R0BB[R|Es
Post Offices at Pettisville and Ridge
vile Corners Are Robbed Monday
Morning Craftsmen Get Small
Amounts at Both Places-No Clue
to Perpetrators.

Some time after midnight last
Sunday the store of the Rychner
Brothers which contains the Post Of
fee, at Pettisville was entered and
ransacked. Entrance was effected
through a cellar window. A safe
containing books and papers which
was unlocked had been opened and
its contents searched by the intruders
but nothing had been taken from it.
A wooden drawer had been opened and
between $75 and $1O0 worth of post
age stamps taken from it. The bur-
glars also helped themselves to about
$4,000 worth of merchandise from
the store, but they found no money
for the reason that the Rychner
Brothers had left no money there;
they have other repositories for their
cash which they deem more safe.
Presumably about the same time
that the Pettisville robbery was in
process the Post Office at Ridgeville
Corners which is located in the stors
of Fred Otte and Sons was entered
in this instance by picking the lock of
the front door $1,000 in money and
postage stamps were taken from the
Post Office and s25 from the cash
register of the store, but the burg
lars neglected to take 5000 which was
in an unlocked safe in the store. No
clue as to the perpetrators of these
robberies has been discovered, though
officers are at work on both cases.

PRINCESS THEATRE.

Photoplay fans will delight in the
announcement that George Klein's
latest success "Officer 666" is book
ed for the Princess Theatre on Fri
day Night September oath.
1t would be hard to imagine sub
ject better adapted to perturbation
than the uproarious Cohan & Harris
comedy, whose quaint humor and
ludicrous situations made the nation
chuckle from Bangor, Maine to San
Diego. The original stage version
played nearly five hundred American
cities, the surest kind of test. The
film version is even funnier, as it per-
mits much greater latitude of action
and is not confined to the conventional
four acts of the drama. There are
more than one hundred and fifty diff
ferent scenes in the big Kleine Il

let's on which the names of Fulton
county soldiers, living and dead, are
to be cast in raised letters, there are
2207 of these names. The trustees
also voted to place the names of ex-
soldiers residents of Fulton county
but who enlisted from other counties
or states ON bronze tablets, for $1.00
for each name. These Tablets will be
appropriately placed about the monu-
ment.

that unpaid subscriptions be paid as
soon as possible in order that the

MORE BIG APPLES.

Jake Leatherman's boast last week
that he had found the champion big
apple, has brought in reports from
other precincts" that indicate that
Jake's champion has been defeated.
Mrs. Bertha Phipps sends us a big
apple from her farm that pulls the
scales down to little more than one
pound and Thomas Miley produces
an apple that weighs exactly pound
and five ounces. But the big beet,
beats the apples. John Wise on Su-
perior street dropped a beet seed in
his garden last, spring the other day
he gave the resulting beet to his
neighbor, James Biddle, this beet
when weighed made a record of 8
pounds and 6 ounces.

PRINCESS THEATRE
FAIR WEEK ATTRACTION

Occasionally some play strikes a
note that rings out clear and true in
the midst of the commonplace and inn
presses its auditor with the thought
that it was written not for gain, not
for pastime, but because some man
had something to say to other men
and he took this means of expression
"The Shepherd of the Hills" Har-
old Bell Wright's dramatization of his
novel of the same name, is this kind
of play. Mr.. Wright had felt with
in his soul the peace and beauty of
the hills and he wished to set down
their meaning before him. He made
play that in plot is compelling, one
that never fais in sincerity. The peo-
pie who move in it are so human that
the auditor will pick them out for like
and dislike as if he really knew them.
There is the shepherd, the man who
came to the hills to learn, and re-
manned to teach; Old Matt, who
cherished the memory of a wrong that
could never be righted; Young Matt,
Hercules of the Hills country,
whose strength of heart and soul
equaled the strength of his body;
Sammy Lane, bright and buoyant with
the youth of the hill country, and the
other quaint characters that enliven
the play with humor.
The scene of the play is in the
high hills of the Ozark mountains.
The mists of the valleys, the glories
of the sunsets, the magnificent vistas
from the SUBMITS have been brought
out by the wonderful ingenuity of the
scenic artist and electricians craft.
It is the spirit of the land that Mr..
Wright has caught that makes the
play one that is unique and one that
will stand in a field of its own.
"The Shepherd of the Hills" will be
the attraction at the Princess Theatre
commencing Monday Night Septem-
Der 27th The enormous popularity
of the Harold Bell Wright novels in
dicates that the third annual engage
ment of this, his first play, will prove
greater popular success with pa
irons of this house than it did on its
initial appearance last season.
The advance sale for any perfor-
nance of this engagement opens Mon
dav September Doth at Fink & Haum
essers Drug Store; plenty of gooc
reserved seats at so and rs cents ge
them early.

