non-political by virtue of it's constitu-
tion. The present chief local officers
are: Master, Clayton Holl;. secretary,
Samuel Correll; treasurer, H. Schnive-
ly.
Stark county was at one time the
leader in Granger affairs in Ohio and,
outside OF Canton, there is stin more
active work going on, new Grangers
being established and old ones increas-
Ing membership. Grange No. 2, in
Plain township. was the first establish

The general object of the order is the
mutual protection and advancement of
the interests of the agricultural classes
and Its reports this week on trusts,
railways and agricultural commerce
are waited with interest by politicians,
who recognize in 1t powerful factor,
as 1t has already brought about much
favorable legislation by its efforts.
The order was first established in
1857 succeeding short-lived organiza-
tion called Patrons of Husbandry.

Host of Friends to Mourn His
Demise-- High In Secret
Ordprg,

Mr.. John Burns, who during six
years landlordship of the Barnett house,
this city, formed an immense circle of
acquaintances, died at seven o'clock
this morning at his home in Lima, o.
The cause of his death is not known,
but his friends suppose it to have come
from a complication arising from
Bright's disease, with which he has
been sufferer for long time.
At the time of his leaving Canton for
Lima, in 1894, there was probably not a
better known citizen in Canton and the
news of his death causes profound sor-
row.
Mr.. Burns came from Akron to Can
ton in 1888, and, since leaving here, has
operated the Burnet at Lima until the
rebuilding II that house commenced
since which he has temporarily engeged
in other business. His long connection
with hotels in different cities gave him
wide acquaintance with travelling men
with whom he was universally popular
Mr.. Burns was almost As years of age

child. He was a 80 degree Mason, a
Knight Templar and a member of sew
eral other orders.
The funeral arrangements are not
yet completed.

MORE POLICEMEN
Are Wanted In Alliance to
Properly Take Care of
the City.

Alliance is beginning to agitate for
more policemen. The city has only two
on duty at night and none in the day
time. The mayor makes this plaintive
complaint in the matter. He says:
Saloon keepers are growing very reck-
less in Sunday selling in the day time;
there ought to be a day policeman, who
would gather testimony and file COM
plants against Sunday violations
There ought also to be night police
man to collect testimony against houses
of i'll fame, and gambling rooms and
gambling devices. AS matters are
now. there is no police In day time and
only two at night for all around duty
leaving no one for special duties such
as before named, yet of the utmost i'm
portance.

.DEWEY'S PICTURE
WAS KISSED
Popular Disapproval of His
Course Was Shown.
DECIDED AVA,
And the People of washington Are Much
Incensed About It-One Woman
Says She Wants Her
Money Back,

GNews-Democrat Leased Wire Service ]
Washington, Nov. 21.-For the first
time the picture of Admiral Dewey was
Kissed last night by a Washington au-
dience. Before this it has always been
met with cheers. This occurred at the
Grand opera house where the biograph
is feature of the bill. The only as
signable cause for the kissing is the
popular disapproval Of the transfer Of
the gift to the admiral, by popular sub
scription, to his wife, which was con-
sumated yesterday. Popular feeling
here is aroused at the transfer. The
contributors declaring that they gave
their money to buy home for the ad-
miral, and not for his wife who owns
property that brings to her annually
three times the admirars income. One
woman, who is a clerk in the treasury
department, has written to the admiral
asking the return of her contribution
of S. because the gift has been diverted
from its proper destination.

Paterson, N. j., Nov. 21-Vice-Presi-
dent Garrett A. Hobart died at $3.50
o'clock this morning.
Mr.. Hobart's condition began to
change for the worse late yesterday af-
ternoon. At 10 o'clock last night he
sank into deep sleep. Shortly before
midnight he suddenly awoke and spoke
to Mrs. Hobart. The vice-president
then became unconscious and remained
in a comatose condition during the bal
ance of the night. DR.. Newton as
cribes the cause of death to heart fail
ure. At his bedside when he passed
away were Mrs. Hobart, Garrett A. Ho-
bart Jr., Dr. Newton and his wife and
Miss Alice Werdwell, the nurse. Mrs.
Hobart is bearing up well. No arrange
ments have yet been made for the fun
eral, but this will likely be attended to
later in the day. AS soon as the vice.
president expired, message an
nouncing his death was sent to Presi-
dent A.cKinley.
THE NATION MOURNS.
Washington, Nov. 21.--As soon as the
news Of the death of Vice-President Ho-
bart was received in Washington, steps
were taken to show the respect of the
government to the memory of the dis
tinguished dead. The white house was
closed to visitors and the flag was low
cred to half mast. All the flags on
other public buildings followed the ex-
ample. The secretary of state called at
the white house as soon as he heard the
sad news. SenatorFairbanks and ex-
Secretary Foster also called, and ex-
pressed to the president their sympathy
for the loss of his colleague. The sad in
telligence bore hard on Mrs. Mckinley.
She had been more intimate with the
family of the vice-president than any
other in the city. She broke down and
gave way to an outbreak of sobs. AS
soon as the president could do SO, he
sent a message of coincidence to Mrs.
Hobart.

The conspicuous part likely to be
played in national affairs in the future
by the National Grange. as a result OF
their proceedings and resolutions In
convention at Springfield, Ohio, this
week. has aroused a new interest In the
order.
In Canton, for a number of years, the
order has been so quiet that there has
been an impression that 1t was, locally,
thing of the past. The fact that the
local members are unrepresented at the
national convention might lend color to
this idea, but 1t is not the case. There is
local grange, and while 1t is small
and inactive in comparison with years
gone by, the members are just as en-
thusiastic in their belief in the aims.
objects and methods of the original or
ganization. AS stated, the local grange,
No. S05, is quiet, but 1t preserves its
organization and maintains it's lodge
rooms in the Mckinley hall, even II
meetings are rare.
Its membership has dwindled from
over one hundred to thirty-five, but an
increase is confidently looked for from

BY AID OF DEATH LISTS
1t Is Claimed He Used the Mails
For the Purpose of
Fraud.
Special to News Democrat.

Chicago, Nov. 21.-Marvin A. Fuller,
who, it is alleged, for some time carried
on a business under the name "The
Alaska Commercial Mining Company"
was arrested by postoffice detectives
on November IL. Fuller is charged
with using the mails for purposes of
fraud. 1t is claimed he watched the
newspapers for death lists and upon
hearing the name and address of the
decendent communicated with the heirs
stating that mining shares belonging
to them had been turned over to him.
He would claim that $50 or more was
due on the stock. In many cases, 1t is
alleged, the heirs, thinking the shares
OF possible great value, paid the as
sessment, only to receive mining stock
of no value. The case was put on trial
today. The exposure was brought
about through an attempt to swindIe
the widow of the late CONGRESSMAN
Richard Bland.

bana mob of colored people, scheduled
to arrive at West Liberty to avenge the
outrage of Nell Jackson, Ed. Jackson
and David Hickman, Monday, did not
appear. The people were up all night
on guard and everybody had a gun.
Watch fires were burning. The vigi-
lence will not be relaxed for while.
Jackson and Hickman are doing well.
The woman is still in great pain. All
will recover. There was no acid thrown
as was reported, and the powder did
not destroy anyone's sight.
