BRAvEsT WARRIOR OF THEM ALL
Mrs. Foster Has Earned the Title by
Her Long Fight in the w. @. T. U.

New York, June lot is five years al d
more since Mrs. J. Ellen Foster of Iowa
sprang to the front ranks of woman ora
tors by her famous speech delivered be-
fore the Womans Christian Temperance
Union, and aimed most pointedly at Fran
ces Willard.
Mrs. Foster does not want the National
Christian Temperance Union to be polit-
ical organization. Mrs. Foster is a repub-
lican herself jet black dyed-in-the-wool
republican, and, as such, she does not
want the organization to- take sides, be-
cause there is the awful fear and the
almost certainty that the decision may
not be in favor of republicanism.
Miss Willard, on the other hand, says
that the organization of which she is the
leader, will go with any man who will
promise to favor prohibition, whether he
be democrat or republican
Here is where the two leaders split.
Each has her own strong following
During the woman's congress at Chi
cago, Mrs. Foster has been lecturing
every day and twice a day and will re-
main in Chicago all summer, delivering
lectures upon her pet topice.
She is a handsome woman, a fine
speaker, a powerful thinker and the mag
netic leader of a hall full of people. Miss
Willard, over in England, may well fear
Mrs. Foster, who is at work in America.

Coy. Selectman Alanson Pomeroy of
Washington and other citizens of that
town had become very suspicious Mr..
Pomeroy owned the shanty where Coy
lived, and in looking it over became con
vinced there had been foul play there.
On the morning Of Oct 12 Mr.. Pomeroy
was out in the woods with his dog. His
attention was attracted by the dog digging
in "A clump of bushes and be went to the
spot. After digging away little of the
earth human hand appeared. He went
for assistance and he and the neighbors
dug up the body which was in badly de
composed condition, as il had been buried
from August to October
The tragedy resulted from the fact that
Whalen had been criminally intimate with
Coy's wife, and that the murdered man
and the woman had planned to run away
to the west. Both men were drunk on the
day and night of the murder, and Coy's
story Is that he and his victim got into a
fight on the night in question, and in his
own words, lit was question who was
the drunkest and who got the axe first"
The Woman I'm the Case.
The woman, who Is bright-looking
brunette of more than ordinary intelli-
gence for her class, said i'm her testimony
that she married Coy In Palmer about four
years ago; that she was the divorced wife
OF one Bates, from whom she had divorce
on account OF drunkenness.
After she and Coy had lived for some
time Ia Wilbraham, they went to Beckett
and then TO Washington. She first met
Whalen at West Beckett when she and Coy
lived in one of his houses. When Coy got
"a place on the Boston and Albany railroad
they went to live In this little house in
Washington.
After they had lived there four or five
weeks Whalen came To their house To
board. She said that Coy often left her to
40 To Pittsfield and other places, where he
got drunk, and would not return for day
or two. During these debauches Of Cows
Whalen made love TO her, and promised To
marry her and make her happy home II
she would elope with him
She finally consented TO take $50 ON
Aug. 2s and go to Albany, where il was
arranged that Wbalen should meet her on
the next day and go on with her to the
west. They had arranged to 40 cover their
their tracks they should never know where
they had gone. The plan was carried out so
far ~ her going 10 Albany, and she testi.
fed that she stayed there over night co
meet Whalen. but instead met Coy. and
when she found she was caught returned
home with him.
She said she gave Coy the money whalen
had given her, with which he bought her
gold watch and some other things, and she
returned to the little house in Washing
ton, where they lived together for a few
days only