SHORT MEETING
Council Find Short Program of Busi-
ness Monday Evening Driv-
ers From Wauseon to Fair Grounds
Must Be Licensed.

Aside from the usual routine of
Council Meetings and reports from
Marshal concerning streets trhffic
and sidewalks there was nothing for
the Councilmen to untangle but the
question of controlling the Hack traf-
nc incident to the Fulton County Fair
which begins next Tuesday Septem-
Der 28th. To insure the safety of
people using the streets of Wauseon
next week the Council decided that
every person driving an automobile
out of or into Wauseon for the pur-
pose of carrying passengers for hire
between the fair grounds and this vii
lage must procure license from the
village clerk, who will provide a
suitable license tag which must be
displayed on every vehicle that en-
cages in the above mentioned busi-
ness. In previous years there has
been more or less trouble with hack
drivers who came into town for the
week for the purpose of picking up the
quarters which many people are will
ing to pay for the ride out to the fair
grounds or the return trip to Wau-
seon. This year the council have plac-
ed the direction of this traffic in the
hands of the Marshal who will desig-
nate the routes out of and into the
town for these vehicles, places for
them to stand while waiting for pass
engers and, etc. This will require ex-
ira help for the Marshal and in or
der that the whole matter may be pro-
perly controlled and cared for the
Council have determined to permit ne
one to engage in this business next
week without first procuring license
from the Clerk. The Council were
convinced that public safety made
this step necessary.
Sidewalks that have been a long
time coming have arrived and more
are due to arrive in the, near future.
The street commissioner is busy put
ting in crosswalks and the indica-
tions are that the highways and by
ways of our village will be in better
shape than they ever were before,
before the first snow flies.
Auto owners and drivers generally.
there are possibly few exceptions
are disposed to observe the rules of
the new Traffic Ordinance some for
get occasionally to keep to the right
land authorities will soon have in place
"aids to memory" along this line
There are not very many people ir
this vicinity who are so selfish that
they forget the safety and comfort OF
others, consequently it is not very
often that the rules of the Traffic
Ordinance are violated.
The usual claim ordinance was
passed and council adjourned at ar
learly hour.

"ROCK ERED"

"Rockered" may Be new word to
some people, but that describes what
the members of Losure Post G. A.
r. did to their Comrade Jacob Gar
menn last Monday evening, they just
"rockered him." The occasion was
Mr.. Garments birthday anniversary
and his Comrades having found out
about it, went to his home on West
Park street Monday evening and
presented him with beautiful rock
ing chair to commemorate the occas-
ion. Now Mr.. Garmenn may rock
while he thinks of the days long by
and of the gallant old BOYS who once
touched shoulders with him as they
swung into line.

BUSINESS CHANGES.

Two business changes are recorded
this week; Bruce Cramer the Tailor

both members of the new firm seem
to be kept very busy these days. Joe
Markle has purchased the Barber
Business of Mr.. Goodwald on Depot
street and is once more boss barber
There seems to be plenty of business
along this line in Wauseon.

SPECIAL WARNING

III SOIN4N OAO w l11AO
Issued by the Chief U. S. Weather
Bureau, ', asnlngton, d. c., Septem-
ber 16, 1916:
Owing to the general backward
state of this years corn crop in many
of the northern but important grow
ing sections of the belt, there is dan
ger of injury to the crop by killing
frost, the occurrence of which may be
expected at any time. 1t is therefore
important that every effort possible
be made to secure good seed for next
years crop. Where any last years
corn is left it should be gone over and
the best ears saved for seed. Moreover
as corn natures unevenly, it is pos
sible to secure seed from the early
ears before the rest of the crop is ma
tured.
