 The automobile is here to stay. It is an ordinary. everyday means of transportation and as business or pleasure vehicle it will every day be- come more numerous. If the law is enforced this increase in the number of automobiles need not necessarily be- come a menace to the public-Meriden Record.
 The only grain of comfort in this late spring business, is the fact that fruit trees have not blosomed pre- maturely only to be blasted later, as has been the case some years. It is getting so late now, that once warm weather sets in and trees blossom forth, there need be no fear of a blasting cold spell-Rockville Journ- al.
 It is extremely difficult to please some people on the matter of Sun day observance. They cling to the old puritanical style, and although times are changed they still adhere to lnclr Oio OPAiiAO1o anu are uiiWllllIle to submit to any other ruling The residents of West Haven are not alone in this feeling. People with the same notions find their way into the legis- lature and prevent the passage of any law to bring about the change that tn e majority of the residents of this state evidently feel is desirable. It is going pretty far when they refuse to acquiesce in the decision of a court of law in which tbe only question was whether the public peace was disturb ed We surely have some queer peo- pie in Connecticut.-NewB Britain Her aid.

WAS CONVICTED BY
JURY IN FIRST TRIAL
Defendant, Said to Be N, Heard
Trial While Lying on Col in
Court Room

Bartlesviiie, Okla. Jan. ~ Mt;
Laura NJ. Reuter- was found not guilt.
by jury, OF completely in the murde
of her husband Charles 7. Reuter-.
She sat apparently unmoyed while
the verdict was reaG
She has been III throughout the tria
and heard most OF it lying on cot il
the court room
This was the second trial
The first trial last autumn resulted
in conviction, carrying sentence o'
life Imprisonment Charles Mckenzie
and Bud Bellew, charged With being
accomplices OF Mrs. Reuter- in the
murder Of ber husband. are now sefN =
ing life sentences at McAlester, they
having been convicted last year, At
this trial both men testified against
Mrs Reuter-.
The case was given to the jury Fri
day night. The verdict was returned
at 1890 o'clock this morning.
Mrs. Reuter- collapsed Friday. Her
swoon came during the osing argu-
ment Of her attorney and few persons
in the court room knew of her condl-
ton. Judge Allen ordered the crowd
to pass out quietly and the woman
was carried on a cot to her hotel
Earlier in the day she had shown
marked improvement and displayed
unusual interest in the proceedings.
Attorney Charlton argument the
shortest BY an hour that has been
made was wonderful combination u
logic and pathos.
Gentlemen. the state would have
YOU convict this little woman and SEN
tence her to death or life imDrison-
ment They demand her life and tha,
wouldn't be very hard thing 20
take. There isn't very much lille lef,
in that rrail little form.
IF YOU return a verdict Of guilty,
you might a- well place a dagger IN
the hands OF your foreman and have
him step from that jury box and
plunge it to the hilt in her heart.
Charlton related in an effective
manner the last few hours during the
life of Charlie Reuter-. told Of the
little trip to the grocery store when
Charlie" bought pop and candy for
his wife and babies, the return to the
Reuter- home and the preparation of
the children for bed.
Little Marcela knelt down by her
bed and said her bedtime prayer, and
little Johnny repeated after her.
"Now ! lay me down to sleep
Il pray Thee, Lord my soul to keep
If should die before | wake
| pray Thee. Lord, my soul 10 take.
Charlton then launched into pa
thetic explanation OF the strength of
the mother love.
DO YOU think this little mother
would have allowed her little girl tc
go to bed in the same room with her
husband ii she had known of the COM
ing visit of the nurderous assassin >"
He then related the biblical story
of the angel whom the Lord sent down
from heaven to collect and bring to
him the three most beautiful things
on earth.
THE angel was walking up the
road and there by the roadside he
found full bloomed rose and she
plucked it, \ little further on she
saw little child rlayine and a sweet
smile came over the little child
face. and the angel thought what can
be more beautiful than the innocent
smile of little child She took the
smile and placed it with the rose.
''In lowly hoyel further down the
road the angel found grief-stricken
mother nursing her sick infant. and
