THREE MEN SAY GUI[TY
TO CHARGE OF TARRING
AND FtATHtR.NG WOMAN
Alleged Leaders of Mob in Kan
sas Town Plead To Charge
of Assault.
THREE OTHERS ON TRIAL.
Miss Chamberlain's Escort Had
Already Admitted He Lured
Her To Her Fate.

LINCOLN CENTER, Kas,, Nov. 10.
Much to the surprise OF the prose
cution, f. G. Clark, Watson Scranton
and Jay Fitzwater, alleged to have
been the leaders in the mob which
tarred and feathered Miss Mary
Chamberlain on the night OF Aug. Z
last, today entered pleas of guilty TO
assault. when arraigned in the cir
cult court.
Attorneys for the defense pointed
out that there was no Kansas statute
covering tarring and that they consid-
cred 1t safer to plead guilty TO the
assault than to stand trial. Sentence
was withheld until the end of the
present court term.
Having thus disposed of the cases
OF these men the court proceeded
with the trial of Sheriff. Clark, A. n.
Simms, and John Schmidt, who are
said 10 have helped apply the coat OF
tar and feathers to the pretty little
school teacher A jury was quickly
selected and three women witnesses
called to testify as to Miss Chamber
lains condition on the morning after
the episode.
1t is expected that the three men
who pleaded guilty today will receive
the same punishment as Ed. Ricord,
Miss Chamberlain escort on the
night of the tar party, who entered a
similar plea yesterday after being
convicted some time ago.

dent OF the Detroit Federation OF Wo-

Thursday morning.
They say that the mother OF the
children was mentally incompetent,
said Mrs. Caron TO The Times. but
it may be that she is not so bad that
she couldn't care for her children.
And III she is mentally incompetent.
her husband should be made TO suf-
fer He is responsible for the child
being brought into the world. AS a
matter OF fact, he now owes more TO
that woman that he does TO the chill
dren
ut is a cruel thing TO take child
away from its mother; the mother in
stinct is strong even in animals, ana
IL is even stronger in the human be-
ing Therefore, no child should be
separated from It's mother unless
there Is the very best reason for IT,
THE case OF Mrs. Splitter Is par
ticuIarly pathetic one; In fact. II was
so pitiful that couldn't finish read

Mrs. Zahn. with much emphasis, TO

for the taking of the baby and elder
child from the mother. And the men

a word OF protest. They must have
been fine samples. Talk about sacred
motherhood; don't believe those
