BAN ON WOMEN.
Government Finds Men More
Suitable for it's Work and
Will Hire No Women.

Women stenOgraphers appar-
emily are no longer wanted in
the government service. This
announcement was made by the
civil service commission in an
effort ITO put a stop to a steadily
increasing flood OF letters from
women throughout the country,
who seek information about an
examination for stenographers to
tDe held in the near future i'm al.
the states and territories. This
examination IS for the purpose
OF recruiting only men stenog-
raphers and typists, the demand
for whom the civil service COM
mission has been unable to meet.
Practically all the various de-
partments of the government are
seeking to replace women stem
ograpiers with men on the
ground that the latter are more
amenable to discipline and can
be drafted into other kinds of
work more readily.

HORSE

Cut A Peculiar CapGr On
The ViaduCt

A rather peculiar occurrence took
place just south of the viaduct Mon.
day morning at about eight o'clock
when Mr.. Dicks, salesman for the Ma.
tional Biscuit Co, was starting on e
drive to a neighboring town. Just as
the G. A. G. c. switch was reached,
South Vernon street car came to
stop at the de-railer and the horse,
being of an excitable nature, became
frightened and reared up on its hind
feet. Becoming overbalanced, the az.
imal fell over backwards in such
manner that it was turned completely
around in the shafts facing the driver.
The odd fact about the accident was
that when the horse fell, the shafts
were not broken nor was the harness
The animals mouth was slightly cat
by the fall but aside from that, no
damage was done.

POSSE
In Search Of Escaped Horse
Thief Green
Spend Sunday Night In Mt.
Vernon
Having Practically Abandoned
The Chase
dfeen Thought To be In
COShOCtOn County
Officers Tell Most Interest
ing Story

With only five hours sleep since last
Wednesday, Frank Henke, deputy
sheriff of Lorain county, Walter H.
Watts and F. v. Dawson, patrolmen
from Elyria, and j. G.Tryan, chauffer,
arrived in Mt. Vernon shortly after
$3.50 Sunday evening, enroute to their
home in Elyria, after having practical
ly abandoned the chase for Robert
Green, the former bank official and
horse thief, who escaped from the Lor-
ain county Jail at Elyria last Monday.
The officers are positive in their be-
lief, however, that Green is in hiding
in the hills of Coshocton county, but
Deputy Sheriff Henke says it is i'm
possible to capture the man in such
locality. Although the officers have
departed for their homes the hills of
Coshocton county are being patrolled
by the natives and there is a possibil-
ity that Green may come out of hiding
and be captured by the posse.
The party in this city Sunday even
ing is the second that has been in
search of Green, the first having left
Elyria last Monday under the direc-
party in Mt. Vernon Sunday evening
left Elyria Wednesday as a sort of re-
lief for the first party and have been
on duty ever since. The members of
the party slept but five hours since
Wednesday up until Sunday night
when they enjoyed a good nights rest
at the Curtis hotel.
Deputy Sheriff Henke stated to the
Banner representative that the last
seen of Green was at Nashville, Holm
es county, although the party in the
automobile the last three or fuor days
found enough evidence to convince
them that they have been on the right
trail of the man and that he is some
where in this vicinity.
Friday night the officers were In
New Castle, Coshocton county, and
intended to remain there all night.
They were comfortably in bed for the
night when a message came that
strange man was seen travelling the
New Castle road. The party arose
Immediately and started in the auto
mobile in search of the man. Com
ing upon him on the highway they
found him to be a veterinary surgeon
of one of the villages making late
call.
All day Saturday the posse search
ed the hills of Coshocton county with
out avail and In fact all of Saturday
night. Sunday the deputy sheriff re-
ceived tip that the prisoner was
seen In the vicinity of Utica The
party went Immediately to that vii
lage, but could find no trace of the
man there. 1t was therefore deter
mined to abandon the search for the
present at least and the party came on
to this city and after resting up Sun
day night left Monday morning for
their home in Elyria.

the arrest of Green and If he is in this
