From staff Correspondent.
Columbus, Oct. "A petition with
upwards of 10000 names was filed with
the secretary of state today by Chair
man j. j. Ashenhurst, of this city, of
the Prohibition party, and application
made for place for the party on the
state ticket. Under the law the party
needs 10000 signatures. At the last
regular election the Prohibitionists
failed to secure the number of votes
requisite to get on the state ballot
without petition. Chairman Ashen-
hurst predicts that the party will poll
MANY MORE VOTES
this fall than a year ago and conse.
qucntly next year will not be under the
necessity of resorting to a canvass for
signatures for official recognition.
Both Stark and Columbiana county re-
sponded generously to the call for
signatures, and without their help it
might have been impossible for the
party to secure representation on the

When Prosecuting Attorney Robert
II. Day made his report with reference
to the workhouse plumbing, 1t was
thought that the finish had been seen
80 far as expenditures Of that sort were
concerned. The bills looked so ridic-
uIously exorbitant to the uninitiatsd
that 1t was believed that nobody would
have the hardihood to put in any more.
That the people who brought their
minds to that way of thinking were
entirely mistaken and did not know
the resourcefulness of the workhouse
plumber, is shown by the records in

SOFT CONTRACTS.
In his February report the prosecutor
was called upon to exploit bill after
bill; of this firm in connection with
the workhouse jobs. Through all his
exhaustive report he did not once men
ton a contract and it is reported that
there is no contract on file. At least
it did not appear to be available to the
prosecutor. 1t is said to have been a
peculiar agreement, hence the peculiari-
ty of some of the bills. 1t was one
of those contracts, whether verbal or
written is not known, that admits Of
some question. 1t is said to have been
let on the plan that the company was
to furnish the material at cost plus 4
percentage-said to be ten per cent
pIofit for the company, and then the
labor was to be furnished by the COM
pany and paid for by the county. In
that manner it will at once appear that
It was a good contraction the COM

"AUTos" ARE READY.
Exhibit of Plant and Vehicles Given on
Saturday.


The Hawaiian Automobile Company
gave an exhibition of it's power plant
and the running of it's vehicles Satur-

Honolulu Newspapers. Under the di-

combination of springs and rubber tires
makes them run as smoothly as a train
OF Vestibuled Pullman or Wagner

stops. They can run at any desirable
speed, and seem to be admirable for
every purpose for which a public con-
veyance is wanted.

Africa's Ancient se..

Recent studies of the animal life Of
Lake Tanganyika has shown that that
lake differs from all other African
lakes In possessing inhabitants that
belong to oceanic species. Still, these
singular denizens of Lake flanagan
yika are not exactly like the marine
organisms of the present day, and the
conclusion is drawn that sea, con-
nected with the open ocean, once occu-
pied the part Of Africa where flanagan
yika now lies, and that the lake Is the
last remnant Of the ancient sea.

The next, and that was the fourth
day of our acquaintance, we met in the
same spot, but early in the morning,
with much familiarity, and yet much
timidity on either side. When she had
once more spoken about my danger

cuse for coming, who had prepar-
ed great deal of talk during the night
began to tell her how highly I valued
her said interest, and how no one had

had ever cared to relate it, before
