CHANGES HURT BY
BIBLE QUOTATION
G ,n1Idate For Postmaster Has
OIspleased Burleson

Washington, June II Samuel B
Payne. a candidate for the St Louis
postmastership, heard that Postmas-
ter general Burleson is religiously in
clined, so, when he wanted to make
an engagement with that official to
present his claim in person, he tele
graphed a quotation from the Second
Epistle of st. John. which reads:
Having many things to write unto
you, would not write with paper
and ink; but trust to come unto
you, and speak face TO face, that our
JOY may be full
Burleson thinks the message is
sacrilegious and Payne's chances for
landing the position not as good as
they were.

This complaint amused the mem

M0Onsoeket, r. T.. June II In.
specl0r Sutton Of the local police de-
partment declares he Is positive that
Henry Discovers. who was found
guilty Of numbering Angelo Parmen-
tier. did not KIN the woman whose
headless. weighted body was found
floating In the Blackstone river. He
further states that the murdered
woman was not Mrs. Parmeniier.

days before the crime was commit
ted II was Sutton who arrested
Discovers
As the result OF this assertion by
Sutton, II is thought likely that an
other inquiry will be made and that
Discovers may be granted new
trial Under the law the only SEN
tence he can receive is Imprisonment
for life.
Sutton says he knows the name of
the man who probably killed the
woman whose body was found floating
In the river and he also says he knows
the name OF the woman who was MUIR
dered The head OF the woman was
never found and the identification"
was made only from a bundle OF
clothes found in the river.
Il know DISCOVERS did not murder
the woman, despite the fact that he
has been convicted by a jury" said
sutton Il think II some inquiries
were made about man who left
Woonsocket ON June II OF last year.
several days after his wife disap-
peared. that we would know more
about the murder mystery than we
know at the present time"
When asked why he did not express
this opinion when he was on the wit
ness stand as government witness
in the Discovers trial. Sutton replied
that he simply answered the ques-
tons that we're put to him.
Sutton is not alone in his belief that
the woman murdered was not Angelo
Parmentier The majority of the peo
pie in the Franco Belgian colony OF
Woonsocket feel the same way
They point out that although the
examiners testified that there
was only one mark on the body taken
from the water, the mother of Angelo
Parmentier, in her deposition made In
the presence Of the American consul
at Roubaix, France. stated that there
were a number OF scars and burns on
her daughters body. These marks
were not found on the corpse taken
from the Blackstone last June
Another significant thing is that al
though DR.. Meyers, in his official re-
port. stated that the hands Of the
woman were In fine con-
dition, Angelo Parmentier's mother.
In her deposition, states that the lit
lie finger of her daughters left hand
was shrunken and cut.
The majority of the Franco Bel
gians OF Woonsocket predict that the
Parmentier woman will be heard from |
some day.
