Authorities generally agree that

good, pure whiskey possesses positive medicinal value. Both as a stimulant and tonic its use by profession and laity is widespread. Because of this fact the U. 5. Pharmacopoeia (the Government authority on medicines and their proper preparation) lias established a standard of purity for medicinal whiskey. Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey meets the Government Standard

and is even higher obtained only by a costly process. First of ail it is m;.de of grain entirely malted, although the Government Standard docs not require that all the grain be malted. As only clean and sound grain can be malted, inferior or defective grain never enters Duffy's, but only the most selected grains, including barley, are used. This careful selection gives Duffy's a medicinal value far superior to the average whiskey used for beverage purposes.

uffy'sPureMa

It Whiskey

then is a refined distillate, properly aged to acquire smoothness and flavor, without noxious substances to disturb or irritate the stomach or nervous forces. These are reasons why Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey does not even taste like other whiskies; why Duffy's is recognized generally as the one medicinal whiskey; and why, when you need a real tonic and stimulant, you should remember to "Get Duffy's and Keep Well." For the aged, for those who are "run down," for persons suffering from stomach disorders, nervousness or similar ailments who need a real builder-up of the whole system, Duffv's Pure Malt Whiskey has brought quick and positive results. It's "a medicine for all mankind." Sold in SEALED BOTTLES ONLY. Beware of imitations.

Conspiracy.

N'KW YORK. March 12. The ttory of his escape from Mutteawan and the subsequent tliht into Canada m told by Harry Kendall Thaw Thursday before Justice Alfred Page in the criminal brunch of the supreme court. He denied that there win; a conspiracy. He assumed all credit for the plan and the successful en'inerins thereof. He admitted paying Richard Butler "bitf Dick" as much as $6,000 out of which feum.Hutler was to reward the others and give Richard, alias "Educated Roger" Thompson, the chauffuer. a "present" of $1,000 in addition to the $10 or $15 daily wage agreed upon in Thompson's case. He declared that he had been advised prior to his escape by the late Alfred Henry Lewis, that theje was no law in New York state making it a crime to escape, provided neither assault nor bribery were employed. He added that following his escape and after his capture, Mr. Lewis,. counsel, was stamped as quite correct by Messrs. Morschauser, Carmody, Jerome, Kennedy and .stone, all of whom as lawyers have been allied at various times with the celebrated case. Thaw declared that his plot to escape was worked through "one of his agents" H. A. Hoffman of Pouphkeepsie, once under sheriff in Dutchess counfy and later special investigator for Morschauser, brother of the Justice and formerly associate counsel for Thaw. Hoffman, he declared, hired the men, arranged for the two motor cars two hired lest one break down and at his (Thaw's) direction stationed the cars outside the gates of Matteawan on the morning of Aus. 7. 1913. Thau Didn't Know. Mr. Cook, cross-examiner for the state, asked Thaw whether he knew that Hoffman was in the court at present. Thaw said that he did not. The trial Thursday was studdied liberally with surprises. Although Thaw strove valiantly to shoulder the entire responsibility for the escape, his testimony was of such sinister character that Franklin Kenned:, deputy attorney general, demanded at the close of the day, Iutler. Duffy, Flood and Thompson be locked up in the Tombs over night instead of being permitted to enjoy their bonded liberty. Justice Page so or

dered. The ruling came during the crossexamination by Mr. Stanchlicld of Rernard H. Kelsey. deputy sheriff of Colebrook. X. H. Mr. .Stanchlield asked Kelsey whether during his conversation:; with Thaw the latter did not appear to be entirely rational. Deputy Attorney General Cook raised objection and the crucial battle was

i j I S 2 v

tDODeriOF worumanshroseen Llsewncre. Yet PptoP.d i-s ?o f

precipitated.

the objection. "If you make this ruling on the ground that it is not proper crossexamination," declared Mr. Stanchheld, "I accept. Rut if you rule that the question is not revelent we wish to be heard." Hold Thaw Was Sane. The jury was excused from the room and Mr. Stanchfield and Morgan J. O'Rrien his associate, set forth

their contentions that nnd was sane on Aug.

