SKELETON

Grewsome Object too Much

COURSE OF THE BULLET
Prosecution Claims that Caesar
Youns's Wound Could Not
Have Been Self.lnnicted

NEW YORK, Nov. 23.-Several un.
usual features were presented in the
supreme court In the trial of Nan Pat.
terson for the alleged murder of Gaze
sar Young Frederick d. Michaels, the
cabman, described the cab in which
Young met his death. He said that he
heard the sound Of q pistol shot and
that Miss Patterson opened the trap a
moment later and told him to drive to
drug store, but that he did not look
into the cab. He then told what &C.
Cured up to the time when he reached
the hospital where Young's body was
taken.
During the day q skeleton and two
pieces of skin from Young's second
finger were produced in court by the
prosecution. The skeleton was shown
in order that the course of the bullet
that killed Young might be traced. The
state it is understood expects TO use
the pieces of skin in refuting the sui
eide theory.
The introduction of these exhibits
caused n sensation in the courtroom,
and for time Miss Patterson seemed
on the verge OF collapse The court
room was crowded when the trial was
resumed, and the corridors of the
building We're thronged.
Several policemen We're put on the
witness stand to testify regarding Incl
dents that followed the arrest of Miss
Patterson, and Police Captain Sweeney
identified the revolver which, he said,
was found in Young's pocket after the
shooting.
Corcner's Physician O'Hanlon, who
performed the autopsy, was called and
said the cause of death was hemor-
rhage of the left lung, resulting from a
bullet wound. BY means Of the skele- |
ton he then showed the direction taken |
by the bullet.

and at the close of the hearing Judge
Bates held Moon in the sum of $1,000
for the grand jury.
Moon claims that it is put up job
against him, and that he will show his
innocence. AS he could not furnish

INTERESTING OLD MANSION.
House on Town Hill Recently Bought BY Ed~
n. Harvey.

Since the purchase bv Edward Fl.
Harvey Of Cleveland, Ohio of the
Swift property on Monument avenue,
there has been considerable speculat.
ion as to the age OF the house which
stands on the grounds, and which is
on the same premises as the one at
one time was occupied by William
Lloyd Garrison during the time that
he edited the Journal of the Pines of
Bennington Center.
Investigation shows that the house
was built in 1915 by Col Nathaniel
Brush who took a prominent part in
early Vermont history and promi-
nent lawyer of this section, a leading
member of the Masonic fraternity, and
who was the first grand treasurer of
the Grand Lodge + & A NJ of Vermont
serving from 1894 to 1900.
He occupied the house until 1870
when he disposed of it and moved 10
another. Who followed him in its oc-
cupancy is not known but it has been
in the possession and occupied by
some member of the Swift family since
early in the last century. In late years
some radical changes have been made
in the house but it yet retains many of
its old characteristics.

LONDON, Nov. 23.-Advices from
Mukden say that reports of the death

Chinese coming from the Japanese
camps.
First Lieutenant Schupkoff, who has
just arrived from Port Arthur, reports
that the Russians have laid out three

good spirits. Lieutenant SchupkOff be-
lieves that the fortress can hold out at
least until the end of January.
The japanese lost 500 men in the at
lacks on Zandagan of Nov. IT and IS
and were evidently disheartened. When
they renewed the attack Nov. 10 the
japanese sent out several battalions
from Double bumped hill, but their
movements lacked decision. The Rus
slams opened fire from Poutiloff lone
Tree hill and neighboring eminence.
Several shells burst in the midst of the
advancing Japanese column and quick

tried turning operation at Chanlind-
