AN APRIL Fool INQUEsT.-Iu the court
yard OF the third precinct stationhouse is a
stuffed form not unlike that of man.
Yesterday it was covered with a blanket
and several parsons were invited to look at
d murdered man and see if they could
recognize him, and then came cry of April
fool. This was carried on until it grew
monotorous, after which several reporters
resolved themselves into coroner, city
physician, etc, and summoned jury. One
of the party stood in front OF the building
and summoned five citizens as a Jury, and
when they were all sworn in witness was
called on to testify. He, with sober face,
declared that he had found the body but had
not touched il; lie did see pistol or vial OF
poison; notified the police. Another wit
ness began to testify, but was unable to
suppress his mirth altogether, when one OF
the jurors became suspicious. All the
formalities having been attended to, the
body was uncovered fer an autopsy, where,
upon five iurymen smiled audibly and sud
denly retired. Captain Montamat arrived
at that moment, too late to stay proceed
ings, yet he enjoyed the joke. .
