COOpers Given Twenty Years.

The jury in the case of D. B. Cooper
and Robin ] Cooper, at Nashville
Saturday, returned verdict finding the
defendants guilty of murder in the sec
ond degree and fixing their penalty at
twenty years Imprisonment in the
Tennessee penitentiary. Immediately
after the verdict was read the defense
moved to set it a side because of the
verdict of disagreement of Friday,
when Sharp was acquitted. and it was
announced they could not agree as to
the Coopers, and asked the court to de-
clare it mistrial. Judge Hart said
he would listen to arguments on this
motion later. He then fixed the de-
PENDANTS bond at $25, 900 EACH, which
was promptly given, and they were
released from custody.

LENA RIVERS.

While Lena Rivers" as play
must necessarily be in degree q
replication of country life, and son e
of its scenes are laid in the little vil-
lage of Slocumville, Mass. it must not

type of dramatic production known as
the ''b'gosh drama" Lena Rivers
could never be a hayseed play in any
sense of the word. Country scenes are
shown in the comedy and country
types of character are made use Of,
but there its likeness to rural play
ceases. Caroline, Mrs. Graham, Anna
and the others are of the beautiful
Southern society woman type, and
after the first act it is this Southern
atmosphere that prevaisl. 1t will be
seen here at the Paris Grand tomorrow
