CUT OFF HIS HEAD.
A MassillOn Man Meets With Fear
tul Accident Sunday Evening,

A warning comes from some part of the
country every day showing the danger of
walking on railroad tracks. The latest
person to meet a horrible death by being
run over by the cars is Isaac Weller OF
Massillon.
Sunday evening Weller was walking
along the =. Ft. w. q G, railroad near the
rolling mill in Massillon when train came
dashing along. The unfortunate man did
not see the train, or if he did was unable
to get out of the way. He was thrown di-
rectly under the wheels, the entire train
passing over him. When picked up il was
found that his head had been entirely sew.
cred from his body and his arms and one
leg cleanly amputated by the wheels of
the heavy engine and coaches.
Weher was married man and leaves a
wife and four children. The children are
all young. OF late Weller, who was la
boring man, had been drinking and it is
stated that he was intoxicated at the time
he was killed, which would account for his
being unable TO get out of the way of the
oncoming train. His family are left in
destitute circumstances.
Coroner Openhimer went to Massillon
Sunday night and held an inquest.

The --latest Scientific Treatment to be-
Made in this County.
An Institution Founded at Alliance TO
Relieve Victims of the Opium and
Liquor Habits from Their Depraved Ap.
peutes.

! The past few years have been exceed
| ingly prolific of experiment and research
in the scientific and medical world, rela-
| tive to the cure OF the liquor and opium
habits. The alarming increase of drunk
enness, with its attendant physical and
moral degeneration, and the utter ina
bility OF millions to throw of the bondage
of appetite which is rendering their lives
| one of helplessness and misery, has ap
| pealed 60 the men of science, and efforts
| have been put forth for their relief. Many
of the most prominent physicians of the
world have been stimulated to action
and numerous experiments more or less
successful in their reSults have been the
outcome of their endeavors.
One of the most successful, perhaps,
| has been DR.. o. j. Gronendyke, formerly
| of New Castle, Indiana. For two years
| he has been operating upon those who
have become enslaved by alcohol and OPT.
um, and II is claimed with remarkable re.
suits in the way of cures. The modus OPP
| erandi of his treatment is along the same
line as that of DIR. Keely, and consists oil
hypodermic injections into the patient,
which induce within him an abhorrence
for all alcoholic liquors, and in the course
of few weeks effects total cure.
Stark county is not behind in the mat
ter OF taking advantage Of those
truths demonstrated by investigation
and an institute for the employment OF
DR.. Gronenbyke's method for the freeing
OF the victims of rum and opium from
their slavery has been established at Al
lance. The institution will be known as
the Silver Ash Institute and the prepara-
tory steps for its establishment were taken
yesterday. The officers of the project are
president, G. e. Wharton; secretary and
treasurer, j. J. Ashenhurst late candidate
for governor, of the Prohibition party,
resident physician DR.. p. j. Callahan con-
sulting physician, DR.. o. j. Gronendyke.
The institute will be opened at Alliance
next Thursday and will be ready for
patients the latter part of the week. DR..
Callahan of Alliance will have the patients
under his special charge and will admin.
ister the treatment. Offices have been
secured in the post office building. This
is the first institution of the kind in this
state and the results of the efforts to re-
lieve those who wish TO be freed from the
clamoring of a depraved appetite will be
watched with interest.
A Areporter saw Mr.. Ashenhurst, secre-
tary and treasurer of the institution, this
morning. He expressed his confidence in
of those who would be relieved of a desire
for drink and he bad the records to show
how the plan had been universally sue
cessful In its results in cases heretofore
treated. He said the chemical compound
was injected into the patients four times a
day and the history of previous cases was
that after about four days they began to
experience a loathing for all liquors or
opiates, and thatat the end of about three
weeks an entire cure of the habit was
effected.

SOCIETY SENSATION.
A Canton Business Man Makes Very
ii Grave Charges
AtNinst His Charming and Accomplished
Mfe-A Separation the Result'-Partic-
ul,rs of the Case.

