Telegraph News by Direct Wire from All Over Indiana.

Indianapolis, April 5. In a decision of the state supreme court that reverses the opinion of the lower eouri because that court refused him a new trial .Tames Gillespie, of Rising Sun. Is set free from the prison at Michigan City, where he is serving a life sen- " tence for the murder of his sister, Elizabeth Gillespie, Dec. 3, 1103. The decision not only gets Gillespie free, but orders that the prosecution be abandoned. Elizabeth Gillespie's brother James, Belle Howard and Mr. and

i- .Airs, jij run iaroour,were mciicTeu and

placed on trial charged with the crime. They jury disagreed, and Gillespie, who elected to be tried separately, Avas convicted. The other three defendants later were acquitted. Selection of the Jury. Elizabeth Gillespie, an esteemed woman of middle age, was killed by a load of shot from a shotgun fired through the window of a room of her home. In the first trial, after the jury had been sworn, the state demanded the discharge of the jury on the ground that one of the jurors was a second cousin of the deceased husband of Hello Howard, one of the defendants. The jurcr was examined and swore he knew of no such relationship. The court allowed the state to peremptorily challenge this juror, and another Juror was selected and the new jury sworn in before which K" trial occurred

Supreme Court Points. The supreme court holds that at the moment that the first jury was sworn in the defendant was placed in jeopardy of his life; that if there had been relationship it ceased at the death of the defendant's husband; that no evidence of any relationship had been adduced, and it was an error to allow the peremptory challenge and discharge of the juro The supreme court further held that when the second jury was sworn in the defendant was, in violation of the constitution, placed twice in jeopardy of his life for the same offense, and from the moment of the discharge of the juror the state was estopped from proceeding further with any prosecution against the defendant for the crime.

AT TOWIE'S OPERA HOTTSE.

"Carter" the mysterious and Mrs.

Philip Ilenricl, Jr., at the Towle opera

house, Friday, April 5. "Carter," the

magician who appears in company with Mrs. Philip Hariel, Jr., the great mind-

reader and psychic phenomenon. Is known among his friends as a prac

tical Joker, and recently while in Phila

delphia had lots of fun for himself and

a friends at an Italian fruit vendor's stand.

Having purchased two oranges from

the vendor, "Carter" turned to him while cutting the orange in hand, and innocently injuired if it was a navel orange or not, exposing at the same

time to the astonished gaze of the Ital

ian a bright $20 gold piece, imbeded in

the center of the luscious fruit. "Car

ter" nonchalantly removed the gold piece, pocketed it, and proceeded to cut

open the second orange, this time en

grossing the attention of the fruit merchant without any trouble, and

whose eyes once more beheld a second

shining $20 gold piece lying complacently in one-half of the orange.

"Carter" thereupon bought two more

oranges and after opening these two and discovering in front of the merchant a $20 gold piece in each one, asked

the Italian to sell him a dozen of the oranges, whereupon the man from sunny Italy rejoined that "he would sella no more." "Carter" and his friend smilingly took their departure, and from the opposite side of the street watched the Italian slowly pick up and halve one orange after another until a dozen or more had been cut in twain, hoping to find among the fruit the $J0 gold pieces that he had heard America was filled with and which "grew on trees," but which he had never seen so easily and wonderfully produced before. For many days thereafter the Italian was Ur.own to look upon anyone with much cuspicion who bought oranges from liim and who asked him if they were i-.aval or not.

Fa!nt-Hearted Modern Lovers. The average modern young man cares only for "tame rabbit coursing." He labors under some new-fangled delusion that it is undignified to woo unless you're more than half sure of winning. Naturally the sport is dull both to pursuer and pursued. The dainty art of courtship is nearly forgotten. Woman at Home,
