tant of All, Talks-Sam
Moy's Marriage.

indianapolis, Ind. July 21.-There
was in attendance at the recent Ep-
worth League convention in Indianapo-
lis a young woman who might have
proved a rival in interest of the fa-
nous speakers, had the public been
aware of the facts. Her name is Miss
Marie Hawley. of Toledo, o. With
Miss Grace White, whom she is visit
ing at Linden, Ind, she came to Indi-
annapolis to attend the convention, and
the family with whom they stopped
exerted the utmost care to keep secret
the strange case of this young woman,
who is % years of age, pretty and pc
tite.
Goes to Sleep on Any Occasion.
The peculiar thing about her is that
she is liable TO go to sleep at any time,
at any place, and on any occasion. She
may sleep q short or long time.
While asleep she talks about what she
is dreaming Of, and will give intelli.
gent answers to queries. but every
attempt to quiz her as to personal
affairs. or to change the subject, Is
futile. When asleep her eyes are about
three-quarters closed. She has been
known to 60 to sleep while eating at
the table, while riding in a car, or
talking to her friends
She Walks in Her Sleep.
She has been known TO walk in her
sleep at nights. but has seldom met
with an accident. On some occasions
her manner and remarks indicate a
somnambulistic state, in which she
fails to hear or heed the remarks of
friends. AT other times she can pur-
sue her own plan of action and at the
same time hear the remarks of friends
and answer them. Not long ago she
got out Of bed about midnight and
wandered about in the yard until she
fell over a lawn mower. The shock
from this fall awakened her.
Sleep Follows Extra Exertion.
The family did not know of the in.
sident until she returned to the house
and told them 1t is common oc
currence for her to go to sleep while
cOnversing, or during the progress OF
meal. in which case she will con
tinue eating as if she were wide
awake. The periods of this unnatural
sleep vary from five to ten minutes tC
as many hours. and whether long OF
short, almost always follow undue ply
sical effort or fatigue.

BIG FOUR PASSENGER TRAIN WRECKED.

Evansville, Ind, Oct 2O.-After
many delays the case Of Wilbur s.
Snerwell, who is accused of murders
of the Jack the Ripper" type, was
called for trial today. Sherwell has
been in Jail here for nearly year. He
was arrested November Is last, charg-
ed with choking to death Lena Renner
and Georgia Railey. whose dead bodies
few nights before had been found in
bitches along roads leading into the
city.
At the time of his arrest Sherwell
was member of the city police force.
The accused was unable to give bail
and has been in Jail ever since. The
grand jury that convened shortly after
the bodies of the two women were
found, indicted Sherwell for their muir
der and also the murder of Mrs. Mary
Anne Storck. The body of Mrs. Storck
was found in almost the identical spot
where the body of Mrs. Railey was
found. Apparently she had been chok-
ed to death. In addition to these three
crimes the name of Sherwell was con-
rected with the murder of Fannie But
Ter, but the grand jury did not indict
him for this crime. The body of Mrs.
Butler was found in an alley a year
ago last May. From all appearance she
had been choked to death in the same
manner as had the three other victims.
1t was ascertained that Sherwell had
been talking to the Butler woman on
the night she disappeared.
Since his arrest the prisoner has
steadily refused to talk about his case
beyond asserting his innocence. His
wife has stood by him all through his
trouble, working in a mill to support
herself and her two children. Able
counsel for the defense has been re-
tanned by the mother and sisters of
Sherwell who live at Monroeville,
Ohio. and who are said to be wealthy.
The trial promises to be one of the
most notable in the criminal annals of
the state.
