Wood. the man fot whom everybody has been looking for days. He said he had received a package containing two stom- achs on the fifth of August and two jars con- taining milk med on the 4th and Sth of Au- gust. All were properly Iabeled. The stom- achs were labeled “Mr.” and “Mrs.” Borden. ‘The stomachs appeared to be perfectly natural, Mrs. Borden's stomach contained about eleven ounces of solid food; the food was par- tially digested and showed wheat, starch and meat. ‘The contents contained chiefly meat and there were vegetable pulp cells which might ‘bo bread or apples. ‘The digestion seemed to be ad- vanced in the neighborhood of two and a-balf hours--more or less. The stomach was tested for acid, but with a negative result. ‘The stomach of Mr. Borden contained only six ounces, chiefly water. In Mr. Borden's stomach there was on!y a small portion of starch: the digestion in his case, the contents being nearly all water, was much farther ad- vanced than in the case of Mrs. Borden. There wero n few threads of vegetable tissue in his stomach which might have been apple. “Could they have been pe Witness had not analized the milk and could not report on that. “On the 10th of August I received from Dr. Dolan a hatchet, two axes,a blue dross skirt, dress waist, white starched skirt. lounge cover and three small envelopes in which were bair taken from Mr. and Mrs, Borden and bair taken from the hatchet.’ On August 16 witness received « psir of shoes and a pair of black stockings. ‘The hatchet contained » number of suspicious looking spote, but careful examination showed no traces of blood. Every spot which looked like blood was examined but no traces of blood were seen. A big smooch on the blue skirt looked like blood, but was found not to be blood. The white skirt had one spot which looked like blood and was found to be one, and it was di- rectly in front, about #ix inches from the bot- tom. The carpet was blood stained. (This was the sitting room carpet.) And there was blood, of course, on that. There was no blood’ on the lounge cover. The envelo marked “Hair from A. J. Borden” was simply white hair, Mrs. Borden's was dark. The hair on the hatchet was not human hair. [Sensa- tion.] More like that taken from an animal. ‘The spot on the right shoe was not blood and there was no blood on either shoes or stockings. There was nothing on the two axes. Near the edge of the hatchet were spote which seemed to be blood, but were fonnd not to be. “Thero was a spatter on the blade, but it was not blood, and there were spots on the side of the head of the hatchet which looked to me like blood, and I thought they were,” sid witness, “but they were not.” (Hatchet produced, and Lizzie examined it with as much interest as did her counsel. ) One paper was produced by witness, on which was written, “fiair” placed at (time mentioned), but no hair was there, On cross-examination Prof. Wood said the spot looked larger on the outside of the skirt on the inside. ‘The size of the spot was about the size of a pin head. Question. ‘This you say was human blood?” Answer. “idon'tknow. I did not eay so. I have not examined it Question. “Could you tell in what direction this blood came when it struck the skirt? Fr ult to tell the differ- ence in blood, its source, &c. Tho grade was Rot so great ax before science had progressed. Witness said that he knew of no difference in Gigestion in a stout person or a lean one. The amount of gustrie Juice assist digestion always. The stomach showed no appearances of irritation. The witness said he had been in the Borden house and made a cursory examina- tion, taking notes. Q. If one were struck by some sharp instra- ment would thore be any spurting of blood? A. Yes, if an artery was cut. Q And there was an artery cut? A. There was one in the line. Q. In what direction would the blood spurt? A. Tdon't think the cutting of an artery would make any great difference. An artery never spurte over three fect. Q. What artery could be cut by sucha blow— one from the top of the head down? A. T could not say; my knowledge of anatomy is rather old. Those spots, seen at a distance, must have couse from a spattering and not from an arter; came the same as from throwing a stone into a mud puddle. Witness said that if a person stood behind the person assaulted the blood striking the wall paper would be more or less elongated and away from the wound or the point which it had left; and the heaviest part of the stain would be farthest away; {t might be the little end of the spot, but it would contain the largest amount of blood. Witness measured the hatchet and found the handle measured fourteen inches. The fibrin which blood contains“ causes the coagu- lation; witness was uncertain in regard to the exact time a person could be erent etedines turemed we mreat ay rance of t] |. _Inregard to tl i- thon of the murderer witness said that raped red to him that the person stood in the din- Pig room when the first blow was given; this becanse of the spot found on the frame of the dining room door. Here witness was allowed to look at the stain ‘on the door frame under his glass and resuming the stand said it was not blood. A smaller hatchet was banded to witness, but he said he could not examine it in so short a time as was allowed him. He bad spent six or eighPhours on the other one, but he said there was rust on it and rust spots might always be taken for blood until examined. The hatchet was put in his care for full examination, THR MURDERER MUST HAVE BEEN BLOOD- STAINED. Witness said it would be impossible for the aséailant of the murdered ones to escape get- ting blood on his body in some way, and yet the stains on the sitting room door might have gone over the bead of the assailant as the in- strument was lifted. The blood would hit the tasailant from the knees up, and the blood on ‘assailant in the case of ‘Mra.