that because he was sane Thaw took French leave of the asylum. "It was a crime under the statutes of New York state to escape," declared Mr. Stanchtield. "The escape was unlawful but not criminal." "Do you contend that Thaw's escape was legal?" queried the justice in surprise? "Unlawful but not criminal," shouted Mr. Stanchfield. "When sailors are in mutiny on a ship at sea on the theory that the vessel is unsafe, they have an absolute defense if they are able to show that the vessel is in unseaworthy condition." "Thaw cannot sit us judse and jury in his own case." ruled Justice Page. "Do you mean to say lhat a man who is conllned in jail and believes himself Innocent has the right to take the law Into his own hands?" Can't Lawfully llseapc. "This is a jiovel situation. I know of no precedent. Rut I am not here to review the commitment of this defendant to Matteawan. 1 do not see how a man can lawfully escape from legal confinement. If this confinement had been Illegal there would have been an entirely -different situation. But I have already ruled that Justice Dowling's commitment was substantially in compliance with the law. "I gave the defense wide latitude in permitting testimony as to Mr. Thaw's mental condition. But I fixed a point wherein the defense should contine itself. When I saw the defense pass beyond that point I sustained the objections of the attorneygeneral. I adhere to my ruling and sustain the objection of the prosecution." Thus the case will go to the Jury on the plain facts about the escape whether it was lawful or unlawful. Justified or not justified. Whether Thaw was or is insane will have no bearing. And thus develops the truly remarkable situation where an acquittal will mean more to the state than conviction and where a conviction is more to be desired by Thaw than an acquittal. If Thaw be adjudged guilty, his defense will contend that this verdict becomes automatically a splendid argument for the dismissal of the Dowling indictment. Held if Acquitted. If ho be found innocent of conspiracy the state will seek to hustle him back to Matteawan forthwith. "Should he be acquitted." declared Mr. Cook, "Matteawan attendants will take him in charge at once." Upon the stand Thaw was supremely self-conscious. But he answered questions fairly, promptly and with a logical Interpretation that augured well for him. His rheumatic neck and shoulder bothered him considerably and a cold muffled his voice. He was nervous and calm in turn evasive and frank. He gesticulated with the awkward unconsciousness of the highly nervous temperament but there could be no flaw found in his ability to concentrate and think apace uith his Interrogators. Possibly nothing was more iiitercftinjr not even his story than his verbal engagement with Mr. Cook. For the first time sine he shot Stanford White in IDOr.. Thaw was not facim William Tracers J rotne. Face a New Foe. The harsh, unrelenting examination of Jciorne made Thaw o,uake and loss

A note of exceptional local interest was added to the third delightful musical in the series of Twilght musicals, Thursday afternoon at the Oliver hotel, when Karl Victor Prahl, the young Mishawaka pianist who is studying in Chicago and calling much favorable attention to his work, participated in

tne program. The other artists who J

i'PPeared were Rachel Steinma'n Clarke, violinist, and Barbara Wait, contralto. Barbara Wait sang in South Bend several years ago at the May festival. .She has a wonderfully big voice with a richness and dramatic quality that give it high rank. The aria from Verdt's "Don Carlo." "O Don Fatale" was well suited to her voice and she rendered it most acceptably. Her other numbers were "Sapphic ode," Brahms; "In a Boat." Greig; '"One Spring Morning," Xevin; and 'June," Downing, of which the most charming were the ode and "Ono Spring Morning" in which she showed fine temperament. Mrs. Clarke's and Mr. Prahl's numbers were all of a heavier nature and were rendered with artistic feeling. They opened the program with a ".Sonata" for violin and piano consisting of three movements, "Allegro Risoluto," "Andante" and "Alleyro." by J Toward Brockway. It was powerfully done but was rather long and tectrnical. A group, however, including three lovely "nature pieces," "The Bee." "The Pwan" and "The Butterfly," by Schubert, 'aint-Sacns and Hubay, respectively, rendered by Mrs. Clarke was exquisite and she responded to an encore with "The Shepherd's Song" in which she proved still more delight

ful. Her closing solo number was "Hejre Kati" by Hubay. The young pianist contributed to the program a group which consisted of a "Xocturne" by Grieg; Habanera" by Chabrier, and "Scherzo" by Chopin. All are difficult of execution but were tendered with consumate skill and expression by Mr. Prahl. The audience was proud to claim him as a local artist and acknowledged his skill with hearty applause. The concluding number, of the beauty ef which too much cannot le said, was the "Agnus Dei" from Bizet for voice, violin and piano, in which the three artists participated.
