BLOOD ON THE REVOLVER.
Evidence Fast Gathering Regarding the
Crosby Murder.

Haverhill, October 5.-The authori !.
ties today established the fact that the
44-calibre revolver shown at the Crosby
murder case at A mesbury was the wea-
pom used in the murder. After the pre-
liminary B, hearing, the revolver swas
turned ove~ to Professor Wood of Har-
yard College and since then he has
made critical examination and found
traces of blood upon the weapon. This
fact was reported at the hearing before
the grand jury at Lawrence, when the
six witnesses were examined.
State Officer Hammond and Chief of
Police Ives of Merrimac, told what they
knew about the case, and Ernest Jewell
of this city gave information relative to
Hunt having purchased such a weapon
at his store, and also that Hunts father
had tried to pawn the revolver few
days after Ethe murder. Henry Crosby
told of the shooting, and Frank Little,
one of the accused men, repeated the
story he told at the preliminary hear
ing.
\ Professor Wood was the other witness,
and he testified to having found blood
ON the fatal bullet and also upon the
weapon which it is claimed was used by
Hunt, who, Little asserts did the
shooting
The new discovery reveals the cause
or the sears upon the victims head, and
the authorities assert that they are
able to prove that Hunt, before firing the
fatal shot, struck the murdered man over
the head with the weapon. The grand
jury will return its finding tomorrow.

A Modern Jonah.

London Qniver is responsible for this
unlikely story:
People of the free thinking class often
dispute the story of Jonah and the
whale not SO much OH account of its
improbability as because it is in the
Bible. They declare that the whale
never lived that could swallow man,
but such persons should remember that
the word whale" as used in holy writ
referred to any large species of fish. Not
long since Il shark and sailor i'll the
Mediterranean sea re-enacted the part of
Jonah and the whale to perfection. The
man fell overheard and instantly disap-
peared in the mouth of q monster shark.
The captain fired a gun at the beast from
the deck, and as the shot plowed through
its back it cast the man out again, and
he was rescued, perfectly unhurt, but
so badly frightened that he was sick for

concerning the islands Of the Pacific,
declared that the only movement toward
civilization that amounted to anything
in these islands had been made by the
church; gospel, not gunpowder; life,
not death; bibles, not bullets.
The only movement that at this time
has full swing in Samoa is trade gin -
That maddens and imbrutes and has
given to Samoa the unsavory and I'M
just title of the ''hell of the Pacific -
The foreign gin is helped in its work

is prepared in the following delicious
way: There is a plant called Piper me-
thisticum, from the root Of which the
kava is made. A young Samoan woman
moved to one of the FIJI islands, but
got tired and resolved to return to her
native islands. Before starting home
ward she saw rat, which seemed weak
and thiE, eat the root Of this plant,
when the rat Immediately became strong
and vigorous, and she concluded that
the best thing she could do for her ma
