The alleged assault took place at Rushville on the night of the WatsonHall reception. Price wns trying to arrest an Intoxicated man on an interurban car, when he and Brookbank became involved. Brookbank testified that the marshal was about to put his eye out with his thumb and was beating him with his mace when he drew the revolver from his pocket and It was discharged. The court's Instructions were to the effect that if a man was not guilty of any misdemeanor and an officer tried to arrest him he was entitled to use force sufficient to resist.

Sixteen Year Old Boy Travels 6,000 Miles on Just Six Dollars

Chicago, July 4. Could you travel 6.00 miles, gain seven pounds in weight, and return home the picture of a Remington westerner in complexion on $(. Alexander Schick the 16-year-old son of Mrs. Jacob Schick, 553 Bernice avenue, has just completed the feat. In place of riding comfortable in vestibule cars and stopping at hotels en route, he rode on everything that travels on two tracks, from a section car to the top of a passenger coach, and slept wherever men of the law were not likely to interfere. The largest sum expended for a meal during the trip was 15 cents, and that sumptuous repast was secured in a Cincinnati restaurant where the atmosphere and crockery were thick. The youthful adventurer, who was a choir boy before he turned cosmopolite, left the parental hearts Feb. 15 to win a dollar his uncle, Alfred Bower of Indianapolis, Ind., had offered him if he displayed enough nerve to stay away from home four days without calling on his mother for aid. He not only remained away from home four days, but found '"hoboing" such good sport that he traversed the whole of the southern and western states before he decided to return and claim his dollar. Cooks "Mulligan" for Mother. Young Schick is now an adept in the jargon and methods of subsistence of the hobo. Since his return the Schick household has had considerable difficulty in following his conversation. He has persisted in going into the kitchen and cooking a dish called "Mulligan." which is a hash made from "pickups" or "handouts." Mrs. Schick consented to his cooking the mess one evening and since then they haven't cared much for anything in the way of food. After "Alex," as his mother calls him, had been away from home three TWO PLATFORMS FOR DEMOCRATS ARE NOW LIKELY (Continued From Page One.) The head of the ticket if it goes like Bryan wishes it to. will come from the west, the permanent chairman of the convention. Congressman Clayton, will come from the south, as perhaps may the next chairman of the national committee, the temporary chairman has been named from the extreme west and the east so far has nothing. Gray Can Have It. Looking at it from another viewpoint, it is figured that if Judge Gray will consent to be vice-presidential nominee he can have it because he is acceptable to Bryan and concededlv a strong man. He has already declared he does not want it. He asserts that under no consideration would he be a vice-presidential candidate." That undoubtedly eliminates him from that phase of the situation. It leaves Mc Neill, Kern and Lewis. Although it is expected that Kern will make a hard fight for the place it is believed he will be unable to face the Eastern support of McNeill. Lewis' chances do not seem strong enough to consider in the same class with McNeill's by the vice-presidential dopsters. This simmers it down to McNeill. Of course, much will depend upon official statements expected from Gray stating positively and officially just what his position is. One of the strongest points in favor of McNeill developed with the arrival of Thomas M. Grady of New York. He has taken headquarters with the McNeill people at the Metropole hotel and seems to have taken a decided fancy to that end of the vice-presidential group in Denver. One story has it that Grady is to lend his silver tongue to the McNeill candidacy when nomnations are in order and make the seconding speech for him before the delegates. Grady says nothing on that score. The situation will be cleared up af ter the deal when the New .York dele gation arrives in Denver and holds its caucus Monday evening. Up to that time Norman E. Mack of New York

