Why Shells EIv STRAIGHT.

Many people wonder why the coue
shaped projectiles IN their flight
through the air do not wabble but
drive straight ahead. This Is easily
explained. Round the bottom Of the
shell IS narrow band OF copper which
varies in width according to the size OF
the projectile. Being made OF soft
metal, this band is cut by the steel
riting OF the gun on the shock Of ex.
plosion. This action causes the shell
to revolve With lightning rapidity. with
the result that 1t keeps steady during
its flight through the sir. - London

Waverly Man Sues E. S.
Moon for Damage.
DEAL MISUEPRESEN1ED
Dams Claims He was Eu.
chred Out of Home.
Progress in the Lucas Trial is Very
Slow and Trial will Last for
Several Days.

Through a petition filed in Com
mon Pleas court, Tuesday, r.. S.
Moon, a prominent local real estate
man is named defendant in a dam
age suit involving the sum of 81 500.
The petition was filed by Il. J. Dains
of Waverly, Ohio.
The plaintiff sets forth in his petit
tion that on July 10th, 1907, he was
owner of a house and one acre of
land, also a horse and buggy, val
ued in all at $1,000. The property
was located at Centervile. He also
declares that on July 10th, 1907, the
defendant was owner of a farm con-
sisting of $50 acres located in Ben
ton township, Pike county.
Dains alleges that the defendant
e. S. Moons fraudulently and with
intent to deceive him, represented the
farm to be worth $500 when in re-
ality it was only worth $500. The
plaintiff also holds that the defendant
represented that the farm was COW
cred with fine oak timber which
was false. As result of these mis-
representations, the plaintiff declares
that he exchanged his house and lot,
horse and buggy for the farm and in
addition gave mortgage note Of
800 on the farm which amount the
defendant held was the difference in
value ON the trade,
After the deal the plaintiff says that
the defendant dlsposed of the proper
ty at centervtlle ahdedisposed of the
notes selling them to parties innocent
of the alleged fraudulent deal.
Because Of the fraudulent represen-
tations of the defendant, the plain
tiff claims to have been damaged to
the extent Of 81 500 and prays that
the court render judgment for this
amount.
