HALF BREED FATHER OBJ
JECTS TO SEPARATE SCHOOL

Klamath Falls, Or. oct. 2.-Alleg-
ing discrimination against the half
breed children, William Crawford, a
halfbreed Indian living at Fort Klam-
ath, has started mandamus proceed
ings against the directors of the Fort
klamath school district. Last year
this matter came up and it was decid-
ed to build two school houses in the
district, one for whites and one for
Indians. 1t seems that Crawford,
who has four children of school age.
is not satisfied with this arrangement.
He sets forth that he has long been
a taxpayer and voter in the county
and that he has right to send his
children to any public school.
1t is said the directors of the dis
trict are determined to keep the In
dians in separate school. The case
will come up for hearing before Cir
cult Judge H. l.. Benson.

ASK LIFE FOR
 WOMAN

BOSTON, Mass. March 3O:-A de termined effort is being made to have the death sentence of Mrs. Lena Gus umano. convicted or murdering her husband and sentenced to be electro cuted in the State Prison at Charles town the first Of June, committed 10 life Imprisonment. No attempt is be ing made as yet to secure q commu- tation Of the sentence of Enrico Mas cloh. who was convicted Of the same crime as Mrs. Cusumano and sentenc- ed to be electrocuted on the same date.
 Mrs. Cusumano and Mascioli were convicted of the murder of the wo- mans husband. The crime was com mitted in Hull in September. 1910. A few weeks after the disappearance of Cusumano his body was found on the shore and an autopsy disclosed that he was murdered. The trial took place in the historic town of Ply

mouth. A number Of witnesses test. i1sd, the most important Of whom vas the seyen-yea--old daughter of Mrs. Cusumano who identified the quilt in which Cusumanos body was wrapped. as one that was on her fathers bed Other witnesses were Mrs. Cusumano's sisters. who testi- fed against her.
 Both defendants testified, denying the crime, but the evidence. such as the finding of a blood-stained ax. a hole in the ground near the Cusunano house and a bundle of blood-stained clothing belonging to Mrs Cusumano. was so strong that the jury found the pair guilty after short deliberation.
 It is believed there is little doubt that the efforts to secure @ commuta- tiOn of the woman's sentence will sue ceed. It is the first time in the his tory of Massachusetts that woman was sentenced to die in the electric chair. as it is the first time in the memory of persons of this generation that woman was condemned to death in this state. The cases were the first in Plymouth in twenty-five years that a person has been convict ed of first degree murder.
