A Fire Sunday Morning in North
Rex Street That Might Have
Been Serious.

An alarm of fire from box 26 at the
intersection of Cherry street and Penn
sylvania avenue summoned the fire de-
partment Sunday noon to the residence
of George Burk, at S07 North Rex street.

the fluid when the gasoline overran the
tank and spilled upen the part Of the
stove where a Jet was burning. The fire
was reported out before the firemen ar
rived at the house. and their services
were not required. Mr.. Burk had his
hand somewhat burned, but not serious
ly. The stove was dragged out Of the
house before the flames could COM
municate with the building and create
damage. Hose companies and I res
sponded with the centrals.

Successful Advertising.

The secret of successful advertising
consists in keeping your establishment,
OF the wares you have to sell, continu-
ously before the eyes Of the purchasing
public. All the great advertisers of the
country never cease reminding you Of
their existence and that they are al
ways ready to serve you. Their names
and the nature Of their business are
continually before you In the great
daily and weekly publications Of the
country, and the moment you open the
newspaper containing their announce
ment your eve rests upon the adver-
tisement which may tell you Of the mer-
its Of some article you wish to buy. It's
keeping everlastingly at it, that brings
success, In advertising as well as In
anything else. 5E

that they must furnish and put into
the jury wheel $50 names of Stark
county citizens, distributing the names
over the county according to popula-
tion. The court wanted the best men
in the county. He said that the COM
mission should not look too much to
the question as to whether it was con-
venient for the man to go and serve on
the jury. 1t was not necessarily true
that because man had no business OF
his own nor never had any that he
would make a good juryman to decide
about other peoples business.
The commission was instructed that
attorneys, public officials, preachers

men over 70 years old are to be exempt
ed from jury duty. Bank cashiers and
foremen Of shops were also commended

COLUMBUS BUDGET.
RatchfOrd Makes His Report
Other Matters of General
Interest.
(Staff Specially

Columbus, May 2S.-An advance copy
of the annual report of the United
States Industrial commission has been
received by State Labor Commissioner
Ratchford. The report recommends a
number of radical changes in the labor
laws with the view of improving the
condition of the working class.
The commission declares in favor Of
the enactment Of statute by all states
regulating the working hours Of all
persons between the ages of IA and 21
years. The employment Of children un-
der IA should be prohibited.
1t is recommended that eight hours
constitute days work in mines and for
underground work, excepting in cases Of
real necessity or emergency. A law
should be established requiring that all
labor be paid for in cash or cash order
without discount and that no compul-
sion be used, directly or indirectly. to
purchase supplies from any store.
Another paragraph provides for fair
weighing Of coal at the mines in order
that the operative will receive his just
due for labor performed.
Blanket injunctions are condemned
and ban is placed on the importation
Of convict made goods from one state
to another, unless the full consent of the
receptive state is given.
Congress is urged to formulate con-
sistent code regulating all matters per-
tanning to railway employment and COW
ering accident cases.
The report says the arbitration laws
should be rendered less ambiguous and
that all labor disputes should be arbi-
trated. The commission thinks that
whoever inaugurates strike without
first petitioning for arbitration should
be subjected to penalty. The con-
| tending parties should choose arbitra-
| tors but should not be bound to abids
by the decision given.
Governor Nash will return Tuesday
from French Lick Springs, Ind. where
he has been resting during the past ten
days. On Wednesday he will deliver a
Memorial day address at Toledo.
The supreme court has adjourned un-
til June 5. Few cases were filed in the
supreme court last week.
The Ohio Coal and Clay company, Of
Washingtonville, Mahoning county, is

"SKNNED The CAT"
Alliance Story With Reference
to a Well Known Can
ton Man.

