GLUED ON WOMAN
Four Matrons Of East Sandy, Pa.
HumiIiate Her.
Pour MoIasses on Her, Lead Her
Through Mining Camp and Tic
Her in the Woods.

Franklin, Pa.-Four married wo-
men of the village Of East Sandy,
four miles from here, treated q
neighbor to a coat of stove polish,
mo1asses and feathers.
They were arrested, pleaded guilty
and paid fines of $40 each.
The four women are respected
members OF the community They
are Mrs. Verda Lowry, Mrs Bertha
Brinkman, Mrs Nellie Glaze and Mrs.
Hilda Pherson.
Their victim was Mrs. Hattie Low
ry, sister-in-Iaw of Mrs Verda
Lowry their husbands being broth
ers.
The four women called at the
home of Mrs. Lowry and told her
they intended to humiliate her be-
fore the community Two of the
women seized her while the other
two iaubed stove polish on her face
Then molasses was poured over her
head and feathers were applied.
Thus adorned, the woman was
marched from her home to a rail-
road camp, where 200 men are en-
plOyed. There was suspension of
work until the self-appointed vigil
lance committee took their victim to
the outskirts of the town, where they
tied her to tree and left her A
man came along half an hour later
and released the captive.
Mrs. Lowry came to Franklin and
had warrants issued for the women
Sheriff McElhinney went to East
Sandy and arrested all but Mrs. Pier
son, who was not at home.
When the three were arraigned
before Alderman Henderson they
pleaded guilty.
Mrs. Glaze said they had no regrets
for what they had DONE She said
the woman's actions were intoler-
able.
Mrs. Lowry, the victim, said there
was no justification for such treat
ment and that she will continue to
live at East Sandy.
The discipline was not inflicted
without warning, the four women
said 1t was asserted by one of them
that they had told Mrs Lowry il she
did not mend herways they would re-
venge themselves upon her for the
disgrace they said she had brought
on the community. Men who criti-
cised their conduct were the more Sc
we're because one of the four women
was the victims sister-in-law, Mrs
Verda Lowry.
They said the sister at least should
not have mixed in such an affair,
whatever the other women might
have felt called on to do. Most OF
the persons questioned about Mrs.
Hattie Lowry said they had only re-
spect for her and were sorry she had
had such an experience.

Maitre Cruppi, for the countess,
pleaded for a divorce upon the docu-

a complete and pitiful story of the

Maitre Cruppi asked that the
countess be given the custody of her
three children.
The courtroom was crowded
among those present being many
members of the American colony.
The early troubles of the countess
married life were due primarily to
the counts inordinate extravaganza,
the lawyer declared. Even in spite
of their domestic infelieity the count
ess was too good and scrupulous to
begin an action for divorce until she
possessed full proof.

old when she was married in 1895 in
New York City to Count Boni de Cas-

declared, his opponent could not ex-

Washington, D. C.-The Isthmian
Canal Commission desires an appro-

tinue its work on the Panama Canal
during the fiscal year ending June
80, 1908. The estimates calling for
this amount of money were made
public by the commission The
amount appropriated for the canal
work for the fiscal year which will
end June 80, 1907, was $25,456,-
415.OS.
The estimates for the next fiscal
year are surprisingly close to the
appropriations for the current year,
fact explained by the statement at
the commission headquarters that in
the absence of exact knowledge of
what will be required 1t was thought
best to be guided by the experience
gathered before.
