ginner, the wheel "strikes root" at the
bottom of the first slight rise in tho
road. 1t refuses to bulge an inch and
topples languidly over. This INDECENT
inclination is soon overcome by practice,
however, and that not by means of phys

is great mistake to attempt to force
the wheel up hill. The power will come
by use alone, and overcxertion is iDjuri-

his first ride will stick at the foot of a
hill that skillful woman rider of not

THE ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION.
From the Toledo journal.


When Major Mckinley was elected
governor Clark demanded the removal
of General Sherwood as trustee of the
Ohio Soldiers and Sailors Orphan Home
at Xenia. This Governor Mckinley de.
clined to do and General Sherwood is
still on the board.
When the National Court of Inquiry
of the Woman's Relief Corps convened
in Canton year ago to examine into
the charges that his wife, Ada f. Clark,
while president of the Ohio Relief
Corps, had collected and used charity
funds of the order, Clark became en-
ragged because Major Vignos. leading
veteran of Canton and proprietor of the
Canton cutlery establishment, testified
that he had paid money to Mrs. Clark,
thereby sustaining the charge.
Clark next turned his attention to
General G. L. Young, of the Ohio Sol
diers and Sailors Orphans Home, and
got Department Commander Mack, of
Sandusky, to demand an investigation
Governor Mckinley placed the charges
in the hands Of the Ohio Board of
State Charities. This board, after full
investigation, not only declared the
charges without foundation, but have
given testimony to the fact that the
Orphans Home, under General Young,
is the model institution of its kind in
the United States.
The publication of these things in
the Canton NEWS. DEMOCRAT, General
Sherwood's paper, has greatly angered
Clark, and he has openly threatened to
attack General Sherwood on many oc-
casions, and General Sherwood has
been repeatedly warned by Canton
friends to be prepared for Clark.
The latest outbreak was caused by
the publication of telegram from the
State Relief Corps convention at Ham
ilton last week. This was to the effect
that the convention had adopted re.
port made by the delegate at large,
that the Tenth National convention,
held at Washington, sustained the YER
dict of the Canton court, guilty as
charged" and had ordered Mrs. Clark
to pay over the money; and this despite
violent protest made by Mr.. Clark
against the report.
j. J. Clark, who received the title of
"Colonel" as post commander, was a
lieutenant in Col. A. L. Conger's regi-
ment during the war. He and General
Sherwood have had no personal differ
ences. The publication of what was
considered legitimate news in the
NEws-DEMoCRAT has been the cause
of Clark's animosity.

JOHN II. CLARK, of Youngstown, a
bright and leading young lawyer of
Eastern Ohio, is spoken of as a Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor by many
of his party friends. We know of no
one in the state better qualified to make
the race and fill that Office than John
H. Clark of Mahoning county. He is
an accomplished scholar, an eloquent
speaker, a first class Democratic
stumper, worthy in every respect and
available at this time. If hel is the
Democratic candidate at the coming
election we can bespeak for him a large
vote in this section of the state.

Charles Norton and Robert Haas were ar
rested last night, charged with working
the "flimham" racket on saloon keepers
around town. The scheme which was op-
Grated by Norton is an old but clever one.
Going into Quigley's saloon on North
Hazel street, Norton laid five dollar bill
on the bar and called for cigar; when
the bar tender turned to get the cigar
Norton substituted a one dollar bill for the
Ave, and the bartender, not noting the
change in the bills, gave Norton change
for So, which he pocketed and quickly
left. Quigley says that it has only been
two weeks since the racket was worked
on him before, and he gave change for
$50 and got two-dollar note.

way out Of their troubles, they have
not raised the calamity cry of "cheap

says In an interview: "The country is

ways that win satisfy the country with.

THE Youngstown Vindicator quotes
from the tribute paid by the NEWS
DEMOCRAT to the good, old fashioned,
homely virtues of Queen Victoria and
adds as follows:
Our contemporary has forgotten to
mention one characteristic of the
.queen-she is the stingiest queen
known to the civilized world. Ameri-
can generosity has saved her subjects
from death by starvation, when she did
not contribute dollar and yet her in
come is enormous. The truth should
be told in addition to praises, some of
which may be deserved.
