striking sf all phases Of The De
saulIss trial today was 4ths look Of
inSffAblS Soy on the face Of the
woman, who since the trial began has
bsen an Rpathetio onlookSr.
ThsrS was no need to seek TAR
eor the cause Of the change. For two
wonderful hours mother and little
son were toEsthsr last night In the
cha0ry room IN which she has been
oonfinsd since sbs shot and killed
her husband.
Who was the happier would be hard
TO say, By agreement with the FAM
tly Of De Saullas, whom she slew
when he kept her boy from her.
aho was enabled to remain alone
With the lad for two delightful hours
snd cArSss him 20 her hearts con-
tenk
MrA. De saulies- fatigusd from the
tsrrtbls ordeal she had undergone on
her third day In court, had undressed
and was in bed when aroused By
photographers' flashlights lined up for
the arrival Of little Jack.
Little Jack screamed with delight
when the flashes exploded.
TAOught Il Was a Bonb.
They're trying to bomb me-" he
sh-isked. a. he wigglsd In the arms
az the detective They're trying to-
take my pieture-Tnst's what they're
70 do"
Attendants swung open the iron
barred gates anc Jack" once his
FEET struck the door Of the office,
7 made q dash for the staircase lead
ING to the second floor, where his
Iaother is confined.
Mrs. De Seulles, lying on the bed,
thrust her white arms toward the
little fellow. In an instant she had
him gathered to her bosom and
smothered him with kisses. His
chubby arms were around her neck,
snd Amalia ErrAEuriz, her sister, and
her brother, Wilnam, who were In
the room, steppej outside to leave
mother and son alone. Both were
deeply affected by the scene OF the
meeting Of little jack and his mother.
LAttIe Jack Finds Toys.
They Just played together, Jack
and Blanca" said Amalia, in deSerih-
Ing the meeting later to the report
srs. You see, she had been making
Nteys for Jack, and he was just wild
with delight at the sight OF them
Ny brother and I left them alone,
and she and Jack had dinner to-
gether. It was simply wonderful to
see them play together. He didn't
want to eat, he was 50 intent upon
the games his mother had arranged
for him, but he finally did consent
to leave on playing for q while and
eat
HAnd what q wonderful transforma-
ton in my sister. That one visit from
her boy Transformed her into q new
woman straightway she was aroused
from her iethargy. A light OF hope
came into her eyes, and she knew
as well as we all DO, that it is now
only q matter OF time when she will
have little Jack for good and all.
Yes, she always did love to play with
little Jack, and often wonder which
is the more childish, he or she.
"I can't describe those two hours
which meant so much to her. Can
you not imagine how a mother, separ-
sted from her only child by prison
bars. would act. But. oh, she was
so happy with him And newell,
you never saw a more delighted
yoSngster than Jack was when with
hts mother.
There has been talk that the De
Sauiles family have been endsavoring
to wean the boy away from his
mother. That they have told him
she killed his father and iG in prison,
ana other things to poison his little
mind. But II they have, II had no
eject 50 far as observed this after
noon"
The visit OF the boy certainly did
have q remarkable effect on Mrs. De
Saulles. according to Sheriff Phineas
Seaman and his wife, matron of the
