ADJOURNMENT OF COURT
SUPERIOR AND CIRCUIT JUDGES BE-
GIN VACATION NEXT SATURDAY..
Progress I'm Dfsposing of Cases
Criminal Docket In
Well Up.

The judges of the Marion county courts
are working hard these days trying TO dis
pose OF as much business as possible before
the summer vacation. The three Superior
Courts and the Circuit Cour will adjourn a
week from to-day-JuIy l. Judge McMaster.
OF Room /. and Judge Carter. Of Room 8,
Will hold adjourned sessions In July for the
purpose Of ~disposing of important receiver
ships Judge McMaster will hold court on
account OF the sale OF the Indianapolis
News. which Is to take place on July L.
Judge Carter will be on the bench July II
to pass on the sale Of the indianapolis &
Broad Ripple Rapid Transit Company.
Judge feathers, Of Room 2, has arranged
TO 60 away for the summer. With Mrs.
feathers he will spend his vacation at Su-
perior, Wis, with relatives. Judge Carter
is planning a fishing trip to the Canada
lakes. He and Judge McMaster went there
last summer and had an enjoyable time. OF
the fishing In that locality Judge Carter re-
marked the other day: Its very fine. Last
summer was the first time N my life that
1 was able to catch as man, bass as /
wanted" Judge McMaster will probably ac-
company Judge Carter on the same trip this
year. Judge Allen, OF the Circuit Court. has
not decided where he will rest during his
vacation. He says that Mrs. Allen has in
formed him that he Is going away from
town.
The judges Of the Circuit and Superior
courts are well pleased with the progress
that has been made during the last term
in their respective judiciaries. In the Cir
cult Court, where the docket Is always very
heavy, it is not thought there will be more
than 300 or 400 cases left at the end of the
term. This Is considered an excellent show
ing. An immens amount Of litigation has
also been disposed Of In the Superior Court
In the last year. The Superior and Circuit
courts Will convene in regular term again
the first Monday in september. The most
important litigation ahead for the Superior
Court Is the suit OF the State against the
Vandalia Railway Company TO recover
money alleged to be due the school fund.
This case is in Room q
Judge Afford. of the Criminal Court. is
particularly elated over the condition of the
docket In his court. He says the Criminal
Court is now nearer up with its work than
ever. He expects to take a, vacation this
summer, which Is an unusual thing for the
judge Of the Criminal Court in this county.
A few days g Judge Afford said that of
all the cases on the docket where arrests
have been made only about fifteen remain
untried- The grand jury, which IS expected
to report to-day, will, Of course, add to this
number. Among the important criminal
Meyers, former superintendent OF the coun-
" asylum, who Is charged with grand
larceny; John o.. Moore, charged with MUIR
der; Maud Goodin, charged with conspiracy,
and John 0. Duncan, who murdered Mrs.
Mary Cole a week ago. Prosecuting Attor-
expects to take up the case against Mrs.
Maud Goodin some time in August.

HARRY C. NIELDs,s HABITS
Aired Before the Commits
siOner Yesterday.

AREA before the Probate COmm1o-
siOner Yesterday.
Probate Commissioner Walker yesterday
heard evidence on the petition filed with
him a few days ago requesting the removal
of Harry c. Nields as administrator of the
estate of his sister, Harriet NJ. Wright, and
as guardian of her two children, Beatrice
and Regina Wright. The petition was
prosecuted by the parents and sisters of
Nields on the ground that he was morally
unfit to have the care of his two nieces.
Commissioner Walker was given to under
stand hat the grandparents Of the chill
dren. Nields's father and mother, desired
to have the little girls live with them.
Nields is a young married man and has
regular employment at the Madden lounge
factory.
A host of witnesses were on hand TO testi-
fy as to the private character Of Nields.
1t was claimed that before his marriage
he lived at home with his parents and sis
ters and hat he abused his mother and was
unkind to his sisters. There was testimony
TO show that the family finally ran him
away from home on account of his conduct.
Nields declared that this was untrue. He
said he left home because his family drank
beer and he was opposed TO Il. The fact
was brought out that yesterday was
NieldS's twenty-fourth birthday ami
versary, and this reminded one Of che wit
nesses that two years ago yesterday, the
twenty-second anniversary OF the young
mans birth, an incident took place in his
home that showed his vicious disposition.
1t appeared that three of his sisters, recall
ing that the day was his birthday, came to
him and playfully proposed s~lapping him on
the back as many times as he was years
old. Nields did not take kindly TO this, the
evidence showed. He figured that IL each
Of his sisters took a hand at the game he
would have to stand sixty-six vigorous
punches in the back. The fun began and
Nields rebelled. The testimony showed that
he became greatly enreged and threw a
pair OF scissors at one OF the young women,
third with his hand. Other witnesses re-
called the occasion of Nields's wedding.
which seems to have been an extensive af-
fair. There was plenty TO drink, and the
testimony was TO the effect that Nields be-
came so badly intoxicated that his wife had
to put him to bed. Some witnesses testified
that on this occasion Nields's mother
yielded to the influences of the Joyous coca
sion and drank several rounds with her
son. Nields admitted TO the court that he
perhaps took a bit too much on that light,
but said he had been very steady in his
habits since then. The probate commits
sioner was informed by witnesses well ac-
quainted with the habits OF the Nields fam
mother to have her bottle OF beer every
wash day. This charge was not denied. but
the commissioner did not feel called on TO
censure the woman en- this account. He
concluded. however, that the children are
doing very well where they are and de-
clined to interfere with Nields in his care of
them.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
COLUMBUS, o., June 23.-For six innings
to-day the Hoosiers met with little success
in trying to land on Bumpus Jones's ben
ders successfully, and one lone single was
all they were able to record. The hot wealth
er was good for both pitchers and the Sena-
tors met with little better success against
Kellum, except in the fourth inning. when,
with two out, a single and two three-bag-
gers gave the locals two runs. There were
not enough men on bases to make the game
real exciting. but the fielding on both sides
was so fast and clean that scarcely an inn
ing went by that some one on either side
was not compelled to doff his cap to the
applause Of the spectators.
Manager Allen played the same faultless
game that marked his work yesterday. and
both Hickey and Stewart accepted every
chance that came their way. and they We're
not all easy ones either. Mcfarland, Flynn
and Hickey were the ones. however. who
won the game for the Hoosiers. The former
found Jones safely two times during the
nine innings and also worked him for a base
on balls. His first hit scored Allen in the
fourth inning, and his base on balls, fol-
lowed by Flynn's sacrifice and Hickey's
single, brought in the winning run in the
ninth. The other run was scored in the
eighth.
After the fourth inning, try as they would,
the Senators were unable to find Kellum's
curves, and two singles, which did no dam
age. were all they could get after the fourth
inning. Pickering. Bierbauer and Gillen all
figured in sensational plays in the field, and
Bierbauer carried of the senatorial honors
with the stick. The fans are fully con-
WINGED that the Hoosiers are the teams
hoodoo this season, for they have won
eight out of nine games played against the
Senators. Score:
