Of Congregational Church,
Held Tuesday Night
Call Extended To Rev. Free
man of Madison

The SIND annual meeting of the
Congregational church was held in
the lecture room last night.
An excellent dinner was served by
the social committee at o'clock to a
large number of the members and
friends at the close of which annual
reports from the clerk, treasurer,
auditor, treasurer of benevolent fund,
Ladies' association, Women's Mis-
sionary society. Sunday school and
Christian Endeayor society were Civ.
en-, all showing the church to be in a
healthy, 1ourishing condition.
A paper on Congregationalism was
read by Mrs. Kelly, giving in a clear
and concise form the foundation prin-
ciples of the denomination and set.
ting forth the great things it had ac-
complished in the past and its aims
for the future. 1t was greatly enjoy
ed by all and vote of thanks was
tended Mrs. Kelly This was follow
ed by the election of officers:
Deacons-W. S. Sperry and Arthur
Mitchell.
Trustees-C. F. Colville, L. A. Cul-
bertson.
Clerk-H. S. Tarr.
Auditor-George r. Schnebly.
Treasurer Benevolent Fund-Mrs.
Henry Cooper.

B. Williams.

Rawlings Case

Rawlings Case
Newark American Tribune.)
Attorneys for the state have been
advised that the attorneys for Mr.. A.
l.. Rawlings will file petition in er-
ror in the court of appeals.
1t is in session in Richland county
this week and before the petition can
be filed in the upper court it is neces-
sary to get the permission of the
court. To that end Hon. w. D. Full
ton of this city and w. M. Koons of
Mt. Vernon will go there, probably on
Thursday.
Prosecutor Horner said today that
he would combat the motion to allow
petition in error to be filed. He is
in the midst of the work before the
grand jury and will probably not ad-
journ the body to attend to the mat
ter. Late this afternoon he had a
conference with Mr.. A. A. Stasel, who
was associated with him in the trial
of the case, and it is probable that
the latter will go and argue against
the motion.
The grounds for the petition will
contain nothing new from the motion
for a new trial filed and argued and
lost last week before Judge Jewell,
who tried the case.
It will be remembered that Judge
Jewell gave stay of five days from
Monday of the present week to allow
the attorneys to take this step. He
advanced the amount of bond to
$25, 900, which has not yet been given
by the prisoner

Took Il to Heart

Ike McVicker of South Vernon was
so heart-broken when he saw his son
Clyde behind the bars at the county
Jail that he proceeded to get fuller
than he had been for some time. AS
a result, he was landed in Jail about
10 o'clock Tuesday night. He was ar
rested at his home by Deputy Sheriff
Mossholder and officer Taylor. They
found him in room with gas fire
booming and discovered that in an
adjoining room gas was turned on but
not lighted. The arrest was made on
complaint of a relative. 1t is said
that McVicker ran everybody out of
the house Tuesday night. Relatives
claim that he has been "teeing" up
daily for more than three months.

FIRST ACTUAL BREAK
over CONSCR|pTION
Secretary Simon Resigns From
the British Cabinet.

London, Jan 5.-Following a long
cabinet session on conscription Pre-
mier Asquitn made public in the
house Of commons the resignation O.
Sir John Simon from the portfolio of
secretary of state for home affairs.
The resignation was because of the
Liberal minister's opposition to the
compulsion bill. The position OF Reg
inald McKenna, chancellor of the ex-
chequer, and Walter Runciman, presi-
dent of the board of trade, is not yet
known.
The first actual break in the coali-
tion cabinet over the question of con
scription had been predicted for sew.
eral days and the premier's announce
ment of the secretary's resignation
was more in the nature of a confirma-
ton than surprise. It is probable
that the compulsion bill will undergo
notifications before it is presented,
or that other designations from the
cabinet will follow. 1t seems to he
agreed by various sources that Ire
land will be omitted from the scope
of the bill.
The South Wales miners are un-
cualifiedly opposed TO conscription.
James Winston, president of the
South Wales Miners association, an
nounced that resolutions against it
had been passed by the executive
committee unless the politicians
Of the country are careful" he said
"they will stop the South Wales Goa!

made total gross increase for the
month Of $42,766,OOO. In December as
In other months one half of the com
panies formed and half the capital au-
thorlzed came from points outside the
four large cities of the state.
The total figures of corporate activi-
ty for the year show it to have been
we'll above the average in the total
amount of funds authorized. These
corporate records are the best baro-
meters of corporate growth and en-
largement of business. The increases
are accepted as faith of corporations
in the greater business demands in the
future. They indicate healthy busi-
ness preparedness.
The authorized capital of new cor
porations formed for profit during the
year in this state was $9S,600,000. The
total number of companies sharing was
1896. During the same time increases

There is a great deal of Irritation
with honorable names as possible can
didates on the Democratic and Repub-
lican state tickets, especially in regard
to opposition to Frank B. Willis for re-
nomination as governor. Leading men,
tion is given to William Cooper Proc
tor and to John A. Cline, but mention
is all. There is no chance of defeat
ing Frank B. Willis for denomination
If he wants it. Republican leaders
know that to do so would be fatal, for
If Willis has proven failure as chief
executive his failure has been that of
the Republican party. Whether the
Republicans nominate Willis or Jack
Arnold or some one else they must
carry the record of the present admin
istration to the peole for endorse
ment. Their only hope now lies in the
possibility that James M. Cox may not
be persuaded to become the Democrat
ic candidate, in which event the Demo
Gratis could not draw parallel of the
Willis administration with his remark
ably good record of efficiency. Demo-
Gratis know that Cox ought to be their
candidate and they are SO trying to in
fluence him, and they know that If they
cannot win with Cox that they cannot
possibly win with anyone else. Mr.
Cox has consented to deliver Jackson
Day speeches at Dayton on January
10, and at Lancaster January H.. His
remarks will be heard carefully for an
indication of his plans.
