TROUBLE AT
GLEN HAVEN
McIVer-way Feud IAired In Court
At Lancaster.
Jury Finds for Plaintiff and Case is Ap-
peaIed to higher Tribunal

A jury composed OF c. F pickin-
SON. f. r. Barnett. H. Ressmeyer,
Thos. NeCollins, r. Ward and Geo.
Dyer found Samuel McIver and Elmer
Hoffman, Of Glen Haven, guilty OF as
sault and battery in Justice McGoni-
gals court Saturday.
The complainant IN the case and
one Of the parties upon whom the
punishment was inflicted was Erwin
WAY. also of Glen Haven Dist. Atty.
Brown prosecuted while Ed. NJ Low
nv appeared for defendant A large
number of witnesses testified on one
side or the other and the action oc-
cupied considerable time.
From the testimony introduced it
appears that the trouble all arose over
the fact that Newer endeavored to
drive herd OF cattle on the Sth day
OF May last over supposed right of
way running through, or rather
alongside the Way farm. The elder
Way had a few days previous forbid
the privilege, claiming that the lane
McIver desired to use in reaching his
pasture land was no th0roughfare.
/ So when McIver and Hoffman, d hired
man, came along with the cattle one
morning Way and his son with stout
I clubs beat the herd back and stamped
ed them. Then the clash came.
When the round was over and the
clouds had shifted away it was found
that Way and his son had received by
far the worst Of the deal. In fact it
was difficult for the former TO reach
the house and he has only recovered
recently from effects of the drubbing
sustained in the battle. McIver re-
ceiyed some painful bruises about the
head and shoulders; Hoffman a few
scratches and the imprint of the
younger Ways teeth on his arm; and
the latter WAS discolored III various
portions of his anatomy as a result Of
the part he had taken in the program.
Time was required to allow bruises
TO heal before litigation was taken up
and the action Friday was the open
ing for series Of actions TO be insti-
tuled between the parties.
In accordance with the verdict
handed down by the jury, the court
pronounced a penalty Of $40 hue and
costs upon each Of the defendants
the costs amounting to at least 500.
Proceedings for appeal were AZ once
started and the matter viii be heard
again in detail at the faH term Of
circuit court The action was first
brought before Justice Wheeler but
was taken to Justice McGonigal
through change OF venue.

PASTOR TALKS
TO RED MEN
The Rev. John Shape Delivers In
teresting Sermon.
THREE HUNDRED AT CHURCH
Local Tribes Observe Tammany Day
by Attending Divine Service
at Delaware Avenue
Baptist Church.
HREE HUNDRED AT CHURCH

Local tribes of Red Men attended di-
vine services III the Delaware Avant .
Baptist Church yesterday morning. They
met at Red Mems Hall on Ship,ey street
and marched to the church in body.
There were about 300 of the Red Men
making Il line nearly four squares long.
Seats We're reserved in the centre aisle
Of the church. About SO members of
The Daughters of Pocohontas also at
tended the services.
The Itev. John Shape pastor of the
church had prepared special sermon
for the occasions His subject was: "The
Greatest Of Three" Mr.. Shape took his
text from the thirteenth verse of the
thilteenh chaper of First Corinthians:
But the greatest of these is charity"
Mr.. Shape said in part: "The principles
for what you stand, Freedom, Friendship
and Charity, are worthy principles, but
the greatest is the last The verse in
which our text is found speaks of two
other things which are great. Faith,
Hope and Charity but the greatest is
Charity. There will come a time whc
there will be no faith. 1t is when it
shall bc lost in sight. There will come n
time when there is no hope, it will be
when il is lost in glad realization. But
there never will be time when there
will be no love: it will abide forever.
THE three things ] want to speak Of
arc love contrasted, love analyzed and
love illustrated. Love contrasted is with
seven things, eloluence, proficy, UNDER
standing of myst 'rics, knowledge, faith,
benevolcncr and martyrdom, but love is
greater than any of these. Love ana
| yzcd is crown in which gleames
seven gems, they are forgiveness, pa
tience, humility. unenvious, benifience,
tenderness and sympathy and these seven
give 4 seven fold pre-eminence above
everything else in the world" In de-
scribing love illustrated Mr.. Shape spoke
Of Gdo's great love for men and Christ's
great love for the world. He said "fol
while God gave His Son it must ifot be
forgotten that the Son gave Himself for
MS. With the love of these two as an
example whether we be members of the
church or members of your magnificent
order, are to go forward blessing man
kind and winning loves reward"
| On next Sunday morning there will be
an aged and "shut ms service at Della
ware avenue Baptist Church. Carriages
will be sent for aged persons who are un.
able 70 walk to the church. After ser
vices they will he taken home in the
carriages. Tomorrow night the Rev. Mr.
Shape will lecture at the church on
How to Find Yourself"
