"SPANISH WAR VETERANS - ORGANIZED IN
SHELBY LASY NIGHT; OFFICERS CHOSEN AND CHARTER APPLIED FOR - A
meeting was held last night in the I.O.O.F. hall at 7:30 to
organize a camp of the Spanish-American war veterans.
Chairman Fulton called the meeting to order and Rev. Hackenberg
gave the address of the evening. He gave a splendid patriotic
talk to the veterans of the Spanish war and urged them to join
this organization as a tie that would bind these men of former
common trials and present like interests together. The
membership fee was fixed at $1.00 and the dues at $2.00 per
year, to be paid quarterly. The name decided upon was Shelby
Camp United Spanish War Veterans. The number will be given them
by the headquarters office when the charter is sent.
Following this officers were elected as follows: Commander, W.
J. Fulton; Senior Vice Commander, Freeman Conley; Junior Vice
Commander, Clyde Conley; Officer of the Day, Joseph Wert;
Officer of the Guard, Guy Wooley; Trustee for one year, Frank
Hannrahan; Trustee for two years, Charles McGregor; Trustee for
three years, Fred Stiles. The following officers were
appointed by the Commander: Adjutant, Charles McGregor;
Quartermaster, Herb Beth; Chaplain, J. C. Prewitt; Historian,
Guy Frankfather; Sergeant Major, Frank Bender; Quartermaster
Sergeant, Sam Moffatt; Color Sergeants, S. L. Sellers and
William Karg; Musician, Charles Lannert. A committee
composed of the following was appointed to arrange for the
institution of the camp: Clyde Conley, Chas. McGregor and Guy
Wooley. It was decided that the camp meet the third
Tuesday in each month. Here are the charter members of the
Shelby Camp U. S. W. V.; W. J. Fulton, F. E. Conley, Guy
Frankfather, Clyde Conley, Fred Stiles, Chas. McGregor, Guy
Wooley, E. L. Eckis, J. E. Wert, S. L. Sellers, Frank Hannrahan,

made an honorary member of the camp, he being on the point of
death and unable to attend the meeting but signified his
willingness to enter as a member. At 10:30 o'clock lunch
was served and the meeting adjourned until the third Tuesday in
next month. The entire minutes and charter application
will be sent to A. F. Rupnow, the Department Commander in
Cleveland who will be here at the next meeting to muster the
local camp into the organization. Now that the Spanish War
Veterans are organized in Shelby a new military remnant is
formed and another movement for better government and better
laws. It has taken Shelby Spanish War Veterans a long time to
get together on this subject and now that they are organized a
few of them will have to be mustered out of the camps they
formerly belonged to before they are recognized as a member of
the Shelby camp. The local camp expects to increase their
membership to over 30 within two meetings."

"FRED HOLLENBAUGH SHOT IN THE FOOT
BY A RIFLE BALL LAST SATURDAY - Fred Hollenbaugh, the son of
Henry Hollenbaugh of North Broadway, and aged about 16 years, is
at home with a serious wound to his foot. Last Saturday he and
a brother went hunting. In the woods they met a youngman whom
they did not know. The young man had a rifle. The three boys
sat down on a log and were talking about their prowess as dead
shots. The young man with the rifle after telling how good he
could shoot aimed at a piece of a stick and was about to fire at
it. As he pulled the trigger he closed his eyes and the gun was
pulled out of its true aim at the mark. It pointed at the foot
of Fred Hollenbaugh and was discharged in this position. The
bullet was only a .22 short, but it had sufficient power behind
it to bury it in the flesh between the third and fourth toes.
Fred managed to walk back to town and Dr. Love was summoned and
extracted the bullet. It has made a sore foot for the young
man, but barring blood poison or tetanus, he will be able to get
around in a few days and to go to work a short time later."

"CONTINUED ILL HEALTH - CAUSED FRANK
L. HOLLENBAUGH TO ATTEMPT TO END HIS LIFE THIS MORNING - Frank
L. Hollenbaugh, aged 66 years, living on the Shelby-Plymouth
road just north of Marsh Run shot himself this morning about 7
o'clock. While Mrs. Hollenbaugh was at the barn he secured a
revolver and stepping in front of a mirror in the living room he
placed the muzzle on the revolver to his temple and pulled the
trigger. The bullet entered his head at the temple and came out
above the eye.
He fell to the floor and his
daughter who was in an adjoining room hearing the report ran to
the living room. Seeing her father on the floor with the gun in
his hand she realized what had happened and ran to the barn for
her mother.
When Mrs. Hollenbaugh entered the
room Frank was still conscious and told her not to bother about
taking him to the hospital. The Sutter invalid coach was
quickly summoned and the injured man was in the hospital
receiving attention with half an hour after the accident. The
bullet was found on the floor of the living room having past
through his head.
At the hospital he is conscious only
a part of the time and there is not a great deal of hope for his
recovery.
Mr. Hollenbaugh has lived in and
around Shelby practically all his life and was a highly
respected citizen with a wide circle of friends and
acquaintances. His rash act is due to ill health and being
despondent over his condition. He has been sick since last fall
and was at the hospial several weeks for treatment. He did not
improve as he hoped and the work on the farm caused him to
worry. His continued ill health and worry caused him to take
this rash step to end it all.
Mr. Hollenbaugh is a member of the
Shelby Lodge No. 350 F. & A.M., and served the local lodge as
Worshipful Master for several terms. He had many staunch friends
in Shelby who realize that his physical condition brought about
his attempt to take his life."

"LANDED IN JAIL - While on her way
home from Shiloh Tuesday morning about 9 o'clock, Rose White,
the 15-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. N. White, a
prominent farmer living about a mile and a half south of the
village, was accosted by a tramp who made an indecent exposure
of his person and was about to make a criminal assault but was
frightened off. The girl ran home and notified her parents, who
telephoned to Shiloh. The fellow had gone towards town and on
arrival there was arrested by Marshal Dickerson. He was
identified by the girl and at first claimed innocence but later
changed his plea to guilty. Squire Pittenger bound him over to
the grand jury and the marshal took him to Mansfield the same
afternoon. The fellow gave his name as Charles Morgan."

"THE AUTOMOBILE - FACTORY WILL
DOUBLE ITS CAPACITY AT ONCE - The demand for the Darling
automobiles manufactured by the Beardsley & Hubbs company, has
been so great, that the company have concluded they would be
justified in enlarging their capacity from 2 or 3 per week to 6
per week. This will necessitate more room and an increase of
the force from 40 men to 150. Our Shelby men have promptly
taken enough stock to guarantee the enterprise plenty of cash to
swing the business and everything looks exceedingly favorable
for a big winter's work. The factories of Shelby without
exception are all very busy. Orders are plenty and if the coal
strike does not compel a shut down, the winter of 1902-03 will
be one eminently satisfactory to all our enterprises."
