TRYING To SAVE
DOOMED WOMAN

READING, Pa, Feb. 7.-Letters
from all parts of the country con-
tinue to pour in upon Oliver Lentz, at
torney for Mrs. Kate Edwards. In
each case the writer thinks that 1t
would be an outrage to hang her. A
number of reasons. are given for this
belief, the principal one being that she
is woman, and that the state she was
in at the time the crime was commit
ted was caused, in part at least, by
the conduct of her husband.
Many of the. letters are eloquent, and
| the writer's offer to circulate petitions
to be sent to the board of pardons. 1t
is estimated that at the meeting of
the latter next week petitions signed
by $4,000 people will be presented, ask
ing for mercy for the woman. The press
department of the Woman's Christian
Temperance union has written that 1t
is trying to get concentrated action on
the part of the entire association in
the matter, and that it will use every
effort in it's power to save the con-
demned woman from the fate that
overshadows her.
Attorney Lentz today mailed to the
board of pardons at Harrisburg the
petition to have the sentence of Mrs
Edwards commuted.N He will call on
Governor Pennypacker tomorrow in an
endeavor to get a reprieve, and John H
Rothermel, counsel for Samuel Greas-
er, her negro acomplice, will go to
Harrisburg on similar mission Thurs
day.
In the meantime Mrs. Edwards is
preparing for death, with her prison
born daughter Alma in her cell.

Inspect playa de! Rey Speedway

At meeting of the board of direc-
tors of the Automobile club of South
ern California held last evening to
consider future plans in connection
with the Playa del Rey speedway now
under construction, it was decided to
appoint a committee to go over the
road today and learn whether it has
been irreparably damaged by the recent
floods. Nearly the entire speedway
has been under water for several days
and it is feared that 1t has been seri-
ously damaged. Some of the club
members are of the opinion that 1t
would be wise to abandon the construc-
tion of the road but the general senti-
ment is in favor of continuing the pro-
ject to a successful conclusion. Final
action will be determined by the re-
port of the committee which inspects
the road today.

Sentiments Assassin
By Associated Press.

HELSINGFORS, Finland, Feb. O.
The assassin of Soisalon Soininen,
procurator general of Finland, has been
identified as Earl Lenard Hohenthal,
formerly a student at the Imperial
Alexander university here. Hohenthal,
who lately had lived in Stockholm,
returned to Finland January 13. He
maintains obstinate silence under ex-
animation. Senator Akerman, who
has assumed the duties of procurator
of the senate, is directing the inves-
tigation of the crime.
The assassin was removed today
from the surgical hospital to the Rus
sian military hospital, where he lies
not fully conscious. 1t was at first
thought that his comatose condition
was the result of a drug, but his head
was badly injured while he was being
dragged down stairs after the murder.

Emperor Approves Proposals for soIu-
ton of Labor Troubles
BY Associated Press.
ST PETERSBURG, Feb. 7.--The fol-
lowing proposals for dealing with the
labor problem have been framed by
Finance Minister Kokovsoff and ap-
proved by the emperor. They will be
debated by the committee of minis
ters with view to legislation on the
subject.
The minister advocates the necessi-
ty of allowing workmen to participate
in measures for the improvement of
their lot. He thinks certain organiza
tions ought to be permitted, and sug-
gests that the hospital and sick funds
be jointly administered and supported
also suggests a bureau of representa-
tives of both masters and men to con-
fer for the settlement of disputes as
to wages and on other questions af-
fecting the amelioration of workmen's
conditions.
The minister thinks it is possible
to reduce the working day to ten
hours, with nine hours for night work,
and to fix an eventual date for the
Introduction of an eight hour day.
Manufacturers would be allowed to
carry on work on holidays, but would
be bound to give the men four free
days each month. Special measures
should be adopted to restrict abuses
in the direction of overtime and to
revise the laws concerning strikes and
breaches of contract.
The minister points out that the
existing law regards strikes not as
economic movements, but as breaches
of social order, and considers that the
revision should adopt the western
European point of view, that all strikes
not accompanied by excesses should
be treated solely as economic move
In conclusion the minister empha.
sizes the urgent necessity for improv-
ing the medical assistance available
for workmen. His proposals will be
considered together with the questio,
of state insurance.

DISCRIMINATING LADIES.
Anjey Using Herpfcide ON Account Of
Its Distinctiveness.

The ladies who have used Newbro's
Herpicide speak of 1t in the highest
terms, for its quick effect in cleansing
the scalp of dandruff and also for its ex-
cellence as a general hair-dressing. 1t
makes the scalp feel fresh and it allays
that itching which dandruff will cause.
Newbro's Herpicide effectively cures
dandruff, as it destroys the germ that
causes it. The same germ causes hair to
fall out. and later badness; in killing 1t,
Herpicide stops falling hair and prevents
badness. 1t is also an ideal hair dress
ing, for it lends an ~aristocratic charm to
the hair that is quite distinctive. Sold
