MOTHER OF’ MRS. EVELYN THAW
SAYS SHE GUARDED DAUGHTER
It' I’rirtte Leased Wire.
Pittsburg, Pn., July It.—Sire. Evelyn
Pl'irence Nesblt Holman, mother of
Evelyn Nesblt Thaw, has broken her
fllcnce* and spent hours telling a re
porter the story of Mrs. Thaw's early
life. • s
"Only Ood ran know what I have
nm'ered,” Mrs. Holman exclaimed. "I
have tried to be strong; I have tried
to be brave, but without my husband's
• nun«al and help I could npt have borne
■ ' ■ heart pain. Why, they have even
raid that I did not guard my child as
n mother should; a greater He could
not be utered.
".Most of these awful stories have
to do with the years when Evelyn first
n ent on the stage,” Mrs. Holman con
tinued. “It has been said that I put
her bn the stage. It Is a foul, malicious
Hander. Tea, I did send her to danc
Inc schools. I sent her to learn to
dnnce because all her little friends
\\ ent to dancing schools, and she want
ed to go with them. She had a bent
to music and art.
"Well, the day came that I got an
otter to go to Philadelphia. I was to
be a designer of gowns. Of course, I
thought Evelyn was just right, but I
never had thought her especially beau
tiful. Hut one day soon after we ur-
rivod In Philadelphia my eyes were
opened. It seems that just before we
l"ft Pittsburg I had let Florence go
away with some friends on a vacation
at f'resson.
"That day In Philadelphia we were
out with a friend and suddenly Evelyn
jumped In the air and shouted. Then
she ran helter-skelter Into a big man's
arms. She brought the man up to us
nnd Introduced him, but I have forgpt-
ton Ills name now.
" 'Mamma,' she exclaimed, ‘this Is the
great artist from Philadelphia, who
wanted to pplnt me when at Cresson.

He says I hove such an Ideal, almost

“It was in this accidental way that
the girl came to be u model for artists.
"I went to the studio with her and
found everything nil right. I always
did that as long as she was n model.
"Biicli lies as they have toldl Never
would I let her pose In the nude. I
positively forbade It, and aha obeyed
ine.
"I think Evelyn was still Id when we
left Philadelphia for New York. She
was to be a model there and wanted to
go because In that city there were more
urn) greater artists.
"They say her mbther put her on
the stage. False, false as any word
can bo. Uod forbbll I didn't put her
on the stage. I wouldn't put it child
of mine on the stage. I fought agalnst-
It os earnestly ns a mother could. But
Evelyn had been stage struck for some
time. ‘
"They aay I went with her to Mr.
Lederer. False. She brought Mr. Led-
erer to. me. Mr. Lederer was aa good
us a man could lie to the girl.
“He said to mo; 'Don't Jet her go
home nlonc. Don't let her go over to
rehearsals 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 say something of the Thaw
ruse, Mrs. Holman said:
"No, 1 must not, but thera will come
a time when I can talk."
"But can't you aay how Evelyn got
out from under your control?" was
tho Inquiry.
“Not now, not now,” exclaimed the
mother.
"Why haven't you gone to New York
to join your daughter?”
'■I've wanted to, Qoil 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 Is false,” exclaimed Mrs. Holman.
Though defeated .for the presidency
of the senate last year In a memorable
contest. It left Senator Murphy Can
dler with no rankling of bitterness or
soreness against any ona who honestly
opposed him.
That Is iierhaps a pretty fair teat of
the DeKalb man's breadth and
strength. He goes Into the battle like
a plumed knight, and If he loses he
accepts defeat aracefully. That sort
of n man generally aucceetfs.
Murphy Candler la himself a big mill
advocates of child labor legislation
year, when the senate finally defeated
the Bell bill, and he Is 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 hla
urm to renew the battle.
He represents the Thirty-fourth dis
trict, composed of Gwinnett, DeKalb
and Henry. He lives In Dacatur, where
he has large Interests. Personally he
liked.
John L. Hand, representing the
Eighth district In the upper house, la a
fine type of the business man who
turns aside from the private affairs of
life to serve hla atata.
He Is very wealthy, and la one of the
strongest men In the senate. He Is
suiters In hla bearing, and drives dl
rectly to' the heart of any measure he
la espousing or fighting without super
fluous words.
And It Is tha strength of hla 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
away, above-deck way of battling.
He la a prodigious worker, and si
chairman of tha appropriations com
mittee wlalda no Inconsiderable power
In the distribution of the annual appro
priations. He Is the author and advo
cate of some of the beat measures In
troduced In the senate.

proposed that all modern conveniences,

It Is thought that If the farm commu
