June 20.—Thaw is busier these days preparing for his second trial than he was ^before his first ordeal. He learned much during the trial which he thinks will be cf vast benefit to -aim when another Jury hears the evidence against him. He thought lie would be acquitted on the first trial, but he is now confident that the second jury will set him free. * A great change has taken place in Thaw. He Is spending his second fund allowed *2.30 r>er child in the country. The expenditures. per capita on the children, in -the city and town sehool is $1,2,7-?-.; 1 The average number of days taught in the rura’ schools was 103. as against eight and a half months in the cities. “The statistics .H'iow- that five-sixths of the children of.-the State are not enjoying equal onnortunlties with the remaining one-sixth.hwho live within the limits of the towns and cities. This is neither fair to the . children living of usefulness and the need of a spe- I cial school of high standing, who'f- sole c-are shall be the development | and promotion of the science of agri culture in. which more than one and three-fourths millions of our people arc directly interested. "This college may not send back to the farm, farm laborers. I trust It will not. But it will send back to our communities trained and educated agriculturists. It will give us spe cially fitted and qualified young men as teachers in our agricultural schools and leaders 'of thought and examples of immeasurable influence over the community. "Our people are ready for a-forward movement toward higher ideals and a grander destiny. The croaker who halts at the exnense of education should be made to stand aside!. He must bb taught that the education of his children is not only an invest ment. but a security for every Invest ment that he already has.. That an educated mind and an upright char acter are not only more valuable than all the gold and silver he can hoard, but that they are the only security he can have for the enjoy ment of that which he has accumu lated. "We hear much of the problems of the day. of combinations of corporate capita; and their restraint, of rail roads end their regulation, of the ne gro and his disfranchisement, of labor and immigration, but transcending all of these in igror'nn.ce and vital con cern. I place before you today the question of the hour, the problem of education.' “The question of the Man of Gali lee is pertinent today. ‘For what shall it profit a man If he gain the whole world and lose his own soul, or ivhat shall a man give in exchange for his soul." ticularly Adapted to Their Condition, Free from Opi ates or Harmful Drugs and Hig'Hly Recom mended by Those Who Have Tried Them.

Now he has grown accustomed to his surroundings and the routine of the prisonl though that is not what is making him cheerful. It is his firm conviction that he will gs "scot-free” which keeps him in good spirits and anxious for the'autumn to come. Every day Thaw plugs away at the evidence to be presented in his be half. Hp has a copy of all the testi mony taken during his trial, and this he has been dissecting-carefully. It is said he thinks he has found many weak spots In the case presented'by District Attorney Jerome which can be suc cessfully combatted and overcome when another opportunity Is presented. At the same time Thaw is said to have found a way of strengthening his' own case materially. Throughout ail the time that has elapsed since the trial'ended. Thaw has had a constant friend and comforter in his wife. Evelyn Nenbit Thaw. She has not missed a day in calling on him. no matter what the weather or her state ests of the State. To mv mind the glaring weakness of-jour State educa tional system is shown in the rural distri ts of the State. "T believp the cry.'ng need of our system is the immediate establishment and the liberal snpro't of more, better- equinuPd. better taught, and better su pervised elementary bchonls. in which larsre numbers of onr'feountry boys and girls •troll'd be ena'-’led to secure larger opportunities and fitness for usefulness not obtainable in tfietprime-v schools and through which many others could reach and enlov the blessings of the State-aided institutions of higher learning. “I believe that utility should be the supremr test in education and that this standard ^bould always be kent in view in shaping the courses of study in the common schools, primary and sec ondary. At the same fitrie I do not be lieve it is fair to cut'the country boys and girls off from higher opportuni ties. and confine them absolutely and exclusively to elemental or vocational studies. ‘I plead today for i'*etter and wider USTSESSIiB.Y.P.1 WAS VERY BUSY ONE of health.

Mrs Cleveland informed the Associated Press today that his complaint is an old one. and that Dr. J. D. Bryant, of New York the family physician, and Dr. J. M. Carnochan. of Princeton, an always called in when the complaint becomes acute. She said his condition was at no time considered dangerou, and that he is now practically over the attack.

A statement was issued from the home of former Pi-esident Cleveland to night as follows: “Mr. Cleveland Is suffering from acute indigestion. The report that an oneration has been performed upon him today for the removal of a malig nant growth is absolutely untrue. N op?ration was contemplated. Mr. Cleve land is in no danger nnd will be around again In a few days.” Mrs. Cleveland is authority for the foregoing statement. Dr. Bryant has returned to New York. Dr. Carnochan, the local phy 5'cian, says that there is no cause for alarm; that Mr. Cleveland is doin nicely and will be around in a few days.'

June 20.—Rumors are afloat here teat Secretary Taft is likely to withdraw from the Presiden tial race on his return to Washington. His health is one of the reasons as cribed. It being doubtful whether he can stand the combined strain of mak ing a fight for the Pres'dc-ncy, running the Philippine-:, supervising the Pan ama canal management, heading the War Department and acting ns genera! adviser to the Administration in all sorts of matters. The secretary’s breakdown at Fort Sneiling is cited as showing that Mr. Taft is already overworked. Besides, he has never entered heartily into the Presidential race, and would far pre fer the Supreme Court. It is under stood there will be important confer ences between Mr. Taft and some oft. his close advisers when he returns June 22, and it will be discussed whether it is worth while to stay in til-- fie'd. While the withdrawal rumors lack confirmation, it is known that Mr. Taft's lieutenants here are not encour aged over the outlook and feel no great progress is being made.
