TRIAL FOR
MURDER
Mrs. Harry Sampson Is
Before Court on Charge
Of Killing Nephew
Of Admiral
CASE IS MYSTERIOUS:
COURT ROOM PACKED

(By United Press Leased Wire. }
LYONS, N. Y, April s.
Charged with the murder of
her husband, Harry Sampson,
nephew of the late Rear Ad-
miral Sampson, Mrs. Georgia
Sampson was today placed on
trial before Justice Rich of
Auburn. The case, which
has attracted the attention of
the whole country, has
brought great crowd of peo-
pie here, and when the trial
started today the court room
was packed.
Harry Sampson died on Novem-
ber 1, of last year, a rifle bullet
having pierced his heart in the
farm house of his wife's father
and mother, Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Allyn, at Palmyra. Husband and
wife had quarreled all night over
note received by Mrs. Sampson,
inviting her and a girl friend to
spend the day with an old friend
at Niagara Falls. His mother-in-
law sympathizing with him, said
that 1t was q note no married
woman should receive. The faith
er-in-law was non-commital but
sought to bring about peace.
Ready to Die.
II won't live with this girl any
longer. I'll die first" shouted
the enraged husband to his father
in-law as he stood by the sink in
the kitchen down stairs. Allyn
thereupon ordered his daughter
upstairs and asked Harry to do
nothing until he had returned
from the creamery.
"We'll talk it over then," he
added.
Georgia started up stairs obed-
iently, and 1t was only a few mo-
ments afterwards when Mrs.
Allyn, who was on the other side
OF the house, heard an agonized
cry and on running to the front
room, met her son-in-law stagger-
ing toward her with his hands
folded across his breast. With
out saying a word, he fell dead
at her feet.
May Save Her.
A moment later, Georgia burst
into the room, seized her dead
husband, held his head in her lap
and cried as II her heart would
break. Her brother, Frank, de-
clares that he heard her running
down stairs moment after the
shooting. His testimony may
save her.
The shooting took place in the
kitchen pantry which was found
full of smoke. The % caliber
rifle was found leaning in cor
ner near the stairway, up which
Georgia had gone and which
Harry had passed on his way to
the spot where he fell dead.
The hammer was cooked, and
the ejector had half removed the
empty cartridge. The absence of
powder marks on the dead man'e
shirt has strengthened the belief
of the prosecution that the girl
fired the fatal shot.
When Mrs. Sampson made her
appearance in the court room this
morning, accompanied by her at
torneys and relatives, she was
given something of an ovation.
The defendant was pale but ap-
peared cool and confident. The
mornings proceedings were taken
up In the questioning Of tales
men.

In previous issue made mention of books and the

suit of purposed trick played upon the reading public
by publishing houses.
The Blade has in mind the Forthcoming book of
DIR. A. Hausman, Mans Origin and Destiny. We have
but sixytwo pages of the manuscript yet be published

LEGATION in the Blade columns will be completed, and in
three weeks from that time the book will be ready

this is done two purposes will have been fulfilled two
billions gatifed Most important of these to ourselves
has been the realization of purpose to furnish sub
scrbers with interesting and instructive reading matter,
and the next important the author is the publication
of his work in book FORM consummaton previously de-
MED him through lack of financial MEANS and the fear of
publishers lest they offend the popular orthodox sent
ment.
During the past few weeks we have received number
of criticisms upon the sentiments expressed and arguments
offered by Dr. Hausman far these have been pub
shed Some of these criticisms have from ardent
advocates of the single theories of the late Henry
George and others from advocates of the different social

If the keen interest that had attend.
