FOUR MASKED MEN
ROB Medina farmer
w. H. DeHAvEN RELIEVED
OF HIS WHEAT MONEY
Was Returning From Wadsworth,
When Robbery Occurred. Half Of
Money Belonged to DIR. Damon

w. H. DeHaven, who rents the DR..
j. G. Damon farm, on Smith Road,
about three-quarters of mile east of
town, reported to the sheriff on We'd
nesday evening of this week that he
h ad been stopped by four men and at
the point of gun forced to turn over
about $500 which he had obtained
from the sale of wheat in Wadsw0rth.
The robbery occurred little before 7
o'clock on Crofoot hill.
DeHaven, according to his story, had
hauled several loads of wheat to
Wadsworth on Tuesday and received
a check for 1921 in payment for same
and Wednesday he hauled another load
and got about $64. This time he
cashed both checks and put the money
together with about $25 Of his own
money in a leather wallet and started
home.
When he ariverd at Crofcot hill,
just before reaching the diagonal, he
noticed four men standing about an
automobile, apparently fixing it. AS
he attempted to pass, two of the men
stepped in front of him with the re-
mark that they guessed he was the
man they were looking for, levelled
two guns at his head and relieved him
of his coin, about $500 in all.
DeHaven drove on after the rob-
berry until he reached the home OF
S. HI. Hoddinott, when he stopped and
notified the authorities. When ques-
toned by the sheriff he stated that
two of the men remained in the ma
chine, but the two who held him up
wore masks and each had a gun. He
was unable to give any description OF
the men or the machine.
The place which DeHaven farms
east of town is owned by DR.. Damon
and half of the wheat which the
farmer sold also belonged to the doc.
tor.

STARTS A ROW IN
|. ABRAMS STORE
HUFFMAN AND ABRAMS
BOTH FIGHT HARD
Abrams Charges That Huffman Bit
Him on His FOrehead-BlOOd
Flowed Freely in Melee

Earl Huffman, who works in a To-
cal foundry, was arrested at the in
stance of l.. Abrams, Medina mer-
chant, about noon Thursday. The
charge is assault.
According to the story of MIR.
Abrams, Huffman came into the
store somewhat under the influence of
liquor and wanted credit. He insisted
that MI. Abrams call up the shop
where he works and ask if his credit
was good for $40. Mr. Abrams re-
fused and told Huffman to call if he
wanted his statement verified.
Abrams refusal angered Huffman
and he began to call names and fl
nally struck Abrams in the face
across the counter. At this Abrams
came from behind the counter and a
scuffle followed. In the melee Abrams
was on top part of the time and al
other times Huffman. Finally Huff
man hit his head against the corner
of timber used to hold up the. Sec
ond floor in the repair work going on
cutting a severe scalp wound that bleC
profusely.
The Sheriff was called and arrested
Huffman and lodged him in the coun
ty Jail. Here his wounds were
dressed. The Sheriff insisted thai
Huffman was not seriously injured.
Mr.. Abrams and his clerks say tha
this is about the tenth time that Huff
man has made trouble in the store
and that one time previously there
was a row and a warrant sworn ou
but that friends of Huffman persuaded
Abrams not to have it served. Thi!
time Mr.. Abrams says he will pusl
his charge.

A Big COLLIE DOG
ATTACKS LITTLE LAD
WILL HOUSES COLLIE
BITES RICHARD WARNER
Boy IL Years Old Stops to Pet Big
( Dog and is ViciOusly Attacked
No Danger From Rabies

