spectal to the EVENING NEWS:

NEW BRU NSWICK, Nov. Ia
The murder trial of Imra Sczake
who was accused OF killing Michael
Monari at Port Reading. August 12,
proved to be one of the shortest on
record. The case was hegun before
Justice SwayZe yesterday morning
and by 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon
the jury had retired to consider a
verdict. They came in within an
hour finding the prisoner guilty of
manslaughter, and Justice Swayze
sentenced him to ten years in the
state prison with additional time for
costs. Sczake seemed greatly pleased
at the outcome.
Joseph Il. Stricken, attorney for
Sczake, put in plea of self-defense.
Sczake. himself, went on the stand In
his own behalf. He said he was
nineteen years old and had been in
this country eighteen months. On
the night of the shooting, he said,
he was present, with the others. at
the wedding celebration. When they
came away they all stopped at the
place where the shooting occurred.
While there Frank Katio and a
friend went aside and held whisp-
cred conversation He said they
were talking about him. When they
were through Katio came up to him
and slapped him in the face This
frightened him, he said, and he shot
at katio. He did not intend to hit
Monari but the bullet struck both
men, Katio recovered and Monari did
not. He said the men would have
killed him if he had not defended
himself.
Charles Kish was the only other
witness for the defense. His testi-,
mony was brief and then the court
charged the jury.

 FOR WIFE
Another lndididual Who Can't Let Married Women Alone Realizes Too Late That Ii Is Dangerous Business,

A real life drama. culminauina iI. a tragedy having features resembling the celebrated Thaw case reached it's climax Saturday evening in Tdcson, when George Wells shot and killed Charles Bauer, his former friend. Wells wife. over whom the shooting arose stood bCtwec the tw, men when the murderous shot was iirgd.
 The scene of the Killing was tue Park View hotel. Sho-tly after six o'clock, according to the Tucson Citi. zen, Bauer entered the hotel office. where he encountered the We'll wo- man. " nat words were excn aiiau between them is not kuown. but after 2 si3rIl conversation Bsuer is said to lave invited the WOE .n 10 hlsc some. llIns ts drink. ShS accepted, and Bauer stepped from the office into the adjoining barroom with the inten. tion of securing the liquor for her. As he entered the door, Wells, who had followed him into the office from the lobby and who overheard the or der for the drink, drew a revolver and fired shot straight through the heart of his rival.
 Bauer staggered a few steps. cried out, My God, I'm shot" and sank to the barroom flor. His slayer coolly walked outside and remarked to a mixing man named Peck. That -
 - won't buy any more drinks Tor women, at the same time giving up his revolver. Two peace officers arrived on the scene almost immediate ly and placed Wells under arrest, He Was lodged in the county jail.
 The trouble between the two men seemingly originated while Wells and his wife were staying at Bauer's chicken ranch. on North Sixth avenue two blocks beyond the speedway. Some days ago the Wells couple left the place and came into town. Dur. ing the afternoon the woman, whose reputation is not good, is said to have been inquiring for Bauer at various saloons. It is probable that he came to the Park View in response to a | Desage left for him by her.
 Wels and his wife have been resi- dents of the city for several years. He ! Is a man about sixty years of age and was for considerable time employed as a driver for the street car com raGy before the trolley system ws, put in operation. After losing that occupation he was employed as 2 watchman about buildings in course ol construction. He has the reputation of being ill-tempeTed, though inOffen sive, and by many is considered men l tally unbalanced.
 The woman is middle-aged and is reputed to be of absolute character Bauer, the murdered man, Was mar ried and had a family. His wife and i children are said to have left him fOI i some cause several months ago, and are now residing in San Francisco where a brother also resides.

CLINGING GIRL STILL
 FAV0RiTE WITH MEN

The clever, sophisticated girl who is a good sport may be conspicuous these days, but the keen observer will see that the clinging girl, with the big melting eyes. and her quiet way is getting the big piums in the marriage game, says Eleanor Hoyt, Brainerd in the New Broadway magazine. Aunt Laura. who knows the matrimonial jungle like book, has strong convic- tions upon this point. The charming debutante says: 'Ill never be the success mother was, though, I'm not clinging enough. Mother was one of the gentle, soft-yoiced, dreamy-eyed white-muslined and blue-ribboned belles and Aunt Laura insists that they are still the winners, in spite of all the slangy, hoydenish modernism one finds among society women today She says mems tastes haven't changed at all. As it was in the beginning, is and ever shall be; the oak thinks the ivy is the real thing in help-meets- and mans approval is the whole law for the aspiring debutante. Remem- Der, my dear, am giving you the gos- pei according to Aunt Laura, not my own humble ideas. I am a mere sponge, nowadays, busily soaking up world wisdom. It's all very amusing, but if one believed lt-well, when I believe it, shall be more like Aunt Laura and less like mother. I hope I'll land on solid ground somewhere between the two.
 Aunt Laura's system worked beau tifully with her two daughters They were hopelessly unattractive, is seems. but she married one to an English lord and one to a millionaire mine owner-all through consistently stick ing to her theories.
 | "They weren't pretty and they weren't clever. she said when she told about them. .BGt they were nice hammered. sensible girls, and l i'm pressed it upon them from the start i that they must cling. Men want to be appreciated, not stimulated. Remem- Der that, child. With your face you can take more chances than my poor girls could do, always be clever enough to keep the men you meet from suspecting that you are as elev- CT as you are. When you are married and settled you may be as brilliant as you choose. or as nature chooses; i; but it is disastrous for a debufante without dot to get reputation for , being intellectual, or even witty
