A History; Notes From
Court House

One week ago, P. l.. Kuhns of the
Coshocton road dropped into Fay L..
Smiths barber shop in the Kirk build
ing for the purpose Of brushing up a
bit in his facial appearance.
Mr.. Kuhns must go quite little
distance to reach the business section
of the city or his work at the G. & G..
Cooper foundry, and he is in the
habit of covering this stretch on a
bicycle.
On entering the shop, Mr.. Kuhns
left his bicycle by the iron railing at
the top of the stairs which lead into
the basement where the shop is To-
Gated.
Having finished with the barber,
Mr.. Kuhns returned upstairs and was
startled to find no bicycle there. He
searched and searched, but In vain.
Two days ago farmers telephoned to
the sheriff's Office that bicycle was
lying in a snowdrift by the side of the
Newark road, four miles south of the
city.
Deputy Sheriff Mossholder and
Juvenile Officer Purcell drove to the
spot, recovered the wheel and caused
to be inserted in the local newspapers
an account of its discovery.
Mr.. Kuhns read the item and, on
Wednesday, appeared at the sheriff's
office, described the property and had
the same restored to him. The bicy-
Gle was intact, with the exception of
the light which the thief had appro-
priated when he abandoned it.

License Refused


A romance was shattered in pro-
bate court Wednesday morning in a
way which shows one of the danger
GUS trends of the times, says the New.
ark American Tribune.
A young woman and her lover came
In and applied for a marriage license.
Before going very far with the mat
ter she told her life story to Judge
Hunter. In earlier life, she with 9TH
er girls, had accompanied some young
men to a city in Michigan. She and
one of the young men had had some
sort Of a marriage service performed.
Though she thought it phony mar
riage she admitted that she had lived
with him subsequently. Recently,
however, desiring to marry, she had
written to some of the officers in the
city and county in Michigan.
They replied that they had no rec
ord of the marriage of parties by the
names she gave, neither at the time
indicated nor at any other time. The
court was clear in his line of duty and
refused the marriage license at this
time. t

There was no division Of the debat-
ers along party lines. Senator Jones
Of Washington, republican, denounced
as "unpatriotic" American citizens
who imperilled the nation by taking
passage on belligerent vessels. Senator
Works of California, republican, as

United States was "hypocritically''
claiming to be neutral when it was in
fact participating in the war through
the sale of munitions. Senator Lodge
ranking republican member of the
foreign relations committee, declared
that to place an embargo on arms now
would be worth more to Germany than
a million men, that it would be a
grossly unneutral act'' and should in
fact make the United States the ally
of Germany. Senators O'Gorman of
New York and Hitchcock of Nebraska,
both democrats, urged the advisability
O'Gorman also informed the senate
that American Consul X. N. McNeely,
who lost his life on the British liner

American Consul General Skinner at
London that he make the journey to
Alden on a Dutch vessel.
The discussion was precipitated
when Senator Jones read a newspaper

keep off belligerent ships and advising
