with brightly illumined windows begin

With an impatient frown Wessex de-
liberately turned his back on the gor-
geous pile; 1t represented boredom to him,
politics and dullness. and he loved gayety,
sunshine and laughter, these merrymakers
here, the pretty country wenches with
their bare arms and neat ankles showing
beneath their brightly colored robes

OKLAHOMA
MURDER TRIAL
IN PROGRESS

Oklahoma City. Okla, Feb. Cd
What is likely to be one of the most
sensational murder trials In the
history OF the new state is set for
today In the criminal division of the
district court. Mrs. Lila Meadows
and her alleged paramour, Rudolph
Tegeler, are charged with the kill
Ing OF James X. Meadows, the wom-
ans husband. Meadows disappeared
from his home I'm this city on the
night Of June 4, 1907.
Tegeler and Mrs. Meadows were
suspected because they were known
to have been together a great deal.
No arreNt was made untcI letters ex-
planning the crime supposed to have
been missent, were received by
Chief Of Police POST, and afterward
known to have been written by Teg-
eler, who In turn admitted that he
had written them for another per
son, were produced Tegeler was ar
rested and Mrs. Meadows was taken
into custody shortly afterward II Is
expected the trial will consume two
or three weeks II is believed the
defense will try to prove that Meth.
er Tegeler nor Mrs. Meadows. but
another person, killed Meadows.
