ACCUSED OF ENLIGHTENMENT
St. Paul German Lutheran Minister Is
Under Arrest,

Rev. David C. Lebahn, aged fifty,
travelling agent for the German Hospi-
tai association, was a prisoner in St.
Paul police court on charge of grand
larceny.
The case involves alleged swindling

although the complaint against the
accused minister specifies only $306.
Rev. Lebahn's duties were to col

of the st. Paul German hospital. Sus-
picion was aroused because of the
small amounts the collector turned
into the treasury.
Rev. Carl Knoll, president of the
association, called a special meeting

noon and as a result of the delibera-
tfons Rev. Lebahn was charged with
embezzling money he had collected.
