WAIVED EXAMINATION.
kinch Mullins, the Murderer of Tony
Staffinger, Held Without Bail.

Kinch Mullins, who shot Tony
Staffinger the bartender at the Grand
Central, September goth, was taken
into the sheriff's office this morning
at 1920 for a preliminary examina-
tion. He waived examination and was
held without bail to await the action
of the. grand jury. Judge Peacock
said: "Mr. Mullins, you are charged
with the murder of Tony Statinger
on the morning of the goth day of
September. The law provides that
you can demand a hearing, or you
have the right of waiving examina-
ton" He very promptly said, 81 will
waive examination.,' "All right, that's
all there is to it," replied Judge Pea
cock. The judge asked him what was
his real name. and he said Kinch
Mullins, that is all. There were about

very nervous. He snapped his eyes
at the spectators, and when Charles

after he committed the dastardly
deed, came into the room. he looked
straight at him. He did not lose any
time in getting back into the Jail as
he evidently feels more secure be-

About Admitting Slang Words.

The admission into the dictionary
of the word "chesty"-the coinage of
which is attributed to ex-Chief De-
very of New York, and which has be-
come somewhat famous despite its
Infamous originals raised an int
eresting discussion, says the Pater-
son Press. The question is whether
slang" expressions, while they re-
main merely temporary colloquial-
isms, should be recognized by lexi-
cographers. The argument is gener-
ally in the Affirmative. Several die
tionary makers who have been con-
suited take the ground that such
works are not standards of good u.s.
age in literary matters, but rather
the reflections of such usage. And
high authorities in the world of let
ters sustain this view. holding that
great many of the words now rec
ognized as legitimate and used by
the best writer's were originally but
slang expressions" On this point,
Prof Thomas R. Lounbury, of the de-
partment of English literature in
Yale university, says with regard to
the propriety of dictionaries using
these slang words:
81 think it is a perfectly good thing
| to do So Slang is simply an at
tempt on the part of the users of
| language to get stronger or more
expressive word for some particular
idea than the ordinary means sup
plies. A vast amount of slang is ut
| terly worthless. and goes out of use
as soon as it has lived it's little day.
But a great deal of our language has
come from slang. All such words as
banter, mob, humbug, bore, sham
dude, were slang. A vast number OF
| words propose themselves as candi
dates for admission to a language
but mighty few get in until the word
more highly educated classes anG
comes into literary use. Dictionarie:
cannot force words into circulation
They can quote them and explain
| their meaning. Nobody but specia
| students read dictionaries, others oc
casionally consult such works Bur
the people read works of fiction ant
general literature. and if an author
who is very popularity read uses q
slang expression, and others, whc
follow him, copy it, he may bring
that word into use and it may in
time become classic. Perhaps onl,
one slang word in one hundred is
| saved for future generation, ant
they are only such as appeal to the
popular sense as filling want"
This view is substantially concur
red in by Edmund c. Stedman, a
| writer of the purest taste, who says;
| '1 suppose that three-fourths o
the conversational words of the Eng
lish dictionary were originally col
loquial,' if not slang. I remember
once writing that a feature of the
language is that the solecisms OF
one generation are classicisms o.
the next Of course this is an ex-
+! aggeration, to make the point. Eng
| lish is expanding yearly, and may be
| come the universal language by alb
SOrptiOn of other tongues: and now
and then some slang word, created
| by the people, is so racy that it is
] bound to get into the dictionaries,
| and it well deserves to do so.''
. In fine. these authorities hold that
| what is called the English language
| is the growth of gradual accretioE,
which is perfectly true. 1t has sim
ply been a question of survival of
the fittest''

FEDERAL JURY ACQUITS
MORROW AND BARRETT
Judge Adams Sustains Demurrer to
the Evidence

st. Louis, Mo-: w. A. Morrow, con.
fldential clerk to Governor A. M. Dock
cry, and Thomas e. Barrett, former
Marshal of the st. Louis Court Of APP
peals, were Wednesday declared not
guilty of the charge of conspiriRg
against the Government to place in
the hands of aliens fraudulent certlf-
Gates of citizenship.
At the end of the Governments case
F. w. Lehman and Judge Chester H.
Krum, attorneys for the defendants,
filed a demurrer to the evidence.
Judge Adams, after hearing argu.
ments, in an opinion in which he fully
reviewed the case held that the Gov
eminent had not adduced sufficient
evidence to convict the defendants Of
the charge, and instructed the jury
to return verdict in accordance with
the opinion.
The jury, without leaving the jury
box, handed in a verdict Of not guilty.
District Attorney Dyer, immediate
ly after delivery of the opinion by
Judge Adams, stated that, in view Of
the expressions of the court, he would
nolle pros. the nine indictments
against the defendants charging them
with aiding and abetting in putting
aliens in the possession of false nat
uralization papers for the purpose Of
registering and voting.
This action completely clears Nor
row Of all charges against him, but
leaves Barrett convicted of aiding and
abettlng in illegally naturalizing ten
Italians, of which charge he was found
guilty jointly with John P. Dolan and
Frank Garrett on November IA.
