F|CKLENESS OF
FEMININE MIND
IS BEFORE JURY
Woman Charged With
Poisoning Husband, Jilt-
ing Lover.

BH " ma SPFDfc6
GOSHEN, N. Y, Dec. 10.-Those
who sing that woman is fickle' will
find prime jurisdiction in Mrs.
Lucy Baxter Early here-provided
the prosecuting attorney proves his
case against her.
The States theory is that she pois-
oned her husband for love Of another
man and then fell out with the other
man in a quarrel over $12-and the
other man from his jail cell let out
the tragic mystery.
That theory is not proved yet,
Mrs. Early-36, maternal, and cheer
ful-waits in the Jail for her trial
that is to come up before Christmas
and protests her innocence.

circumstances alone can convict an
innocent person. don't believe they
can prove what haven't done"
But the circumstances can be
pieced together into a fascinating
triangular love affair-a tragedy Of
unhappy wifehood and release
through poison, an adventure of
roadhouse operation and clandestine
rendezvous, a final jeering twist Of
fate by which the ashes Of romance
brought disclosure.
The other man in the case is Will
liam Wegley, 81. He had been an

Wegley had snatched her purse and
taken $12.
From his Jail cell, the incensed
'Wegley began to talk. He said that
he and Mrs. Early had begun meet
ing and carrying on a furtive love
affair last winter. Then, he said,
he had bought rat poison for Mrs.
Early at her request.
Well, the woman's husband, Daniel
Early, 40, working in a factory, and
veteran of the Spanish-American and
the Great wars, had died last March
Of mysterious stomach complaint.
After Wegley started talking, the
district attorney had Early's flag
lraped coffin dug up and found his
body was saturated with arsenic.
Exposed By $12
The prosecutor says he can prove
that Mrs. Early quarreled with her
husband, that she gave him all his
food and medicine during his illness,
that she and Wegley conducted a
love affair before and after Early's
death. And this whole shocking
theory Of secret guilt was dragged
into daylight as result of the insig-
nificant quarrel over a purse con-
tanning $12 in the automobile that
summer evening.
The basis of the prosecution. of
course, Is the supposed changeable-
ness Of woman. The defendant, the
jury will be asked to believe, wearied
quickly of both husband and sweet
heart.
Mrs. Early, for her part, says that
all her love is concentrated on two
very young men, her children, Dan

NEW YORK, Sept. 21.-F. T..
Hayes, proprietor of a news stand

sixth Street and Broadway. whom
neighbors had considered eccentric
for several months, tore a card
board placard from his stand and
with a stub of a pencil hastily
scrawled his last will. Then he ran

Hayes, who had been a regular
patron for years Of the Keith The

E. T. Goodman, assistant manager
Of the theater, by a boy just before
he ran to the subway. The will
left $1,000 to Goodman and $4,000

SCOTLAND IS IN
DRY FIGHT
By r. A. WRAY
International News Service

GLASGOW, Sept. 21.-Battle Is
now Joined in the greatest fight be-
tween "Drys'' and "Wets" that
Scotland has ever known.
All the forces Of Prohibition
which hope to make Britain dry
are in full action. On their, side,
the brewers are straining every
nerve to see that there shall be no
further reduction Of saloons and
that it shall not be made more diff
ficuIt for the worker to get his
drinks.
This is the third contest that has
taken place since the Scottish Tenn
perance Act came into operation in
1920. For the next two months the
battle will be waged increasingly.
Under the act, Scotland was d.
vided into 1,241 areas. Every three
years, if 10 per cent Of the inhabit-
ants demanded, a poll OF the in
habitants must be taken to decide
whether the area shall be dry,
''wet" or adopt the halfway atti-
tude known as "limita ton or
licenses" or in other words, reduc-
ton of saloons.
The first poll was taken in 584
areas in 1920 and sos declared
against any change in the licens-
ing law. The second poll in 1928
involved 257 areas and 208 declined
to make any change in the exist
ing system. The act states that
So per cent of the inhabitants must
record votes before any change can
be made, and there must be a pro-
hibitionist poll of 55 per cent be-
fore a single saloon can be closed.
Polling will take place on this
occasion in 260 areas and Glasgow,
a famous "wet" city, is the center
of the hottest fight. The advo-
Gates of prohibition admit that SO
far they have not achieved much
but now they are putting forces
into the field on a scale un-thought-
Of before.

TAMARACK, Mimi, Sept. Iii
Vernon Ewing, backwoods miracle
man." has announced the compile
ton OF plans for q worlds prayer"
starting Friday, October l, at 8
D. m, and lasting for three days.
Ewing, on June l., conducted a
silent prayer" in poplar grove
near here, which failed to produce
the miracle he anticipated.
Clergymen who opposed the Isl
lent prayer" last spring have in
dorsed the proposed world pray
er" Mr.. Ewing, an itinerant filter
OF eye glasses, said.
1.-THE first session Of the world
prayer will be silent and wordless
and those participating will fall
silent wherever they happen to be
at p. m, Ewing declared in an
interview with international News
Service. ''They will yield and sub
init their bodies and souls to God
for one hour. Worshippers in New
York and Washington will fall silent
about one hour before the people
who pray in Chicago, and thus
the prayer will travel completely
around the world.
"At 6 p. m. the following day
the people who participated in the
silent prayer will pray fervently
for 15 minutes or so aloud or ST.
lently, depending upon the choice
Of worshippers.
Commencing at p. m. Sunday
October, 1, the third and last
prayer session, in which worshippers
will pray for one hour, will begin
to circle the earth. Either silent
or audible prayers may be offered
up"
Those who pray will ask 'the
cleansing of sinners and the healing
Of the afflicted" Ewing said.