Fou years ago Miss Fsnnie Newton
went u Nottingham Convent to complete
her education. Her parents are estimable
people md she was a lovelyand charming
girl, While che was there Mr.. Ed. j..
Brennan> now of the plumting establish
ment of Myers & Bremen, was doing
some plumbing work in the building.
The school room was on ths opposite side
OF the hall from where the plumber was
working, and when she came out of the
room, he attempted to engage her in con-
versation. She would othave anything
to do with him. The job II Nottingham
engaged Mr.. Brennan's time for quite a
while and in the meantime they became
acquainted.
The acquaintance ripend into love and
they were finally married, aking up their
residence in Cleveland. II is stated that
before they moved TO Canon three years
ago, they had some domeitic unpleasant
ness but the affair was fix,d up. A child
was born to them, but tbi little. stranger
died four months ago. II is stated that
husband and wife would have parted
sooner but for the presense in the house,
hold OF the child.
They lived in East Fifth street
but later moved TO No. SO West Third
street, having engaged a suite OF
rooms from Miss Bartlett. Since that time
Mr.. and Mrs. Brennan hlve not gotten
along as well as usual ard MIR. Brennan
states that he delegated his brother to
keep watch on her and claims that she
has met men at other ciths than Canton.
This charge the wife emrhatically denied,
but 1t was decided that ttey should sepa-
rate. Mrs. Brennan has therefore left the
city. Two of the young men mentioned
in the case are Ed, Lawhead and Frank
Baker. 1t has been stated that Mr.. Baker
is connected with the Gibuey.Gordon the
atrical company, but such is not the case.
Mr.. Lawhead it is claimed, is cousin of
Mrs. Brennan and their relations have
been merely of friendly nature. Mrs.
Brennan is a handsome little woman,
graceful and pretty to see, and has nany
friends. Mr.. Brennan is prominent )us-
mess man. He was not in the city ibis
morning but is expected back this after
noon. Mrs. Brennan is visiting with rel
atives who do not live in Canton. A suit
for divorce will likely be the ending of the
domestic drama.
Those in position to know state that
Mrs. Brennan is not entirely to blame for
the trouble, and that her husband has been
guilty of certain acts which would tend to
make her Indifferent as toh her conduct to-
wards him. The reputation of Mrs. Bren-
nan has always been of the best, and her
friends will regret the unfortunate affair,

THE GREAT MODERN POETS.

Referring to the engagement Decem,

Sir Edwin Arnold, the great English
Oriental poet, author of "The Light OF
Asia" "The Light of the World" and

lightful. He is handsome fellow,

full in manner. He visited the good,
gray poet, Walt Whitman, the other
day. Their meeting was affecting, as
they are the warmeSt of friends, and
Sir Edwin regards Whitman as the
greatest poet the New World has ever
produced, except Emerson. Among
those present at the meeting was John
Russell Young, who says the two great
poets formed a picture such as is not
often seen.

That Little Tickling

In your throat, which makes you cough
once in while and keeps you constantly
clearing your throat, arises from catarrh,
and as catarrh is a constitutional disease
the ordinary cough medicines all fail to
hit the spot. What you need is a consti-
tutional remedy like Hoods Sarsaparilla.
Many people who have taken this medi-
cine for scrofula, dyspepsia, loss of appe-
tite, and other troubles, have been sur
prised that it should cure this troublesome
cough. But to know the actual cause Of
the cough is TO solve the mystery. Many
cases OF consumption can be traced back
to the neglect of some such slight eifec-
ton as this. Consumption can be con-
trolled in it's early stages, and the effect Of
Hoods Sarsaparllla in purifying the blood,
building up the general health, and ex
pelling the scrofulous taint which 10 the
cause of catarrh and consumption, has re-
stored 10 perfect health many persons on
whom this dreaded disease seemed to have
a firm hold,

Washington Correspondence Plain Dealer.

Washington Correspondence Plain Dealer.
Roger Q. Mills is one of the Democratic
leaders of the next House who believes
that tariff bill must be framed upon
which the Democrats can go to the country
in the presidential contest next fall as the
embodiment of the Democratic doctrine.
I'VE must pass tariff bill," said Mr..
Mills to me yesterday. "If we are 10 at
tack an army and win victory it will not
suffice to drive in the pickets and capture
baggage train. Guerrilla warfare will
not do. We must get out in the open,
form a line of battle and fight. The man
ly and courageous thing to do is for the
Democrats OF the next House to frame q
tariff bill and show the country what we
would enact into law if we held the SEN
ate and Presidency"
"What is your idea of the hill TO be con-
structed? Will it be built Oh .ue lines of
the Mills bill?"
~ for one would not be willing to stand
on the Mills bill, - replied Mr., Mills. 1--WE
have progressed since then. The theory
on which the next tariif bill ought to be
framed, in my opinion, is the doctrine OF
a revenue tariff. 1t ought to be based on
ad Valorem and not specific values, 1t Is
impossible for any Ways and Means COM
mittee TO master all the details OF tho var
ious industries of this country. The data
would necessarily be furnished by
the men who are interested and 1t
would not be human nature II these
men should come to us and tell us where
their profits could be scaled down.
Such bill would be framed in the
interest of the protected industries, Our
bill must be comprehensive. IL must be
framed in the interest of the people. In
a general way all articles must be divided
into two classes-those which go on the
free list and those which go oD the dutia-
BILE list. The rule, speaking generally,
would be the amount OF importa-
tions. For instance, here 10 an ar
ticle on which there is duty of 10 per
cent. The amount Of importations last
year were worth only 500. The revenue,
therefore, is insignitlcant-the protection
nothing. The duty and the increased
cost are simply charged up to the consum'
er. Put that article on the free list. Here
is another article, dutiable at 20 per cent.
of which an amount equal to 5000
was imported last year. Here also the
revenue is insignificant. Cut the duty in
half, stimulate importations, stimulate
the home industry, and as soon as the
home industry can stand on its own bot
tom remove the duty entirely. In suck,G
scheme of course raw materials must go
on the free list, hides, sagar, rice, wool,
etc. The revenue from such "a tariff
would 90 into the United States treasury,
not into the pockets of private indvidu-
