was mainly responsible for the home

On Trial For Forgery.

Cleveland, Ohio, June 9.-Charles N.
Cunningham, the man who was ar
rested several months ago for trying to
pass forged check rS7O, 600, bearing
the signature of Judge +. T. Hamil-
ton, is now on trial in the court of
common pleas. The defense plea is
that he is insane, his condition being
due to an injury received by being
thrown from horse in Colorado. To
prove their theory they had the man
sent to hospital where his brain was
examined. The surgeon had testified
that he believed Cunningham insane,
and persons with whom the prisoner
had had dealings corroborated that
testimony. Witnesses will be pro-
duced by the prosecution to prove that
Cunningham was sentenced to state
prison in New York for similar crime
before he ever went to Colorado.
The trial promises to be very inter
esting.

hardest inmate of the state peniten-

and letters, the latter containing Ham
iltons photograph, were Immediately
sent out in the hope that he might be
intercepted,
The escape was daring one) and
must have been cunningly planned.
One of the regular TRUSTEES was sick,
and another prisoner was detailed to
take his place, One of the tasks of the
trusty was to carry out a gigantic box
of ashes and dump it outside of the
wall,
The names of the men who carried
out the box are Kennedy and Merrill.
Some time after the big ash box had
been dumped, Hamilton was missed,
and general escape alarm was then
given.
A search about the grounds revealed
nothing but Hamilton's convict cap, |
lying on the ash dump, and the warden
at once concluded that Hamilton had |
been carried out in the box.

admitted TO the county circuit and SUI
perior court bars, over the protest Oh
Attorney John Beetles of this city. who
protested on the point of constitutions
atty.
The case has been under advisement
for same days, and this ruling is very
important as precedent, as this is
the first time the question of the
legality of woman practicing law
has ever been brought up in the state
of Indiana.
The protest was based on several
sections, of which the principal one
was the requirement of an attorney to
be voter of good standing. Helen
Cougar and other women who are
championing the cause of woman's
rights, have been encouraging Mrs
Wilkie. She argued her own case
splendidly.
