PRETTY WIDOW
To Be TRIED FOR
KILLING SPOUSE
Fate Of Mrs. Stroud Rests on
Testimony of Her Companion
at Time of Tragedy.

SHREVEPORT, June 2I.-Mrs.
Belle Stroud, "a years old and pre-
possessing, will face trial here June
rs for the murder Of her husband.
who was killed April 1s in the pub
lie road near Vivian when he at
tempted to chastise her for riding
with Edward Beeler, a friend Of the
family.
by Mrs. tSroud.
The killing was one of the most
sensational that ever occurred in this
part Of the South and was followed
by an attempt to lynch Mrs. Stroud
and Beeler. officers, by quick action,
got the pair away from Shreveport
and the woman has since been IN
prison here because of her inability
to furnish a $4,000 bond.
Sentiment Shifts to Woman.
Recently there has been a change
Of sentiment in regard to the tragedy
and reports here are to the effect
that even those who were bitter to-
ward the woman now hope she will
be acquitted
Mrs. Stroud Is an expert horse
woman and frequently drove a hand
some horse which her husband had
given her on the second anniversary
of their marriage on the day of
the killing she and Beeler were can
tering along the South Road near
Vivian when Stroud met them. He
shouted curses, according to the
wife, and, dismOunting, attempted to
drag her from her horse. She re-
sisted and, 1t is alleged, he made q
movement as If to draw a weapon,
when she took a pearl-handled re-
volver-also a gift of her husband
from her bosom and shot him in the
side. The second shot struck Beeler
in the leg. This Infatuated the wom-
an and, leaping from her horse, she
closed in on the already wounded
husband and shot out his brains.
Escapes From Hospital.
Beeler was taken to a hospital
here, where II was deemed necessary
to amputate his wounded leg. Re-
Gently he escaped from the institu-
ton, 1t being intimated that either
friends Of one side or the other had
induced him to leave. He was cap
tured at a railway station and will
be kept in the jail here until he gives
his testimony, which the defense ex-
poets will acquit the woman, but
which on the other hand, the State
hopes will bring conviction.
At first Beeler said he loved Mrs.
Stroud and he limited that should she
be acquitted there would be a quiet
little wedding. But of late he has
experienced a change Of heart.
II lost a leg-that's enough for
me-" is all the statement he would
make when visited in his cell.
Judge John R. Land will preside
at the trial and District Attorney w.
A. Mabry will be the prosecutor.
Former District Attorney James NJ.
Foster will defend the woman.
And l will not get cent he
said. 1.-THE woman is deserving Of
sympathy and l am sure she will be
acquitted"

Besides these proposed additions to
the civil laws, there will be various
changes in the criminal statutes pro-
posed. notably a bill to provide TO
misdemeanor convicts, in certain cir
cumstances, a method Of paying
themselves out Of prison, and a bill
looking to the establishment Of a
central place OF execution for crimi-
nails. with electrocution instead Of
hanging as the means OF inflicting
the death penalty.
II is a noteworthy circumstance
that the new Legislature is composed
almost entirely OF new men.
The percentage Of old membership

age, but not many members of the
last House will be seen in the new.
Several well-known members Of for
mer Houses from four to ten years
back have been sent to the new
House, but practically every one Of
the leaders OF the last House will be
missing.
From the House there have disap-
peared Hooper Alexander, Of De-

Decatur, and Carl Vinson, of Bald

the Governorship.
The quality Of the new membership

II is not overstating the matter to
say that the State of Georgia is

PIANISTS At TER
RETURN MATCH
WITH "PLAYER"
Question of Ragtime Champion.
ship of Atlanta Threatens to
0vershadOw All Else.

The question of Atlanta's ragtime
championship now threatens to be-
come as famous as the pump question
and the crematory discussion.
Although Frank Hammond, execu-
tive secretary to Mayor Woodward,
awarded the decision in the contest
to the Weatherholt player-piano,
there are many advocates of the
pianists not present at the contest
who still insist that the player is not
the equal of an expert with nimble
fingers
Decision Was Close,
Mr. Hammond admitted the de-
cision was close but he believed, aft
er studying the merits of the con-
testants closely, that the Weatherholt
player piano should have the de-
cision in Fridays contest. And this
was the opinion of majority of those
present.
Friends of Marsh Adair, we'll
known young Albanian, want another
contest and want him in as one Of
the contestants. They say he can
outplay any player piano ever built
In a ragtime contest. Others, too,
who were unable to attend the con-
test Friday afternoon, want another
syncopatic bout held.
Another Contest Planned.
For this reason T. E. Weatherholt,
president of the Weatherholt Piano
Company, has agreed to attempt an
other solution of the problem.
So all lovers of ragtime will have
another opportunity Tuesday after
noon of hearing the player piano and
expert pianists. The contest will be
staged again in Weatherholt Hall. 70
North Broad Street, and the first
contestant will begin playing at
o'clock. Everybody is invited. It's

