A THRILLING
CAPTURE MADE
Caledonia People Catch AL
legged Burglars.
One man WOUNDED
His Ankle Bone is Shattered
by a Bullet.
County Authorities Think the Pair
are the Men Who Made Raid in
0strander Last Friday.

The town of Caledonia was thrown
into a high fever of excitement Sat
urday night when practically all Of
the citizens turned sleuth and traced
down two bold burglars who attempt
ed to enter the store of Idon and Ly-
man After chasing The miscreants
for several miles and all the time
keeping up terrible bombardment Of
pistol bullets the pursuers finally COW
cred their burglars and marched them
to prison.
The men captured were Earl Ram
sey, aged 20, who broke Jail here four
years ago, being held awaiting his
trial on a charge Of burglary and
Edward Delaney aged about forty,
who claimed to be from Fostoria.
! The story of the capture is an ex-
ceedingly unusual and interesting one.
Early Saturday evening two strangers
entered the Hanlcy hotel and reglst-
cred as George James and John De-
lain. They were assigned to room
and later moved a quantity Of bag
gage to the apartment.
About o'clock in the evening a
woman telephoned to Philip Meister
town marshalE and warned him that
there were tfo strangers in the vii.
lage and that their intent was to rot
the ldon and Lyman harware store
and the Caledonia bank. When Mar.
shall Melster inquired as to the name
Of the party delivering the valuable
information, she declined answering
and hung up the telephone receiver.
Immediately upon receiving the
strange warning, the Marshall in.
formed the bank authorities and the
hardware store proprietors of the af'
fair. Thinking that it would be best
to keep a close watch on the uptown
districts, Marshall Nleister secured
Frank Bayles as company and they
fortified themselves in the K. OF p.
hall which overlooks the business por-
! ton of the town.
| About 1 o'clock Marshall NIeister
saw two shabbily dressed men come
tout of an alley and disappear around

DISCOURSE
ON THOUGHT"
Delivered by Right Reverend
VIM. A, Leonard.
TIkCC &c C0NCJQMED
CLASS IS CONFIRMED
At the Morning Service al
st. Paul's Church.
Large Audience Hears Most Able
Discourse From the Lips Of
Bishop Leonard.

A large congregation gathered at
st. Pauls church, Sunday morning
to hear the Right Reverend William
"a. Leonard, of Cleveland, bishop OF
the Ohio diocese who delivered the
sermon and confirmed a number OF
new members of the church.
Thought" was the subject taken
by the bishop who following his GUS
tomarmy plan talked to the congrega-
tion without any Oratorical effect. He
talked with the same earnest con-
vincing manner that has won him
a place in the hearts of Marion
, church goers.
The speaker cited a number of def
initions of the word thought as given
by prominent students of the day,
saying that all are elusive and are
not logical He said in part:
"It Is the thinking OF evil thoughts
that casts the reflection on ones char
acter. Though we have many good
pure thoughts, our characters are
spoiled by thoughts of the impure.
Meditation, | am sorry to say, is al
most n lost art. How many of us
sit down and meditate--lnok into
the innermost recesses of our hearts
for at least five minutes each day?
Very few, | am sure.
"While thoughts to the ordinary
observer are as Opaque as a bee hive,
to God they are AZ clear as though
the hive were OF glass, the bees
passing in and out were the thoughts
that enter and emerge from our
minds. He knows all of the inside
workings of our minds and every
thing that we think or do.
Lent Is season to revive the lost
art of meditation and | want everyone
to stop and meditate-to pray-and
to ask the Lord for help in daily
affairs.'
In conclusion Bishop Leonard spoke
Iof Christ's temptations while on
earth He said chat Christs tempta-
Itions were much greater because he
came TO earth In the form of man,
and that he not only resisted the
Temptations Of the devil but will
help us to resist them.
Following the sermon the beautiful
Ily impressive confirmation service of
the Episcopal church was conducted
by the bishop who talked to the class
for a few minutes on the subject,

X. Clark Jr., and Mr. and Mrs. r.

with clothing and necessaries and all
cases are thoroughly Investigated be-
fore help is given.
"There are many needy people"
said the captain, and we have not
enough supplies to give all of them
as much as they need. The people Of
Marion do not seem to realize the ex-
act condition of many of their fell
low citizens, | wish that those who
have plenty would bring supplies and
clothing to the Salvation Army hall
and they may be sure that the sup
plies will be judic!ously distributed
among the needy poor"
