Was Pronounced Insane.
Sioux City, Iowa, Feb 27 -- Mrs. Alice Blood was acquitted here
Saturday on motion of the prosecution of the charge of murdering her
husband, George Blood, last fall. The state's physicians pronounced
her insane. She shot her husband in the back as he sat eating his
breakfast. She then retired to her bedroom and becoming annoyed by
the groans of the unfortunate man, she returned and finished the
murder with a second bullet. She claimed that her husband
systematically ill-treated her. Mrs. Blood is now critically ill.
