DR.. EMERSON
GIVES TESTIMONY

DIR. NJ thaniel B. Emerson, police
surgeon, was the first witness intro
day morning he made an examination
of the body of Mrs. Linda K. Jones.
4 bullet wound in the head was found
which was sufficient to cause death
the bullet having passed through the
brain. Asked if he had found any
other wounds on the body. he said he
did not make a complete examination
of the whole body, but did not notice
any other wounds or signs of violence.
In his opinion the weapon must have
been fired close to the head of the vic
tim, as there were powder marks and
the hair was singed. In making the
examination of the wound, it was found
that the bullet had penetrated the
head, lodging just above the ear.
At this stage, DR.. Emerson produced
the bullet and fragments of the skull
which had been removed. The bullet
was a thirty-two caliber and was ap-
parently an old one. being greatly
corroded. Notes made by the doctor
were produced, but the Deputy Sher-
iff asked him to hold them until the
trial of the prisoner should come off.

DIR. MINER A WITNESS.

nSned IN this paper-the morning or tnt
tragedy.
DIR. MINER a WITNESS.
DR.. F. L. Miner was the next wit
ness. He told of his examination OF
the body of Mrs. Parmenter after
| death. He examined the body all
over. Death was caused by a bullet
than that over the right eye. The
skin was blackened by powder and the
eyebrow burned. The right cheek was
blackened and swollen, while a dis
coloration on the neck extended down
to the chest. In probing the wound.
the probe was passed right through
the eye-ball. The lower jaw was also
found to be fractured. To make a
thorough examination, the skuli-cap
was removed and the brain taken out.
The bullet did not penetrate the brain,
though much Inflammation had set up
in the region of the wound. From the
nature of the wound, it would seem
that Mrs Parmenter was in a STOPPING
position, probably looking up. at the
moment of the shooting.

saw a woman go to the front steps.
He thought this was funny. He went

yard, he was warned by Mrs. Parmen-

Grand Opera House.

Charles Taylor seems to have the knack of writing just the sort of plays that appeal to the people. There are probably not six plays in the history of melodrama success and played to the phenomenal business that have attended "Queen of the Highway and ''King of the Opium Ring" But MT. Taylor has far ;exceleld any of his pre- vious efforts in ''The Child Wife," the new domestic play which William T. Keogh will produce here at the Grand opera house Thursday, Friday, Satur- day, this week, with matinee Saturday. This latest play of MT. Taylor's is built on entirely new lines. It concerns the life of a young girl of sixteen who marries a boy sweetheart to escape the prosecutions of a lawyer bent on secur- ing her fortune. This scheming villain causes all sorts of trouble for the youthful couple, finally attempting their murder in a boat house on the East river, but they manage to escape in a boat during roaring storm and are rescued by the crew of the Fall River line steamer Priscilla and are brought to New York, where the villain is ex- posed and all ends happily. MT. Keogh has engaged an especially capable com- pany to interpret the piece and has provided a complete scenic production painted by Charles L. Carson, general scenic artist at the new Star theater, New York.

YEsTERDAY,S STOCK MARKET.
Notable Feature the Decided Failing Ofr
 fm Volume of Business.


 New York, April 15.-The notable fea- ture of to-day's stock market was the decided falling off in the volume of business. Aggregate sales for the day barely reached half a million shares. compared with over 800000 shares yes- terday and a million and a quarter on Monday. There was some continued demand to cover short contracts to-day. but there was also evidence of further liquidation of a substantial but not at all precipitate character. As prices reached higher level there was the in- evitable selling which always follows a violent decline.
 The fact that Northern Securities on the curb, although quiet, ruled as a level below last nights close all day was an additional incentive to caution on the long side. Nevtreheless, there was considerable buying at different points in the list of seemingly good character and based on individual causes. Missouri Pacific was we'll talk en all day on it's report of net earnings for February, showing an increase over February of last year of $373, 756, which is no less than 79 per cent. increase. The other members of the Gould group moved in sympathy. Baltimore and Ofios report for March showed an in- crease in net earnings Of S4 per cent, and it was freely bought in cense- quence.

Henry Clark is well known in Fair Haven and had lived in the Dan Grosvenor place on Lenox street in the winter with his wife and sons. During the cold months he worked at opening oysters and had recently been employ ed by r. Mansfield & Sons. In the sum- mer he lived at Tylerville, where he owned a place and fished for living. About two years ago Clark was report ed lost, but later turned up, having rescued two students from a sinking craft.

Henry Clark Reported Lost Off Say brook by His Son-Unable to Make Port-A PecuIiar Cnincidance

Henry Clark Reported Lost Off Say brook by His Son-Unable to Make Port-A Peculiar Coincidence. Saybrook, April 15.-Henry Clark and his son, Louis Clark, of Fair Haven, who started out in two power launches to go to Tylerville, on the Connecticut river, yesterday, were caught in the blow off the breakwater. Late last night the son landed here in his launch and reported that he had lost sight of his father and the other launch. Clark
 and his son live in Fair Haven in the winter and fish for shad in Tylerville in
 the spring and summer. It is feared
 the elder Clark may have been lost in
 the storm.
 Clark and his son started from New
 Haven at 9 o'clock Monday morning.
 The old man, who is lame and walks
 with a crutch, was in a nineteen-foot sharpie fitted with power. The son says the last he saw of him he was at Corntield Point and evidently in trou- ble. The water was so rough that the son dared not turn about and he put in here at Saybrook Point. This noon nothing had been seen of the missing craft or of Clark. The son returned to New Haven, where his mother is. In the winter time Clark and his wife are employed as oyster openers. The elder Clark is about forty years old.

Prohibition in the South.

The facts printed by the Record
Herald yesterday concerning the
progress of the prohibition movement
in the South will undoubtedly
surprise persons who have not kept in
touch with the developements.
Usually much more is heard of the
troubles the Prohibitionists have had
in Maine and Vermont than of their
successes elsewhere.
Ten of the southern states are
shown to have local option laws,
under which, apparently, a majority
OF the counties or cities, as the case
may be, have adopted total prohibi-
tion and many others have put
stringent restrictions on the sale OF
liquors.
The figures for the total number Of
saloons in the southern states as COM
pared with New York, which are
furnished by Secretary Alonzo e.
Wilson Of prohibition state commit
tee, tell well the story Of progress.
Fourteen southern states, with !
combined population Of about 90, AGO..
600, have q, 900 saloons, or about
one: for 76o inhabitants. New York,
with = census population Of I, ,269, 900,
