How the Bears at Silver Lake Spend he.Months
of Snow and Ice.--Five Cubs Added
to the Number.

Six weeks ako the four bears at
Silver Lake park went into their dens
and they have not been seen since.
In the meantime two litters of baby
bears have arrived. 1t is supposed
there are two in one and three In the
other, but no one has attempted to
invade the inner domains OF their
bearships, and the exact number Of
cubs may not be known for several
weeks. For six weeks the bears have
eaten nothing. All last fall and in the
early part of the winter they fed on
sweet corn. Bushels of the grain were
consumed by them and they put on
fat in great punches. 1t is this which
sustains them during their three
months of Information.
About the middle of March the bears
will come forth and clamor for food
again. They will be given dried sweet
corn and parsnips, a great quantity
of that vegetable having been grown

Raw meat is never fed to the Silver
lake bears, by the way. 1t has ten.
dency to make them vicious. Some
times cooked meat is given them and
they are fond of it.
When Silver lake park opens in May
the cubs which have lately arrived
in this vale of bears. will be on exit
bition. BY that time they will be as
large as n small cat. They are scarce
ly bigger than squirrels now. The
additions to the population of the bear
pit make nine bears, which may be
seen there this year.
Among the Improvements at the park
this year are a new S400 pump to fur

Story Of Barberton's Beginning sa=nl
Planned by Founder In Europe
Original Idea Was Not Followed.

ecies Barberton's boom was on to stay.
Everybody is familiar with all that
has transpired since that time. Few
people however, have heretofore known
anything relative to the schemes which
resulted In the building Of city in
the midst Of Coventry's farm land. II
will be matter Of interest to know
that it was not ut Mr.. Barber's sug-
gestion that the town received the
name with which 1t Is now honored.
The name was selected at the office
of Mr.. Charles Baird. A number of
the men interested in the land venture
had gathered there to discuss business
matters. One of the parties suggested
that name should be selected for the
community. Any number of titles were
proposed but none seemed to answer.
Finally Barberton was mentioned. Ev-
erybody present except Mr.. Barber,
fell in with the idea, and before the
meeting was adjourned Barberton had
been named. Today Mr.. Barber has
greater faith in the possibilities Of the
town than he ever had before He
feels sure that some day it will outstrip
Akron. He has new Industries in view,
which he expects to locate during the
next year that will add greatly to
Barberton's population anu wealth.
In connection with the story of Bar
berton's inception 1t is interest ng tonote
that today there is buiiuing at Bar.
berton the largest soda ash plant in
the United States. The Columbia
Chemical Co., has already expended
more than $1,5OOOOO and before the
plant is complete, twice that sum will
be invested in the business. Before
locating at Barberton the promoters
Of the great industry looked over other
fields. Like Mr.. Barber, they decided
that the salt field south of New Por,
tage was the best location for an i'm
mense soda ash plant. Although 1t is
not built by Mr.. Barber it is located
In his town. Because of this he must
feel much satisfaction.

ANOTHER ENGINE.
N. O. T. Co. Will Use It For
Light Purposes During Day.

The y. o. T. Co is figuring to pur-
chase another new engine for it's cleo
tric light plant. 1t will be 375 horse
power, alternating engine, and will be
used to furnish the light used during
the day. Thus will be saved great
deal of wear and tear on the big 1900
horse power engine, to be used at
night.

1t was while in Europe, In 1888, that
Mr.. o. G. Barber conceived the idea
of founding n town. At that time he
had no such elaborate schemes as those
since developed. 1t was his idea to
purchase tract of land and locate Il
few plants. Perhaps he did not think,
at that time. that the scheme would
ever develop to such ap extent that
the community would grow to the pro-
portions of n municipal corporation.
He wanted location for an industry
and was satisfied that he could gain
something by going outside of. Akron.
First Of all he was impressed with the
soda ash industry in Europe. He found
on investigation that there were 1000
tons exported to America every day
In the United States it was sold at an
increase Of 30 per cent. as compared
with the European markets. He fig,
ured that the increased cost of pro-
duction in America was not so great
as the difference in the selling price.
With this information gained, he
began an investigation OF the
process of manufacture He found that
there was nothing connected with the
industry that could not be duplicated
in America. Before he left Europe for
home he had. decided to build a soda
ash plant. He did not know where he
would locate lslt he was sure that salt,
one of the great factors in the finished
product, could be found in the vicinity
Of Akron. A short time after reaching
home he took n number of his intimate
friends into his confidence telling them
Of his plans for the foundation of the
industry. Experts were consulted
They expressed the opinion that salt
could be found in abundance on the
land south of New Portage, the land
now covered by BarbertOn. Relying
on their judgment, Mr.. Barber pur
chased large tract of real estate. II
was determined to drill a number OF

wells and TIE contracts for the work
had been nl' but closed when new
factor made itself felt. News Of his
plans had reached Cleveland, where
a number Of men were taking an active
interest In the same industry. They
hastened to arrange meeting with
Mr.. Barber and his association. The
situation was carefully considered and
Mr.. Barber was induced to abandon
his plans and take an interest in the
Cleveland company. This settled, Mr..
Barber was confronted with another
proposition. He had paid fancy price
for the land south of New Portage and
of 1t. AS he had no use for the salt
he determined to prospect for some
thing else. He found that clay could
be taken to that point MS cheap as it
could to Akron. The shipping facili-
ties were as advantageous and land
was less expensive. AS result of all
this the National Sewer Pipe Co., was
organized and plant erected. This
was the first shop located in what is
now Barberton. At this time Mr.. Bar
ber decided to go into the real estate
and town building business in earnest.
Engineers We're employed and the farm
was plated. Streets were marked
and lots surveyed. The new town
was advertised far and wide. The
Diamond Match Co. plant was removed
from Akron to Barberton and houses
sprung up like mushrooms. The Kirk,
ham Art Tile works, the plant of the
Creedmore Cartridge Co., the American
Alumina factory and several other
industries were located inside of q
short time Barberton soon assumed
the proportions of a village. 1t was
then freely predicted that Mr.. Barber
and those associated with him would
awake some morning to find that they

WRECK
Probably Caused by Great Height
of Engine.

The only cause given for the Green.
vile wreck by Erie officials, seems to
be that the center Of gravity in the
Mother Hubbard" engines was too
high for the curve at the speed the
train was running when the wreck
occurred. Careful investigation failed
to reveal any spread in the rails, broK-
ell fiange, or other defect which could
have caused the trouble. The list
of the sharper curves on the line will
probably be gone over carefully, ex-
periments made, and any possible de.
feet attended to at once.
