The young man became deranged

- Jim Lichty, the son OF q neighbour,
who Smith fancies committed come af-
front to his sister three years ago. and
he came to Waterloo to find Llchty.
who he imagined to be In the city. The
warrant for his arrest had been pre-
viously issued and the sheriff, with Dan
Flickinger, drove TO Orange township
Saturday morning to make the arrest.
In the meantime a boy named Shaul-
lis was accosted by young Smith. and
with the persuasion or a Ioaded revolt
yer. induced him to bring him to the
city with his horse and buggy. Shaulis
was frightened into absolute obedience
to the insane mans wishes, and, altho
they met the sheriff and his deputy, he
dared not make an outcry for fear of
being shot. The Shaulis boy, in his fear
accidentally locked the rear wheel of
his buggy with that Of Sheriff Law,
breaking the vehicle. but even with the
opportunity OF making known to the
sheriff, whom he recogniezd, the iden-
lttty or character OF his companion.
The sheriff drove to the Smith farm
and there learned that young Smith
had started for Waterloo. The officers
hurried homeward and en- route over
took Shaulis walking. He explained
that after meeting the officers he was
compelled, upon threats of shooting, to
leave the buggy and the insane man
continued his journey alone.
The officers realized by the expert
ience of shaulis that they wefe dealing
with q dangerous character. and has
tened their teamein an effort to over
take the young man. They came up
with him as above stated. and. the
three men surrounded him. They at.
tempted pacification until they were
close enough to plnn his rms. H wsiioea
close enough to pinion his arms. He
was taken to the county Jail, where he
was examined by0she commissioners OF
insanity and adjudged to be a fit sub
ject for treatment at Independence,
where he will be taken.

The LIGHT TURNED ON.
State Center Completes and Begins
Use OF New Electric Plant.

.Beat0 Center Completes and Begins
Use OF New Electric Plant.
Special to Times Republican.
State Center. April s.The electric
light plant was started here last Satur-t
day evening about 8 o'clock. There was
no ceremony and. with the exception OF
the large crowd on the street, there was
no excitement whatever. on account Of
the newness OF the engine it was
thought best not to run full force, so
only the lights In the business portion Of
the town were turned on. These were
pronounced by everybody a success in
every sense OF the word. The plant has
received larger patronage than any
one estimated. and. altho 1t cost little
more than was provided for by the So
600 bond issue. It is thought that 1t will
soon pay all bills against 1t in excess of
that sum and have q snug amount to-
ward the paying Of the original bond is
sue.
The fact Is that State Center has one
of the best light plants in the state for
its size. and In q few Gays. az soon as
the newness gets worn Off the boxes of
the engine. 1t will be turned on full
blast. Then State Center should cele-
8brate. Why not have a big blow out of
some kind or other TO show the eieclric
light committee that we appreciate its
faithful work and rejoice In Its success.
