CHRIS HILL IS
BOUND OVER
Penitentiary Bird Sees the
Prison Wall Again in
the Foreground.

After a hearing which lasted all this
morning and until late this afternoon,
Chris Hill who is alleged to have as
saulted Floyd Boutwell, and then took
Miss Mary Peters in a round about
course to a point on Hoffman street
where he tried to hlackmail here, was
bound over to the Lake superior court
under 5000 bonds.
Chris Hin has already served three
years and three months in the peni-
Tertiary and If he Is convicted in the
upper court of the charge that has
been brought against him he will be
taken back to Jeffersonville on the
charge of violating his parole. and will
have to serve the remaining ten years
of his term.
or Great Importance.
Consequently, the outcome of the
preliminary hearing this morning was
of the greatest Importance The case
was tried by Special Judge J. X. Stin-
son and Attorney Charles Greenwald
appeared for the state. while Attorney
D. E. Boone made an appearance fol
the defendant.
The state was able to introduce g
great deal of corrobora tive testimony
which showed that the story Floyd
Boutwell, and Mary Peters told about
the assault of Boutwell,, the theft oil
the locket and the attempt at black
mall was true, and that Hill had made
the mistake of his life in again enter
in gupon another criminal career.
There was no testimony which cast
the slightest rejection on the conduct
of Miss Peters, and her testimony and
that of Boutwell, was so straightfor-
ward that it left no doubt in the mind
of the court that the prisoner should
be bound over
While the 5000 bond is low, it is
not believed that anyone In Hammond
could be induced to risk 5000 on Hill
when there is every incentive for him
to get away.

That the regular democratic organi-

Constipation is mans worst enemy,

we resort to powerful remedies which
are so drastic in their action that they
damage the tender lining of the bowels
