STRANGE HALLUCINATION.
Freaks of the Imagination of an
Osnaburg Storekeeper--
Queer Case.

The strange actions of George Leibtag, a
merchant of Osnaburg, are attracting consid-
cradle attention Mr.. Leibtag is the proprie-
tor Of a grocery. OF late he has been imagin-
ing that he has two stores and two homes
Abeut six O'Clock every evening he remarks
that he must go to his other store. His broth
er then has to hitch up the team and take the
man circuitousFoute out of Osnaburg and
back ag in. When the state read is reached
on the home stretch and Osnabug comes into
sight again, Mr. Liebtag is perfectly satisfied
and thinks he is at his other home. When
the same store is reached that he left an hour
before, the man thinks 1t is the other store.
When he awakens in the morning everything
is all right again and the other store is not
mentioned until night. Then the same pro.
gram has to be gone over. Several times the
man has loaded up goods for his other store
and after driving around for awhile. brought
the goods back to the place he started from
and unloaded them, firmly believing it was
another place.

WONDERFUL OPERATION.
A Woman's Skull Opened, Brain
Lifted Up and Muscles Cut
From the Face,

DR.. J. s. Pyle assisted by Drs. Harmount,
House and Kelley performed a very delicate
operation at the Aultman hospital yesterday
morning. Mrs. William Lehnis of PIG East
Tuscarawas street, has been suffering for the
past six months with very severe attack of
trifacal neuralgia. The left side of her face
was so badly affected that if she started to talk
it would cause her intense pain. 1t was de-
cided to remove the muscles which caused the
pain, as an only means of atiording relief. A
"V'' shaped piece of the scalp was laid back
extending from the base of the ear
to the eye, and up to about two inches over the
eye and back to the ear. The skull was then
drilled through and pulled back, leaving the
brain exposed. The brain was.lifted and this
exposed the trifacial muscles. These were cut
off and removed the brain let down IN posi-
tion, and the bones of the skull pushed back.
Tn, scalp was then sewed up. The patient is
feeling well this morning and the neuralgia is
Entirely gone. This is only the sixth time
this operation has been performed in the
United States, and then 1t has only taken place
in New York and Philadelphia.

ADMITS HIS GUILT.
t. G. Putnam Don't Deny His Illegal
Acts But Says Others
Are Also GniItY.

The article in last nights News regard
ing the manner in which Inflrmay Direc-
tor Il. O. Putnam has been running
things, caused decided stir. 1t is ad-
mitted on all sides that the selling of the
cattle to the infimary was illegal, as the
law Is very plain. The attempt to conceal
the transaction by issuing the order in
the name of Perry Ranals, and then al
lowing Mr.. Putnam to draw the S403. 95
In the name of Ranals, who had no knowl-
edge Of the transaction, clearly shows that
the parties implicated knew they were en-
gagged in a business that was not in ac-
cordance with law
Prosecutor Bow now has the matter
under advisement, and when seen by a
News reporter this morning said no writ
ten complaint had been made TO him, and
he had not as yet decided how he would
act. He intimated that it was hardly
probable and steps toward criminal
prosecution would be taken until the next
session of the grand jury, unless some one
fled an affidavit II is possible, however,
that no will institute civil proceedings to
recover In accordance with the law.
Mr.. Putnam makes no attempt to deny
that he sold the cattle TO the inhrmary,
but seeks to excuse his action ON the
ground that other infrmary directors have
done the same thing In fact he claims
that almost every person who has held
the office has violated the same law.
II is also urged that the inflrmary need
cd cattle, and had no money with which to
mako the purchases and Mr.. Pullman very
kindly consented TO walt few months
for his pay. The law has been Violated,
aud It remains 10 be seen what action win
be taken

HELD FOR FORGERY.
A Man Who Tries to Play Sharp
Tricks Gets Into Serious
Trouble.

Edwin Haley is the name given by q
man who was arrested last night by
Patrolmen Hossler and Tice for forgery.
Yesterday man who gave his name as
Harvey Gray called at the boarding house
of j. W. Bevington, III East Tuscarawas
street, and presented what purported to
be an order for board, signed by Charles
Belden, of the Canton Stoneware COM
pany.
The man was taken In and came TO the
house for dinner. Mr.. Bevington became
suspicious and questioned the new board
or closely. He claimed to be working at
the pottery works, and said he had been
boarding at Waco, but was Obliged to
change as his former landlady had decided
not to keep any more boarders. After
dinner Gray left but returned in time for
supper In the meantime Mr.. Bevington
telephoned out to the works, and ascer-
tained that Mr.. Belden knew no such
man as Gray, and had not given an order
for board to anyone.
Had 1t not been for the fact that Gray
got to his meals in such remarkably
short space of time after the whistle blew
he could probably havebecured board for q
week before the forgery was discovered.
When told that Mr.. Belden did not know
him Gray said there must be some mis-.
take, and he would go out and investi
gate. The officers were in waiting, how
ever, and placed him under arrest, wheI
he gave his name as Edwin Haley anG
said he recently came here from Cleve
land.
Prosecutor Bow will be consulted ant
1t Is probable the man will be held fol
forgery.
Later-Edwin Haley was allowed to pleat
guilty to obtaining board under false pretense
before mayor Rice and was sentenced to 81
days in the workhouse and pay the costs.

commissioner, and two representatives, and
we protest against placing another candidate
in the west end " said the speaker. "In. the
name of Justice we ask you not to load us down
with another candidate"
Mr.. Williams then lauded Mr.. Phelp to the
skies. and told whatan able man he WAS, and
how he had always supported the republican
ticket. His remarks were greeted with ap-
plause, but when he concluded there was con-
siderable laughter. No other names were pre-
sented, and the convention proceeded to ballot,

During the roll call it was announced that

MIR. wERNERs HANDS ARE CLEAN.

