WANTED ADMITTANCE.
Drunk and Lettering the Charge
Against a Man That Wanted
in the Chapel.

Dayton Coyle, of East Tuscarawas street,was
arrested by Officer Ryan yesterday afternoon
and brought to headquarters in the patrol
wagon. Coyle claims he called with his wife
and another woman at the workhouse to at
tend services in the chapel of that institution
and was met at the door by Superintendent
Pontius, who refused him admittance as no
visitors were permitted to visit the chapel or
other parts of the building that day. Coyle
it is alleged, thereupon became abusive and
Guard McCort placed him under arrest and
sent for the wagon. Superintendent POntius
called at the police station later and placed a
charge of drunk and lettering against Coyle
who had been released under bond for his ap-
pearance this evening at o'clock.

WANDERING BOY.
DAZED BY A FALL FROM A
STREET CAR.
After Wandering About for Some
Time He Failed TO Recognize Even
His Mother-WarninG to Boys
Who Jump on Street Cars.

Frank Riley, an eleven-year-old adopted
son of Mrs. Charlotte Sanor, living at los East
Seventh street, was seriously injured Sunday
afternoon. The lad attends First NJ. f. church
Sunday-schoOl, and Junior League meeting in
the afternoon. After the latter service yester-
day, young Riley and some other boys at
tempted to ride on the Massillon car, and at
Cleveland avenue he jumped off at the de-
mand of the conductor. The car was running
quite rapidly, and he fell on his head and
knees, and was rendered unconscious. Little
ROLAND Edmonds saw the accident and had
the boy carried to his home, where Mrs. Ed
monds bathed the wounds. The boy soon re-
gained semi-consciOusness and wanted TO GO
home. He could not remember where he
lived or give any distinct information,
but his associates, who knew nearly where he
resided, took him to East Eighth street and he
wandered into Frank Henderson's boarding
house where he was later recognized by a
boarder.
Mrs. Sanor was sent for but the boy did not
recognize her, and she was so frightened about
his condition that she could not suppress her
grief The boy was soon taken home and DR..
Schilling was called. He examined the
wounds and rendered medical attention.
The little boy is found to be suffering with a
fractured skull. He was taken to the Aultman
hospital, and an operation is being performed
this afternoon.

LAW VIOLATED.
MAYOR RICE SAYS ACTION WILL
BE TAKEN
In Case Where a Young Man Was
Injured While Trying to Get Out
of a Saloon at an Early Hour
Sunday Morning.

The saloon kept by Louis Greenwald, at No.
90 East Tuscarawas street, was the scene of
big row Sunday morning at O'Clock.
Charles Isler, of Van Buren street, in the
South End, came up town to see the sights,
and at the hour named visited the Greenwald
saloon in company with two men named Ite
and Hagerman. Several games Of dice were
played by the men, and it is claimed the bar
tender demanded pay for the games played
before beginning another. Isler objected to
this arrangement, ard it is alleged the bar
tender struck him blow in tie face with a
beer glass, and jumping over the counter, pro-
ceeded to follow up the first blow. Isler, tho
roughly frightened, and daz,d by the blow he
had received broke away fiom his assailant
and leaped headlong through the glass Of the
front door. His right leg was caught by some
Of the sharp points Of glass, and he hung sus-
pended from the cutting points until released
by his companions. He was taken to ply
sician's Office and several wounds, from which
the blood freely flowed, were sewed up, and
the injured man was then sent home.
Officers Brisbin, Hasler and Battin arrived
shortly after the fracas, but made no arrests,
One of the cuts was dangerously close to the
femur artery, which, if severed, would have
undoubtedly caused the young mans death
before the arrival of surgical assistance.
That an affair Of this kind should have hap.
pened Sunday morning caused much comment,
and the law.abiding saloon.keepers of the city
are indignant as reflections are cast upon them
by the acts of others in the business.
Mayor Rice stated, in an interview this
morning, that the affair was q most fagrant
violation of the law. and proceedings would,
without doubt be instituted against the inter.
ested persons.

A GREAT CIRCUIT.
What the Cleveland Sportsman Has to
Say With Reference to Races
to be Pulled OFF Here.

The American Sportsman, Gen. Sher-
woods Cleveland publication, has the fol-
lowing with reference TO the @. ii. a. ID.
circuit, of which Canton is a member:
"The advertisement of the @. II. & ID.
circuit, one Of the best and strongest ever
organized in Ohio, appears in this i'm
preston. This circuit includes six i'm
portant Ohio cities starting at Celina,
near the western boundary, and ending
at Canton, within fifty miles of the Penn
sylvania line Some s27, are offered
in purses. The opening meeting at Celina
is only thirty days hence, and the entries
for that meeting close on Monday, May
25. Dayton follows Celins, and entries
also close for Dayton on the same date.
Sidney takes the week after Dayton,
for which entries close Saturday, May 30.
Lima follows Sidney, with date for clos
ing entries Monday, June Z. Fostoria
takes the week following, for which en-
tries'close June .. The circuit will end
at Canton, on Saturday, the Fourth of
July, hence the four days racing in Can.
ton will not start until Wednesday, July 1,
and entries will not close until Tuesday,
June 90. Attention is called to the gen.
eral conditions set out sucoinctly by
the circuit secretary, A. B. Correll, OF
Canton. The rules of the American will
govern at all points except Canton, which
recently Joined the National. Dayton an
nounces special conditions. The entrance
fee at Dayton is per cent, which should
accompany nomination, with . per cent.
additional from the four money winners.
The classes are not uniform throughout
the circuit, but the variance is not SO
radical that any good stable cannot find
plenty Of business at every city in the
circuit. For instance, Celina, Dayton,
and Canton give 2:24 trot, while Sid,
ney gives 2:22 trot, Lima 2;25 trot,
and Fostoria 2:2O trot. Hence a trotter
with record of 2:24I4 would be eligible
throughout the circuit for class very
near his mark Holders of extreme speed
will,ind 2:1O and 2:15 pace at Celina
and 2:12 trot. Dayton offers s4OC
purse for free-for-all PAGERS, but gives
no trot below 2:1s. Sidney offers $500
for free-for-all trotters and $500 for free
for all PAGERS. Lima gives a 2:l0 pace
and 2:12 trot, each purse S400. Eos
toria offers the same. Canton offers q
s4OO purse to 2:1O PAGERS, with no trotting
purse slower than 2:19. The number oi
pacing events is worthy Of remark. OF
the sixty-seven purses announced, thirty
two are for PAGERS, and two other event:
are mixed, for both trotters and PAGERS
There is either e:40 or 2. 80 pace al
every point in the Giro nit except Celina
and either $50 or $500 trot at every
point. Race horsemen everywhere car
rest assured that this is one of the best
Ohio circuits ever organized, with al
good safe half-mile tracks. The Sidney
track record is 2:1O2l, and has to it,
credit the fastest six heats in the world or
