REAL ESTATE
MARKET REVIEW
Much Capital Seeking In
vestment in Downtown
Property.
Two Important Sales in the
Who esale and Retail Dis.
tricts Reported.
B ds r ceiv By Collector w Sc for
the Clearing of the Ground for
the New Postoffice.

The totals of another months business
show an Improvement in the real estate
market as well as in the building trades
This is brought bout in the first place by
the inclination of strong capital to secure
good investments on the main thorough
fares which has been followed, as usual,
by investments in smaller properties. I'm
proved real estate showing good earning
is in fair demand and can be sold very
close up to the full market price. The de-
sirability OF modern places of business and
up-to-date residences has brought de-
mand for the better class of vacant prop
critics.
TIE i'm mediate outlook for realty affairs
is certainly quite promising. No doubt
the important factor in this evidence of
better times is that the owners of prop
erty generally are inclineG to fall in with
the tide of improvement which seems to
be in the air. 1t has been shown very
clearly that where property holders are
prepared TO improve their streets and put
their property il order market can be
created, the property in this manner be-
comes available for improvement, which leads
finally 10 an income.

came to his aid in the shape of a com bina ton
of medicines that not only completely restored
the general health, but enlarged his weak,
emaciated parts to natural size and vigor, and
he now declares that any man who will take
the trouble TO send his name and address may

bitions OF Photographs of Nude
Figures.

The Judge instructed Secretary Kane to

pictures such as these should be publicly
exhibited, more particularly TO children.
for one viii do all in my power TO pro-
tect the rising generation from having
their minds polluted in this way. 1t has
bad effect upon children, and for the
morality OF the City must be suppressed"

CAUGHT ON A SHAFT.
Horrib e Death of the Engineer
of the Schmidt Label
Company.
While Repairing a Belt He Was
Caught in the Machinery and
Instantly Killed.

Dettleson J. Einfeldt, engineer of the
Schmidt Label Company's works at %
Main street, met with a horrible death
yesterday morning. Through his own
ras hness he was caught upon a shaft and
almost torn TO pieces.
He had worked little while last Sun
day Iacing some belts that had worked
loose. and when the machinery started up
yesterday morning he found that he had
overlooked one belt. The belts are fas-
tened to pulleys on a shaft in pit about
five feet below the floor of the basement,
and without stopping the machinery he
crawled into the pit, took the belt off the
pulley and proceeded 10 lace it. There
was hardly room enough in the pit for his
body, and it is supposed that his coat
caught by the shaft, and he was whirled
pit until be was almost dismem bered.
None OF the workmen saw him enter the
pit, and the first in tim alton they received
that any thing was wrong was when they
heard strange humping noise below.
The machinery was at once stopped, and
the mangled body of the engineer was
found. One arm had been torn off, an
other was hanging by a shred and both
legs were severed from the body.
Coroner's Deputies Smith and Hallet
placed the remains in the Morgue wagon.
The grewsome task occupied half an hour.
The deceased left widow and resided
at II Belvedere street.

At the Interstate Civic Philanthropic
Conference, held at Battle Greek,
Mich, last week, the Rev. S. Sherin,
of Chicago, and secretary of the con-
ference, created great sensation,
His subject was How to Drain the
Social Swamp" He said the social
sewer is the greatest evil of today
In christianity should lie the cure, but
the organized Christian church is II
failure, only per cent. of the world is
touched by Christianity. Plans to
head the wrong must be as broad as
the wrongs are. Intemperance is
thriving despite the effort of the
church. More beer and whiskey are
being consumed than ever before.
The w. G. T. U. was organized and
sent thrill through the land, but it
has gone into political trickery,
and will never put down the traffic.
The Y. NJ. G. A. meant to do good, but
it is worldly. 1t ought to be buried,
it is but a corpse. As a philanthoopic
movement it is fraud. Though as Il
club it is entertaining. There are
quarrels over officers ETC., but no real
good done.

tor for the southern district of New
York has sent to the Secretary Of the
treasury his resignation. He says that
in his opinion based on years of prac-

the chinese exclusion ac; is farce,
and has resulted in the corruption of
the treasury department. He says
fraud exists and that he has good
reason to believe that men in the EN-
ployment and confidence of the govern.
ment are making $4,000 year from
the alleged importation of Chinese.

A COMMUNICATION.

As there is to be an election
for the purpose of getting an express
ion on the question of local option, |
would like to say few words on that
subject. The writer has on all prev
ious occasions voted in favor of the
ordinance, but after a thorough trial
of more than ten years, we have be-
come satisfied that prohibition laws do
not prohibit the sale of liquor. 1t only
drives the traffic from one place to
another, under the guise of selling
soft drinks and other pretenses. There
has always been places where drink
could be obtained, and the ordinance
simply protects such places against the
payment of the Dow tax of which the
village should receive its share.
Again, why should We expect to make
a garden of Eden out of little spot of
earth like the village of Wellington,
surrounded as we are by places where
they make no attempt to prohibit the
traffic, thus taking trade away from
here that properly belongs to us, 1t is
time for us to have prohibition laws
when our neighbors adopt it, We have
stood almost alone in this section for
ten years and have seen tr,de drift
away in consequence of it. Others
have tried it and long since given it up
while we have held on to the detri.
ment of business and the growth oI
our town, out of mere sentiment. The
sale of liquor in itself is not crime as
some people would have you believe
1t is as legitimate as selling dry goods
when conducted in accordance with
the law. The United States govern
ment recognizes it as legitimate bust
ness and derives great revenue from
it. Also does the state of Ohio, and al
other states for that matter now, fo
when they have tried state prohibition
it has proven failure. Look at tn
revenue other places receive from TIN
tax, take Elyria, she receives enougl
each year to pay for her electric lights
and in the last few years has grow
from village to a city. 1t is impossi
BILE to run state and village affairs on
Sunday School plan and succeed.
We must broaden out and recogniz
the rights of all. Therefore, as bus
mess proposition, for the good Of ou
town, let us repeal the ordinance, tr
the other plan, get the tax and appl
it to good use, and reduce taxes. The
place them under proper restrictions
and there will be no more drinkin
than there is now.

ing would be different in each denom-
ination. In order that the three

very prominent. The members pres
ent were highly pleased with this plan
