upon rising saw the volumes issuing from
Corry's door. They ran and called him.

turned In. Foreman William Noalser and
Captain Elorin Rose and Adam Hane
boldly rushed in the room to rescue Cory
but the flremen found the fellow lying
upon the floor dead with his flesh badly
charred. 1t seems Cory. when drunk,
several times upset lamps and attempted
to burn down the house. The alarm came
In from box 63 and Nos. 2, 8 and the Cen,
trail responded. Corry's remains will be
taken to Massillon for burial. He was q
member Of the order of Odd Fellows.

sides opened FIRE. Never before has
there been heard in this community
such laundering OF guns
s1d heavy cannon and such
| volumes OF powder smoke ne that which
emnnated from the conflict. II was so
| real and the contest seemed so rigidly
| fought that n NEWS DEMOCRAT reporter
| who was standing near battery nearby
really imagined he saw the bloody con.
| flict OF '63 fought over again. Again and
again the Union forces were led forward
and successively retreated under the
heavy fire OF the gray coAts. During the
second charge heavy field piece was
| captured by Copfeds. and with cheers
borne over TO their line. The flag OF truce
went forward and the ambulances and
their corps Of trained men picked up the
dead soldiers ~ and conveyed them to
the respective hospitals. An amusing in
cident occurred during the picking up OF
injured men by the ambulances from the
field. There was q sad finale to the bat
tie In which an unfortunate young fellow
had both his hands blown of. During the
second charge by the Union forces heavy
one hundred and eighty pound soldier
was quietly picked up by four OF the hos
pital corps and placed on gtretcher.
His comrades looked upon him presuma-
bly, for the last time and promised TO
keep bis grave green with garlands and
the hands of four stalwart men and rs
they stole toward the ambulance the poor
soldier closed his eyes In the coldness OF
death. The fellows were not well &C.
quainted with the ups and downs OF Can
ton land and as they boldly walked along,
their lips breathing q lasting prayer for
the injured comrAde, they failed to notice
several post holes immediately in front
OF them and they imprudently stepped
into them.
But the dead man behind He was sent
rolling OIL the atretcher With au "ah' umn
exclamation and sent sprawling several
feet. The effect Of the post holes was
magical and they pretty well recuperatod
the fellow, for the countenance of death
which had overtaken him awoke to
one of amusement and he shuflled up on
his feet to the ambulance before the bal
aDce OF the boys saw the comedy.
During the third charge Companies l
and L and the veterans formed Tor q
grand rush and assisted by the well aimed
artillery, the fort, ambuscaded by several
hundred coDfederates, was taken and
great cheer arose and the battle was at an
gun,was captured by the Confederates.
Taking the sham battle all in all II was q
complete success. Canton people may
well be proud Of Companies / and L and
their captains and officers, as the boys
certainly won the applause OF the thou
shuus OF spectators present Dy tneh perN
feet tactics and drilling and the regular
maneuverinR. II was gala day in Can
toms growth and a successful one at that. |
THE VISITING ARMY PLEASED.
The Army OF the Cuynhoga arrived here |
Tuesday morning at o'clock and at once, |
after participating in the parade, were
marched to the fair grounds. The boys |
state they greatly enjoyed the trip down |
here. They stopped Monday night at the |
Graham farm north OF this city, breaking |
camp al O'Clock in the morning.

You Had Better Read This If You Want
to Succeed,
Many persons, especially some Of the
local advertisers of this city, seem to think
that the great Adam Forepaugh Shows
waste an immense amount OF money in
advertising, and think that shows SO we'll
established and so extremely popular
with the public, need only to announce
their coming, to insure them all the busi>
ness they are capable Of taking care Of.
But Manager McCeddon, who conducts
this vast amusement enterprise is q man
OF keen business judgment, and the fact
that he does so much advertising 10 the
best argument that he believes that It
pays. But in addition to his judgment ne
has In his employ several of the most ex-
pert advertisers in the country, and what
Is done is Likewise o reflection of their
judgment, for their chief is not above ac,
cepting and acting upon a suggestion
from them. One of these experts, who
was In this office this week, said upon this
subject: "There can be no argument
upon such subject so powerful as the
history Of all great business enterprises.
Without an exception every one of them
have made their success through and di,
rectly through their advertising. There
can scarcely be such thing as too much
advertising.
Advertising Is not condition II 10 a
principle. 1t must be done in all kinds of
business, and ours ia not the only one
which has to depend upon 1t. If we do
more advertising than anybody else, and
as matter OF fact we do, IL is because we
want to do a bigger business than any
body else and we do that also. Perhaps
we might do 1t IL We did not advertise 30
much, but We are not willing to make SO
doubtful an experiment.. We know il is
the newspaper that is a constant adver-
tiser OF the community in which il is pub,
lished, and all share alike fro II the cers
tain benefits TO community accruing. 1t
Is matter OF just as much concern TO us,
therefore, to ace the newspapers succeed
as IL is to anybody else who benefits from
the general prosperity of the community
which the newspapers bring about. We
hope to get our share of ii and feel that
the money we spend upon the news
papers is well spent even If they should
fail to bring to US but few people, who
would come to us IL we did or did not ed,
vertise. or course, that is very broad
gagged idea of things, but then we are a
broad gauged concern, and have to look
farther ahead than those whose business
is con nfined to very narrow limits"
ls not this opinion worthy of considera-
tlon by the business element of our city
The great Adam ForepAugh Shows
never divide. The performances in the
smallest towns are identically the same
as those given In the largest cities. For
that reason II 10 known as the big city

