LIMA, Aug. Miss Della Howard, the
pretty 15-year-old girl who recently created
sensation in this city, is in prison tonight
on a curious charge. At o'clock this
morning, Officer Gus Miller was awakened
by a loud ring at his door bell. Hastily
donning his apparel he opened the door
and discovered Miss Howard, who calmly
asked the officer to conduct her to a house
which has questionable character.
The astonished officer refused, when the
girl burst into tears, and said her aunt had
treated her so cruelty that she had deter
mined the only recourse left was to lead an
independent life. The girl was locked up
and her father sent for
Some ten days ago Della hired rig, kid
naped her little sister, and drove with her
into the wilds of the oil district, where,
after two days search, she was found in
an old abandoned house. The girl claimed
at the time to have been under a peculiar
SPELL which attacked her frequently and
made her utterly unconscious of what she
said or did, in fact, that she was hypno-
tiZed.
The girl must be again nnder the spell,
as her story is hardly true in regard to hav-
ing been badly treated and she has good
home. She is very bright, pretty and well
educated. The case is attracting widespread
attention, and a consultation of physicians
will be held tomorrow in order to deter
mine, if possible, the reasons for her re-
markable actions.

ROCHESTER, Aug. THE resignation OF
Rev. Joseph H. Bausman, pastor of the

are the reports in circulation. Some are
condemning the sessions for taking any

the two elders), a very warm and personal
friend of the pastor, was seen this morning.
who emphatically denied that the session
asked for. Mr.. Bausmans resignation. He
says they wrote him in June protesting
against the doctrines he was teaching, which
they claim are not in harmony with the doc.
trines, as set forth in the Confession OF
Faith of the Presbyterian Church.
In reply the reverend gentleman says in
letter received last evening, that he does
most decidedly dissent from many points in

Gods word and therefore offers his resigna-
ton as their pastor, to take effect immed1-

be any action taken by the church till after
the return of Mr.. Bausman. 1t is but just to
say of the pastor and people, that the very
best of feelings exists between them. The
session say that they are only doing
their duty as prescribed by the laws of the
church, under similar circumstances. The

A Line of Railway From Fayette to Toledo
Proposed.
CLEVELAND, Aug. THE Board of Di-
rectors of the Toledo and Ohio Northern
Railway Company, at meeting held here
yesterday at the offices of the Lake Shore
Company, authorized the immediate prose-
cution of the work of building that road.
The line will extend from Fayette, Fulton
county, O., to Shipshewana, Ind, and will
pass through Williams county, O., and
Steuben and La Grange counties, Ind, and
will furnish third road between Toledo
and Elkhart.
The Toledo and Ohio Northern Company,
which was organized November 13, 1880,
and reorganized May Z, 1890, was formed in
the interest of the Lake Shore and Michi-
gan Southern Company, by which its bonds
will be guaranteed at the rate of S12, 900
mile. The new road will be built through
at an early date, and in connection with the
other lines of the Lake Shore, it will prove
of great value to the territory which it taps,
and it is confidently expected that aid will
be received from the communities along the
line, which has hitherto been sought by the
Toledo-C Chicago Bee Line Company.

WHEELING, Aug. THE Marshall County
Teachers Institute at Moundsville is con-
stantly growing in interest, there being now
135 teachers in attendance. After the usual
routine subjects had been taken up and dis
posed of Virgil A. Lewis, Secretary of the
West Virginia Historical and Antiquarian
Society, addressed the teachers on the SUBJ
ject of preserving the famous mounds at
Moundsville. He said the society was taking
every stepit thought proper to best preserve
these priceless relics of u wonderful age, and
that he desired the teachers and all students
interested in the question to assist them in
doing so.
The Berkeley County Institute at Mar
tinsburg is also creating great
deal of interest, it meeting being the
most successful ever held in the
county. Prof. Miller, after a talk on orthog-
raphy, created a diversion by announcing
that he would give the teachers an object
lesson in that science. There were just lib
welleducated school teachers among his
hearers but when the professor gave out a
list of % common words frequently used,
but frequently misspelled, only seven of the
teachers spelled the entire list correctly.
