Hon. Alvin Barleigh, senior counsel for
Amy. declined to-day to either affirm or
deny thar anything was under way.
IL was claimed By Amy in his statement
concerning the tragedy, at the trial. that
this wound was accidental, and that he
scarcely knew, or was ignorant entirely of,
how the pistol was discharged.
Evidence was introduced by the defence
TO show that a wound made by pistol held
in the position that the state claimed in this
ease must have shown results different
from those revealed bv the atopsy. The
explosive effects, they maintained. must
have been greater ami more destructive TO
the internal organs and some testimony of
medical men who had made subsequent; ex-
periments With reyolyers, was introduced
in support OF their theories.
The new evidence, that the defence wish

same line. By thi. testimony it is intended
to show that ii subs;dntiates Almy's story
that the first shot WAS accidental amt the
second was fired to pat his victim out of
misery thus disestablishing the theory of
premeditated or wiiful killing.
Whether Judge Due will conclude to re-
open the case and admit this testimony will
not, of course, be known until the assem-
bling of court. In any event, however, it is
altogether probable that the chief justice

Fable About the Pansy.

4 pretty fable of the pansv is current
among children The flower has five pet
ais and five seIuls, In most pansies, es-
peciallv of the earlier AMI less highly de-
yeloped varieties, two of the petals are
plain in color and three are gay. The two
plain petals have single sepat two of the
gay petals have sepai each and the third,
which Is the largest of all, has two sepals,
The fable is that the pJnsy represents 4 fam
lily, consisting of husband, wife and four
daughters, two of the latter being stepchil-
drcn of the wife The plain petals are the
stepchildren, with only one chair; the two
small gay petals arr the daughters, with Il
chair each and the large gay petal is the
wife, with two chairs, To find the father,
one must strip away the petals until the
stamens and pistils are bare. They have a
fanc!tul resemblance To an old mau with a
flannel wrap ahn,it his neck, his shoulders
