A SPLENDID BUSINESS.
what the Southern Pacific Has
Done During 1883.

what the Southern Pacific Has
Done During 1883.
The year Just closing has been one o1
the most successful in the history of the
Southern Pacific system. Mainly owing
to the increase of the California traffic ii
has made an advance of about thirty per
cent. on its business for the preceding
year and has built number OF lines
which in the future will materially swell
its already regal revenue. The enlarge
ment of traffic is caused by the vast
increase of population which in steady
stream OF settlement has been
pouring into the golden State in
untold numbers during the past
twelve months. Lumber for their resi-
dences, agricultural implements with
which to Till the land, household furni-
ture, and later on the business which
increasing wealth demanded, have
caused great demand on the company's
resources, and at one time the strain
was so great that it was only with skllful
management an absolute blockade was
prevented. As it was it caused dearth
of freight cars all over the Western coun-
try, and one good result of this has been
the employment of thousands of men to
meet the wants of the occasion, new
cars having been turned out as fast as
money, labor and material could pro-
duce them. The best evidence of the
increase of business can be obtained
from the following figures just issued
from the Southern Pacific headquarters
at San Francisco, and which show the
gross business for the eleven months of
1888 ending November 80:
Earnings. Expenses.
Pacific system -. $32 10000 $20,774, 900
Atlantic system. . 1O,399 900 7,227,O00
Totals. ......... $42,569.O 900 $2s,OOO,O00
This leaves net balance for the eleven
months of $14, ,56S, 900, and if the month
of December keeps up the average, and
there is no reason why it should not, the
total receipts will show $47, 100000 and
the net profits nearly $16,OOO,0OO. A
comparison with 1887 is interesting, the
figures given being for the twelve
months of that year:

ANOTHER MOVE
Toward the Erection of a Catholic
Academy
On the Present Site of the German Catho-
lie Chapel and School House--A Building
Committee Appointed Sunday and the
Work of Canvassing For Subscriptions
to be vigorously Prosecuted.

Another step forward toward the
building of the German Catholic Acad-
envy was taken by the German Catholic
congregation Sunday. After services
a meeting was called and a building
committee appointed. This committee
consists of William Dannemiller, Steve
Wagner, Andrew Swertner, George
Condor and Julius Hug. The women,
as usual, will do much toward securing
funds for the new building and a com
mittee to have charge of the affairs
among the women has been appointed,
and consists of Mrs. Longabach, Mrs.
Ed. Dannemiller, Mrs. l.. Biechele and
Mrs. Gus Biechele.
Nothing a be done in the actual
work of building until spring, as the
church and those at the head OF the
movement desire to see their way clear
in a financial way. This they will not
be able to do until fall. 1t is the inten-
ton to build such an academy as will
be a credit to the church and to the
city. Architect Ginther, of Akron, has
furnished plans and they are now in
possession of Father Arnould. These
plans call for a magnificent building, 1t
to be three stories high, and it greatly
resembles, the architecture of the Can
ton central high school building. The
cost is placed at $4,000 but those
familiar with the work think this a too
conservative estimate and think the
church with do well If the price does
not exceed $4,000.
For this academy it will be necessary
to tear down and remove the present
chapel and two-story brick school build
ing. The long, unsightly fence, which
has heretofore been a necessity, will
| also 90, and the grounds about the
building will be graded gradually to the
| street. thus placing them in excellent
shape. The plans call for the size OF
the building to be 12O 70 feet ano
three stories high, and in the basement
will be the chapel. On the second tiool
will be four large school rooms ana on
the third floor will be a large hall, this
to he used for special exercises ano
meetings of general Importance.
Father Arnold will have the matter
of ~canvassing for subscriptions carried
forward. He intends to solicit, anC
will see each member of the Catholic
churches personally. Soliciting vii
not be confined to those of the Catholic
faith, but Protestants will be seen, i
being the intention to admit into thu
school the children of those who con
tribute, for the study OF German, thos'
in charge saying the public schools ar
defective in this, that the study OF Ger
man is not taken up until the scholar
have almost finished the school course
The study of German in the Catholi,
school is Considered so important tina
the children take it up at an early age
1t is thought that the fair to be held II
October will largely add to the building
fund. In this connection Rink Ven
dome has been purchased by the churcl
and will be torn down and the lumbe
used as scaffold on the new academy.

