Marty, state tennis champion and

his ankle last evening while in a

the game for several weeks.
Donald Henry, who has been in the

wrenched knee at practice yesterday
and will be unable to play football any

pered last year by his weak knee but

of being able to play this year. His
loss to the squad is keenly felt and
will impair the strength of the team

FOOTBALL
Season Opens At Kenyon
Next Saturday

Gambler, O., Sept 2S-Kenyon op-
ems the football season next Saturday
afternoon playing Otterbein. From
the showing made by the Westerville
boys against Ohio State last Saturday
there is no dought but that an exciting
game will take place. Also it is the
first chance of the football enthusiasts
of Mt Vernon to witness the game
under the new rules. The game will
be much more spectacular than before
and should afford the spectators more
excitement
Kenyon team is better than it has
been for long time and Coach Pierce
expects to turn out a great team.
The students are looking forward
to this game not only because it is
the first, but because the Westeryille
aggregation is stronger than ever be
fore and hard fight is expected.

ATTEMPT
Made To Hold Up A Man

Henry Monroe Has An Ex.
citing Experience
While Returning Home On
Monday Evening
Got Away From One Bold
Hold Up Man
Only To Be ACCOsted By A
Second Man

Evidences of hold-up men have
again come to light in Mt. Vernon in
different portions of the west end of
the city. Since the outbreak sever
al months ago, no hold ups have been
reported until on Monday night when
severaI attempts were made by one
man to arrange his plans for sue
cessful hold-up. Mr.. Henry Monroe,
residing on South Jefferson street,
and who ) employed as conductor on
the Mt. Vernon Electric Ry., often
works on night run and does not
get home until late hour. This was
the case on Monday evening when Mr..
Monroe was going home at about
11:3O o'clock and had reached Adams
street where he intended to turn
south, he saw man standing in the
shadow This did not look good so
Monroe went on down a block further
to Jefferson street and the man had
passed down the allew parallel with
him and was waiting at that end of
the alley. Passing on west another
block, Mr. Monroe borrowed a revolv-
er of friend and when Harrison
street was reached, he turned south
and walked down the middle of the
street and sure enough, the man was
there and ordered Monroe to halt
Being In the middle of the road with
good gun in his hand, he evidently
thought that it would be too easy
way for man to get his money so
he ran swiftly and did not heed his
calls to halt.
This was not the end of the hold up
business for the night and the conduc-
tor encountered still another foot pad
before he reached home. South Har-
rison street is very dark after Gam
bier street is passed and it was here
that the second man made an attempt
to get in his handiwork. Monroe was
very watchful after his first expert
ence and it was not long until man
was seen to be standing behind large
residing near there, as brace for a
wire clothes line. 1t was necessary to
pass near the man so with revolver in
hand, the conductor marched along
apparently without the least thought
of molestation. The hail from the
man came as soon as he was opposite
and ordered Monroe TO throw IN his
hands. Not wishing to part with his
ready cash, he did throw up his hands
but not in the way that the robber ex-
pected, The revolver was brought to
level with the mans body and was
discharged The aim was bad and the
bullet did not find it's mark, but 1t
had the desired effect. The would-be
robber whirled and ran with all his
speed and escaped and no further at
tempts were made to get him.

HEALTH
Authorities To Investigate
Infantile Paralysis
Coshocton Times


Health officer Abbott stated to the
Times Tuesday morning that he in
tends to bring to the attention of the
city board of health, the existence of
infantile paralysis in Coshocton. The
board meets Wednesday evening and
he will ask that immediate action be
taken in the matter. 1t Is likely that
the board will Immediately communi-
cate with the State Board Of Health
as to the manner of isolating patients
Local doctors disagree whether or
not strict quarantine should be en-.
forced as some declare the malady to
be contagious and others deny 1t. 1t
Is admitted that the disease is baf-
fling one and for hundred years its
treatment has been largely expert
mental. Children above eight years
old are rarely attacked with it.
The Coshocton County Medical So
ciety Thursday afternoon will devote
considerable time to the discussion of
infantile paralysis.
There have been two cases thus far
reported in Coshocton. 1t caused the
death of little Mabel Monte, aged g.
last Friday and Rodgers Thompkins
6, now has it. He will likely recov-
er but may not regain the use of his
left arm.

Some Of the checked habutai silks
are unusually attractive. They are
to be had in wide range of colors.
AS rule afternoon hats are large,
with wide,, rolling brims, forming a
most lovely background for the face.
The thin muslin collar, appliqued
or inset with lace or embroidered mo-
tifs, is the latest conner in the round
styles.
The lace dress, whether of chantil-
ly or other hand-run laces, will UNI
doubtedly be feature of the coming
season.
Sleeves tucked in groups with
landings showing handwork separat-
ing the groups are seen in some OF the
new gowns.
There are big wired bows of chan
tilly, like graceful butterflies, which
are being shown on many of the new
millinery models.
Perhaps the most conspicuous fea-
ture in the latest waists is the use Of
chantilly lace for the main portion Of
the body and sleeves.
The first evening toilet worn in
mourning is usually of chiffon over
dull silk, lit up with a touch of jet
and hand embroidery.
The ribbon sachet flowers are used
for all purposes, for muff, corset or
garter garnitures, and for sachet,
skirt and shoulder bows.
Short dressing jackets show rib
bons at the throat, back, in front in
long loops and ends at the waist line,
which is usually rather short.
Hats are unusually attractive in
themselves, combining the charm of
simplicity and graceful lines which
will be generally becoming.
Black-bordered handkerchiefs are
worn with crepe or plain black; also
onyx jewelry, silk watch guard and
white lisse for neck and sleeves.
Metal straws-that is, a straw with
a few threads Of gold or silver woven
in it--are another new feature and a
most charming one for evening hats.

the up-turned portions of the crown,
whether this be at the back or at the
front. If the feathers are fastened,
then they come forward over the
crown, and vice versa.
Very stylish is the very large leg
horn turned back right up from the
left temple and forced in this position
by feathers that sweep over the hat.
Others have the crown covered with
flowers and coming over the brims,
are turned up straight either behind
or before. This arrangement is very
effective, carried out in lilac, wistaria,
or laburnum or sage-green, or some
quite dark-green straw shapes, lined
with crepon or surah of the same
color as the flowers.
If the brim is rolled at the side or
nearly in front, quantity of muslin
roses will sometimes be clustered over
the roll, A black straw hat trimmed
in this way has the crown covered
with pufiings of black tulle. Another
pretty way of arranging roses
either muslin or Dresden roses--is to
make them up into a close garland

back and right side of the crown,
passes over the brim (rolled on the
left side) and is continued around the
outside of it, close to the hair, to the
back. was shown a big hat of black

and they save the always somewhat
disagreeable task of washing teapot

Take a small but well stoppered
bottle and fill It with what l heard

which has been filed with water from

which, agreeable at any time, be-
comes nectar on the hot, dusty train.
And IL is so easily made!
Another luxury that will be much
appreciated should be provided before
