Canton People.

If there Is anything in local indors-
alton when compared with foreign, IL
ther Is anything more convincing in
the opinions held by the people we
know than those entertained by utter
strangers, then Canton citizens have
the golden opportunity of their lives
to decide these points when they read
the views and opinions Of Mr.. Alfred

sides at No. 100 w. Lake street. He
says:
From a boy I was troubled with a
weak back which developed some six

Marion, Ind, April T.-An air of
mystery surrounds the death Of Chas.
Snyder, a travelling statesmen from Sa-
lem, Columbiana county, Ohio. Sny-
der was found dead in room In the
Oyster Bay hotel at an Narly hour this
morning. He came here Monday with
a woman and the two registered as
husband and wife. Tuesday evening
the proprietor came into possession or
information that the woman was not
Snyder's wife and he ordered her to
leave the hotel. Later, the proprietor
was informed by the woman that Sny-
der had disappeared, and, as he had
been drinking heavily, she feared he
had been overcome. She then left the
hotel and reported the facts to the po-
lice. At s o'clock in the evening the
landlord found Snyder in back room
lying upon the bed in stupid condi-
tion, but decided not to disturb him un-
til morning, supposing that he was
helpless from the effects of drinking
Shortly after midnight he visited the
room and discovered that the man hac
been dead for several hours. 1t latel

Special to News-Democrat.
Massillon, April 2S.-Every one at the
state hospital who is able to be out has
been enjoying the fine weather of the
past week. There has been a great
deal of outside work done A large
force Is at work on the new tunnel.
The south end of this is about complet-
ed. When finished ii will be a deep and
wide ditch. 1t will go to the new cot
tages on the east side and eventually
to the proposed new infirmary building.
Nearly all of the workmen on the ditch
are patients at the institution and the
work to many of them is welcome
change from the ordinary everyday life
around he cottages. While there is
the dali walk it is not like the exercise
of working. There will be plenty of
work around the place to keep the men
busy for some years to come.
1t is the intention of the manage
ment to raise enough potatoes on the
| farm during the coming season to sup
| ply the institution throughout the year.
| This was not done last year. There
| was in the neighborhood of $500
| bushels raised at that time. The season
| was not a good one for the crop as 1t
| was so very dry. 1t is the intention
this year to raise 5000 bushels and it
| is thought that that amount will sup
ply the place throughout the winter.
| There Is large acreage planted with
other vegetables.
There is considerable work that will
have to be done on the land that was
purchased recently from the board Of
| trade. The amount that was purchas-
ed was 80 acres. A great deal of this
is swamp and has to be drained. This
is being done through big ditch which
extends from the middle of the swamp
to the road south of the institution.
1t will drain the entire swamp and
there will be about forty acres that
will be cultivated. The remainder of
the land that was purchased is at the
present time covered by a heavy growth
of timber. This extends south and east
of the cleared portion. AS soon as
! possible the work will be started on that
strip and 1t will be converted into a
beautiful park. This park will contain
40 acres of land and will be invaluable
to the institution. Clearings will be
made and these will be in the low parts
of the grounds. In these clearings
J there will be ponds that will add
, greatly to the beauty of the place. The
ground and the entire location is an
: ideal one for the purpose for which
) it is intended and it will be the finest
| place of the kind in the state.
