VAN EPpS CASE
MAY NOT BE TRIED.

The setting of the date Of trial In the
case Of the State KS. Allan Van Epps
was vacated today by Judge Clancy at
the request of ]. L. Wines. who stated
to the court hat it was highly probable
that the action would never be tried.
Mr.. Wines based his prediction on the
nature of the case.
Van Epps is charged with assault In
the second degree. BY occupation he b
a teanlster. About two months ago he
was driving some horses attached to an
ore wagon when a boy planked himself
in front of the horses and refused to get
out of the way. Van Epps ~endeavored
to coax him from in front of the ami
mails, but failed. and he stopped the
team, alighted from the wagon. caught
his tormentor and threw him over a
small em~bankment near by. In going
down the bank the boy fell and broke
one of his arms, and Van Epps was ar
rested on a charge of assault in the Sec
ond degree. At the preliminary hearing
he was bound over to the district court.
but since then some of the parties to the
action have, it is understood, concluded
that no jury between Helena, this state,
and Helena, Arkansas. would convict
him of the charge, as there was no crim-
inal intent in his action.

FALLING HAIR STOPPED.
Badness CURED BY DESTROYING
THE PARASITE GERM THAT
CAUSES 1T.

Badness follows railing hair, falling
hair follows dandruff. and dandruff is the
result of a germ digging it's way into the
scalp to the root of the hair, where it saps
the vitality Of the hair. To destroy that
germ is to prevent as we'll as to cure
dandruff. falling hair, and, lastly. bald
ness. There is only one preparation
known to do that, Newbro's Herpicide.

Wherever it has been tried it has proven
wonderfully successful. 1t can't be other

which he said that in his opinion "the
people should have the right to choose
the Chief of Police" and that it was
unfortunate that the power of ap-
poiutment had been given to the Board
Of Commissioners"
And in an authorized interview sub
sequent TO his address to the Board,
Gen. Dick is quoted as saying:
II believe that the great mistake in
Akron's form of government Is in the
fact that the City Commissioners are
appointed instead of elected. The City
Commissioner law should be so
amended that the people can name the
men who are to f1ll the Office of City
Commissioner"
More than 30 per cent of the people
Of Akron who are citizens before they
are partisans, are disposed to endorse
the sentiments. of Messrs. Wagner
aud Dick, and to give them credit for
having uttered their opinions in good
faith, as citizens interested in Ak
ron's welfare, without regard to the
trifing devices or necessities of pea
nut politics.
But the CONSERVATION which the
words of these leading Republicans
have brought to the ranks of the small
politicians is something wonderful to
behold.
The zone man power in Akron's
government seems to be in its decline
An organized effort on the part Of the
people is all that is necessary TO re-
cover their lost control of their mu
nicipal affairs. 1t is no mean add
ton to the strength of this popular
undertaking that Republicans like
Capt. Wagner and Gen. Dick have
voluntarily pledged themselves to sup
port their fellow citizens in their en-
terprise.
