fully, threw her across the track and ran.
Mrs. Lewis was unconscious for few nor

FORGERY no CRIME IN INDIANA.
Omission Of a Definition In New Criminal
Code Leaves No Law In Force.

INDIANAPOLIS, April 2s.-The discovery
was made to-day that forgery has ceased
to be a crime in Indiana, owing TO the omi'-
sion Of its definition in the new criminal
code. which was adopted 10y the recent
Legislature and went into effect Few
days ago The most careful searching
of the printed act fails 70 disclose any def
milton Of the crime Of forgery OF any PEN
alties fixed for It's commission, and 1t Is the
opinion OF many lawyers that inasmuch
as the Criminal Code act contains section
declaring that -all laws within the puryiew
Of this are hereby repealed there is no law
in force by which such a crime can be
punished.
The omission was discovered by the
class in the law college. The omission will
affect persons now under indictment for the
crime. as there is no law under which they
can he tried, the old law ha wing been re-
pealed.
