THE TIPpEoANoE BANQUET.

The Affair Turns Out Success---Most of
Icy is the Central Figure---He Defends
the Billion Congress.
The Tippacance banquet at the Forest
City house, Cleveland, last night, was
success, in a point of numbers and ali.
mentary lay out. Besides the speakers Of
the evening, there were some 200 guests
present. Canton was highly honored.
Major Mckinley was the first speaker and
Judge Fawcett, our urbane, diplomatic and
oratorical Probate Judge, was the last.
The soup was all right, and the Forest
City House did all the details of solids and
liquids in the bill Of fare, with promptness
and ability.
In speaking Of Major Mckinley as the
first speaker OF the evening, we mean, of
course, the first speaker among the invit-
ed guests. Ex.ConRressman Burton
made the opening address on behalf of
the Tippecanoe Club, and he spoke en-
tirely too long.
In our edition of yesterday we printed
full list Of the distinguished Cantonians
present. We are glad to be able to state
that, notwithstanding the land slide, they
all reached the banquet in good state of
preservation. A young man by the name
of Vail followed Major Mckinley, then
followed in order Congressman Morey,
Dan Ryan, Sec. of State, Mayor Gardner,
Gen. Ed. S. Meyer, Attorney Gen. Wat
son, Auditor of State Poe, Ex-Congress.

The Leader does not mention the ban
quet or the Majors speech in its editorial
columns.
Secretary Foster, Hon. Ben Butterworth,
Hon. Charles II. Grosvenor and Hon. V. A.

Neither of the Cleveland dailies referred
to the ominous land slide which blockaded
the road of the Canton statesmen en-
route to this banquet.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
An Aunt of Katie Detwiller Takes
Morphine Fills,
And Afterwards Thinks Better Of the
Rash Act--A Physician Succeeds in Saw
ing Her Life.

It has just leaked out that Mrs. Eek, re-
siding at 1873 South Market street, made
an unsuccessful attempt some days ago TO
end her life, The matter has been kept
very quiet.
Mrs. Eek is an aunt of Katie Detwiller,
the girl who committed suicide at Louis
vile recently by hanging herself. A few
days ago Mrs. Eek called on her neighbor
Mrs. Douds, and they talked over the
facts connected with the death of Katie
Detwiller.
Mrs. Eek became greatly excited and
left the house suddenly. She went to her
home and took several morphine pills.
Evidently after taking the medicine she
thought better of the matter, as she went
at once to the residence of Mrs. Poyser in
South Cleveland avenue and told what had
happened.
DIR. Fraunfelter was sent for and after
working with the woman for sometime,
succeeded in saving her life. Mrs. Eek
is peculiar in her ways, and II is probable
she will be sent away. She resided with
Mr.J. Campbell at 1888 South Market street.

"our Old Court House,"

In the north show winhow of Chance &

resenting the old Court house with the
public building containing the county
offices and the Farmers and Mechanics
block attached. The other is the latter
block by itself containing Wikidal's store,
Farmers National hank, and l. p. Miller's
store. Reynolds & Saxton's hardware
store can also be seen at the end of the

pecially from old Cantonians. The pic
lures were taken, we learn by Mr.. W. K.
Miller of this city, who was at one time a
leading artist in Canton.

Aaaaultad a Bow.

A warrant was sworn out in Squire
Reigner's court this morning for the arrest
of Fred Preusser on the charge of assault
and battery. In the affidavit the complain
ing witness Nathan Quinn, a boy about 16
years of age, who has for some time past
been in the employ of the Canton Pottery
company, charges Preusser with assault
ing him yesterday morning. The boy, if
his story is true, went to the works yester-
day morning to get his clothes and draw
the money that was due him. Preusser
refused the lad admission and when he
insisted, Preusser jumped on him, choked
him and threw him to the ground.

Roup begins with cold, followed by
inhammatory symptoms; then comes the
discharge with swelling of eyes, face,
loss Of appetite, etc. AS the disease is
highly contagious and, once well under
way, incurable, it is better, unless the
bird is very valuable, to kill it at once
and so stop the spread of the contagion.
On first indications of the sickness isolate
the birds; keep them warm and dry; feed
soft food; add little Douglas mixture
to the water. Wash the head with tepid
water and give daily one grain sulphate
of copper. Recently reports have come
regarding the efficacy of spongia "a
homeopathic remedy for roup P. H.
Jacobs, editor of The Poultry Keeper, is
credited with having first recommended
it. Spongia can be obtained at any
homeopathic pharmacy, the ''mother
tincture in the third decimal" and the
quantity four drops So a pint of water is
the prescription. The fowls take it in
place Of the usual drinking water. We
give this formula SO that any reader who
desires can test it.

THE BOSTON BOY CHAMPION.
Dixon Knocked Mccarthy Out in tho
Twenty Second Round and Wins the
Crib Climbs Sd 300,


Dixon Knocked Mccarthy Out in tho
Twenty Second Round and Wins the
Crib Clubs 81, 800.
TROY, N. Y, April 1.-Cal Mccarthy,
who has for over two years been the
feather weight champion of America,
last night surrendered the title to George
Dixon, the colored boxer of Boston, who
has also won the feather-weight cham
pionship of England. Dixon has been,
ever since the match was made, the fa-
vorite in the betting, but Mccarthy who
has many friends and admirers among
the weather. sporting people of New
York and vicinity, carried considerable
money. The contest took place in the
rink of the Troy Bicycle club, on Fed
eral street, under the auspices of the
Troy Crib club.
Mccarthy weighed in at 114t and
Dixon at 115 pounds. There were over
5000 spectators present, and the house
netted $4,000 in receipts. Dixon had
things his own way from start to finish.
He practically won the fight in the sec
ond round, when he sent Mccarthy to
the floor by a vicious left-hander. From
that to the eleventh round he rained a per-
feet deluge of uppercuts on Mccarthy,
leaving the Jerseyman bleeding from
the nose and mouth and with badly
battered right eye. Mccarthy braced
up from the fifteenth to ths eighteenth
round, going at Dixon like mad in the
fifteenth. In the twenty-frst Jack Nc
Auliffe, who was seconding Mccarthy,
took him from the ring to revive him,
but referee Jerry Dunn brought him
back and Dixon gave the second knock
during the affair with staggering right
handler. Dixon went at Mccarthy in
the final round like a pile-driver, send
ing him down seven times in succession.
Mccarthy gets but $500 of the purse.

Rev. Howard Maeaueary on Top.

Rev. Howard MacQueary has returned
to Canton, after most delightful recep-
ton in jamestown, N. Y, and Oil City,
Pa. Next Sunday he will preach in Chi
cago.
He is in excellent spirits and full of hope
for the future, which looks bright.
Bishop Leonard is now in pocket, and
his sentence against MacQueary cannot
be executed, as it is in excess of the ver-
dict of the Court and clearly illegal. The
Bishop will be compelled to back down, las
nearly all the church papers East are taxi
ing strong grounds against him.
