Mt, UNION COLLEGE
MEN AND MA|DENS
INDIGNANT OVER ANTl.SPooN-
ING EDICT.
Men Call, and Boys Feel the
Same Way.

Alliance, Sept. 26.-Mt. Union COL
lege girls, and boys too for that mat
ter, are indignant over the new fac
ulty ruling which has just gone into
effect. The rule provides that no
young man hall call upon any young
lady on any evening Of the week ex-
cept Saturday. Then he must leave at
10 o'clock. On Friday evening he may
take his best girl to literary society
but must leave when he has taken her
to her door.
On Sunday evening he may take her
to church but must again leave when
it is over.
Il think it is crazy" said.one Of the
girls. 81 don't see what good 1t will
60. It's funny II girl can't have a
young man call upon her" Some Of
the girls who live out of town say
they will go home Friday evening and
then they can do as they please.
The rule applies not only to the
ladies' dorm" but also to all the sor-
ority houses and boarding clubs. Ma
irons of the latter places will be held
responsible. The ruling is quite an
innovation as the students hereto
fore have done about as they pleased,
especially when they did not room in
the dorm.

DR.. SHAFER
SAYS HE is NOT GUILTY OF
CRIME
GAVE BOND OF $1,000
Man Admitting Taking a
Canton Horse

Dr. II. ii. Shafer, of Alliance, who
had been indicted for criminal prac-
tice by the last grand jury, returned
from the west Sunday and Monday
came to Canton and retained Attor.
neys Welty & Albaugh to defend him.
He claims he was not guilty, and
through his counsel entered a plea of
not guilty and gave bond in the sum
of $1,000 for his appearance for trial
The doctor claims that he was called
into the case after the child was born
and that he had nothing whatever to
do with precipitating matters.
William b. Camp, who was charg
ed with stealing horse in Canton and
taking it to Massillon and disposing
of 1t, stated that he was drunk when
he did it, was ready to plead guilty
and did not want any counsel.
A number of other prisoners were
arraigned and entered pleas Of not
guilty. Counsel was assigned to them
EXTREME CRUELTY.
Alice Head yesterday filed a peti
ton for divorce from Harry Head
charging extreme cruelty. They have

Wife OF ALLIANCE
MAN WANTS HIM
SHE HAS SENT THE POLICE AF.
TER HIM.
They Armed with a Peace Warrant as
Well az the Usual Clubs
and Guns.

Alliance, o., Sept. 26.-E. ]. Urig, a
we'll known civil engineer of this place,
is man sought after at present by
the local police who have a peace war
rant sworn out by his wife and which
they wish to serve upon him.
About six months ago Urig was mar
ried to Miss Hazel Mullen of this city
and the marriage proved an unhappy
one. Some time ago the two separated
and since that time there has been
some trouble between them. Mrs. Urig
has lately been working as q stem
ographer in the Office of c. S. Westover
and Monday when she was coming to
work she was accosted by her hus-
band at the foot Of the stairs. She
refused to stop at his command and
was later followed to the office UP
stairs. Here 1t is alleged Urig drew
revolver upon her and threatened
her. Her screams drew occupants OF
the building to the spot and Urig es-
capped.
A letter was received by Mrs. Urig
later in the day from her husband
who had gone to Bergholz. In 1t he
asked her forgiveness for his actions
this morning and gave the impression
that he contemplated ending his life
Nothing further has been heard Of him
About two weeks ago the report was
circulated that Mr.. Urig nad committed
suicide but the report proved to b'
false.
Mrs. Urig alleges that her husband
has threatened her life several time!

GOVERNOR WRIGHT'S
LETTER PUBLISHED
AS AN OFFSET TO JUDGE PARK
ER'S UTTERANCE.
Says Agitation in the United States
For Filipino independence Makes
the Natives Too Cocky.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 26.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt discussed the letter Of
acceptance of Judge Parker with his
many callers today but he carefully re-
Trained from comment intended to
reach the public ear. AS If in answer
to Judge Parker's declaration favoring
independence for the Filipinos, there
was given out from the White House
this afternoon the following extract
from letter received by the president
from Governor Luke E. Wright under
date OF August 10:
THE effect of the continued discus
sion as to the capacity of the Filipino
for self-governmenI and his immediate
or ultimate independence is having
its effect here and makes our task
more difficult than it otherwise would
be. The less man is equipped with
intelligence and those qualities which
make for good citizenship the more
easily can he be persuaded that he is
the possessor of all those qualities.
This people have their full share OF
ambition and vanity, and they also
have their full share of reckless, half
formed characters who are ready for
intrigue in any direction which prom
ises them profit or power 1t is this
class which has largely given force and
direction to the Ogilpay movement
and has recruited its ranks from the
ignorant and dangerous elements.
In this general connection l may
say to you as a matter of information
that the agitation in the United States
for Filipino independence, and the
spoken and written utterances OF prom
inent men there who are urging it, are
all brought here and published in the
native newspapers and are being made
the text for editorials insisting that the
Filipino people are now ready to be-
come an independent nation. The ef-
feet of all this is distinctly injurious
| It's tendency is to restore the influence
of the old insurrectory leaders and tC
make them active in preaching the old
propaganda. This in turn has the ef'
feet of demoralizing and weakening
the more conservative and thoughtful,
Filipinos, who fear that If they speak
out as they really think, they would
| be considered the enemies of Their
people and lose their prestige with
them. Those of the most prominent
and best educated, and who naturally
have their ambitions, are inclined to
join in the general cry"

NO MORE LAND
Wanted BY Gettysburg
Commissioners

Washington, D. c., Sept. 26.-The
commissioners of the Gettysburg Ma
tional park advise against further pur-
chases of land. In their annual report
just handed to the secretary of war
they say;
"Tn our opinion the acquisition Of
any further extensive tracts of land
here by the United States would be a
waste of public funds, and we think
one more liberal appropriation by con-
gress, for the fiscal year ending June
30, 1906, will enable our commission
to complete the Gettysburg National
park in a manner worthy of the gov
ernment and satisfactory to every sec
tion of the country ana when it is
complete only a modest amount will be
required to maintain it and to employ
sufficient guards to protect a public
property now aggregating in value mil
lions of dollars"

FAIRBANKS
Swinging Around the
Western Circle.

Billings, Mont, Sept. 26.-There
were three big demonstrations in honor
of Senator Fairbanks in the tour
through Montana The party was re-
ceived by large and enthusiastic
crowds at Glendive, Miles City and
Forsythe. There was an exceedingly
gratifying reception here today. In
his address Senator Fairbanks placed
particular stress on the irrigation pol
Icy of the government, paying tribute
to President Roosevelt and his admin
istration for pushing forward plans to
reclaim arid lands, particularly in
Montana. There was generous praise
by Mr.. Fairbanks for ex-senator Car
ter's fight for the irrigation policy.
He defended McKinleys attitude on
reciprocity and answered Democratic
attacking by saying tnat the late pres
ident advocated reciprocity which pre-
served the protective principle.
Senators bolivar and Carter also
spoke at the various stopping places.
