Convicted Husband killer
Y Will Be Third Woman
to Die in N. Y.

E1IzABETHTOWN, n. Y, Nov.
@.-P)-Mrs. Fannie Soper, thrice
wed and a widow at 40, has been
convicted Of the murder Of her hus-
band, Henry Soper, deputy sheriff
of Boquet, and faces electrocution.
A jury, largely Of farmers, yesterday
returned a verdict Of murder, first de-
gree, after having listened for 10 days
20 trial which has attracted wide
attention in the Adirondack. Sen
tence to death in the electric chair is
mandatory.
TWO OTHERS DIE.
II Mrs. Soper is put to death, she
will be the third Of her sex from
from the state has exacted the extreme
penaly. Martha Place, who was con-
yicted in New York County, was exc
cuted in Sing Sing prison on March
20. 1890, and Mary Farmer. convicted
in Jefferson County. was put to death
in Auburn prison on March 20, 1909.
Henry Soper was shot twice in the
head as he slept in the kitchen of
his Boquet farm house. Mrs. Sopcr
maintained that stranger came to
the door. asked admittance and was
allowed to enter the room in which
her husband rested. Then, the widow
maintained, she heard two shots, found
her husband dead. and saw the stran-
ger disappearing in an automobile.
QUICK VERDICT.
The prosecution, basing its case
largely on circumstantial evidence,
contended that Mrs. Sopcr did the
shooting, attempting to prove through
testimony of an expert that the two
bullets were fired from Soper's own
revolver which the widow attempted
to keep from Investigators.
Among the character witnesses who
appeared for Mrs. Soper was her only
daughter. Mrs. William Ellsbury of
Elizabethtown. Mrs. Ellsbury told of
the happy homelife" of Soper and his
wife. Soper had two sons by for
mer marriage and TIE Boquet property
was willed to them.
The jury delibcrated one hour and
4J minutes.

own defense.

High Court Gets Special
Statute Passed at Last
Session
INVOLVES BACK TAXES
Special Law Provides Interest
Charge Adjustment on
Payments
INVOLVES BACK TAXES

The supreme court today was ask
ed to determine the constitutionaiity
Of the special tax redemption law
passed at the last session OF the
legislature. Under the statute, which
expires by limitation November l OF
this year. property owners were per-
mitted to redeem property where
taxes had been bid in by the county
by paying the taxes and six per cent
interest.
The present case arose in Emmons
county. Arthur B. Atkins, as admin
istrator of the estate of Mary Cole.
brought suit against the county COM
missioners, auditor and treasurer of
Emmons county to settle tax claim
under the new law and the lower
court held the law unconstitutional.
Because numerous other cases may
hinge on the decision in the Emmons
county case the court has advanced
the hearing in the matter to Scptem-
Der 30.
The main question at issue in the
case is that of the rate of interest
to be paid on delinquent taxes. BY
the law passed at the last Legislative
session the rate was fixed at six per
cent. Under the old general law
governing redemption Of property
from tax claims the rate Of interest
paid often was much larger. The
purpose Of the 1925 law was to give
property owners an opportunity to
settle back tax claims without hav-
ing to pay excessive rates of inter
est. In cases where the taxes were
brought by individual investors the
new law would not apply.

the villages and corn fields of Amer
ica for the cities have made mis-
take.
In fact. he believes the chances
for success for an ambitious young
man in the small towns are greater
than those in the cities.
Opportunities for young people
are just as good in the country and
small towns as in the Cities" he says.
"My opinion is that the chances
of success are greater in the viii
lagos.
"Compettion is less keen because
50 many youths have left their homes
in the country for struggling ex-
istence in the big cities.
"If these young people would look
just as hard for opportunities in
their home towns and then work just
as hard making good after the op-
portunities are found, there would
be no cause for worry about the de-
population of the rural districts"
Carver also has some advice for
the small town merchant.
Formula For Profits
Here is his formula for increasing
profits:
Combine your capital and get un-
der one roof.
"In many small towns one will find
drug store, hardware store, dry
goods store, a grocery store and
furniture store.
Each of these businesses neces-
sarily must buy in small quantities
thereby paying higher prices.
each has a large overhead ex-
pense.
What they should do is to COM
bine their capital and have one big
store under one roof, with grocery
department., hardware department
dry goods department, drug and
sundry department and SO on.
"Then the company would be
strong enough to buy in large guam
titles, getting better prices, better
credit and also cutting off large
slice of the overhead expense"
No Private Office
In his large store, Carver has no
private office. You will find his desk
right down on the first floor, just
as you come in the door.
He believes that every merchant
should mingle with his customers
wait on them at times, congratulate te
them on their new babies, talk about
their crops, and that's just what this
man Carver does.
An aristocrat never succeeds in a
country town, he thinks.

BY BERT VINCENT
NEA Service Writer

Strasburg, O., Sept. l9.-Can man
make million dollars by staying in
a little village Of less than 1000 pso-
pie?
One man in this country has done
it.
Sixty years ago G. "A. Carver was
born in this little Ohio town.
1t had almost as many people then
as it has now.
Its official population now is OF.
Other cities in Ohio grew rapidly,
their populations running up into
hundreds of thousands. Booms made
some villages into cities almost over
night, but such rapid progress passed
by Strasburg.
Many an ambitious young man left
Strasburg.
The town was too slow for them.
There were no opportunities for
bright young men" in such a cross
roads town, they thought.
The Call of the City
But Carver stayed with Strasburg.
He saw many of his companions go
to one metropolis and another with
the laudable ambition of winning
fame and fortune.
but that many of them failed. Some,
disillusioned and disappointed, came
back to Strasburg.
Carver has proved that there are
real opportunities for success in the
small town.
He never has lived in any other
place but Strasburg.
Wins Fame Too
Eor poarly FAM doco1oc ho has
been the village storekeeper. Instead
of chasing rainbows in a big metro
polls, he filled the job right in front
of him so we'll that today his wealth
is estimated at close to a million
dollars.
And as for fame--Graver is listed
by financial rating agencies and 9th
er business interests as one Of the
outstanding successes in the country.
The Graver Brothers store is
known as "The Largest Country
Store in the World"
Uusually country and small town
folk jump in their autos or catch
the interurban train for the big cities
to do their shopping.
But around Strasburg, the situa-
tion is reversed.
From cities of from $4,000 to 1OO,-
600 people come to the little cross
roads town to make purchases at the
Carver store. For years prices have
been lower there and Carver is not
ed for his courtesy and square deal
ing,
The Carver store, although occupy
ing three floors of a large building,
has not been "cityfied."
1t is still just big country store,
where one may buy almost anything
from a spool of thread to threshing
machine.
Small Town Chances
Carver is certain that many of the
millions of young men who havea left
