Society and "Society."

A friendly message to members
of all Clubs and coteries, orders
and organizations of Paris.
This will be the third topic in a
special series of practical and
important Sunday evening SUBJ
jects by the pastor of the
Methodist Church. The former
topics have been Movies and
Morals, and Sunday on the
Square. +" The object and attitude
of the preacher have been en-
tirely constructive and not crit
ical, candid but not sarcastic;
and the large audiences have
entered fully into sympathy
with him in this wholesome pur-
pose and treatment.
On next Sunday evening there
will be a brief review of the pre-.
vious sermons and we beg to ex.
tend cordial and earnest invi.
tation to all, and especially to all
officers and members of social,
and fraternal organizations.

battleships Louisiana and New Hamp-
shire sailed last night from Newport,
R. l.. for Vera Cruz. The gunboat
Marietta also has been ordered from
Progreso to Vera Cruz. 1t is under

and Machias, which are on the Mexi-
can coast. have been ordered there.

auto cost him S. and afforded him the
experience of looking into the deadly
end of revolver. And it was all in
broad daylight on. a road just east of
this city.
Mr. Gill of Bellevue was driving
along the road when he saw the man
and woman evidently in distress. Mr..
Gill knew what it means to be strand
ed in balky auto. He stopped his
machine, stepped out to offer assist
ance and came face to face with
villainous looking weapon. The man
whom he would have aided held the
revolver.
Hold up your hands," said the man
to Mr.. Gill.
Mr.. Gill followed the suggestion
with alacrity.
Then the man took S. from the vic-
tim, all the money in his pockets.
Just as the bill changed ownership
the supposedly disabled auto started
with jerk. The man grabbed the
wheel and put on more "gas' and
| sparks The woman waved farewell
to Mr.. Gill.

AIR FLEETS KILL IL
zEPPELINs DROP BOMBS ON
TOWNS IN ENGLAND.
pIoding Aissiles-Raid Also
Made on Bavaria.

London, Aug. 11.-East coast towns
of England and Scotland are passing
a sleepless night in momentary ex-
pectation of fresh invasion by Ger
man Zeppelin airships on a bomb
dropping expedition.
The anxiety is based partly on re-
port that five Zeppelins were seen fly
ing past an island near the entrance
to the Zuyder Zee toward Scotland on
Monday and partly on knowledge that
the war of the air" has been re-
opened with greater vigor and more
stupendous operations than ever ex-
perienced
The first blows in the new campaign
fell almost simultaneously on not only
England, but Germany. A German air
squadron raided the east coast of
England and killed fourteen persons
while dropping bombs for four hours
on Tuesday. An allied aeroplane feet
raided Bavaria and killed eight civil
ians at Sankt Ingbert.
After the raid in which they killed
fourteen and injured fourteen civil
ians in England, which lasted from
$3.50 o'clock Monday evening until
1890 o'clock Tuesday morning, the
Germans lost one of their airships. 1t
is believed four or five big Zeppelins
took part in the raid. One of them
was attacked by gunfire on its way
home and so seriously damaged that
it fell into the sea. 1t was towed to
Ostend. Belgian port held by Ger.
I mans, but there was attacked by al
lied aviators from Dunkirk, who are
reported to have blown it to frag
ments.

IS cHARGD WITH MURDER
Indiana Authorities Fail to Shake
Calm Of S. N. Eversoe on Macklin
& Girls Death.

South Bend, Ind, Aug. 14-Silas
N. Eversole, former Dunkard preach
er, who was arrested on his farm near
Bristol, Ind, was formally charged
with the murder of Hazel Macklin, the
fifteen-year-old high school girl who
was found strangled to death on Oc-
tober "a, 1914, in Island park. an iso-
lated picnic ground near this city. He
will be arraigned before Judge George
Ford today.
No charge has been made against
the son, and it is now said he will be
held merely as witness. The only
link, as the police admit, that connects
him with the murder is the discovery
of the canvas telescope bag, which
had been partly burned on the farm
formerly occupied by the Eversoles.
1t became known, too, that the au-
thorities are working hard to obtain
a confession from the elder Eversole,
though thus far with small hope of
success.

LAYS 80 PCT. OF CRIME !
TO IGNORANT PARENTS
Police Prosecutor, in Address, Says Most
Acts Of Wrong Doing Result From
Lack Of Proper Training.

Cleveland. = Ninety per cent of
all crimes are directly chargeabIei
to ignorant, unfit or immoral parents, "
said Police Prosecutor Francis WI
Poulson in an address in Trinity Bap-i
tist church, Broadway and Fullerton
av S. E., in series arranged by the
social news bureau of the Cleveland;
Federation for Charity and Philan-.
thropy.
"All crimes are divided into two
distinct classes" continued Mr.. Poul-
son, "crimes of the head and crimes
of the heart BY crimes of the head
we mean those committed with mali.
cious intent, such as robbery, bur-
glary and pocket picking. By crimes
of the heart we mean those acts not
criminal in themselves but made SO
by statute and acts which are born in
ignorance, nurtured in unwholesome
environment and committed at time
OF weakness. In this class are placed
such offenses as assault and battery,
neglecting children, intoxication, vag
rancy and begging.
OF proper training and guidance, un-
wholesome environment, bad company
| and lack of schooling.
THE results of these conditions are
drunkenness, neglect of family. abuse
and assault, double standard of NOR
ais, disease, degeneracy and incompe-
tency. Persons who are the product
of such conditions are responsible for
large portisn of our crime and suf-
| fering.
Punishment for crime has never
succeeded. We must help our unfor-
tunates to help themselves We must
say to the accused, Because you have
committed an act which wrongs your
fellow man you must be confined un-
less you can convince US that you are
a safe person to be at large"
