ing about seventy-five lashes with large

knees, their backs being lacerated I'm
many places. the skin being cut In gashes
six or eight inches long"
The night was inclement and. aside
from the whipping, the Pruetts suffered
greatly from exposure.
For this assault j. w. Todd and twen-
y-six others were indicted in the United
States Court for the Northern district OF
Alabama, under section 5.406 (r. 50, the
indictment charging that they did COM
bine. conspire, and confederate together
by force. intimidation and threats, TO In
jure Wiley Pruett and William Pruett.

BALL HALF BACK ENDED.
He Was tho Son of Mr.. James Bahen, of

Football Game In Washington.

WASHINGTON, March 25.-George d..
Bahen, the foot bail player, of the
Georgetown University of Washington,
who was injured last Thanksgiving-Day
in the game between the University and
the Columbia Athletic Club, died shortly
Hospital in this city, whore he has been
receiving medical attention since his in
jury.
Bahen was nineteen years Of age, and
was born in Richmond Va His father ana
mother were at his bedside when ne died.
1t was in the football game between
elevens from the Georgetown University
and the Columbia Athletic Club on
Thanksgiving Day, November 18th last,
that young Bahen received the injuries
which resulted in his death. The play
throughout was characteristic for rough
and harsh exchanges, and a number OF
men on both sides were more or less in
jured and bruised.
PLAYING HALY BACK.
Young Bahen was playing half-back for
Georgetown, and he met with his mishap
I'm the middle Of the first half. Bahen's
play was to interfere with Leete while
Mahoney had the ball, and this he was
doing TO perfection.
Bahen made Il rush. and as he did so
he received blow from a Columbia ad-
berent which feled him TO the ground.
Before he could recover from the shock
and regain his feet he was tramplcd
uron by the excited players, and recoiv-
ed the full force Of numerous kicks.
In the struggle Mahoney had an ankle
sprained, but he stuck manfully to his
post, and was laid up for several days
afterward. Bahen was carried from the
held to the University, whence he was
afterWard removed to the Emergency
Hospital.
on examination it was found that the
fourth vertabra was shattered, and as
result the entire body below that JOINT
became paralyzeG. There were sey raj
bad bruises on several parts Of his body,
and his scalp was torn in several places.
AZ OPERATION PERFORMED.
After helng ir the hospital for some
days the operation Of laminectomy was
performed with such success that the
paralysis was partly removed Ever since
that memorable Thanksgiving-Day the
under student has been Dedrdden, but he
withstood his position with commend
able fortitude, and Christian resignation.
His splendid physical condition served
to prolong his life but he slowly faded
away.
Everything that medical science could
suggest had been done for him up TO the
very last. and together with the kind
Offices of a loving mother, an indulgent
father and attentive nurses, the declining
days of the unfortunate young man were
made as comfortable as his condition
would permit:
Deputy Coroner Glassbrook called at
the hospital as soon as the death was re-
ported to him. In all probability an in
quest will be held tomorrow morning.

In the hearing OF the Taylor case in
the supreme court at Pierre GU the Ind
inst, Taylor's attorneys moved to admit
an affidavit Of exception to the lndict-
ment but the conrt refused to grant the
motion on the ground that the record
on that point had already been made in
the lower court The counsel for the
state resisted the motion on the ground
that when the defense failed TO follow
their demurrer to the indictment 10y a
regular bill Of exceptions they had under
the statute abandoned their right to
such pleadlngs. Attorney Stewart o
up the argument for Taylor and pre-
sented the Ease in IA thorough manner
His con tentions in the main We're that
the offiense Of which his client Is
charged is a statutory one and can only
be punished under the statute providing
the punishment for the same; that the
facts stated IN the indictment do not
constitute al otfense under the general
embezzlement statute, section 1865, com
piled laws; that the indictment, if prop.
erly pleaded, would constitute an offense
under section 1893, compiled laws; that
the indictment Is demurrable, 1t stating
two separate offenses. The facts stated
IN the indictment, he argued, do not con,
stitute a public o~tfense. The judgmen,
of the lower court sentencing the
prisoner for five years exceeds the term
for which be could be legally sentenced
and is erroneous, absolutely void and q
nullity and he asked that the prisoner
be discharged. The indictment, he de-
clared, is defective in that it does no,
show that Tay or's term of office had ex

him for money due the state, o does
