did wonder at this, and asked her the
reason.

NEW EXPLOSIVE LAWS
AFFECT MANY PEOPLE

ATLANTA, Ga, April 16.-The fed
eral explosives law which was passed
to protect the nation in time of war
affects more people than the users of
dynamite and powder, according to
Carlos H. Mason Of this city, U. s.
explosives Inspector for Georgia.
He calls attention to the fact that
the law affects wholesale and retail
druggists, hardware stores, paint
stores, photograph, supply hs6ses,
photographers, painters, manufactur-
ing and analytical chemists, mine own
ers and quarrymen, as we'll as others
who may be engaged in blowing
stumps, blasting bitches, blasting
quarries and mines, blasting con-
struction work, selling fireworks, or
planting trees by dynamite.
He calls particular attention to the
need for everyone engaged in any of
these occupations to familiarize them
selves with the law and secure the
proper license, this not only being
necessary to aid in the general en-
forcement of the law but also to avoid
penalties for its infraction.
The law covers a very wide field,
regulating not only the handling and
sale of explosives, but the handling
and sale the ingredients of explosives.
Among the ingredients embraced in
the law are bichromates, CELEBRATES,
nitrates, nitric acid, perchorates,
rerborates, permanganates, peroxides
and phosphorus. The finished explo-
sives include dynamite, powder and
nitro4glycerine, which are the best
known explosives, and also fireworks,
fiashlight powders, picric acid and all
the higher explosives. Anyone hand
ling or selling any of these should
go to the licenser in his county and

WOMAN sPuRN[l, AGAIN
FACES MURDER CHARGE

LOS ANGELES, April 16.--Marie
Pinson Edwards, magdalen mistress of
a state senator once prominent in
California politics, went to trial here
yesterday for the second time on
charge of his murder here October
8. 1917. She shot and killed State
Senator Henry H. Lyon, she testified
az a former trial, when he married
another and refused to see her only
upon condition that she enter =
Japanese brothel.
At her first trial the jury stood six
to six, and was discharged after many
hours of hopeless deadlock. The trial
was one of the most sensational in
CALIFORNIA; criminal procedure. All
tie lurid depths of the demimonde and
the depths to which Marie Edwards
went to hold Lyons love were barred
by her on the witness stand an ordeaI
that brought about her physical break
down.
For two months she has been at
liberty on bail and resting at a quiet
sanitarium.
The defense, as in the former trial,
will be based on three predicates--
self defense, emotional insanity, and
denial of actual responsibility for
Lyons death. It was attempted to
prove that Lyon died from surgical
operation,
