A SERIOUS FALL.
Gust Schrader Falls From Street
Car-Badly Hurt.

Gust Schrader, of 200 Allen street, was
badly injured by falling off street car
last evening. Mr.. Schrader was riding
on an open South Market street car.
Near the Fort Wayne crossing he left his
seat and started TO walk to the front of
the car along the foot-rail. In some man
ner he lost his footing and fell with great
force on the street pavement. The car
was moving at a rapid rate, and this in
creased the violence of the fall. The man
did not move for some moments, and
several by-standers ran to his assistance
and picked him up. An examination of
the injuries revealed badly smashed
face, a cut in the left eye, a number of
deep scalp wounds and a broken right
arm. The man was conveyed to his
home where DIR. G H. Evans and DIR. r.
o. Morrow attended to his injuries. Mr..
Schruder will be laid up for several weeks
from his fall.

NJ. J. Roche Writes Regarding His
Recent Trouble at
Youn ostown

Phillip Bernower has received letter
from Nj. J. Roche, of Youngstown, in
which he makes the following statement
rearding his recent trouble in that city:
IN J. Roche held contract dated
january IL, 1899, made in Cleveland, and
signed by e. NJ. McGillin, w. J. McGil-
lin, and May McGillin, agreeing to buy
his So. 500 worth of stock in the e. NJ.
McGillin Co. ON demand. They refused to
do this. Then NJ. J. Roche held enough
of the funds of the company to balance
his stock, until they were finally forced to
do as they agreed-the McGillin Co.--to
buy his stock, and he to get his
money, which was done as agreed in the
contract This is the sum and sub
stance of the whole affair.

Harry Mehring, an employe of the

has invented new adjustable handle
bar for bicycle that is the finest thing

to be winner. The bar can be adjustI

Harper's Young People.

Hon. Theodore Roosevelt has written
a series of six articles, with the general
title ''HerOes of America" for Hdper's
Young People. Mr.. Roosevelt, as an ar
dent American, thinks that the bravery
OF American soldiers, displayed in the
four great wars, is not less worthy of
celebration than that which has been
regarded as the precious heritage of
other nations; and the grounds of his
belief may be sought in these articles.
The first article in the series will be
published in the Young People of April
30th, and will be devoted to the defence
OF New Orleans" in which defence, it will
be remembered, fifteen thousand Of the
first troops that had ever defeated Napo-

Mad Dog Scare.

sunday hight a dog belonging to DR..
Cheatham suddenly developed signs of
hydrophOba and went on the rampage
He bit several dogs about town all of
which have been killed or put up.
There was general scare Monday
morning when the news spread and it
was unsafe for any dog to be seen away
from home unless he could show good
credentials through his owner. Several
persons had narrow escapes from being
bitten but whether the dog in each
case was rabid or not is doubtful. The
one that did the damage, and which
there appears to be no question as to
his being mad, got away but it has been
reported that he was killed few miles
from town next day.
Among the dogs supposed to have
been bitten by this one was valuable
young English setter belonging to Mr..
n. Z. Strause, for which he paid 800
as puppy some time last year. He
heard dogs fighting in the yard that
night and next morning his setter was
found to be badly injured. He has
put the animal up as precaution and
will await developments.

This Interests You.

One always feels uncertain, when COM
ing to a new place, whether or not he
will win the favor OF the public, which
he is counting and trying to earn. In
most kinds of business the rule is to be
enterprising and not wait until the
stream comes to you. But what can an
artist-who is not q peddler-do, but
advertise, hang out his samples and
then wait for his patrons to look and
ask and suggest and find faults?
Where the interest for photographs
has partially died out, as it will some
times do in places, where you are accus-
toned to see the same work from year to
wear. done by the same artist, in the
same gallery, it takes some time to
arouse the public and bring about tho
feeling that you must have some pictures.
Bnt as long as the world does move they
will be made. Mothers must have the
children's and children must have the
parents. Good portraits are always ad-
mired, ornaments in any drawing room,
and photography is natural necessity
of all commercial and scientific life. In
the rush for the almighty dollar the ar
fist, too often, cares not whether ne
pleases his customers or not. We, who
have travelled thousands miles-some-
times on a rough uphill road with but
few roses by the wayside-who have made
tens of thousands of photos, who have
loved the sunny smiles OF the European
Eve, and studied and admired the mag
nificent grace of American daugters, from
Newfoundland to Florida; from the At
lantic to the Pacific, we know, that the
