LEE SENTENCED
TO BE HANGED s!
Was Tried In Baltimore Thursday
Found Guilty Of Assaultins
Mrs. Barnes and Miss Powell.

George Scott (colored). better
known as William Lee. the assailant OF
Mrs. Lily X. Barnes and Miss Frances
Powell of Somerset county, was con
victed in the Baltimore Criminal Court
Thursday morning after trial lasting
little more than three hours. and was
promptly sentenced to death by Chief
Judge Harlan.
After sentence was passed Lee was
hustled out of the courtroom by the
deputy Jail wardens and taken down Ia
the courthouse lookup. Not until the
barred door changed behind him did he
seem to realize his position. Then he
flung himself down on bench in the
lookup and burst into tears.
| The first witness called was DR. Ecces.
who attended Mrs. Barnes and Miss
Powell. He testified that both had been
victims of criminal violence
Mrs. Barnes was next called. but be-
fore she was sworn the judges left the
bench and took seats in chairs near the
witness bar, and Mrs. Barnes sat in
front Of them with her back turned to
the spectators. She positively identified
Lee as her assailant. and SO did Miss
Powell, who followed her on the stand.
During hsr testimony Mrs. Barnes sew
eral times broke down and wept. but
Miss Powell showed more composure.
Both told the same story of the way
the negro compelled them to go into the
woods with him by drawing a knife ~
threatening to kill the baby they were
wheeling in a baby carriage. He also
threatened them with the knife and
threatened to shoot them. but neither
saw any pistol in his possession.
After the States case was closed.
Mr. Melvin. the negro's counsel, after
consulting with the prisoner, announced
that the defense would otferno evidence
The verdict of guilty. and the death
sentence then followed
Governor Warfeld must fix the date
for the execution of Lee The law pro-
vides that he shall not be hanged with
in less than 20 days after sentence is
pronounced, and also that he must be
executed in the county where the crime
was committed. The Governor will not
delay the execution. He will probably
give Lee just 20 days to live. or per-
haps day or so more if the custom Of
having all hangings occur on Friday is
followed. Then Lee would bee hanged
on July q.
The suggestion that the Governor
have Lee accompanied to Somerset by
guard of picked men from the police
force of Baltimore has been well re-
ceived. That a company of bluecoats
under command of Marshal Farnan
would be of more effective service than
the militia is believed by those familiar
with the situation.
Citizens from Somerset express the
opinion that the law would be allowed
to take its course and that Lee would
be hanged 1t is reported on good
authority that the Sheriff OF Somerset
would not call on Governor Warfield for
protection of the prisoner, believing
that the execution could be managed
better if troops were not ordered to
Somerset.

How to Stop Gossip.

There are two words, simple enough
in themselves, that introduce untold

and harm than any other two words

little words are nothing more than
They say" They have done more
to ruin regulations than any other

say" you may be quite certain you
are not a gossip. But II you find your

your head, you may rest assured you

A NECESSARY EVIL.

that conclusion and quit 1t.
