before putting in the envelope to save
time when wanted again in a hurry.

be a separate receptacle for all-over
lace. Heavy yellow business envel-

ON TRIAL FOR MURDER.

Newark, n. J.. Jan. 6.-The case of
Mrs. Josephine Amore, the Italian wo-
man charged with the murder of Mich
aeI MarteIlo, was called for trial in
the criminal court today. The alleged
murder occurred early in August last
and attracted much attention at the
time. MarteIlo a boss painter and
married, was shot down in the Amore
home in Drift street, death ensuing
in a few minutes. At first Mrs. Amores
husband, who has since disappeared,
was suspected by the police of the MUIR
der, but while he was being questioned
by the police the wife appeared and
confessed that It was she who had
committed the deed. According TO the
woman's confession she ahd long been
annoyed by the attentions Marteno
forced upon her. Finally. goaded to
desperation and fearful for her own
life, she decided to wreak swift venge-
ance on the man. who. she alleges, had
tried tc force her to forsake honor and
family to fee with him.
