COMPSON MAKES PLEA
FOR A NEW TRIAL
EATON, O., Dec. 2. Argument of a
motion for a new trial tor Edward
Compson, convicted of shooting with
intent to kill, was heard Monday by
Judge A. C. RIsinger in common pleas
court. Decision was reserved. Attor
ney H. G. King argued in behald of
the prisoner, while Prosecutor Phil
Saylor opposed the motion. The court
wishes to visit the premises where the
alleged shooting took place before he
finally disposes of the case; The charge
upon which Compson was convicted
subjects him to a term of from one to
twenty years in the penitentiary.
James Beasley, for whom Compton
worked, was Compson's alleged Intend
ed victim.
Eqity Gain.
With an adidtional 8 new members,
an Eaton branch of a county farmers
pquity union that is in process of for
mation has the required number of
members for organization of the local
branch, according to W. J. Ashworth,
who has been placed in charge of ttas
undertaking. He says no organization
is assured. This, he says, will take
place in a meeting to be held here
next Saturday evening at 7 o'clock at
the courthouse.
In a meeting last Saturday night at
the courthouse it was expected five di
rectors would be chosen, but in the
midat of the meeting the lighting
system in the building gave down anJ
the meeting adjourned. C. O. Drayton,
Greenville, 111., head of the National
Farmers' Equity Union, and Mr. Fish
er, of Arcanum, a director of a Darke
county equity union branch, addressed
the meeting.
Mrs. Taylor Asks Divorce.
Ralph M. Taylor is being sued in
common pleas court by his wife, Eva
Taylor, for divorce and alimony. She
charges gross neglect of duty. A re
straining order issued by the court
prevents Taylor disposing of property.
They have been married several
years.
Suits are Dismissed.
An entry filed in common pleas
court in a suit brought by Charles
Minderman against Roy Suman, in
which recovery of $595.85 was sought,
the amount representing notes, shows
the case was compromised and dis
missed without record.
A suit brouKht by Amy Fall Richard
son agalnet Sarah Jane Wehrly and
Homer Swihart, also was compromised
and dismissed without record. The
Euit had to do with a corn and tobacco
crop growing on a farm purchased by
thp plaintiff from Sarah Wehrly.
The court confirmed sale of property
involved in a foreclosure suit brough.
nv Asbury Decker, of Camden, against
Ida Nortman. The amount involved
was $303.50.
Motion is Argued.
Another hitch at argument of a mo
lion to dissolve a temporary injunc
tion isued in favor of the commission
ers of Preble county against the Ohio
Electric & Gas company of Middle
town, O., was taken Monday in com
mon pleas court, Judge A. C. Risinger
presiding, but conclusion was not
reached and the matter was continued
until Thursday. Arguments on the
motion were started a few days ago.
The commissioners sought the in
junction to prevent the company from
proceeding with building of an elec
trical transmission line in the south
western part of the county, upon the
ground that the company had no fran
chise from this county and that the
work was obstructing traffic on a
highway.
Sues for Alienation.
Trial of the $20,000 damage suit of
Harry Charles, of near Camden,
against Curtis E. Kenworthy, a neigh
bor, is scheduled to start Thursday
in common pleas court. Charles al
leges his wife's affections were alien
ated by Kenworthy. Charles recently
obtained a divorce from his wife. Ho
named Kenworthy in his bill of com
plaint.

HIS WIFE'S HEALTH
IS SO IMPROVED
Was Always Complaining of
Dull Headaches, Pains in
Her Back Over Her Kidneys,
Gas in Her Stomach; Con
stipation. Declares Dreco Has Put a Stop
to All These Ailments.
"I can't praise Dreco highly enough
for the good it did my wife," are the
words of Mr. Henry Gates, 2007 E.
Eighth street, Muncie, Ind.
"She was always complaining of
backache, pains over her kidneys and
weakness of the back. After each
meal her stomach would fill up with
gas and often griping pains would
strike her in the stomach. A lump
would rise in her throat that made
her feel like she was choking. Her
bowels were badly constipated and
she had to take medicine for his
trouble every night; if she didn't she
would suffer the next day; splitting
headaches sometimes put her in bed.
"The first bottle of Dreco worked a
big change in her; her bowels became
regular; pains left her back; she
hasn't had a headache in some time
now and her nerves are quieted so
that she sleeps all night now. Her
stomach is greatly improved and
nothing seems to upset it. as before.
The gas does not form and she
doesn't have that choking either. I
eure am happy over her improved
condition and we both think Dreco is
line."
Stomach trouble is the direct cause
of more derangements of the nervous
ystem and general functions than any
other ailment. No other remedy has
teen declared such a success as Dre
co, which is a combination of Nature's
own remedies for the blood, stomach,
liver and kidneys, as is being proven
by the many testimonials being daily
given by well known citizens.
Mr Powers, the well known Dreco
expert, has headquarters "at Thlstleth
waite's Drug Stores, to meet the local
public and explain the merits of this
great remedy. See him today. Adv.
Do You Believe World's
End Near? Some Seem To
Do you think the world's coming to
an end Dec. 17?
One girl in a Richmond store, asked
the manager Monday if she could be
off on that date, as she wanted to be
at home when the catastrophe hap
pened, and other Richmond persons
have been heard discussing the
prospect seriously.
The sensational reports have arisen
from wild articles on the fact that the
planets except the earth, will be in
line, exerting a pull of gravitation on
the sun, which is expected by astrono
mers to cause disturbances on the
sun's surface. These disturbances,
said the sensationalists would cause
the sun to be pulled apart, and the re
sulting onrush of flames would swal
low the earth.
Astronomers only smile gently, how.
ever. "This position of the planets is
always occurring, though not quite so
pronouncedly as this time," they say,
"and we're still here, aren't we?"
