After month? of silence Miss Najeeba

ter to Governor Whitman, in which she
confesses full responsibility for the
death el Kayat? a crime for which her
brothei-in-law, Klias ('azra, is now
under sentence of death at Sine; Bing.
Miss Gabtat was the dark-eyed belle
of the little Syrian colony in Wa-thinir
?on Street, Manhattan, back of the
lowering Broadway office buildings.

almost a nightly visitor in the little

where Najeeba lived with lier sister
and brother-in-law, Ellas.

ni-lied in a'ter lum. A pistol barked
four time?, and the bystander? who
rushed into the room found Kayat's

Swears She Shot Him
Najeoba wa* holding the weapon from
which the bullets had been tired when
a policeman reached the scene.
"I have killed him; lock me up!" she
exclaimed.
She had forgotten the code in her
tmitemtnt; the ?pint of revenge in the
?roman ?poke. Hut Klias had not for
gottea. He rushed forward protesting
vehemently that he alone hail killed
Kayat. He told how he ami N'ajeeha
had caused Kayat to be haled to court
on a leriOBI charge anil how he had
been discharged in Geaaraiateteiaat.
The law had failed, and there was but
one thing to do undpr the Syrian code.
Excitement prevailed in the colony.
?\t Urti none could he found who ad

Mrs. Frankel Gets
Phone if Husband
Does Not Use It
_
Spring Valley Man's Alleged
Langtiaga to Central Puts
Mini Lncler Ban
If Mane M. Frankel. ?* Spring Val*
, ley, Ro'.kland County, has occasion to
call up the butcher to order some lamb
chops for breakfast he can't do it, the
i Public Service Commission of the Sec
! ond District has ordered. At least, he
' can't do it over the 'phone that is to
be installed in his home. If Mrs.
Frankel wants to make the call, that's
a different matter, and UM a\ S. ?'.
will offer no objection?. But Mr
!? ranke! is persona non grata at the re
eeiver, and h? is to get 'phone service
only on condition that he does not
use it.
Mr. Frankel has been waging war
! with the New York Telephone Company
for months. Recently the Public Ser?
vice Commission sustained the action
of the company in discontinuing his
, service, on the ground that the he used
i profane language to the operators,
, called them ''bums'' and annoyed them
in other ways.
The commis?ion altered its ruling on
Saturday, to ivoid imposing a hardship
on Mrs. Frankel. Telephone service
' will be given the Frankel home in her
! name on condition that Frankel keeps
' away from the instrument.
The company stated they had no
fault to tind with lira. Frankel's tele?
phone manners, but objected to giving
. her a 'phone because her husband would
I "enjoy the opportunity to use the in?
strument, and because, in the opinion
ot the respondent, Mr. Frankel is al
most certain to misconduct himself on
j these occasion?, to the detriment of the
sarrias generally and the injury of re
Spondent's employe? "
