A PRIZE-FIGHT RULING
SUPREME COURT AFFIRMs DEFINI-
TION IN DICTIONARIES.
The Opinion Tells What Constitutes q
Fight Under the Law-TwO Courts
Reversed.

The Supreme Court yesterday defined the
term prize fight" holding that the mean
ing is that in common use. such as is given
in the Century and Webster dictionaries.
The opinion reversed the Sullivan Circuit
Court, which sustained Robert Patton's
motion to quash an Indictment against him
which charged that he engaged as prin-
cipal with William Dickerson in a fight
with fists for a wager, the amount of which
was unknown to the prosecuting attorney.
The opinion defines a prize fight as fol-
lows:
Prize fight Is a phrase of common use,
and it's employment indicates what is
meant as clearly and distinctly as other
English terms. When it is said that one,
In pursuance of a previous arrangement
and appointment, with another did unlaw-
fully engage as principal in a fight with
that other, with their fists, for a wager,
there is, by one of ordinary understanSing,
no installing the nature of the act. Such
an act is at once understood to mean a
pugilistic encounter for a prize or wager
The court holds that the facts set out
constitute a prize fight, and says:
when a public offense has been de-
clared by statute, and punishment fixed
therefor, without definition, as now well
established may be done in this State, the
courts will resort to the common law, and
the general import of the language used, to
determine the sufficiency of the charge

TWO COURTS REVERSED.
The Supreme Court reversed the decision
of the Appellate Court and also the de-
cision of the Elkhart Circuit Court, which
the Appellate Court affirmed. in the case
OF the Nappanee Canning Company
against Reid, Murdoch & Co. The APP
| pellate Court decided the case on the the
DRY that it is fraudulent for directors of a
corporation to execute a deed of trust pre-
ferring themselves as creditors over out
siders. The Supreme Court holds that a
director is not a trustee Of creditors, but
is merely the representative of the stock
holders. The Supreme Court holds hat a
corporation in embarrassed or railing cir
cumstances has a right to prefer debts due
to its directors. or for which they are liza
bic as indorsers, surities or otherwise. The
Judgment OF the lower court that Reid,
Murdoch & Co. recover 81. 100 is affirmed.
The canning company failed to furnish the
Chicago firm 1000 cases of tomatoes accord
ing to contract. The company became in
solvent and the directors caused a deed of
trust to be executed to a trustee. An at
tempt was made to set the trust aside as
fraudulent.
The Appellate Court reversed the de-
cision of the Hsncock Circuit Court, sus-
tanning a peremptory injunction in favor
of the indianapolis Street-railway Compan
In a suit against that company brought
by Asher p. Howard and wife, who were
Injured by a street car in Irvington. n
court holds that the question was for the
jury and the binding instruction ought not

Old Grimes, Jr.

"Old Grimes Is dead, that good old man,
We ne'er shall see him more
Until some mighty trust shall buy
That far-off Golden Shore"
He was as honest as the sun,
And all his bills did pay,
So consequently had TO wear
His winter suit in May.
He paid good wages to his men:
He must have been insane:
He lived a simple. quiet life
And never did complain.
He helped The widow in her need,
His name the orphans knew;
He had but one new hat a year,
And boots he had but two
His life was like a summer day;
He always wore a smile:
IT'S sad 10 think he lived I'm vain
Who might have lived In style.
Yes. he Is gone, good old man Grimes,
We ne'er shall see him more;
He was so far behind the times
He should have died before.

EUROPEAN UNIVERSITY SONGS


The conspicuous scarcity Of char
acteristic songs in British as COM
pared with German uniyersities is
probably due TO other causes besides
the relative Indifference to musical
culture of British youth as a whole,
says the London Globe. The under
graduate Of Oxford or Cambridge
does not take himself with that pro-
digious seriousness which character
ICES the student Of Bonn or Jena.
and is not naturally inclined to re-
gard his university career as q sep
arate idyllic phase of existence de-
serving of reverent and enthusias-
tic lyrical treatment. His general
athletic bias makes him regard "mu-
steal men" of a serious cast as a class
apart, whose proselytes are fortu-
nately few, while on the occasions
when his triumphant soul seeks re-
lief in more or less melodious out
pourings, he Is apt to find the sim
pie directness of the latest Anglo
American musical comedy fits his
needs quite fully. For these different
reasons, such an attempt as has once
more been made recently to provide
English university men with a song
book after the German pattern is not
very likely TO succeed. There IS
neither an adequate demand nor
suitable supply. In Germany there
exists great mass of student songs.
because for generations the taste Of
the students has run In that direc-
tion. In England there are hardly
any songs that have q special suita-
bility for university life at all, and
any selections made from songs at
large is arbitrary and carries little

INK AS A SOUVENIR.



This story comes from Canada. 1t
Is told Of Canadian schoolgirls after
the visit Of the duke and duchess Of
York. 1t is probable that some one
this side OF the border could match it
with tale anent Prince Henry's flying
trip, says the Chicago Post. In the
scramble for souvenirs Of the royal
visit some things happened whiea
ought not TO be repeated on a future
occasion. at Niagara, after the de-
parture Of the duke and duchess. there
was a hunt for pins. which might or
might not have had tfe honor Of being
worn by royalty. IN Toronto some
overenthusiastie young persons filed
their pockets with pebbles from a
gravel road over which the royal pair
had driven. Bnt the less to be admired
was the action Of a school-teacher
whose classroom was visited by the
duchess. Her royal highness gracious
~ wrote her name in the school regis
ter. After her departure the teacher
passed around the ink bottle in order
that each pupil might dip a finger in
the ink into which a princess had
dipped Q pen.
