| Hotei That Is Unique.
At Miramar, on the island of Ma-
| jorca, in the Mediterranean, is a free
hotel, where accommodations may be
had for three days, upon application
to the agents of the Archduke Luis
Salavator of Austria. It is a beauti-
| tul spot, and the entire neighborhood
ls full of attractions to the traveler.
Attendants in charge look after the
welfare of guests, who must, however,
provide for their own food. Beds,
linen and table appointments they re-
ceive gratis, and bread and wine can
be obtained very reasonably. It is
said that this provision is due to the
| ratification the Austrian owners felt,
years ago, when they first came to
live at Miramar. Such peace and such
loveliness, they felt, should be shar-
ad by all lovers of nature who passed
‘hat waz.
THAW ESCAPES FROM
MATTEAWAN.
DARING DASH FOR LIBERTY MADE BY
SLAYER OF SANFORD WHITE,
WITH CONFEDERATES.
Matteawan, N. Y., Aug. 17.—Harry
K. Thaw, the slayer nf Stanford
White, escaped from the hospital for
the criminal insane here at 7:45 o’cloek
this morning. A dash for liberty
through an open gate, a dash into the
open door of a powerful automobile
that stood quivering outside, and a
flight, like a rocket for the Connecti-
cut state line .30 miles away accom-
plished his escape.
Tonight he is still at large and the
hospital authorities feel certain ihat
he was outside the state. Once beyond
its boundaries, Thaw is free. Only
months, perhaps years, of litigation
can bring him back to Matteawan and
then only in one event—that he be ad-
judged insance in the state to which
he has fled.
Five confederates manned the carin
which Thaw escaped and a big black
limousine which trailed it past the
asylum gate. The police have their
descriptions and the names under
which they registered at a local hotel
Friday night and are seeking them.
The hospital authorities believe
Thaw has fled to the shore of Long
Island Sound and boarded a yacht
waiting with steam up to rush him to
Europe.
A reward of $500 for Thaw’s appre-
hension has been offered by Dr. R. F.
C. Keib,superintendent of the asylum.
Howard H. Barnum, the attendant at
the gate past whom Thaw flashed in
his break for freedom, is under arrest
and other arrests are expected to fol-
low in the rigid investigation begun
by Dr. Keib.
STORY OF THE ESCAPE.
The shades were drawn in the dor-
mitories and the inmates were getting
their second sleep when Thaw left his
room this morning. He was fully
dressed. The milkman’s cart war rum-
bling on the road outside as he walked
through the outer court or yard of the
asylum grounds. Barnum, pacing
back and forth when Thaw closed the
the storeroom decor behind him and
apparently did not grasp the signifi-
cance of Thaw’s early rising.
Long years of residence at the asylm
and repeated declerations by Thaw
that he would never attempt to obtain
his freedom except by legal means has
established the madman’s status as a
‘‘trusty.”’
There was little out of the ordinary
in his appearance, even at sp early an
_ hour, in the courtyard and if Bar-
num saw hirn—as to this no one, save
the hospital authorities, could say to
{night and they refused to talk—he
raised no question.
CAR WAITING FOR HIM,
A six cylinder Packard touring car,
black and 60 horsepower, followed by
a lin.ousine, also black, loafed lazily
along the road as the milkman drew
near the gate. Thaw, standing a few
feet away apparently unconcerned,
waited till Barnum unlocked the gate
‘and swung it wide to let the milkman
At the same moment the two
cars drew up on the furtherside of the
road,opposite the gate and stood still
their engines throbbing. As Barnum
stepped aside for the milkman to drive
‘inside the grounds, he heard the
erunch beneath Thaw’s feet,and look-
ing up, saw.the madman flash past
him straight into one of the waiting
‘cars. With a shout Barnum started
in pursuit, but a flying leap landed
Thaw safe within the car. The great
wheels were slowly turning before the
keeper had fairly reached the road-
way. They were throwing up a cloud
of dust before he had gone 25 feet.
Down the roadway the cars sped in
a whirling cloud of dust that quickly
blotted them from sight. Fora moment
Barnum shaded his eyes with his hand
and watched them, with the first blot
on his career of 20 years as keeper, he
dashed madly back into the grounds
and locked the gate.
“THAW’S GONE,’”’ THE CRY.
‘“Thaw’s gone—escaped!’’ he shout-
ed, bursting into Dr. Keib’s presence.
And in a moment the hunt was on.
The great black car flashed like a
thunderbolt through Stormyille, 10
miles east of Mattewan,along the road
to the Connecticut line. Early risers
in the little hamlet saw three men—
and Thaw—crouching low to escape
the sweep of their rush through the
air. They were going 70 miles an hour.
They were ten minutes out of Mattea-
wan.
Stormville marveled at their speed
and watched them melt away in the
dust of the state road.
The limousine had been left behind.
At the speed which the black car trav-
eled through Stormville, he should
have reached the state line within
half an hour.
