The Two Ends Of tho Ticket Shake
Hands.
The Scene Was an In
spring One.
Nominees in Conference Most of
the Evening.

Canton, July 6.-The home city Of the
President today accorded to his colleague
on the Republican national ticket an
ovation almost unprecedented even in
Canton.
Governor Roosevelt arrived in Canton
at half past five, his only companions be-
ing the newspaper men who accompanied
him on his long trip to Oklahoma. The
yard of the Mckinley residence and the
streets adjacent were literally packed
with humanity When the governor
alighted from his carriage a tremendous
cheer burst forth. President Mckinley
was standing on the porch waiting with
outstretched hands to greet his associate
on the national ticket When they shook
hands the scene was inspiring indeed.
The assembIage was clamOrOus Tor
speeches and when something like quiet
was restored the President introduced
Governor Roosevelt in the following
words:
Il cannot express the pleasure it has
given me to see the generous welcome my
fellow citizens have given to Governor
Roosevelt and 1 now have the pleasure of
presenting MIN 10 you.
The Governor spoke briefly, but his
voice rang clear and loud AMI the great
crowd had no difficulty in hearing him.
He said:
81 cannot say how I appreciate this re-
ceptiOn coming as it does from the towns
men of the President who is now in a De-
culiar sense my leader, and whom I shall
follow and support with every ounce of
strength that there is in me. And, at
least there is to be said for our side that
we know what we believe. In Kansas
City they have had a little difficulty in
finding out what they believe. / see by
the papers that they had some difficulty
extending finally to a vote of 27 to % in
putting in free silver. "a YOice-'t they
have got to guess again.)
Now we believe with our faith in a
dollar worth a hundred CENTS Apparent
~ they have fifty per cent of faith in a
fOrty-eight cent dollar. -
The President and Governor then re- (
tired into the interior of the house but
the crowd was NO satisfled. The demand
for President Mckinley was so persistent
that at length the President stepped out
again upon the porch A great cheer
went up, which he silsnced with wave
of his hand.
Il only appear, . said the President
that l may say to you that 1 am going
to be with you most of the summer
President Mckinley and Governor
Roosevelt were in conference most of the
evening but nothing could be learned as
TO the matters discussed. The Governor
left for New York at 10 90.

TRAYIs DEFEATs LOCKWOOD.

Garden City, L July 6.-Only two
men remain in the struggle for champion
ship hOnOrs in the amateur golf tOurna-
ment, which after nearly a week of play
reached the semi-fnals on the Garden
City Golf club links today. One of these
is Findlay S. Douglass, Scotchman
who represents the Fairfield country club
Of Greenwich, Conn. He won che cham
piOnship two years agosat Morris bounty,
N. j., but last year at the Owentsia links
near Chicago, III , Herbert M, Hartman
of the Meadowbrook, defeated him in the
final round and captured the champion
ship laurels In the semi-hnal round to-
day Douglass had the satisfaction of de-
feating Hartman in the semi-finals by
four up and three to play, which was bet
ter than the beating he received at the
hands of Hartman in tht finals year
ago when the New York man was three
up and two to play.
The other survivor of the tournament
is Walter j. Travis of Oakland and Gar
den City, l.. l. Mr.. Travis is an Aus
tralian who earned the game in his
country and is therefore looked upon as a
home bred player.
Today he met A. G. Lockwood an
Englishman who represents the Allston
club Of Boston and defeated Lockwood
most decisively by II up and 10 to play.

Cleveland, Ohio, July 6.-Governor
Roosevelt spent eight hours in Cleveland
today. He left at % in the afternoon
for Canton to visit President Mckinley.
Senator Hanna did not accompany him.
Senator Hanna, when asked for an ex-
preston on the Democratic platform said:
From what l have read, can see that
it is a cunningly devised scheme to catch
the unwary and unthinking voters. I
think the most Iabored effort in their
document was to create a difference be-
tween expansion and Imperialism.

of demarcation; they apparently rely up

NOTED LECTURER
Dies In New York After Having
ExhOrted In Canton and
Other Cities.