The republicans now realize that inGrmary
director T. c. Putnam has put his foot in it,
by selling cattle TO the infrmary, and then
drawing the money in the name of his hired
man. An attempt is now being made to
shield Mr.. Putnam by showing that some
other people have done the same thing.
The case of j. H. Werner who is member
of the board of wOrkhouse directors is cited, ii
being claimed that he has sold material to the
workhouse. The cases are not similar in any
particular. Mr. Werner did his business with
the county commissioners That body made
the contracts and paid the bills, the workhouse
directors having nothing 10 do with it, No
record of the transaction Icing found on their
minutes.
1t is time that the workhouse directors pur-
chased few disinfecting fountains from an
incorporated company in which Mr., Werner
owns some stock but Mr.. Werner would take
no part in buying the goods, allowing the
other directors to do as they saw fit.

THE VISITING BOARD.

The visiting board of charitable and correc-
tive institutions in Stark county visited the
workhouse and infrmary yesterday. Those
of the board present were: Mrs. c. M. Ever
hard, Massillon; Mrs. Cantine, of Alliance and
Mrs. Josiah Hartzell and DIR. c. p Amber, of
this city. The committee made a thorough
investigation Of the infirmary. Upon motion
of DIR. Amber it was resolved thatthe superin-
tendent aud matron of the infirmary be COM
mended for the excellent condition iD which
the infrmary and hospital are found. Stark
county should be proud Of the hospital at the
infrmary. The committee also visited the
workhouse and found everything there in the
usual perfect condition. But inasmHch as they
have sixty-two prisoners and only thirty-eight
cells, the committee would advise the fitting
up of more cell room. At present two prison
ers occupy most of the single cells one being
compelled to sleep upon the floor

CRAWFORD CLAIMS TT.
Says He is the Republican Nominee
For COmmissioner-Not
on the Slate.

Richard b. Cawford came over from
Massillon last night to look after his in.
terests in the nomination for county com.
missioner, and while 1t is generally re.
garded that he Is the nominee, 1t Is ex.
tremely doubtful If his name will appear
on the republican ticket this fall. 1t is
certain that 1t will not, If the gang in
charge can prevent such a thing taking
place.
Crawford Is not the choice of the little
gang OF Canton republicans that usually
dictate the slate. Their man Is James
Bown and they want him nominated II
remains to be seen whether they will win
or not, but judging by the past they are
usually successful. Brown claims the
nomination by three votes and the com
mittee seems inclined TO think that his
claim Is correct.
Mr.. Cawford was seen last night by a
News reporter, and stated that he was
nominated by two votes. He had been
on seven votes at Stands and as
no primary was held there this number
had to be deducted from his total, which
according to his figures still leaves him
two in the lead.
~ am confident have been nominat-
cd, F" remarked Mr.. Crawford, "and IL |
receive fair treatment l will be the repub-
lican candidate. The committee only
credits me with two votes at East Green
Vile, while got IL there. 1 have had
parties go over the returns who can figure
just as well as the other side and the re-
suit is as claim. Fair treatment is all
/ want. "
Chairman Eynon was seen this morning
by News reporter, and said the nomi-
nation was still in doubt, but that it
looked as II Brown had won by three
votes. He Is waiting to hear from East
Greenville, when the official announce
ment win be made
There Is little history connected with
the republican nomination for county
commissioner that will be interesting
reading at this time. 1t will DO remem-
beTed that Henry Leonard, OF Canton, had
announced himself as candidate for the
office. He suddenly withdrew, and it Is
now claimed that II was also agreed that
Brown should withdraw. This he failed
TO do, but continued TO hustle for votes.
The gang wanted him nominated, and
that Is why Leonard was forced out OF the
race,

ArRA1N wREcKER CAUGHT.

George Brown, boy 10 years old, is un-
der arrest in Massillon on the charge Of at
tempting to wreck Inter urban cars.
The attempts were always at Yingling's
hill, just east of Massillon. The police
investigated and by good detective worl.
arrested Brown. At the mayors Office
young Brown wilted completely and
admitted that he had, at three different
times attempted TO derail trains, When
asked what had prompted him to do
this the boy claimed that the electric
railway company had refused to pay
Yingling, the boys step-father for a cow
which had been struck and injured by an
electric car. Lucky Browns attempts at
wreoking were unsuccessful. Had the car
been derailed at the point where the OBJ
struotlons were placed 1t would have
rolled over an embankment fully thirty
feet high.
Brown is in Jail in default of bail. IL
Is the general impression that the boy
was simply tool and was put up to the
Job by elder persons. A complete inves-
tigatlon will be made
