but aroused her mother. They heard
somebody muttering. AS they have
no telephone, they we're forced to
wait until the man left their home
shortly before 6 o'clock. They hurried
to neighbor's and called the sheriff.
Doup, for it was he, left the Brown
home and walked toward the park.
The sheriff picked up his trail there
and followed it about a half mile be-
yond the home Of L. B. Evans where
he over took the man.
Doup was wearing straw hat and
carried piece Of glass, about by 4
inches, in his hand. In his pockets
were found bits of crockery which
had been broken up.
Doup is about As years of age and
has relatives in the county. He is un-
married. Sheriff Mossholder will
await the advice of Doup's brother,
Jacob, until he takes any steps.

DUTY OF u. S. PLAIN
IN PRESENT CRISIS
College Choir Adds Greatly
To Largely Attended
Meeting

Justifying some wars as struggles
Tor the upholding of great moral prin.
ciples and pleading that the citizens
OF the United States, in case of en-.
try of this country into the world
conflict, realize and practice a high
devotion to patriotic duty, DR.. William
Foster Peirce, president of Kenyon
college, discoursed at the Y. M. c. A.
Sunday afternoon before the largest
audience yet to attend one of the SER
les OF the weekly meetings which that
institution has arranged for the month
OF March, and made so deep an i'm
preston thar an invitation, willingly
accepted, was extended to him to re-
turn and speak again at some future
time.
One of the very attractive features
of the afternoon was the singing of the
Kenyon college choir of 25 voices un-
der the leadership of James P. De-
Wolf, former chorister at st. Paurs
Episcopal church of this city. The
choir used the Episcopalian and Y. M.
q. A. hymn books and also drew from
the store Of Kenyon songs, giving a
concert Of Is minutes duration at the
conclusion of the services of the af-
ternoon. During this latter period, a
number of rollicking, as we'll as seri-
GUS, songs were used and the audience
was vorv munh da1;obtad
Following prayer by the Rev. Will
liam e. Hull, rector of st. Paul's Epis-
copal church of this city, Secretary d.
M. Spence of the Y M. c. A. presented
President Peirce, the latter starting
his talk with an expression of keen
delight over the prospect of address
ing an audience composed of his "fel-
low citizens of Knox county"
"Is War Ever Christian" was the
topic chosen by Pres. Peirce a fort
night ago, when asked to speak at the
meeting and he took occasion to COM
ment upon how much more timely it
has become in view of the information
al developments of the past 4S hours.
"Not for 100 years has the sky of
the United States been so overcast in
international relations as is the case
now," declared DR.. Peirce at the outset
of his address. He continued, I'VE
have just passed the parting of the
ways with Germany in the last 48
hours and God grant that the breach
will be no wider"
The condemnation of war, as con-
tanning in itself anything of Christ
ian character, which is heard ON all
sides came in for consideration by the
speaker who agreed that war seeming
ly is in violation of all principles of
brotherly love and friendship-the es-
sence of Christianity. War is declared
to be "the bankruptcy of civilization"
civilization committing suicide" and
the like, DR.. Peirce stated and proceed
ed to inquire into the truth of these
allegations.
A vivid picture of the attractions of
war was presented-their ravages and
consequent desolations "The intensi.
