COUGHING IN THEATERS
BLAMED ON ACTORS

LONDON. Nav 5.-The principal cause
Of coughing in theaters has been explain
ed on scientific lines by a Harley street
specialist.
People in theaters,'' he said, do not
cough because they want -. They
cough because the actors do aot speak
loudly enough and because they cannot
hear. Two nerves connect th,. tympan-

throat. with the result that il the ears
are strained, through. say. an actor 5

Cyclopedia OF Law and Procedure
(Cyc) vol. 6, page 1879; and authori-
ties there mentioned.
While this Indictment, in the respects
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 there
by prejudiced: and as We have from
the authority 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:
'On the trial Of appellant the de
position OF one 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 not be procured.
He testified that he and appellant
entered the store Of Alexander Burrel
On the day named in the Indictment,
stole q lot of amalgam of the value
OF about S2400, and buried it short
distance from the scene of the crime
Appellant claims there was no testi-
m0ny corroboratiye of that Of Ross,
aud that a conviction could not be
had"
In this contention Counsel is. we
tnirll, clearly mistaken. Besides
minor points of cOrobOratiOn, not nee
essarv to be mentioned here, the tes-
timCnv of the witness w. J. Davidson
cOrrOborates the testimony of the &c
complete Ross Davidson testifies that
the defendant requested him David
SOM TO help him rob the store al
EdgemOnt". that is the store that was
! robbed. Davidson further testifias
| that the defendant told him he would
! have got the amalgam if something
| had not happened'-the amalgam was
| the article stolen in the robbery
| Davidson further testifies that the de
! PENDANT was trying to dispose of the
| amalgam. the thing stolen: and ask
! ed Davidson this question: What
am | going to do about that damne,
! stuff
If this testimony was true, and it
truth was a question entirely tor thu
| jury there was confederation of the
! testimony of the accomplice Ross.
Defendant fails in sustaining eithe
OF his two points urged in argumen
for the reversal of the judgment.
The judgment is therefore affirmed
