MRS. CALLAHAN
and CRUM Held.
FOR GRAND
Youthful Offenders Laugh
Heartily When Witnesses
Tell of Being Shot AT

Still apparently considering their
escapes as bandits = a pretty good
joke, Fern Callahan, girl leader, and
Charles Crum, her companion, were
this morning given a preliminary
hearing before Justice of the Peace
II. J. Kirk on charges of assault with
intent to murder, theft Of an auto
mobile and theft OF horses. They
were bound over to the grand jury in
the amount of $500 bond in each Of
the assault charges and $500 in each
Of the theft cases.
While officers were testifying as 70
their activities and that the youthful
offenders had shot at them on two
occasions the defendants appeared to
find the recollection extremely funny
and laughed heartily. The girl espe-
cially seemed Indifferent TO the action
of the examining court and was still
smiling when Deputy Sheriff Fred
Wynn took them from the court room
to the Jail. Charley Crum, who came
to the border, according to his own
confession, after he had deserted from
the navy, said after court was over
that he could not make bond. Have
you no people?" he was asked. "Yes.
but I'm not going to write to them, :"
he replied.
The states witnesses were City
Marshal w. r. Estes Of San Benito,
Bernie Goolsby, Deputy Sheriff Joe
Ballinger and Joe Taylor The off
GERS testified to pursuing the defend
ants on Saturday and Sunday night
and to capturing the girl on Monday
morning and Charley Crum and Cecil
Preston on Tuesday night. Goolsby
testified that he first saw the defend
ants in an automobile that he recog-
nized as belonging TO f. +. Johnson
of Mercedes. and that he drove his
car in front of them and told them to
stop, and, he testified, Crum shot at
him. Upon this testimony the county
issued another charge Of assault with
intent to murder, the first charge Of
this nature having been made when
the defendants engaged in a gun bat
tie with officers the night following
the shooting at Goolsby.
Cecil Preston. the third member Of
the party, who was shot when he at
tempted to avoid arrest, was not pres
ent in the court room, owing to his
wounds. A preliminary hearing will
be held in his case when he is able to

ayers were attempting Ito control the
republican convention by the use of
money" while the Lowden organiZa-
tion apparently was spending even
greater sum to gain support for their
candidates. Within 10 days. he pre-
dicted, two democratic aspirants,

recent South Dakota primaries repre-
sented an expenditure Of $40. Such
a situation, said the senator. forecast