Rev. Henry Camp, quite well known
in this city as a noted temperance lee
turer, died in New York city few days
ago as a result of fracture of his skull.
Camp was more Familiarity known as
Major Camp, and he lectured here upon
several occasions. but reference more
particularly Is made to revival which
he held back in the 'S0s. At that
time he appeared in this city with a So
loist, and the meetings which for sev-
eral weeks were held in the assembly
room Of the ely hall, were attended by
thousands of citizens. He was a gifted
speaker and he succeeded in doing a
great deal of good in this city, being
assisted by many church goers who
were at that time interested in this
work, The New York city papers state
that Camp was found few nights ago
on one of the streets Of that city with
his skull fractured, and after being re-
moved to hospital, he died. 1t is as
serted that he was victim of vertigo
eve to listen to the Trinity chimes.
Rev. Camp was born near Youngs-
town, Ohio, and is we'll known by res
idents in that city. He entered the
ministry and finally took up the tenn
perance work and carried on his exor-
tations all over this country, remain
ing in some cities for months at a time
His addresses were illustrated by stor-
les from his own life, in younger years
when he stated that he had been a vic
tim of the liquor habit. But seeing the
error of his way, he reformed and then
| began tour through the principal cit
| les securing signers to a pledge Of tenn.
perance.. He secured many advocates
of his reform idea in this city, and es.
peciallly was this true among the
younger people. Occasionally during
a meeting a man under the influence o.
liquor would walk into the room anC
| give himself up to Camp and tell hin
of his troubles. The speaker and hi
exorters would gather around the fel
low and finally cause him to sign a care
pledging himself to refrain from eX
cessive indulgences.
Rev. Camp recently was pastor Of tn
Mariners Temple in New York city
where he had been engaged in work 70
many years.

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube be-
comes infiamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
II is entirely closed deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
it's normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an infiamed condition of
the mucous surfaces,
We give one hundred dollars for any
case of deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Cure. Send for circular free.

A PEPPER DIET.
Suggestion For the Canton
BlOOdhOunds So They Will
Follow a Trail.

The keepers of the Canton blood
hounds are making every effort to keep
the dogs in good trim for work when
needed, but from the experience of
some Indiana officials it will be neces-
sary to keep them on a diet of red
pepper for some weeks to get them ac-
customed to that superlatively pungent
condiment. A special from Cincinnati
says:
Charles Gwynn, a farmer living near
Worthington, Ind, was sent back there
in charge of an officer. He surrendered
and asked to be sent home to stand
trial for shooting at his wife and father
in-law several months ago. He was ar
rested at the time and locked UP, but
he knocked down the jailer one day
and escaped. Gwynn had heard of
bloodhounds tracking criminals, so he
got a large supply Of cayenne pepper
and dropped a trail of it as he went
along. He finally struck the river and
fioated down stream in a skiff, coming
to Cincinnati after he thought he was
safe. He had spent all his money but
500 and is willing now to go back for
trial.

a "complainer, scolder and faultfinder."
The couple have parted several times,
but she has always gone back to him
upon his promise to do better. She
says he is also subject to fits Of
jealousy. Last February he created a
scene at the United Brethren church
because she spoke for a few minutes
to the preacher in the presence Of the
whole congregation. Last November

No better proof of the skill and ability
of DR.. SChram could be adduced than the
testimony of our own citizens. The fol-
lowing are but specimens of many.
More than 200 people in Canton and vi
cinity are now under DR.. Schram's
treatment, and all are loud in his
praise. Some remarkable results in
cases supposed to be incurable have
already been obtained. Surgical oper-
ations attempted only by the most

DR.. Schram has come to Canton to
stay. He has new methods, the result
of the latest research in science, and he
obtained results which, few years
ago, would have been classed as mira
cles. Read what people right here in
Canton and vicinity say:
