In the west end of the coliseum was
seated the chorus of two hundred and

chorus was greatly enhanced by the
arrangement of the seats, in tiers, the
women being gpwned in white, with
the contrast OF the black suits of the
men on either side. Surrounding the

ECHO OF FAMOUS CASE.
IN THE RUSH CIRCUIT COURT
AND JUDGE SPARKS DECLARED
HIS BOND FORFEITED.

New Castle, Ind, May 29-Were it
not for the fact that George Hazard,
the celebrated Henry county historian,
failed to arrive in Rushville last Sat
urday, Charles w Mouch who went
his security, would not be defe ndant
in the $500 suit instituted by Prose
cutor Barnard for the collection of
Hazards bond. When Hazard was
arrested, charged with forgery by
Henry Brown of Mooreland, he ap-
pealed to Mr.. Mouch's generosity. His
request was granted and Hazard
was released from custody. Mr..
Mouch went his security, and Haz-
zard went his way.
Hazard was called in the Rush cir
cult court on Saturday He failed to
appear, was defaulted and his bond
has been declared forfeited. Prose
cutor Barnard then drew the COM
plant against Mr.. Mouch and filed
it.
When the forgery case was called
for trial here, Hazard, through his
attorney, notified the court that he
was hunting for an important wit
ness and asked a continuance. This
was granted and Hazard is still
hunting.
