IT WAS A SUCCESS.
Fair Receipts Exceed the EXpen,
ditures by S24.
THE EXISTING SHORTAGE

In the Treasury of the Agricultural
Society Caused by Necessary Inn
The. Monday Afternoon
Meeting.
The meeting of the Stark County Agri-
cultual Society Monday afternoon was
harmonious in the extreme, although at
times 1t looked as If something might de-
velop to make the meeting lively.
The reports showed that the last fair
was a financial success, the receipts ex-
ceeding the expenditures ny SEA. The
shortage is caused by permanent improve
ments. The president and secretary were
instructed to arrange with the Farmers
Bank to carry an ovedraft of 1,0S1, and
make arrangements for the payment of
other bills. The secretary was instructed
to collect bills due the association.
When 1t came to signing the note for
81, 900, Member Shaffer declined to put
his name to the paper. When asked If he
would do SO, in case Of his reelection, as
director, he said he would give the presi-
dent an answer in a few days.
81 am sorry to hear" said Mr.. Shaffer,
that some people have bought up tickets
in order to control the election. The
only way to make the fair success is for
us to stick together, and each individual
vote his own stock"
President Conrad was instructed to keep
the note until it was signed by all direo-
tors excepting Mr.. Shaffer.
The crop report was submitted and
premiums awarded as follows
]. H. Myers, two acres wheat, 72 2-3
bushels, fl rst premium. K. G. Mong,
66k bushels, second.
S. L. Correll two acres oats, 16O56
bushels, first premium.
j. H. Myers, two acres corn, 1914 bush
els, first premium. J. S. Basic, 166
bushels, second.
e. q. Mong, 4 acre potatoes, SO 4
bushels, first premium. J. H. Myers,

An official of the treasury depart,

Withdrawals of gold, said that they
were caused by . combination of cir.
cumstances The more or less serious
break up in Kaffir stocks had created
large and immediate demand for

obliged to sell American securities

and were more readily turned into
money and at less sacrifice than al,
most any stocks, and hence the recent
heavy sales.
Another reason he said the high rate
of interest prevailing in the eastern
money markets, especially in Berlin,
where interest very recently reached Q

always sought the best markets, and
that market was at present In Europe.

LOCAL CAPITALISTS
Along the Route of the Proposed New
Railroad

From Canton 60 East Liverpool in the
Enterprise for Money and Because
They Want Another outlet.
The Cleveland Leader says the Canton
e. East Liverpool railroad has behind it
local capitalists along the proposed route.
They are going into the scheme partly be-
cause they see in 1t, or think they do,
profitable Investment, and partly because
they wish another outlet. This latter in
duoement is perhaps the controlling mo-
tive with the promoters who now live
along the Ohio river, for they have only
one railroad, down there, the Cleveland &
PiJtsburg, and the quantity Of freight
which they turn out is enormous. 1t is
said to be one of the richest traffic pro.
duoinR districts in the state. 1t is said
that considerable money has ,already
been pledged to construct the proposed
road.

Question-What has been done In the
county with reference to Black KNOTT
Several townships reported as having cir
culated petitions and given to trustees,
and the simple knowledge Of such action
having been taken had been sufficient to
cause many farmers to destroy all trees
on their premises affected with Black
Knot.
Eli Grant, committee on noxious
weeds, said he had no report as the weeds
were all dead.
Mrs. Reeder had found some lively
burrs along the sidewalks of Alliance
and carried them home on her dress, FOR
seed, we presume.
VOLUNTEER PERFORMANCES.
Mr.. McGregor read an amusing poem
by Sam Walter Foss on the modest wants
of the monopolist
the story of his life as slave, as q SOL
dier in the rebel army-a very pathetic
recital.
President Nash read paper that
sounded like burlesque, on the New Wo-
man. He had no sooner resumed his
seat than Mrs Reeder flew at him with
an extravaganza in Irish brogue ON the
"ComiDg Woman" that knocked the
house off its base.
Mr.. Aultfather again called attention
to the state meeting and stated that par
ties of ten are entitled to reduced rates.o

THE SAM JONES FAMILY.

The Famous Evangelist Is Very CharIta-
 ble and Loves Fast Horses.
 Sam Jones, the revivalist, whose strong preaching and wonderful com mand of picturesque slang has made him famous from one end of the coun- try to the other, lives in Cartersville, Ga. when he is not on the road endeav- bring to save souls. Despite the fact that the evangelist gives away more money annually in charities than he spends for the support of his family he is quite well to do and is the owner of two excellent farms, gristmill, 8 number of valuable lots and some stock ill Gainesville bank, of which he is a director. He is also said to carry one of the largest life insurance policies in Georgia.
 When Jones is in Cartersville, he wears slouch hat and plain business suit and calls all his friends by their first names. They address him as Sam and admire him for his energy and his quaint wit. On the street Jones smokes a cigar or q pipe and drives across coun- try behind thoroughbred horse. He is a great admirer of fast horses, and it is said that next to the work of saving souls he most enjoys holding the ribbons over a thoroughbred equine He has six children and is very happy ill his do-

Down ill the art gallery he: efforts were much admired, especially her study of animals, and so the dear little girl fan cied herself a second Rose BOI heur. Now, she was inspired to paint COWS, goats and pigs so one fine morning she betook herself to suburban farmyard beyond Wells. All alone under spread ing tree she commenced sketching a humble bossy COW that was strolling slowly across the dusty road in search of clover.

General Grant and the Cirous Horse

The following is an extract from curious Japanese "Life of General Grant," portions of which are printed in The Century:
 A year and a half later circus rider entered his village. Desiring to see the show, Gurando Kuen, on his fathers arm, entered the place. Pointing to the horse he insisted on riding it himself His father consequently asked the circus rider to let his boy ride. Gurando Kuen. showing ill his face perfect satisfaction, rode on the neck of the horse and ap- Npeared as if he was persuading the horse to go One day, when he was older, he was playing ball by his own house, and he accidentally broke glass window of his neighbor.

mestic relations. Two of his daughters are the wives of J. A. Mays and w. M. Graham respectively; his elder son, Paul, is studying law; Edward, the sec ond son, is d bright boy at school, and two more daughters, Laura and Julia, are still little girls.
 Jones was born ill Alabama 48 years ago, and us a boy of IA fed when Sher- mans army poured into Georgia on the march to the sea. After the war Jones became a lawyer and was making his mark when liquor wrecked him. He lost his practice and impaired his health and was compelled to drive a dray and work in iron mines to support his fam fly. Finally he conquered his appetite for strong drink, was converted ill 1872 and preached his first sermon at Felton chapel, near Gainesville. JoSes, who was then teamster, visited the church, and as the regular minister did not ap- pear Jones stepped into the pulpit and preached remarkable sermon. For ten years he was Methodist circuit rider, and at the great revival in Memphis in 1883 first attracted national attention.
