the Myers Residence and the Last
Remembrances of the Nurse.

Wheeling, w. Va, Jan. 19-Today
saw the last of the testimony for the
prosecution in the trial of Mrs. Laura
Farnsworth Schenk, who is charged
with poisoning her husband, John O.
Schenk. The defense opened its side
this afternoon.
j. ]. P. O'Brien, chief counsel for
Mrs. Schenk, said he might call every
C.. rgist and physician in and about
w sing to show whether they had
ever Sold Mrs. Schenk poison of any
kind. Mrs. Schenk appeared in court
as bright as ever.
Theodore Fink was the first wit
ness of the day and was called for
the purpose of locating the schenk
residence on the island. Chauffeur
Lundy Wilson, recalled, testified to
the alleged visit to the residence of
DR.. Myers. He said he was ordered
by Mrs. Schenk to stop the car at a
bend in the road from which point
he could not see the Myers resi-
dence.
Alma Evans, the nurse, testified
that Mrs. Schenk had frequent crying
fits. Miss Evans was asked If Mrs.
Schenk narrated improper stories as
to herself and other men and the wit
ness said that she had.
At the close of the evidence, the
defense moved to dismiss the case on
the grounds that no crime had been
proven against the defendant. Judge
Jordan refused to sustain the motion
for the dismissal and the defense de-
cided to begin taking testimony at
O'CLOCK this afternoon. Prosecutor
Handlan will be the first witness. :.
Women Excluded.
Hundreds of women were sorely
disappointed at the announcement of
Judge Jordan that he deemed it best
for the moral interests of the COM
munity that women should be ex-
cluded from the trial, and that here
after none should be admitted to the
court room. The orders were carried
i, out this afternoon.

impossible to arouse her from her at
tack of melancholy.
Although her husband had a day

at home as result of a
launching at the shipyard, she re-
quested him to leave her alone. She
returned the food which had been
prepared for her breakfast, and asked
that she be not disturbed.
Then when both husband and moth
er had left the room, Mrs. Bobo went
to an adjoining room and took from
the drawer a 38-caliber revolver.
Arm About Child
She returned to her room, and ly-
ing fiat on the he'd. with the sleeping
baby snuggled close to her side and
one arm about him, the woman placed
the revolver to her breast and fired.
At the report the husband rushed
into the room. He summoned Drs.
John Haley and William, F. MacLeman
who hurried the woman to the hos
pital.
Mrs. Bobo was conscious for some
time after the shooting, but she re-
fused to explain why she attempted
to end her life.
II want to die Please go way" she
mOaned. and the grief-stricken hus-
hand and mother were unable to OBJ
tain from her any other word.

MEN IN JAIL
FOR LARCENY
Robbed Campers at Mid
land Are Held for Trial.

Charged with grand larceny in
robbing the campers at Midland
Beach about ten days ago, two young
men, giving their anne as George
Brown, twenty-one years, and
George Grant, seventeen years old,
of Manhattan, are locked up in the
county jail at Richmond in default
Of $1,000 bail each for the aourt of
special sessions.
Brown and Grant were arrested
last riday by Detectives George H.
Cole and William L. Frankenbury,
attached to the seth and 99th pre-
cinct and held for examination be-
fore Magistrate Handy in the sec
ond district court at Stapleton Mon
day.
Magistrate Handy after hearing
the evidence, held the two for trial.
These two are a band of eight that
the police have been e~ndeavoring to
locate for some time, in connection
with the robbery of the tents at the
north end of the beach, where the
robbers have landed in a boat and
relieved the campers of several hun
dred dollars worth of goods. Will
liam Suydam, JT., of the other side
Of the island was one of the heaviest
losers. He was the first to discover
the robbery and notify the police.
The crooks took mostly everything
that could be bundled up quickly,
but seemed to be particularly fond of
blankets. Most of the tents are oc-
cupied by young men who are en-
ployed in the daytime and are only
at their tents in the evening and on
Saturday afternoon and Sunday,
which fact no doubt was the reason
for the daylight pillage.
