to law. George I*. Pepooo. now coo-
toed In the Be vena county Jail, may

man from notifying against him
when he la placed on trial the follow
ing day to answer to the charge oi
?MV.ng murdered his first wife. Thla
Is «m< of the most Interesting features
ul a case which ha* attracted nttan*
•Ion throughout Oregon. Waah|pgtoa
and Idaho, and the trial which la m-
salted with latense Interest.
George I. Pepooo and his wife were
residents of Newpdrt. this county.
The death of Mr*, pepoon occurred
on August 29, last and at that time
was ascribed to natural causes. Short
ly afterward. however, Mrs.. N.. D.
NVolcott of Portland, the mother of
d**ad woman, visited the acene
tr.d brought to light facts which led
•o the arrest and Indictment of the
husband on the charge of having
murdered his wife by putting strych
nine In her food. Sensational devel
opments In the raae followed In rapid
succession until the accused husband
cannot escape conviction, even though
he marries the woman with whom he
la now living and thereby prevents
her being called as a witness for the
state.
On the day following the funeral
of Mrs. ISdlth Pepooo, Maude Keller,
whose conduct with pepoon had been
the cause of much comment, applied
for a divorce from h»-r husband who
had left her several year* before.
When her case came up for hearing.
Pepoon wna the only witness In her
behalf. The decree was granted.
Then, without waiting for the per
iod of six months to el»i»*e. as the
law of the State of Washington re-
quires before a divorced woman enn
remarry, Pepoon and the Keller wo
man went to Rofsland. It. C\. and
there a wedding ceremony was per
formed. Upon their Teturn to the
town of Newport they lived a* hus
band and wife, although I heir mar
riage was not recognized l»y the law*
of this State. The *lx months requir
ed by law will elapse on the day bo-
fore the fixed day for the trial of
Pepoon to begin If the woman suc

marriage ceremony performed in jail

the law prcscrllie* that a wife cannot
testify against her husband. The
prosecuting attorney, however, pro
fesses to have a strong cat* against
t!i« husband without the testimony of
the wife.
The prosecution declare* that Pe-
|MM»n « desire to marry the Keller wo
man was not'the only motive that
might have Induced him to commit
the alleged murder. It has been learn
ed that shortly before the death of
Mrs Pwpoon the husband had Induced
her to take out a life Insurance poli
cy for f|,oon. Three weeks after the
woman took out the policy, she was
given a glassful of strange colored
liquid, according to the statement of
the prosecuting attorney. The li
