Silent Wife
Rule Barring Evidence
Against Husband Used
at MunCie.

BB ! nited Prcss
MUNCIE. Ind, Oct. 19.-The
state of Indiana is unable to prose-
cute a case here due to- appliance
of the rule barring wife from testi-
flying against her husband. William
Warfel is charged with shooting
with intent to kill. His wife. Char
lotte DeLong Warfel is the only
witness available for its prosecution.
They were not married at the time
OF the shooting. Mrs. Warfel asks
annulment of her marriage on the
grounds that she was forced and
coerced into marrying Warfel and
was unconscious when the ceremony
was performed. The state holds
that the defendant married her to
prevent her testifying at the trial.
Nevertheless the defense successfully
invoked the rule against wife's
testimony
Warfel shot through a window at
a rival for Mrs. WarfeTs affections
before their marriage At the time
for trial the shooting victim who
had recovered from wound, did not
appear and the prosecution was un-
able to find another witness.

With eighty-six years Of blacksmith
ing behind him, John Hawkins, 98,
is to have a new shop here, built
by funds contributed by citizens, his
ole place having been destroyed by
fire recently.
II have coon hunted, danced, fid-
died and fought" Hawkins replies
when asked the reason for his long
life. He has used tobacco since he
was Il years old, and during the
day of the saloon, liked drink of
whisky.
But I would not think of drink
ing the sort Of stuff they have these
days" the old blacksmith asserts
II think it would shorten my good
life"
The blacksmith has never been a
church member. He states his creed
on religion in the following words
II always believed that If lived
the right sort of life here on earth,
the hereafter would take care Of
itself"
Although there are relatives with
whom he could make his home,
Hawkins lives alone. His wife died
twenty-five years ago.
Horses are no longer shod in the
Hawkins shop, automobiles having
practically wiped out that line of
work. However, the aged man keeps
busy repairing farm implements and
making butcher knives. In the
spring of this year he pointed 100
plow shares. He is a fiddler-not a
violinist-and has won fourteen
prizes in contests. He is still able
to dance, his hearing is good and
he has never worn glasses.
