WIFE SLAYER GETS LIFE.

The case of the State against EN-
met Morgan, which was tried this
week in st. Paul came to an unexpect.
ed end Thursday morning when the
defendant suddenly changed his plea
to guilty Of murder in the second de-
gree, the Judge and the County At
torney agreeing to the change.
Apparently Morgan's Attorneys
were not expecting the change as At
torney Francis was prepared for the
argument to the jury. Morgan had
declined to take the stand and tell his
story and finally arrangements for
the plea in the second degree were
made, and the Court passed sentence
Of life Imprisonment.
