WILL. lie CHALLENGE?

Will he challenge the Ex-American
and demand satisfaction after the code?
The clubs are ponderng this question.
Should he do so the opinion Is expressed
here that Mr. Astor must accept and let
the capita n name the weapons, or make
such explanation of the uninvited
guests conduct at the concert as would
enable him u decline a meeting.
Comment centres upon this point
What did the Captain do?" There Is
no answer. Had he merely strayed in
TO the Astor house unbidden 1t would
surely not have been necessary TO set
forth that unpleasant faSt in print,
since no good end would be served
thereby.
In London's search for the meat of
the matter 1t Is motel that Mr.. Astor,
in his publication. took pains to mem

dilly," while Sir Archibald Berkeley
Milne is member OF many other
clubs. some of which outrank this one
in the estimation of swelldom.
MAY BE A COME BACK"
This has led the most daring of club
men, seeking an explanation of the af-
fair. to intimate that perhaps Mr..
Astor once sought membership in the
one club with which he couples the
captains s name and may perhaps have
been rejected by it's members. Had
this been. the case and had Mr.. Astor
pocketed the affront TO await good
chance to retaliate, the now famous
Pail Mall paragraph would be explain
ei in part at least.
Even the newspapers make caustic
comment upon Mr. Astor's reference
to the Naval and Military club and ask
what he meant by it. seeing that clear
ly enough his quarrel with Captain
Milne was with an Individual and not
with an organization.
The club IL is said here. awaits some
air clearing action by the captain.

vsnia with the Inaug uration OF Their
Summer schedule on
May 2Tth.

With the Inauguration of the new
Wayne and Chicago railroad which will
go into effect on the 9th of this month,
two new fine trains will be added to the
equipment. These trains will be known
as Nos. 20 and 21 and will be finely
equipped and highly scheduled. These
trains will replace Nos. % and 25, the
most popular trains ever run on the
Fort Wayne and which were taken off
several months after the Worlds Fair.
These trains, 1t will be remembered 4,
were called the Royal Reds" Con-
cerning the new change the Lima Times
Democrat has the following:
No. 20 will leave Chicago at y m,
central time, and arrive in New York
at 2:30 the following day, eastern time,
making the running time. including
stops. twenty-six and a half hours. No
21 will leave New York at 1855 p. M,
eastern time and arrive in Chicago al
1855 p. M, central time, covering the
distance between terminals in twenty.
six hours. With the addition of these
trains the Pennsylvania will have the
best passenger service between Chicago
and New York. With the coming OF
the new trains will come the promotion
Of some trainmen and possibly it will
be necessary to make a considerable
change along the line.
According to this No. 20 eastward
would pass through Canton about II
o'clock in the evening and No. 81, west
bound for Chicago, would leave abou
6 o'clock in the morning. The proposed
change will be hailed with delight b,
many Cantonians, who have been wish
ing for the return Of the Royal Reds.

In 1851, in the section west OF the
Alleghanies and north of the Ohio, the
Democratic party had been crushingiy
defeated. In many states its vote was
less than that Of the Populists. Eyen
in Ohio, the easternmost of these states,
its vote had fallen from 404 900 cast for
President Cleveland in 1892 to 276, coo
1884. Iu 1896 the vote for Mr.. Bryan in
Ohio rose to 477 900, or II, 900 more than
the vote by which President Harrison
had carried the state iu 1902. Nor did
this gain of 200, 600 votes mark the ful!

wrought. Thousands of Democrats

Otto Mears, fresh from the national
capital, is Inclined to be, rather pessi-
mistlc as to the Republican outlook this
fall in Colorado. He considers New
York the pivotal state in the campaign
aud is inclined to the belief that it will
roll up minority for Pesident Mckin-
ley. AIR Mears said:

cerned-but there is the rest of the

Mr. Mears is interested in the Lake

pushed until after he sees who will be
president for the next four years.
In handsome summer suit which
was mate to the one which, Thomas
III. Tulley, private secretary to the
governor, had on, and with one of those

Crushed Stone Kisses the Waves

From the ways upon which 1t was
built on the south bank of the Chris

f.his morning at O'Clock sharp. The
Anna was christened by Miss Florence
Fahey, daughter of Admiral Patrick
Fahey, of the fleet, and under whose
nautical eye the lines and proportions
of the Anna we're constructed. Unlike
her sister ship, Edith, which craft
turned turtle on several occasions and
finally hogged and was sent to the ma

yard, the Anna promises to be q win

when her red-painted timbers kissed
the bosom of the river she righted and
rode like a cork in her own swell.
Within a few days the entire fee
