Found to be Faulty and Case is Dis
missed, But Defendant is Held-six
More Discharged.

New lists of persons for grand and
be prepared by the board of supervts-
ors next Thursday. An order instruc-
ing the supervisors to meet on April IL
and select the three lists of names was
issued by Judge G.. B. Bradshaw in
the district court this morning. The
supervisors had anticipated the order.
and when the board adjourned Thurs
day afternoon, adjournment was until
next Thursday morning.
County Attorney j. II. Egermayer
filed a motion this morning asking that
the entire panel of petit jurors be set
aside for the same reasons which Judge
Bradshaw quashed the indictment re-
turned by the grand jury. Judge
Bradshaw had already intended doing
80. and his order had been prepared
before the county attorneys motion
was filed. Members of the board OF
supervisors were served with the notice
today.
Following the selection of the lists OF
Jurors and talesmen the lists of names
will be turned over to the county audi
tor to be recorded, and to be handled
as prescribed by law.
The order to draw new petit jury lists
was followed by the excusing of all
less extraordinary conditions present

Indictment Faulty, Case Dismissed.
Late Thursday afternoon, after the
states case against George Perkins, the
negro charged with obtaining money
by false pretenses, had been started,
the action against the prisoner was
dismissed. Perkins was not discharged
and is held in Jail. The case was dis
charged on the motion of Perkins at
torney, that the allegations set forth
in the indictment did not cover the
charge for which Perkins was being
tried. The motion was sustained, but
because other indictments were re-
turned against Perkins, he was not dis
charged.
Six More Discharged.
The motion alleging the Illegally of
the grand jury, which was sustained
in the Wulke case and which was
filed in other criminal cases, was sus-
tanned in six more by Judge Brad
shaw, and the cases against the de-
PENDANTS were dismissed, the six dis
charged, the cash bonds of two ordered
refunded, and the bondsmen of the
others released. Those discharged
were A. Sanderman, Ed. Bishop, Har-
old Hildreth, Greeley Brown, Harry
Robinson and Fred Morrison. The
motion has been filed in two other
criminal cases. but it has not yet been
brought up.

West Church Street People Write
Anonymous Communication to Hor-

Commandant C. g. Horton, Of the

anonymous communications from sup
posed residents OF West Church street
in which objection is made to the ac-
tons OF a member of the home and
the wife Of a former member, whom
they allege make a spectacle Of them
selves OIL the public streets, much to
the enjoyment Of the children, yet
much to their detriment as an exam
pie of proper conduct. The command
ant can do. nothing with such com-
plants, however, as mo names are
signed. II the actions of the couple
in question are Objectionable, the COM
nandant feels that there is enough
law to sbate the alleged rnisdemeanor,
and that he should not be- bothered
with anonymous letters. Ifsthe writ
ers OF the letters would sign their
statements the commandant would be
better able toFdiscuss the alleged con-
duct with the member complained OF.

and DR.. George e. Wanberg, who re-
sponded to the toast, can Introspec-
tive Look"

was those essentials necessary to sue
cess, In which he put special emphasis
on the religious character. Mr.. Smith
preluded his address and led UP to 1t
with description OF the hundreds of
tramps and baggars. men able to work,
who were mo-. working, and whom he
found crowding the cheap lodging
places and. charity sleeping houses OF
the east side Of New York The ques-
ton he asked was what was the mat
ter that these men were homeless with
out work, ard living on charity. He
said something was lacking in the
men, when the morning following the
night when he visited the places he
described he counted 5S7 want ad-
vertisements for men in one New York
paper alone.
This led up to delineation Of the
necessities for success. Mr.. Smith
placed work first of all. Hard work
and close application to work Trust
worthiness, initiative. persistency and
honesty We're other qualities he bore
stress on. Ile closed by saying: "1'There
is no abiding character outside OF re-
ligion."

ton as he mad known it for the past
eighteen years.

that better environment for the
