Columbus, O., Jan. 15—An outcast of society, wandering the streets

homeless, Mona Simon, twenty-six years old, once respected choir girl, of Phillipi, W. Va., sought revenge on the class of men she blamed for her disgrace by spreading a social scourge.

8he laughed and sneered at her victim, taunted him and Inquired, "What are you going to do about it?" Her death by murder at the Desh-

ler hotel last Thursday night was the answer. Wei don H. Wells, twenty- three years old, of Kansas City, con- fessed to the murder, the police say, Immediately after being brought to the city prison last night from Hunt- ington, Ind.

"I noticed that something was the matter with her and she told me she had a social disease," said Wells.

"I was crazy, raved and was out of my head for a minute. I was wor- ried and scared to death. I cursed her.

"I reached in the drawer of the writing desk at the head of the bed and got the gun, reached out and shot. She staggered back and fell on the floor.

"I stood and trembled and saw the whole horrible thing," continued Wells. "I then went down the ele- vator, walked out of the hotel, went to the station and took the 10 o'clock train for Indianapolis and Hunting- ton." Temporary Insanity probably will

be pleaded for Wells, it was said.
