Bcecham Bids For klpllng MS.

Among those who have made
the highest bids for the original
manuscript of Rudyard Kipling's
poem, "The Absent-Minded Beggar, !"
which Is being sold for the benefit Of
the wives and children of the British
Reservists who have been ordered to
South Africa, is Mr.. Beecham Of st.
Helens, England, who offered $525
for 1t.
Mr.. Beecham's name is familiar to
every newspaper reader In America,
as he is proprietor of the famous
pills which bear his name. In addi-
ton to being lover of things artis-
tic, he is also most public
spirited man. The great nanufac-
turing center of st. Helens, of which
his enormous factory Is one Of the
largest industries, recognized his
good service to the town by electing
him recently to the niayoralty,
backed by the unanimous petition
of the municipal council of st.
Helens. Without doubt that execu-
tive ability which has assisted him
so materially in building up his vast
enterprise will be Of great service
to his fellow townsmen.

What The Real Estate Men Are
Predicting.

There is q brisk movement in the
real estate lying between Akron and
Barberton, and property owners are
beginning to put up their prices in
anticipation of the two towns being
united some day.
Mr.. w. II. Johnston, of Barberton,
who recently purchased a large tract
of land included in the Foust farm,
just west of the Erie tracks, has Just
purchased IS acres from A. J. Trip
lett, the land fronting on the rail
ways and the Akron and Manchester
road at Halo. The consideration was
$4,000.
The land referred to is less than
half mile from the Akron yard lin
its and would afford very convenient
sites for manufacturing or residence
purposes.
Mr.. Johnston declines to disclose
the purpose Of his latest purchase,
but it is likely to be more for good
investment than anything else. Lo-
cal real estate men do not hesitate
to predict that Akron and Barberton
will be practically one city within
few years.

Miss Mamie mcoayid Lose, Two rIno.,.

Miss Mamie McDavid met with a bad
accident, Monday afternoon. at the Ed
wards cotton mill, by which she lost
the index and the second fingers of her
right hand. She was at work on one
OF the carding machines when in some
way her right hand was caught by the
frame setting securely against it. Those
about rushed to her assistance after
stopping the machine and endeavored
to free her from her painful position,
but the frame could not be moved to
release the hand. For nearly three
quarters of an hour they worked upon
the machine. and finally, had to tear
1t into pieces to release her. All the
while she bore up bravely under the
terrible pain. She was at once taken in
team to the office of DR.. Martin where
the two fingers We're removed. The
thumb was very badly jammed but not
enough to make amputation necessary.

mornings, by Marshal Morse and his
men. On Sunday morning there were
80 of the men who were from all parts
of the United States, SO they said. and
though the breakfast was not of the
Delmonico style, they went into it IN
much the same manner that pack of
monkeys will grab lat any morsel of
food. Marshal Morse made up four
gallons of strong coffee, which he
served to them without any sugar or
milk. He had several pounds Of
bologna sausage all cut up. and then
there We're 200 crackers. At the ap-
pearance of officer Mcdonald with the
sausage there was rush and each
man was in the act of taking SO much
that it. would not last to go more than
quarter the way around. The officer
soon put a stop to this. however.
When 1t came to the coffee course each
man though he was entitled to fully a
quart of the beverage and many
growled because there was only
four gallons 10 80. In regard to
the crackers they were not so ravenous,
as they did not appreciate them so
well. The menu at the suppers served
by the efficient managers of the station
and cheese. There is never any protest
that it is not sufficient, and the way
the men will go at the bountiful repast
is a caution.
