EFFECTS OF SIN ARE POINTED OUT Methodist Evangelist Gives Strong Sermon; Women Only Tonight. The certain terrible effects of sin were forcefully presented by the evangelist, Dr. Earle Naftzger. in a ! exceptionally strong sermon at the 1 revival at the Methodist church last. evening. If men persist in sin they cannot escape its awful consequences. Sin is the cause of failure in life. ‘‘The Wages of Sin is Death.” It results in the death of every good thing. But men need not die for they may be delivered from sin. In Jesus Christ and him only may all men be saved, said the evangelist. The service tonight is for women only. Dr. Naftzger's theme is, “The 1 Modern Woman, or Why Do Women' Go Wrong?" The evangelist an -| nounces a plain presentation of a' delicate subject. In view of known' facts it is a very timely theme. Knowldege is needed. The church 1 ought to be filled with women tonight. The men will spend the evening in' visitation evangelism. A large num-. ber of teams of two each will call on friends about the city in an attempt to win them to Christ and the church. The revival is rapidly nearing the close. Many, both in and out of the' church, have been missing that, which would bring blessings to them.; Take advantage of the remaining j services for your own enjoyment and: uplift and for the help you may be’ to others. o POSSE AND FOUR (Continued From Page One) police and two deputies and the partystarted for Cory at top speed in an automobile. The two posses met at the edge of an orchard adjoining Tucker's home. It was impossible to distinguish the identity of either side in the darkness. Tile mistake was not discovered until both sides had emptied their guns and started to re-load. Then the groans of the wounded revealed the mistake. •The wounded: Claude Lloyd, shot through arm and shoulder. Taken to hospital in serious condition. Tom Collins, shot through temple. Physjidlans believe his wound [will not be fatal. Joe Vandiver and Paul Wells, numerous flesh wounds from lead sprayl ed by the riot guns of the officers. All the wounded were members of the citizens' posse. Admits Assault On His Three-Year-Old Niece Van Wert. Ohio. Nov. 22. —Clarence Mullen. 23. Ridge township, was locked up in the county jail Tuesday night after he appeared in the sheriff's office and signed a confession that he attacked his three-year-old niece, Margaret Mary Mullen, also of Ridge township, last September and transmitted a venereal disease to the child. Wednesday morning Juvenile Officer .Charles Kirk filed a charge of felonious assault against .Mullen, who will be brought before Squire A. C. Gilpin at an early date for a hearing The maximum penalty on this charge is $1.(109 fine and 10 years ih tile peni tentiary. The case was brought to the attention of authorities last week when 4 the mother or the little girl, Mrs. Andrew Mullen, discovered the disease. Upon recommendations of the district nurse, the child was brought to the local hospital for treatment. Prosecuting Attorney Carl P. Dunifon and Mr. Kirk at once started an investigation which led to Mullen's confession. Mullen must await the action of the grand jury even though lie pleads guilty to the charge in ‘squire's court. !