HANDS BLOWN OFF.
HORRIBLE ACCIDENT AT THE FOURTH
OF JULY SHAM BATTLE,

Young Man From Barberton Meets
With an Awful Experience and as q
Result He Will Go Through Life With
out Hands.
Harry Bachman who 10 q member of an
independent Battery of artillery OF Bar
bertown, near Akron, was the seriously
injured Tuesday in the sham battle,
Bschman was with Confederates
and was about pushing ram-rod into
the gun when the gun prematurely
went of and indescribably tor
tured him. The young msn's both
hands were torn away and his face pow
dered and mutilated slmost beyond rec
ognition. The ramrod was thrown several
hundred feet distant where it was broken,
coming into contact with tree. Near by
lay the remains of one OF Bnchman's
hands horribly bearimmed with powder.
An ambulance quickly conveyed him to
the Aultman hospital where he may pos
sibly recover, although some fears are en-.
tertained as to his recovery. BachmAn is
about twenty years of age and is tile
worker. As soon as practicable he will be
removed to his home. just why the cam
non exploded at that time is as yet mys-
terry although il mAy have been the reault
OF carelessness on the part of some one.
The injured mans brother ID in the city
and is seeing that ell that Is possible is
being done to relieve the unfortunate vic
tim Of the accident. At $3.50 o'clock this
afternoon Bachman was resting well and
his recovery now seems probable, but he
will be obliged to 90 through life without
hands, as q result of his horrifying ex.
perience In the sh IN battle. The Fourth
of July 1898. was no aham for him.

HEAD FOREMOST.
Louis Moushey's Brother Nearly
Killed at Alliance.

Joseph Moushey, of Alliance, q barber.
brother of Louis Mouahey of this city, res
ceived injuries In Alliance yesterday
which may result fatally. In company
with his children he was driving on one of
the main streets of the city, at compsrar
lively rapid trot, when some one threw
fire cracker into the street, the thing ex-
ploding in front of the horse. As soon As
the cracker exploded, the horse stopped
suddenly. Mr.. Moushey was not prepared
for no sudden stop and was thrown
over the dash board, hanging with bis
head downward. The animal, badly
frightened, started to run. The children
were thrown out and were somewhat in.
jured. When Mr.. Moushey WAS extricated
from the wreck 1t was found that his in
juries were of serious character. His
head is badly cut and he sustained other
injuries. He is veteran of the Gate war
and his constitution is not as strong as II
might be, hence the wounds may prove
fatal. Louis Moushey went to Alliance
today to be at his brothers bedside.

Serious Injuries Narrowly Averted by
Prompt Actions OF Driver.

Serious Injuries Narrowly Averted by
Prompt Actions OF q Driver,
A bay horse belonging to Mr.. G. A.
Laughlin, OF the Axle works, this city, be-
came unmAnsgeable at the hill on West
Tuscarawas streetwhile driving tow ard the
square at 12:3o today. The horse has been
used as a runner with trotters, and has
acquired habit OF taking the bit in his
teeth and "pulllng out" at about the rate
Of 2:3o whenever a horse 10 driven up from
the rear. He tried the same old trick this
noon but the track between pavements
was not of the most convenient width,
when the uses for street cars, bicycles and
other vehicles are considered, consequent
ly at High street the front wheel of the
elegant and coBtly phaeton struck the
curbing and then pole. This smashed
the wheel and threw Mr.. Laughlin to the
ground. He hung to the lines, however.
and was dragged about fifty feet, when
the horse fell. Mr.. Laughlin was not in.
jured. but the phaetOn was badly de-
molished. This horse ran away on
Dueber avenue about ten days ago, while
being driven by Mr.. Laughlin, but luckily
it was stopped before any damage was
done.
