on TRIAL TODAY.
To-day the colored woman Henrietta Louisa
Carpenter, arrested on the discovery of the re-
mains Of her husband, George w. Carpenter
beneath her house, No. 1919 HI street,
in the latter part of May, 1854, was
called for trial. The last seen of Car
penter was about Christmas, 1883.
In the latter part of May horrible stencil about
the house led to the discovery of the decompos-
ing body. Last winter the case was presented
to the grand jury and the result was an indct-
ment charging Mrs. Carpenter with the murder
of her husband with an axe on Dec. 25, 1888
The testimony adduced before the grand jury
was to the effect that the parties had quarreled
on Christmas day and she had struck him with
an axe, some of her children seeing the act.
District Attorney Worthington and his as
ststant, Mr.. Taggart, appear for the govern
ment, and Mr.. 7. j. Mackey for the defendant
An attempt was made to select a jury, but it
was not complete.
