New York. Sept. As she stood
screaming for help in the open bed
room window of her home, Mrs. Ma
tin j. Smith of Mineola was shot to
death by her husband today in full
view Of hundreds of horrified church
goers, When, FIVE minutes later, n
mob of enraged neighbors broke into
the house to lynch the murderer he
cheated their vengeance by sending
two bullets into his own lungs and
fell back dying across the bed as
they rushed in upon him.
Mrs. Smith herself and many near
by residents had been expecting the
tragedy for a month. So convinced
were they all that Smith meditated a
crime that some of them had made
secret. plans to punish him with their
own hands the moment the fatal shot
should be fired.
Smith was a contractor. formerly
employed upon the Clarence Mackey
estate. His wife. young and beau
tiful woman. complained that he gave
her too little money to provide for the
family. He charged her with extray-
agance and took to drink.
That was a month ago, and the
quarrels continued until five 81
