This satisfied Burrows, and he came
to his second point. II he could find the
suit of clothes which the murdered man
had on when the first shot struck him,
and if he found bullet hole in the gar
ments, it would bear out his theory that
Lewis had received one bullet from
without, and then, had undressed, the
second and fatal shot coming after.
Burrows was now anxious to search
for the suit Of clothes necessary to his
theory of the crime, but was Obliged to
wait until DR.. Snow had concluded his
investigation. This occupied some time,
for he very carefully made notes of all
the results. However, at last the doctor
signified his readiness to dismiss the
case for the day. The two men left the
room together, DIR. Snow carefully lock-

CHAPTER VIII.
THE INQUEST.

TWAS decided that the inquest should
be continued that same afternoon. The
squire had notified the district attorney
at Dover to be present and assist, and
he arrived during the morning. All OF
the jurymen and witnesses were there
fore notified to be present at the squire's
house at o'clock. This was at the sug-
gestion of Mr.. Barnes, who had spe-
cial reason for not going back to the
farm. He did not wish Virginia to
know that Marvel had been captured
until after she had testified. To further
this end Marvel was instructed to re-
main in one of the upper rooms, and
though he was not actually under ar
rest he felt constrained to obey.
Mr.. Barnes learned from Burrows OF
the strange noises that he had heard on
his first night at the farm, but told his
Young assistant that he had probably
been dreaming. When informed of the
singular behavior of Sarah Carpenter,
he thought that of sufficient Importance
to have her name added to the list of
witnesses. Burrows told nothing of the
information impaired by Josiah Skene.
Mr.. Barnes then sought the district
attorney and was closeted with him fer
an hour, during which they arranged
their plans for conducting the examina-
ton.
The inquest was to be held in large
room ON tho ground floor. 1t was we'll
adapted for the purpose because of the
fact that the squire had allowed it to be
used as a scboolroom while the select
men were having the regular school
house enlarged and remodeled. Thus
there was raised platform at one end,
upon which the squire and the witness
es could sit, while the rows OF bsnche,
readily afforded seats for the iurymel

CAUGHT At SACRAMENTO.
Arrest of JeweLy Thief Wanted for
Ro66mg a Los Angeles
Wo1,11

SACRAMENTO, CAL, April S-A
negro giving the name of Henry Williams
fell into the hands of the police to- day,
and search OF his person resulted in the
discovery of a genuine bonanza in valu-
able jewelry. In his vest pocket was
found magnificent gold watch, the case
being set with diamonds, rubles and en-
eralds. From other portions of his attire
were taken diamond pins, ladies' diamond
rings and other gems and jewels, and his
pockets contained mum ber of valuable
silk handkerchiefs.
Williams was dressed in the height of
fashion and was seemingly very indig-
nant over his arrest, eventually becoming
so abusive that 1t was found necessary to
apply the handouts.
At the jail Hall m ade what he claims to
be full confession. He says he is 10
years old. Three years ago he commi ted
his first crime in robbing O. Kane's jewelry
store in San Francisco of some $500 worth
OF diamonds. He escaped with his booty
to Chicago, but in attempting to dispose
OF 1t was arrested and returned to San
Francisco.
Because OF his youth he was sent to the
Whittier Reform School. Last Friday he
was paroled and obtained a position at
the Marlborough School, at Twenty-third
and Oak streets, Los Angeles. Not salts
fed with the treatment he received he
sstole the leweiry found upon him from
Mrs. M. a. Pierce, who is connected with
the school.
He went to San Francisco, pawned one
OF the rings and purchased his stylish out
ut, and then came to Sacramento The
Los Angeles officials have been notified
and the truth or falsIty of his story will
be aScertained tomorrow

WOW BY STANF0RD'S TEAM.
Santa Clara College Baseball Nine De.
fsated by the University
PIuuore

