was set upon by the holdup men. Mrs.
Teiper was killed by the first of four
shots fired. The men then dubbed
the others, and after robbing them of

ing nearby heard the shots and the
cries of the women and gave the
alarm. Mrs. Teiper was the widow of
Conrad Teiper. who founded the
Buffalo Structural Steel Company.

BY ASSoeiated Press

Paris, Jan. 31.-Several bombs were
dropped by Zeppelin which flew over
the outskirts of Paris last night. but
they produced no such deadly effect
as on the occasion of the raid of
Saturday.
The official press bureau gave out
the following statement this morning:
"a German dirigible set out in the
direction of Paris. where it arrived
soon after 10 p. IN. 1t was pombarded
by our special batteries and attacked
by our aeroplanes. Before returning
northward II dropped a number of
bombs, which, according to the news
received so far, did no damage"
Representatives of the Matin who
visited the scene of the raid said no
damage was done by the bombs.
Three of them fell on a piece of waste
ground and three others in a field. A
police inspector saw the three which
fell in the field. They did not sink
deep in the soil. They were covered
with a cotton-like substance which
burst into flame. The inspector char
acterized them as incendiary bombs.

PRETTY WIFE WORKED

L. Guy Klinger. Millersburg, has
never been a very good husband; he's
always been "too tired"
So a next door neighbor told Ad-
ditional Law Judge s. J. NJ. McCarrell
in January divorce court to-day when
pretty 'trs. Teenie Klinger asked the
law to unite the marital knot.
Up until the Ringers wedding day
June 1, 1912 Ringers work-a- day in
dustry had never been in question al
though, as one witness put 1t, he'd
never been exactly noted for hustling.
His bride had pretty good job in the
shoe factory at the time; so did King
er. The echo of the wedding bells
hadn't died away before Kllnger set
tied down to loaf.
"He quit his job and hasn't done
much since but liquor up in the bar
rooms when he could get a little
money together; other times he just
laid around on the grass in the
shade" a witness said.
He's TOO Tired
And Mrs. Klinger retained her old
job and worked away to keep the
house of Klinger together. January
IA, 1914, Klinger took his wife to visit
his folks at Dalmatia. Mrs. Klinger
returned one Sunday evening; to this
day Klinger has never returned. And
an indignant neigh bor, a bosom friend
of Mrs. Klinger expressed her opinion
of the wayward husband very forcibly

Navy Officials Believe That

BY .Assoeiated Press

Washington. Jan. 31.-All efforts OF
the Navy wireless and fiotilla or coast
euardships and war vessels to locate
the missing submarine K-5 had oeeh
futile I'D to late to-day. Navy ia De

bassee, which put in at Charleston o.
G. and gone on alone TO the submar-
inc base at Key West Fla.
Navy officials were not alarmed by
the absence of any report from the
submarine. They believe she may
have experienced trouble with her en-
gines but said her battery power was
sufficient to keep her under control in
that case. Failure to receive any re-
port from the vessel. they said, might
indicate that her wireless apparatus
has become deranged. The possibility
that the KS might have been run
down by steamer or schooner in the
fog was discus ed among officials who
thought such q collision would have
been reported before this by the larger
vessel.
Secretary Daniels ordered the de-
stroyers Sterret and Perkins enroute
from Pensacola to Charleston to search
for the missing submarine. The de-
stroyer Worden at Charleston, the
coast guard cutters Seminole and va
macraw and the buoy tender Mangrove
also are cruising for her.

Harbor After Being Held

By Associated Press

Charleston, S. c., Jan. 31.-Naval
lima coast early to-day for the United
States submarine KS, reported miss
ing since 1 o'clock Sunday morning,
but according to information available
here their efforts had been futile. The
submersible had not responded to
wireless calls sent out from shore sta
tions and naval vessels and this led
marine men to express fears that the
boat had suffered at least an accident
to her wireless apparatus. A heavy
fog hung over the coast between here
and Cape Roman, forty miles north of
here, where the KS last was sighted,
and this made more difficult the task
of the searchers.
The KS. with three other sub
marines of the same type-the k-l,
marine tender Tallahassee, left New
York January II for Key West. Fla,
for maneuverS in southern waters. Ine
Tallahassee and the other three sub
marines arrived off Charleston bar last
night, but were prevented from enter
ing the harbor by the fog.
FlotilIa Reaches Port
Arrival of the flotilla and its convoy
was followed by the Tallahassee's wire
less report to Washington naval Off
cals that the KS was missing. Shortly
after that naval boats in these waters,
including the destroyer Worden, the
coast guard cutters Yamacraw and
Seminole and the buoy tender Man
grove, were ordered to begin search.
No word had been received up to
a. m. to-day from the submarine k-5
or from the vessels which are search
ing for her according to the navy yard
officials.
The monitor Tallahassee and the
submarines XII, K-2 and KS came
into the Charleston harbor at $50
O'Clock this morning. They were held
outside all night because of the dense
fog.
Officers of the Tallahassee were
credited with the statement that moth
ing had been heard of the K-5. This
would Indicate that the wireless appa-
ratus of the missing submarine was
out of order. as the Tallahassee and
the coast guard cutters have used their
wireless extensively in an effort to find
the little vessel.

THE MAJORITY IS SOMETIMES.

Under the present legal system suspicion may be said to end and proof to exist when the eVl- dence is sufficient to convince twelve men who are gathered theoretically, haphazard. man then bent upon accusing another might perhaps be we'll guided if he waited until he had sufficient evidence to convince twelve men. But as these men must of necessity be possessed of unknown degrees of susceptibility to proof, the accuser IS no better off than when he consulted his own judgment. He doesn't know the twelve men whom he must convince and if he doesn't know the quality and quantity of testimony required to convince them.
 If conviction is the sole justification of accusa- tion, every acquittal should bring punishment to the man who swore out the complaint the at torney who prosecuted it and every person who had anything to do with it. We know however, that conviction is not an essential result of guilt that the chances are always in favor of the guilty; so we don't punish the prosecutors.
 It is an aXiem among grafters that 10000 per sons may know that grafter is guilty, but one can prove it. That is because we believe that 99 guilty might better escape than one innocent sui fer, the go dishonest men might better have a good name than one honest have bad name. This undoubtedly makes business easy for the grafter but it protects the honest man. There can be, and is graft that can not be proved, and because we are so reluctant to charge any graft where the probabilities of proof are not over whelming is why graft prospers.
 How much graft can be tolerated until the risk of furnishing an honest name is disregarded, de- bends on the changing attitude of the public mind Occasionally the quantity is small, occas- ionally it requires an enormous amount. In the end it amounts to this: those who believe the ac- cuser uphold the accusation, those who dsbe- lieve, denounce it, and whichever side the major ity is on, is right

out to suit our purpose in opposition to the truth Too many adopt an opinion because it is safe because it is useful because it may "help' oth- CTS. It may be perfectly proper sometimes to perform acts because they are eXpedent. This should not be carried in opinions.
 A business man may properly give credit to another for expediency, but that same business man should not form his opinion of the honesty of the favored for the same reason. It would be like bribing jury or judge. In bribing Judge pr jury, the intention is to make wrong act appear right. But this does not make it right, although for expediency it may make it appear so. In every act, the thing to consider then is that one point What is the truth?
 In politics specially, expediency is carried to extreme with some of us We seem to think that in c~der to gain something we can lie. In other words we make it eXpedient to lie, which often times result in great wrongs to others by mis- leading those who might have good opinion of the ones lied about. No wonder that truth is such jewel.
