SALOON CASE TANCLE
UP TO CITY COURT
Joseph Kubiak Claims He Left
Keys With Bartender to
Care for Place.

A saloon case which presents pos
siblfties and which may become a
test case is at present facing the city
court Joseph Kublak, 2201 Ber-
trand av.. was arrested Sunday. July
u, charged with allowing persons
other than himself in the barroOm Of
his saloon building.
Evidence showed that a bartender
of Kubiak's was in the place on the
Sunday afternoon in question and
that he was handling bottled beer.
The state claims that that fact
alone is sufficient to convict Kubiak
Of the charge and after the testimony
of Sergt. Barnhart and detective
Wolters to that effect, demanded that
the court pass sentence upon the de-
PENDANT
However. the defense brought out
the fact that Kubiak was out of the
city on that afternoon, although he
had left the keys to the place in the
hands of Mike Mihalski, the bar
tender The keys were upon ring
with several other keys, the other
keys being for other buildings on
Kubiak's property in which. he keeps
live stock and chickens The defense
claims and brought out intestimony
that Kubiak had left the keys with
Mihalski with orders To feed and
look after the live stock.
Mihalski said he entered the sa-
loon on the approach of a storm to
close sever Il windows and that he
found the bottled beer on the floor
and was mlreN replacing it in the
refrigerator. The officers knocked
at a rear door and he admitted them.
Acting Judge Dare was unable to
arrive at any decision and withheld
judgment until Wednesday morning.

MAYOR HOLDS KEY TO
PUzzL|NC PAINTER CASE
Accused Man Denies ImperSOn-
ating 0ffiCer-SayS Keller
Gave Him Authority

In a case that has attracted more
attention from the city than any other
in city court for many years, Jesse
Painter. 1913 Michigan av., is being
tried ior impersonating an officer
The case has called the testimony of
city officials, including Mayor Fred
W. Keller and POlicewoman Minnie
Evans, besides any number of patrol
men and private detectives. Trial was
begun Tuesday morning, but there
was not enough time to hear all the
evidence, and Acting Judge Dare con-
tinued the hearing until Wednesday
morning.
Painter himself is a puzzle to the
police department. Many police Of
ficials think that he is insane He
sticks StOutly to his story that he or
dered no one from the city and that
ha CLAIMED to no one that he was an
office Of the law with the authority
that office would give him. This was
in the Il &c of testimony offered by
j. w. Thompson. one-time employe of
the Central States detective agency,
and f. w. HOlderman, an ass. ciate
of ThOmpson's.
Thompson filed the affidavit and
claims that Painter ordered both him
self and two woman friends from the
CITY. dlHl6I uCilltS llldl dIltSdlAOlA
absolutely When he told his story
on the stand and was cross examined
by the state he admitted that he had
served time in the penitentiary for an
attempted assault upon a young girl,
which happened at the time Painter
lived in Allen county.
Says Painter Was Rough.
Thompson said in testimony that
at the time Painter ordered him from
the city the latter was inclined to be
rough about 1T and was oVerzealous
TO start a fight. Why Painter should
act in the capacity of spotter, as he
claims, without pay or any promise
of remuneration, was gone into at
length by the state.
There was a sensation in the court
room when Painter declared on the
stand that Mayor Fred w. Keller had
promised him a position on the local
police force if the evidence he gath
cred was sufficient TO aid in the moral
cleansing of the city.
The mayor was not found Tuesday
morning, although he had been sum-
moned to testify as TO Painters con-
verS3tiOn with him about whether
Painter should become a spOtter
working directly under the mayer.
That is Painters claim
The mayors testimony will be
heard Wednesday morning and it is
thought that Painters fate hangs
upon just what transpired between
him and the mayor.

SCHOOLS MUST
TEACH CHILDREN
HOW TO HUSTLE
c. M. Sanford Declares Good
Old Yankee Word Sums Up
Need of Hard Work if Sic
cess is to be Attained.

ITS the high school today filing it's
proper function ," This is the ques-
ton that C. NJ Sanford asked at the
chautauqua Tuesday morning. in his
lecture on school and Society" Mr..
Sanford answered his own question by
stating that the school and especially
the high school must teach its pupils
to be self-supporting.
Mr. Sanford pointed out that faith
ers are sending their boys TO school
for one purpose, and that Is, that the
son will not have TO work as hard
as the father had 20 in his day. This
spirit" Mr.. Sanford declared, the
youth catches hold OF and incorpOr-
ates into his life work. Instead Of
using this line OF argument the father
should say 10 the son that with the
thOroughfares of life crowded and
the professions filled he viii have but
a fighting chance If he does not get
an education. and without it he has
next to no chance at all
Must Learn TO Hustle.
when we were young" the speak
er continued, there was plenty of
cheap land, exceptional opportunities
in the professions, but now il is en-
tirely changed. There never was a
time in American history when il was
so essential as now that young people
learn the full significance of the good
old Yankee word, hustle They
should be made TO realize that one
constant element OF luck is genuine,
solid old Teutonic pluck
But the chief criticism of many
schools is that, while they do provide
a good training and a good foundation
for those who intend to take up work
in colleges, there is nothing provided
for those who must go direct from
high school into the activities OF life.
The reason for the present curriculum
in most accredited high schools may
be laid at the doors OF the old acad-
emical school. out of which grew the
present institution. The present test
OF the high school is. Does it pre-
pare for cOllege2' Is that right when
we know that less than one in every
twelve who enter school ever reaches
the high school and that less than
three in every hundred enter the uni
versity or college?
Must Change Attitude.
1--WE must change out entire altitude
toward our public schools. They must
prepare their pupils to be self-sup-
porting-tO fit into the industrial and
commercial life OF q community of
which they are a part. The largest
class of wage earners in the state in
cIudes those who have learned a
trade When domestic science uni
versalIy receives the emphasis it de-
serves there Will be fewer divorces
and the cost of living will be reduced.
With manual training in the schools
from the third grade up. we will be
able TO hold our boys in the school,
for men vOcatiOnally trained are able
10 live on a higher plane than other
wise"

ficers at McGehee Saturday on the
charge of burglarizing the postoffice

before United States Commissioner
A. l.. Burnett yesterday morning and
held to await the action of the fed
eral grand jury. His bond was fixed
at $4,000, which he says he will be
able to furnish in cash within a few
days.
Sands conducted his own defense
and questioned the witnesses. He
did not take the stand. however, and
refused at all times to talk concern
ing his arrest. After the testimony
has been taken he asked number
of the witnesses to sign statement
to the effect that the testimony they
gave was correct. While the witness
es were willing the postoffice in
spector said there was no good cause
for such action and prevented the
witnesses from so doing.
When the trial was nearing the
end, Sands asked that the remainder
of the testimony be held up until he
could secure H. X. Toney to defend
him. This was also denied him, Com
missioner Burnett saying that the
hearing would have to be started ov-
err and enough testimony had al
ready been presented to hold him to
the grand jury.
