AUNTS.-The district court in PittsfieIi had
genuine sensation yesterday, when Grace
N. Hose, colored girl, twelve years old,
owned up to poisoning her two aunts, with
whom she lived, Lucinda Murray and Polly
Duncan, being put up TO IL by her granI
mother, Mrs. Wormsley, whose alleged Oh
ject was TO get possession of little house
and lot which would fall To her on the death
of the two women. Grace said her grand
mother first gave her some brown powder TO
put In the coffee, which made one OF the
women very sick. Again she tried putting
something from two bottles into the soup
and other food, but although the women
were sick, they still live and appeared in
court to confirm the girls story. The Judge
issued warrant for Mrs. Wormsley's arrest
