NOCTURNAL VISITOR
DIGS Bones From Cemetery
Graves--Thought to be q
BADGER.

Napoleon, o., Aug. 15.-An animal
has been making nocturnal visits In
the Hoy cemetery in Harrison town
ship, this county. digging holes into
the graves and bringing forth bones
The farmers in the neighborhood have
laid for the animal. but have not sue
ceeded in its catpure. One man states
that last Sunday he found hair and
bones which appeared to be that of a
child, unearthed by the animal.
The supposition is that the grave
robber is badger. Traces of him were
found and tracked to large hole in
the ground. Then hunters then arm
ed themselves with pickaxes and spade
and proceeded to dig him out, but as
fast as they dug the animal still dug
faster. deep down into the earth, and
they were unable to reach him.

PREHISTORIC GIANT
Was We'll Equipped With Teeth
Had Two Rows OF
Uppers.

Bowling Green, O., Aug. 15.-The re-
mains of some giant have been found
on the Charles Whiimer farm, west OF
Sugar Ridge. They were dug out of a
large bank by William Jones', while
getting sand for the construction of a
building. The size of the skeleton in
dicates that the bones must have be-
longed to a person at ieaSn eight feet
IN height. They were found at depth
of about five feet and are in a fair
state of preservation. The upper jaws
contains two rows of teeth one back
of the other, some hing which is very
peculiar, as 1t is said that very few
persons are so we'll endowed with
teeth.
The bones were taken to the home
Of Mr.. Whitmer. The skeleton was
found in sitting posture, position
at variance with that used by the In
dians in burials.D The skull Is sew
eral inches larger than an ordinary
skull and though it probably has beer
in the ground for centuries, yet it i:
almost whole.
There is no evidence of Implement
or other things having been buriet
in the same place and vigorous dig
ging in that spot failed to reveal any
thing further.

UNMARRIED PEOPLE
Have no Place In Society, He
Says Bachelors
are Moral Degener-
ates.

Chicago, Aug. Ia. - Bachelors are
moral degenerates. From them ema-
nate most of the sin and shame Of the
world. They are lacking in mental
and physical. poise. The life of no
individual is complete unless he or
she have life companion of the OPP
posite SEX"
Here in nutshell is the condem-
nation pronounced upon the unmar-
ried individual by DR.. e. Benjamin
Andrews, chancellor of University Of
Nebraska, In lecture before students
and friends of the University of Chi
cago, recently.
Bachelor men in the audience list
ened and looked foolish. Bachelor
girls gasped in embarrassment. The
married folks present smiled approval
while the brand of the erudite doctor
was being applied.
Providence intended that men and
women should marry" continued the
speaker. "The world was made for
the family and not for the individual.
The unmarried individual of mar
riageable age has no place in society
nor in the scheme of the universe.
Individuals who do not form legal ties
with the opposite sex will form lille
gal ones. The world does not want
that kind of ties. Marriage is a good
thing. The great men and women of
the world-the ones whose lives were
symmetrical and whose works were
best for posterity - have been mar
ried'
DR.. Andrews found fault with the
tendency of the age-the tendency OF
the bachelor man to use this worldly
gain for his own selfish enjoyment
and the tendency of the bachelor maid
to leave the family penates and so
hustle for herself He advocated get
ting back to the good old-fashioned
ways of the pioieers, when men
shaped their lives and their effects
primarily for the marriage state, and
the girls, demure and hopeful, waited
| for them to come along to their faith
ers' houses and propose. A return to
that idyllic method he thought would
give the individual the nice mental
and physical balance the Creator in
| tended he should have.
DR.. Andrews thoroughly believes in
football as a part of the necessary edu-
cation Of young mea.
"If | had one hundred or one thous-
and children / would want everyone
of them to play football, if they were
strong enough, and to play it hard
and strenuous. Boys ought to be
trained in strenuousness," he said.
THAT is the great value of football;
1t is a school in endurance, courage
and resolution. thoroughly believe in
the game"
