WOULD-BE-SUICIDE
 DIES AT HOSPITAL

Anthony Prapulenes, who tried to commit suicide at his home on River side street last Friday night by cut ting his throat with bread knife, died at the Waterbury hospital this morn ing at II o'clock from the effects of his rash act. Little hope had been ex- pressed for his recovery and it was remarkable that he lived so long, so badly had he gashed his throat with the knife. He leaves a wife. The re- mains were removed to the home of the deceased on Riverside street this afternoon by Bergin S5 Sons, under takers.
 Prapulenes was hit by a pool ball or pool cue in a free Tor all fight in Lithuanian saloon on Bank street about two weeks ago, and was badly injured. Since that time his mind has been unbalanced and he has been act ing queerly. Last Friday he presented himself at the police station and asked to be locked up. His redue~t was sgranted and he remained in the cell until about 9 o'clock that night when his wife and friend went to the po- lice station, and took him home At r o'clock that night while he was sitting in the kitchen of his home and friends were watching him, he Suddenly rush. ed into the pantry and succeeded in badly cutting his throat and neck be fore he was overpowered and the knife taken away from him.

THE SHOOT CASE
Up Again at Washington- Roberts Gives Sensation
 al Testimony.

Washington, April 2O.-The second round in the Reed Shoot contest open ed to-day before the senate commit tee on privileges and elections Brig ham H. Roberts, who was denied a seat in the senate two years ago, was witness and gave some rather start ling testimony. He stated that he had married three times and had children by each of his wives. He said that he married two of his wives without the knowledge of his other wife. He said that from boyhood he had been taught the delightfulness of plural maria ges and he believed this practice to be the law of God. As he believed the law of God to be the highest rule he felt compelled to obey it. He stated that he believed the Woodruff manifesto, forbidding plural marriages, was di- vinely inspired and that in practicing polygamy now he knew that he was disobeying both the law of the land and the law of God. He said that he was doing the best he could under the circumstances at the present, but was not shirking any of the obligations that rested upon him.

MARKS STATEMENT.
Colchester Farmer Says He Paid
 Neighbor $2O to Hill Pavil

New York, April 20.--John Marx, the Colchester farmer, who was arrest ed here last night, charged with the murder of John Pavil, farm hand to-day. said he paid one of his neigh bors, $20 on promise that he would get rid of Pavil. The next day PaVil was found murdered. Marx declared that he himself was absolutely inno- cent of the murder. He said he owed Pavil $50, which he was unable to pay, and he had been much annoyed by the man for a settlement of the bill. Finally one of his neighbors told him that for $20 he would get rid of Payil. Marx said he gave the neighbor the $2O and the next day Pavil was found dead. He then found he had no money left and the neighbor gave him back $1O. Marx gave no explanation as to why he left Colchester.
 When Marx was arraigned in court this morning he told substantially the same story. He was held without bail to await extradition papers from Con- necticut

ANOTHER TERROR
 TO WOMEN.

A "Jaclz the Chaser was much in evidence in the northern section of the city last night. He chased several women and almost frightened the life out of them. The scene of his de- spicable acts was on North Main street, near the plant of the Water bury Manufacturing Co. He hid in dark spot and as the young ladies passed by he rushed out and tried to seize them. He made his first attempt about o'clock. while it was 10:30 o'clock when the second lady was chased. Both women were badly frightened and were almost hysterical. One of them rushed into a nearby drug store. She was much excited and out of breath and it was several minutes before she could explain what had happened Tn the mean time the chaser had made good his es- cape. One of the young ladies lives on Round Hill street.
