SHE BUILT A 20 FOOT FENCE.

Mrs. Faitoute No. Was Annoyed by
the Sight of Mrs. Faitoute No. 2.
This is the history of the fence erected
at Woodside, n. j., by Mrs. Abbie B.
Faitoute in order to cut off the view OF
her former husband, Frederick B. Far
toute, enjoying domestic bliss with his
second wife, says the New York World
Since it was put up Mrs. Faitoute No.
! has not again been annoyed by any of
the irritating speCtacles which for many
months previously had disturbed her
peace. Sue has not been compelled to be
a spectator of her former husband and
Mrs. Faitoute No. 2 billing and cooling
over their breakfast in the house next
door, where they lived.
The hateful spectacle of Mrs. Faitoute
No. 2 in a new spring bonnet, going
out for afternoon shopping, has not filled
her field of vision, for large expanse
OF smooth fence has cut off the view.
When Mr.. Faitoute comes home at night
his former wife, who got divorce from
him, is not obliged TO witness his joyful re-
union with her successor, her coming out
10 the gate to meet him, her smiles of
happiness when he comes in sight and her
effusive method of throwing her arms
around his neck.
All these scenes of domestic bliss, so ir-
ritating to the former wife, have now been
obliterated by the twenty-foot high
fence which she originated 1t has not
even knot-hole in il she could see
through if so disposed.
She desired TO wipe Faitoute and his sec
ond wife out of her daily life and she has
done it at considerable expense. but with
emphasis. Her parents, moreover live
in the rear of Mr. Faitoute's house. They
have Joined with their daughter in con-
tinuing the fence across their own property
so as TO shut out all view of the Faitoute
household for their daughter when she
visits their house.
All of this fence building, however, only
gives MI. Faitoute and his second wife ad-
ditional privacy and they are low fairly
shut in from the obtrusive view OF their
neighbOrs. But Mrs. Faitoute No l is
satisfied<so long as she escapes the ir-
ritating spectacle of the loyemaking.

Judpa Smith then thankad the iurv

Judge Smith then thanked the jury for their labors in connection with the case. When the court announced that sentence would be deferred until Mon, day Hayward was evidently pleased. lie expressed the opinion, while being removed from the court room, that the verdict was an outrage and that he was a long way from hangman yet.
 It was learned that on the first vote taken 8 unanimous verdict of guilty was reached by the jury. At the re- quest of the attorneys for the defense none of the prisoners relatives were in the room when the verdict was read For two hours after the verdict had been announced the crowd remained discussing the case on the sidewalks and about the court house and jail. The unanimous opinion seemed to be that the verdict was just one and that the truth had prevailed.
 To illustrate the consummate nerve and nonchalance of Hayward after he had been taken to jail following the re- tlrement of the jury, he turned to one of the officers with the remark, "Let's play game of cards on the result" to which reply was made by one of the deputies, "I'll come in there and play Harry, if you'll promise not to kill me.o

The Southern Pacific Friendliness to Tucson Is at Last Made
 Public Matter.

What was lacking in interest and importance in the legislature yesterday was more than made up in volume. More bills were returned to both branches with the governors signature than on any previous day. More bills were also gotten ready for his signature than on any preceding day. Among the new and full hedged laws is the board of control bill. The house bill abolish ing the office of territorial school super. lntendent was defeated in the council, or what amounts to the same thing, it failed of passage by tie vote.
 The alleged determination, of the Southern Pacific in favor of Tucson was made public matter by the presenta tion of petition from residents of No gales for legislative remedy.
 Among the new laws created yester day was one making military instruc tion a part of the public school course

Williams.
 The hold-up of J. H. Williams, which occurred on Wednesday night, was much more serious than was at first re- ported. The robbery occurred on Tenth avenue nearl Madison and there were two robbers.
 Mir. Williams had reached Madison street and was passing small clump of bushes, when one of the men stepped out and told him to stop. He asked what was wanted, and was informed "his money" He told them that he none and reached into his pocket for his knife when one of the men struck him on the wrist with a heavy club, and then struck at him with knife which cut through his vest and shirt, making slight flesh wound.
 On refusing to give up his money he was hit over the eye with some kind of blunt instrument which knocked him down and when he regained conscious ness he found that the men had gone through his pockets and taken two $5 gold pieces and s4.65 in silver.

HE IS GUILTY. Harry Hayward Con- Victed Yesterday Of the Murder of Cath
 crime Cling. The Prisoners Remarkable Nerve Did Not Desert Him. While Waiting for the Verdict He Wanted to Bet on
 the Result.
By the Associate Press

By the Associated Press.
 MINNEAPOLIS, March S.-Harry Hay ward was found guilty today oi the murder of Catherine Cling, and the most extraordinary trial in criminal annals was closed.
 The case had been with the jury less than an hour and when verdict was reached court had adjourned. A mes- senger was dispatched for Judge Smith.
 When he arrived he issued strict or ders to admit no one and the injunction was religiously observed. kobler, the county clerk, asked in a tremulous voice whether the jury had agreed upon verdict, and Neil McNeil, the foreman, stood up. His face was ghastly in it's color and there was not a man on the jury unaffected by the intense gravity of the situation.
 We have agreed" said McNeil in a voice that was scarcely audible and folded the piece of paper that meant life or death to the accused, was hande d to the clerk. Judge Smith looked over the document first and returned it to the clerk.
 "We, the jury, find the prisoner guilty" he read. Every eye was turned toward the condemned man, but there was nothing in his face to indi- cate that he had heard a word of It. He threw his head back as the word guilty" was pronounced. but it was only to adjust his collar. He did not change color by single shade. Twice he coughed. that strange and hard me. tallic cough that has been heard so often in the last few weeks.
 Then looking around at the crowd he raised his eyebrows inquiringly as though to ask: "What next?" During the polling of the jury he listened with evident interest to the answers, though what they might say could signify nothing to him. The expression on his face was of indignation, rather than oi any other sentiment.
