While this indictmen in the respects J
mentioned is in truth inartistically !
drawn, yet under the statutes and the
authorities above. stated we cannot
say that it is fatally defective. The
sections of the statute above quoted
show that the legislative intent was
that the courts OF the State should
give interpretations liberal to sustain
rather than rigid to overthrow indie
ments when, as in this case substan-
tial rights of defendants are not ther't-
by prejudced. and as we have from
the outho -ity mentioned seen that
even under the common law TO over
throw this Indictment would seem too
rigid an Interpretation. ....
Under the second head the error
claimed is stated in the brief Of Coun-
sci for defendant as follows:
500 ION the trial Of appellant the de
position of enc Ross. taken at the pre-
..liminary examination was read in
evidence, because he broke jail and
escaped before the trial and his pres
ence could net be procured.
He testified that he and appellant
entered the store Of Alexander Burrell
on the da. named in the Indictment.
stole a Vt Of amalgam Of the value
OF about $1,000, and buried il short
distance from the scene of the crime
I Appellant claims there was no testi-
| mony carroboratiye Of that Of Ross,
, and that conviction could not be
had
In this contention Counsel is. we
think, clearly mistaken. Besides
! minor points Of c0roboration. not nee
! essarv to be mentioned here. the tes-
, tiTnony Of the witness ". ]. Davidson
| corrohorates the, testimony Of The 1c.
conlplice Ross. Davidson testifies that
the defendant requested him David
SOM ito help him rob the store at
/ Edgemont'. that is the store that was
robbed. Davidson further testifas
that thegdefendant told him he wouj
have got the aInalgam if something
had not happened the amalgam wa:
the article stolen in the robbery
Davidson further testifies that the de
PENDANT was trying to dispose Of tn;
amalgam. the thing stolen: and ask
ed Davidson this question: What
am | going to do about that damned
stuff
IF this testimony was true, and it
truth was a question entirely tor thC
jury, there was confederation of the
testimony of the accomDlice Ross.
Defendant fails in sustaining eithe,
of his two points urged in argumen
for the reversal of the Judgment.
The judgment is therefore affirmed

ID ERECT MONUMENT
$fo,ooo MEMORIAL TO PocAHoN. ', TAs IS PLANNED.
Will Be Dedicated at Opening of : Jamestown Expositlon--Movemen Begun by Descendants of Lit tle Indian Maiden.

Washington.-Pocahontas is to have a monument. Her descendants-in- cluding all relatives of the two liar risons, who have been presidents, Gouverneur Morris, the gifted writer; Mrs. Burton Harrison and the large and important Randolph, Cabel and Fairfax families of Virginia, not to mention many less well-known people in New England and other portions of the United States-have decided that the little Indian maiden deserves this recognition and have organized to
 raise $10,000 to that end.
 The monument, which will be dedi. 'cated when the Jamestown exhibition opens, will take the form of simple Indian maiden dressed as Capt. John
 Smith describes Pocahontas and will
 be made by one of the great sculptors.
 On the tablets of the pedestal will be portrayed the principal events in which this plucky child played an heroic part.
 Membership in the Pocahontas me morial association costs $1 and is open to "all patriotic Americans" To be inscribed upon, the rolls one needs only send the fee to Miss Mary Desha (of this city) and receive the hand some membership card bearing the picture of Pocahontas herewith repro duced.
 One hundred and fifty descendants of Pocahontas have joined the society within the past few weeks. ; Charles c. Grover, president the Riggs national bank. Washington, who is himself of Pocahontas line. lends solidity to the undertaking by acting 'as treasurer of the fund.
 Pocahontas married John Rolfe in April. 1914, and it is through the daughter of this marriage that the

