whether the old man, Dominic Earle,
told the exact truth in his testimony
before the bank officials. Not that he
suspected Earle of having been impli-
Gated in the crime, but he has Won
dered whether Earle might not have
been simply negligent to the extent
OF leaving Crawford in sole possession
Of the valise at some time after they
entered the Office. There is no doubt
that Earle was very anxious to catch
New Jersey ferries, in order to get
home early. He may, in his haste,
have allowed Crawford to go upstairs
with the vaIise accompanied
This would explain how Crawford
found opportunity to open the vaIise
and make substitution of the bogus
for the genuine package. Assuming
that the accompIice was standing at
a turn of the stairs, which are wind
ing and rather dusky, it is perfectly
conceivable that such a change of
packages might have been effected
with scarcely a moments delay.
But consenting that Earle told the
exact truth, he admitted that he lin
gered behind Crawford little in
ascending the stairs, and in so doing
he may have furnished sufficient op-
pOrtunity for the substitution. An
old man going up rather steep stairs
naturally bends his head forward to
relieve the ascent, and in such posi-

man close in front of him even was
doing. The trouble with this theory
is that it supposes the label on the
bogus package to have been forgery.
There Is still another theory sug-
gested by Mr.. PinkertOn to account for
the presence Of the bogus money pack
age in the valise when the two mes
sengers reached the counter of the re-
ceiving department. It is that Craw-
ford's confederate had provided him
self with a second valise, similar in
all respects to the one used by the
bank, and that in this had been placed
the bogus package with a forged label,
making the substitution a matter Of
merely changing valises, which could
have been accomplished in a second.
It has also been suggested that Craw-
ford might have managed the whole
scheme himself, by having prepared
valise like the one he carried daily,
arranged with two compartments in
one of which was placed the genuine
package received from the paying-tel-
Ter at the bank, while out of the other
com artment was taken at the express
Office a bogus package previously
placed there. What makes it the more
reasonable to suppose that Crawford
accomplished the theft single-handed
is the fact that when arrested in Hon
duras the bulk of the stolen money
was found on his person, while It was
known that. in addition to the $50, 900
then recovered, he had previously
spent considerable sums in various
ways. His voyage, for instance, must
have been expensive; and it was found
that he had given at various times to
members of his family sums ranea1a,
from $40 to $50. This would have left
out Of the original $4,000 a very

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful It Is In
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier IN nature. but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same
cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of it the better: it is not a
drug at ALL but simply absorbs the
gases ana impurities always present in
the stomach and 1ntestines and carries
them out Of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking. drinking or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, it whftens the
teeth and further acts as natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels. a.
disinfects the mouth aud throat from
the poison Of catarrh.

Perhaps the most reasonable ex-
PLANTATION of the robbery lies in the
assumption that Dominic Earle, hon
est, but simple-ninded, did not go up
stairs at all with Crawford, but left
him at the foot of the stairs, Influenced
by his eagerness to get home. Grant
ing this supposition, what would have
been easier than for Crawford. left
alone at the foot OF the stairs, to have
turned back with the valise and gone
into the back room Of some neighbor-
ing saloon or other convenient place,
where he could manipulate the label
and substitute the bogus package7
There is reason to think that the bogus
package had been prepared weeks be-
fore, which would have accounted in d
measure for its worn and slovenly ap-
pearance- The time occupied IN doing
all this need not have been over Is
minutes, which would not have been
noticed at the bank, especially as the
robbery occurred after banking hours.
1t is highly improbable, however, that
Crawford could have accomplished the
substitution on the stairs Of the ex-
press ONCE; for, while these are wind
ing and somewhat in the shadow. they
are by no means dark, and are plainly
in view Of clerks and officials who are
constantly passing. Besides that
Crawford could not have carried the
dummy package concealed about his
person without attracting attention, for
the original package was quite bulky
being about 20 inches long, 20 inches
wide and 4 inches thick. The bogus
package was not quite 80 thick, and
more oblong, but could not easily have
been hidden under a mans coat.
Finally, even supposing Crawford did
carry the bogus package with him in
some manner, he would never have
dared to expose himself to almost GER.
tain detection by cutting or the label
from the genuine package. pasting it
on the bogus package, placing the lat
ter IN the valise and hiding the genu-
inc one in his clothes-and doing all
this on the busy stairs Of an express
Office where at that hour Of the day
a dozen men are going up and down
every minute.
The sum Of all these theories Is. how
ever that. IN spite OF the fact that the
author Of the robbery is known and
the bulk Of the money has been re-
covered, the manner of the robbery Is
to this day q mystery.

