after A WHIRLWIND
COURTSHIP Ed Smith
FACES BIGAMY CHARGE
Relatives Become Suspicious
When Divorce Papers Are
Served; Prisoner Admits His
Guilt After Arrest.
WAVES HEARING AND is
BOUND OVER; BOND $1,000

His desire to live in a married state
cost Edward E. Jones, of Detroit
former Medina county farmer, his
liberty and landed him in the county
Jail where he awaits trial on the
charge of bigamy.
Jones spent the summer working as
farm hand for Walter Clark. While
employed here he met Carrie Beard,
daughter of H. C. Beard, of Wads-
worth road. After whirlwind court
ship the couple were married in Me-
dina on October 16, this year.
Following a short honeymoon the
couple left for Detroit, where Jones
obtained a position in one of the au-
tomobile factories. The couple lived
in the same house with the girls
uncle.
Jones' first wife, who resides in
Barberton, started divorce proceed
ings against Jones in October this
year, shortly after his marriage to
the Beard girl. A summons was
served on Jones and in some manner
the uncle became wise to the situa-
tion.. He at once notified the girls
father, who started an investigation.
Upon finding that Jones had wife
living Beard took a train to Detroit,
arriving there last Thursday. He
found his daughter in hospital, suf-
fering with an attack Of scarlet fever.
Jones, when confronted by the irate
father-in-law, admitted his guilt, it is
said. ..
The father returned to Medina inn
mediately and interested the prose-
cutting attorney who swore out a war
rant Saturday charging Jones with
bigamy. The sheriff wired to Detroit
and was later informed by Detroit po-
lice that they had arrested Jones. He
agreed to waive extradition and
Deputy Hange left Monday to get his
prisoner. s
When questioned by the sheriff, up
on his arrival at the jail, Smith ad-
mitted his guilt, but qualified this
with the statement that he had taken
it for granted that his first wife had
obtained divorce, previous to his
second marriage and had acted in
good faith.
Thursday morning Smith was taken
before Justice of the Peace Aims
worth, where he waived hearing
and was bound over to the grand jury
under bond of $1,000.

MEDINA FIRE DEPT.
HAS ROAST PIG SUPPER

The members of the Medina fire
department, an efficient volunteer or
ganization, had big time in social
evening last Thursday night.
The 20 members of the department
met at the log cabin on the farm of
/. H. Kennedy for a pig roast. There
were hot coffee and other things to
match up the roast pig, with social
season after the feed. Naturally just
the reading of this will make your
mouth water; and of couse, it goes
without saying that the fire ladies
had most ENJOYABLE time.

The publication by the Sentinel,

grand jury in Cleveland of the ac-

of Paul Johnson's death in the Muir

in the neighborhood where CLYDE

a Medina lawyer and set about to

nothing that would throw additional

indications it would seem otherwise,

made some little investigation and he
feels there are things in connection

COMMITTEES MONDAY
Observance Committee to Plan
For Community Christmas in
the Public Square, If it Deems
it Advisable.
COMMITTEE TO FIX UP
AUNT SOPHIA'S POND

There was a meeting called Of the
members of the Medina Community
Club at the library Monday evening.
Principal among the events of the
evening was the announcement Of the
several committees to direct the gen.
eral work of the proposition.
After the announcement of the
committees there was general dis
cussion Of the proposition as a whole
and several present made reports on
their personal findings in general
consideration Of the matter. 1t was
the consensus Of opinion that if Me-
dina proposed to do anything it was
wise to do something worthy the at
tempt. A small rest room would
mean the institution Of convenience,
but such an affair was too petty to
be given serious thought, though at
the outset this was a crying need that
had called attention to the greater le-
quirement.
Certain members of committees are
at work on one or two propositions
that are mt yet ready for public
consumption, but the promise was
made that these matters would soon
be threshed into shape so that public
consideration could be accorded them
Special matters considered was the
proposition Of a Community Christ
mas-in the Square, as often in the
past-and the matter was referred to
the Community Observance Com
mittee for it's final sanction and il
decided on for proper institution.
The second item was consideration
Of adding conveniences for the young
people at Aunt Sophia's pond. It was
felt that a small shelter house anc
electric lights for the shelter house
and pond would add greatly to, the
pleasures of the young folks seeking
this form of amusement. The Recre.
ational committee was given carte
blanc in the matter. p ~ Z

