ELDORADO, WEST MANCHESTER TELEPHONE COMPANY DISMISSED AND SETTLES SUITS

; EAT OX, Ohio, May 29. Five damage eults against the Eldorato & West Manchester Telephone company, In which an aggregate of $8,100 was sought, and which had been pending several years, have been compromised, settled and dismissed from common

pleas court at cost of the company. The dismissals took place Saturday. The Fuits were brought by five business men or firms or Eldorado. One suit, brought by Fred Schlientz & Son, was filed in March. 1914. and $2,500 damages was sought. A. W. S. Locke entered suit for $2,500' damages; A. J. Hamilton, $1,500; C. E. Shewmon. $1,000; Harvey Shewman. $600. The last foru actions were filed in March. 1918. The suits grew out of a disastrous sleet storm in February, 1913, whicn tore down and put out of commission lines of the company. It was several weeks before the damage was repaired. Some patrons refused to pay for rent for the time they were without telephone sen-ice. which resulted in the company removing instruments ot those refusing to pay. The action of the company in removing phones resulted in a mandamus suit being entered in common pleas

court by A. V. McClure and others, seeking a court order to compel the 'ompany to replace the phones. A temporary mandamus order was issued and upon final hearing a decision was rendered against the company. The court derision was followed by the suit of Schlientz & Son. They claimed damages on the ground thai Hie company had deprived them of a telepohne for a year or more, and their business had suffered as a result. The other four plaintiffs claimed damages on the same ground. Vote Bond Issue Klectors of Eldorado will vote on a S.i.onn bond issue at a special election Tuesday. The proposed bond issue is tor the purpose of providing funds for building cisterns to increase the water

SLEUTHING OBSOLETE; FILES AND INDEXES TRACE CROOKS TODAY

DETROIT, Mich. Old Sleuth is dead. Nick Carter has gone lrito retlrment. Sherlock Holmes is passe. Sleuthing today Is just another business, a business of files , card catalogues and system, and it may be followed by any person who has good common sense. Joseph S. Dederich gays so. And Mr. Dederich ought to know, for he Is chief of the Federal narcotic squad, operating in Detroit.

How They Conceal It The narcotic bureau, in the Pcstoffice Building, houses a collection of articles used by drug smugglers to deceive Federal officers, and these arrV cles range from a woman's "high heel" slipper to a bulky dictionary. Drugs have been smuggled into Detroit by means of these articles. Mr. Dederich says. It required real ingenuity on the part of the Federal officers to detect the drugs concealed in most of the confiscated articles. When Martin Goldberg, deputy United States marshal, took a party of Federal prisoners to Leavenworth pen

itentiary three months ago, one of the special deputies assisting him was handed a cigaret by a prisoner con-

Mr. Dererich was satisfied that the woman was a drug smuggler and he trailed her to her home in a fashionable neighborhood. He introduced himself to her as she was about to enter the house, and while he talked the dog brushed against Mr. Dederich's trouser leg. The narcotic chief felt something bulky concealed beneath the blanket. He Investigated and found packages of drugs. He arrested the woman and eventually broke up a clever ring of drug smugglers.

LINCOLN TESTED OUT NEW POWER RIFLE

The Scientific American gives a true story of Abraham Lincoln, contributed by Christopher N. Spencer, now 88 years old, who was the inventor of practically the first repeating rifle. Red tape was as much in evidence during the civil war as in the late war. Through the influence of James G. Blaine and President Lincoln the new arm which did so much

to crush the Confederacy was adopted. , Mr. Spencer's account of the test is a true contribution to both biography and history. He says: "On the way the president stopped in front of the war department and sent Robert to ask Mr. Stanton, secretary of war, to come with us. While we were waiting, Mr. Lincoln told us some good stories, and noticing that one of the pockets of his black alpaca coat was torn, he took a pin from his waistcoat and proceeded to mend it, saying laughingly, 'It seems to me that this does not look quite right for the chief magistrate of this mighty republic.' "The target was a board about six inches wide and three feet long, with a black spot painted at each end. The rifle contained six .EO-caliber, rim-fire, copper cartridges. Mr. Lincoln's first shot was to the left and five inches low, but the next shot hit the bullseye and the next four were placed close around it. " 'Now,' said Mr. Lincoln, we will see the inventor try it.' The board was reversed and I did somewhat better than the president. 'Well, he said, "you are younger than I am and have a better eye and steadier nerve.' "
