GRUESOME EVIDENCE IN SCHUTTE’S TRIAL Skull and Bones Exhibited as State Closes Its Case Middletown, Oct. 13.—Introduction of evidence by the state in the prosecu- tion of Emil Schutte indicted for the murder of Joseph, Mary and Jacob Ball by the use of gun and arson, was concluded at noon today. The evidence with which the state closed was an amplification of that -of- fered late yesterday when a box con- taining a number of bones was opened in the courtroom and exhibits taken out which the state offered. A skull and several hones were examined and state witnesses claimed marks on them were caused by ha.rd objects projected with force. Several leaden pellets were shown and made exhibits. These had been sift- ed’ out of the ‘dust which was in the boxes which had been exhumed from the graves, Superintendent Robert T. Hurley of the state police was recalled to de- scribe the condition of the bodies of the three members of the Ball family when he exhumed what was left of them in graves in Potter’s Field, Had- dam. Philip Arnold was recalled and said that while the boxes containing the bodjes were in his barn the lock on the door was not molested. Mrs. Arnold} said the key to the barn door was in her possession except when twice ‘she gave it to the state police. Amos Dickérman of New Haven was called as an’ expert on arms and am- munition, for the state. He was shown a revolver taken from the ruins and said it was of 32 calibre and the five shells in~the chambers had been explod- ed by other than force of hammer, more likely by heat or fire. He was shown a shotgun alleged by the state to have been found in the ruins. He sald it was of 12 gauge. Eleven pellets shown to him, he said, were buckshot, and they had struck an object, He' determined that they were out of round and dented. He was shown three wads and said’ these had struck an object. To have penetrated a body, the wads, he said, would have been fired at a distance of three feet from the object. .He - identifiedga bullet by weight and measurement as of 38 cali- bre. He believed a repor of a shotgun or rifie would be heard one fourth of a mile away from the place of discharge. Mr. Dickerman was cross-examined by Judge Carlson, counsel for the defense.

Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for ‘“Wyeth's Sage and Sul- phur Cempound.” You will get a large bottle of this old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients, at very little cost, Everybody uses this' preparation now, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly.