Richard Warner, the IL year old
son Of Mrs. G. R. Warner, of w.
Liberty street, was bitten by large
collie dog belonging to Will House,
on Lake road, two miles south of
Medina Saturday. The dog made a
scalp wound, requiring several
stitches to close it, on the back of the
little fellows head with his teeth, and
badly scratched his face with the
claws of his front paws.
The accident happened Saturday
just after dinner. Richard had gone
to the well for a final drink before
going out to play, and had stopped
on his return journey to the house
with the empty glass to pet the dog.
The animal did not like children, but
the boy had not been told of this. The
animal at once attacked him, knock
ing him down, and continuing to maui
and scratch him.
Not returning to the house as soon
as Mrs. House had expected him to,
she went to the door to caution him
about attempting to pet the dog. As
she opened the door she saw the dog
continuing the attack and at once
ran to the rescue of Richard. The
dog persisted and Mrs. House was
compelled to use force to beat him
off.
Richard was badly frightened
naturally, and Mr.. and Mrs. House
at once took him to DR.. Strong fol
medical attention. His wounds were
dressed, the Doctor stating there
was, in his opinion, little danger tt
be feared from them.
Dr., Orr was called in to examine
the dog and said there were nt
signs of disease in the dog and hi
felt there was little or no danger
from the bite or scratches.
Mr. and Mrs. House say that thu
dog, large and valuable collie, has
always manifested an aversion tt
children, and that they had intended
to impress this on the mind of Rich
ard, but had not done so up to tn,
time Of the accident. They did all il
their power to assure the comfort ant
safety of the lad. At this writing
Richard is suffering little from hi
Syounds, but his physician has coun
selled quiet for a few days to max
certain there shall not arise compli
cations.

CHASE NAKED MAN
ACROSS COUNTY LINE

Sheriff Bigelow was called to
Brunswick township last Friday
morning to look for man who was
running around the township sans
all signs of wearing apparel.
The man had been seen crossing
the Lewis farm between Brunswick
Center and Strongsville the day be-
fore and the next morning it was dis
covered that he had slept in the
Lewis haystack. Later several people
in the vicinity saw the naked gen.
tleman cutting across lots toward
the Cuyahoga county line. The sher-
if and County Clerk Geo. Frazier
beat the woods and along the road

MAY EXTEND MEDINA'S
RURAL DELIVERY ROUTES

H. X. Cockrane, post Office inspec-
tor of Elyria, was in Medina on
Monday of this week going over the
seven rural free delivery routes out of
the local office for the purpose of as
certaining, if possible, whether it is
feasible at this time to increase the
circuit covered by them.
The increasing the length of the
routes will mean the withdrawing of
several r. T. DIS. from smaller post
offices such as Sharon, Mallet Creek,
ETC., and would make some addition in
salary to the local carriers.

COUNTY GETS $4,000
ADDITIONAL FROM STATE

The county surveyors Office was in
receipt of good news on Monday of
this week when a telephone message
from Columbus revealed the fact that
Medina county had been allotted an
extra $4,000 this year for use in
county road work. This, according
to the surveyor, is in addition to the
$4,000 which the county received
on the $3.50 proposition.
While this sum will not be used
this year, it will mean that there will
be available next year about $4,000
from the state for road purposes,
which together with the $50, 1000 which
the county must put up will suffice
to build or improve many roads in the
county. ..

NEW BASIS FOR WAGE CLAIMS.

Last week the Director General took
% the President the demands of the
AWAY shopmen for an advance OF
wages. They abandon the claim for
IN advance primarily on account of
the cost of living, because that I'M
plies a reduction if the cost of living
lecines, and that. they declare, is
unacceptable to them. Their rres-
ant demand is fer pay equal to that
laid by the Government in navy
Yards and shipyards, which they es-
innate would give them 25 per cent
more. The shipyard pay was the
prime cause of the increase of wa
res in private industries, for they
ad to meet the Government scale
r lose their men. But the war is
over now. and standardization at the
.op is less in favor than it was, ex-
cept in union circles. Moreover,
there is no fair argument from rail-
way work to shipyard work, the oc-
equations are so different. If the
railway men tried to transfer them
selves to the shipyards to get the
wages they say are current there
by would find they could NOT earn
hem. AS railway men they have
Till less claim to an advance, aa ap-
}ears from the fact that their views
gere not accepted by the Rai!wa!
