TWO City Employees Who Stole
The Old Curfew Still
In Jail.
PROBABLY WILL BE FINED i:
Men May Get on With Light Penalty
But Stigma Of Act Hangs Heavy
On Department.

Daniel Il. Keith and Charles Hem
minyer, the two members OF. the fire
department arrested yesterday for
stealing the old bell from the clock
tower on the police station, may get
or with O light penalty after oil. It
ia understood that the charge of grand
larceny originally filed against the men
viii be reduced TO that OF petit larceny:
that they will plead guilty. and that
the sentence which will be left with the
court Will be q light one-probably
fine. Fq
Both men are no longer members OF
the fire department. Chief Glore yes-
iterday put men In their places and
announced their discharge. The aged
mother OF Keith has taken the arrest
or her favorite son very badly. She 10
under tho doctors care. The wife and
children are likewise suffering much
from "Dannys" fall.
The members of the fire department
IRE also feeling very badly over the
fate of Keith owing to his good record.
He has many friends In the depart-
sment ana they ARE anxioualy awaiting
the outcome. In the city jail Keith
IS sobbingly contrite. He says that he
is sorry but states that he thought the
old bell was Of no use. and that with
his family and other expenses. he could
not resist the temptation to make a
little money on the side. Hemninger
is stoically silent on the matter. Neither
man drinks and they have no other
bad habits as known.
It developed today that the old bell
was not intact. It used to be the
custom to ring the curfew from this
bell and when the clapper broke n
sledge hammer was used. This crack
cd the metal and It. has been gradual
Nv falling into pieces. Some Of these
we're taken by the fire department
and they have made smaller bells out
OF the metal The reason tho charge
against the two men Will be reduced
to tho minor offense is because Of the
value of the old bell MS 1t was. W.
While there are those who think the
men should be dealt with lightly 9TH
ers think that the full penalty OF the
law should be eSacted. The crime was
n deliberate and premeditated one, and
Keith In jail this morning stated that
he thought 1t would never be found
out. It Is probable that the men will
be able to give bond this afternoon n

A SPLENDID CONCERT

The commencement concert on Mon
day night. like every such perform
ance since MIR. Rigby came here, was
the best ever given in Berea. Too
much cannot be said in praise Of the
work done by the singers, and of the
car eful training and helpful leader
ship which has made possible such
triumphs as theirs.
The muac given was most of it
new to Berea. and as difficult as II
~ beautiful The Sanctus and Bene-
dictus were performed In such style
that nothing but the sonorous Latin
word was lacking to give the effect
produced in the finest churches. The
work in the Nunc Dimmittis, the Bri-
dial Chorus from the Rose Maiden
and Hall Us, We Free, also was more
than first class. But II is in the
soloists that Berea is most fortunate.
Miss Ambrose's rendering on the
Agnus Del. and later of the great
Il Know that My Redeemer Liveth'
was treat such as is seldom enjoy
cd anywhere, and Miss Cornelius
singing of "Genevieve" will haunt the
minds of her hearers for days, and
brought forth storms of applause. Mr..
Rigby's rendering OF the solos in the
Sanctus and of Every Valley was
superior TO that often heard in more
pretentious PERFORMANCES.
One of the prettiest features of the
evening came at the end. when the
members OF the chorus Threw the
carnations they had been wearing at
Mr. Rigby. The work and thought
taken by the trainer OF such a chorus
is often overlooked, and il was very
pleasing that the singers should
make this public recognition of their
debt to him.
the success OF the evening is due 10
Miss Campbell whose accompaniment
was of its usual high order-so high.
in fact, that Berea has almost come
TO take it for granted. Simply as a
matter of physical endurance her
playing for the entire concert Of
nearly an hour and half was remark
able. and when 1t is remembered with
what perfect wisdom she did her worl
meeting the needs of each piece and
of each soloist, her performance pass
es beyond the possibility of adequate
praise.

BOLTING TRACK MEET Slow
The three schools that withdrew from
the intercollegiate track meet held
May 18th had a meet of their own
recently. Central University easily
took first, scoring "a points. George
town took 80 points and Pennsylvania
made 26. Central took everything in
the weight events but had to divide
laurels for jump and dashes. Long,
c. Us crack jumper and hurdler and
McGeever and Fowler, +. us stand
bys, were not in the meet. The day
was excellent for the meet COMPETE
ton was keen in track and jumping
events. 1t seems evident that If the
big meet had been run off as last
year these three would not have af-
fected the records in more than q
couple of events, nor would il have
seriously changed the standing of the
schools in the other meet. Transyl-
vania would have taken the pole vault
from State University, Mediation clear
ing 10 feet and inches. Seelbach of
c. U. might have taken the discus
with the modest throw of 1O5 feet.
In other events firsts and seconds
would largely have been divided be-
tween State and Berea, giving Berea
a much closer second than she got
last year, and Central only fair
third.

