American children in Paris were
benefited by the kindness of Mr..
and Mrs. Michael De Young, of San
Francisco. who gave fete in the af.
ternoon in their apartments at the
Continental hotel. An immense
Christmas tree, laden with .ttering
toys, had been erected in oAe of the
rooms. United States Ambassador
Porter and Mrs. Porter and Consul
General Gowdy and Mrs. Gowdy were
present at the distribution of gifts,
and constant stream of children left
the hotel, carrying armfuls of toys
which Mr.. and Mrs. De Young had
brought specially from America.

AULTMAN Patients
REMEMBERED

At the Aultman hospital Christmas
was made as joyous day as possible
by the efforts of the matron and the
nurses. There were decorations with
holly and flowers and special din
ner was served to all whose physica.
condition would permit them to par.
take.
The patients were remembered bv
their friends, who visited the institu-
ton In large numbers, bringing with
them bouquets, presents and delic,i
cies. The attendants were also re-
membered and all enjoyed the day. To-
the sick the day was as pleasant as
could be. The dreary monotony OF
the sick room was broken and all shar
ed in the cheer of the day.
The Junior Epworth lcaguers of the
city had an especial charge in thu
person of Charley Hodell, little bog
who is Ill at the hospitsi A Chris.
mas tree tastefully decorated was pre-
sented to him and neat sum of money
was placed in a little bank for his
use. He also received presents of diff
ferent kinds.

FROM COLORADO
Comes Applicant For Treatment
to Or. Larkjps


1t Is wonderful how accounts of c"res
made by Dr. Larkins spread On Thurs
day he received a communication from
a former resident of Canton now living
at La Junta, Colorado, who desires to
take treatment for case that has been
given UP by other physicians.
The best feature Of these publ;she /
accounts of cures by DR.. Lark.ns is
the truth OF the statements. The Doc
tor invites the fullest investigation OF
every testimonial and vouches for their
absolute truth.
1t is wonderful the practice the Doc
tor has obtained in this locality since
his arrival in Canton. His Office is
thronged with patients, yet he takes
occasion to call upon patients in this
city who are physically unable to come
to his Office. Recently he was called
to attend desperate case and succeed
ed in few moments in relieving a pa
tient who was apparently dead and
certainly unconscious.
Anyone who desires to witness the
rush of people calling upon DR.. IarEins
can do so by calling at the City Ma
tional Bank Building, Canton, during
business hours.

Iowa Man Gets Treasury
Portfolio.
WILSON WILL REMAIN
No Change to Be Made In the
Office OF Secretary Of AgricuI-
ture, Filled by Another Iowa
Man-chanc. Probably Next Month

Washington, Dec. 26.-It was an
nounced authoritatively last evening
that Governor Leslie M. Shaw, OF
Iowa, would be appointed secretary OF
the treasury to succeed Secretary Ly-
man j. Gage There will be no change
in the office of secretary of agricul-
ture, Secretary Wilson, also Of Iowa,
continuing to retain that portfolio.
The date of transfer of the treas
ury department will depend upon the
mutual convenience of the outgoing
and incoming secretary, Mr.. Gage
having signified an entire willingness
to remain at the head Of his depart
ment until such time as 1t may be
agreeable to his successor to take
hold. 1t is supposed, however, that
Governor Shaw will be inducted into
his new office some time in January.
1t has been known for two or three
days that Governor Shaw was slated
for appointment to succeed Secretary
Gage, but 1t was not until today that
the Iowa executive accepted the ten
der made to him.
Des Moines, Ia, Dec. 26.--Governor
Shaw was seen again last evening
with regard to his appointment as
secretary Of the United States treas
ury. He declined to talk at. length
about the matter, merely reiterating
that the president had confidentially
asked him by wire IL he would accept
the position il 1t should be rendered
to him. He replied that he would
accept, but up to the present time no
formal tender Of the position has
been made by the president. How
ever, from the tone of the dispatches
from Washington he assumed the
president will appoint him and that
to all intents and purposes the mat.
ter has been fully settled. The gov.
ernor's term as chief executive of
Iowa will not expire until Jan. 16,
when Governor-eleCt Cummins will be
inaugurated. The legislature will
convene Jan. 13, and Governor Shaw
will be very busy in the interim with
the preparation of his annual mes.
sage, so that II the appointment by
the president should be made Gov.
ernor Shaw will hardly be able to
take up the duties before Jan. 20, and
possibly later. The people of Iowa
/ are greatly elated at Governor Shaw S
| prospective entry. into the president s
cabinet, but would regret very much
to have Secretary of Agriculture Will
son retire in consequence, and no one
would regret this more than would
Governor Shaw. All Iowa people feel
that Mr.. Wilson Is the right man in
the right place in this and other ad
ministratiOns. With Allison as senate
leader, Henderson as speaker of the
house and with the prospect now CT
two members of the cabinet, the state
is undoubtedly greatly honored and
largely influential in national affairs

Some dealers had stocked up with
rabbits and they found ready sale.
Not only was the poultry supply ex-
hausted, but celery, sweet potatoes,
and everything In that line found
ready sale and many dealers were en-
tirely out long before the day was end
ed. Holly and moss were cleaned up
Christmas trees alone being about th
only Christmas speciality with which
Canton merchants were overstocked.
Another reduction has been made
in the wholesale price Of sugar, the
drop being rs cents hundred pounds
or Ia OF a cent a pound. This Is the

DE LAlTTRE DISCHARGED.
And the Costs Taxed Against the Com
planning Witness.

And the Costs Taxed Against the Com.
planning Witness.
The case of the state against Rob-
ert De Laittre of Horse Plains came
up for hearing in Justice McArthur's
court Saturday and it appears that a
serious injustice has been done Mr..
De Laittre, according to the story OF
the officers.
Mr.. De Laittre was accused OF steal
ing horse belonging to John Lang,
Sr. Mr. Lang went to the Plains and
demanded the horse, but De Laittre
said he had come by the animal hon.
estly an declined to give him up until
Mr.. Lang proved his ownership. Up
on this Mr.. Lang returned to Kafis-
pell and procured a warrant for De
Laittre's arrest, which was effected
by Deputy Sheriff Therriault.
Upon hearing the evidence adduced
at the preliminary examination, the
county attorney was of the opinion
that the arrest was not justified and
moved for the discharge of the de-
PENDANT and the taxing of the costs
against the complaining witness,
which wa saccordingly done.
Mr.. Lang thereupon commenced an
action in replevin to recover the
horse which, it seems to be conceded,
is rightfully his, and rather than con-
test the matter De Laittre turned the
horse over to him.
The officials say that De Laittre un-
questionably came into possession of
the horse honestly and that his ar
rest was mistake. Mr.. Langs rem
edy was by civil action, which he f.
nally took.
