GLASGOW, April 5.-A terrible story
of a wifes vengeance was told before
Lord Kyllachy in the Glasgow high
court yesterday.
Christina Gordon was sentenced to five
years Imprisonment for binding Agnes
Drummond for life by throwing vitriol in
her face.
1t was stated that Gordon's husband,
a Jew, had run away with the Drum
mond woman, and the outraged wife
decided to be revenged upon her.
The accused woman made r painful
scene In the dock, calling piteously to
her mother and appealing for mercy.
Her counsel eloquently urged that she
had been goaded on by the cor.duct of
her husband and the Drummord woman,
but his lordship in passing sentence.
pointed out that under the statute the
crime was punishable by death.

DANNILLE. Va, April Peculiar cir
cumstanceS surrounding the death last
night of the child of d. NJ. Butcher an
emplOye of the Dan River Power and

issuance of Il warrant for the arrest of c.
II. Painter, who is said to have been in

marriage. Painter has fled. and his pres

Painter. according to the story, attempted

man. offering them fruit. The elder child,
however. refused to partake of the gift
and the sickness which resulted in the
death of the younger developed shortly
after the treat had been offered and re-
ceived.
These circumstances, it is alleged, were
not related to the mother until after the
death of the younger child. She immedi-
ately notified her husband of the occur
renee with the result that d warrant for the
arrest of Painter was issued. The Butchers
live in settlement of mill people several
miles from the city and the facts are hard
to obtain. The warrant was issued by
county official. A search is being made
for the missing man. No examination of
the body of the child has been made.
