HEAVY DAMAGE SUIT.
sErs. Mary A. Ertle Sues Mrs. Lena
Moushey and Louis Moushey
For Damages in the Sum of $4,000 for
alleged Defamation Of oharaoter--A
pieest of the Contents Of the Petition.

Two we'll known Canton ladies are at
variauce and suit for dsmages Ia large
sum has been filed in common pleas court.
Tue plaintiff in the suit Ia Mrs. Mary A.
Ertle, wife of Fred Ertle OF No. 80 South
Walnut street, and the defendants are
Mrs. Lena Moushey and her husband
Louis Moushey. The latter is made n de.
feudant, though the slanderous utterances
are alleged to have come from bis wife,
and no particular complaint II made
against the husband. For some time Mrs.
Ertle has been snubbed by some OF her
frionds. She soon discovered what che
considered to be the cause and consulted
Attorney Samuel Burgert who drew up a
petition for damages.
Plaintiff states in her petition that at the
1Sme of her grievances complained of she
was q music teacher Ia Canton and enjoy
ed a good reputation for moral worth and
Integrity. For a first cause Mrs. Ertle
alleges that on February s, 1892, Mrs.
Moushey, in the presence aud hearing of
divers persons, spoke and published
malicious words TO the effect that she
could not teach music and was not At to
play for decent people.
For a second cause OF action II Is alleR-
ed by Mrs. Ertle, that Mrs Moushey made
che statement that plaintiff was not At to
enter Basps hall, and that IL she did enter
she, Lena Moushey, would go out. It may
here be stated that this was on the oc-
G&shOu OF Nlle tcap year party given py tue
Maah0ttan club. Mrs. Ertle went to the
party and Mrs. Moushey is alleged to
have objected to allowing her to enter the
hall.
Mes. Ertle aloo has a third cause OF &C
ton. She alleges that Mrs. Moushey
made the statement on February %, 1892,
80 the presence OF divers persons, that
Mrs. Ertle and her mother, while living
IA Massillon, used to go no the alley
drunk at nights, By reason of the reports
circulated by Mrs. Moushey Mrs. Ertle
states that she has been grossly injured
and damaged, and that o number of her
pupils have ceased to take instruction
from her, and q number who had agreed
20 take lessons now refuse to do so.
The petition further states that the de-
2endant, Mrs. Moushey, has so malicious
iy slandered the plaintiff that some of her
friends have been induced TO suub her,
aud that through the actions of the dc.
fendant, and the slanderous words spo-
ken, she has been robbed of her good
name and character, and cannot go out
into society, and parties who associated
with her on and before the grievances
complained of. now re fuse to associate
with her.
Wherefore plaintiff says that she is
greatly injured in ber good name and rep
utAtion, and in her profession as a music
ian in teaching music, to her damage
$4,000, for which she prays judgment.

The sWrIt of Desifdctiveness.

It was Just luncheon hour the other day
when truck loaded with big piece Of
gisss plate halted before the rear Of the
Equitable building, ON Nassau street.
There was a windlass geared to the truck,
and from the top Of tho building rope,
rugged with pulleys, reached to the street.
Four men were on the truck, and they
fastened the rope to the plate glass, pre-
paratory to hoisting it to window on the
top floor
The work went on briskly and q crowd
of some hundreds had gathered when the
glass began to ascend. When IL was we'll
above the pavement the crowd extended
from the scene Of action to Cedar street on
the north and to Wall street on the south.
1t was composed entirely Of men, every one
of whom kept his eyes firmly fixed on the
glass.
The workmen ground away grimly at
the crank, and the plate rose steadily.
When it was about half way up all necks
were craned TO an average angle of about
45 degs., and the angle increased as the
men toiled on. IL was silent crowd. No
body spoke. Each addition TO 1t seemed to
join in the spirit of the occasion, and find
ing convenient spot began to gaze with a
determination that would not be moved.
1t was not until well after luncheon hour
that the glass reached its destination.
The men at the windlass stopped. Then,
after the huge burden had been carefully
guided through the window by means Of
considerable shouting on the part of the
men above, and vice versa, the crowd dis
persed and went back to business late.
But no sigh of relief was heaved, for
there was not n man there who had not
yearned from the bottom of his heart for
the glass to fall and dash to pieces on the
pavement.-New York Evening Sun.

The Average American Abroad.

What the average American abroad is
most conspicuous for is the commission OF
small sins. Instead of wondering that the
English criticise us, we ought to wonder
rather that their hospitality was not ex-
hausted long ago; for really the behavior
of some of our people abroad would try the
patience of the angels in the seventh
heaven. Never by any chance do they
seem to do the wight thing except in the
wrong way; and ones head spins in ran
sacking the code to discover what is the
spring of their action. The free and easy,
go as you please mebbe we will way in
which they accept an invitation to dinner
that sacred function-is appalling.
They utterly disregard that time, money,
pains, courtesy and brains have been ex-
pended to give them delightful dinner

in the House amendment to the Senate

tion of this resolution was a stroke OF Re-
publican policy. The present legislature
has wasted three months time and spent
thousands of dollars of the peoples money
without having accomplished any good or
enacted slDgle law that will rebound to
tho benefit of the masses. The time has
been spent principally in scoring for posi-
ton between the Foraker and Sherman
factions. The first bill to be introduced
in the Senate was the redistricting hill
and on this proposition the factions OF the
Republican party divided. For three
months fhev have fought over tho diVis-
