lives Of Stanley Stanczek and four Of
his children, ranging in ages from two

smoke and flames escaping from an
open window on the second floor of the
house. which was a three-story brick

His whistle brought Sergeant Frank
Lizanti, and together they broke into
the basement and made their way
through that smoke-flled compartment,
guided by the screams of Mrs. Stanc-
EEK, to the rear Of the building. Mrs.
Stanczek had been reused by her young

This growing hair tonic cocktail habit
brought Sergeant Harding a lot Of
hard luck yesterday.
He went to Trenton aboard an army
motorcycle with side car to get tom

Of tonic and other boquettish smelling
fluids in the side car. When near Co.

automobile. The sergeant executed a

CANTON, Ohio, Aug 27-Zebulon W.
Davis, wealthy Canton and Cleveland
manufacturer was arrested here to-day
by Deputy United States Marshal D. J.
Conner on charge of using the mails
to defraud. Davis, through his attor-
neys, waived q reading Of the affidavit
when arraigned before United State s
Commissioner Julius Whiting jr. and
was released on $4,000 bond for his
appearance in the Federal Court in
Chicago.
Davis believes the s5oo,o worth of
notes bearing his alleged signature
which were found by Federal authori-
ties in Milwaukee, may be some notes
nearly twenty years old which were
issued when Davis was associated with
c. V. French in the Canton, Akron &:
Youngstown belt line railroad. 1t was
in connection with this project that
Davis lost s2,5OO,0o0 The Canton
manufacturers attorneys say that f
the notes are not these then they are
forgeries. 1t was the discovery Of these
notes which led the authorities to order
Davis's arrest. Denial that he has been
involved with John W. Worthington or
French in any deals Is made by Davis.

Stanczek put the lasso about his

mately $4,000, is being installed in
the Swedish Bethany church on
Franklin Square by the NJ. p. Moller
company, manufacturers. at Hagers-
town, Maryland.
The organ has 20 stops with a total
of 1,4OQ pipes and will come up to
the standard of any in the city in
tone and beauty. Work is under
way at present and it is expected that
by the first of next month dedication
exercises will be held. The organ
was to have arrived and been in
stalled on July 1, but difficulties pre-
vented this. The organ is operated
by electricity and has three tones,
those of choir. great and swell.
The instrument is being purchased
through an organ fund which has
been under way at the church for the
past three years and the amount is
almost reached. The church was
dedicated last April and since then
the Young Peoples society has
divided into three teams which are
striving to-. obtain the sum required.
AT the first of the year more than
$4,000 had been raised.
The various organizations have

of the edifice and is certain that his
congregation feel the same way. The

the church as at present a miniature
one is in use. Miss Edna Carlson is
