Preliminary Hearing Was Held in
Judge Fitzegarld's Court Yesterday
Attorneys for Both Sides Guard
Well Their Moves and Won't Show
Hands Until Later.

E. G. Bentall, former editor of the
Northern Indiana, was bound over to
the circuit coutr yesterday in Judge
Fitzgeralds court EmbezzIement is the
charge on which Mr.. Bentall was bound
over and he was required to furnish
$1,000 bond. The bond was signed by
DR.. c. A. belong.
There was absolutely nothing of
sensational nature brought to surface,
as has been predicted, both sides guard

begins in the upper court.

Attorney E. G. Ballard yesterday

Z. Gallon put but one witness on the
stand, Costello. one of the owners of the
paper and the prosecuting witness. The

is alleged, BentalI collected for the Gary

Grand Larceny Charge Dismissed.
The grand larceny charge was dis
missed for want of prosecution. The
case was to have come up before Judge
Townsley yesterday afternoon. but
neither the attorney nor the prose
cutting witness appeared. Soon after
the case was filed it was seen that the
charge of larceny against the former
employee of the publishing company
could not be made to stick. After the
embezzIement case was heard. however
Attorney Ballard and e. G. Bentall ap.
peared before Judge Townsley wher,
they saw that the case was nollt
pressed. Mr.. Bentall has not been wor
ried in the slightest over the larceny

Editor Is Confident.

Mr.. Bentall did not SEINE very nerv
Gus when arraigned on this serious
charge, but on the contrary looked ex
tremely confident that he would be re-
leased. He talked in as confident a
manner as he looked, and his attor-
neys say there is no question but what
they can clear him. It is a certainty,
however, but what a hot fight will be
put up to convict him in Judge Nc
Mahon's court. Attorney Marshal E..
Gallon, who arrived late from Chicago,
showed that he was feeling deeply the
death of his young baby, which re-

Contradictory Statements.

There was but one statement brought
out in the testimony of Mr. Costello
which was in contradiction to the as
sertion which Mr.. Bentall has previous
ly made This was in regard to the
salary to be paid to the editor. Mr..
Costello testified that the former was
to have been paid SIS per week and s.
for expense money and that the latter,
while in charge of the finances of the
company, took from the collections
which he made, salary of $50 per
week beside the S. expense money.
This the witnesses said was done with
out his knowledge. Mr.. Bentall al
leges to the contrary, however. that
he only received $25 per week when he
should have received $40. and it is
thought that he will sue the company
for the remainder.

Friends of Arthur H Osborne, who
nearly two years ago secretly married
Helen Maloney. daughter of a wealthy
Philadelphia promoter, announced that
the reason the young womans suit for
the annulment of the Mamaroneck mar
riage had been held up was the desire
of her family that she take her posi-
ton as the wife of the young broker
and consider the elopement with Sam
uel Clarkson, young Englishman, as
closed incident. The annulment pro-
ceedings were under way, and it was
the couples intention to remarry, but
the young woman's father decided that
this would be a mistake.

This historic tavern stands at the
corner of Broad and Pearl streets. IL

since Washington's day and In the
course of the changes made in repair
ing IL came to have quite a different
appearance from the tavern of IA
years ago. The Sons of the Revolution
acquired the property three years ago
and the society has spent 6O,OOO In re-
building the structure and making IL
as nearly as possible like ii was In the
time of the Revolution. using the orig

part aud following the pictures and
descriptions OF the tavern as 1t existed
In the eighteenth century. The prop

through a bequest for the purpose
from an ex-president Of the New YORK
state branch Of the Sons of the Reyo-

memorial tablet reciting the fact OF
his patriotic interest in the ~preserva-

Tradition had it that mine host
Fraunces was a genial man who at
tracted to his tavern the important
social affairs Of the New York of his
period. The merchants met here to
confer regarding the odious stamp act
The "long room" was the headquGr-
ters not only of the chamber of com.
merce, but Of the st. Andrews society,
the governors Of the province, the New
York society and the Society For Pro
noting Arts and Agriculture. The
wine cellar was once used as q jail
where unfortunate malefactors of the
days Of King George were secretly
bottled up to repent of their sins at
leisure and amuse themselves by
scraping the green mold OF the damp
floor of their boots. Rusty chains used
to confine prisoners hang on the wall.
The tavern will be used henceforth
not only as a place of refreshment. but
as a historic museum. When the
work of restoration was begun 1t was
necessary to turn out certain guests
who had lodged there. among them
Patsy McGovern. a longshoreman who
for t~hirty-six straight years had been
accustomed to hang his jumpers in the
same room and who did not want to
move. He protested that il George
Washington had been living that wor
thy statesman would not have allowed
the tenants to be elected to make way

Beware of the Doc.

At Essen, Germany, where Kruop,
the cannon maker, has his great works,
there is a city ordinance that reads:
ANY boy who shall be bitten by a
dog shall be arrested and fined at
least 2 marks by the magistrate. II
bitten twice by the same dog. he shall
be sent to the city prison for NOT less
than three days"
The idea is to give the dog a chance,
and 1t Is perhaps the only city In the
world where a stray dog is not afraid
OF a stray boy. All the dog has to do
ID to bite him. and away goes the boy.

The AGE of Niagara Falls.

1t is strange how estimates differ as
to the age of the Niagara falls. Geol-
ogists have. studied the question for
years, but they do not agree ! IN their
conclusions. The old notion was that
changes in the level of the land around
the great lakes produced the Niagara
river about $1,000 years ago. Later
investigation reduced this estimate to
1900 years, a wonderful difference.
Then a famous geologist made 1t 3d.
600 years, which in turn was reduced
to 1900 years. The most recent esti-
mate Is that Of DR.. Spencer. who
thinks that the river is about 3D.
600 years old and the falls $1,000 years
old. At one time, thousands of years
ago, the height Of the falls was about
400 feet.
