Visited By Robbers Who Secure
Money and Jewelry.
Robbers visited two residences
at Stony Ridge early Sunday morn
ing and secured about fifty dollars,
in money and two gold watches
and other jewelry.
The home of Henry Rcifcrd was
entered and about twenty dollars,
a gld watch and other jewelry was
taken by (the intruders who were
not heard until they were leaving
and got away before they were seen
by any of the occupants ( of the
house.
The home of Mr. Davies was
also entered and at the point of a
gun he was forced to tell where his
money, which amounted to about
thirty dollars, was. He told them
that it was in his suit case but his
visitors said they had already found
it and wanted some more but he
was unable to satisfy them when
he said that was all he had in the
house so they took his watch and
departed leaving no address.
He was not able to describe the
robbers as he was forced to keep
his face to the wall while they were
in the room.

If the man who enjoys driving
his own car desires to test his car,
his ability and nerve as a driver,
as well as his temper, let him drive

wants.
The worst roads to be found
along the route are those of Wood
and Sandusky counties, and plain
ly demonstrates that Ohio has the
most idiotic road laws, or, that
Ohio County Commissioners have
the least sense in the administra
tion of those laws.
When is an "improved" road
not a road? The answer is
after it has been neglected until
it has become rutted and full of
holes and after passing Le
Moyne there is very little of the
Fremont pike that can boast of
the name of "good" road.
Pennsylvania and New York
btatcs can give Ohio many ex
amples of road building and
maintenance that inignt prove
profitable.
The Wood county automobile
club can demonstrate its worth
and usefulness by asking the
county commissioners to require
all road and bridge contractors to
provide suitable and safe detours
around sections of road or bridges
that are being improved. This is
a feature of the work in York
state that finds approval by all
classes of people who must use
the roads Such conditions are
notably lacking in Ohio.
After leaving Ohio I found
every mile of the route indicated

There is the same "Reason
Why" to be told concerning this
great tragedy that is so often the
cause of similar occurrences, and
is directly traceable to the greei
and shortsightedness of the own
ers of property abutting on Mill
Creole, a small, stream passing
through the city. Property own
ers continued to narrow up t)ie
stream until there was not suffi
cient space for -the waters to pass
and when the unusual amount of
water suddenly deluged the city,
the littlo stream, swollen to a
mighty power, swept away im
mense buildings and tore up
heavy pavements, bridges and
trees, and blotted out the lives of
many people.
All along the routo followed by
the stream house owners were en

homes, slowly recovering from the
shock. There were many pitiful
and strange sights from that of a
beautiful home that had been
picked up by the water and
jammed between two immense
trees about two blocks away from
its original location to that of a
littlo girl who was seen searching
among the rubbish in and, about
her home and gathering up her
dolls and their clothing which she

Ten to one he is a reformer for rev

such as the young folks enjoy, or
playing cards, which maybe some
of the matrons like, or billiards, or
baseball, especially on Sunday, or
uny other enjoyment in which nor
mal, healthy human beings indulge.
The first thing such a man does is
to go to the capitol to prevent the
passage of a bill by which people
will get some enjoyment. He will
try to have things prohibited. He
is always trying to prevent some
thing. Did you ever see this kind
of. reformer trying to have a bill
passed that would enable people to
enjoy life? Never! His sole idea
is to force through the legislature
or the city council a blue law to
make other people live according
to his ideas, or to prevent the pas
sage of laws introduced by other
people who may want to live differ
ently. The world is sad enough
without losing our pleasures, There
is no place in these red-blooded
days for blue laws. The pasty
faced complexion has gone out of
style and the ruddy glow of health
tells that wo arc living the right
way. The healthy man and woman,
who loves life and the good things
ho can get from it, is a better cit
izen by far than the dyspeptic and
selfish reformer who is reforming
for a living or to make other people
as miserable as himself.
The rain stayed away Sunday
afternoon and Perrysburg defeat
ed "their hoodoo," the Clark's
Semi-Pros, in an eleven inning
game by the score of 4 to 3. It
should .have been a shutout hut
six errors by T'erryshuVg were re
sponsible for their 3 scores. The
fielding was clean but all errors
were made on wild throws.
The game was fast and exciting
and kept the fans on edge at all
times. Some real and some poor
base ball was '-played.
Both teams scored in the first
inning. The visitors secured theirs
when Gaffney reached first on an
error and went to third on wild
throws by Mayo and Canode and
Scored on a scratch hit by Murphy.
Perryshurg secured their run
when C. Reis was allowed a walk,
Hofi'master sacrificed and G. Reis
scored when P. Reis secured an in
field hit.
rerrysmirg s second run was
made in the fifth inning when
Kopp doubled and scored on Ca
node 's Texas leaguer.
Jxopp scorcu again in tne sev
enth, lie was hit by a pitched
ball and reached second on
Engle's sacrifice, and scored when
Canode connected with the sphere
for 'two bases.
The Clarks tied the score in the
eighth when LeLeur reached first
on an error. Simon hit to right
field. Harper held the ball too
long and misjudged the play and
then threw wild to first. F. Reis
recovered the ball and threw wild
to home, allowing LeLeur to score
and Simon to reach third, from
where he scored, tieing the score,
when Kramp singled. This ended
the scoring of the Clarks.
The good pitching of Engle and
a fast double play in the tenth in
ning took the life out of the vis
itors and they could do nothing in
the eleventh.
P'erryshurg came out 'in their
half and scored the winning run
with two men out and a man on
second and fir.st when Engle sent a
lino drive to right-field scoring
llonner and winning his own game.
Engle pitched a very good game
and much credit is due him, while
