The accident to Mr.. Samuel ShankeL-
ton, car inspector for the COnnOtton in
this city, was briefly mentioned in yes
terday's DEMOCRAT. ShankletOn was
engaged in the ConnOtton round house
when the accident occurred, about IL
o'clock Tuesday morning. 1t is GUS .
tOmary for the car inspector, when
working about car, to put signal
flag on the top to notify the shifting en- =
gine. This precautiOn ShankletOn fail
ed to observe, and while at work
prOstrate under car at
one end of line of cars, the shifter, not
knowing his position, backed up against
the opposite end of the line. The shock
moved the cars.a short distance and one
wheel passed over ShankeltOn's foot
The car was not loaded and fortunately
he escaped with badly crushed foot.
AmputatiOn is not necessary and he will
recover the use of the injured member.
The position occupied by ShankeltOn
was peTilOus one and had the shifter
continued backing he would undoubt-
edly have been killed. Immediately
after the accident ShankeltOn was taken
to his home, near the COnnOttOn trans
| fer, and DR.. johnson was called and
dressed his foot.

under the pastOrate of Rev. j. j. Leber-
man, Dec. 13, 1873. February 17th,r
1878, she was united in mar
riage to Jacob NJ. Flory,
of Canton township, with whom she
lived in most loving accord until Fri
day, the 2lst inst, when, after an illness
of about six weeks, she peacefully fell
on sleep" and entered with holy triumph
into that rest appointed for all who
await the appearing of Him who has
said, 'cOme unto me all ye that
labor ana are heavy laden and I will
give you rest" Her life had been beau
titled by all those excellencies which
rendered her the idol of her fathers
house and the perfect helpmate of her
husband; and she left to all, who were
bowed in the deepest grief at her early
death, precious legacy of personal ex-
ample and the most assuring proof
that, much as she desired to remain, to
depart would be far better;" that their
present loss would be her eternal gain

the number Of crippled children who
need attention is large, and they cannot
be properly cared for at home. For in
the first place, the doctors do not have
the proper appliances and instruments;
and in the second place, these cases
largely occur among that class of people
who are unable to pay, and man who
has all he can do for class of practice
who pay, cannot afford to devote his
time to this class of cases.
If an institution were established
they could be properly cared for and at
little more cost than to keep them at
home. 1t is true that in many cases if
they were cared for in time they would
soon cease to be burden upon the
State.
DR.. Phillips thinks that the medical
fraternity would universally give their
support. The number to be cared for
cannot receive proper attention and
care at home, and such an Institution
would not only relieve the children, but
also the members Of the fraternity who
are called upon to attend them.
Dr.. Brant says: 81 cannot give cor
rect statement as to the number of
crippled children that need attention.
There were two in my Office to-day, and
there have been more or less every
week. Evidently the number is
large, and an institution where they
could be properly cared for is necessary
in every State. 1t ought to be supported
by public funds for the reason that il
they are not cared for in time they are
thrown upon the public at some time OF
other in their life. AS city physician,
probably see more of these cases than
any other physician, and have noticed
them. They occur largely among the
poorer classes of people. The reason fol
that is, that they can not properly cart
for them when children, and they arr
allowed to go unattended until theil
trouble becomes permanent. Even i
the city were to furnish the proper ap
pliances for the number of these chill
dren that are crippled, the surround
ings at home would not be such a

New Grocery Emporium.

The satisfactory feeling of confidence
in a good seasons business for the COM
ing year is becoming more manifest
each day, by the action of business men,
who, instead of holding back their
capital, invest it in new ventures which
profit alike, themselves and the city, in
which we live. 1t is the pleasant duty
of the DEMOCRAT to notice another new
firm, which comes to the front with
groceries. Mr.. Peter j. Schwalm, well
and favorably known in this COM
munity, has occupied the spacious
west store-room in the new Schwert--
ner Block, and fitted it in the COM
pletest manner with staple and fancy
groceries. Handsome silver show cases
for candies, notions, smokers articles,
pipes, &C., grace the counters, while the
shelves are stocked with canned goods,
and the great variety of sundries appro-
pirate to the business. Manufactured
tobaccos and segars are handled at
wholesale and retail. A speciality is
made of handling fresh country pro-
duce. Oranges and lemons find place
in the windows. Goods delivered free
in any part of the city. Mr.. Rufus Betz
officiates as head salesman, and a COM.
petent one, too, as he knows the wants
of the entire city trade.
The store presents an attractive ap-
pearance, and with Mr.. Schwalm at its
head, is bound to prove an important
addition to the long list of Canton's
! hOurishing business houses.

