.PEDDL|NG Lemons
WITHOUT A LICENSE
Itinerant Dealer is Accused of
Stealing Groceries From
Porch Of Grant Street Home
Last Saturday.
OFFICER in BARE FEET
PURSUES AND ARRESTS

Spring weather is bringing out the
peddlers Of small wares that were
shut up during the winter by the i'm
possibility of securing entrance to the
homes and a hearing from the house
wife. Saturday a lemon peddler
from the city came to Medina and
started on his rounds. Later he was
arrested and taken before Justice
Ainsworth and charged with peddling
without license, and was assessed,
and paid, fine and costs totalling
$7.85 and was then discharged.
Shortly before noon the peddler ap-
peared on Grant street. The charge
was made that some So worth of GRO
ceries, standing on the porch at the
home of George Van were stolen and
this peddler in particular was accus-
ed Of the theft. Shortly after dinner
Officer al Young was called at his
home and complaint laid at the door
of the peddler. Young, who was in
bed at the time-he sleeps daytimes
after patrolling the streets all night
was called and got up; but before he
could dress the accused was seen pas
sing his home and he ran out in his
bare feet and pursued the fellow,
overlook him and arrested him.
The man was taken before Squire
Ainsworth. AS it was easier to con-
vict Of peddling without license than
to convict Of theft the former charge
was entered against him. Admission
was made by defendant and the fine
assessed, paid and the man set at lib
erty. The man gave the name of
Paul Donthan.
Housewives will do we'll to bear in
mind that many small peddlers use
that deception to make them i'm
mune from arrest, under suspicion, of
small thefts. Small tools and hose,
and small articles Of easy sale left ly-
ing around loose are picked up by
these people and sold to "fences" in
the cities. A smart salesman compe-
tent to pick up and conceal small ar
ticles can make several times as much
stealing these things as he can in sell
ling his wares. The thefts form a
large part of the Earnings" that
come from the wanderings of these
people. It were wise to keep small
tools and things Of value under cover
at all times, and to keep one eye open
until any itinerant has left the prem
ises.

EVANGELIST MENGES
AT new TABERNACLE
DRAWS Big CROWDS
"Big Top" Crowded to Full Cap
acity at Sunday Nigt Service
Evangelist and Workers At
Their Best.
81 PRIZE FOR FARMER
BRINGING BIGGEST LOAD

The evangelistic meeting in the
Church of Christ Tabernacle began
last week and on Sunday evening the
crowds had SO swollen that standing
room was at premium. People
stood up in every available space over
the Tabernacle, two score boys sat
around the edge of the speakers plat
form, the aisles were filled and every
one that could crowded inside the "big
top"
Evangelist Menges and his workers
were at their best on this occasion.
They gave a program Of music, as
sisted by the choir and local musicians
and the Evangelist made an appeal
for men and women to lead better
life.
Upwards Of 800 were present at the
Sunday night meeting, the best attend
ed meeting SO far held. Afternoon
meetings will be held during the week,
for juniors. These meetings will be
held just after the hour of pupil re-
lease from the schools so as to give
the boys and girls an opportunity to
attend with small chance of being
crowded. They will continue but 30
minutes, SO as not to tire the little
folks.
During the week there will be COT
tage prayer meetings held in the
homes at 10 a. m. These will be
held at the four points of the compass
covering the whole town.
There will be an afternoon meeting
next Sunday, for women and girls:
this will be addressed by the Evange-
list. The hour has not been definite
ly determined yet, but it will be held
early enough so as not to interfere
with the Vesper Service in the M. E.
church on the same afternoon.
Next Sunday night will be special
Farmers night" At that service
a prize of 81 will be given to the farm
er coming the greatest distance to the
meeting; a second prize of So will be
given to the farmer bringing the
greater number in his load. Special
effort will be made, too, to seat those
coming from the country districts.
| The Tabernacle holds somewhat of
a fascination for people who have tir-
ed OF the conservative church edifice;
these people are turning out in large
numbers and the Evangelist hopes to
be able to do them much good. The
formalities of the church service pals
on the nerves of certain people and
the easy go lucky surroundings of the
Tabernacle or "big top" has an es-
pecial appeal for them. These people
will be given warm welcome at
the meetings in the Tabernacle and
an effort put forth to make them feel
at home. All are urged to attend
these meetings, go often and early.

