All day In the street there's tumble.
The people go hurrying past;
The proud and the careless and humble
At many q corner are massed,
And many q man in q hurry
Goes lodging the trucks and the cars.
With no inclination to worry
y Ger the state of affairs on the stars
Each hopes to eclipse all the rest
Who are pushing and rushing
along,
And the weak and the timid are
Aside blythe BY the bold and the strong.
All day In the rush and the rattle
4 The contest continues. and meier
On the field OF the bloodless battle
We're rivals more willing to- dare
Than are they that go wildly pursuing
The maddening dollar all day,
Each ready to work the undoing
OF any who stands in the way
Each hoping to pass all the rest
Who are pushing and stumbling
along
Where the weak and the timid are
Aside BY sSi the bold and the strong.
Tar away from the racket, the riot,
i, Two men are asleep and serene
Where only the birds break the quiet
That reigns DER the fowery scene
But lately as rivals they hurried
Where the proud and the humble con-
tend,
And each Of them watched and was wor-
ried
Lest the other. should win in the end
Each hoped to outstrip all the rest
That galloped or stumbled along
And the weak and the halt are still
pressed
Aside by the bold and the strong.

cAMoRRA AND MALTA.
torlous Italian Societies Found
ed for Murder.

The Camorra belongs to the main
land, the Mafia to Sicily, says H. D.
Sedgwick, Jr., in Atlantic. It is hard
for q foreigner to understand the diff
ference between these famous bodies;
the Camorra is q society founded on
blackmail; the Malta is series of So
cieties, the outgrowth of Ignorance and
impotent government. As the lawsuit
between Casale and La Propaganda has
brought the Camorra freshly before
the public, SO the legal Investigation
to unearth evidence against Notar-
bartolo's murderer has made Italy
aware that she has another great So
cial problem in the Malta. Some ten
years ago the government banks ''got
into politics" as we say; land among
others the Bank of Sicily was made
use Of for private ends. Itwas enough
to be q friend, Of friend of politi-
clan, for man toget q loan on INSULT
cient security or at . very low rate of
interest; and a great many scamps1
profited thereby. Public moneys were
wasted, and the penal code set ct
naught. Atlast public sentimeptwas'
aroused, and an investigation threat
ened. Signor Nbtarbartolo, an incor-
ruptible J, capable, energetic man, who,
for unexplained reasons, had been re-
moved from the direction of the bank
just before this criminal misuse Gifts
funds, was, by character and knowl-
edge, the very man to ferret ont the
guilty and bring them to punishment.
The public turned impe tuously to him
as the instrument Of justice. Sud-
denly he was murdered. The hand
that struck the blow Belonged TO the.
Malta; and obviously the heads that
directed the hand, fearful Of discov-
cry, were able to.use the Malta foS Sc.
rious purposes ct their need,

PLANS
OF N. 0. T. Co.
May Change.
Debating Whether to
Complete
The Barberton Line
Project.
Line Through Kenmore Con.
nected at Both Ends.

It is probable that the proposition
of the N. o. T. Co., to build an entire
new line between Akron and Barber
ton, may be abandoned for this year.
At any rate, the advisability Of con-
tinuing the line over the entire boule-
ward route is being considered, and
as all OF the new track built lately
Is being connected with the old line
on the Manchester road, at Murray's
switch it seems to be taken for grant
ed that the entire new line will not
be completed this year.
At present, trolley wires are being
strung over that section of the line
now completed through Kenmore, and
within a week it is expected that cars
will be running in the new schedule
The cut through Kenmore shortens
the Barberton line half a mile.
The cause for considering the aban-
donment for this year of the former
new line project is accredited to the
delay in constructing the Barberton
end of the boulevard.

ON THE CLEVELAND EXCHANGE
During the last week the stock has
advanced from about $72 a share tc
the highest price at which it was

and the unusual activity in the stock
are thought to be due to information

from New York last night:

nevertheless, the result, which will