Good music is powerful tonic to
many people, especially those suffering
from melancholia. 1t lifts them out of

vigor. 1t seems to put great many
people into proper tune. 1t gives them
the keynote of truth and beauty.

discord from the life, scatters clouds
and brings sunshine.
All good music is a character build
er because it's constant suggestion of
harmony, order and beauty puts the
mind into normal attitude. Music
clears the cobwebs out of many minds,
so that they can think better. act bet
ter and live better. Some writer's are
dependent upon music for their inspi-
ration and their moods. Somehow 1t

Just what Caracas would do without,

seen when nature suddenly decides to

Richmond BARRIERS, workmen and

being made by the Indiana State
BARRIERS Association, to have the
legislature enact sanitary laws.
!, An effort was made to have a suit
able law enacted by the Indiana Leg
islature, several years ago, but the
effort was defeated, largely it is said
through the efforts of some Of the
larger Indianapolis boss BARRIERS.
There are at present suitable sani-
tary laws in number of states.
These laws provide for board of ex-
aminers which examines applicants
for licenses as BARRIERS. Every bar
Der, including the bosses, must hold
license, the price of which is S.,
with charge of ST. per year for re-
newal. Xxx
Those BARRIERS, bosses of journey
men, who are following their trade
when the law goes into effect are not
charged for a license. The candi-
dates for licenses are examined as to
their knowledge Of dematology and
the proper manner in which to keep
razors, shears and various equipment
in a sanitary condition. 1t is thought
that another effort to have such a
law enacted at the next session of
the Indiana Legislature will be made
by the Indiana State association.

SHUTTING OUT THE SEA.
Ire Massive Sea Wall That Stretches
Around Galveston.

Iae Massive Sea Wall That stretches
Around Galveston.
Stretching around the eastern limits
and continuing entirely along the south
ern side of Galveston is it's massive
sea wall, standing as an impregna Bile
defense and an insurmountable barrier
against even the greatest storm ever
known to have occurred in the gulf,
says writer in Marine Review. This
wall symboiizes in its firm construc-
ton on solid foundation not only the
absolute future safety of the city, but
also that unwavering confidence and
mistaken belief of Galvestonians in
this location as the supreme harbor of
the star empire and the gateway for
the vast and limitless resources of the
great southwest. The city sea wall was
begun Oct. 81. 1902. and the work was
completed July 90. 1904, having been
carried to a successful conclusion in
three months less than the contracted
time, which, considering the magnitude
of the undertaking. Is noteworthy. AS

THE OPTION ri OF THE COURT y
Judge Vaughn of Button, Says No
Rehearing is Possible When
the Accused is Insane. 4
THE OPINION OF The COURT

John w. Terrell, the Bluffton muir
derer, now confined in the Eastern
Indiana Insane Hospital, this city,
will pobably not be removed from
the institution to undergo new trial
despite the efforts of his family and
friends along this line. 10
A Dispatch from Bluffton tells Of
the latest legal phase Of this very ex-
traordinary ease, as follows: rs
When a motion was made Satur-
day afternoon by Sturgis & Slime
and J. A. Hipdman for the appoint
ment of new Judge to take jurisdic-
ton in the case of John w. Terrell,
who is charged with numbering his
pn-in-law, Judge Vaughn intimated
in a pretty decided way that he
would oppose any effort to give Ter
ELL another trial as long as he lar
bored under the disability of a SEN
fence Of insanity. $500. .fi
The motion was made in the name
bf Pleasant Stanley, guardian OF
Terrell and in discussing the motion
Judge Vaughn said that he saw no
reason why Stanley should worry,
hbout Terrell,'s murder case; that he
could not be tried by the state as
ong as he is insane, that it would be
large and useless expense to the
county to go further with the case
ut this tim eand that Terrell was
practically out of the jurisdiction in
he asylum at Richmond his guardi-
IN had another remedy for that, but
hat this court could do nothing
further in his case as it stood now.
Attorney Hindman asked that the
notion be ruled upon so that the de-
ense could take further steps, but
he .7ourt cut off the debate, which
lad been carried on between him and
Mr.. Hindman by adjourning court.
Until tomorrow.
What further action the defense
will take the attorneys are not will
Ing to state, but it will not be allow
"a to rest where it is. Terrell's at
orneys hold that the quashing of the
riginal affidavit should be followed
" the retrial Of the defendant on an
mended indictment, there being no
necessity for a new indictment as
he prisoner is held on the old. They
lso hold that no new indictment has
zen returned against Terrell be-
ause he has not been arrested. An
Indictment was really returned by
he last grand jury and is on record,
ut the defense holds that the in
ictment cannot be placed on record
ntil an arrest is made, and Terrell
as not been re-arrested.
With Judge Vaughn strongly OPP
osed to giving Terrell another trial
is doubtful whether the defend
nts can force trial at least only by
long and complicated process.
