ELECTRIC STREET CARS.
A Minister Talks of Matters Which VIII
Interest Cantonians.

Interest Cantonians.
Last week Rev. Charles Rhoads who
was in our city attending the Baptist Sab.
bath School Institute, and who lives at
Granville, Otio, got to talking about the
electric street railroad running from New
ark to Granville; he said that up to last
year, hack line of one trip a day be-
tween the two towns was reather meager-
ly patronized, but now that the electric
cars are running they make eight trips a
day each way, mostly with two cars and a
baggage trail, and they are almost con.
stantiy full. He said the travel had in
creased ten fold in one year and no one
can tell where the travel comes from
The actual distance between the two
towns is six miles, but the way the cars
run the distance is eight miles, and the
single fare is Is cents, or round trip
ticket for 25 cents. Here is good pointer
as TO what may be expected when an
electric car line is established between
Canton and Massillon. MIR. Rhoads
further said that both towns were now
unanimous in praise of such a line and that
ii was found to be of great benefit to all
parties. At first before the line was com.
pleted, there were few croakers that
predicted disastrous results, but they are
all quiet now, and the new road is pro-
nounCed a success.

THE INQUEST.
Coroner openhimer Investigating tht
Death of Ulysses Stauffer.

The body of Ulysses Stauffer, who died
in the city prison under peculiar circum.
stances Saturday, was shipped to Mt
Eaton, Wayne county, this morning.
Samuel Willard, a brother.in-law of the
deceased, came TO this city Saturday and
made the necessary arrangements for re-
moving the body.
Coroner Openhimer took testimony in
the case this morning. DR.. Biechele and
Godleib Schweiizar, the saloon-keeppr al
the corner of South Cherry and East
Eighth streets, gave testimony. Schweit
Ger was of the opinion, as stated in sat.
urday's News. DEMOCRAT. that there was
another man with Staulfer just before
he fell from the step ladder and down
stairs, but it is probable that Stauffer was
talking to himself. This supposition is
made probable by DR.. Biechele's showing
his condition when he first visited him al
the city prison. Stauffer was well known
here and had many friends who mourn
his intimely death.

In this other gown Redfern has given a
little more range to his fancy and has
produced something rather more elabor-
ate. Here the material is cream colored
serge, the skirt cut in turrets over a fac
ing of indigo blue and gold anchors, OF
winch one appears on each cuff. A blue
and white girdle with gilt anchor pend
ants is passed twice about the waist and
knots in front of the left hip. The latest
in yachting shoes is also an idea from the
same firm, and consists of natty tan
leather shoes, painted artistically with the
nag or the yacht they sail in. This is ex-
ceedingly pretty, too, II worn by a lady
who goes to christen a ship, as she will
thereby compliment the crew and draw
attention to her own dainty bottiness,
Girls whose feet are the proverbial beetle
crushers are however warned to steer
clear OF these artistic luxuries. Our tour
lists who visit the old mother island talk a
great deal OF the beauties of Scotland, the
immensity of London, and the soul
pick me up charms of Wales-not Albert
EdWard-aDd take run over to the land
OF the shamrock to see Killarney. But
wonder how many take the trouble TO
visit queer, tshy, old Yarmouth, and the
beautiful Norfolk Broads, where yachting
and hunting are carried on SO vigorously.
The beautiful scenery there is essentially
English, from the banks OF sedge and
willow, where placid looking cows are
padding knee-deep in the water, and de-
stroying the blooms of snowy lillies, and
the wild duck flies off with little startled
cry, as the boat draws near, to the bright
meadows, sun fiecked with golden cow
slips and fragrant with the breath of new
mown hay. And then gliding out into
some broader water, where the shore
fades from the sight, the yachts leave the
fresh water Broads far behind, ana sail
out to the haunt of the succulent bloater,
and toothsome herring where the break
ers are always tossing and NAL de mer
reigns omnipotent. There is always a
fleet of yachts anchored before Lowestoft,
for Britons are every year learning more
and more the fact, that here lies one of
the best yachting stations in the world.

Tired Feeling.

exhaustion. The blood, laden with impurities
which have been accumulating for months,
moves sluggishly through the veins, the mind
fails to think quickly, and the body is still
