charged with the. murder of her third
husband, Frank Kupozyk, by poison
| ing.
Called Woman Bluebeard.
Throughout thetrial, Mrs. Klimek.
characterized by the state as woman
blue beard and still facing trial with
a cousin, Mrs. Nellie Koulick. for con-
spiracy to murder her other three
husbands and other relatives, re-
NAMED calm. Even the verdict failed
TO shake the composure of the little
Polish woman.
With a detached air she watched
spectators congratulate the jury and
heard her cousin collapse beside her
with a loud groan. On her way to
cell her only remark was:
1T was warm in there"
Later, in her cell, Mrs. Koulik
questioned Mrs. Klimek in Polish.
With eight words the convicted wom-
an told her fate and then swung on
her heels and walked away. Mrs.
koulik has been ordered to trial Mon
day.
Sorry for Aged Parents.
Mrs. klimek's only visible show of
emotion, and that barely noticeable,
came when she. requested that com
forting words be carried to her aged
father and mother.
Only five women have been con-
yicted of murder in Cook county in
the last 40 years. In recent years IS
have been acquitted of that charge. |
Most OF them were charged with MUIR

Fourteen persons, thirteen of whom |
are dead. have been listed as victims
OF the two women's alleged poison |
conspiracy. The fourteenth. the pres
emit husband of Mrs. Klimek, is in a |
hospital. said by physicians to be re-
covering from effects of poison. He

Governor Blaine of Wisconsin.

last night.
"You decline to make the survey
on the grounds that the work as out

and assistance than is at the com
mand of the department and for this
reason regret TO state it is imprac-
ticable." Governor Blaine said in a
letter to the attorney general.
"You can have no such regret upon
any such grounds. When the troop
ship was on the tide, these men were
heroes. When gassing and bombing
and shell shocking have broken them
mentally and physically. thea to you
they may rot behind prison bars be-
cause it is impracticable for you to

of humanity will command your at
