Active participation in the efforts of "the Wayne County Historical Society to celebrate the state centenary is promised by the "Wayne County old Trails Association in a statement issued today": . "The Wayne Coupty Old Trails Road association, composed of the different township associations, is undoubtedly the best workable organization this county has ever had. , Its end will continue to be of great value to the country, not only in the matter of promoting the claims of the old National road, but in all things pertaining to the social, moral, material and personal welfare of the citizens of township and county. Great good will come to individuals nd communities who strive together in an unselfish and non-partisan way tor the common welfare. In order to make clear all the purposes of this organization, it is well to re-state Article 2, Section 1 of the constitution: '"The object of this association is the advancement of the cause of the National Old Trail road as well as roads in general, and shall include such work as the collection and distribution of all data and information of interest thereto; aiding the establishment, betterment and interest, and the maintenance of roads in the township, encouraging wise legislation, assisting in the creation and development of a permanent road sentiment, binding county and city together through lectures, joint meetings and in every way increasing the good fellowship that should exist between country and city, co-operating and assisting the county and state, in the betterment of roads.' "As the old National road is one of ihe greatest monuments that not only Wayne county possesses, but the state a well, and around which gathers a great deal of the early history of the state, we believe this- organization fchculd be very active in assisting the county and state in arousing a proper spirit of enthusiasm among her citizens.

RENNENKAW

ill CZAR PUNISHES BERLIN, July 19. According to the newspaper Tageblatt, the Russian General Rennenkampf, who led the Muscovites in the defeat at Tannenberg, has been for some time a prisoner in the fort of St. Peter and St. Paul in Petrograd, and is suffering great hardship there. - This information has been brought to Berlin by Herr Paul Schelnpflug. musical director of the Bluthner orchestra of Berlin. Herr Schelnpflug states that he went to Russia in June, 1914, to conduct a series of symphony concerts in Riga. - He was courteously received, he says, and the concerts were enthusiastically attended. However, in July a coldness appeared to develop and when the war was declared with such suddenness he and the members of his orchestra were made prisoners. Through the kindness of some of his friends in Riga, Herr Schelnpflug received a passport. When he reached Petrograd the passport was confiscated and he was placed in the city prison. He was incarcerated for "two weeks with .Chinese Tartars, "and f Russians, and he says, he was not permitted to communicate with the outside world. Then he, with other Germans, was transported to Wologda, in the Ural mountains. The journey oyer the steppes, he says, was a nightmare. , Without money or food, the sufferings of the FUND REACHES $540 Collections taken yesterday at the Second - English , Lutheran church brought the amount f money in the Jehoiada chest up to approximately $540. The collection Sunday was $25. A congregational meeting ratified the recommendation of the building committee that a new beating plant be installed and that a basement 30x40 feet be placed under the building. The improvement will be paid for from the funds in the Jehoiada chest. fled for the task of gathering together and preparing the history of the important events, places and persons of the township.- ,, . - ,. . , , "The township, president .and secretary, together with as many members of the. historical -committee,- are irgently requested to meet at the Commercial club rooms on Wednesday, August 4, at 1 o'clock for a conference, preparatory to attending the meeting of the Wayne County Historical Society that meets, at , the libarry building at 2:30 the same day, that we may be prepared to ' co-operate with them in matters pertaining to the proper celebration of Indiana's centennial next year.

SUFFERS HI JAIL

FAMOUS GENERAL prisoners were intense. Made insane by 'their hardships," eighteen of' the prisoners who were members-' of his symphony orchestra, 'committed, suicide by drowning in the Volga. , The, life in Wolgda brought no end to bis sufferings. Food . was scarce, and the Russian-officials made no attempt to relieve the three thousand hungry German prisoners, he declares, but just when starvation threatened to put an end tp their misery the United States ambassador in Petrograd, "who had heard of their plight, came to their relief" with money and food. The Russian .peasants, too, took pity on their condition and smuggled food to the prisoners at night. Herr Schelnpflug states that. Fran v. Aurich, correspondent for a Berlin newspaper, was suspected of being a spy. Although married to a Russian she was at once shot. , ' General Rennenkampf, who was defeated by Field Marshal von Hihdenbivrg at Tannenburg, was arrested on his return to Petrograd and placed In solitary confinement in the famous fortress, Herr Scbeinpflug declares, and adds that little mercy is shown to the defeated general, and he is suffering untold hardship. Herr Schelnpflug returned to Germany after a trying trip of more than two weeks by way of Sweden. Pastors Cause Police Trouble .Who would ever have thought that the police wquld ever have trouble with ministers? Yet, George Staubach, patrolman, declares that some of them are constantly violating the law. The other day a clergyman who was unconcernedly cutting across the corner of Eighth and Main where Staubach presides as traffic patrolman was hailed by the officer. "Say, parson, if you don't quit cutting this corner, I'll have to arrest you." - "Say, don't do it today," pleaded the minister, Rev. Harry Harman, "our Sunday school is having a picnic and I want to attend." Rev. Conrad Huber has also received reprimands from Staubach. Mr. Huber in response instructed Patrolman and other members of the der partment to be equally vigilant in other work of the department.
