Robert Underwood Johnson, brother
of Henry u Johnson, of this city, and
former ambassador to Italy, had made
journeys between Rome and Naples
in the airship Roma, recently wrecked

In a letter written to his brother,
Mr.. Johnson mentions the fact that
he was personally acquainted with
three men who met their death in the
wreck, Major John Thornell. Captain

SEED TAGGING RULES
: EXPLAINED TO AGENTS

Tagging of seed which Is for sale
must be enforced under the new seed
law If the seed is advertised in any
outside medium, or if the sale is made
by any other than the grower, or If
delivery to the buyer is made by the
grower, according to an explanation
made by A. A. Hansen, of Purdue,
speaking before the monthly county
agents conference at Newcastle on
Thursday.
In case of a farm sale at which seed
is sold, it should be tagged if the auc-
tioneers conduct the sale, as the man
concluding the sale is responsible for
the quality. If untagged, the farmer
should auction it off himself. Seed
must be removed from the premises
by the purchaser, if untagged, the
grower no. being allowed to deliver
untagged seed
The new seed law, and the problem
of weed control, especially control of
white-top in Wayne county, will be
discussed by Mr.. Hansen at meeting
in Wayne county late in March, an
nounced Wayne county Agent ]. L.
Dolan on Friday. All farmers Of the
county who are interested and deal
ers in seeds in Richmond and other
cities of the county will be invited to
the meeting.
The condition of the Randolph coun.
ty agent, R. A. Fields, who Is in the
Randolph county hospital with a Sc
we're case of double pneumonia, was

Y. M. B. C. Will BUILD
HUT AT. BOYS CAMP;
AWARD FARM PRIZES

Members of the Young Mems Bust
ness club, meeting in the X. of P. Tenn
pie Thursday evening, took action to
wind up the affairs of the club, tempo
rarily, and voted to retain the charter
of the organization pending future ac-
tion.
The name of the Young Mems Bust
ness club will not disappear from the
city of Richmond, however. Two funds
were established out of the funds of
the organization at the meeting. One
fund will go to build hut for the
/; Boys Camp, the hut to be christened
! in honor of the club. Ray Weisbrod,
/ Roy Hodge and Ed Wilson were ap-
pointed as members of a committee to
see to the expenditure of the SITS the
club voted to this fund
Paul James, Walter Fulghum and
Dempsey Dennis were appointed on
committee to take charge of another
fund of $175 which goes into Farm
Boys Premium fund, for the benefit
of the farm boys of Wayne county The
fund will establish premiums for boys
showing corn at the corn shows in
this city, and will be shown as the
Young Mems Business club premium
fund.
Constructive Uses
/ In establishing these two funds the
membership took into consideration a
number of other worthy causes in the
city. Debate brought up the names
of several organizations capable of
using the money. 1t was the opinion
of the organization membership, how
ever, that the two funds established
were the most constructive uses to
which the money could be put, and at
the same time were as near the orig
inal aims of the club as possible.
A bill of SIS for the Peele factory
opening, which had been paid by indi-
viduals at the time it was contracted
was taken over by the club and paid
as a civic duty.
A contingent fund of S17 was left in
the treasury, and the charter was OF
dered held by the chairman of the
meeting, +. K. TWigg.

CONVICT TWO EATON
SAUT0 THIEVES after
EXTENDED LITIGATION

EATON, Ohio, Feb 24.-The locally
famous Ransom L. Estes and William
Mills automobile theft case, after three
years litigation in the courts, has
preme court decision affirming the
lower courts, in which the accused
were declared guilty. Mandate from
the supreme court was received here
Thursday at the office of County Clerk
of Courts V. o. Rookstool. The case
was received in the supreme court
early last summer.
Found guilty in common pleas court,
Judge A. G.. Risinger, after denying
retrial of the case, sentenced Estes
to from one to seven years in the pen
itentiary and Mills to from one to
seven years in the state reformatory.
Estes and Mills stand convicted of
stealing an automobile from the ga
rage of S. C. Richie, banker, in New
Paris, January, 1919. Arrested in In
dianapolis with the car in their pos
session, they were brought to Eaton
and held to common pleas court from
squire's court, under $3.50 bond eacL,
which they furnished.
Set For September.
The May, 1919, grand jury indicted
them. Later the trial date was set
for the latter partof September, but a
half dozen or more pOstponements
were granted and finally the case was
tried in October, 1920, and resulted in
conviction of the accused. Refused
new trial, appeal on error was taken
to the appellate court, which, after
lengthy delay, affirmed common pleas
court. Pending decision of the higher
court, Estes furnished $4,000 bond and
Mills $4,000 bond. The same bonds
were permitted to stand when appeal
81 error from the appellate court to
Nfe supreme court was taken. Govern
ment bonds in the aggregate of $4,000
are held by local banker as surety
on the bonds of the two men.
At the time of their arrest Estes
said to be a physician, gave his resi-
dence at Mattoon, Ill. Mills claimed
he lived in Missouri. Estes Is ar
uncle of Mills.
Shot in Illinois.
Allegedly trapped in an attempt tC
steal an automobile, Estes was shot
and wounded by police last summer
in an Illinois town, according to ar
Illinois newspaper received here by P
A. Saylor, former county prosecutor
who prosecuted the case against Estes
and Mills in the courts here.
Later Marshal Willard Armstrong
received advices from Chicago police
that Estes was under arrest there and
request made for the numbers or
the government bonds held here as
security. It developed the bonds were
originally the property of relative oi
Estes and Mills and had been put VI
by him TO secure their bondsman.
