''It was insane jealousy. He thought of nothing else lately. I was on the level with him and pleaded | with him time and again that my ac- ton with him were above reproach. He said I was going around with other men while he was at work and kept following me.
 ''To assure him that I was en- gagged during his business hours I l even went to work in the cartridge factory.
 Look at those hands," she said, | showing powder stained fingers and
 nails worn to the quick which stood | out in black contrast to the snow white cover1et. Look, at those hands. I worked in that factory to

 place him under arrest. And this is | justice that should be shot and he l kill himself, with the police in full | knowledge of the situation in ad- vance, and refusing to act.
