DISMISS CHARGES
AGAINST CANTW. Ii
insufficient Evidence Against
Alleged Pickpocket AS
signed as Reason.

Two affidavits against Frank Cant
we'll, of Indianapolis, charging pick
pocketing and assault and battery,
were dismissed Saturday by Judge
Fox on motion of Prosecutor Allen
The prosecutor held that evidence was
insufficient. The $1,000 cash bond
given by Cantwell and his father was
returned.
Cantwell with John Willis and Hen
ry Wyles were arrested at Nineteenth
and North E street last May when a
circus showed here. The three We're
alleged to have made several we'll
planned "rushes" on persons waiting
for street cars, to carry them from
the circus grounds. In these rushes
the trio, it was said, picked the pock-
cts of persons.
Willis was released shortly after the
arrest on his own recognizance.

character. it is yet written in style
to hold the attention of the layman.
The preface TO this edition states:
The fundamental part of the great
railway system of the United States is
the track which forms the rail way
and which carries the traffic. In view
of its importance and in view OF the
amount and quality of engineering and
technical work involved in the con-
struction and maintainance of the
track. il may appear somewhat strange
that the technical literature on the
subject should be so limited as COM
pared with that on other branches of
railway engineering.
That may be attributed largely TO
the fact that until within very recent
years, the management of this depart
ment of railway service was consid-
cred as belonging to the grade Of skill
ed labor rather than 70 that OF scien-
tific and technical training.
The development OF the position
and work OF the engineer OF maintain
ance-of-way within the past few years,
| however, is evidence that this branch
of railway engineering is coming TO
! the front"
The book is fully revised, with 232
| illustrations. Al tables and an appen
dix of statistics of Standard Track
| Construction on American Railways.

doubtfully. and yet l think there are
some things about it that ought TO be
changed"
She suggested that the eyes should
have rather more of an upward look,
that the right hand should be a little
less prominent. that the hair should be
made more wavy and that certain
changes ought to be made in the drap-
cry.
THAT would require great deal of
retouching." said the artist. and l
should have to charge you about $40

His First Experience.

An automobile accident occurred
to Frank Uherka last Sunday
night at about eleven O'Clock
when he returning with his family
from Tyndall. Near the Gamble
farm east of Tyndall, Frank some
how lost control of the machine,
running into alditch and the ma
chine turned turtle, pinning him
and his wife beneath. His four
children happily were thrown out
of the machine and two boys, one
of whom is 15 years old and the
other 13, seeing che dangerous con
dition of their parents marshaled
their strenth and succeeded in lift
ing the machine and thus perhaps
saving the-lives of their parents.
Mr.. Uherka is considerably hurt
on the head and Mrs Uherka re-
ceived painful, but not dangerous,
body wounds. The machine is .
Ford and was damaged consider
