In response to telephone call from
Constable Boone at Spencer, Sheriff
Gehman in company with Deputy Pei

result Of which the former received
some ugly cuts on, his head.
Sunday morning, when sober, the
men declared that they had been sold
their booze by member Of the gang
and that toward the last when they
handed out bill in payment for a sin

preaching and SPECU.
LATION WON'T MIX

"Ways of increasing income, which
would be perfectly legitimate for men
in other positions, are not right for
the minister" says Prof. Eugene W..
Lyman Of Oberlin, who is to preach
at the Congregational church here
next Sunday. Prof. Lyman gave ut
terance to the above statement before
a meeting of Congregational ministers
at theStatler hotel one evening this
week.
"Like Caesars wife, the minister
must be above suspicion. A minis
ter's moral character is his cardinal
qualification for the ministry and
therefore he is bound to protect his
integrity" DR.. Lyman said.
"The ministerial profession is not
and should not be organized on a
basis of financial compensation for
services rendered. A minister's salary
Is in the nature Of q fee, not. to com.
pensate him for his services, but
rather to maintain him in the position
where he can go on rendering that
kind of service. How can minister
convince people that he cares supreme
ly for the values of the higher life
if he is at great pains to provide him
self with a financial compensation.

'NERENE WITH WILSON
d FOR PREPAREDNESS.

Business conditions in the United
States and the issues now before the
administration Of greater armament,
the tariff, and diplomatic relations
with Europe were discussed by Sem
ator Atlee Pomerene before $50 mem
bers of the Canton chamber of COM
merce last Friday.
Pomerene said the present tariff
laws could not be SO bad in view of
the fact that the prosperity Of the
country is unparalleled. American
commerce has suffered less than
that Of the commerce Of any other
nation according to figures which he
quoted. He said the Wilson admins
tration was committed to making ev-
cry effort possible to defend our COM
merce without war.
"And nobody wants war. We can
tell when it starts but not wheE il
will STOP" he declared.
Il would not vote for one dollar e
be spent for an aggressive war;" said
Pomerene, 'but when the great powers
Of the world are mad, when they tram
pie en- the rights Of neutrals, I an
not unmindful of the fact that we
should spend reasonable sum on !

Polecats and other vegetables are
sometimes found in chicken-coop,
but it is rare indeed that one discovers
1 bank book there. A depositor in q
local bank appeared in that institution
one morning this week and asked for
some money with the statement that
his pass book was lost, Previously
the owner Of the chicken coop had in
formed the cashier Of the bank that
he had just picked up the pass book
in the coop. Upon the owners re-
quest for money the cashier summoned
all the courage he could muster and
calmly told him that the lost had
been found and where. An eye-wit-

ASKS s15. 600 HEART BALM

Flossie M. Geib. through her attor-
ney, John D. Owen, filed suit against
Fred Slanker, charging him with
breach Of promise. Plaintiff asks
that Slanker be compelled to pay her
$4,000 as heart balm. Both reside
in Wadsworth and it is alleged that
there was a mutual agreement to wed
made, upon Fred's proposition, May
~. 1914. Plaintiff AYERS that ever
since that fateful day she has been
willing and ready to fulfill her part Of
the agreement, but that Slanker has
neglected and refused to carry out his
part.
Breach Of promise suits usually at
tract large numbers Of people to :
court room and it is probable that the
above case will be no exception to the
rule.

HOLD WADSWORTH
man ASKED BU|BE

Thirty minutes after he had testi-
fed for the plaintiff in the personal
injury action of Morris Schwartz
against the Erie railroad before Unit
ed States Judge John H. Clark, in
Cleveland Monday, Paul Maksich,
Wadsworth, was in cell at the county
Jail, charged by government attorneys
with attempting to solicit a bribe to
influence his testimony.
On direct examination by Attor-
ney Harry F. Prayer, representing the
plaintiff, Maksich had stated that he
was with Schwartz when the wagon
in which they were riding was struck
by an Erie train at Rittman, o., two
years ago. He said neither he nor
Schwartz had been drinking, but de-
clared that box cars obscured the
view Of the train which injured
Schwartz. Schwartz is suing for
$4,000.
Gushing, Siddall & Lamb cross ex-
amined and produced letters written
in Slavish by Maksich, and identified
by him, in which he asked Erie rail-
road officials what they would give
him if he testified for the road.
One letter said in part:
II will give testimony in the in
terest of the company, but want to
know how much you will pay me. If
testify the truth how the accident
occurred, then the company will lose
the suit, but if you want me to
testify in the interest of the company,
then ] want to know how much you
will pay me-"
Before Commissioner Marlatt, later
Maksich is said to have admitted
writing the letters. He is said to
have stated that man advised him to
write them, saying it was the proper
thing to do in a railroad suit. His
testimony on the stand, he said, was
correct.

Medina BEATS old
RIVAL, SCORE I TO 0.

Medina high met their old rivals
Wooster-on the gridiron last Friday
afternoon and trimmed them in fine
style. The score, z to 0, docs not do
justice to Medina as opportunc penal
ties prevented two other touchdowns,
one when Berger caught forward
pass and carried it forty yards, only
to be downed on the 1O-yard line. Me-
dina's only touchdown came after a
series Of line bucks, Berger kicking
goal.
Both teams played consistent ball,
Wooster resorting mainly to forward
passes which were seldom completed.
The absence Of wrangling and the
usual squabbling over decisions Yves
noticeable as Wooster has reputa-
tion for such and lives up to ii. Con-
ner Of Cleveland, q Bates man. wcs
the direct cause Of this, and refereed

No game is scheduled for this week,
but Lakewood will be here next Fri
day and give the local boys q tussle
