Cold Day for Celina

After shivering joyfully in the winter
breeze through six innings of exciting
ball at Wapakoneta last Sunday, a big
crowd of fans from this city were disap-
pointed in the last half of the seventh
inning to see little wobble, bit OF
tough luck, and Sidney umpire cause
the newly organized Celina team to suf-
fer defeat at the hands of Wapak Reds.
Wapakoneta scored i'll the first inning
on a single and a two-bagger. A second
run was stopped by a perfect throw from
center by Red Weisser, which cut Kin
ninger down at the plate.
Celina scored two in the third-De-
Weese singled. L. Weisser followed
suit, DeWesse scoring on tumble of the
hit. c. Myers sacrificed and Bethel
scored Weisser by singing to center. ,
Wapak tied the score in the fourth and
won out in the seventh. Score:

CRUSHER PLANT
BRANCHING OUT

John Karch has installed a 14-ton
narrow-gauge locomotive at the Beaver
stone quarry, a few miles west of town, to
move the stone from the quarry to wagon
loading points. The engine was shipped
to this city last week and conveyed by
truck to the quarry. John has a big
bunch of money tied up in this business
and now seems in a fair way to get some
of it back. He has opened up an indus
try of considerable importance to the
community, but up to the present time it
has not received the encouragement it
has merited There is 10 necessity for

LOLA IS TOLD
TO HIKE P. D. D.

The Lima Times-D Democrat of last Mon
day had the following to say Of an arrest
in that city of former Celina woman:
"Oficers Mccoy, Stewart and Cole
swooped down on a room in the CONNER
cial block about midnight Saturday night,
following a tip received at headquarters,
and arrested Mrs. Lola Rhodes, aged 81,
Celina seumstress, and VIM, Martin, a
bartender for Norman Bryan, soloonist
Bryan arrived at the police station a
short time after the arrest and secured
the release of the pair by depositing SIS
bond for each of them
"The couple pleaded guilty before
Mayor Shook, and were fined $40 and
costs each. An additional sentence of 80
DAYS in Jail was imposed upon the Rhodes
woman, but this suspended by the mayor
on condition that she leave town at once.

food commissioner, and his admins
tration has set a new record for eff
cheney in the history Of the depart.
ment Spending $4,000 less the first
year than did his predecessor during
the last year of his administration,
the revenue to the Golfers of the
state as the result of the work of the
department have been $4,000 more.
He suddenly sprang into national
prominence when he turned the tide
at the Duluth convention of food Of
ficials in July, 1911, for DR.. Harvey
Wiley and pure food. At the time he
was busily engaged putting on an ex-
hibit at tine Ohio State Fair showing
the work of his department with
view to educating the public to be
more discriminatiYe in their buying
and had commissioned his predeces-
sor to represent him. The conven-
tion was under the control of the food
adulterators, who sought to get rid OF
DR.. Wiley by throwing the influence Of
the association against him at the
very time President Taft had under
consideration the charges of irregu-
larity in hiring chemist, as trumped
up by Solicitor McCabe and approved
by Attorney General Wickersham; so
they refused to seat Strodes dele
gate. Strobe was wired. Realizing
the seriousness Of the situation to the
cause of pure food, he made hurried
trip to Duluth, arriving just in time
to turn the tables in Dr. Wiley's favor
This action, no doubt, influenced the
president to exonerate DR.. Wiley of
these charges little later.
If President Taft had dismissed Dr.
Wiley's prosecutors, Solicitor Nc
Cabe and Attorney General Wicker
sham, agents of the food interests
and dismissed the board created by
Roosevelt to outvote Wiley and re-
verse him in all his important rul-
ings, and then have restored DR.
Wiley to full control, as was in
tended by the act of 1906, he would
today have stood in much better
light with the consumers, who are
now thoroughly awakened.
While wilful and persistent viola
tors of the food and drug laws haze
been vigorously prosecuted, yet M
Strobe has devoted the greater par'
of his time in trying to be helpful -
all who desire to keep within tha
law, while without such help thcr
might unintentionally become viola
tors of the law.

"The deadening effect of monopoly
Is illustrated by its arrest Of inven-

substantially monopoly of all the es-

competitor so formidable that the
trust, in fragrant violation of law, paid
$5,000,000 to buy him out. Thomas G.
