A Terrible Crime,

FINDLAY, o., Sept. lO.-John c. West,
who has been wanted in this city for n
year for assaulting Miss Lille Kautz,
stole horse and buggy from in front
of the police station Saturday night
and drove several miles in the country to
the residence of f. q. Clymcr and upon
the pretense that her father was dying,
induced Flora Martin, Il 1j-year-old
cripple who was living at the Clymer
house, to go with him in the buggy
supposedly to her father, but instead,
West drove short distance and then
overpowered and outraged the help
less girl.
When attempting to drive on, the
buggy overturned and the girl escaped
and sought refuge at a neighboring
farm house, the occupants of which
obtained assistance and after securing
the country succeeded yesterday after
noon in finding West. He was brought
to this city and placed in the county
Jail. There was some talk of lynching
last night, but such an occurrence is
not probable.

The Coxey show.

CANAL FULToN, Sept. 1.-THE CoxeS
paraphernalia was moved into this
place yesterday after a gorgeous open
ing date in Massillon Saturday. at
tended by audiences of 1,20O and 1000
respectively, and talking that contin-
ued from o'clock to 10, with an inter-
mission for supper. Mr. CoXey says his
show is not circus, hence the parade
was omitted. Contribution boxes stared
the visitors in the face. and most of the
latter seemed oblivious of the stare. A
banjo artist and band enlivened the
proceedings. CoXey's speech was en-
tirely local in it's illustrations. He
raked the council fore and aft and he
poured grape and canister into the
bankers. Each time he hit the bulls
eye the populace applauded vigorously
Carl Browne followed in Il similar
strain. Coxey makes this official an.
pouncement: 1T takes ten wagons to
haul the tents, poles and seats, includ-
ing the band wagon with twelve musi-
clans. 1t is expected from all people
that are interested in this reform move
ment to bring teams to help haul and
provisions and feed to sustain thirty
men and twenty horses.

Tho Thrifty Village of Dalton Devastated
by Fire.
MAssILLoN, Sept. 1.-THE village of
Dalton, nine miles west of Massillon,
is partly in ashes. The fire started at
2:3o yesterday morning in a shed and
was supposed to be of incendiary ori-
gin. The frame houses burned like
tinder and at o'clock twenty acres in
the heart of the town had been de-
vastated and over fifty structures total
ly destroyed. The village water sup
ply was soon exhausted. Appeals for
help were sent to all surrounding
towns and at the earliest moment pos
sible special trains took such equip
ment to the scene as Massillon, Canton
and orrville could spare. Two steam
fire engines were soon put to work and
the long-looked-for rain began falling
BY s o'clock the flames had eaten up
everything within range and the worst
was over.
No estimate can be placed upon the
loss. There is scarcely any insurance
and the homeless wanderers are left in
want. Household goods were removed
to the street, only to be destroyed in
that place of supposed safety. The
citizens of the place were running
about completely panic stricken. No
serious accidents We're reported. One
man was carried out of a hotel uncon-
scious, but will recover.
The entire loss has been estimated by
the mayor at S2o0,O00 The approxi-
mate insurance on the buildings is
100000. The entire post office depart
ment was also destroyed, The heat
from the smoldering ruins is so in
tense that one can hardly pass through
the streets. The town hall, a large
brick building the paraphernalia of the
l. O. o. F., X. of p. j. o. L. A. NJ, Il,
A. r. and +. NJ. C. lodges, has been en-
tirely destroyed. Many of the mer
chants who suffered loss are placed III
such Il position as to render them un
able to rebuild unless by the assistance
| of wealthier ones.

ously reported an accident which
befell native on Sunday evening.
The car had nothing to do with it
in any manner, further than that it
was running on street which is
narrow. / was on the car and saw
the accident When coming in
from Palama, at Z ;20P, NJ, on King
street, between Maunakea street
and the bridge, native attempted
TO come toward the car, or perhaps
to cross the street. At that instant
a wagonette dashed In from Pala-
ma passing the car, the horses
knocking the man down and wag
onette going over him. The car
was stopped Immediately but the
wagonette drove on without car
ing for what damage it might have
done. Several of our passengers
jumped off and together with the
bystanders carried the wounded
man into a Chinese shop from
whence he was taken to the police
station. JAS. w. GIRVIN.

Sb - ~ - :" NSs VI iCSt dCAnOWl-
edged to be of divine origin. 1t is
universally admitted that a rest
upon one day in seven is beneficial,
even by the opponents of any reli-
gion.
Our Sunday laws are not very
strictly administered, and it does
not seem that in a community, at
any rate professedly religious, a
more consistent enforcement of
them would be a hardship. The
number of stores open on Sunday
all over the islands is simply ridi-
culous, as here, at any rate, no per-
son need leave their purchases over
till Sunday.
To reduce Sunday to the place
of merely a Government holiday
will most certainly not be for the
benefit of the "hard- working me-
chanic," ETC., for whose benefit the
innovation is proposed. In conse-
quence of the present idea of Sun
day being a day on which labor
is unlawful, it is the rule to pay
double wages for all unnecessary
work done on that day-in all
places where the Sunday is recog-
nized. But, where the legal holt
day only prevails, it is not by any
means a day of rest to the working
man.
No doubt many here allow, and
demand a great deal more labor on
the Sunday from their servants and
animals than a Christian inter
probation of the divine law might
be supposed to sanction but this
is matter for each to settle with
their own consciences. AT the
same time, to commit ourselves, as
a nominally Christian community,
to an authorized official breach of
the time-honored observance of
would seem to be grave
especially as we are now
to the Christian sympa-
thies of all those who prefer civiliz-
alton upon a Christian basis.
This is not question of 'liberal
views" or otherwise. We have it
on the very highest authority that
The Sabbath was made for man,
and not man for the Sabbath"
For any community, therefore, to |
compel the labor of any of their |
for anything not of neces-
sity upon that day is to take away
rom those servants something they |
are morally entitled to.
No person of average intelligence
need be misled by any remarks |
about the work carried on in con-
lection with church services, while
,ram-car and hack service has some
excuse in necessity"
Every individual has the right
% spend the Sunday as he likes,
'ut no one has the right to COM
bel another to forego his right
o a day of rest. But, as |
said before, if we once put Sun
lay on the footing of any other
then all can be compelled
o work on that day at their en-
,loyer's whim, without compensa-
ion, and without the appeal to the
aw, which does not compel labor
n Sunday in any Protestant coun-
~, except under special contract.
This is a question which must be
from a moral stand
ONT, as it is a moral one alto
ether.
1t is not desired to curtail the
berty of any one, but to change
'om a position of individual liberty
, one of public license, would be
very great mistake in the opinion