Unquestionably, however, the one
big problem about which the entire
work Of the new Legislature viii re-
yolve win be the matter Of tax re-
form
The State must have more revenue
with which to pay its absolutely nee
essary bills, even if no single appro-
priaton is enlarged, and the tax
rate. constitutionally restricted to
five mills, cannot be raised.
Various forms Of special taxation
will be p-optsed-as the inheritance
tax, for instanCe-but the paramount
puzzle to solve win be how TO get
the assessments up eQuitably and
fairly. 50 that taxation may be even
ly and justly distributed in the fu-
ture, and every legitimate subject "

SOME FACTORS AFFECTING
THE KEEPING QUALITY OF
BUTTER

The keeping quality of butter is of
considerable Importance as a factor
in determining the demand for that
product on the market.
Some butter makers would main
tain that because their butter is placed
in the market in a fresh condition
there is no need of taking steps to inn
prove the keeping quality. Most but
ter, even though it is sold to the con-
sumner fresh, is in a majority Of cases
kept by the consumer where the tenn
perature is quite high. If the butter
can withstand this condition without
taking .disagreeable flavor the con-
sumner will demand the same brand OF
bitter the next time. On the other
hand, II the butter assumes a strong
flavor in a few days the housewife is
dissatisfied. and will try another
brand of butter thereafter.
The age and sourness of the cream
previous to churning has decided in
fluence upon the keeping quality Of
butter. This is especially true when
the cream is pasteurixed. An excel
lent proof of that statement is found
in the result recently obtained in the
storage oi paStCuIlZcu sweet SICaui
butter for the United States Navy, as
compared with that made from sour
cream. After six or more months OF
storage, the pasteurized sweet cream
butter was found to be practically as
good as when placed in storage, while
sour cream butter held under The
same conditions was found to have de-
Perforated in quality to much great
err extent. Similar results have beer
obtained in experimental work con
Quoted by this experimental station
However. in the case of raw cream
butter. in many instances, the results
have been best where the cream wa
allowed to sour before churning.
Another factur which bears an i'm
portant relationship to the keeping
quality of the butter is the tempera
ture at which the butter is kept. An.
kind of butter will detriorate to
considerable extent if held at higl
temperature. Many times the butte
maker is blamed for making poor but

TO BRING FINE DAIRY STOCK
INTO THE GEM STATE

For the purpose of importing into
the state of Idaho some of the best
dairy stock possible Professor F. v.
Ellington, of the dairy department,
and Mr.. Geo. B. Game, field dairyman
for Lincoln county, will go east short
ly to purchase dairy cows. They will
purchase stock in Wisconsin and
probably other eastern states teiprob-
probably other middle eastern states.
There has been such a demand on the
part of the farmers and dairymen of
the state for better grade of cows
the purpose of selecting and buying
the best dairy cows available.
Experiments along this were tried
last year, conducted by the university
and others interested in improving
the dairy herds of the state. In all, IA
carloads of pure bred and high grade
cattle were shipped into Idaho, and
disposed of to farmers. Ten carloads
of these went into south Idaho, while
the other carloads were sold at auc-
ton in Moscow.
Professor Ellington and Mr.. Game
will leave for the east about May or
6. This year, only high grade dairy
cattle will be bought, unless there
happens to be some special orders for
pure bred stock. These gentlemen
will buy only enough cattle to fill or
ders actually placed before they leave

consumer in keeping it in place
where it will become soft and develop
a strong flavor. Then also butter is
frequently kept in place where it will
take up the bad flavors from its sur
roundings. This is especially true
where the butter is kept in an ice box
with strong smelling vegetables.
The interpretations of considerable
quantities of buttermilkin the butter
tends to lessen its keeping quality.
Over churning is usually responsible
for high per cent of buttermilk in
butter. The churn should be stopped
when the butter is in the form OF
granules a little large than a wheat
kernel.
If the buttermilk is drawn off at
that stage and this volume in the
churn is replaced with water of the
same temperature as that of the but
termilg, the butter can be successful
ly washed by few revolutions OF the
churn. Butter that is we'll washed in
this way does not become strong so
quickly as does butter from which the
buttermilk has not been sufficiently
removed.
While there are many other factors
which might influence the keeping
quality of butter, the above mentioned
ones are among the most important.

BETTER BANKING SYSTEM

No Plan for Agricultural Credit Can
Be Successful Without Revision
of Our Monetary System.

Mr. Ralph Van Vechten, vice presl-

cussing recently the farm loan ques-

strongly finds favor with us, and

farmers who ought to be employing
their capital and energy on places OF
reasonable size to increase their pro-
ductiveness. But what | wish to make
clear is, when farmer has his land

cash to spare, he is more likely to in
vest his surplus in more real estate
than in loan societies. In this matter
