DID SHE KILL HER OWN SON? .
It Is Alleged That She Minder-ed Him to
1 Get Insurance on His Life and Die-
omboweled the Body to
Hide Her Crime.
TRENTON, Aug. 8. —In the Mercer county
court Tuesday the trial of Mrs. Mat-tie
Shaun of Princeton will begin. She is
charged with murdering her son, John
‘Shann, by poisoning him, to secure the
‘ money for. which his life was insured.
JOhn died April 18 at his mother’ s house.
The next evening Mrs. Shaun was notified
by the insurance company, through its
agent, that the company intended to have
a_ post mortem examination made in order
to ascertain the cause Of death. Soon after
midnight that night, according to Mrs.
Shaun, three strange men came to her‘
house and asked to see the body. ' While
one occupied her attention the other two
went into the room where the body lay and
remained half an hour.
The Body Disamboweled.
When the three men left the house, John
Van Salons, 11 boarder, entered the room
and discovered that the body had been dis-
emboweled. Mabel Shaun, a 17-year-old
girl, slept' 1n the room with the corpse, but
knew nothing of the visit of the strangers.

ficiais led to auinquest, and Coroner Cou-
tier’s jury found that John Shaun died of
mercurial poisoning. Mattie Shaun was
arrested and indicted by the grand jury in
May. Ex~Senator George 0. Vanderbilt
volunteered to defend Mrs. Shaun. Mr.
,1 Vanderbilt will be assisted by Woodbury
D Holt, Chauncey H. Beasley and Francis
B Lee. County Prosecutor Stockton and
his assistant, W. Holt Apgar, will repre
sent one state.
‘The case will be tried before Supreme
Court Justice Leon Abbott, ex-goveruor
of the state, the law requiring murder
trials to be made before asu reme court
judge. Law Judge Robert S.
and Lay Judges “Tiliiam S. Yard and J o-
siah inight will sit with Justice Abbett.
The trial is expected to take two weeks.
' The state has summoned 44 witnesses, and
much of the teatimOuy'will be from expert
witnesses relative to the action of mercu-
rial poisons. ,
Princeton Students Victimlzed.
Dr. Bergen, who attended J ohu‘ Shaun,
testified before the corner that he had
given Mrs Shaun tablets cOntainiug such
poisons for use as disinfectants. Public
opinion here is about evenly divided as to
the guilt or innocence of the accused, but
at Princeton, where Mrs. Shaun lived, it is
largely against her, mainly because of her
past life.
Mrs. Shauu’ s- husband died- under sus-
picious circumstances, and the older son’s
wife died'at Rocky Hill-aftershefhad been
visited by her mother‘iu-law.-~ Then there
are stories told of blackmailing schemes
worked on Princeton college students, and
another by which Mrs. Shaun victimized a
man named Bergen of $2, 000 under threats
of exposing him.

A VERDICT or GUILT-T.
Ducret and Norton Convicted'of Having
Forged Documents Alleged to Have
Been Stolen From the British Embassy.
PARIS, Aug. 8 —-The jury in the case of,
Ducret and Norton has returned a verdict
of guilty against both of the defendants.
N ortou, who is a mulat 00, was indicted for
forging the- documents that created such
a great sensation in the chamber of depu-
ties when read by M. Millevoye. a Boulan‘
gist member. These documents, which it
Lord Duiferiu, the British ambassador,
purported to show that certain Frenchmen
high in official life hadsold state secrets to
the British government, their alleged acts,
if true, constituting treason.
M. Ducret, who is the editor of the Bon-
laugist Organ, The Cocarde, was charged
with complicity in the forgeries. The trial
began Saturday, and the evidence clearly
showed that the papers in question were
clumsy forgeries. Norton confessed that
he had forged them and implicated Ducret.
- The jury was but a short time in arriving
at a verdict, and the court at once sens
tenced' Norton to three years! imprison-
ment. Ducret was sentenced for one year.

LONDON, Aug. 8'—Just before leaving
town for a holiday on F riday, Lord Rose-

Waterloo. ” .
Now that the crisis has passed, the facts
about the momentous two days of the 28th

Englishmen are learning with genuine
alarm how sleuder' is the thread by which
the sword-is suspended over Europe.

OTTAWA, Aug. 8.—A large poster in
a store window here causes much 'com-
meat. It is a notice signed by Recruiting
Officer Lieutenant Archer W. Yates" Of
Ogdensburg, N. Y., holding out strong
inducements for recruits to join the
United States army. A Conservative'paper
says: “That such a poster should be dis-
played in a Canadian city is most extraor-
dinary and a brazen piece of effroutery.
The poster ought to be hauled down.”
An Audience With the Pope.
ROME, Aug. 8.—The Very Rev. T. Bou-
quillon, D.'D., professor of moral theology

25.1.: .
New YORK, Aug. 8.4Aeti11g on the sug-
gestion of Garrett P. S‘e'rtms, the astron—
smoked glass“ 1n hand, to takgllt look at the
spots on the sun, which, the scleii’tists say,
indicate irruptiou of fire so immense as to
be immeasurable to the understanding of
human beings.
To the inexperienced eye the sun pre-'
sented no strange phenomena, but to the
student Of astronomy and meteorology the
heavenly light was a most interesting
study, for the atmospheric disturbances Of
the past 24 hours, the magnificent auroral
display of Sunday night the windstorm,
the clarifying of the atmosphere and the
almost abrupt falling of, the temperature
action going on in the Sun.
How Old Sol Looks;
Says Astronomer Serviss: “The sun’s
face presented a most extraordinary ap-
pearance through the telescope. A stu-
pendous group of black splits was'on the
meridian of the disk, and thereflvvere 12
smaller groups at the same time. The
large group was in the southern half of the
sun and is probably the reappearance of
the large ‘spot’ seen at previous times.
“It showed two main centers of activity,
and the area of the solar surface covered
by it was not less than 3 000, 000, 000 square
miles. The western nucleus of the group
presented a vaSt circular p00,] the center
of it as black as ink. This black center
was not less than 14, 000 miles, and if you
7, 000 miles thick you will be able to al-
most comprehend this statement. 2 _
“The outlines of this black center were
"across it. One of these, nOt less than 10, 000
miles long, was split from end to end,
while another curving line of flame ran in.
and across the pit to join it. The eastern
nucleus 1 was still larger and showed a
marvelous mass of black chasms, crossed
and divided in every direction by blazing
tongues and bridges.
« Tremendous Forces at \Vork.
“Between the .two nuclei the surface of
the sun for a space many times as large as: .
the whole face of the earth was punctured
by innumerable small holes and ridges;
with shining mountains of fire. Amund-
the edges of the great group eruptions of
metallic vapor were evidently taking place, ~
' lifting masses of blazing matter to the
height of many thousand miles.
“Changes in the spots showed that the
most tremendous forces were at work,
reading the fiery shell of the sun' asunder
and bringing up from the unimaginable
furnace beneath immense quantities of vs“.
porized elements to be partially cooled by
contact with the cold of surrounding
space.”
Mr. Serviss thinks it probable that this
group of spots—much larger than usually
seen—is situated at or near the place on
the sun where the huge Spot Of February,
1892, appeared, and which was accompao
nied by a widespread magnetic storm and
a gorgeous red aurora. This' Is precisely
the sort of “sun spot” which the astr0n0~
mers say produces magnetic storms. j
