NEW YORK, February 7.—Helen Rosen, 29 years old, with a police record as a shoplifter, was in jail today under life sentence as the first woman con- victed as a fourth offender under the! Baumes iabitual criminal law. | She was sentenced yesterday after a | jury, deliberating 15 minutes, decided that four pleas of guilty, which she had entered to charges of shoplifting dur- ing the past 10 years, brought her un- der the provisions of the Baumes law. ‘When sentence was pronounced by Judge Max S. Levine, the woman, now known as Mrs. Ruth St. Clair, fainted. She was restored and carried hysterical from the court room. CONTRASTS MARK HOME OF SUCCESSFUL AUTHOR| Osbert Sitwell and Sister Combine | 0ld and New in Strange Chelsea Home. LONDON (N.AN.A.).—Osbert Sit- well, who has had a success with his new novel, “The Man Who Lost Him- self,” lives in Chelsea with his sister Edith. Their house is a jumble of old and new. One room is filled with Victorian wax | flowers under glass, Berlin woolwork pictures and an immense tree made of | looking glass, wool and feathers; but| the portraits on the walls are ultra- | modern, and on the large Victorian table are spread fanwise all the Sit- well publications. In another room, together with Vic- torian screens, are Dobson’s bust of Osbert and Maurice Lambert’s bust of Edith and some old Italian masters, a Wyndham Lewis painting, grinning negroid heads, two Duncan Grants and a patchwork cottage tablecloth. A minute strip of garden boasts a fig tree. This room is hung with multi- colored tissue and furnished with baroque chairs and a settee in the ! shape of dolphins, apparently composed | of mother of pearl. ‘The sitting room on the first floor loose covers of bright sugar stick and kingfisher blue striped silk and | brittle looking glass trees and orna- ments on little tables.
