RIVER ON A RAMPAGE
THE CHARLTON is HIGHER NOW
THAN AT ANY TIME IN PAST
Ials. TEN YEARS.
Charlton Itself is in Darkness Because
of the Breaking of the Electric
Light Plant Dam-Improvement
Along Charlton River is Doomed.
EFEFENEg

Charlton, Aug. 29.-(Special) The
Charlton river which was but little af-
fected during the high water season of
May and June of this year, is now on
rampage and has reached a point
higher than it has stood at any time
during the past ten years. The helds
in the lowlands along the river are all
flooded and much damage will no doubt
be done to crops. Much work was
done along the river in Lucas county
this spring and this is all doomed. One
of the bridges on country road is
1oosened and may go out and much OF
the grading, which at best was soft, is
being washed away.
Town in Darkness.
The dam which held the water in
the pond near the electric light plant
and furnished power for it was brok-
en- Thursday night and the water has
all escaped This will cause consider
able loss and leaves the town in dark
ness until the dam is renewed.
Big Rainfall.
According to the water guage three
more inches of rain fell Thursday aft
ernoon in about two hours, which made
total of ten inches of water in the
twenty-four hours up until o'clock
that evening.
The rain of Wednesday did little
damage, but Thursday it found the
leaks in a majority of the store build
ment under the Smyth store which is
occupied by a barber shop had about
foot of water in it, as well as ma
jority Of the cellars in the town.

JOHN kosTIcH MAY BE VICTIM
OF BLOODY OLD WORLD
PLOT.
CRIME AT CENTERVILLE
Ruffan Shoots Austrian Heir and Then
Rifles His Pockets Father and
Mother Were Murdered and Robbed
Short Time Ago in Austria.

Centeryille, Aug. 29.-(speciaD =
Alter lying in a semi-conscious condi-
ton for several hours, suffering i'm
told agony from bullet wound just
above the heart, John Kostich an Aus
trian. whose home is at Rathbun, was
found Thursday evening lying in pool
OF his own blood in the Appanoose
county fair grounds near this city.
When he had been brought to Center
vile and physicians had succeeded in
reviving him he told the story of a
cowardly attack and robbery by an I'M
known man, to whose identity there
is no clue and who will probably new
er be arrested for the crime. Kostich
Is lying at the point of death and the
physicians say that the chances are
against his recovery. >He is 80 years
OF age and unmarried.
Wanton Attempt at Murder. s.
With his features distorted and his
voice weakened by the intense pain
ne suffered, Kostick, told in
disjointed sentences of the attempt
to murder him. He says that while
he was walking through the fair
ground on his way to, Centerville
shortly afternoon Thursday he was
accosted by a stranger, tall man,
With dark complexion and wearing no
beard, who demanded his money. Kos.
itch. told him that he had been ill for
some time and had no. funds. The
man then without a seconds warning,
so kostich says, placed a revolver
close to his Victims heart and fired.
e y Robbed of Money.
The wound made the Austrian I'M
conscious and when he recovered he
found that he had been robbed by the
stranger OF W, all the money he had
in his pockets at the time of the as
sault. He lay all afternoon at the fair
grounds, occasionally regaining con.
seriousness for few minutes at a time
but most Of the time remaining en-.
tirely oblivious to his surroundings
Had he not been discovered by a pass
ing pedestrian he would surely have
died from loss of blood. AS it is the
bullet, which cannot yet be removed
is lodged in his body near the hear
and physicians say that he has small
chances of recovering.
May be a Plot.
| CltlZens OF Centerville suspect thai
the attack upon Kostich maye be q
part of a plot to kill all the members
OF his family He returned only about
month ago from Austria, where
| shortly before, his father and moth
er, who possessed much money, were
murdered in cold hood at their home
1t may be that the man who assault
| ed the Rathbun man., or some confed
crate, engineered the death of his faith
er and mother and that there is 8
plot to kill all the members of the
family and thus secure the Kostict
riches. .,.t.1-
Hint at Suicide.
Other Centerville people believe
that Kostich tried to kill himself ant
that his story of an assault and rob
berry are made out OF, Whole cloth
However, there is little to ,substan
tiate this belief as no weapons were
/ found near him.
