BANDIT'S GIRL PALJjIVEN $lB2 Compensates Four Months Spent in Jail. A Bit Timm Kite rial ELKHART, Ind., Nov. 25—Helen Young, 20, companion of Frank “Red” Prough, Tommy O’Brien and John Hall, all of whom figured as witnesses or defendants in the State’s move to get justice for the murder of Louis Kreidler, South Bend druggist, will receive $lB2 hi witness fees to compensate her'fa?" the four and half months she spent in the Goshen jail waiting to-testify in the Hall trial. Judge William B. Hile, in whose court a jury convicted John and sent him to die in the erect He chair for the killing of Kreidler, ’ awarded Mrs. Young the compensation for her part in the Hall trial. The award was made at the rate of, $1.25 a day, the prescribed fee for witnesses. Her story was an important link in the State’s case against Hall. "She had found a gun in Tommy O’Brien’s coat that was identified as ICreidler’s gun, with which he tried to save his life and property on the morning of March 29, when Hall and O’Brien held up his S. Mich-, igan St. drug store. The gun failed to fire. It was an old model and seldom used, and when Kreidler pulled the weapon in an effort to defend himself from O'Brien, the gun only clicked twice, and in a few moments the druggist was struck a fatal blow over the head.
Shades of Pilgrims, Turkey Hunt Staged Bu Timm Rnpcinl EVANSVILLE, Ind., Nov. 25.—Police Chief Harry Anderson and License Officer Ben Bartlett went turkey hunting in the city and bagged two. Neighbors of Walter v Foley, former city clerk, were reminded of bygone days when folks hunted wild turkeys on Thanksgiving, as Anderson and Bartlett arrived with a couple of shotguns. Foley called the two to his home. Pointing to two big turkeys nesting comfortably in a big sycamore tree in front of his home, Foley said: “They were presented to me Monday night at thl Knights of Columbus Home. After I got home they escaped from their pens and flew up into the tree.” * Anderson raised his fowling piece. “Bang!” and the first fowl came crashing through the bare branches, dropping with a “plunk” to the ground. . “Bang!” went Bartlett’s gun, and the second turkey dropped while Foley smiled his broadest smile. “Our Thanksgiving dinners are assured,” Bartlett said. SPECIAL JUDGE NAMED Venue Petition Withdrawn in Case of Justice. Following withdrawal by Alvin loosely, justice of the peace, who filed suit in Superior Court Five attacking the constitutionality of the municipal courts of a petition to venue the case out of the county, Judge Harry C. Morrison of the Shelby* Circuit Court was selected as special judge in the case. Judge T. J. Moll disqualified himself because he had given an opinion on the municipal court bill during the last Legislature. Despite the fact that their commissions have expired, the justices are still handling cases. Edward L. Dietz, elected as justice in the recent election, is the only one permitted to practice under the municipal court law. ANNEX CONTRACT LET Local Firm to Reconstruct Old Medical Building.
