INDICTMENT TO
Be QUASHED

The Supreme court today handed down
an opinion sustaining the DEFENDANTS de-
murrer to the indictment in thencase OF
state VS.. Leander A. Worde% and the in
dlctment is remanded to the Superior
court with instructions 10 auash.
THE prosecution was under Section s
% Chapter 80 OF the General Laws. which
provision Is as follows Every person
who shall let my building or tenement
owned by him or under his control. Tor
any OF the purposes enumerated In Sec
tfon 1 OF this chapter. or who shall know
ingly permit any such building or tene-
ment or part thereof. 10 be so used while
under his control. shall be deemed and
taken to be guilty OF aiding In the main
tanning OF such nuisance etc.
Defendant was accused of having on
May 12 1893 at South Kingston leased
building owned by him TO William r. Hol-
broow 20 be used occupied and kept by
IIolbrook for common uisance. Ther,
were three counts In the indictment. IL
admitted by the attorney general that the
Supreme court had never fully passed
upon the questions involved in the de-
murrer'
Judge Dubois writes the opinion OF the
court saying: "It would have been an
easy matter for the legislature TO have
provided for the punishment of the acts
set forth in section aforesaid as substan-
tive offenses If they had seen NJ. But
such is not the meaning and effect OF the
section I'm question.
"It is manifest that the statute does not
contemplate the punishment OF persons
who may offer aid and assistance In the
preparation or establishment OF prospec-
tive nuisances unless they become estab-
llshed facts. The nuisance must be main
talned. that II, &c must be already In op
Grafton before another person can he
deemed guilty Of aiding its keeper IN its
maintenance As the purpose OF the stat
ute Is TO punish persons guilty OF aiding
In the maintenance OF active nuisances IT
is necessary TO aver the existence of thu
same. And under the we'll known rule OF
criminal pleading the averments must be
made I'm clear. direct and not In argu-
mentatve words In this respect each
count OF the indictment is defective"
I'm behalf OF the state" further SAYS
Judge Dubois. 'it Is argued that the mere
letting Of the building by the owner or
person having control thereof for the H.
legal purpose is a msdemeanor whether
the building was or was not used. Nh
question is made Of the cogency OF this
contention, but this Indictment is not
brought to punish the defendant for a
common law misdemeanor but for the
statutory offence Of aiding in the mainte-
nance OF a nuisance"

EVERY TOWN HAS THEM.

If there is anything on earth worse than a husky boy who eats regular at family table three dimes a day and refuses to supply she larder, 1t has not been discov- cred. Yet every town Is afflicted with boys of this kind. They loaf around the streets from morning sill night, save for the time spent sn consuming grub earned by fath- CT and mother, smoking cigar ettes, chewing tobacco, splitting on the sidewalk and making ob- scene remarks concerning women and girls who pass by. They are not worth the powder it would sake to blow them into kingdom come and they never will be us- less they change their ways. They are worse than any of the low animals, for even the hogs hustle out and root for themselves as soon as they discover the fact that they con do it. The boy who loafs while his father tolls deserves at- sention. He should get it in the shape of a moist elm club.

Rate WARS PROBABLE

Inasmuch as under the new rate law,
excursion rates will be open to every
body, instead of to accredited delegates
as formerly, loophole is left for rate
wars between the railroads. Excursion
rates are not affected by the law and
some Of the attorneys hold that the
commission cannot compel a road to
give even three days notice Of excur-
sions.
The ruling on the excursion business
made by the commission is as follows:
Rates for an excursion limited to a
designated period Of more than three
days and not more than thirty days
may be established upon notice Of
three days in place of thirty days. no
tice, otherwise required by the amend
ed sixth section. Rates for an excur-
sion limited to designated period ex-
ceeding thirty days will require the
statutory notice, unless shorter time is
sion.
