To @ woman of her type there fe only one thing stronger than her love of seemliness, of clean houses and minds, of controlled housebolds and passions, of respect from her own conscience and from her neighbors. That stronger thing is love for her | children, especially love tor her eons. | REFINED TORTURE FOR MOTHER | IN DAYS OF WAITING. And ao it is that this homely woman, homety !n the word's real and beautiful sense, finds the cour- age to elt every day beside Will Orpet in the court room, and endure with Bim the e@peculative gaze of | casual sightseers, the sombre con- fession of @ “fixed opinion” by juror |after juror, a confession which in- | variably ta from Will Orpet’s lawyers the one word, “Excused.” | It must be the sheerest refinement | of torture for this woman to hear the tacit condemnation of her eon from the lips of farmers, teamstors, shop- | keepers, all the simple folk among | whom she has lived for years, whose eyes she has always been able to meet with serene dignity. She un-| tne doudtedly hae an implicit belief in ‘Will Orpet's tanocence of the crime for which the State ie trying him. But although she does not think of im as the small-town Lothario—the white handed, soft voiced, effeminate “fusser” whom sentimental school sirls of a certain age consider “just sweet;” the chocolate fudge Romeo caught in a thunder storm of tragedy —she cannot but know of his relations with Marian Lambert and cannot but reatize that, even though Marian Lambert committed suicide, she propedly would be alive to-day were it mot for Will Orpet. Then finally she must lsten, hour after hour, to those two questions, with their undercurrent of ghastly @gnificance, which State's Attorney Dady puts to every one of the venire- men: “Are you opposed to capttal punishment?” I watched Mrs. Orpet carefully all day and every time that sentence was uttered she winced. Sometimes there was merely an extra tightening of lips that in the last few months have taken on a book of colorless compression; some- times the generous bosom heaved in @ deep, quiet sigh; sometimes the maternal shoulder edged protectingly toward the pale boy beside her, ORPET TO BE A WITNESS IN HIS OWN DEFENSE. She could not schoo! herself to hear that question unmoved, nor the following one, with an application even more poignant: “Do you believe in capital punishment in a case which rests wholly on circumstantial evi- dence?” It has Just been locally announced with considerable eclat, that Will Orpet will tell his own story of the death of Marian Lambert on the wit- ness stand, although the procedure has beon generally assumed from the beginning. But 1 doubt if, even dur- ing that recital, his mother’s agony 1s 80 keen as in these days of wait- ing. At the autopsy on Marian Lambert erystals of cyanide of patassium were found in her stomach and under her finger nails. The night before she died Marian, {t was discovered to- day, studied a lesson in chemistry which dealth with the fatal proper- tes of cyanide salts A ckissmate, Raymond C. Russell of No, 704 Sheridan Road, Lake For- est, pointed to-day to the page in thetr text book which contained the following paragraph: “At high temperature carbon unites with nitrogen from the coloriess and very potsonous gas, cyanogen (C2N2) With hydrogen and nitrogen tt forms hydorcyaine actd, often called prusste Jactd, This is a colorless Hauid, boll- ing at 26 degrees, and ts one of the most poisonous substances known.
