Evidence ofPouI Play.

WALLIseroRD. Conn, July 7.-Medisal
Examiner McGahey of this town who has
been investigating the mystery concerning
the death of Alfred johnson, the six year old
boy whose body was found in Lake Com
munity yesterday morning. said tonight that
he was satisfied that there was foul play con-
nectsd with the lad's death. There were
several bruises on the head which leads the
medical examiner to believe that the boy had
been struck on the head and then thrown
into the water. Coroner Mix was busy to-
day investigating the Waterbury murder case
and could not come to Wallingford. DIR.
McGahey would not say whether he had any
suspicious as to who committed the assault,
but promised interesting developments to-
morrow. The affair has created great ex-
element in this place. The statement that

Edward n. Fraser of New York, whose

last, had taken great fancy to the horse
OF his neighbor, u butcher. Every day
between IL and the horse came home
from his round of calls, and Mr.. Fraser
always had some apples and cake ready to
give his tavorite. The horse would whinuy,
and with cooked ears would look out
eagerly for his owner, paving in its inn
patience until he appeared.
FOR the first two or three days after the
death of his friend tho horse kept up his
watching and whnnying, but seems now
to have realized the truth. He is the most
deiected-looking horse in New York. As
he returns from his trip, he hangs his head
moodily and sadly, and is not half the
beauty he was week ago. curious
point in the ease is that he will not take an
apple from those around, who wonder and
pity the horse in his bereavement