Additional particulars have been Sc
cured of the tragic suicide of William
Myer at Winesburg, near Beach City.
Reliable information shows that Myer
had been waiting for several years
upon Miss Eta Metz, a highly accom-
plished young lady of that place. Their
courtship ran along smoothly and their
engagement had been announced but
several weeks ago a lovers quarrel en-
sued and cast a gloom over the young
man, whose love was pronounced in
tense. The origin of the quarrel can
not be learned but it is said to have
been over some trivial matter. The
young man made frequent visits to the
house and begged the young lady to
relent and assume her former relations
with him but she was obdurate and
firmly replied each time that their en-
gagement had been severed for all time
and that no settlement could be effect
ed.
On the afternoon of the suicide young
Myer spent the time with a number of
his companions and appeared IN a
jovial mood. Toward evening he Wis
tied the Frederick hardware store and
borrowed a revolver, giving as a reason
that he wished to kill a mad dog. His
request was granted. In the evening
he called upon Miss Metz and again
begged for a settlement but she re-
mained so obstinate that he grew de-
epondent and arising with tears in his
ewes he left the room, telling her in a
Smoking voice that she would see him
alive no more. She paid no
attention to what she considered brag-
adocia and the sound of a pistol shot a
short time later did not call her to her
senses. The first realization she had of
the result of her obstinacy was the
sound of many and excited voices near
her home in the morning Pushing aJar
the shutters she peeped out and there
saw being carried into her parents home
the apparently liteless form which she
recognized as that of her former lover.
The blow was a heavy one to her and
she rushed down and threw herself
on the PROSTATE form upon the bed
but he gave no sign Of recognition and
in a few hours died from the effects OF
a shot from his own hand.
The young man was the only child OF
loving parents, who stood high in
the community in which they
resided. He was about twenty
two years of age and was an exemplary
young man. The tragic death has cast
a heavy gloom over the vicinity in
which live the boys and girls parents

The seventh annual convention of
the w. G. I. u. of Stark county in the
Industrial Hall in this city was a large
one and a majority of the unions of the
county were present. The convention
was opened by devotional exercises con-
Quoted by the president, Miss Emma L.
Goodwill. This was followed by the
report of the corresponding secretary,
giving the number of meetings held
and the amount of contributions from
six unions, Canton, Greentown, ALI
ance, Minerva, Mt. Union and MARI
boro. All the unions failed to report.
These reports showed the temperance
work in the county to be tlourlshlng
and the outlook for the coming year Is
more encouraging than ever.
The Presidents annual report was
| read. 1t gave a retrospect of the or
ganization from the organization in
Canton at the time when six unions
were living on the hopes of seeing the
second amendment carried, up to the
present day.
The address of welcome was deliver
ed by Mrs. Sarah Merideth. She spoke
in high praise of the work accomplish
ed and greeted those present in a warm
manner. She noted the increase in
temperance sentiment,and dwelt on the
great work accomplished since four
teen years ago when a little band OF
crusaders, seventy-tive in number, went
forth to battle against the liquor traffic.
She stated that more temperance meas
ures were passed upon in 1887 than in
the previous twenty years. Prohibit
ton in some form had been voted upon
in nearly every state and territories
in the Union and thirty-three states
and territories have passed laws re-
quiring scientific temperance lnstruc-
lions to be given in the public schools
The address was a fine one, 1t showed
careful preparation and was delivered
in an able manner to the large audience
of deeply interested temperance work
erS.
Mrs. Brush of Mt. Union responded
to the address of welcome and she made
a pleasing allusion to the letters VIC
T-U and showed the significance
attached to each one.

Fourteen months ago, at the solicita-

Nothing improper was thought to have

and was found to be in a delicate
condition. Upon inquiries by
