JUDGE FUNK QUASHES
QU|LHOT INDICTMENT
Charge Is Dismissed Because
of Omission of Technical
Words.

Judge Funk dismissed the case of
John II. Quilhot, charged with illegal
y operating as a detective Thursday
morning in the circuit court when he
sustained a motion TO Quash the in
dictment. Arguments on the motion
were made late Wednesday afternoon
when it was held that there had been
failure 10 negative certain exceptions
TO the alleged facts of the indictment
and also that the wording of the in
dictment was ambiguous. The court
did not rule on the former grounds
but sustained the motion on the lat
ter grounds.
The wording OF the indictment was
To the effect that QuilhOt had oper-
dted as a detective without having Sc
cured license from the secretary OF
the state of Indiana" The motion to
quash was sustained on the ground
that the wording should have read
from the secretary of state of the
state of Indiapa.'
Citations and arguments were made
TO show that this failure TO designate
exactly the title of the secretary of
state was of Importance in that the
pharseOlogy of indictments was strict
ly construed as involving matters of
life and liberty and also that courts
had held that persons holding cOnsti-
tutiOnal offices must be designated eX-
actly by their official title.
This case against QuilhOt first came
up in the court of Justice Peak who
bound the defendant over under $500
bond. No defense was entered in the
lower court. If the charge is pressed
against Quilhot now it will be neces-
sary either TO recOnvene the grand
jury or else a second charge Will have
to be filed with the prosecutor.
The case had been set for trial
Thursday in the circuit court. The
case in which QuilhOt is charged with
public indecency will be reset Friday
following a continuance granted last
week to permit the defense to secure
a certain witness.

CITY AND COUNTY
NEEDS COLISEUM
SAY SPEAKERS
Unanimous Sentiment Express
ed at Chamber of Commerce
Luncheon = Advantages of
Such Building Are Outlined.

That S.. Joseph county wants a
coliseum and needs one was the SEN
timent expressed in talks at the
weekly luncheon of the Cham Der of
Commerce at the Oliver hotel Prom
inent farmers. who were guests. made
talks at the luncheon and told why
the farmers need and want colise-
um. For the city. Municipal Recrea-
ton Director r. b. Barnes told why
the city needs a coliseum.
Asa +. Matthews, president of the
county farm bureau o. II. Swigart
prominent stock breeder, and County
Agent John s. Bordner, spoke for the
farmers. Mr.. Matthews pointed out
that the farmers would take as much
pride in exhibiting their products as
the merchants did at the high school
show last week. but they have no
place to do it. A coliseum where
both city men and farmers could
mingle for a week at a big show, Mr.
Matthews said, would be the biggest
step toward eliminating the line be
tween the two classes. The farmers
want to cooperate with the city bust
ness men, he said, and a coliseum
would be the place to start this CO.
operation. Thousands OF dollars
could be kept at home, he maintain
ed. if the farmers could hold a big
own. instead of going to surrounding
cities and spending several days
there.
Mr. Swigart said that a live stock
show, the equal of any in the middle
west, could be held in st. Joseph
county if a suitable place were at
hand. a coliseum would solve the
problem. ne said.
County Agent Bordner pleaded for
more cooperative spirit between
farmers and city business men. He
said the indiscriminate knocking"
comes from misunderstanding
usually. IF we had a place where
we could come together and under
stand each other better the so-called
knocking would end" he said Such
a meeting place would be afforded in
a coliseum, he concluded.
Director Barnes showed the pos
sibilities Of a coliseum in promoting
athletics over the entire county an,
as a place TO hold a big garden and
flower show. Big meets between
county and city schools could be
made features, he said. Also big
intercollegiate meets could be drawn
here with the assistance of NOtre
Dame if a suitable building were at
hand.

"H|GH JINKS" OCTOBER 4TH
At THE MAJESTIC THEATRE

The Whit of a magic perfume sets
the principals and chorus of "High
Jinks," the musical jollity which Ar
thur Hammerstein will present at the
Majestic Theatre, October 4, to singing
and dancing a song called Something
Seems Tingle-Ingle-Ing.' The tune
threads it's way through the entire per-
formance, and proves, it is said, one of
the very jolliest airs in many many
seasons of musical comedy. The plot
deals with an innocent mixing up of
wives and fancees. The flight of doc
tor pursued by dueling Frenchman
whose wife the doctor has kissed,
changes the locale from Paris to the
seaside. Numerous complications arise,
making the story a typical French
farce, full of life and merriment, but
kept clean from start to finish.
In addition, the plot forms a thread
on which are strung such bright musi-
cal gems as Something Seems Tingl-
Ingle-Ing," "Jim," Cloves Own
Kiss" tim through with Roaming
Romeos," "Chi Chi, ," "Not Now, but
Later" "Come Hither Eyes" 81

others, was hit and knocked down

out during the afternoon and even
ing and had been drinking consider
