What Some Stark County School Teach
ers Say of Henry George.
The fact that too many teachers of
the Sub.district schools do not make
sufficient preparation for the work in
which they engage, has long since been
apparent, and so long as local directors
will employ the cheapest teacher that
can be had, this state of affairs will eX-
iSt. Many teachers are or seem to be
Indifferent about their preparation for
so noble a calling. In the history of
current events too many are altogether
inefficient to take charge of any school,
as The following will show.
At a recent county examination held
at Canton, one of the questions given
in United States history was: "Who is
Henry George? What principles does
he representa-" Here are some of the
answers ~Sz,'+N

direction of the board of directors of
the Stark county agricultural society of
said county for the purpose named in
section one, and for no other purpose
whatsoever, nor shall any part Of said
money be directed from the object
expressed herein, and the title to any
lands so purchased shall be made to

SEC. 1. This act shall take effect and
be in force from and after its passage.
This bill is S. Is. No. 1876 over again,
modified only by the sop which has
been thrown out to the people by giving
them permission to vote upon the ques-
ton Of the additional tax, and contin-
ing the operations of the bill to Stark
county. Thus the representatives of
eighty-seven other counties are to be
Modified.
Section authorizes the levy of four
tenths of a mill, which is exactly the
same as provided for in the original
and which will produce no more than
$4,000. The expenditure of this money
is to be limited to the purchase of ad-
ditiOnal land only, and as if to empha-
size the fact, that this sum is not to
cover any of the improvements which
would be indispensable, section goes
on to say that "for no other purpose
whosoever shall any part of said money
be directed from the object expressed
herein"
The friends of the bill will argue that
section providing for the vote on the
matter throws the whole responsibility
IN the public at large But it is well
known that only a small vote can be
gotten out at a spring election, and that
is not intended that the masses shall
be any better informed upon the sub
ject than is necessary.
The bill as whole is pernicions. If
passed the county has $4,000 in addi-
tional taxes in sight, with three times
that amount to hear from, and the
many who wish the grounds removed
and not enlarged are as etfectually
,ilenced as though dumb. 1t is notice
able that this party is not allowed to
express its feelings except through in
formal channels.
All who know the county's financial
situation, all who have the welfare of
the Stark county fairs at heart, and all
who on general principles believe in
the transaction of public business in an
open fairminded manner, will protest,
protest with a vigor Of thought and
of dictiOn which will teach
those who anonymously frame such
bills that in Stark county all sides must
have an equal chance.

Excitement in exas.

Great excitement has been caused in
the vicinity of Paris, Tex, by the re-
markable recovery of Mr.. j. Z. Corley,
who was so helpless he could not turn
in bed, or raise his head; everybody
said he was dying of Consumption. A
trial bottle of DR.. Kings New Discov-
cry was sent him. Finding relief, he
bought a large bottle and box of DR..
Kings New Life Pills. by the time he
had taken two boxes of Pills and two
bottles Of the Discovery, he was well
and had gained in flesh thirty six
pounds.

IN which the death of the Emperor has
sunk the German nation casts dark
shadow, not only on our own national
feeling, but far beyond, on the charac-
ter of the whole situation. Europe rec
ognized and revered the Emperor as a
faithful and powerful protector of in

est man can doubt that his majesty's
influence will live on unweakened and
unchanged, everybody feels the
gap which the disappearance of
mis- don mating personality leaves
behind. One thing can be
gathered with the greatest certainty
from the signs Of cordial sympathy in
which the Austrio- Hungarian and
English papers have We'd with each
other, and from the still more touching
attitude of Italy, That Germany does

thy from abroad will reach even greater

New YORK, March Especial. !
On Thursday of last week the aged
murderer, Oscar Beckwith, was hanged
at Hudson. A. Kinson, the hangman,
used the gallows that hung Dan Dris-
coll. After the Hudson hanging he
hacked up the implement of death and
directed it to the "Tombs, New York
City" On Tuesday it arrived at st.
Johns Park via the New York Central.
The freight charges were G.. o. d. In
calling over the freight bills
or in the course of some other
process at the freight depot
they mixed the gallows up and got the
address down "The Times, New York
City. An employe accordingly notified
that journal that the gallows marked
G. 0. ID. was waiting at the depot to be
called for. The business Office of the
Times was in a quandary for awhile.
AT length it was resolved to send the
heavy weight of the Office to st. Johns
Park and demand an explanation. 1t
is said that the heavy weight made
things hum around the depot for about
a quarter of an hour. he secured the
explanation and the gibbet is now in
the Tombs.

CATARRE-

Catarrh is often regarded by the
patient as cold In the head, and he
often expresses his astOnishment at his
remarkable tendency to contract fresh
cold; indeed he declares he is scarcely
free from cold before he takes another,
and yet he is always exceedingly careful.
1t is also matter Of surprise to him
that the cold always seems to settle in
the head and throat.
At times many of the symptoms of
Catarrh may seem to abate, and the
patient is led to hope that the disease is
about to wear off; but another class of
symptoms only appear and he learns
TO HIS HORROR
that instead of recovering from the dis
ease, it is somewhat changed in its char
acter, and has extended to the throat.
A sense of WEAKNESS is sometimes felt
in reading, speaking and singing;
hoarseness at times occurs; a sensation
of dryness Is felt in the throat,
or it appears as that some for
eign substance, as for instance hair,
obstructs the throat; there comes a
sense of langor and fatigue, breath
lessons upon a little exertiOn, short,
hacking cough, apeculiar sound in clear
ing the throat, feeling as though there
were not room enough in the chest to
breathe-thesea and other symptoms occur
after the disease has made considerable
progress. Then it is when consumptionis
about to begin its dreadful work. Up
to this time the progress of the disease
may have been slow, and the patient
may, in expressing his confident hope
that it will "wear off," declare that he
has had the Catarrh for years, and has
not seemed to become much worse, and
trusts that he win "by and by" recover;
but his delusion is the
GRAND ERROR
that has peopled our cemeteries with
consumptive forms.
No discovery or Improvement in
medical practice of late years has been
of more utility than that which is prop
erly known as the inhalation system of
cure in throat and lung diseases" In
this climate, so capriciOus and variable,
where at least one in every three persons
in the community is afflicted with some
sort Of throat or lung disease, a class Of
maladies increasing every year in fatal
ity, anything which really tends to arrest
the disease and restore the sufferer from
its rayages is surely
A BLESSING
which will be appreciated by every fam
lily throughout the country. Its results
are most gratifying and remarkable, and
have elected the very highest cOmmen-
dation from many of our best citizens.
1t conveys the remedy directly to the
parts diseased. Its effects are prompt
and permanent. Its action is always safe
and salutary, even in the most debilitated
cases. Relief is usually obtained from
the hour of using the remedies. The
treatment is both local and constitution
al and yet the cures are effected without
much medicine.
The treatment can be used at home
with perfect facility. The patient who
is engaged in business will have no oc-
casion to suspend business in order to
pursue treatment.
