CAPT. FISHER
FOR MAJOR
The Canton Company is Urging
His Selection.
NOT AN ANNOUNCED CANDIDATE
But the Boys Say He Would Not BE
Averse to the Honor and
Are Hustling For
Him.

Captain M. A. Fisher went to OFrville
Monday, to participate in meeting of
the officers of the National Guard which
is being held in that city. The objects
of the session are to discuss matters
pertaining to the future action of the
guards and the formation of the brigade
in (this state. An election of brigade
officers is to be held in which all the
officers representing the various COM
Columbus. A matter of paramount i'm
portance to local soldiers in the cleo
ton of a junior major for the forth
coming brigade, in which this city will
probably take an interest. The boys Of
Company c are anxious to have a Can
ton soldier represented on the staff of
brigade officers, and the company is
hustling for the election of Captain M
A. Fisher as junior major. The boys are
working quietly in the matter as Capt
Fisher has not expressed his desire to
run for election. But 1t is we'll known
that he would not refuse to act in that
capacity If he should be elected, as it
would be matter of honor thrust upon
him, and would bring several more Off
GERS with him to this city, which would
be made one of the battalion headquart-
ers. Other companies will be requested
to work in his behalf.
Captain Fisher has always been rec
ognized, by the soldier boys as at all
times working in their behalf, and dur
ing the discussion relative to the trip
to New York he worked hard and earn
estly to take the boys there. In other
way he has enlisted the respect of the
boys and they mean to repay him by
electing him junior major, if such a
thing is possible.

AN INNOCENT
BASKET OF GRAPES
Succeeding in Uniting the Des-
TIMES of Two People.
>MASSILLON MANS ROMANCE
MIR. Charles Leonard wins Fair New York
Maiden VINO Wrote An inscription
in a Grape Basket--will Re-
side In Massillon.

Special to News-Democrat.
Massillon, Dec. AIT high noon today
MIR. Charles NJ. Leonard, popular
young business man of this city, and
Miss Cora Mackie, of Smiths Mills
near Buffalo, N. Y, were united in
marriage at the ihome of the brides
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. William Mackie.
Thus was a pretty romance eliminated.
Mr. Leonard's father conducts a
grocery establishment at Crystal
Springs, this county. Six years ago
young Mr.. Leonard, who was in busi-
ness in this city, was visiting his
parents. One day he noticed small
basket of grapes among a shipment
just received at the store and needing
a basket of the size filled with grapes
he purchased It. Upon removing the
grapes he noticed some writing in the
bottom of the basket. A closer inspec-
tion revealed this inscription: Don't
be offended at the way these grapes are
Jpacked; the seasons crop is poor"
The name of the young lady who be-
Ecame bride today was attached.
Mr.. Leonard decided to write to the
young lady just in a spirit Of fun. The
more he thought of 1t the more intense
became his desire to hear again from
the fair one who was so solicituous to
explain why the grapes were not per-
feet. So one day he penned a missive
to the New York state village. He said
some nice things about the grapes
which he assured Mis- Mackie seemed
particularly lucious to him and explain
ed how the basket came into his pos
session. An answer came back and thus
correspondence started. Photographs
were exchanged and a warm friend
ship developed between the distantly
separated pair. The friendship slowly
but surely ripened into deeper feeling
and each desired to see and more fully
know the other. About six months
ago Mr. Leonard quietly left Massillon
and was soon at the side of the woman
he already loved. He was given a most
cordial reception at the Mackie home
and spent several days there. Miss
Mackie was all his heart desired and a
warm reciprocal feeling dwelt in the
heart of the young woman whose troth
was plighted and the hour was sci
when she would become the bride of a
stalwart Ohioan.
The wedding bells ring out in distant
New York today, and the unwilling
mission of basket of grapes is hap.
PLY accomplished. A host Of Massillor
friends will welcome the bride an6
groom, who will reside in this city, anC
wish them generous vintage of pros
perity and domestic felicity.