Descendants of Pocahontas" base
 their claim to fame as first family.
 The story of how the life of Capt. John Smith was saved by this Indian | girl is familiar to everybody. | After Smith sailed away to England Pocahontas was for several years nev. :er once seen at Jamestown. Then she was suddenly brought in a prisoner by Smiths successor, who had captured her (by barter of a copper kettle), to hold as permanent hostage for the fu- ture good behavior of her father. The scheme was successful, and during the -four remaining years of Powhatan's life absolute peace reigned for the first time in the Virginia colony. Pocahontas meanwhile was kindly treated in captivity, and at the sugges- ton of her new friends, took the name of Rebecca as a substitute for her Indian title. -
 When the Indian girl had been at the colony something less than year she was betrothed to John Rolfe. a prosperous trader of good English family. who appears to have married her more from religious enthusiasm and political ambition than from love- As for Pocahontas, her consent to the marriage was obtained only after she had been told that her hero. Smith. was dead. Powhatan heartily ap- proved of the alliance. Doubtless his avaricious soul gloated greatly over the increased possibility of blankets and grind stones.
 For two years after the marriage the young couple were in Jamestown. Rolfe pursuing his planting The was the first white man to cultivate tobac- co for commercial purposes)-and his bride acquiring. with true Indian quickness. the ways O: English wom- en. That she must have done this to very good purpose is plain from the fact that when, in 1916. her husband took her to England for a visit. her behavior. even fin court circles. was all that could be desired.
 Matoaks is believed to have been the family name of Pocakontas. and many of her descendants today wear it proudly.

.A RAILROAD WIZARD
.. ti. HARTMAN LEADING FIGURE
 IN THE RAILROAD WORLD.
Maonate Known as Man of Surprises Some Things He Has Done
 His Rise from Post of Clerk In Bankers Office.

New YorK.-E. H. Hartman, the central figure in the recent Wall street sensation caused by the declaration of dividends by directors of the Union & Southern Pacific roads, Is a man of many surprises. Almost every act of his that has attracted more than pass ing attention since he appeared on the scene as great railroad magnate has been attended with complete and tn- tense surprise.
 Indeed, Mr. Harriman's activities. as . railroad magnate transforming vast systems from condition of bankrupt cy to affluence, are themselves per haps the greatest surprise of all. It was not until 1900 that Hartman cut any figure in the railroad world.
 The most important railroad posi- tion that he had occupied up to that time was that of vice president of the Illinois Central railroad. This post he held for time prior to the annual meeting of 1889. when he retired to

the Northern Pacific. Great Northern and Burlington systems.
 The securities company subsequent ly was dissolved by decree of the su- preme court of the United States, and the properties fell back to the control of the Hill-Morgan combinar tion. but only after the Hartman in. terests had made many millions out of their connection with the enter prise.
 Hartman seems to have an utter contempt for popular opinion. In manner he is brusQue in tho extyome. He shows intolerance of other peo- ple's opinion, and seems incapable of comprehending that any will but his own should govern in the carrying out of plans which may be under consid- eration. Possessed of remarkable quickness of perception and deter imitation to have his own way, which has brooked no opposition, he has ridden rough.shod over the opinions and feelings of others who believed they had as much right to considera- tion as he. By so doing he has ere ater hatred and enmity to an ex- tent which few men could bear, but he has moved along apparently wholly indifferent to the whole affair.
 MT. Hartman is small man, of slight build, narrow chested and del icate in appearance, but he Is whirl- wind for energy in his work. He keeps busy small army of stenog- raphers. He Is very rapid thinker, and acts as rapidly as he thinks. He never sulks, he never swaggers, and has very few fads, though he is a lover of out-of-doors and insists that his children belong to nearly all of the open air clubs and societies about his country home.
 MT. Hartman is wholly self-made man. His father was a clergyman. and when the son began his active career it was as clerk in brokers office in Wall street. In that vicin- ity his career has been spent. There his great financial battles have been fought and his great financial tri- umphs won. There his latest surprise has been enacted and there his latest financial achievement is being can vassed with all the bitterness of criti- cism which most of his surprises have evoked.

TO DEDICATE MONUMENT.
Illinois Soldiers Will Witness Unveii.
 Ing of Temple at vicksbur9.

Chicago.-In honor of the 36,000 H. linois soldiers who particiated in the campaign and siege of Vicksburg a $200,000 temple-monument will be dedicated in the National park at Vicksburg. on October 25, 26 and 27. The beautiful edifice is now completed with the exception of inserting the bronze tablets which will bear the names of the entire number of sol diers, from drummer boys to generals.
 Elaborate preparations are being made for the dedicatory services by the commission appointed by Gov. Deneen, of which Col. Charles R. E.. Koch of Chicago is secretary. It Is expected that Gov. Deneen, large delegation of Grand Army men, and the entire First regiment of the H. linois national guard will be present at the unveiling.
 Seventy-nine Illinois military or. ganizations were represented before vicksburg. Those from Chicago were:
 First and Third Board of Trade regi- ments; Seventy-second and One Hun dred and Thirteenth Illinois infantry; Chicago Mercantile battery; Taylor's Chicago battery; Rumsey's Chicago battery; Woods Chicago battery;
