Dismissed.

The charge against Oral Poindexter,
the l2-year-old boy of Coburg, was dis
missed for want Of evidence. The boy
proved complete alibi. The Guard
says: There was no evidence intro
duced TO show that there had really
been any poison placed about the
house, excepting at one time when
some vitrol was found In the pump.
The other stun scattered about the
premises, which Mrs. Smith thought
was poison, was only an imitation
substance placed there with an evil
dent intention OF frightening her. In
fact the examination has tended ia
show that there was no intention Ia
kill any member of the Smith family,
but instead an effort was being made
To frighten Mrs. Smith so that she
would leave the ranch. This explains
very clearly why the family prosecutor
did not succeed in poisoning any
members OF the family, as was at first
supposed he was trying TO do.
