WILLIAM HAssoLDr DEAD.
One Of Canton's German Pioneers PasseI
t Peacefully Away.

One Of Canton's German Pioneers Passes
Peacefully Away.
William Hassoldt, an old and respect.
able citizen of this city, died this morn
ing at 3 o'clock at his residence, No. 157
South Market street. About a year ago
Mr.. Hassoldt discovered that there was
something wrong with his upper jaw.
Upon an examination by the physicians
it was found to be carcinoma of the up
per jaw bone and orbit. 1t was a good
deal of an annoyance to him, but he
did not suffer from any pain physically.
Last October he resolved to go to Gin
cinnati and have an operation per-
formed. 1t did not prove successful
however, for M. Hassoldt again went
to Cincinnati to have a second opera
ton performed. He came home after
wards expecting that the operation.
would end the disease, but as in the
first case, it proved failure. 1t con-
tinued to grow worse until death
claimed him as its own. The funeral
will take place on Thursday afternoon
at 2:30 o'clock, and he will be inferred
at West Lawn cemetery. Mr.. HassOldt
requested shortly before his death that
he be buried according to Masonic
rites. The Masons will therefore turn
out in a body and attend the funeral.
William Hassoldt was born in Hesse
Darmstadt, Germany, April 21, 1922,
and was therefore just two days past
66 years of age. He emigrated to this
country in 1S48, coming direct to Stark
county. He located on farm about
six miles south of Canton, where he
lived for eight years. He then moved
to this city, and has resided here ever
since. In 1883 he built large business
block on South Market street and called
it the "Hassoldt Block" He was one
of the charter members of Mannheim
Lodge No. 408, 1. o. o. f., and was a
member of Canton Lodge No. 80, f. &
A.. NJ. He also belonged to the Ger.
man Pioneer Verrein, and was mem.
Der of the Concordia Singing Society
He was the father of William L. Hass.
oldt, and the father-in-law of Thomas
r. Keefer, Frank Jay, Thomas TOnneI
and Edmund GrOetzinger, all of whom
live in this city.

will permit.

"PREMATURE."
That's What Manager Townsend Says of
the Extension Project.

That's What Manager Townsend Says of
the Extension Project.
Saturdays Massillon Independent
says: upon different occasions the
Independent, each time quoting its
authority, has given particulars as to a
possible extension of the G. L. & w.
railroad eastward to New Lisbon, there
connecting with the Pittsburg &
Marion, and forming new trunk line,
over which through trains would be
run from Pittsburg to Chicago. 1t was
brilliant scheme and quite plausible.
But this paper preferred bottom facts,
so it sought the one who was credited
with having conceived the enterprise
Oscar Townsend, general manager of
the G. L. & w. Mr.. Townsend says:
If all that has recently appeared in the
papers as emanating from authority,
the authority is speaking in his dreams
The stories may be regarded as prema-
ture, wild cat and green Thus endeth
the G. L. & W. grand trunk line from
Pittsburg to Chicago. Let Canton and
Massillon fall upon one anothers
shoulders and weep"
While this may be given as authority,
still there is no room for doubt that the
extension will ultimately be built. Per-
haps it is Mr.. Townsend's idea to do
things quietly, hence his statement. If
the proposed extension is not to be
built, why the survey of Engineer Han
lon and his corps of assistants?

remnorarv Injunction.

A novel legal proceeding was insti-
tuted yesterday by the firm of Elbel &
Co., the Canton malleable iron manu-
facturers, and the first of the sort in the
county. Mention has before been made
of the strike of their moulders, which has
not yet been terminated. They claim
that these men, who number about
%, have since annoyed them in various
ways, such as making threats and en-
deavoring to influence their other en-
ployes. They therefore made applica-
ton before Judge Pease, in this city,
yesterday, for an injunction to prevent
the strikers from continuing this
course, and the application was
granted

Secretary Hartzell's Report.

Secretary Hartzell's report of the
Sewer Commission, which was omitted
from yesterdays paper, was as follows:
He stated that the plans contemplate a
brick sewer feet inches by 2 feet 2
inches from the disposal ground, south
of the city, to Allen street, and a pipe
sewer 20 inches in diameter from that
point to Douglas street, and from thence
through Walnut street to North street
15x12 inch pipe. He also stated that
laterals could be constructed at the
same time. The main sewer will not
be ready until October, and the
flow of sewerage for the first
six months would be so small
that it could he emptied into
the creek without any annoyance to any
one. He also stated that the Commis-
sioners thought that the City Engineer
should be sent to Kalamazoo to study
the working of sewerage.

That Explosion.

B. A. Rohn has had his Odorless
excavator repaired and is again at
work.
A gentleman remarked to DEMO
GRAFT reporter that the cause of the
explosion was undoubtedly due to gas.
Said he:
"The workmen had pumped about
three barrels of sewage into the exca-
waiting wagon, and then they suddenly
recollected that the fire box had not
been adjusted over the air vent. Now,
there was sufficient time for vast
amount of explosive gases to accumu-
late before the fire box was placed in
position-ein fact the excayator was full
of gas. Then when the fire-box was
placed over the vent, the gases ignited
and exploded. This is really the scien-
tifc theory as to the cause. Had the
fire-box been placed in position at first
the gases would have been consumed
gradually but surely. AS it was, the ex-
plosion was the natural result of bit
of carelessness."
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1888-04-26
That Extension.

From the Massillon Independent:
Quoting what Oscar Townsend said i'll
the Independent of Saturday, the Can
ton DEMOCRAT adds on its own ac-
count: "While this may be given as
authority, still there is no room for
doubt that the extension will ultimately
be built. Perhaps it is Mr.. Townsend's
idea to do things quietly, hence his
statement. If the proposed extension
is not to be built, why the survey by
Engineer Hanlon and his corps of as
sistants ?' OF course railway officials
move in a mysterious way and are not
accountable under the rules by which
ordinary men are judged, but the Inde-
pendent is inclined to believe that since
Mr.. Townsend's remarks were made
after engineer Hanlon had submitted a
report of his original examination, they
may be accepted as final. AT the same
time Mr.. Townsend has been unduly
emphatic, as it is a fact established by
Mr.. Hanlon himself that the ground
was actually gone over.

Richard Metz, of Waynesburg, and
taking therefrOm several articles, was
before the Probate Court yesterday on
a charge of insanity. An effort is be-
