and stroke his face and a baby voice
would say ''Tum on, papa, cts do ome."
When the time came for the visit to
end and with clanking keys the jailer
opened the heavy barred door. the pris-
oner seemed dazed and sobs shook his
frame as with streaming eyes he was led
back to his cell.

CONVICTED
Jury Finds Mrs. A. N. Starr of Pasa-
dena Guilty of Committing
Assault with Deadly
Weapon

'T only took the revolver along as a
bluff" declared Mrs. A. N. Starr yester-
day in Judge Wilbur's court, where she
was on trial on a charge of assault with
a deadly weapon. her husband being the
prosecuting witness.
The couple were married about sixteen
years ago in Jacksonville Fla, and Mrs.
Starr said her husband had deserted her
two years after the wedding ceremony,
leaving her with a child which, she said,
he had kidnapped and brought to Califor-
mia, whittier she followed. Starr located
in Pasadena where he established him
self as an osteopathic physician. placing
the boy in a military school. Mrs Starr
also located in Pasadena, but at some dis
lance from her husband, and supported
herself by telling fortunes.
Her mother love on November II led her
to call at the school her son was attend
ing and making application to see him.
but the request was refused unless she
carried an order from the boys father.
Fearing this would be refused, Mrs. Starr
returned to her home and secured an
automatic pistol from the room of George
Prefer. Wrapping the weapon in a
newspaper she placed it on her arm and
went to her husbands office. where she
demanded the order which would admit
her to the school.

order Given to See Son

This was given her promptly and with
out the necessity of a display of fire.
arms, and Mrs. Starr was about to take
her departure when a movement in one
of the rooms adjoining her husband s
office aroused her suspicion.
Opening the door, she says she saw a
woman, scantily dressed. lying on a
couch Mrs. Starr said she called the
woman names and told her to get out
but declared she made no move as though
to use the pistol Her husband, she said,
took the weapon from her and put her
out Anna Cornell the woman discovered
by the irate wife in her husbands office,
declared she had gone there for treat
ment.
Mrs. Starr said she did not know
whether the weapon was loaded or not,
and would not have known how to dis
charge it had she wished to do so.
The case was given to the jury about
o'clock and verdict of guilty was re-
turned a half hour later. Sentence was
continued until today
