Polish Strikers Observe
Good Order, They Say

WARSAW, Feb. 20-Foreign news
papers. especially Austrian and Ger
man journals, have been printing stories
Of violence throughout Poland during
the past week. Including wholesale mill
tary executions In Warsaw. From per-
sonal observation here and at LODI, and
from constant telephone communica-
ton with other centers, these reports
can be declared to have been utterly
untrue.
Not a single shot has been fired In
any strike center since February 9.
Everything here Is normal except the
presence of an extra large number of
troops. The strike continues stubborn
ly, but the strikers are orderly. Wher-
ever the men have resumed work they
have obtained better conditions.
Intelligent Poles regret the publica-
ton of false reports of violence lest ii
hinder the amelioration of their posi-
ton, which they hope will arise in the
present circumstances,

the costume of the charming debut

"Hab't de court composed of yellow

with bouquete Of Brussel, sprouts.
The body and sleeves festooned with

According to the same yeracious
chronicler, Mrs, Snobhins, who cha.
peroned her daughter, wore a cos
ume de court, fashioned of a train
of superb Pekin bandanas, elegantly
trimmed with spangled t!nfoil and
red tape, Bodice and under dress were
of sky.blue yelveteen. trimmed with
tsouffants and knots of belI-pulls. The
head dress was a birds nest with
bird Of paradise over rich brass
knocker on ferrioniere. Our report

travelling, it was decided not to take
her away until evening.
| The prison barber, Abraham Smith
who had been granted a full pardon
after spending two years IN prison on
mistaken charge of bigamy. spent
exactly eighteen minutes in packing
up his few belongings, saying goodbye
all around and getting out.
The crime for which Libbie Cara
brant spent the best part of her life
In pr son was the murder of Ransom
F. Burroughs in Paterson in 1871, by
sprinkling arsenic over dish of rice
pudding which he ate.
Burroughs was forty-eight years Old
His wife had been sent to States
plison for keeping a disorderly house,
and Burroughs installed 19-year-old
Libb'e in her place. Lbbie, however
was deeply in love with a young man
named Van Wrinkle Bogert. Although
her family had cast her off for being
Maynard, she had deep infautuation
for Bogert and encouraged him in his
intention of marrying her
How Crime Was Discovered.
One day Burroughs fell sick and
soon after died. HIS body was found
In the kitchen, the kitchen was locked
and the key was found in Libbie's
pocket. All the household furniture
had been carted away to Boger's
house. and nothing would have been
known of Burroughs death If the
neighbors had not Investigated.
The accepted theory of the case has
always been that Bogert wanted Bur
roughs out of the way and got the girl
20 murder him Lbbie however. had
~ s-icn'g End vas convicted of mur-
der in the Grst degree. Af'er her SEN
tence had been committed to life i'm
urisUnment Bogert was put on trial as
an accersory after the fact and Libble
was brought from prison TO testify
against him. But she was so much in
love with him that she shonldered the
crime and got him of entirely.
Bogerts family strengthened her
purpose of shielding him by promising
to stand by he and help her regain
her freedom. but instead they opposed
her petitions fer clemency as often as
thew appeared before the Court of
Pardons.
At one time petition s gned by
30. )0J pereons was laid before the
rourt. bur IT failed to move the judges.
Several public-spirited women and a
number of women's organizations
have been interested in the case. One
IF the things that initiated against
their success was that when Patrick
II. Lafferty ex-head keeper, was tried
in impeachment proceedings. Libbie
testified that he had been intimate
with her on a number of occasions in
the prison. Her petition was dismissed
without consideration for some years
after this testimony.
Since the founding Of the prison.
back in 1882. only FIVE life prisoners
have been released. and Libbie Cara
brant Is the only woman.
