WOMAN BURNED TO CRISP.

pittsburg, Pa, Jan. 29.-Albert
Houck found the body of his wife
living on a table in her room, burn
Cd to crisp when he returned home
from his work Sunday. The police
department and coroner are making
a rigid investigation of the death,
but 50 TAR have failed to reach def
mite conclusion. Their first theory
al accidental death was abandoned
when il was discovered that moth
inz else in the room was burned,
not even the table on which the
Nomau was found. When the wom-
ans husband arrived home all the
doors we're locked. all lights in the
house out and he was compelled TO
climb through a cellar window.
Whether the woman met with foul
play the police are reluctant TO say,
but considerable mystery surrounds

An UNUSUAL, rfstN t.N III
Judges ~ Court ~ Criminal NtS-'at-
Petition the t.ntevunt.

Dallas Jan 20 IL was learned
yesterday that y letter has been
written to Governor r VI Campbell
by Judges Henderson and Davidson

hanged next FRIDAY. 50 confinement
In the penltentiary for ihe remain
der Of his life This action on the
part of these two members ~ ID.
court Is said 10 be an unusual pro-
cetinre in fact. this Is said to be the
second time on record that members
of this court have written asking a
chief executive of this state to take
such action
An effort was made TO secur" 4
copy OF the letter and when Judge
Henderson was seen and asked about
IL he said that he had no objection
personally 10 the letter being pub
lished. but suggested that Judge
Davidson who is out of the city,
should be consulted in regard TO
this matter
The letter went on 10 state that
such an action OF the members OF
the court had never been taken ex-
cept on one other occasion and add
ed that petition would be presented
to the governor asking for commu-
tation of sentence, and suggesting
to the chief executive thar he take
time to fully consider the statement
of facts that would be presented to
him.
The reason given for such action
of these two members of the court
is that there was such a narrow mar
gin as to whether the evidence ad-
duced at the trial of the case had
shown that sufficient time had
elapsed TO give the negro time TO
cool off from the alleged abuse
heaped upon him by the man whom
he killed.
The killing for which Manning Is
under sentence of death occurred IN
| October, 1904. when Manning walk
ed up behind Arden Riddle, the bar
! tender i'll an East Dallas saloon ant
shot him through the head.
| Many residents Of Dallas famil

have refused to sign the petition
for communication of sentence.

THE HOME ASSURED
JACOBS HEARS
 FROM LODGES.
Two Hundred anc Thirty-Three Mas onic Organizations Favor Estab- lishment of Institution While
 only Twenty-Three Oppose.

The vote for the Widow and orph- ans Home amendment at noon Friday June 21, according to Grand Master Jacobs, of the Grand Lodge of Ala bama Masons was 233 lodges in fav- or. 29 against.
 This falls slightly under the 90 per cent. ratio that the ballot has been maintaining to date.
 This ratio Is based upon the number of subordinate lodges.
 It Is believed that less than 1000 Ma sons out of the totM 10000 in the grand Jurisdiction will have voted against 1t.
 Grand Secretary George Beauchamp last week gained the credit to himself of changing a lodge that had already voted against the amendment. The lodge made a mistake on the question at voting on the wrong communication Upon getting the adverse return MT. Beauchamp called the lodges atten- ton to the mistake and visited the brethren the night the vote could leg ally come up.
 After listening to the eloquent appeal Of MT. Beauchamp the brethren unanimously reversed their former vote. It is just such effective work as this that has made the home movement such a great success.
 The campaign closed the past week as Saturday June 22. closed the last bal lot, and the home is an assured fact much to the qualification of the Mason ic fraternity of all the state.
