought Mr. Led-
erer to me. Mr. I-ederer was as good
as a man could be to the girl.
He said to me: 'Don't let her go
homa alone. Don't let her go over to
rehearsala alone. Come to the stage
door with her. Be with her always.'
And those very rules I followed. Never
was she alone coming from or going to
the theater."
Asked to i
case, Mrs. Holman said:
“No, I must not, but there will come
a time when I can talk.’’
"But can't you say how Evelyn got
out from under your control?" was
the Inquiry.
"Not.now, not now,” exclaimed tht
mother.
"Why haven't you gone to New York
to Join your daughter?"
‘Tve wanted to, Ood knows I’ve
wanted to,” answered the mother. Then
she bit her lips and said no more.
“Is It true that you Introduced your
daughter to Stanford White?"
’It la false,” exclaimed Mrs. Holman.

soreness against any 9ns who honMfly
opposed him.
That Is perhaps a pretty fair test of
the DeKalb man’s breadth and
strength. He goes Into the battle like
a plumed knight, and If he loses he
accepts defeat gracefully. That sort
of a man generally succeeds.
Murphy Candler la himself a big mill
man, but he was one of the strongest
advocates of child labor legislation hist
year, when the senate Anally defeated
the Bell bill, and he la largely the au
thor of the stronger measure of this
session, which Is assured of passage.
Friend and foe alike say that he
plays the game of politics clean and
above board. He doesn't light by the
underground route, and he wins often-
er than he loses. Defeat does not dis
courage him, but only strengthens his
arm to renew the battle.
He represents the Thirty-fourth dis
trict, composed of Gwinnett, DeKalb
and Henry. He lives In Decatur, where
ho has large Interests. Personally lie
Is a quiet, unassuming gentleman, and
very much liked.
John L. Hnnd, representing the
Eighth district In the upper house. Is a
fine type of the business man who
turns aside from the private affairs of
life to serve his state.
He Is very wealthy, and Is one of the
strongest men In the senate. He Is
austere In his bearing, and drives di
rectly to the heart of any measure he
Is espousing or fighting without super.
Auous words, '
And-It Is the strength of his keen
logic and clear Insight Into men and
measures that gives him power with
his co-laborers. If they oppose him
they also respect him for hla straight

He Is a prodigious worker, and as
chairman of the appropriations com
mittee wields no inconsiderable power
In the distribution of the annual appro

A FARMERS’ TOWN.
The Deen Realty & Improvement Co,
of Waycroas, Ga, ha* started an Inno
vation at Offerman, Ga, a town which
the company recently purchased from
the Southern Pfne Co, and which It Is
proposed shall be made Into a model,
own for farmers to live In and run
their farm* within a radius of sersral
miles sround.
Thla Is s new Ides In the South, al
though It prevails generally In Europe,
d Is becoming quite common In th*
West. Th* Deen Co.’s town will have
this advantage over th* established
order In other countries. In that It It
used that all modem conveniences,
i as electric lights, waterworks, a
Ic library and a telephone system
shall be Installed at Offerman, thus
making this little town as nearly Ilk* a
city as It la possible to have It.
U I* thought that It the farm commu
nlty can offer the conveniences of a
city, the constant rush from the farms
to the cities may be checked, and that
th* farmer boys and girls mSy be In
duced to slay on th* farm.
This Is an Interesting experiment
which the Deen Company Is making In
the South, and It It should correct the
tendency, which Is regretted every
where, It will be a long -step toward
real progress for the agricultural
lasses, on which the South more than
any other section Is obliged to depend
for Its material wealth.
