JEFPERSON, o., June 19,——
Mrs. Julia Maude Lowther. 23-year-
old domestic and'mother of a boy
of seven, today awaited the sen-
tence that will order the electro-
cution of a woman m Ohio for the
first time.
A jury of 12 men yesterday con-
victed her of first degree murder
tor the slaying of Mrs Clara Smith.
28, at Ashtabula, wife of the man
with whom she carried on a 10-day
romance. By fallins to recommend
mercy, the jury made the death
sentence-, mandatory under Ohio
law.
Tby 8mith, 37. husband of the
stein woman, also is under a death
sentence. Mrs. Lowther on the wit
neat confessed lying in wait on a
lonely road near Ashtabula the
night of May 29, 1930. As Smith
drove his wife to the appointed
place in his truck, Mrs. Lowther
stepped from concealment and fired
the fatal shot. Mrs. Smith died with
one at her two small children in her
arms. *-
Attorneys for the defendant had
plead for mercy on the ground that
Mrs. Lowther was blinded by love
tor Smith. The woman had testi-
fied they wanted “to go away to-
gether."
The defense announced a motion
tor a new trial would be filed to-
day.
Falls catcher who hit a double and
home run Monday night against
. Fort Worth, led the Bpudders at-
tack.
At Houston the Buffaloes pulled
. one out of the fire by scoring a
pair of runs in the last of the ninth
to not only beat the Dallas Steers
6/to $ but to stay within half a
game of Beaumont. George Murray
and Tex Carleton were the oppos-
ing pitchers and both went the
, route with Murray the loser.

of wholesale butchery and of a

thrust themselves into the Chinese

government announced a broaden-

communism and banditry. -
Advices from Nanchang, capital
of the bandit infested Kiangsi
province, said ten thousand person/
had been slaughtered near Kiaufu
in a clash in which outlaws, fai-
men and soldiers figured.
1 The reports eald the outlaws sue
ceeded in isolating 3,000 soldier
but due to the latten’ supply ol
machine guns and rifles did not
daie attack them directly.
The bandits then rounded up ten
thousand noncombatant farmers,
according to the report, and drove
them against the soldiers. Using the
helpless mass of humanity as a
shield, the bandits were said to
have waited while the soldiers
mowed down the farmers with ma-
chine guns until their weapons
were overheated or otherwise out
of commission. Then the outlaws
charged annmhilating the troops*
