The Rigor Case in the Court of APP
peals.-Mr. James j. Lindsay, of the firm Of
Boarman & Lindsay, was in Annapolis this
week looking after the case of Roland B. Rigor,
of Baltimore county, in connection with Mr..
Lewis Hockheimer, while Attorney General
Bryan and Mr.. A. s. j. Owens represent the
State. This case went up to that court on a
writ of error from the Criminal Court of Balti-
more, filed by the attorneys for Rigorr. on the
ground that he could not be taken from the
Maryland penitentiary, where he is confined
under sentence of the Baltimore county court,
and be tried for attempting to kill one of the
deputy wardens of the Baltimore city Jail while
awaiting bis trial in the county. Judge Wright
ruled that he had jurisdiction to try Rigor and
found him guilty and sentenced him to nine
years in the penitentiary to commence at the
expiration of the sentence imposed by the Bal
timore county conrt, hence the writ of error.
which is somewhat in the nature of an appeal.
Emptying the Big Lake in the Park
The Baltimore 4mericdn says the task of emp
tying the large lake in Druid Hill Park is, pro-
ceeding as rapidly as possible and has been
going on for a week, with the result that the
sand bars in the northwestern part of the lake
are beginning to emerge. The lake. however,
contains millions of gallons of water and it
will be some time before it is entirely emptied,
as it has depth of IS feet in the center. 1t is
being emptied because of the recent finding of
the dead body of man in it. When the bot
tom of the lake is reached then will come the
problem of the disposal of the thousands Of
fish, some very large, which are in it. If left
in the lake these fish will die. Some of them
are carp two or three feet in length. When the
water is entirely out the lake will be refilled
with pure water.
The "Corn Special Has an Exciting In
cident-The first stop of the Corn Special
train over the Western Maryland Railroad on
Friday of last week was made at Owings' Mills
and while it remained there an exciting Incl
dent occurred. A woman attempted to cross
the track behind the special and wasin danger
of being run down by the express which was
passing on the other track. The shouts of the
train crew to warn the woman alarmed the
audience in the car attending the lecture, and,
believing that a collision was imminent, the
audience rose and panic seemed inevitable,
especially as those at the extremities of the car
got out rapidly. Mr.. G. Bosley Littig, how
ever, averted trouble by commanding every
one to sit down, and the express rolling by
soon treasured the crowd
