meningitis and nothing could be done to
save him.
A post mortem examination was held
Tuesday morning by DR.. Evans, assisted
by Drs. Walker, Morrow and Landor. Cor

The oldest child is eight years of age and

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 11.-Dr. Jasper
r. Monroe, editor of The Ironclad Age,
an avowed atheist of considerable no
toriety, died Of heart disease, by which
he has been disabled for several years.
He died as he had lived-a professed

its infancy, but IL indications count for
anything, the infant will be full-ledged
before very long time.
Handsome rooms in the Barber block,
in South Market street, have hseu secured
and furnished with great taste. There
are two large, airy rooms, neatly fitted up
and containing oil accommodations for
fret class club rooms. All young Demo
Gratis in the city are urged 70 Join this or.
ganizstion and perpstuate what will one
day be looked upon as one of the strong
Democratic org snikations Of the state
The club nseds ell young Democrats and
they need the club. The membership 10
already large but should be increased
materially. The juniors Of Canton OF
Democratic faith should join the club and
thus help along the great party Of which
they will soon be voting members.
The club had meeting last night and
elected the following officers: President,
]. Maser; vice president, George Gresser
recording secretary, Robert Nichols
financial secretary, D. S. Nichols. A
treasurer will be elected at the next meet.

SUIT For DAMAGES,
The Case of Philip Haubert Against Hen
rv Grimes at nj on Trial TODAY

The Case of Philip Haubert Against Hen
ry Grimes ct al on Trial Today.
Two years ago Police Officers Grimes
and Miller, assisted by another officer,
raided the dwelling house of Mrs. Ham
mer in Alliance. They there found Philip
Haubert and placed both under arrest.
The charge made against them was that
Haubert and Mrs. Grimes were living in
adultery. 1t seems that the charge was
not fully sustained 10 the satisfaction Of
the court and the prisoners were dis
charged. Some force was used in taking
the prisoners to the city prison, which
gave Haubert and Mrs. Hammer a chance
to file suit for assault. On this charge
Grimes and Miller were found guilty and
fines assessed.
Philip Haubert and Mrs. Hammer filed
separate suits for damages, and this after
noon after the case of Rex against Canton
had been disposed of, jury was sworn
and the case of Philip Haubert against
Grimes ct al is now on. The trial is pro-
life of considerable testimony of a sensa-
tional and not decidedly society character
and there are as usual in such cases many
spectators. Haubert asks damages in a
large amount.

Out Damned Spot,

AT last falls congressional election
Hon. John G.. Warwick received $3.50
votes, Major Mckinley 10,427, and Mr..
Ashenhurst 294, total Of 20,47I, This year
Mr., Campbell has 9,627, Mckinley 9,465,
and Ashenhurst 407, Seitz 37S, total of
1887.
Mr.. Warwick thus is shown TO have re-
ceived 1913 votes more than Mr.. Campbell,
but Mckinley received 9l2 votes less
than he did last fall. The total vote
is 600 short, but il is nearly ac-
counted for by rejected ballots. The pro-
hibition vote increases, the Seitz vote
probably drew more from the Democrats.
Hence Major Mckinley must account
for his own shortage of 912. Where did

a Tale of the Rain Machine.

Said Jeremy Jonathan Joseph Jones:
'SThe weather is far too dry;
So ! reckon I'll have 10 stir my bones,
And try the effect Of conclusive tones
Upon the lazy sky"
30 Jeremy Jonathan Joseph went
Away 10 the nearest town;
And there hts money was quickly spent
For queer oOntraptfons, all intent
To make the rain come down.
There were capnons and nAortars and lots
of shells,
And dynamite by the ton;
With gas balloon, and chime Of bells
And various other mystic spells
To overcloud the sun.
Tho day was fair and the sky was bright,
And never n cloud was seen,
When Jeramy Jonathan set alight
His big -. fuse, and screwed up tight
The joints OF his rain machine.
He fred q shot, and barely two,
Whom the sky began TO pale;
But tho third one brought heavy dew,
And the fouSth q hurricane or two,
Tho NTH, a storm of hail
II rained all night and another day,
And then for q year or more;
II flooded tho farm and 1t spoiled the hay,
And drowned poor Jeremy right away,
Who couldn't stop the pour.
Oh, Jeremy Jonathan Joseph Jones,
Your farm was fair TO see;
But now a lakelet covers your bones,
And from its bosom terrific moans
Are heard noeturnallee.
To check tho weather you brewed, I've
heard
All efforts were In vain;
Until tho Sureau in Washington stirred,
And stopped the food with single word.
BY just predicting rain.--Life.

CORONER opENH1MER's INQUEST

South Masslllon GOAL Company's Mine.
" At one of the new mines of the South
Massillon Coal Campany, one mile south
of Navarro, October %, Joseph Fairless OF
Justus, was mining coal. While loosen.
ing large lump of coal from the side Of
the spot where he was working, large
amount Of the coal loosened and threw
Fairless against the side of the entrance
way
The man was taken to his home and
everything possible done for him, but 70
no avail. He died November 6. Coroner
Openhimer did not see that any particular
blame could be attached, hence thought
an inquest unnecessary, especially con.
sidering the length of time which elapsed
between the time of the accident and the
time of death.
A report of the accident was sent 10 the
State Mine Inspector and he thought that
an investigation should be made. The
Coroner therefore went down yesterday
afternoon. An investigation showed that
daeth resulted from an injury OF the hip,
Pelvic pertonites set in and caused death.
The accident cannot be b'a ned on any
of the mine officials as the unfortunate
miner did not use the necessary .precau-
ton In using drill at the time the coal
was being loosened.
Deceased was 40 years of age and leaves
wife and seven shildren. They are not
left entirely destitute, but have very little
of this worlds goods. The funeral of
Joseph Fairless was one OF the largest
ever held in that section of the county. He
was we'll liked by everybody.

PRISONERS SENTENCED.
Judge Poase Sends Mckee and Burke to
the Pen.

Judge Pease Sends Mckee and Burke to
the Pen.
Judge Pease has small use for people
who persist in knocking people down and
robbing them. The docket in criminal
court is rapidly being decreased, by reas-
on OF prisoners pleading guilty. Mckee
and Burke who knocked down William
Lambright OF Carrollton and stole his
watch and money, entered pleas OF guilty
and came before Judge Pease for sentence.
Mckee has lately returned from trip to
Columbus, but his experience there, as is
too often the case, did not have tendency
to reform him. Judge Pease was not in
clined to be lenient in his case in view of
this fact, and sentenced him to the peni-
tentiary for three years. So far as Stark
county is concerned, this was Burk's first
offense and he got of light, being sen
fenced for two years.
