PANIC
OF Spectators at Ringing Bros.
Circus.

During the performance by the
Ringling Brothers Circus at Wheeling,
last night, a high wind arose, causing
the canvas TO flap violently and the
quarter poles and even the big center
poles to hop up and down violently.
The exit was clogged with human
ity in an instant, and number OF
women tainted, but were promptly
cared for. In 10 minutes there was
not spectator left in the big tent. II
it considered miraculous that many
were not killed and many more In
jured. The panic occurred just after
the ring performance had closed and
the hippodrome races were about tc
begin.

Wallace Shows Equestrlennes.

One of the greatest difficulties that
the managers of the great modern
circuses have to contend with is the
derth of acrobatlc equestrennes. Not
one girl out Of a thousand who essays
the art ever achieves success, and not
one of a hundred Of those who succeed
ever attain eminence. In all the world
there is probably not more than half
a dozen who are considered truly great.
At the head of this little coterle of
celebrities stands beautiful Blanche
Reed, this season under engagement
to The Great Wallace Shows.
In point of polse, grace dash and
daring ability her riding simply defies
all description. Nothing she does looks
difficult nor appears indeed to require
effort. She is secure and as much at
heaving, bounding back of q galloping
horse as is society bale on a ball
room floor.
Her routine of repertoire Of feats and
evolutions is so varied that she can
completely change her act at every
performance for days at time. In
all she does there is naught that is
commonplace. She scorns the ordinary
and abhors the conventional. In the
vernacular she begins where the 9TH
| ers leave Off. and ends In an unap.
proachable achievement Of acrobatic
agility that is at once paradoxically
unattainable and past belief unless
seen with ones own eyes.
She is with the Great Wallace
Shows. At Akron. on Thursday, May
9th.

HOPEFUL VIEW
Or the Temperance Question by
Mrs. Letter.

Mrs. Frances Letter, who is credited
with having secured temperance lcgis-

Ohio, and in Congress, took an optimis-
tic view of general conditions with ref
crencc to the drink habit in America,
in an address at the First Baptist
church Friday evening While she de-
plored the increase in the consumption
of liquor and narcotics, she congratu-
lated the American people upon tile
practical temperance work which is
being done in the schools.
DR.. Katharine Kurt who introduced
the speaker, scored Akron teachers for
not being present at this lecture, as
they had been especially invited.

HOUSE-CLEANING.
Il Affects the Patronage Of the Library---Some
New Books.

Akron people are reading "Ralph
Marlowe," but not as they have read
some other things. The one copy the
Public Library possesses is in such de-
mand that people have to await their
turn, but this "Ohio novel" published
in Akron, nevertheless has superiors
in local popularity-Yet it is the gener-I
al verdict of those returning the vol
ume to the library that they like it.
"House- cleaning probably has much
to do with it." said Miss NJ. Pauline
Edgerton, City Librarian, speaking of
the decrease in the number of visitors
to the Library. The decrease is in
deed perceptible. 1t will be more SO
as the warmer months come on.
Another large list of new books has
just been prepared by the Librarian.
There are not many new things in the
list, for the fact is there have not been
many new books lately. There Is
much fiction in the list but principally
increasing the number of given works
now on the shelves. Through the Ant
arctic Night" by DR.. Cook, who
lectured in Akron on that topic the
past winter is among the new books

The German books ordered for the

books were to be purchased.

Mr.. Sargent has received letter
from Secretary Probst, Of the State
Board of health, expressing congratu'
Iations upon Akron's vigilance and
good fortune. There have been 1851

no deaths have occurred and the attack
has always been light. The young

tiers to be forgotten. He not only failed
to help legislation, but. according to
Miss Lathrop, hindered its passage. Not
satisfied With that, he personally de-
manded that !. Mack Tanner be made
Secretary of the Board. Tanner had to
he taken care of, and the secretaryship
seemed the most convenient berth.
Small wonder that Miss Lathrop has
resigned. Her devoted work for the
StnteS wards has been set at naught by
this panderng to political ambition on
the part of Governor Yates. In her let
ter TO the Governor stating her reasons
for resiSning, she possibly shows how
Tanners appointment was secured when
she mentions that the grandson OF the
President of the Board had been placed
in the office as clerk. though the old
force was amply sufficient for all pur-
poses.
Stuffed payrolls in the Board of Chari-
ties once begun will find no limit. IL
linois has a right 10 demand that the
money devoted to the elcemosynary in
stit1ltionS shall be expended for the good
of the wards of the State. Governor
Yates is injecting politics into n Board
that should have no connection with
wire-pulling Miss Lathrop's protest and
resignation should not be without their
affn.f
