Postmaster and Custodian George B.
Frease has returned from Washington
where he secured three city mail car
iers to be added to the Canton force,
on account of growing postal business
of the city and extensions and improve
ments it is desired to make between now

also secured much new furnitue for the
enlarged post Office working room and
money order department.
Treasury department inspectors say
Judge Days chambers in the postoffice
building, the furnishing Of which was
recently secured on application Of the
custodian, are among the finest in the
country. Judge Day has heard a
number of very important arguments
there. Recently Attorney J. H. Hoyt
and other Cleveland lawyers, as well
as prominent New York counsel, have
appeared before Judge Day in his Can
ton chambers in important patent liti-
cation.
The postmaster has secured advances
in the salaries for five of the Canton
postoffice clerks.
The grounds about the public build
ing will be resodded now that the addi-
tion is about completed. The money
order and registry departments have
been enlarged and provided with a
separate marble tiled floor lobby, fitted
up with furniture in bank desk style.
The carriers have a handsome reading
room, while the space for working mails
in and out has been doubled and furn-
ishings and apparatus of metropolitan
style have been provided.

SERIOUS CHARGE
AGAINST BOYS.
Six Youths Arrested at Noon
Monday For a Theft.
THEY DENY THE CHARGE.
Four OF Them Are Held, Two of Them
Securing Bail For Their Appearance
Sons of Respectable
Parents.

Several very youthful prisoners are
being held by the police to answer to
an alleged crime committed at Meyers
lake last Saturday. Six boys were ap-
pretended by Marshal Reinhart, Ser
geant Riblet and Officer Rohn at noon,
Monday, and taken to the city prison.
The names given by those apprehended
are Gorby Fritz, Joseph Young, Norman
Farnum, Roy Weaver, Howard c.
Kearney and Harry Shearer. Kearney
and Farnum gave security for their
appearance before the mayor Monday
evening at o'clock the remainder of
the boys will be held until that time or
until arrangements are made for their
release from custody.
1t appears there was a picnic at
Meyers lake last Saturday and ball
game was to be played between en-
ployes of shop and the Anchor base
ball team. A valise containing various
articles was permitted to remain in a
small building in the upper lake woods.
Just about the time this was wanted by
the parties to who it belonged it was
missing. A search was made for the
articles and they were traced to several
small boys who had been at the picnic.
1t is alleged by the boys who were ar
rested that Gorby Fritz, one of their
number, visited the building and re-
moved the valise and carried 1t over to
the lake woods and then opened the
valise and divided the contents with
the other boys. Young Fritz denies
this charge.
A News-Democrat reporter conversed
with the lads at the police station.
Fritz states that he was at the grounds
at the time mentioned, but that he
was assisted by the other boys in the
theft of the stolen articles. The boys
with whom Fritz divided the booty
acknowledged that they were given
the articles by Fritz, but say they did
not know they was stolen. The boys
are sons of respectable parents and an
effort will be made to settle the case
If possible.
An affidavit was filed against Gorby
Fritz by Charles Wills, charging the
young boy with unlawfully taking and
carrying away the base ball mask
valued at $3.50, base ball costing s1.25
tickets worth so cents, two boxes OF
cigars costing $3.50, tape line valued
at $3.50, pair of shoes worth $3.50 and
a cap valued at so cents. The affidavit
alleges that the stolen articles were
owned by the Anchor Base Ball club, j.
II. Eller & Co., and Charles Wills.
Various charges are made by the boys
against young Fritz, and they state that
when they are arraigned before the
mayor they will tell their story truth
fully and thus clear themselves of any
criminal charge.

and while the air in the shed was

The suction pulled him, and
when the surrounding air got the
motion Of the train it foatcd him

interesting, as was the similar