FORD FAVORS GREAT
 WAR F LEAGUE OF
 NATIONS PLAN FAILS
Auto Magnate Asserts He Is Now for Preparedness to the Hit" = Day in Court Brings Many Sen sations

MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich, July 15. Ford's view in regard to internationaal relations since he blossomed out as a pacifist propagandist in 1915, for now according to his testimony in his s1, 900, 900 libel suit against the Chicago Daily Tribune, he favors another great war without delay if the present plan for a league of nations fails.
 The Henry Ford who, in 1916, was opposing the sending of the national guard to the Mexican border and urg- ing the United States to take the lead in disarmament, asserted today that he is now for preparedness to the hilt" if it appears that this new war is nec- essary. He took the position as a wit ness, that now is the time to establish universal peace, and that if the great war which ceased in the field last No- vember does not result in a league which will assure that peace, there can be no better time than the present to renew the strife.
 According to MT. Ford most of the pacifist propaganda distributed broad cast in his name was written by Theo- dore Delavigne, a publicity agent em- ployed by him to educate the public, as he put it, as to the waste and horror of var and to it's needlessness. More often than not, said MI. Ford. these ar- guments were sent out without him having read them at all. He repeatedly stated, however, that he assumed full responsibility for the propaganda and in his answers to questions propounded by Attorney Elliott G. Stevenson, rep- resenting the Tribune, he affirmed all the essential clements put in print by Mir. Delavigne.
 He interposed one important qualifi- cation regarding the use of the ore paredness." What he meant, he said was over preparedness" In 1916 he said he considered the United States was sufficiently prepared for defense and hence he opposed additions to the army and navy Mir. Stevenson pointed out that in none of the articles was the word lover preparedness" employed but instead MT. Ford urged that the United States should assume leader ship in complete disarmament in the belief that the rest of the world would follow this example.
 T still think it is a good plan" said the witness.
 Outstanding features of the day were: Production of the flag of humanity or World Brotherhood" flag con structed by Ford employees without au- thorization by MT. Ford but inspired apparently, by one of his utterances.
 MT. Ford's admission that he still considers wars of aggression as mur- der and professional soldiers, not ever excepting General Grant and Genera Pershing as murderers;
 His reiteration that to him history was so much bunk" and an admission that on many subjects he was ignorant although he did not consider himself ar ignorant idealist" as charged by tn, Tribune in the alleged libelous editoria of June 23, 1916, headed Ford is ar Anarchist"

WASHINGTON, July 15. -Conside- "a tion in the house today of the sundry civil appropriation bill as remodeled to meet the objections raised by the pres ident in vetoing it. precipitated a par tisan battle which finally prevented further progress on the measure and ended only when the republicans forced through a motion to adjourn.
 The discussion began when the rules committee brought in a special rule for the immediate consideration of the ap- propriation measure, changed to pro- vide s12,000, 900 for the rehabilitation. of wounded soldiers and sailors, in- stead of s6, 000,00 as originally carried.
 Democrats opposed the resolution, declaring that if it were adopted and the sundry civil bill would be passed, it would enable the republicans to evade placing themselves on record as being opposed to the presidents veto, and that therefore opposed to an in crease in the appropriation for the vo- cational training board. They con- tended that a presidents veto accord ing to the constitution, would have to be rejected, or accepted by a record vote.
 Republicans argued, however, that such course was backed by precedent and would expedite action on the meas ure. Speaker Gillett overruled point of order raised by Minority Leader Champ Clark and the resolution was adopted by substantial majority
