DR. RICE IS CHARGED WITH ATTEMPT TO KILL.

Morocco Courier — Dr. Eugene Rice, a veterinary of Thayer, was arrested by Sheriff Bardner Monday on an affidavit filed in the circuit court by Arthur R. Franke, also of Thayer, who charges Rice with assault and attempt to kill. Dr. Rice was taken to Kentland and gave bond for his appearance in court yesterday, when the case was set for trial. At the time the Courier went to press there had been no material developments. Prosecutor Murphey put in most of the day Wednesday gathering evidence and preparing the state’s side of the case. The short time, howibver, will seriously handicap him. Jacob Moore is here for a visit with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. B. J. Moore. Jake has a good position as motor inspector with the J. L Case company at Racine, Wis.
