NOBLESVILLE, Ind, Oct. %. -
The case IF the state against Arthur
Court, charged with having liquor
in his possession, is set for trial in
Hamilton circuit court here Tues
day. When local officers searched
his roadhouse four miles south of
this city 8 few weeks ago they say
they found a small quantity of
liquor. Federal agents made a
search of the place at the same
time, but the evidence which they
presented to the federal grand jury
at Indianapolis did not result in
Court being indicted.
Court formerly lived in Indian
apolis and about a year ago won
100000 on a horse race. Of this
amount, he paid $4,000 for fifty
eight acres of land in Hamilton
county and has since sold more
than half of it for $75 an acre.

Rescue of 80 Entombed in

ALSDORF, Germany, Oct. %
The apparently hopeless task of res
cuing some thirty miners entombed
by an explosion in the Wilhelm pit
of the Anna mines was carried on
today.
Workers had brought 249 bodies
to the surface this morning through
the debris of the wrecked shaft.
One group of men, the number
still not determined exactly, re-
manned locked in the deepest levels
of the mine. However, little hope
was felt that they would be found
alive, for the difficulties of the res
cue workers increased as they bur-
roWed slowly down into the mine
and encountered debris that ap-
peared at least temporarily impass-
ible.
