Sentenced for Ten Years.

Mrs. Lula Prince Kennedy, whose
trial in Kansas City on tho charge of
numbering her husband, Phillip II.
Kennedy, was concluded last week,
was found guilty of murder in the
second degree and sontonced to ton years
in tho pcnitcntiary. Tho verdict, al
though apparently light, was somewhat
of surprise to Mrs. Konnedy's friends,
although tho killing appeared deliberate
and cruel. The case was ono of romarka-
bio interest and attracted wido attention.
Mrs. Kennedy is a littlo woman only
nineteen years old and an attractive
blonde. The marriage occurred last
December and it was said ut the time
that Kennedy was forced into tho core
mony, and positively refused to live
with his wife or contribute to her sup
port.
On January 4th Kennedy fled pcti-
ton in tho circuit court, asking that the
marriage bo set aside, alleging that hu
had been cocrccd in going though tho
ceremony. Six days later his wife called
to sec him ut his ofllco. IIo came out
into tho hall and tho two walked away
from the door.
Mrs. Kennedy stopped in tho hall and
put the question:
are You gong to live with mo rs q
husband should?"
81 am not" was the answer.
Scarcely had tho words passed his lips
when Mrs. Kennedy drew a revolver from
tho folds of her dress and firod six shots
into the body of her husband The
reports camo so quick i'm succession that
it was hard to distinguish between them.
Any ono Of the bullets would have caused
death. Kennedy was dead before his
body reached the floor.
The selfmade widow looked con
temptuously Mt the PROSTATE form. She
then walked mp to it and kicked the face
several times. When she had finished
this part Of her work sho said:
you will never betray another girl."
Then she coolly surrendered herself
1t is said that Kenncdy's dying words
were, 1T wasn't her gun" The conncc-
ton of hcr brothers, if any, with tho
case will bo brought out in tho forth
coming trial

CHAIRMAN Jones NOT aespoNslpLr.
Does Not Think a Democrat will Object to the
Oath Required by Executive Committee.

Columbia, Juno 20.-A good deal has
recently been said about the State Demo-
cratic Executive Committee ruling Sena-
Tor McLaurin out Of the primary, and In
the current weeks issue of Abbeyille
Press and Banner inquiry is made OF
Col. Willie Jones whether he has any
thing to do with such an effort and Gen.
suring him II he has, and criticising such
action.
Col. Wilio Jones this morning said: An
editorial in tho Press and Banner seems
to demand that make some reply in
justification of the State Democratic
Executive Committee and myself.
The State Democratic Executive Com
mittee is composed of forty.one mon,
including Senator Tillman, and is one of
tho fairest and squarest bodies Of mon /
have ever had the pleasure of being con.
nectod with. I do not believe there is a
man OH tho committee who would be
unfair to any Democrat in the State in
any manner, and each one of thom will
do the utmost to do absolute Justice to
every Democrat. l have been associated
with these gentlemen for years, first as
q member of tho committee, and now as
chairman of the committee, and tho com
mittee has never done n single thing that
had tho slightest tinge of injustice. j
know of no reason now why the com
mittee should be called together until
next May, when the committee will meet
to call the State Convention.
Personally l have frequently said
was absolutely opposed to ruling Sena
tor McLaurin out of the Democratic
party and primary, and that being m,
position do not SEQ how could bo il
any way hold responsible for any effort OF
suggestion to rule Senator McLaurin out
of tho primary. do not, however
speak for tho committee, but, paron
thetically, may remark, without an,
breach of confidence, that Senator Till.
man also is now opposed to ruling Soma
tor McIaurin out of tho primary, as he
as wcll as l think tho people can at ali
times be trusted and can take caro- OF
themselves and their interests.
AS to the oath to be prescribed fol
Democratic candidates, that is q matte,
for tho convention itself, but if they dc
not prescribe form then it will bo the
duty uf the next committee to prescribe
tho form of tho oath. l am satisfied
that no Democrat will object to sub
scribe to an oath prepared by tho con
vention or Executive Committee of his
own party.

cast no one is more anxious thar
himself to have them cancelled