Hard Fight on Between People and
Railroads.&c. Comes to Front
with Smashing Blows at Big Con-
eerns-Raiiroad Bill Passed, A Vic
tory for insurgents.
Washington, ID. c.,
June a, 1910.

June 4, 1910.
War to the Death!
More clearly than ever before has
the issue of ''The people or the trusts"
been put to the front In this weeks
developments here The railroads are
taking the lead for the forces Of
predatory wealth. President Taft is
taking the lead for the people. This
last named fact Is a great surprise
to the railroad and the rich men who
thought their Aldrich had him bro
ken and trained, but it is nothing un-
looked for to the people who have
really understood Mr.. Taft's plans.
The fight has come on the attempt
OF the railroads to boost freight rates.
While Congress has been hammering
away on the railroad bill, the roads
have gradually come to the conclu-
sion that they had better watch out
The Insurgents have been sharpening
the claws of the bill every time they
got a chance, and there were several
chances. Especially were the rail-
roads excited over the plan TO make
all increases in rates wait for The
approval of the Interstate Commerce
Commission. The roads don't like
the Commission.
But there was a way out Of course.
They decided to raise rates before
the law went into effect. So they got
together and published a new list of
rates, making an increase which will
amount to nearly ten per cent on
all kinds of goods. This means over
$3.50. 000, 900 a year more profit for the
roads. With that to fall back on,
they wouldt mind very much If the
Commission didn't let them raise any
higher. They wouldn't need TO.
Pres. Tart stopped the game He
had Attorney General Wickersham get
into court. and get out an injunction
against the railroads This stopped
the raising of the rates, at least I'M
I'll the courts get thru fighting the
case. That will be some time. OF course
the railroads ro.red mo rogue eer
felt the halter draw, with good opin-
ion OF the law" The railroads holler-
ed that they would be ruined They
couldn't buy new equipment or make
repairs, and SO forth. They engineered
"bogie" panic in Wall street. Also,
they jumped on Taft and the news
papers and Congress, and said very
sassy things. They were right peevish.
But they had no idea of obeying
the law, either. They got their law
yer to devise ways to get around
Taft's blockade. and are now at it.
Taft and Wickersham are still block
ing as hard as they can. 1t will be a
pretty fight-with the right of the
railroad to steal as the bone of con-
tention.
In the meanwhile Congress has been
keeping up its fight over the railroad
bill And after all 1t is in Congress
that the most important work is go
ing on, because no matter what the
railroads do now, a law can be fix
ed that will get them sooner or later.
But the fight over the railroad bill
has been made hotter by this action
of the roads. Several amendments
have been passed in the Senate that
would have been defeated IL it had
not been for the feeling created by
the action of the railroads.

RUSH FOR ALASKA COLD:-The
greatest stampede for gold since the
rush OF 1897 Is likely to follow the
opening OF the new Iditarod fields.
IL Is estimated that 5.0e0 prospectors
will arrive this summer. and they
are probably doomed To disappoint-
ment. The camp will support only 1Oe
and only seven miles Of pay dirt have
been located.
MISSIONARIES IN DANGER:-Th'
smouldering hatred OF China against
foreigners seems likely 10 break forth
into flame that will duplicate the bor-
rors OF the Boxer rebellion. Natives
in Nanking have defiled the walls
OF the American consulate and post
ed placards to lnsugate an uprising
against all foreigners. An outbreak
south OF the Yangtse kiang seems
likely. IL is hoped that the u. s..
German and Japanese war vessels
near Ranking will be able TO pro
tect foreigners in that city.

STOCK EXCHANGE FURRY
Lowest prices of the year were re-
corded in the New York stock eX-
change last Friday. over 1900 900

TAFT OUT WEST:-Pres. Taft
has been taking a western trip and
has made some strong speeches justi-
flying the belief OF the common people
an him In Detroit he declared him
self strongly in favor OF reform and
SAYS there must be conservation. On
another occasion he denounced muck
raking' and declared his belief that
II Is a phase OF modern journalism
which will soon pass away. The Presi'
dent says that socialism is the big
gest problem before the people and
that the Republican party should be
trusted with the solution of that
problem, than which we have had no
greater In the history of the coun-
try"
TAFT BEATS RELATIONSHIPS
Taft's action to prevent the railroads
from raising freight rates has sue
ceeded beyond the expectation af all.
The railroads have agreed TO give up
their plan II he will withdraw the
suits he has started, and they pro-
mise to make no more attempts TO
raise the rates till the new railroad
law goes into effect This is a great
victory which Mr.. Taft has won for
the people. b