Death of Frank Daubermann.

The death of Mr.. Frank Daubermann,
of Pike township which was chrOnicled
in the DEMOCRAT yesterday, took place
under peculiar distressing ciTcumstan-
ces. The Daubermann family consisted
of a widowed mother, Frank, younger
sister, and small brother. Frank was
the head of the family, and to him they
looked for support. His sister had been
ill with typhoid-malarial fever and was
quite weak. Thinking squirrel broth
would be strengthening and good for
her, Frank started out Wednesday af-
ternoOn with his gun in search of a
squirrel. In crossing a cOrn6eld
he stopped to speak with some
of the huskers aid rested
the stock of his gun upon the ground
with the muZzle pointing toward his
breast. While in that position by some
unknown means the gun was discharged
the load entering his breast, producing
almost instantaneous death. Imagine
the feelings of the loving mother and
invalid sister, when the son and broth
er, who but a few moments before had
left the house the picture of health and
strength, was brought home lifeless,
bloody corpse.
The funeral services were conducted
by Rev. A. H. Feldmann of this city in
the Melsheimer church in Pike town
ship. The services were largely attend
ed and the bereaved family have the sin
cere sympathy of the entire community

marble trade has made wonderful ad- =
vances in the past few years, and
large finely engraved finished mOnu-
ment can be purchased of Hahn Bros
for a merely nominal sum. Specimens
of their work elicit universal admira- .
tiOn and praise. They have just set up
in the city cemetery a magnificent Ma
rine granite monument for Mr.. George
Platt, deceased. 1t stands ten
feet high and is an ad--
mirable piece of workmanship
The monument consists Of two granite
bases of different sizes, the die, plinth
and cap. The whole is engraved and
finished in superior style. Another
monument in the same cemetery was
put up by Hahn Bros, for Mrs. Joseph
Painter. 1t also is fine piece of work.
In their stock they have a fine assort-
ment of monuments and head-stOnes,
and anyone about to purchase a mOnu-
ment or stone should by all means call
in and inspect their work and prices.

Thus, again has closed another annual
gathering of the teachers of Stark
county, and we believe, with good re-
suits. For seldom is more enthusiasm
manifested than was during this Insti-
tute, by both instructors and the in

prOfited by the example of cheerfulness
and occasional .humOr of our worthy

with them into their respective school

into the hearts of their pupils, to soften

State Institution for Crippled Children.
The recent number of the Ohio statis-
tics abounds in interesting facts that
are we'll worthy of much consideration
and thought; but no where in all its
many tables do we find recorded the
number of crippled children in the State.
Can it be that our law makers have
heretofore considered these little suffer
ers unworthy of note? Such would
seem to be the case, and yet one cannot
help but be impressed with their num-
ber and the great burdens they are
called upon to bear.
Ancient Rome was not more devoid of
human kindness when she ordered all
such to be killed, than Ohio is when she
leaves the little sufferers unknown and
uncared for.
The subject has received so little at
tentiOn that it is almost impossible to
get information as to the number af-
flicted or even how many of them after
wards become charges upon the county
OF State. That the number is large and
that many, if taken in time, could be
helped, are facts almost past dispute.
What can be done? New York and
Indianapolis both have private institu-
tiOns where crooked limbs are made
straight, defOrmities corrected and the
child so rebuilt, as it were, that in ma
turity he is self-supporting. But pri-
vate Institution is only open to the
child of wealth, and surely Ohio can
well afford to take the first step in es-
tablishing a refuge where the infant
sufferer, though he be poorly blessed
with this worlds goods, can yet find
relief.
There is but one expression among
the doctors of the city and all favor the
cause as shown by the few expressions
we have, in limited time, been able to
gather.
DIR. A. W. Whiting has long felt the
need of such an institution, but does
not know whether the people of the
State would take upon themselves the
burden of maintaining another benevO
lent institution. He however, thinks
