KILLED HIS WIFE;
MUST PAY PENALTY

The fate OF George Woods Dan
willie negro, was sealed yesterday. when
Governor Stuart reused to Interfere
with the judgment of tho court, which
sentenced Woods to die in the cleo
trio chair Friday morning. for the
murder of his wife. Governor stuart
announced his decision in the case af-
ter the receipt of a. report from DR..
Herbert Mann, the penitentiary ply
stefan, who stated that there was
nothing wrong with the negro's mental
condition, but, on the contrary. he was
of above average intelligence, Wood s
only hone of clemency -hased- on
the claim of his counsel that he was
mentally defective.
The doomed man was serving nine
ty-day sentence on the roads for selling
whiskey, when he escaped and went TO
his home. where he choked his wife to
death Later he returned to the con-
Wet camp and surrendered.
The fact that Woods made no ef
fort TO defend himself nor render any
aid whatever TO his attorneys was
taken as the latter as Indicative of an
unsound mind. In opposition to this
theory however. II was claimed that
his consciousness OF guilt was respon-
sibie for the negre's indifference.