OFFICER HARRINGTON. Officer Harrington testified that his attention was Gret called to the matter at noon of the day; he was home at dinner, and going down to the house made an ezamina- tion of the ives, In one ‘room he found Miss Lizzie and Miss Alice Russell. Lizzie was cool and collécted, but would not or could not tell witness anything about the mat- » Said she wus in the barn twenty minutes at the time the murder was committed. Witness asked her if it half an hour. “No,” she h wae twenty minutes.” Then witness said, ‘Per- haps it wae but fifteen minutes.” -‘No,” sald Lizzie, ‘it was just twenty minutes.” Then witness cautioned her ut what she might ray, as there was —consider- able excitement and she must be careful. Then witness asked ber about the place in the barn where she was and what, if anything, she heard, and Lizzie answéred that «le had heard noth- ing 1, nor had she seen anybody around. the story of the man who wanted to hire» store of Mr. Borden was told again, but nothing new was elicited from witness in regard to that story. Witness said he looked into the stove which was in the kitchen, and there was something in the fire box which looked like burned paper; the fire was low. Witn then described his ex- amination of the barn. Upstairs and down stairs he found nothing different from what has previously been described; the barn was simply used as a store room. Witness was interrogated particularly as to what Lizzie had told. him about the man who had come to see her tather about the store which he wanted to hire; he was sure that Lizzie told him that her father, althou, fusing the man, had told him to calt in, and fo she did not say he said he would not come again. ‘Adjourned to 2 p. vx, FIRED UPON BY STRIKERS. Switchmen at New Orleaue Attack the Me: Who Took Their Places. New Onieans, Aug. 30.—A strike has been in progress here for some days by the switchmen of the New Orleans and Northeastern railroad, a part of the Queen and Crescent system, grow- ing out of the objection of the men tc the yardmaster, who was from 8t. Louis. The men left work and the yardmaster telegraphed to St. Louis for switchmen to take their places. A party of eleven men arrived here at 9 o'clock last night from St. Louis and went to work at once. At oe m. the men were seated around the yard talking when four of them in a group were suddenly fired upon and all four fell over badly wounded. As far as could be ascer- tained there were a dozen men in the attacki party. One of the wounded men had strengt enough left to draw his revolver and fire, bring- ing down one of the assailants. The other switchman rushed up to the assistance of their wounded brethren and the strikers fled. George Sprague of. the switchmen was fatally wounded and will live only a few hours and W. Rt. Smith, W. R. Maples and J. F. Jones are seriously and probably fatally wounded, James Sexton of the strikers is alvo fatally hurt. > — RISKED LIFE FOR LIBERTY. Unsuccessful Attempt of Three Convicts to Escape From Prison. Jackson, Micu., Aug. 30.—Edward Huntley, ” Detroit burglar; John Davis, burglar from Kalamazoo, and ard, sent from Detroit for six yoars for assault, with attempt to kill, tried to escape this morning from the penitentiary by climb- ing the prison wall. Huntley and Davis were fatally shot and Bullard was captured. August 16, 1491, both Huntley and Davis es- caped by scaling the walls, Huntley was caught in two months and Davis was extradited from Canada, Huntley and Bullard worked on the Withing. ton and Cooley contract, but in diffe ent shops. Davis belongs to the marble eutting contract, a long way from the other two men. ‘The attempt was made at just 7 o'clock and was timed to advantage. The convicts secreted a ladder inside the wall. Keeper Case saw Huntley and Bullard leave the shop. They ran swiftly to the south corner, where Davis joined. them. The thtee convicts placed the Indder against the wall, Davia running up. He threw stones at the guard on the wall as he advanced, and at others who followed inside the yard. Guard Clark fired three times at