HYPNOTISM
IS ALLEGED
Alienation Case on Trial at
Burlington.
OFFENSE OF MCMAHON
Claimed That He Made Mrs.
King Believe Anything He
Told Her.

Burlington, April l6 With an open
ing statement to the effect that the de-
fendant claimed to possess a supernat
ural power and worked upon the relig
ious nature of Mrs King, thereby gain
ing complete control OF her. the case
of CT King against DR. p II McMahon
was begun in county court today. 1t
is brought to recover damages of $40,
900 for the alienation of Mrs Kings
affection.
In his opening statement Attorney
Ballard claimed that DR. Mcmahon
while acting as physician at the
King home, claimed to have power
from God that he and Mrs King we're
created for each other and that they
should have son who would possess
supernatural power and who would be
a priest, then bishop, then cardinal
and finally pope. 1t was alleged
that DR. Mcmahon would put Mrs King
to sleep, 90 away and leave her and
that she would no. awaken until he re-
turned
DR. Mcmahon was the first witness
called, Various written documents
we're shown him and he was asked If
they were in his handwriting, but he
declined to answer on the ground that
his counsel had advised him thus.
Some discussion followed and theques
ton OF whether he must give his real
reason for not answering will be ar
gued before the court.
A mass OF letters was exhibited in
court hut none of these were read.
They will be introduced la er as evil
dence, and are alleged to contain sen
Sational statements.

DUGWAY DANGEROUS
High Water of Sunday Threatened Second
Land Slide.

Pownal, April TO- BY reason Of the
high water caused by the severe rain
OF Sunday, the dugway road between
Pownal aod Wi Jamestown about three
quarters of a mile from the state line
caved in badly at one point Sunday
noon. AT the place where the worst
break occurred the roadbed is about
10 feet above the normal height OF the
river. The protecting fence was car
ried away for several rods and at one
place nearly half Of the roadbed went
into the river. BY driving up onto the
bank it was possible to get by but
should any more of the bank go the
road will be impossible.
A few rods beyond the worst break
are the well known weeping rocks. -
At this point the roadbed was not
more than three feet above the river
Yesterday Here too. there we're great
cracks in the earth taking in about one
third OF the roadbed for several yards
but the earth has not yet made any
further movement into the river.
II was at this same point where the
great slide occurred two years ago
this spring. Since that time there has
been no high water equalling that of
Sunday, nor any long continued rain
before the ground was settled.
The road commissioners began work
there today.

Obituary

On the morning of March %, 1906,
after long life spent in doing good
and endearing her to all, Mrs Char
lotte Conkey passed away aged so
years, four months and five days. She
leaves two daughters, Mrs Isaac How
ard of Fair Haven and Mrs Jay Wy
man of SYNDICATE. Her husband died
IL years ago and since that time she
lived in her home ia Sandgate. A
grandson, an invalid, has lived with
her and she has cared for him until
within two weeks of her death. Much
sympathy is felt for him in his loss.
All the neighbors and friends mourn
for her as for their own. She always
had kind word for ALL even the
school children who called on Grandma
Conkey every day will miss her cheer
full greetings. None knew her but to
love her. May her life be an example
for many to initiate and may we meet
her in home where we will never have
to say good bye,
