7 X TTTE OMATTA SrXPAY BEE: .TUNE 3, IMG. WALN GETS LIFE SENTENCE Beoond Colored Man Tried for Flnrj'i Murder Glad to Escapo Death. ALL HIS LAWYERS EXPECTED TO GAIN Irlmlaal Smiles Whva VeHlct Read torn rtlil Uim- Dl wlfh Clark. la Imprisonment In the penitentiary for Ufa wii the penalty Imposed by the Jury upon Calvin Wain for hla part in the attempted holdup and murder of Street Car Conductor Edward Klury at the Albright witch March t. The Jury returned the verdict at 4.30 yesterday afternoon after deliber ating three-quarters of an hour. Wain amlled Joyfully when the verdict waa read and ha learned he had escaped the deuth penalty, lie was led out of the room by Sheriff McDonald Immediately after the verdict waa read, but hla at torneys, Joseph J. Breen and Judge E. M Bartlett. thanked the Jury personally for the verdict. The verdict was taken by them a well as by Wain as a victory, as they did not expect to do more than save him from the gallows. The verdict was reached without much trouble. Six ballots were taken. On the first the vote stood eight for Ufa imprison ment and four for the death penalty. As the balloting proceeded the Jurors Who stood for hanging switched over gradually to the majority, until the sixth vote, when the agreement was reached. A.' C. Bmlth signed the verdict as foreman. The attorneys for Wain declared they were satisfied with the verdict And It not probable a new trial will be asked for. County Attorney Blabaugh began the closing argument at I o'clock and spoke until 3:16. He made a strong plea for con viction and the death penalty, asserting that Wain was as much or more of a leader than Clark, who was deviously convicted and sentenced to dTith. At the conclusion of his address J4dge Sutton 'read his In structions and at 1:30 the Jury filed out. At 4:15 It waa announced the agreement had been reached. When Wain whs brought Into the court room to hear the verdict he appeared Very nervous. He showed the strain until the words "'life imjrlsonment" were- reached, then his fuce become' wreathed In smiles and lie lenned over and spoke to his at torneys, expressing- his Joy at the verdict. The crime for which Harrison Clark, was decreed to suffer death and Wain life Im prisonment was committed about 12:15 on the morning of March S, at the Albright street car switch. Clark. Wain, and Clar ence Qathrlght started out about 10 o'clock to hold up suloons. After going through two they went, to the Albright switch In time to catch 'the last car on which Ed ward Fluty was conductor. Flury had Just stepped from the car to turn the switch when Wain, according to the story of . Qathrlght, ordered him to hold up his hands. Then the shooting began and Klury was shot through the wrist and abdomen, the latter wound causing his death a week later. The arrest of the colored trio was brought about a few days after the hooting ''through Information given to the police by Mrs. Nettie Jones, to whom Clark gave the money obtained from the saloon hold up to keep. Fearing she would be impli cated If she did not tell what she knew she made a statement to the police and the three men were arrested. Clarence Qathrlght. after his. arrest, made a confession of the whole thing and ap peared as a state's witness In both cases, if has not been tried yet. - Shortly after their arrest an attempt was made . by a mob to take them from the Jail and hang them, but they were spirited away and taken to Lincoln until the ex cKement died down. to the satisfaction of thnneands that they are Justly entitled to the name long given them by the press of the country, "Ihe assassins of sorrow." A Colorado paper In spesklng of the Patterson-Brsinerd rompsny, says: "The formal opening of the carnival week took pla" yeeterday ' afternoon at 1:30 o'clock with a whoop and a hurrah, and all bid adieu to work snd worry, and the thou sands who thronged the main entrance were more than pleased with the perform ances. At night the thousands of packed people on pleasure bent crowded and Jostled each other for a mora favorable stsnd to see the sensational free acts. There wss uproarious confusion, explosive hilarity snd good-natured skylsrklng everywhere. 'Early In the day the rroverblsl snnsll boy snd many of the older cousins ap- pesred at the gates and throughout the workmen In an attempt to see all the curiosities of the carnival. Lsst night the demonstration of patronage was moat gratifying to the management, and any one who attended the midway or any of the shows were well pleased, and the unl versal remark heard on every hand waa that the shows are fine, the free acts are superb and the entire affair is more than we ever expected."
