crat to the effect that the Northern
Ohio Traction company is in touch
with w, A. Lynch and will construct its
road from Canton to Akron. while the
Welty road Will have much difficulty
IN securing terminal franchises. Says
the Beacon.Journal:
Treasurer j. II. Mutt was shown the
above article, and he said: Our com.
pany has absolutely no connection with
Mr.. Lynch. We intend to build road
to Canton, and are proceeding to do it
as rapidly as we can. but we are doing
1t independently of any other road or
company. We intend to build a road
whether another is built or not, and
are not troubling ourselves about the
other fellows"
On the other hand the Welty people
deny they are in danger of losing. the
franchises for terminals.

Click, a fifteen-year-old girl, entered
Lakeside Hospital last Friday slowly
choking from large pin lodged in her
throat. She lett for her home at Canal
Dover, Ohio, Wednesday completely
recovered.
She was eating supper week ago and
as she swallowed piece of bread she
felt sharp pain in her throat. She
tried to swallow, but the pain only be.
came greater. Doctors. drew out her
tongue and saw the head of the pin
projecting from the lining of her throat.
They tried to remove it with forceps,
but the contraction OF the muscles of
the throat prevented. 1t was impos-
sible to cut from. the outside owing
to the position of the pin. So the knives
were used on the girls throat from the
inside, the swollen membrane cut away
and the pin picked out.
