Wife Accused of Attempted Murder.

Advices from Woodville, Miss, state that
the Wilkinson county grand jury has re-
turned an indictment against Mrs. W. c.
Stewart on the charge of poisoning her hus-
band, the alleged motive of the crime being
she held a $4,000 insurance policy on the
life of her husband. The indictment alleges
that Mrs. Stewart administered morphine to
her husband In large quantities. with the
irtent of killing him. and it was only
through the prompt action of other mem
bers of the Stewart family in sending for
physicians that his life was saved.
