FIEND1NoARNATE.
a OastardIy Attempt Made to
Destroy the Residence of
II. Nj. SwitZer.

Gallipolis Journal.
There are all sorts of people on
this earth, good, wicked and mean
but the meanest type of all is the
man who takes advantage of the
cover of darkness to commit an
atrocious crime that will wreak
punishment on an entire home for
a little spite he may hold against
one particular member of the house
hold. It is not known that there
was case just exactly of this kind
last night, but it can be said that
one akin to it was attempted.
Early Monday morning when at
torney r. M. Switzer started out
of the house he discovered a pile
of small pieces of pine wood lying
on the sill of the rear door of the
hall. It aroused his suspicion and
he inquired of the members of his
household if they had placed them
there. Upon being informed that
they had no knowledge of the wood
being there, he inaugurated an in
vestigation which disclosed some
startling facts, The wood was
thoroughly saturated with kerosene
and the carpet of the hall about the
door was in like condition. Scat
tered promiscuously about the door
was perhaps twenty matches with
the heads burnt off and an inspec.
ton of the kindling showed that
several pieces had been ignited. by
the time the investigation had pro-
ceeded this far Mr.. Switzer was
thoroughly convinced that an at
tempt had been made to burn him
out, but providentially the attempt
had been frustrated.
1t was evident that the party who
made such laundering attempt
was familiar with the house and
had hoped to set fire to the property
under Mr.. Switzer's bedroom, di-
,fectly under the stairs, so as to cut
off his escape. Such q diabolical
jplot seems incrediable, but such is
the case. Mr.. and Mrs. Switzer
had spent the day in the country
and being fatigued retired early.
They heard no noise and their dis
covery this morning was start
ling revelation of what had trans
PRED while they were slumbering,
unconscious of what was being
done to imperiI their lives and de-
stroy their homes. What the mo-
tive was and what actuated it can
only be oonjectured. The most
reasonable conjecture is that it was
the work of some enemy.

Fault finding is a chronic all

Fault finding is a chronic all
ment of some people. No person
ever gained prominence in social,
financial or political orioles but
who has became a target for as
saults of this nature. This is one
of the conditions that bring people
more nearly to the same level. If
people would think before they
speak, there would be many less
unkind words heard.
