 BRUTAL SHAVING
Two, Jealous Of Friends Clothes,
 Kill Her

Leningrad, Russia. June 16.- Envy of a girl companion. because she was able to wear expensive clothes while they, owing to the distress in Russia were compelled to wear the cheapest of garments, caused Mary Poutzyina, aged sixteen. and Nadya Feodoroya, aged seventeen, to murder Mary Goustshenkove, eighteen years old, the daughter Of post office off cial.
 The Poutzyliina and Fcodoroya girls lured Mile. Goutshenkove to their home on the preteXt that they desired to take her to d theater. They threw q moose over her head and strangled her, and then stripped her of her clothing and jewelry. Finding their victim still showed signs of life. one of the girls seized penknife and slashed the unfortunate girl about the body In spite of the terrible wounds she had received, Mile. Goustshenkove still struggled and the other girl thereupon secured an axe and killed her. The two girls hid the decapita- ted body in q neighbOring street, where it was found by the police.
 The two young murdercIs w'ac iur. mediately placed on trial uni sen- fenced to eight years Imprisonment Owing to their youth. however, the judge commuted the sentences to five years each.
