news Old Suit.

Although grim prison walls stared
him In the face, Stanislav Meaza,
could not help but return to this city
and press his love for pretty Miss
Karolina Hflbricht, of 644 Charles
street. He was released from Jail
on March Z, last, under promise that
he would leave the state for Chester,
Pa, and never again molest the girl.
He claimed that he just could not
stay away from the city SO long as
Miss Hilbricht lived here.
He wanted her to be his wife and
il she continued to refuse she must
die, he declared Saturday night.
He repeated a threat several times &C
cording to the girl, that he would
kill her. She informed Patrolman
Rymarczyk and he found Meaza
shortly after 8 o'clock. The young
lover was yesterday held in default
of $500 bail to await the action OF
the grand jury.
Meaza had chased Miss Hilbrict
with a shot gun in their native coun-
try in Europe. She came here with
her sister, and he followed them
she asserts. He took rooms in the
same house where she lives and per-
sisted in forcing his attentions upon
her. The girl was insistant upon
having nothing to do with him, caus-
ing him to repeat threat several
times, that he would kill her. He
was first arrested here on complaint
of the girl on January 9, last.

sonally considered the greatest OF
his achievements. These attacks
really saddened his life and played
upon his mind. Hence his DEATH

TRUE MEANING
I0F WORD HOME
homesickness is Best Cure
for the WanderIust.

/ Declaring that homesickness is a
sure antidote for the "wanderlust,' -
Dr. James H, Northrup vividly de-
picted the victim of homesickness
and told how the only cure was the
returning to his home. This was the
| fifth and final sermon on thec"Home'
| by the pastor. A large number OF
interested persons made up the con-
gregation.
Mr.. Northrup took his text from
Psalms 1877: Allow shall we sing
the Lords song in a strange land?''
The speaker stated that when the
Jews were first taken captive to
Babylon they did not at first feel the
homesickness caused by being sepa-
rated from their native Jerusalem,
but after they had been for awhile
by the waters of Babylon they began
to realize that even the birds in Jer-
, usalem had nests, homes, and that
they were in strange land. The
loss of their homes began to depress
them, stated the speaker, and the
ravishing longing for their old habf-
tation began to prey upon their
minds until when asked to sing a
song Of Zion they replied, How
shall we sing the Lords song In a
strange land?"
In comparing the classic and scho-
lastic thinkers of yesterday with the
philosophers of today he said: ''The
classic and scholastic thinkers looked
for results in the finished and ae-
curate processes of attenuated
thought" This was fine thinking.
hn nh nh
lconspicuously, look for the greatest
riches in the deep mine of the basic
and generic impulses and emotions.
They are studying the great currents
of life that shiver through us. that
sweep over us. These are represent
ed in the expressions, The Call of
the Wild sWanderlust," and home
sickness.
Mr.. Northrup then explained the
heart rendering feelings which comes
over a stranger in a strange land,
and how homesickness is an anti
dote for the wanderlust. "Have you
ever been altogether a stranger?
away from home, relatives and tried
friends" he asked. He thought then
is the time that you appreciate the
little home which you left, your fam
iliar associations and the welcome
of home. ''It is blessed thing just
to be welcomed" he said.
But" continued the pastor. 1--WE
have had a similar feeling of home
sickness in our accustomed home, or
at our accustomed work" He stated
that the ideal of perfect rest, joy
and freedom creeps over us; your
spirit is set afire by an ideal of good
ness, beauty, OF God and heaven.
"And every dream of these ideals
seems as real as the dreamer's
world" asserted the speaker. He
continued; "You are citizen of
heaven, child of God. You are
lonely and lonesome even on the
crowded street. You feel yourself
the prodfgal We all have the pro-
digal in us somewhere. "The Call Of
the Wild in its extremity lead to
homesickness."
In closing he said, "Homesickness
for the stranger, the lonely and the
prodigal is the call to come to God,
home and heaven, and when you
come to the Father he will welcome
you home"
