Y., April 28.—There is a little gray-haired, gingham-clad woman in the county jail here. who tells a dispassionate Story of cold, deliberate murder that fairly sickens those who hear her, although some of them are used enough to tales of misdoing. She tells how months ago she planned the death of her nearest neighbor and best friend, an aged, kindly woman; how she paved the way for the greater crime by getting a fraudulent deed to her victim’s prop- erty, how she lured her to her home, how with her husband's aid she killed her with an axe, how she packed the body into a trunk, how! when she moved into the dead woman's home she took the trunk with its hideous secret with her, and how when the frightful discovery was finally made she held out her withered hands for the sheriff's handcuffs, saying simply, “Yes, we did it—me and Jimmy.” Bogar Allan Poe's pen never found | home from work, we toh Better materia! in fancy than this nar-j had sold us all r ees pied re Tatiye of fact provides. hollse and had g ioewatarieea tee ‘The woman whose corpse lay In the) ca alot] Wine reitR nice trunk was Mrs. Patrick Brennan, the!