The first night I was on the road I slept in a box car, the second in a mission house and the third in a jail. That's going some. yYou can never stave to death on the road, because the people take too much pity on you this time of the year. Love to all. ALEX. The boy went to New Orleans via section car, freight train and the "blind" of a baggage car. In Birmingham he was thrown into jail for trying to establish sleeping quarters in a box car. It was a "rummy burg," he said, and he "beat" it for the west when he was released, traveling night and day. When he reached Arizona and began to rub up against Chinamen, Japanese and Mexicans, his ideas about the pity of people shown wanderers underwent radical changes. He stalked the desert three days, hungry and thirsty, before he succeeded in "swinging a blind." Chased by Police. Several times he met the same fate that the Birmingham police handed to him. He reached Los Angeles on the top of a Pullman. He wrote his mother a postal and told her that everything was fine on the coast and then sought a box car on a siding to spend the night. When he woke up he found the car sealed and attached to a train speeding somewhere, which turned out to be San Francisco. After spending a night in the car in the Golden City, he was unloaded with the lumber and placed in the care of a policeman. He saw enough of the earthquake and "San Fran" to satisfy him and started for home at the first opportunity. The trip was made in ten days with few meals. Young Schick says that he is not likely to yearn for the "road" again. He has secured a position in the Stock Exchange and intends to stay in Chicago. He has written his uncle for the dollar. and chairman of the national commit tee, declares nobody can talk about who is to be vice-president. "There is nothing to that story of the New York candidates with-draw-ing," said Mr. Mack. "Nobody will know about that until the New York delegation holds its caucus on Monday." After all the talking is over the bosses will get together in Denver and decide on a man and that man will be the one nominated by the convention. BRYAN GROWS BITTER. Pays His Respects to Magnate. Standard Oil Lincoln, July 4. William J. Bryan from his porch at his Fairview residence, told a big delegation of Pennsylvania men and women who stopped in Lincoln on their way to Denver just what he thought about James M Guffey, the Standard oil magnate, and democratic boss of the Keystone state. Bryan called Guffey "bush whacker" and several other things, whereat the crowd of loyal Bryanites cheered themselves hoarse. This was the first bitterness Bryan has shown during the preliminary campaign for the presidential nomination. Guffey is bitterly opposed to Bryan and has fought him tooth and nail. The Pennsylvania delegation has forty members instructed for the master of Fairview. Twelve members are counted on as favoring Bryan and sixteen go to Denver, their choice unexpressed. Bryan's speech was not long. It occupied less than five minutes. In it he used the personal pronoun "I" exactly seventy-five times. Today was reception day at Fairview. The delegates on their wav to Denver began to arrive in bunches. MADE FINE CATCHES. Cambridge City, Ind., July 4. (Special.) Mr. and Mrs. Joe Moore have returned from a fishing trip at Colon, Mich.

President Roosevelt celebrated the Fourth of July at Oyster Bay today with a family reunion. All the Roosevelts were invited to Sagamore Hill to renew acquaintances and witness the fireworks display which the president had arranged for tonight. The Roosevelts include the president his own family, three cousins, Emlen, James A., and J. West Roosevelt, with their families. Each visiting family included at least five children. All the president's family were at home except Kerniit. After the president had finished his morning's work with Secretary Loch, he directed his attention to the entertainment of his family house party. He was starting for the beach with his children and a large supply of firecrackers when he was interrupted by a telegram from Col. Chas. Bromwe;:, Superintendent of Grounds, of Washington, who presented a request signed by eight leading democrats, asking permission, in the event of Bryan's nomination to fire a salute from the cannon in the monument grounds. The president telegraphed his assent. After the celebration the president went for a long horseback ride with his sons Archie and Quentin, over the unfrequented roads of Long Island, while Mrs. Roosevelt chaperoned a party of young people on a trip on the Sylph.

Generous Mrs. Crewe. A gambling story is told of Charles James Fox that rather reflects on his honor. He was one of the ardent admirers of Mrs. Crewe, a noted beauty of her day, and it is related that a gentleman lost a considerable sum to this lady at play and. being obliged to leave town suddenly, gave Mr. Fox the money to pay her. begging him to apologize to her for his not baring paid the debt of honor in person. F?x lost every shilling of it before morning. Mrs. Crewe often met the supposed debtor afterward and. surprised that he never noticed the circumstances, at length delicately hinted the matter to him. "Bless me!" said he. "I paid the money to Mr. Fox three months ago." "Oh. did you. sir?" said Mrs. Crewe good naturedly. "Then probably he paid me. and I forgot it-"

