RICHARD SHARP WENT WITH
AN UNKNOWN MAN
WEDNESDAY NOON
And Has Not Been Seen Since-Was
Asked to Go Pick Berries in the
Country-Police Notified

Another Richmond person has. been
put on the missing list, this time a
boy.
The disappearance of Richard

since Wednesday noon. The par
ents are nearly distracted. but are
keeping up steady hunt for the miss
known in the least.
Wednesday noon the boy, who lives
at 222 South Second street, went to
the corner of Fifth and Main streets.
While he was standing there man
asked him if he would not go to the
country to pick berries. OF course
he would. He and the man left and
the boy has not been seen since. The
parents, thinking that he would re-
turn soon, waited until this morning
and then notified the police. The po-
lice are working hard on the case and
expect to find the boy soon. The case
only accentuates two things. for one
Of which the boy is to blame. the
other, the parents, namely: never
speak to an unknown man or 90 with
him and always Immediately notify
the police in case of this kind. Any

The Ellis Case.
Nothing new has developed today,
| although rumors of all kinds are
rife. The family and friends hope for
some news soon.
The following circular was gotten
out by the police department and sent
out over the country:
There might be a woman with
him-tall, slender and rather good
looking. age about 25 years. dark hair,
large eyes. good style. A woman of
this description left the same date
and was seen in company with Mr..
Ellis at noon that day.
There are a number of things
which will aid in the search in other
cities. Mr.. Ellis had distinctively
clerical appearance, and wore clothes
indicative of his profession. One of
the articles which the officers believe
will aid in identifying him is the gold
watch which he carried. 1t was pre-
sented to him by. the teachers of
Grant county when he was superin-
tendent of the schools of that county

men who are in the state continually,
and in active touch politically, who
would have liked to go after the jul
nior senator, but they did not, and
the acumen that made Reid so sue

strained him from entering the lists

Henry c. Starr, prominent rail-
road attorney of Richmond, who is
managing Congressman Hemenway's
Senatorial campaign, was in the city
today, and it was inferred that he had
come to take hand in the Marion
County legislative fight, although he
said that he was in the city merely to
appear before the State Tax Board.
At the same time, however, he may be
planning to kill two birds with one
stone, as the Methodist preacher said
he would do when he went to confer
ence to get better assignment and
to find him a wife.

THE GOOD OLD SQUIRE
Was Later Called Upon to Issue a
Warrant for the Arrest of the
Fellow.

Yesterday the Palladium noted the
New Lebanon, was robbed and that
blood hounds were on the trail. The
same fellow played a trick on Mag
istrate Edwards, who helped him to
escape. The Dayton Press speaks
about it as follows:
Deputy probate clerk, Magistrate
J. w. Edwards, Of New Lebanon, had
more than his share of excitement
this morning and unwittingly aided
an alleged criminal to escape. While
at work in the office a man named
Edward Piatt, residing near New Leb-
anon, came to him and asked for so
cents to enable him to go to Green
vile. The squire gave him the money
and thought no more of the matter.
About a half hour afterwards a resi-
dent of New Lebanon hurried in and
asked Magistrate Edwards to issue a
warrant for the arrest of Piatt, the
man who had just left the office.
Piatt is charged with robbing the
chicken house of Rev. Ridenour last
night, and it is said that the blood
hounds, that were summoned from
this city, stopped at his house.
The man is said to have gone to
the home of a brother at Greenville
and this afternoon several men armed
with the warrant issued by the mag
istrate went after him.

DIVORCE LAWS
OF INDIANA
ATTACKED IN SPEECH BY HON.
VIM. P. BREEN
AT FT. WAYNE MEETING
Public Sentiment Forged Into An
Antagonist Against Divorce. -
State Bar Association.
AT FT. WAYNE MEETING

Hon. William P. Breen, who is
president of the State Bar Associa-
ton, and one Of the foremost lawyers
in the State, the one from Indiana
whom President Roosevelt selected to
represent the State at the Bar meet
ing in st. Louis, yesterday in
speech at the meeting in Ft. Wayne
attacked the divorce laws of the State.
In part he spoke as follows:
Marriage is the means, the family
is the end,' he said ''both must be
sacredly preserved. Marriage is,
therefore, indispensably necessary to
the life of the State-the only source
of It's life blood.

Of children of tender age is the real
issue, who looks thoughtfully and
philosophically at the exercise of the
judicial power which in that case
takes from out the control of a faith
er baby girl and from out the con-
troll of a mother little boy-her own
flesh and blood-must ask himself.
is there no way for the avoidance Of
the disruption of this family? Can
not something be done to prevent the
girl from losing the home influence of
the father and the boy from losing the
home influence Of the mother? Is the
system right which dismantles the
home and deprives the child of one
parent?
If each father and mother were
to speak their convictions, fashioned
by their cooler reason, would they say
that their separation was worth the
sacrifice Of trial of marital differ
ences before the world-the sacrificeot
home and the ever present sacrifice OF
the home companionship of their owr
children? Would they say, in thei1
heart Of hearts, that that system
which they invoked and which brought
this train Of untoward circumstances
was right?
"Public sentiment is gradually be-
ing forged into an antagonist agains

against the great social evil which i.

After introduction, Mrs. Nation
said it was a pleasure to meet re-

liquor and cigarettes. "Some re-
porters come into my presence" ssid
Mrs Nation, "and there is a very
strong smell of tobacco.

"But,' said Mrs. Nation, "We
