FOItTY-FQIJRTH YEAR NO. 24 4= GEDARVILEiE, OH IQ FRIDAY , JUNE 10, 1921 555* PRICE, |1.50 A YEAR TEN TEAR OLDBOYKILLS EIGHTYEAR OLDBROTHER i SHERIFF FUNDERBURG MAKES ' ANOTHER BIG HAUL ON BOOZE. James Blangy. James Blangy, aged 10, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Blangy, shot, and killed his eight-year -old brother, Vir­ gil, at their home <m what was the MeElroy farm near this place that is now owned by Andrew Bros.; about nine o'clock Tuesday morning; The shooting followed a quarrel be­ tween the two as “Jimmy” was going fishing and did not want his younger brother to go along. The father was at wfcrk ahd the mother had started to town on an errand. The bullet was from an old array CoRrantTi t entered the boy's neck cut­ ting off the windpipe. “Jimmy” see- ting what had been done ran after his mother and Dr. M, L Marsh was cal­ led but the boy was dead, having died in a, few minutes no doubt after the shooting. Constable Charles Turner and Mag­ istrate Andrew Jackson-made an in­ vestigation and notified Sheriff Fun­ derburg. While the boy -admitted shooting his brother he appearantly did not realize his awful crime. Under the laws in this state such, cases fall to the Juvenile Court and “ Jimmy” has been placed under the care of Sheriff Funderburg and is a boarder at the residence rather than a prisioner for a criminal act. The little fellow is a victim of unfortunate circumstances and -although coming from a .home where ho has received little or no. training he conducts him­ self in a very commendnbler manner about the Sheriff's residence. The Sheriff by his good nature and warm­ ness of heart has won the confidence of the boy who already looks to him for protection from any harm. ' There are six remaining children in the family and due to the inability of the parents to provide sufficiently the township trustees have frequently granted help. The children of school age have not bean in school as much as they should and of course lack the (discipline that is due them. Last .win­ ter it .was necessary for the school authorities to keep the children out of school owing to their condition as there was great danger in spreading a contagious plagqe. Coroner R. L. Haines, holds that death was due to severinfa the wind­ pipe following a petty altercation. Prosecutor J. Kenneth Williamson takes the proper view when he has announced that the boy will not be tried oh 3 charge o f murder^ likely that the boy will be .taken be­ fore Judge Marshall and sent to the Industrial School at Lancaster. Here; he will receive schooling and also be taught discipline and an industrial trade,. It has also been, suggested, that he be sent before the State Board of Charities for an examination as to his mentality. At Knox,' Ind., last week a jury disagreed on a similar case when Ce­ cil Burkett, 11, was tried on a charge of killing his playmate, Benny Slavin. Indiana has no juvenile, courts to handle such cases. The funeral o f little Virgil \yas held Thursday afternoon from the home and burial was made possible at Massies, Creek cemetery through the kindness of neighbors and friends who contributed to the cause. Rev. W. P. Hnrriman had charge of the ser­ vices. ' Little “Jimmy" attended the fun­ eral in company with {Sheriff Funder­ burg and will be taken to- Columbus to day for a mental examination be- 1fore any court action is taken. „ | The Herald is under obligations to the Springfield Daily Sun for the likeness of little “Jimmy” which was taken by a staff photographer at the Sheriff’s office. ROAD LAW APPROVED. Gov. Davis on Tuesday signed the irke road law that was passed by e last legislature. The object -of, the sv is to protect the roads from avy truckh when the roads are soft. >wer is centered with the county mmissiorters to protect all roads. ic limit on weight is ten tons at y time which must include truck d the load.

I nrr_ There was an open meeting of The JCedarville Community Club last Fri­ day night in the opera house to hear a discussion of the possibilities and prospects of The Abel Magnesia Com­ pany that is to take over the Cedar­ ville Lime Go. on the 20th of this month. Mr. Abel is one of the engineers of the Miller Rubber Co. and has had much experience in this line. He al­ so designed and erected the magnes­ ia plant at Mt. Joy,Pa. There are only six such plants in the country and about 000,000 pounds of this product is used every month in Akron alone in the manufacture of rubber, The company set aside a "block of stock amounting to $25,000 and local people are given a chance to get in that way. The sale of the Stock has been approved by the state securities department. It is desired- to have a- bout three or four directors and the treasurer here. The other stock is being sold by a brokerage company. Mr. Abel gave a very interesting talk of the proposed new structures, the high per centage of magnesia in the rock here, how is was produced and the earnings o f other companies. Cedarville being located dose to Ak­ ron was a great advantage over the Pennsylvania plants. A number of citizens have signed up for some of the stock. President W. L. Clemans of The Community Club presided. For Sale! Decker Grand'. Square piano. Rhone No. fl.1« Lincoln Funderburg, the best of­ ficial in that capacity in any Ohio county, made a raid Thursday on the blacksmithshop o f Mike Metzer, an Austrian, living at Zimmerman, this county. . , The smell of corn liquor and the loud noise .of drunks bjts been plain jn' that section fdr some time. The raid was carefully planned and the Sheriff and his force took into their possession a copper still, 3 gallon of corn whiskey, 4 cases of home made brew, 2 barrel that had a small quan­ tity of wine, 10 quart bottles of wine. Metzer was placed under arrest and taken before Squire Jones and fined $500 and costs. Being unable to pay the fine he was -gent to the Dayton workhouse. Sheriff Funderburg has been doing wonderful work in enforcing tim pro­ hibition laws as* well *as others. His appearance, in any community where there are law breakers causes more or less commotion. Last Thursday Mr, Funderburg had business in the eastern part of the county and passed through here. His appearance must have caused some prohibition violator to get uneasy for that night some one emptied a tub of mash in the creek about the upper bridge. As the mash floated down through town the odor was very no- ticable. ITWENTY-FIFTH COMjMEN- . CEMENT OF COLLEGE. -------- , 4 g at the cealaureate ing of the bbath even- C. M. TRAINING CAMP.

T. & I, announces that all employees on that road will be paid - a minimun wage o f six dollars, making them on par with employees in the factory.

Marshall must have have abondened his race for the In­ ternal Revenue Collectorahip of this, the Cincinnati District. It iS reoprted now that the Chairman is willing to take anything loose from the deputy- ship, clerkship' . or head janitorship, to get on the. government pay roll. At one time Marshall paraded a- bout with the Internal Revenue jo b in his pocket. He had endorsements he said from Senator ,Willis, ’ Con­ gressman Fess and others. All there was left to do was to take the job and draw the pay. But something happeried—no office nor no pay was in sight until President j Harding made the appointment—which was not done—not. to managers of Wood campaigns. The fact is that some of the* coun­ ties that endorsed Marshall withdrew their endorsement when it was found but that he was not a Harding man. Charles Dean of Cincinnati will get the appointment for collectorahip and we are informed that-he will have a straight political endorsement. It Will be remembered that Senator Willis issued a statement about loyal committees, and Congressman Fess wanted the Harding Club continued in the comity as a wbrlring organization.