An Alliance paper has the following
story of well known Canton man:
Harry r. Lee, of Canton, cousin
of Captain T.. L. Gyger, was in Alliance
yesterday. He told of an amusing incl
dent that he had witnessed in q Can
ton street car Thursday afternoon while
on his way to the railway station. On
East Tuscarawas street Mr.. Joseph
Saxton entered the car. Everybody in
Canton knows Mr.. Saxton, who is an
uncle of Mrs. Mckinley. He Is 20
years old, but he is younger than many
men at 50-for 1t Is not years that makes
people old. He is as spry and as
frisky as a young lambkin.
The only person in the car besides
Mr.. Saxton were two or three gentle
men. He did not sit down but stood
in the aisle and took hold of the straps
on either side by which standing pas
sengers steady themselves. Suddenly
he made a spring with his feet and
skinned the cat" as neatly as ever did
a nimble youngster at school. Probably
there are few persons who do not know
what the exercise called "skinning the
cat' is. 1t is done by holding with
the hands, throwing the feet above the
head thus swinging entirely over alight-
ing upon the feet.
"There" he exclaimed, as he came
down upon the floor of the car, isn't
that pretty good for a man Of seventy?''
OF course the passengers laughed and
applauded with cries Of "Bravo!" II
did not matter that his hat flew off and
his ear trumpet-for he is quite deaf
and other loose articles about his person
fell to the floor. He gathered them UT
and then sat down, enjoying his little
prank as thought he had been school
boy in his teens.

FOREST RESERVE SCHEME.
A Government Agent 20 Report Upon
Reserve In Lincoln County.

A Government Agent 20 Report Upon n
Reserve In Lincoln County.
S. j. Holsingcr, representing the de-
partment Of the interior, will visit the
Mescalero Indian reservation and look
into the Feasibility Of placing the res
ervatlon or any part Of it, under forest
reserve. by a recent act of congress II
was declared the tract OF land now re-
SIDED upon by the tribe should be open
ed for settlement. In addition to h
reservation a thorough examination of
the territory embraced in and between
the Sacramento, the Captain and the
Sierra Blanca mountain ranges Is to be
made, with a view OF reporting also
upon the ACCESSIBILITY of declaring q
portion of 1t under forest reserve. The
territory comprises over 1000, 900 acres.
The plan of preserving this property
has already been investigated and re-
ported favorably upon by two of the
interior departments special agents,
the result OF which is a large collection
OF protests, maps, etc, were forwarded
TO Washington. Mr.. Holsinger has all
these papers, with instructions to make
a third inquiry.
In this investigation, the interests of
the people and government are ident-
cal, said Mr.. Holsinger. to a reporter
and the department Is by no mean
inclined to handle the territory in the
face OF the protests, unless the condi-
tons Justify il. In the Mescalero res
ervation there are many things to be
considered in determining whether the
forest and would be worth more pre-
served than used for agricultural pur-
poses. The other territory lies directly
around the reservation.
while in this section l intend also
to look into the Zuni reservation and
the adjoining country, over which there
Is no contention.
"Out in Arizona, the department has
ordered a complet survey OF the Grand
Canon reservation. lying in Flagstaff'f
territory. The idea is to establish per-
manent boundary lines, and from the
way the work is let by contract, | think
Il will be completed within 30 days
The stock interest is involved in this
work, yet there is no contention be-
tween cattle n sheep raisers."

James Brooks, the escaped prisoner
who was returned here yesterday by
Deputies johnson and Marshall, vas
arraigned before Justice Newcomb on
yesterday morning ON the charge of
larceny OF a horse. the property OF one
Tobin Chavez. of Hanover. Brooks
pleaded not guilty and his preliminary
hearing was set for Tuesday at 2 p
m, and his bond was liked at $1,000,
AT the last term of the district cour
Brooks was indicted for the larceny OF
a saddle from J.. 4. Rabb, but at the
time there was not sufficient evidence
to warrant the grand pury to indict him
for the larceny of the horse from Cha
veg. But since that time Deputy John
son recovered the stolen horse in Ari-
iona, and now believes that there Is
sufficient evidence TO convict Brooks,
Apparently Brooks seems unconcerneo
over the case, having already express
ed himself to the effect that there was
not sufficient evidence to bind him over
In all his difficulties Brooks always
maintains hat he il entirely innocent
and is being prosecuted by some one
He is also accustomed to making num-
erous threats against his alleged per
secutors, which he says he viii carry
