THE MouLTiNG HEN.

This is positively the last fable.
Once there was hen that moulted
a whole month after all the other
hens had moulted.
Why she did this we have no means
of knowing to a certainty. Perhaps
she did so TO be odd. Perhaps she
honestly thought it would be a good
thing to change the moulting season
TO a time later in the fall than the
conventional moulting time. Perhaps
she could not help herself-was

SAY PORTER CHARLTON FLED
TO AFRICA OR TURKEY
Italian Police Claim to Have Positive
Proof That Husband Of Murdered
- Woman 10 Alive.

COMO. Italy. June 1.-THE police
investigating the murder OF Mrs. Mary
Scott Castle-Charlton, the American
woman whose body, stuffed into a
trunk, was drawn from Lake Como a
week ago, declared today that they
had found positive proof that Porter
Charlton, the murdered womans hus-
hand sailed from Genoa on the steamer
Verona on June and that he disem-
barked at Palermo, there taking pas
sage for either Africa or Turkey.
They refused to make publicc their
new evidence, but they insist that 1t
leaves no doubt that Charlton killed
bis wife. Their theory is that Charl-
ton called for New York not believing
that the body OF his wife would be
found. and that when he learned at
Palermo the news of the discovery OF
the trunk he realized the danger Of
continuing on to New York and
changed his course.
II il also stated by the police that
an unassailable alibf has been found
for Constantine Ispolatof. the Russian
suspect, covering both June and
June s, on one of which days II is now
certain Mrs. Charlton was murdered,
and his release within the next "a
hours is expected.
The search by divers CT the bottom
OF Lake. Como was continued today
upon the request of United States
Consul Caughy, despite the statement
OF the authorities that 1t was useless.
I'VE don't want the American state
department to have any ground for
charging MS with indifference In our
attempt TO solve the murder" Pro-
curator Guglia declared today, "and
for this reason we will keep up the
search of the lake."