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CAL, April
S.-While the Santa Clara baseball team
put in little more ragged game than it
did against Berkeley a week ago in its
match with Stanford this afternoon, the
game abounded in pretty plays and inter-
esting features. At the close of the ninth
favor.
In the first inning Stanford opened hos
tiiities by scoring four runs by heavy bat
ting. Thompson brought Beckett and
Clemans in with home-run hit over the
left-tielder's head. When the visiting team
came to bat Beckett gave three men their
bases on balls, and man was forced
across the home plate. With two men
ont Sharp, who played right field. made a
sensational running catch, and the side
was retired With bu; the single score.
In the third inning Wight hit safe,
stole second and succeeded in reaching
home on Clemans' two-base hit. Thorn D.
son again connected with one of Keljey's
swift curves and brought in Clemans. two
tallies being added to Stanford's score.
In the last half OF the same inning
Taber knocked a slow grounder to Clemans
and beat out the throw TO first. He stole
second and third. Kelley drove long fiy
to center field, which was properly handled
by Thompson. After its having been
caught Taber made dash for home and
scored a tally.
Loughead of Stanford scored in the
fourth inning, but after that no runs were
made until the first half of the ninth. In
this jnning Stanford scored four more.
Weli-placed hits by Clemans, Thompson,
Klauber. Loughead, Freeman and Jeffs
were res sponsible for these runs. The
Santa Clara team was unable to even up
matters at all when Its tnrn to bat came.

TO Am THE UNEMPLOYED.
saivaton Army Proposes to Start Various
Industries to Emp,oy Men
and Women

LOS ANGELES, CAL, April s.-The
salvation Army of this city has been in
consultation with its leaders in other parts
OF the country for some time as to the be
method OF dealing with the unemployed
problem. The army authorities now come
forward with plan which they have laid
before number of business men and
workers in the charity field, and which is
considered feasible. 1t is to start various
industries, one at time, on a small scale.
to manufacture articles of common use.
where the element of labor is a large fac.
tor and which will not conflict in any con-
siderable degree with existing local in
terests.
They are particularly desirous of find
Ing lines OF work where women can be
EN- pioyed, and the first one TO be under
taken will be the making of rag CARPET.
The army will send out its own solicitors
to procure the rags from the people of the
city. and for so worthy an object large
quantities can undoubtedly be obtained
without other cost than that of gathering.
At the beginning, fr IN ten to twenty
women can be put at work at $3 a week
sorting and cutting the rags and weaving
them into carpets. The outlay for the
plant will be small, and it is calculated
that S2OO will accomplish all that is neces-
sary TO start the undertaking and produce
working capital until returns come in.
AS soon as the merit of the enterprise be-
comes evident it will be possible to en-
large 1t 10 employ many more women,
and perhaps some men.

LOSES A NAN At SAN DIEGO
One of tho Cruiser PhIiadsLphia's Sailors
Foisoned by Drinking SheHac and
Water

SAN DIEGO, CAL, April S.-A squad OF
sailors from the flagship Philadelphia
came ashore few nights ago, and IN an
uptown saloon one of the party bought
drink which the bartender called milk
punch"
That's pretty good" said one OF the
boys, cant you give us the recipe2
The barkeeper good-naturedly complied
and on Tuesday the sailors came ashore
and bought the supposed ingredients, re-
turning aboard in few hours. Some one
blund cred, however, for after partaking OF
the mixture all the men became i'll, and
this morning one CT their number, King
Victor. died. Another, John Hellman, IS
very low and two others are so sick that
they could not be around for good many
days. Victor's body was transferred to
the Monadnock this afternoon because of
the early departure of the Philadelphia
for Honolulu and the remains will be in
tered in Mt. Hope cemetery tomorrow
The surgeon attending pronounced the
cause of Victor's death to be acute gas
tritis, with strong symptoms of ur8mic
poison. An autopsy upon the body late
this afternoon revealed the fact that the
mans stomach was fairly lined with
shellac, which the sailors are said to mix
with water snd drink. They get the
shelac to paint the ship and use it in
stead for the alcohol there is in it. 1t is,
of course. very poisonous and its use will
Kill in time
