Harvey Fisher Is Dismissed
By State Because OF Lack
OF Evidence
CHARLES FISHER HAS
GONE TO WEST VIRGINIA
Continuance Of Two Weeks
Given To Produce Accused
Man In Court

After hearing had been delayed In
the bootleg cases against Harvey
Fisher and Charles Fisher had been
delayed since April "a last, these cas-
es were called for hearing in the
mayors police court Thursday MORN
ing.
On the motion and at the request, OF
Prosecutor Paul NJ. Ashbaugh the
case against Harvey Fisher was dis
missed. He was charged with having
intoxicating liquor in his possession.
The case was dropped by the state
because of having insufficient evi-
dence to convict.
In the case of Charles Fisher there
were two charges, one of having in
toxicating liquor in his possession,
and another alleging the possession
of property for the manufacture of in
toxicating liquor
It was learned, however, that Fish.
er had left for West Virginia on last
Tuesday before he could be notified
that his case nd been set for hear
ing on Thursday. An agreement was
reached to continue the hearing for
two weeks longer at which time it
was promised Fisher will be present
in court. Failing to appear at that
time his $1,000 bond will be forfeited.
The delatoriness that has marked
the disposition of these cases has
been productive of not bit of COM
ment, rumor and gossip. The raid on
which the arrests were made and the
charges filed was made by Sheriff Ly.

the cases never would come to hear

the Fishers and to prevent exposure
were protecting them. There seems

surmise, but nevertheless it passed
current.

reached an end and he informed the
attorneys the cases must be tried. He

cutor Ashbaugh who has given assur.
ance that he will cooperate in the last
degree in bringing Fisher before the
bar.

that formerly the soIemnization OF

wife. The English. according to an
old custom, are wont 10 cast wheat
upon the head of the bride when she
