He stopped, but Mr.. Lafuze motioned
him to drive past, and in attempting
to do so, the horses became unmanage-
able. Mr.. Lafuze slipped and could
not recover himself in time to pre-
vent the heavy farm wagon running
over his leg. Mr.. Morris conveyed
the injured man to his home, then
came hastily to town and took DR..

LADIES' NIGHT WAS
AN ENTIRE SUCCESS
Members of the T. P. A. Were
Hosts Saturday Night.
TO BE A REGULAR FEATURE.

t. P. As have long been noted for
their hospitality. but the manner in
which they entertained their wives
and lady friends at the club rooms on
North Ninth street Saturday night,
still further demonstrates that local
members of the T. P. A. are not to be
outdone in point of hosts. About
sixty were present at Saturday nights
event and it was so entirely satisfacto-
ry that they probably will be given
once each month hereafter. Satur-
day night was the first ladies' evening
in two years. but it is generally con-
ceded that one evening each month
should be set aside for entertaining the
members wives and daughters. Cards
furnished amusement A light, but
bountiful luncheon was served.

the charge against him. Judge Fox
then sentenced the man to a term OF
from two TO twenty-one years in the
Jeffersonville reformatory. T,eis is
the speediest justice administered any
offender in Wayne county for some
time
Late Saturday night, Officers Stau-
bach and Brown were instructed to To-
cate four young girls who had been re-
ported missing from their homes since
searched throughout the east end OF
town. without success for some time.
Finally, as they were passing the home
of F. w. Kehlenbrink, 1914 Main
street, Glenn kehlenbrink hailed the
officers and told them that four young
girls had called at the house and ask
ed il the manager of the carnival conn.,
pany was boarding there. These
girls. all of whom were under sixteen
years of age. stated that they had come
from New Castle TO join one of the car
nival shows.

After receiving this information the
officers walked to the carnival
grounds, but finding no trace OF the
girls there they went into the park to
search A short time after entering
the park they saw young white girl
and colored man. Both were
promptly taken into custody Nc
Roberts confessed to the officers, aft
er first making a denial. that he had
assaulted the child. The Helms girl
confirmed the statement
The news of the arrest of McRoberts
was kept we'll suppressed by the police
for fear that public sentiment might
be aroused against the negro and
when the case was called this morning
hardly any of the people assembled in
the city court had heard of the as
sault. After the negro had entered his
plea of guilt, but little time was lost

The three other girls the officers
searched for could not be located, but
hey returned to their homes Sunday
morning and were in police court this
The girls are being ques-
Toned by Chief Bailey and 1t Is stated
hat it is the general belief that the
of the Helms girl were as
saulted by some of the attaches of the
carnival company. The assailants of
hese girls are now probably out of the

IN LIFE'S BRIEF SPAN.
Experiences, Joys and Sorrows Of ths
Human Existence.

The loves and friendships of indi1
viduals partake of the frail characterl
of human life, and are brief and un1
certain. The experience of human
life may be shortly summed up: Al
little loving and a good deal OF sor1
rowing; some bright hopes and many
bitter disappointments; some gor1
geous Thursdays when the skies areI
bright and the heavens blue, whenI
Providence, bending over us in bless'I
ings, glads the heart almost to mad
ness; many dismal Fridays, when tnej
smoke of torment beclouds the mlndI
and undying sorrows gnaw upon tneI
heart; some high ambitions and many
Waterloo defeats, until the heart pei
comes like charnel house filled WIN
dead affections, embalmed in holyl
but sorrowful memories; and tnenI
the chord is loosed, the golden Dowil
is broken, the individual life-a clouu'|
a vapor, passes away.-Matthew HAZE