the men, but missed. His gun then failed to go off. Inside Guard Prangman attempted to pull the ladder down, when Huntley rushed at him with & knife, swearing: “I will cut your d——d heart out, you.” Prangman not being armed e convicts stormed the guard house on the wall inside of which Guard Clark wna, him. Seeing all three jnards coming Huntley started to jumped down outside the wall and ran. By this time Clark had put new cartridges in his gun and began firing again. He struck Huntley twice. wall. cuffed and brought in. ‘On Huntley was found a knife, ground toa keen point an asarazor. Davis also hada similar one. Both were taken to the hos- pital and their wounds ‘The doctors neither will live, juntley at once wired his sister, Mrs. L. A. Tafit of Oak Grove to come on the first train.

Sanatoaa,N. ¥., Aug. 90.—Today's session of the department of education of the Ameri- edn Social Science Association began at 9:30 this morning with a large attendance of in- terested members, Chairman Merrill Edward Gates, prosident of Amberst College, addressed the department, spenking of the effect of the department upon the «ystem of edncation at prosent in vogue in America; the advancement over the old system of imparting knowledge, and the bright future and consiant improve- ment of America’s system of education in her schools, colleges and universities. fre ‘The reports of the secretary were read by Dr. L. F. Brysoff of New York, who also «1 on “Education as a Therapeutic Measure.” An interesting and lucid paper on “Public Libra- ries asa Factor in Edncation” followed, was read by Miss Hewins of the Hartford Library. The succeeding half hour was occu- pied by the reading of ® paper on ‘‘The Edu- ¢ational Value of Modern Economics” by Starr Hoyt Nichols of New York. Perhaps the most interesting paper read was that by Miss Myra B. Martin of New York on “Art Education in American Life.” EDUCATION IX ART. In this Miss Martin spoke of the awakening of the American public in the past two decades to the importance of children’s education and the cultivation’ of a love for the esthetic and beautiful in the mechanical and practical side of life. ‘The _ first movement to incorporgte art education ona sound basis was made in Massachusetts 1n 1870. The philanthropists enabled art to reach but the few. How to rench the masses is the nestion. Children of all classes spend belf their waking hours in the school room; here the refining influences can and do reach them. We know that as a nation we are not trained exthetically, and to hush our conscience we proudly point to our developments in other Tines, There are at lenst three classes who hold con- traty opinions ax to aims and methods of diffusing an art education. First, those who be- lieve in the mechanical side only of manual train- ing; second, those who would develop the artistic element only, and, third, the rapidly increaniny element who believe in bringing mechanical skill and the exthetical together, so that by a combination of the twa studies our artisans THE ers at may be able to enter into sue- cessful competition with the _old world. We, export immense quantities of crude material and buy a small amount of the same material at prices from two to twenty times as great because of the artistic industry employed in making up the raw materials, as shown in the case of textiles, bronzes, &c. The creed of the third class may be translated as “The Aims of Modern Art Education,” viz: ‘The awakening and developing in our people, first, love of beauty, both in nature's and man's works; second, power to put beauty into one’s own work. In conclusion, the essential principles of all ood art are immediately and eT trans- Mabie into the terms of every-day life. The infusion of the genuine art spirit into public education must necessarily be a long, slow process, butas far and as fast as the art spirit does become a reality to the people so far licity and consistency must needs seem desirable in our modes of life—trath, unity and harmony in man’s relations to his neigh- bors. eS Ue ALLEGED CANADIAN COURTESIES.
