METHODIST EPISCOPAL

The spirit of the Easter time is
manifest already in the services
in the attendance and in spirit of
hopefulness revealed. The subject
for the service at II o'clock next
Sunday morning will be "The Be
trayors of Jesus" The special mu-
sic at the morning services is be-
ing much appreciated by all. 1t is
a real part of our morning wor-

ming. was an added factor in the
evening service and promises much
for the future. The subjects for
the evening services until Easter

ence to the problems of the young

Albany, x. Y, Oct. (P-Ruth snyder and Henry Judd Gray have made their first bid for salvation rom the electric chair. Counsel for the two appeared before the court of appeals yesterday to argue that they should have new and separate trials for the murder Of Albert Snyder, the woman's husband m Queens Village last spring.
 Resting their case on the sinrl. l"gal point that Mrs. Snyder's con stitutional rights were invaded when she was denied separate trial upon first being brought to justice, her counsel found occasion to de clare that the trial was surrounded with incidents peculiar 10 such spectacular affairs" as prize fights or circuses.

 Counsel for Gray held his picture up for the court to see as a helpless tool Of Mrs. Snyder, who had been prevented from freely selecting q iury of his peers. And for whom if vas found impossible to obtain q jury wholly free from bias, preju- dice or re-dispostion." The corset salcsman's counsel also denied that a motive for the crime had been established.
 To this statement Assistant Dis trct Attorney C. w. Frozelle, of queens county. replied that "inSur- ance was the dominant motive for the killing of Albert snyder. He told the court that while Snyder believed he was getting q policy for Sl.ooo. Mrs. Snyder had arranged to have q $50,0o0 policy written
 As to tho contention that Gray and Mrs. Snyder should have had separate trials. he held that they jointly confessed and were jointly indicted and they properly stood trial jointly