LOCAL TRAINS TO
AKRON PROMISED
Present Freight - Passenger
Run Will Be Made Almost Ex-
clusively Passenger Already
Greatly Imjroved.
NEW ELECTRIC DRIVEN
CARS TO BE INSTALLED

One of the higher-ups of the A. C.
Y. Ry. Co., lessees of the N. O. Ry.,
was in the city Tuesday and while
here talked of the improvements to
be instituted on that line as fast as
conditions of operation and possibil-
tiles of the purchase of equipment
will permit. He is most sanguine as
to what the road will do within the
next year, and of the service it will
offer to Medina in particular.
Two new freight trains began MAX
ing ruins over the line Monday. One
of these carried 1000 tons of freight
on its first run. This is nothing
wonderful judged by the big trains
run on the Penna. or Lake Shore, but
measured by the 300 ton trains of the
past it means big step upward.
These new trains are but the begin
ming of better service which is to
be instituted on the N. O.
This official assures the Sentinel
scribe that he was absolutely correct
in his statement that the officers of
the company contemplate the insti-
tuition Of local passenger service be-
tween Medina and Akron. Service
is imperative from Akron half way
he says, and to come to Medina will
entail but little additional cost. Sc
the officials have decided on this ex.
tension of service and will put it into
effect as soon as added equipment can
be secured.
The company has been operating
gas cars for some time on it's line and
say they are in every way success.
But the new General electric equip
ment, in which a gas engine runs a
generator, makes it possible to oper-
ate the car by electricity, in this way
giving the motorman a more mobile
manipulation. The company has
orders in for this style of cars and as
soon as equipment can be secured runs
will begin between Akron and Medina.
Within year, it is promised, the
people of Medina will find that they
have an "honest to God" railway, with
a satisfactory service. The line will
always be largely freight road, and
that is the side of the business now be
ing developed as fast as possible.
But already much of the freight busi-
ness has been taken from The local
train so as to improve the passenger
feature of that part of the service. So
soon has it been made possible to in
sure closer run on schedule, freights
will be eliminated, and passenger SER
vice improved, until the present pas
senger train will be in fact as well as
name passenger train.

MEDINA MACHINE CO.
in REORGANIZATION
Capitalization Of 100000
Necessary to Branch Out and
Manufacture New Accessories
Offered
THE OFFICERS RETAINED
SAME AS OLD COMPANY.

Ine Medlna Machine Co. is no more,
having been succeeded by the Medina
Manufacturing Co. The officers and
management are the same in the new
company but the company has taken
on new life and multiplied it's capital
and will soon begin to double and
treble its capacity and add to it's floor
space units. This reorganization
has much Of good to offer to Medina
and its business interests; it promis-
es more than any in the way Of de-
velopment and expansion than any
single enterprise within the history Of
Medina.
The capitol Of the. company has
been increased from $76, 900 To 81 ,000l
g00. The shares will be iii $40 UNITS.
rart OF the stock will be preferred,
drawing q per cent, the balance COM
mon, earning what it may. In the
sale OF the new stock-the preferred
will be sold at par and so per cent of
your preferred stock purchase will be
given you in common. At this time
only $40O,O0O of new stock will be
put on the market.
New machinery will be added to
the equipment, new units will be
erected for manufacturing expansion,
new offices will be erected and the
present building housing the Offices
turned into manufacturing unit,
1t is expected to more than double the
manufacturing space within a wear
and to much more than double the
product. The company can already
see the need for 100 additional men
within the year. These men can and
will be added as fast as houses can
be found or built to provide homes for
the married men among the new en-
ployes, and married men always pro-
vide a more stable force of workmen.
The big incentive for this expansion
and increase in capital comes in con-
tracts secured for new auto spot
light. The company already has con
tracts for the manufacture of 50O,U 900.
1t is intended to fix up for the max
ing of 1000 day, in addition to the
other work the company is now turn
ing out and for which it has contracts.

same as those of The Medina Machine

Since this article on the paw

Gently the Legislature has pass
ed a special emergency law pro-
viding way for Councils in
financially burdened cities to
take steps, by and with the con-
ent Of the electorate, whereby
the immediate financing of need
ed improvements may be made.
Council in this way was given
an opportunity to do something
for the N. Court street improve
ment. As soon as this was
made possible the City Dads met
on Wednesday evening; to be
exact and passed emergency
legislation.
Council has now met the Co.

