The action of the supreme court
of the United States in sustaining
the validity of the Texas antitrust
law against the powerful Standard
Oil trust is a decided victory for
state control and regulation of
trusts. Other states may now
model trust legislation after that
of Texas with the knowledge that
it. has been sustained by the highest
tribunal in the land.

The interest Of London at pres
emit is centered on Mafeking, which
seems doomed to fall before the
Beers. Roberts advance on Pre-.
toria will not begin for a few days
yet and in the meantime London
fears news of the surrender of Col
Baden-Powell and his brave gar
rison. This would be a costly
victory as it would tend to raise
the dropping spirits of the Beers
and make the resistance to Roberts
advance more determined.

Welded AFTER ARREST.
Marriage Was Not Prevented But the
Groom Had Some Trouble.

Mansfield, Dec. IA case In which
two loving hearts were parted at the
altar occurred here at the home of the
Rev. DIR. II. L. Wiles, pastor of the

ing parties were Martin Moser and
Leona Hunter, daughter of James Hun
ter, who resides near Shiloh.
Moser's parents live near the same
place, but he has been working at
Greenwich and came here Wednesday
night, and met Miss Hunter at the de-
pot. They went to the Lutheran par
sonage to get married and were al
ready standing up. ready to have the
ceremony performed. when Officer Aus
tin entered and placed the groom un-
der arrest on the charge Of perjury, the
marshal Of Shelby having telephoned
here to hold Moser, 1t being claimed
that he had sworn when he secured the
license that the bride was 18 years of
age, whereas her father claims that she
will not be Is until May 8. 1t was his
desire merely to prevent the marriage
on account of his daughter being under
age. Moser was placed in the city
prison.
A reconciliation later took place, and
the couple were married.

Called to the Stand and Gave Testimony
For Her Father.

Columbus, o. Dec. 7.-Florence Nc
Cune Sells, the only child Of Peter and
Mary Sells, was put on the witness
stand in Chancery court, Thursday, and
testified for her father and against her
mother.
Throughout this engrossing trial the
sympathy Of the public has been in
the main withheld from both plaintiff
and defendant. An outlet for that SYM
pathy was found in a general feeling
of pity and almost love for the pretty,
popular and hminded daughter OF
tbs couple. There is @ general criti-
cism Of her fathers attorneys for hav-
ing called her as a witness, In spite
of the claim that Harry Lyons late tes-
timony could best be nullifed by what
Florence knew. At the separation she
clung to her father. The facts she
related were testimony for her father
and against her mother. Both parents
litsened to the testimony.

Special to Ncws-Democrat.
Akron, Dec. IA horse was taken
from the barn of Walter Scout and a
carriage owned by William Clements,
in Northampton township. The fel-
low who stole the horse and carriage
drove to Old Portage where Miss MolIie
Scott, sister of Walter Scott, teaches
school, reused the family and told Miss
Scott that her brother had been shot
by burglars and that he had been sent
to take her home. She went with him
and was driven to the home Of her
brother in Northampton. When they
got there, Miss Scott entered the house,
and found that her brother was all
right, and had not been shot, as Bennet,
the man who is supposed to have stolen
the rig, had told her. As Miss Scott
entered the house Bennett drove down
the road at a rapid gate, and since then
nothing has been heard Of him. His
conduct, in going for Miss Scott. can
not be explained. A description of the
boy, horse and carriage has been sent

buckeye State Says
That If Stark Cannot Agree Co.
.s Iumbiana VIII Take
. Judqeship.

Some mutterings of discomfort are
heard In the district concerning the
manner in.which Stark county is franz
ing matters without the consent OF
Columbiana and Carroll. In Column
biana II seems to have been assidu-
ously circulated that all is not harmony
in Stark county, and that there Is n
chance for. a split in the matter Of Sc
lecting common pleas Judge to sue
ceed Hon. Il. r. McCarty. Who Is cir
culating these stories is not known, but
that they are being circulated is evident
from the talk of gentlemen who come
from these counties and from news
paper publications. In Carroll county
they are outspoken in the belief that
they ought to have judgeship, and in
Columbiana they are taking sides,
somewhat, with Carroll, though they
are not so active as in the smaller
county. The Buckeye State of Lisbon,
discusses the matter as follows:
A storm is brewing over in Stark
county anent the next judge to be
elected in this common pleas sub -divis-
ion, which may extend to include the
other two of the trio of counties, Co
lumbiana and Carroll. At the recent
banquet rendered to retiring Judge
Taylor, the toastmaster, Judge w. II.
Day suggested the fitness of Henry
Harter for judicial honors, and Mr..
Harter's friends, and Mr.. Harter him
self. are disposed to pass the incipient
boom on as a good thing. Naturally
enough, Judge McCarty, the present In
cumbent, and his friends, do not take
kindly to the suggestion that he be
shelved. In the meantime, II the Stark
county people cannot agree, Column
biana has an abundance Of the material
from which acceptable common pleas
judges are made.
