has been the central portion of the

home in the rich alluvial bottom lands
of the western streams and In the
stony limestone soils Of the hills and
mountains, and in such localities the
buyers have left few trees unsurveyed.
Throughout eastern Kansas, Missouri
and Arkansas, as well as the states
along the Ohio and its tributaries. may
be seen few logs at this little station,
car or two at that, with carefully
hewn sides and painted ends, ready for
the market.
If you ask where the market Is, you
will find that the great bulk of this
rare lumber goes to Europe.

ASSIGNMEN
Of S. E. Phinney.
Deed Was Filed Late
Monday Afternoon.
Liabilities In Excess of
the Assets.
Local Banks Hold Large
Amount of Paper.
Other Creditors Are Eastern Shoe
Manufacturers.

A deed of assignment, from S. r.
phinney to Francis Se:berling was
filed in Probate Court Monday after
noon at 4:55 o'clock.
The action was surprise to the gen
eral public, which had supposed that
Mr.. Pbinney was in good circumstan-
ces. His assets will not exceed $780,
600. The liabilities aggregate $4,000.
Local banks hold his notes for $685.
700. The only one secured is the First
National, which has mortgage for
$500 on ID lots in The Steiner addi-
tion. The other claims are Akron Saw
ings bank, $4,000; Citizens National
bank, $4,000; Second National bank,
$1,000.
The balance of the creditors are
Eastern shoe manufacturers and
wholesalers. The assignors assets
consist of the stock of shoes in the
store at ia South Main ST. and the lots
in the Steiner addition. Mrs. Phinney
owns the family residence on West
Market st. and the new block, occu-
pied as shoe store, The store is the
finest of the kind in Northern Ohio.
The financial difficulties of Mr.. Phin-
ney are of long standing. He lost a
large amount of money, number of
years ago, in silver mining ventures in
the west.
The assignee has given bond for
$4,000.

Matthew stumped for Wm. Goebel and

shot without provocatlon.

A Discarded American Timber

The great size often reached by this

Twenty-Five years ago walnut was
extensively used In the manufacture
of fine furniture and finishings in this
country, but manufacturers adroitly
drew attention to the beauty Of darkly
stained quartered oak. and the use Of
the rarer wood has greatly declined.
But all this time the search for fine
black walnut logs has gone on system

the history of the founding of the

Many Americans gladly acknowledge
their kinshlp with the Anglo Saxons
beyond the water, but we must remem-
Der that we are still more literally
cousins Of the great people to the north
OF us. For a century and a quarter
Canadians and Americans have inter
married freely, and the border cannot
divide ties of blood. Not long ago th4
dispatches from South Africa an
nounced the death OF Lieut.. Wood oil
Halifax the first Canadian to die fol
the British empire in the Boer war. II
is an interesting comment on our re
lations with Canada to note that this
young lieutenant was the great-great
grandson Of Zachary Taylor, who wa:
a major in the war OF 1912, and fought
against the British with all the zesi
for fighting that was in him, and that
his great-grandfathe was Jefferson
Davis, who, as a young man. married
Taylor's daughter. 1t is usually rep.
resented as runaway match, but Mr.
Davis himself wrote that 1t was moth.
ing Of the sort In spite OF such Am.
erican antecedents. Lieut. Wood llveJ
a loyal subject OF the queen, and died
for her maJesty's empire.