Medina is to be congratulated
that the Legislature has shown

the street committee will be on
the alert to see that the con-
tractor does his full duty, and
does it quickly.

English Fights
Renew Rivalry
After 5 Years
Dark Blues Expected to
Beat the Light Blues in
Thames Race Saturday
By Frank Getty

From The E'ssbunc's European Bureau

LONDON, March 22.-There is per-
haps no sporting event in the world
around which hang such venerable ira
ditions and historic associations. and
upon which is focused 80 keenly the
interest of an entire nation, as the
Oxford Cambridge boat race. Interest
in the event, now hardy sporting an
nual of seventy-one springs, is more
than national.
Next Saturday the crews Of Oxford
and Cambridge will meet for the first
time in six years on the historic four
and-a-quarter-mile Thames course from
Putney to Mortlake. Officer crews COM
peted in the Henley Regatta last June,
but the coming race is, in effect, the
first test of university aquatic suprem
acy since 1914.
one years the Dark Blue and Light
Blue oarsmen met over the Thames
tidewaters. Oxford has won thirty-nine
of these contests, Cambridge thirty-one
and there was a famous and thrilling
dead heat in 1877.
This year finds Oxford favorite in
so many races ofthe past, again picked
to win, although the closest Of finishes
is looked for by the rowing experts.
Cambridge has the heavier crew, an
unusually heavy set of bow oarsmen in
the Light Blue boat having necessitated
rerigging the she'll. From No. to No.
d, inclusive, the Cambridge oarsmen
average more than 1870 pounds, .
weighty average even for the waist or
stern of racing shell.
A feature this year has been the
sporting spirit of the president of the
Oxford crew, whose position is vastly
superior to that of Harvard or Yale
crew captain. He is virtually dictator,
having authority over the coaches. Yet
this year he has given up his seat in
the boat 20 another undergraduate who
is considered by coaches and by the
president himself to be the better man.
Of Oxford Cambridge races has the
president been missing from either
boat, and on each occasion he was in
capacitatd through accident

AS a baseball game it was a good
circus. The Giants got away to a three
run lead in the first inning and in the
second took all of the interest out of
the pastime by adding six more runs.
1t was not until the fifth, when Shut
fin Phil Douglas eased UP, that the
Red Sox crossed the plate. In this
round a base on balls, an intield hit,
singles by Hooper and McNally and a
home run by Mike Menosky gave the
Red Sox five runs.
RUDE Benton pitched the last four
innings and played with the sox until
the ninth. Then the RUDE Just lobbed
the ball over the plate, and the Ameri-
can Leaguers scored three runs before
Fletcher brought the game to close
by taking Marsans's fly. Although Ben
ton is suffering from several pet bun
ions, he looks fit and ready.
The day was anything but favorable

The playing field is nothing but red
sand, and this made it hard for the
outtields to judge fly balls. Once the

Frank Frisch, the Fordham lad, in
serted the first big blow for the
Giants. Burns singled in the first and
STATE walked. After Fletcher was re-
tired Doyle also strolled, filling the
bases. Kauff fouled out .Thereupon
Frisch cleared the sacks with Il terrific
three-base smash over Harry Hooper's
head. Karr next walked Kelly and
Smith, once more tanning the bases
Douglas hit under a curve ball and
fouled to Devine.
In the second inning the slaughter
was resumed. STATE singled and Fletch-
er was safe on SCOTS error Doyle
again walked. This time Kauff tripled
down the right foul line, STATE, Fetch
er and Doyle crossing the plate.
Bill Brennan umpired the game
alone because Manager McGraw left
word with Matty not to play if Gus
Rooney, the Boston scribe, worked on
the bases. Ed Barrow, of the Red Sox,
insisted that Rooney be permitted to
work, but allowed the pastime to start
with Brennan as the only umpire when
the crowd demanded action. McGraw

players in Dallas Sunday night.
