WARDEN RESIGNS
OangIeisen's Only Offense Was
That He Obeyed Orders from
q Superior Who Was
hImaelf Arrasted.

Massillon. June "a. = Andrew Dang
leisen, deputy state game warden OF
this city, today sent in his resignation
to the state fish and game commission.
Behind the deputy warden's act Is an
interesting story. A few days ago he
received notice from Captain ]. j.
Wagner of Akron advising him of
much illegal fishing going on at Silver
lake. Captain Wagner is member
of the state fish and game commission.
Hence his notice. He Is also member
of swell outing club OF Akronians
whose headquarters are on the banks
OF the lake. Hence the certainty with
which he gave the information. Dang
leisen asked no questions but went to
work on the case. He was rewarded
the first day by catching a party OF
fishermen dead to rights. Their pro-
tests and alleged bribes were of nc
avail to Dangleisen. One Of the men
even introduced himself as ~. ]. Wag'
oner, sir, and I'll have you understand
that as member of the fish com
mission ! protest against such an out
rageous indignity."
"Oh, come on, you're only foolin'
said the warden, as he escorted hin
before a county justice of the peace
The justice fined the offenders $2I
and costs each. Then Dangleisen fount
that Wagner was really one of th'
party and that the whole bunch wer
members of the swell club
Things began to get warm for Dang
leisen. He received notice fron
Wagner that his pay land expense
had been curtailsd. i

WIFE GETS DIVORCE.

Mary Ream living on Park avenue
Canton, was granted divorce We'd
nesday by Judge Harter from Edwin
Ream upon the grounds of gross ne
glect of duty and failure to provide.
Mrs. Ream testified that during the
past five years her husband had con-
tributed nothing toward her support
and in this she was corroborated by
her son and other witnesses. A num-
ber of her neighbors went into court
and testified as to her good character.
Some months ago the husband left his
home and advertised in the city papers
that he would not be responsible for
any of his wife's debts. Attorney r.
s. Shields conducted the case for the
plaintiff.

Clyde Green of that city had been
bound over to court under bond OF

to Beardsley that Yant had engaged
him to burn his popcorn and candy
factory, which was heavily insured,
and that each would divide the insur-
ance, leave the city and 60 into busi-
ness together elsewhere. The pair
bought barrel of gasoline which they
emptied in buckets which were dis
tributed through the building. Soon
after midnight Sundiy last, Green ac-
cording to his confession. went to the
basement of the building and set fire
to one of the buckets Of gasoline,
which exploded and almost lifted the
building from its foundation.
Green was badly injured and was
taken to the hospital The fire depart
ment extinguished the flames before
they spread from the basement. One
of the firemen was about to dash one
of the buckets OF gasoline on the fire
thinking 1t was water, but he detected

HELD TWICE ON
SAME CHARGE
Herman Mine's Alleged Crime CoY-
cred Period Of Two Differ
ent Laws.
BOTH INDICTMENTS KNOCKED OUT.

Both indictments against Herman
Mirre for the non-support of an lille
gitimate child were knocked out upon
demurrer in common pleas court We'd
nesday morning, and yet Mirre is not
free from the clutches of the law. 1t,
Is claimed another indictment is pend
ing against him. His attorneys how
ever, claim that the first indictment had
been nolled, or they would have de-
INJURED to that. Judge Harter in
passing upon the demurrers stated that
arate offenses. This was the result of
a change in the non-support law. Some
time ago the law was changed SO as to
make the crime felony instead of a
misdemeanor, and the period alleged
in the indictment covering time en-
bracing both laws, SO that he could be
held for both. This was not possible
and or that reason the court sustained
the demurrer to the one indictment.
The second was set aside for the
reason that the indictment failed to
set forth the location of the Fairmount
children's home. where the child in
question is an inmate. Attorneys Ed
L. Smith and l.. G. Wise represented
Mirre and r. H. Day the state. 1t is
understood that the prosecutor will file
another affidavit against Mirre to hold
him for the next grand jury. This
case has been in the courts for long
time. the accused succeeding in escap-
ing trial.
DEMURRER WILL NOT STAND.
The demurrer to the indictment
charging Edwin Jones with burning
building at North Lawrence was over
ruled by Judge Harter wednesday
morning and the indictment will stand
Attorney C. G. Bow, counsel for Jones
stated however that he would carry
the demurrer to the circuit and SUI
preme courts in order to gain his point
as he considered the grounds for the
demurrer were well taken. Failure
upon the part of the state to set forth
that Jones's interest was Of the value
of $50 or more Is what was objected
to. The demurrer will at least have
the effect OF delaying the trial unit
next term of court.
SETTLEMENT MADE.

ny Out Program
Today.

There are to be no regular COM
mencement exercises for the eighth
grade pupils this year beyond such as
they hold in their several rooms. The
eighth grade commencement has been
done away with mainly because there
are two classes to graduate each year
now and the occasion has lost much
of it's significance, particularly in
view of the large proportion that en-
tiers the high school. In most of the
schools there will be some exercises
to mark the end of the school season.
Today the pupils of the
Kemble school, comprising grades
from the first to the sixth, carried
out program of a rather elaborate
nature. The class colors were pink
and white and the class motto was

YOUNG BICYCLE THIEF is
HELD TO CIRCUIT COURT

Charlie Evans, the 1l-year-old boy
arrested on information sworn
against him by Arthur Burial, was
given hearing this morning before
Police Magistrate Johnson, and in
answer to the charge of Stealing BIZ
cycle wandered through the details
of a youthful deviation from recti-
tude. The wheel was taken from the
Mitchell & Lynde building about Q
Oiclock Saturday evening by Evans
and another boy named Miller. The
motive which prompted the theft was
merely the desire for a ride. The two
rode about for a time, but this grew
a trifie tame and after divesting the
wheel of its tires they attempted to
sell il to junk dealer. He refused to
take il without the tires and they
rode on bare rims until the latter
were bulged to such an extent that
they would no longer pass through
the frames. The manned and disman-
tied wheel was a sorry sight, and the
ingenuity of the youths had been eN-
pended in an attempt to replace the
Invested parts. Tires were off, bolts
and nuts taken away, and it would
have taken an expert to have rcas-
sembled it. Evans was bound over to
the circuit court in the sum of 500.
