SEW ARD, ALASKA, TUESDAY, JUNE 29, 1915.
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw is a striking example to prove the assertion of
Kipling that “the female of the species is more deadly than the male.” Kip
ling meant, of course, not that all the sex or even a great part of it is deadly
but only the ones who could be ranked in the preying category.
While her former husband is fighting for his liberty the scheming
creature who brought him to his doom and led White to his death, says Thaw
is still mad. Like all of her kind she doesn’t care a straw if the whole world
were confined in lunatic asylums if it only meant convenience for herself.
Evelyn Thaw, no doubt, and lots of others of her sex began with the belief
that to be “smart” one must be “fast.” That belief is more general among
young women than anyone likes to admit. It permeates the life of all sorts
and sizes of communities but, Deo Gratia, it finds a fertile soil only in fops
and fools.
All the war prophets seem to have fallen down. If you wish to be really
amused you need only get some periodical about six months old and read
some of the predictions made by so-called military experts. Some of the men
whoso names were supposed to stand for all knowledge in martial matters look
positively childish in their forecasts in the light of present events. Human
knowledge in any of its branches is mighty limited.
Alaska is going to get frightfully cheap. Most oldtimers feared that the
coming of the railroad would mark the beginning of a time of smaller wages
and lower prices and they were right, but let us remember that the railroad
is not Alaska and that shovelling on a grade is not the sole resort left open
to Alaskans. The railroad will open new' country. There is still a vast area
of undeveloped mining territory ami why should the big prospectors caro w'ho
digs the way for the wheels if they themselves dig the gold.

NEW YORK. June 28.—Evelyn
Nesbit Thaw is reported to be leaving

Thaw, who is now again in the courts.
j She declares that he is still mad and
