Never Paid For a Shave And Went
Onto Granville Streets Shouting
EvangeIistic Utterances

Granville, Aug. 31-Frank Sreetor,
an insane man from Columbus, gave
Village Marshal Shipley and others a
bad hour about noon yesterday.
He lit here, nobody knows how, and
proceeded at once to assume the gen.
eral role Of manager and meddler in
to persons private affairs. He went
into a barber shop and secured a
shave. The barber was glad to be rid
of him at any price and when he went
without paying for it he did not re-
mind him of his obligation to pay for
it.
He secured an old tin funnel and an
orange. He went from person to per-
son, making objections, finding fault
and giving directions. Occasionally
he announced to half terrified indi-
vidual that he must have a clean
heart and be good and be right. Mar

PLAYTHINGS OF LUNATIC

shal Shipley called Sheriff Swang and
he took with him Deputies Legge and
Brown and went in an auto to Gran
vile. When they arrived Streetor
was in front of the postoffice and was
engaged in crumbling up pieces of an
electric light mantle and dropping the
pieces in the funnel which he had
thrust in the orange.
On the way to the city the man gave
way to his feelings in a series of un-
earthly whoops and yells. He also gave
the driver of the machine directions
in tone of voice which attracted at
tention along the road.
In the Jail he probably warned the
prisoners to keep their heads behind
the bars or he would knock them off.
They readily complied with the Or
der. Judge Hunter called the sheriff
of Franklin county, who came yester-
day afternoon and took Streetor back
with him. The man was released
from the state hospital in 1911 as
cured. He was a Franklin county
patient.

new Coins
Of FOuF-Bit And TWO-Bit Var
iGty Ready
Former Pictures Goddess of Liberty,
Later Woman Coming Through
A Gate

Washington, d. c., Aug. 91-If some
that has an unfamiliar look, don't re-
fuse il in the belief that it is counter
felt or of foreign origin. The proba-
bilities are that it will be a sample
of Uncle Sans new mintage, which
is about to be placed in circulation
in compliance with the law that re-
quires change in the designs of the
silver pieces once in every twenty
years.
The new coins now ready for cir
culation consit of half-dollars, quar-
ter-dollars and dimes. For more than
a month the United States mints in
Philadelphia, Denver and San Fran
cisco have been turning them out at a
rate of about $4,000 worth day, so
that now the amount on hand is suf-
ficient to be placed in circulation ov-
er the entire country within the next
few days.
The design of the new half-dollars
Is considered a higher type of art
than the coins that have for so long
been familiar. The markings are not
so prominently cut and the coin has
o much smoother appearance. On
one side of 1t is the figure OF the God
| dess Of Liberty holding in one arm a
bunch Of olive branches. Above the
| figure are the words, "In God We
Trust; below it the word Liberty"
On the opposite side of the coin there
| is spread eagle grasping an oak
| twig in his talons as he stands upon
a rock. At the top is printed: "The
United States of America" and at the
bottom, Half Dollar"
One side of the new quarter has the
| full figure of woman coming through
gate in wall. On the opposite side
there is pictured an eagle in flight.
The new dime is of sharper cut. On
one side is the head of a woman. Ov-
