HOPE OF FREEDOM
Highest Tribunal Refused to Review
Case of Pittsburg Man Must
Remain In the
Asylum.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 20. Tho
door of tho supremo court of tho
United States was closed today
agatnst Harry Kendall Thaw.
At tho satno tlm0 tho door of tho
asylum for tho criminal Insane at
Mattowan closed moro tightly than
over beforo upon him.
Justice McKenna handed down a
ruling by which tho nation's highest
tribunal rotused to review his caso.
This was tho close of tho most
stubborn of all tho efforts of the
slayer of Stanford White to gain his
freedom.
Tho caso which has run th0 gamut
of tho courts of New York and prob
ably has received moro publicity than
any other criminal caso of a genera
tion is nearlng tho ultimate limit of
legal peregrination.
Tho august judges of th0 supremo
court will not roview tho pitiable
and nauseating story of Evelyn Nes-
bltt. Tho plea of tho Pittsburg pa-
raonoic will not bo heard. For tho
present at least Thaw must stay In
tho mad house prison, suffering from
the insanity which ho himself claim
ed caused him to kill Whito on tho
Madison Square root garden.

And nothing quito realizes that
happy condition so consu
mately as electric illuminntion.
You may talk about other means
of artificial light, but after all. the
korosino lamp, gas, ncotyliuo nnd the
various other forms of light, enn bo,
considered but stopping stones, load- i
iuh i u ins iuuai iiiiiiiiiunui elec
tricity. Wo havo roached tho culmination
point of illuminntion in electricity nnd ,
todny, nothing is known to making
that so nearly approximate sunlight
ns this wonderful forco.
No mntter how richly tho homo
may bo furnished, if it is poorly light
ed, it throws a depressing loom over
everything, nnd destroys tho cheer
ful comfort that every homo should
radiate.
The family cirolo gathers together,
around tho hearthstone evenings, nnd
that is tho time, above nil others,
that tho homo should be brightly il
luminated. Eloctrio lighting, with its soft glow
ing brilliancy, makes the homo moro
attractive, inviting, nnd congonin! nnd
not only nugmonts tho beauty of mn
terial appointments, but welds tho
entiro family together, voning, into
a hnppy, satisfied homo circle
If you want to drivo your boys
and girls out on the etreots ovonines
givo them a dimly, gloomily lighted
homo.
If you want to keep them in ovon-
ings givo thorn a pleasantly lighted
homo.
Electricity plays it part, with no
uncertain hand, in tho wolfnro of our
boyB nnd girls.
But thnt isn't tho wholo story by
any mnnnor or means. I
Eloctrio lighting in your homo is I
neat, handsomo, nnd clonn. It dif-
fuses a steady, ovon light, unnffected j
by draughts, and offering tho easiest i
ight, known, on tho oyo for rending. '
Unlikr nil nthnr liflito. It. nncta nn I
shadows, whatovor, but Sheds it bril-1
Iinncy in nil directions, unimpeded by
fixtures or brackets. No boat.
And in tho summer timo, you who ,
mvo iclt tho withering hent in tho
mmo, havo not thought kindly of:
your gasolino or lamp light, which
ins scorned to join forces 'with tho!
hot tomopraluro in an effort to mnko,
lifo well nigh unbearable
Electric lighting instead of heating j
tho house gives you a cool, rofrosh- 1
ing luminosity that call bo soon, not
