THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

desperate of the deputy sheriffs who terrorized union organizers, | lay dead today—killed by two bul- | lets in his brain. Chris Patterson, under subpena by the prosecution, was held in the Laurel County jail for questioning. He was booked on a charge of

“information.”

Corbin, Ky. White was shot twice in the right side of the head. It was the third time since this trial started that gunfire had broken out involving persons connected with the case. Lester Smithers, former president of the Yancey local of the United Mine Workers, was killed in Harlan County and Clyde and Verlin Fee, brothers, were held in connection with the crime. It was not believed, however, that that killing had any connection with the trial, but merely was a brawl. Lee Fleenor, a deputy sheriff on trial here, was arrested in connection with the shooting of Charlie Reno Tuesday night, but that was said to be a mountain feud rather than an outgrowth of the trial.

Municipal Judge, pro tem., Silas Lipman thinks it is bad policy to sock a man who asks for it, and personally, he says, he wouldn't do it. | His reactions on the subject came up in court vesterday during trial *of Louis Heck Sr. 2103 Fernway | Ave, for assault and battery on William Schmidt, 2107 Fernway Ave. next door. Testimony brought out that Heck came home Saturday to find his wife nervous and complaining that the people next door were throwing firecrackers against the house. Heck then called to Charles Calkins, who also lives next door. to ask who was responsible. Just then Schmidt came up, Heck said, stuck out his chin and declared: “I did it, and what are you going to do about it?” “I hit him,” Heck told the court “Wouldn't vou have hit him, judge?” “No,” replied Judge Lipman After admonishing the three men to “be good neighbors,” he withheld judgment in the case.

NT. JOSEPH. Mo. July 7 S P)—Two boys were tenced by Judge Merrill E. Otis in Federal Court today, and while won probation, it was the other. who stood alon® and friendless, who excited the court's sympathies. Robert Hoskins, 18, Stanberry, demanded $300 from Dr. Edward D. Criswell of Stanberry and threatened, in a letter, to kill him if the money was not paid. HosKins pleaded guilty. Judge Otis sentenced him to five years each on two counts. Beside Hoskins was Sylvanus Jahue Watson, 17, Grant City, who was charged with rifling 14 lockboxes in the Grant City Postoffice. He also pleaded guilty Judge Otis sentenced him to two years at a reformatory. “This boy is the son of a convict who is now reputed to be the town drunkard,” said Judge Otis in speaking of Watson. “He comes here alone. He has no friends and no witnesses appear for him. He has served two terms in the State Reformatory. But in pleading guilty this boy had a thought for his family and asked to be put in jail and not in prison. He didn’t threaten anyone with death. He must be very superficial observer who thinks his youth entirely responsible for his situation. He is a victim of fate = n ” " ONTRAST him with the HosKins boy, who has a host of
