Attractive Numbers Added
To Assembly Program
Lectures By Senator DOlliVGf
And Hon. J. D. Long

IIiawatha assembly, which opens on
July 25. will go far ahead of any Chau-
tauqua that will be held in Ohio this
season 1t seems that the very fact
started on the bookings, (due to the
fact that the park question was not
settled until latel, is working to the
advantage of the assembly. Hereto
fore bookings have been made through
some bureau, but this year several bu-
reaus are being used and the cream"
of attractions are being secured.
One lecture that will be of more than
ordinary interest will be by Hon. John
ID. Long, whose subject will be "Our
Fading Flag-How to Restore Its Lus-
ire to the Seven Seas" The ship sub
sidy question, with which this lecture
deals, is vital one and is one of the
will be here on August 3. Judge ]. B.
Waight has consented to act as chair,
man OF this meeting.
On August the assembly patrons
will have the privilege of hearing Sen
ator Dolliver of Iowa, one of the lead
ing men in the rank of insurgents,
who will speak on "a Poor Boys
Country"
These two lectures will certainly be
worth the price charged for the whole
assembly season. Each of these will
be of educational value.

STORMS
Kill FOrty-FivG People In
Europe

Berlin, June 10-Reports received
today say that more than forty-five
persons have been killed by the ter
rife electrical storms which have
swept Germany and Russia. The war
department today ordered that all ma
neuvers be abandoned until the storms
have passed. This is the result of the
killing of several soldiers at various
points by lightning.
The damage to crops Is much heav-
Ter than first reported and the mon
etary loss probably will be more than
$l,O0O000. the Rhine country being
one of the chief sufferers.

HOW TO BECOME A SUSPECT

There are places and occasions when the hip-pocket seals the veal or woe Of a citizen. The man who carries a pistol in his hip pocket Is a suspect the moment it is discovered.
 IL wss only the other day that a young man with a bulging hip-pocket was unceremoniously seized in the ante-room of the White house, and his pistol was taken from him and he was held as a prisoner. It was rather an unpleasant experience if the young man intended doing no harm, but who knows what a young man intends to do who goes armed2 In the first place, fl Is fear which prompts him to have defensive weapons ready, and 1t is usually fear which prompts a misuse of them It is not a personal right to carry arms. but in most communities it is . penal offense.
 There is no disputing the fact that rhs regular carrier of concealed weap- ons is the criminal class. and the only excusable carriers of defensive weap- cns are those persons who must meet them or know that they are upon their track
 The man with the handy weapon too often finds himself indicted for man slaughter or murder. The fear which prompts him to carry the weapon too Bften incites him to use 1t unwiselyT
 There Is no reason why orderly and peacs-lorins citizens should go armed -or why those who do should feel egsrieved at being classed as sus- bects and dealt with accordingly
