jury box.
The proceedings were opened when the judge

the iniquity OF the prisoner in various ways, while
the judge chuckled behind mountain of lawbooks.

I believe that with determined effort

of my friends. in a community that have
tried to serve, an autocratic decree has
gone forth from political headquarters
that my overthrow must be accomplished,

defeat. =

TRIAL OF FRED. MILLER.
1t Will Take Place Some Time Next
Month.

Month.
Fred T. Miller, the young horsemap VINO
was indicted several months ago for con-
Quoting bookmaking at the Benning race
track last December, today pleaded not
guilty The trial of the case was not set
down for any particular day. and 1t Is
understood that Miller will not be tried
until some time next month. The delay In
the case is due to the fact that Miller de-
INJURED to the Indictment. on the ground
that it charged no offense. Judge Cole
however, overruled the demurrer, holding
that bookmaking is illegal in every sec
ton of the District; and. on Miller's ap-
peal to the Court of Appeals, that court
sustained Judge Coles view of the law
Miller claims that he was prompted to
test the law by the Washington Jockey
Club the owners of the Benning track,
and expects, in the event of conviction,
that a fine only will be imposed, which he
expects the club to pay for him. There are
two counts in the Indictment, however. the
penalty for one of which. setting up
gaming table, is imprisonment for not
more than five years, and for the other
conducting bookmaking. a fine of not more
than $500, or Imprisonment not exceeding
ninety days, or both. AS the Benning
track is more than one mile beyond the
city limits, 1t Is understood that con-
viction will be asked for on the first count

Shot His Sisters Betrnyer.

When Loretta Hannigan, a pretty girl
CT nineteen years, died last March in New
York at the home of her parents, under
distressing circumstances, David F. Han
nigau, a plumber, the brother of the dead
girl vowed that he would avenge his sis
ters honor by killing her alleged seducer,
Solomon II. Mann, the manager of the 5th
avenue tailoring establishment in which
also the girl was employed Hannigan was
as good as his word, for Thursday just
after 6 o'clock he met Mann on 42d street
and fired two shots at him from a SS-caliber
revolver. One of the bullets hit the mark
so well that it pierced Mann's skull over
the right eye and penetrated the brain.
Although the wounded man was alive when
taken TO the hospital it was not thought
that he could live till morning. Hannigan
was arrested.
