GOT A FINE WELL.
May be One of Many That Will
Furnish the City by Gravity
system.

Superintendent Ohliger of the water
works department stated Friday after
noon that his workmen had completed
the drilling of the well in the north
end, recently begun. The well has been
sunk about 225 feet and nice flow Of
water has been obtained. This well is
located with a group of others and the
location has been decided upon by the
water trustees as being an available
one, so that If a sufficient supply Of
water is secured, it can be flowed into
the city main on the gravity system
without the expense of buying a new
pump and pumping it into the main.
The trustees are of the opinion that
the location is one of the cleanest and
most wholesome which has thus far
been selected, and they suggest that
sufficient water will probably be obtain
ed to provide spring water instead of
the water now supplied, which is only
about half spring water.
The water works officials have sub
mitted bottle of this water to the
state bacteriologist and are patiently
awaiting a reply as to the purity of the
same, in order that other wells may be
sunk if the state board of health grants
permission. Superintendent Ohliger
made a test of the flow Of the spring
Saturday. in order to learn the amount
| flowing forth in specified time.

The Road Now Practically In
the Hands of the Wheeling
4 Lake Erie.

Cleveland Leader: After lying idle
for the better part of a year, having
been abandoned by the order of the
railroad commissioner, the Coshocton
and Southern railroad has practically
been purchased by the Wheeling and
Lake Erie and will be operated by it..
Within the last few days the bonds of
that roads have been purchased by the
Wheeling, and this, it is said, will
hasten the sale of the property. This is
but one step that will lead to the wind
ing up of the receivership of the Cleve-
Ian, Canton and Southern. In fact,
Receiver j. w. Wardwell is now closing
up his affairs, after six years and five
months as receiver Of that road. and
will very shortly end the receivership
entirely. He resigns as to all the sys-
TENS, including the main line, the Cleve-
land, Chagrin Falls & Northern, and
the CoShocton & Southern. 1t is eX-
pected that a new receiver will be ap-
pointed for the Chagrin Falls road, but
the Coshocton e. Southern will pass in
to the hands of the Wheeling and will
not need such protection. Just who the
new receiver for the Chagrin Falls route
will be remains vet to be seen.

ANKLE BROKEN.
Young Woman Receives Injur
les That Are Very
Painful.

A young woman passing down South
Walnut street about o'clock Friday
evening, on the west side, alongside of
the Empire block, slipped upon the
pavement and as she fell she sustained
two fractures of her ankle. Pedestrians
picked the woman from the sidewalk,
and calling a coach, she was taken to
the Kramer residence at 433 Saxton
street, where surgical attendance was
secured. The woman's name is Kate
Baker, and she formerly resided in
Cleveland, but has made her home in
this city for a short time. Quite a crowd
was attracted to the scene. The woman
cried aloud with pain.

SLICED THE BILL,
Jury Took 500 Of a Claim and
Gave Plaintiff a.
Verdict.

Every attorney Of Massillon was in
Canton Friday either as a witness or as
counsel in the case Of Eggert and Nc
Laughlin against Louis Winold. The
plaintiff had done some legal business
for the defendant and a dispute arose
about the fees. The lawyers asked $780,
The defendant thought that was eXor-
bitant and a law suit resulted in a JUS
tice court at Massillon. There the court
decided the services were worth $25.
The lawyers were not satisfied and the
case was tried over in common pleas
court Friday. Mr.. Willison represented
the plaintiffs and Mr. McMillen the de-
fendant. Witnesses were examined to
see what work the plaintiff had done
and then the lawyers were put on the
stand to tell what lawyers services
were worth. As the result Of this the
jury brought in a verdict for the plaint-
if for $3.50. Judge Taylor then dismissed
the jury and told the members they
could go home and stay till called for.

Set Tn Eleven Reasons.

Attorney James Sterling Saturday af-
ternoon filed a motion for a new trial in
the case of Buchman's executor against
Pontius' administrator in which judg-
ment for the plaintiff was rendered for
$1O2 this week. The motion sets up
eleven different reasons why the ver-
dict should be set aside. 1t says the pc
tition did not state a cause of action, the
court had no jurisdiction over the de-
fendant, the verdict was contrary to
the law and the evidence, there was
error in trial and the verdict was eX-
CeSSiVe.

A large and enthusiastic meeting was
held Thursday, February Is, over the
Leader saloon on Court street, for the
purpose of organizing a new poultry,
pigeon and pet stock association. Tenn
porary officers were chosen and consid-
erable business was transacted. 1t was
decided that it should be called the Can
ton National Fanciers' association. This
organization was formed for the pur-
pose of giving shows and for the gen.
eral upbuilding Of fancy poultry and
pigeon raising. Canton and Stark coun-
ty have some of the finest poultry and
pigeons to be found anywhere, and this
association will be represented by and
include some of the best breeders in the
state.

CAN'T DENY 1T.
When the Facts Are Brought Home TO
Us, and by our NeighbOrs too
They are Canton Facts.

A wholesome suspicion Is one of our
characteristics as people. In matters
worthy Of investigation we want real
tangible facts regarding it. The word
of those we know, the nearby evidence
obtainable are generally what we most
desire. When we call on a neighbor,
man of business, at that, and say,
"you have had some experience with
| so-and-so, what do you think OF it?'
and he answers, 'just the thing, l
know because I have tried It," 1t goes
long way in helping our decision.
This Is always the case with Doan's
Kidney Pills. Everybody who has
| used them for any kidney complaint
will tell you. "They are just the
thing" Why? Because they do the
work every time and in all disordered
conditions of the kidneys. The proof
lies with your neighbors. Many have
been cured In Canton and are ready to
tell you or anyone inquiring.
Mr.. William Sickmiller, of No. 22 Old
Row, foreman of the construction
crew of the Ft. Wa!ne r. r., says:
| For a few years I was troubled with
kidney complaint, urinary weakness
one time; a urinary difficulty the next;
a good deal of backache, with now and
then severe sharp pains in the kidneys
especially If I did any lifting or stoop-
ing. / was in such miserable condi-
ton that would have been willing to
give $50 IL I could get relief at once,
I took medicine from physicians but
might as we'll have taken that much
wat for all the good 1t did. Doan's
Kidney Pills attracted my attention
in the papers and / said to my wife
'I must do something for this COM
plant or will be down with It,"
procured a box at Durbin, Wright &
Co.'s drug store. 1t was only a short
time before noticed an improvement
I took the pills about two weeks anc
was cured. / am confident Doan'i

and gave him no more trouble until .ast
Monday evening he complained Of
slight pain in his hand and arm, which
became worse and on Wednesday night

out of his mouth, which was only ac-
cOmplished by choking the animal II
