IS HELD ON $800 BOND

GRAND JURY RETURNS INDICTMENT AGAINST CHARLES A. YOUNG, CHARGING HIM WITH ASSAULT WITH INTENT TO MURDER HIS BUSINESS PARTNER, EDWARD BARR—WAS BEFORE THE JUDGE THIS MORNING.

PRISONER PLEADED NOT GUILTY

Victim of His Vicious Assault is Some Better Today Rut There is Still Danger That the Wounds Will Prove Fatal—Prisoner And His Brother Furnish Bond—Wife Was in the Court Room.

¶ Chas. A. Young, who on Tuesday, cut and badly injured his business partner, Edward Barr, in a fight in Roachdale, which resulted from argument over the county local option law, was before Judge Rawley this

morning to answer to an indictment charging him with assault with intent to kill. The indictment was issued by the Grand Jury. ¶ John H. James represented the prisoner. Young pleaded not guilty to the charge and Judge Rawley fixed the man’s bond at $800. Later the bond was taken to Brazil by Young’s brother, who will have it executed there. ¶ Word from Brazil this morning was that Barr, although still in a crltieal condition, was somewhat better and that he probably will recover from his injuries. Young now regrets his attack on his partner very much and says that had he not been intoxicated the fight never would have occurred. His wife was in the court room this morning when Young was taken before the Judge. She left the court room with her husband and later accompanied him to their home in Brazil.

IF CITY IS DEFEATED IN SUIT NOW BEING TRIED ALL PERSONS WILL RE RROIIIIHTED FROM USING THE STREET DRAINS FOR ANY PURPOSE.

Judge Rawley this morning rendered his decision on the demurrer, filed yesterday by the plaintiff in the case of E. li. Lynch against the city, to the answer to the complaint. Judge Rawley stated that the ea^e was very complex, but that certain farts seemed to him clear. It appeared that where the city had constructed a channel for water and this channel had conveyed the water across the property of any other party for a period of twenty years, that the city acquired a right to continue that channel. On the other hand he held that where a city collected in a system of drains the surface water from a considerable area and caused this to flow upon the property of another party the city was liable for damages. This lidding makes it plain that the city has right to the channel down Water Street, hut that it is liable for injury done Mr. Lynch by reason of the large volume of water carried there by means of the system of gutters draining the section leading to Walnut Street, provided, of course, that it is shown that such damage exists. The point covered by the answer of the defendants and •the di nuirrer of the plaintiffs was not the real point, however. This is the question of the sewage and the damage done thereby. This question is now before the court. The city acknowledges that the situation is serious, and that the only solution Is a rower '•stem. In the meantime it is probable that a drastic ordinance will be passed forbidding all persons to connect in any way with street drains Fiat empty into sewers such as now ■ v-t in some parts of the city. The witnesses were hoard tills morning. A considerable number had been summoned by the plaintiff nd aive rvip, too nr to the lay of the land under discussion, the system of dr 'noge now In use and to the > •• • • drainage, and the sewage r i ' v complained of.

righteousness. He Is humble enough to bow before truth wherever found, and self- ! confident enough to be himself under I all conditions. Hence, we count It a wise choice, reached by the last Genial Conference, when they took this alert man, capable of prolonged investigation and untiring application as one of the leaders of our hosts.

Fveiting Runaway on Bloomington Street That Ended in a Spill on Andrew Hanna's Front Steps Late Last Night.

RAN TOO FAST TO MAKE TURN

Andrew Hanna was roused from his slumbers about nine o'clock last night by what be at first supposed was an earthquake. Later lie discovered it was only a horse that in a freak runaway had ended its career by falling upon his porch. The horse was owned, so it is said, by Edgar Wood. The vehicle was empty whi n first seen going north on B1 miington Street. The horse was ihen running at top speed. At the irner of Bloomington and Washington Rtr< ‘ts the animal was unable to make (lie turn. It crossed Champer v yard, and still unable to turn, tan upon Andrew Hanna’s' porch. Here the buggy caught on one of the Porch pillars, tearing the harness from the horse, which then slipped md fell against the house, striking with terrific force. Neighbors gathered and the horse was taken to the livery barn, and later was reported none the worse for its frantic run and fall.

HUGHES IS OMPLIMENTEB

In a recent issue of the Pacific Christian Advocate appeared a long write-up of the character and work of DePauw’s bishop-president, Edwin Holt Hughes. The cover page was adorned with a photograph of the bishop and the entire editorial section was given up to a discussion of Bishop Hughes as a man and a minister. The Advo cate said: Bishop Hughes at rest is in no way a striking looking man. Ho is small of stature, light in body, witli a keen, penetrating eye, lips which would indicate severity and an ex pression of the mouth which is usually associated with firmness, and the expression of his face would indicate a close, critical, analytic mind which would be severe in Us judgment and merciless in its processes of reasoning and relentless in its conclusions. Thero is an expression of the brows, when first observed, which is usually associated with abstracted thought and selfish purpose. All these might be associated with a very undesirable character, and the first appearance of this man is not reassuring or greatly invited. Why was he chosen to occupy the most difficult field and to meet the most trying conditions of any man in the episcopacy of the Methodist Episcopal Church, for San Francisco presents more difficult problems and comes nearer being an impossible situation of any place where the church is engaged in an earnest effort to overcome distressing conditions and to promote the reign of

JN AMUSING INCIDENT

As the old soldiers, to the number of some score, were [Finding at the Monon station last evening waiting for the train south, an amusing incident happened. Of the score of veterans a majority were Democrats. Naturally they and their Republican rethren fell into n discussion of politics and especially the recently enaded local option law. In the tliiek ■ f Fie discussion a Republican veteran very much the worse for many drinks of that which local option is to prohibit, pushed his way into the crowd, and declared that he was a Republican and very much In favor of county local option. The climax was reached, however, when, striking an attitude, the Inebriated man declared that “I and Hanly stand on the same platform.” All of which proves that politics makes strange companions.
