LITTLE BOY MISSING
Eddie Roberts Ten Years of Age Has Not
Been Seen Since Noon on Monday

Where is Eddie Roberts? This is a
question which is puzzling the police
and causing no end of anxiety to the
friends and relatives of the boy. The
boy is ten years of age, and he disap-
peared from his home on Grogan street
at noon Monday and since that time
no trace of the youth can be found. He
had been in the best of spirits and had
had no trouble with any of the mem
bers of the family. All Monday night
the sisters and brothers of the boy
we're searching for him, and late in the
evening they asked the aid of the po-
lice.
The officers seem to think that the
Roberts boy ran away from home, and
they have asked officers in other cities
to look for him.

ACTION DISMISSED

Attorney William j.. Piero, who was
charged with securing money from
Constable NanKirk'by false pretense,
appeared before Mayor Smith Satur,
day and the case was dismissed. The
money was secured in an attachment
proceeding brought for client of the
attorney, and sos of the 800 paid
over. When an action was brought to
secure the balance, Constable Van
Kirk took the ground that Piero's
client was not entitled, to the money
and that what had been paid was ex-
torted by threats. There are several
more chapters to the controversy
which will be aired later VanKirk is
resting under charge of embezzle-
ment and he in turn has charged J. B..
Lemons with perjury.

an ExeCutrix.

The heirs of Nicholas Ripple, late OF
Massillon, have filed petition in pro-
bate court to remove the executrix OF
his estate, katherine Ripple. They af-
firm that she has sold and disposed of
personal property included in the es-
tate to the amount of $1,000, and that
she has refused to file bin Of sale
They say that she has collected and
sold promissory notes to the amount
of $1,000, and has refused to account
for same. They affirm that she has
spent the money resulting from the
above sales and has failed to ever
give an account of the portion due
them. She is now in an insolvent con-
dition, and the heirs fear that If the
estate Is allowed to remain in her
hands, they will be deprived Of their
total inheritance. They therefore ask
that she be removed and proper
person be appointed to fill the vacancy
and that she be required to give full
and accurate account of that portion
of the estate, which she has disposed
of.

DIVORCE EVIL
Attacked by Evangelist at
Dueber Avenue.

Richard Albright, the evangelist
who is working at the Dueber ave-
nue. M. L. church, attacked the di-
vorce evil in his discourse Sunday
morning, declaring that the only time
that divorce was warranted was when
1t was in accordance with the condi-
tions laid down by Christ in his SER
mon on the mount; that the easy d.
vorce laws of the Jewish people and
of the present day in Ohio were not
authorized. He stated that in this
state in one year there were $500 di-
vorces granted, and that in many in.
stances 1t was upon trivial grounds.
In the Stark county workhouse was
man who had married and been divorc.
ed three times and had tried to get
the fourth wife when he was arrest
ed and sent up.
The entire discourse was based up
on the sermon on the mount and
when he reached the passage which
says that IF man sue you at the law
and take your coat, let him have thy
cloak also,' Mr.. Albright said that in
these days people did not observe that
law, but when they were sued they
took all the exemptions and then went
into bankruptcy. They jump back
of a man-made law in violation of a
God-made law said he. The evange-
list will remain during the present
week.
