IttitS Brown Snyder and Henry Judd Gray, her eorset salesman paramour, are to pay with their lives for the crime that snatched them from ob scurity and , made them internation ally known.

Death sentence is mandatory for first degree m.iu*der, but the for mality of sentence was postponed until next Monday morning. Cheers greeted the verdict when it was flashed to the crowd outside I-one Island City’s supreme eouyt. Inside the court the verdict, was re ceived in ndleqge.

When, after the usual formalities, the foreman uttered his “both guilty of murder in the first degree,’’ Mrs. Snyder's blonde head, professionally' driseed for the occasion by i a hair dresser, jerked perceptibly. Her eyes, roving like those of one feinting, fixed upon trie square shoulders of her erstwhile lover. Then she stiffen ed. her head came hick into posi tion, an,d thus, erect and proud, she sat while the jury was polled. But Gray, whose ptea of domi nance by the superior ritind of Mrs. Snyder had led: some to believe bl n ( less trie stoic than the woman «4m> insinuated murder into his head, made no more fuss about the mutter than -she. laureate sermon by liev.

PHONE 363 DID 70tJ EVER BTOP TO THINK **— By EDSON fe. WAITE J. S. Parks, president of the Fort Smith, Arkansas, Timed-Record Com pany, says: That the bent story I have read in a long time on -the subject of thinking waiL the buHetin issued a few years ago by the American Educational As sociation of Philadelphia. As I re call it, it was about as follows: Jim was a track-walker. He in spected the roadbed. He had to think about tjes, rails, joints, nuts, bolts and frogs. If be did not think about hid work something would go wrong. There might be a derailment or a wreck. The road would become in efficient. It.would be his fault. The thinking of Jim, the track-walker, was important. Smith was a switchman. He stood in the tower-house. He bad to think about time-tables, schedules, train dispatches, switches and signals. If he did not think about his work some thing would gtf wrong. There would be delays or accidents. The railroad would become inefficient. It would be his fault. The thinking of Smith, the switchman, was important. Williams was the general manager of the railroad. He sat at his desk. He hid to think about income, ex penses, property, supplies and equip ment. If he did not think about those things something wonkl go wrong. It would be his fault. The thinking of Williams, the general manager, there fore, was important. Brown was president of the rail road. He sat at a desk in a private office. It was also his job to think. He had to think about the policy of the road, operations of its- different divisions, the various problems of transportation and things of that sort that came to him. If he did not .think about his work something would go wrong. It would be his fault. The thinking of the president, therefore, was very important. Now IT Jim, the track-walker, had stopped thinking about his work the thinking of the general manager could not have prevented an accident. If Williams, the general manager, had stopped thinking about his work the thinking of the track-walkeg could not have provided the payroll. It can easily be seen, that every one's thinking was necessary. So it is in any business. Each part of an organization depends upori the thinking of ail departments. Ev erybody has to think. Summarized, ..it means that the think-tank is as important ns the wat er-tank. y Fenner and Cotton Letter. New- Orleans.
