TECHNICALLY CLEARS VAUGHN

states expressly that the prosecutors
words of approval of the affidavit must
read Approved by me- In the Vaughn
indictment the words of approval read
as follows: Approved by Chas. Green
valid, prosecuting attorney OF the Thir
ty-first judicial district; B. w Hen
derson, deputy" Attorney Conroy cited
the case of Cole VS. state in the 169th
Indiana, page 1913. which is exactly
TO the point. Deputy Prosecuting At
torney HENDERSON argued the motion
for the state.
While il is doubtful whether the case
will be re-tried. Vaughn is not consid-
cred in the eyes of the law to have
been in jeopardy. because he was not
tried under a valid indictment
The case grew out of an alleged
smuggling by Vaughn upon Finding,

To ADD TO
REYNOLDS
BUILDING

James Reynolds, chief consulting
engineer of the western companies of
the United States Steel corporation was
in Gary yesterday looking over his
properties Chief Reynolds visited the
building that bears his name at SEA
Broadway and ordered several addi-
tional improvements.
It is highly probable that the Rey-
nolds building which is the finest office
structure in Gary will be increased in
height to either four or six stories Its
foundations are designed to carry
eight stories and 1t is expected that
very near future.
The Reynolds building is built on the
arcade plan and when fully developed

guard OF zoo police was detailed to-
johnson at the Northwestern depot
when the Overland Limited arrives at
lao d. m from Reno, New.
The colored champions arrival, it
was feared, might precipitate trouble,
and extra police precautions were made.
Ch1ef Steward said there would be
allowed nothing in the why of a parade
and TINT no demOnstr atoms which
would block traffic and create disorder
would be tolerated. A body-guard of
detectives will join the champion as

a possible repetition of the Ogden af-

Judge Fred Barnett, in the city court.
this morning sustained the motion in
arrest OF Judgment made by Joseph
Conroy. attorney for the defense. in the
case in which Leslie Vaughn. an ap-
prentice electrician. was charged with
assault and battery upon Martin Find
ling The court several days ago upon
hearing the evidence found Vaughn
buiity, but Attorney Conroy found that
the affidavit was faulty and in his ar
gument this morning convinced the
court The question before the court
bears a close analogy to the recent rul-
ing by Judge Reiter in the superior
court, in which he ruled that hereaft-
err all affdavits in criminal cases must
be signed by the prosecuting attorney.
Defense Finds TechnicaIity.
The technical error on which the
defense in the Vaughn case based its
argument was the improper wording
of the approval by the prosecuting at
torney. Section 1890 Burns annotated

Ball Park to Wallace
Hagenbach Company.

Mrs Mary Huehn has leased the old
ball park on the north side in Ham

For years the north side ball park

ever, the property has become too val
liable to be used in this manner. and
it has now been sub divided and will
soon be covered with residences.

Declined the Job.

A writer of cheap fiction relates a
trick played on him by collaboration
in the days when dime novels were
longer than they are now. and the
compensation made it worth while for
two men to write one story between
them. After his partner had finished
the first chapter of their initial col
laboration it was handed over with
the following announcement:
There. I've just thrown the hero
over thousand foot cliff and told the
reader that nothing could prevent the
lad from falling to death on the rocks
below 1t is up to you to save the
boy"
The other writer said nothing. but
sat down and wrote furiously for an
hour. Then he quietly handed the
manuscript back. A glance at the
second chapter showed the funny man
that his friend had completely ignored
the events in the first part of the
story. introduced new set of char
acters and left the hero still hanging
over the cliff. waiting to be rescued
by his creator.-New York Sun.
