VIM. Bennett Of Sandusky Commits
Suicide While Visiting Near
This City.

a temporary nt of dependency,
coupled with a weakening brain, caus-
ed William Bennett to commit suicide
by drinking carbolic acid early Mon
dav morning.
Bennett, who resided on farm four
miles north and one and one. half
miles west of Peck, drove to the home
of his father-in.law, John Harmer, two
miles southwest of Yale Sunday
morning to be present at the celebra.
tion OF the latter's birthday Mrs.
Bennett and their eight months old
child had been visiting at the home of
her father for some time previous. AL
though having had some alteration
with a neighbor before leaving, Ben.
nett was in good spirits all day Sunday
and no idea was entertained by any of
the family OF his suicidal intentions.
Arising early Monday morning Ben.
nett told his wife that he was going to
the barn and asked her to join him
there when she arose. Shortly after,
Mr.. Harmer went to the barn to water
some horses and noticed Bennett lying
upon a pile of hay but his suspicious
were not aroused until some ten min.
utes later when he addressed the man
and he did not respond. 1t was then
that the awful discovery was made.
An empty eight ounce bottle labeled
carcolic acid and loaded revolver Law
on box near the dead man. DR..
1uill was Immediately summoned but
the man had been dead some few min
utes before being found by Harmer.
Fortunately Mrs. Bennett had not
reached the barn before the unfortun-
ate man had ended his life for it is be-
lieved that her husband, being men.
tally deranged, had planned first to kill
his wife and then himself. He had
doubtless waited in the barn for his
wife but the advent of Harmer upon
the scene spoiled his plans so he drank
the acid and left the revolver un.
touched. Mrs. Bennett was Frustrated
with grief upon learning of the death
of her husband. Ii is known that Mr..
and Mrs. Bennett were much attached
to each other and no reason can be
given for the formers intended murder
and his own suicide other than that his
mind was unbalanced.
Bennett, who was 30 years of age,
was married to Leila Harmer, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. John Harmer, two
years ago, and although she was l3
years his junior, they had always en-
joyed the best of happiness. Tha re-
mains were taken to the home near
Peck and the funeral held Wednesday.
lnterment in the Peck cemetery.

Bonding Proposition Carries.

The proposition to bond the city for
$4,000 to provide for the erection of a
stand pipe, installation of new boilers
and other extensions and improve
ments to the present water works
system of the City of Yale carried the
city by vote of 131 to 80. The ques-
ton carried in every ward except the
third where it was defeated, the total
returns from the city being sufficient
to pass the proposition however. The
third ward polled light vote both on
the bonding proposition and the pri-
mary election which was rather
strange as this ward is the largest in
the city.
Just why the bonding proposition
should have lost out in the third ward
is a mystery, as little opposition to the
measure was anticipated from this
quarter. AS is familiar to every one
who is acquainted with conditions
within the city, the third ward is the
one that would most benefit from the
proposed changes in the present water
works system and it is indeed strange
feature of the special election that so
many in this part of town should tie
the ropes around their own necks by
voting no" AS result of the elec-
ton however there is all the more
credit coming to the voters of the sec
ond and first wards because of the
correct and progressive stand which
they took toward the proposition,
especially as they will not receive
nearly the benefits from the changes
that the residents of the north end will.
1t is a good thing that Yale contains
a large majority of these wide-awake,
progressive citizens who are ever ready
to take any step that will further bene-
fit our town and it would be equally as
we'll for the city If the people who
voted against the bonding proposition
would procure seats in the band wagon
and join in the boosting.
The results of the special election
are given below:

GATHERING EOR BATTLE.
September is the month when the
drums beat out the long roll which
brings the members Of adult Bible
classes back from vacation, whether it
has been at the shore, along mountain
stream, or on the broad prairie or per.
chance, in the quiet of ones own home,
to a realization that the battle for
Righteousness must be taken up in real
earnest and fought out, beginning at
ones own front gate, on through his
community, across our own country
and on to foreign shores. You are ex-
pected to see that the member who
lives in your block is present also.
Make yourself committee of one on
attendance, Rally Sunday, Sept. /.

Whatever of value has come to us
from the joys of vacation or the fellow
ship with new people who have come
into our lives during the summer, can
be used to the best advantage If put to
service immediately with the begin.
ming of the work of the fall. The pur-
poses to study more intelligently the
word of God, to be more diligent in
the little kindly services of every day,
to help give opportunity to others of
having taught them the life of Him
who makes all life glorious, will all
take their place with passing emotion
al impulses of other days unless imme-
diately given an. opportunity for such
development as will make them active
factors in our daily life. The hour of
coming together to take up anew the
work which our fellowship together
makes delightful is crisis which will
determine what the fruits Of our dis.
cipleship will be through the year

THE BLOWING OF THE CLASS HORN.
The highest note of the singer i'm the
choir has as much dignity as the low
est note, and it is the high note that
attracts the most attention and calls
for the most applause. The class that
is not blowing Its own horn is neglect
ing real duty. There is no better noT
quieter way to do this blowing than
through the medium of the printing
office. There is too little instead OF
too much blowing of the class horn
Many classes are so quiet regarding
their movements that one might al
most suppose that they were maintain.
ing secrecy lest 1t be known that they
are in existence. Then each member
of the class should carry little horn
of his own with which to help adver'
tise the class. He can speak Of the
class to others and say many good
and helpful word for it. When every
one in the class does full duty in this
respect, the combined notes of this
kind of horn. blowing cannot fail to be
effective in some quarters and the
class wax larger and stronger in con
sequence thereof.

fair Canadian city that is responsible

Boys ut Charlottesville.

Every conscientious parent faces at
some time the necessity of deciding
what sort OF training his child shall
have to tit him for helpful AMI hi2-
Ply life. In a few cases the unfor-
tunate pressure OF poverty or other af-
Fiction may leave little freedom in
this choice. but In most cases there
is broader opportunity and very
real responsibility. Very probably no
single decision in fathers life is
more Uuly critical in its far-reaching
sffects than that which in great part
determines. it may be for his sons
temporal and eternal life. the nature
OF the Influences that mould his plas-
tic mind and body during their most
impressiona period.
Without further explanation Il,
should be evident that the selection
of school for his boy Is an act OF
great responsibility for a parent
This is true in any case. but more
especially when selection of "a board
Ing" school is to be made; for in this
case the new influence upon the boys
life is given practically full control.

son father is grossly neglectful OF
high responsibility If he fail to make
the selection with painstaking care to
this vital end, namely that the boys

orous manhood may he freed from
every unnecessary chance of malfor-
nation and blight.
In every system OF education there
is necessarily an element OF chance
that its application to the lives or
many individuals may here and there
fail of effectiveness through the In
Unite variations OF tho personal equa-
ton This fact points to the neces-
sary conclusion that If he will truly

conscicntiously endeavor to select for
his son that system of education
wherein he neither runs wild. In &C
