Lsacox Bound Over.

Merton Leacox. arrested short time
ago upon the charge Of marrying Miss
Nora Bailey against her wish, whose
examination before Justice Gaylord at
this place was concluded on Thursday,
was bound over tn appear before the
next grand jury. His bond was fixed
at S25000, which falling to secure. he
was remanded to the county Jail. This
case is especially peculiar and unique
inasmuch as no case of corresponding
character appears upon the records oi
any court in the state, and numerous
features In connection with it, which
were developed during the examination
aud which we have neither the space o.
the disposition to describe, only served
to INTENSITY its peculiar phases.
1t is not the province Of Il newspape,
to discuss the merits Of case at law
prior to trial, and we therefore refrain
from comment, but We cannot well
eyade the statement that, public opinion
is Enthusiastically divided upon the ques
ton as to there being sufficient grounds
to base the charge with a reasonable
hope Of sustaining the same before the
circuit court. The evidence was as con-
hicting as it was revolving. and we can
only hope, while We envelop it with a
veil of silence, that We may never be
called upon to chronicle Its like again.

Custer Driving Park.

Charles Harbach, the owner of the
Custer Driving Park, located one halt
mile east Of this city, has recently leased
the same to j. +. Hale, prominent
horseman, for period of three years,
with the privilege Of purchasing a one
half interest in the property at stipu
lated sum at the expiration of the lease
Mr. Hale. being favorably impressed
with the advantages here offered for the
training of speed horses, has decided to
add such improvements TO the property
as will bring it up to standard of ex-
cellence that will compare ia, orably in
all of its appointments with the leading
tracks of the northwest. The course,
covering half mile. will be enclosed
by suitable exterior board fence, and
also fence of customary d sign along
the inner circle. Good and substantial
stalls for the accommodation Of horses,
grand stand for the use of spectators,
a Judges stand and an office for the
owner and manager will be erected. II
is estimated that no less than l2o,0OO
feet Of lumber will be r, quired in the
construction Of these improvements, all
of which will be completed at the earli-
est practicable day, the intention being
to inaugurate the work as soon as the
frost is out of the ground.
The advantages Of training horses in
this altitude is becoming well known to
eastern horsemen, and it is confidently
expected that number Of horses will
be brought here for that purpose during
the coming season.

Akron, Ohio, president and general
manager respectively Oft the Akron Min
ing. Milling and Manufacturing Co.
engaged for the past ten months in
completing arrangements for the manu-
facture Of axle grease upon commercial
scale at this place, and to whom the
CHRoNicLE is indebted for sundry calls,
arrived in this place on Monday. From
these gentlemen we learn that the delay
incident to the completion of the factory,
and the Inauguration Of operations has
been solely due to unavoidable causes,
which no longer exist, and that the ut.
most dispatch will be used hereafter in
the completion and operation of the
plant. While no definite time can be
stated, it is expected that the plant
will be running at it's full capacity some
time during the month of April. AS
previously stated. the company will
make elaborate experimental tests look
ing to the manufacture of various other
products in addition to that Of axle
grease, which, If found profitable, will
be continued upon large scale.
In relation to the establishment of ore
reduction works. as rumored here. and
reported in our Issue of last week, We
learn that. while the company has not
entertained any such intention, there
has been certain propositions submitted
by eastern parties, which contemplate
the erection by them Of such plant to be
operated by the surplus steam power
afforded at the factory, and that there
is a fair basis for hope for the erection
Of such plant, the factory company be-