This ghost story Is contributed by a correspondent of an English magazine "Wycollar Hall, near Oolne, was long the seat of the Cunliffes of Billingtou. They were noted persons ia their time, but evil days came, and their ancestral estates passed out of their hands. In the days of the commonwealth their loyalty cost them dear, and ultimately they retired to Wycollar with a rem nant only of their once extensive property. About 1819 the last of the family passed away, and the hall is now a mass of ruins. Little but the antique fireplace remains entire, and even the room alluded to in the following legend cannot now be identified. Tra dition says that once every year i specter horseman visits Wycollar HalL He Is attired in the costume of the early Stuart period, and the trappings of his horse are of a most uncouth description. "On the evening of his visit the weather is always wild and tempestuous. There is no moon to light the lonely roads, and the residents of the district do not venture out of their cottages. When the wind howls loudest the horseman can be heard dashing up the road at full speed, and, after crossing the narrow bridge, he suddenly stops at the door of the hall. The rider then dismounts and makes his way up the broad oaken stairs into one of the rooms of the house. Dreadful screams, as from a woman, are then heard, which soon subside into groans. The horseman then makes bis appearance at the door, at once mounts his steed and gallops off. "His body can be seen through by those who may chance to be present; his horse appears to be wild with rage. and its nostrils stream with fire. The tradition is that one of the Cnnllffes murdered his wife in that room and that the specter horseman is the ghost of the murderer, who is doomed to pay an annual visit to the hone of his victim. She is said to have predicted the extinction of the family, which, according to the story, has been literally fulfilled." Shameless.

"There are many more good distance runners now than in my days, said an old time champion after watching a three mile scratch race at the New York Athletic club games. "But the habits of the runners have not changed any, for I noticed one little trick, in the race that bore the significance that used to attach to it "To the casual onlooker there was nothing to choose between the two leaders when they were beginning the last quarter of a mile. Right from the track of the pistol they were running almost stride for stride with the low, graceful, easy action of the real long distance runner. "Neither bad called into use the reserve power which must be utilized In the final sprint for victory when they turned into the stretch for the final lap. Then one of them slightly turned hla head to see where the third man was. " That man is beaten, was the thought which occurred to me at once, and It proved true, as always, for when the dash for the finish began be allow, ed his rival to get a lead of five yards before going after him In earnest pursuit "From that point to the finish there was no perceptible difference in the speed of the 'men. but the man who had turned his head to make sure that he would get second place, instead of bending every energy to win. of course landed where his thoughts placed him."

Persistence In undertaking is a laudable virtue, but it caq be a tit overdone sometimes, as in a case described by Y. L. Molloy In "Our Autumn Holiday on French Rivers." Mr. Molloy and his friends, longing for a good dive, went to a swimming school on an island in the Seine. Tbey donned their rented costumes and were preparing for the plunge when a man with ropes came aleng and insisted on tying them about their waists. It was according to police regulations, and, although they made as indignant protest, they were obliged to submit While we were dressing, says Mr. Molloy, we asked the two swimming masters for an extra toweL "Pardon." they replied. we must attend to our monsieur." Then we saw that there bad come upon the platform a short and absurdly fat man dressed in bathing costume, swimming sandals and oiled cap. "Let's see him go in." said we. "What a splash he'll make." The swimming masters received the new arrival at the middle of the platform. There he balanced himself on his stomach on a wooden stump two feet high. The masters seized bins by his bands and feet and with slow and deliberate movements made him strike out with the action of swimming. They kept this up for a quarter of an hour, and the perspiration rolled off him in great drops. "He'll be awfully hot to go into the water after that." said I. But he did not go into the water. Tbt swimming lesson over, be moved toward the dressing room, saying: "I have done better today." "Ah, yes," answered one of the masters. "Your progress is admirable." The fat man beamed with complaisance and went in to dress. I called the swimming masters aside. "Does our monsieur1 practice often like that? He must have great perseverance." Terseverance! He has worked like this for five years, and be has neve been in the water!" thli cooer- Ton. ral e.refttflr. lw. ;.i;uwir fcyrup P.ptin Is raaitiseir kaarar.. r 1 to cure indwaatios. constipation, sic k aea;h. offenaiv. breath, malaria sa all Ciae liilca- from ttcmach trocbi.
