VICTIM
OF the Cleveland Dis
aster,
Was a Soldier Boy, Whose Home
Was at Wooster.

James Williams" who lost his life
in crib No. 3, was Ira Sidle Of Wooster.
Former residents of that city thought
they recognized Williams" as Woos-
ter man, but they could not place any
one OF the name the courageous man
had assumed. The following Wooster
dispatch clears up the mystery;
when the Plain Dealer reached here
and gave the name Of James Williams
of Wooster as the name of one of the
tunnel victims, no one could be found
who knew such person. This after.
noon the story was cleared up when
it was learned that the unfortunate
man was Ira Sidle, aged 23, son OF
Mrs. Jacob Hoover of this city.
"a sister who knew that her brother
was going under the name of VIII
liams and had job as foreman in
crib No. 3, gave the information. The
reason for the young man changing
his name is that he deserted from the
regular army in 1898.
"Sidle, when young, was wild, but
had settled down. His aged mother
was terribly prostrated over the news
She wants the body sent to her for
interment. Mrs. Hoover is poor and
not able to pay the expense.

FREIGHT WRECK
On the B. & 0. at Chicago
Junction.

Norwalk, o., Aug. 23.-(Spl.)-A dis
astrous wreck, causing one death and
destroying much property, occurred
on the Baltimore 6, Ohio late last night
at Chiago Junction. A double header
freight train coming over the Akron
division run in on siding upon which
a string of 40 cars had been let in from
the Chicago division. The trains came
together with terrific force, completely
stripping the head engine, entirely de
molishing the second engine and
wrecking twenty-five or thirty cars.
Engineer Campbell of the second en-
gine was caught in the wreckage and
instantly killed, being horribly mutilat-
ed. His fireman was badly injured, as

On the desks Of thousand of bust
ness men over the country, there are
very pretty paper weights-tiny nickle-
plated rubber horseshoes fitted with
the rubber fittings and all complete,
ready to be put on, though they would
be too small for any but tiny Shet-
land pony. The Whitman & Barnes
Co. sent these souvenirs out and there
was a large demand for them. The
traditional good luck" attaching to
horseshoes may have had something
to do with it, but the beauty of the
souvenirs undoubtedly had more.

The Gillens Were arrested Thursday
evening by Officer Nicholson, at their
home in Leroy St, Old Forge. Il
found a crowd at their house, and
they were fighting and drinking. At
first they wouldn't let me in, but
did so when l threatened to smash
the door. Before entering the house, /
saw two or three fellows running
away from a back door. When they
did let me in, they said the racket had
been caused by stove-pipe's falling
down. Neighbors complain about
them, and say that Mrs. Gillen neg
lects her children, often leaving the
family for week at a time"
Uncle Joe Kendall was called into
court and he didn't throw any bou-
Quets at Mrs. Gillen as housekeeper,
or her husband, as a provider. The
Court instructed Poor Director Ken,
dali to take charge of the three chill
dren of Mr.. and Mrs. Gillen while their
parents are in the workhouse. The
ages of the children range from 10

The Pretty Souvenir the ". & B.
People Put Out.

The probability that large rubber
factory will be moved to Akron is
bright While the question has been
pending for some time and the de-
tails of the matter are not made pub
lie it is certain that Akron is looked
upon very favorably by men strong in
the enterprise. The factory needs
more room than it can advantageously
secure where it now is. At present
$50 people are employed. The factory
is not a Cleveland concern as has been
reported Possible sites in East Ak
ron and the South End have been in
spected.
The inventor of the Haskell golf
ball-the son of United States Marshal
Haskell, of Cleveland, is making a
mint of money through his patent. The
Goodrich Co., which makes the balls,
has had a very busy season with
them and the trade will continue un-
til late in the fall. The Haskell ball,
which Is made by winding stretched
rubber and securely covering it, has
been described in all the golf and
rubber journals. The balls retail at
SO per dozen
There is much doing just now in the
way of holiday goods in the rubber
trade. More things might be
grouped under this heading than
one would suppose at first thought.
Think of the fountain pens, the atom
dry line, which are staple holiday
goods! Then there are the brownies,
which the Goodrich Co. makes by
thousands. and many other things.

Danger OF Pneumonia.

Our old winter enemy, Grip. is al hand,
and in his wake will follow his twin
brother. What Is termed an ordinary
cold" is usually the first warning. and in
few Gays Pneumonia follows.
The main trouble is conferred in the
neglect of the first symptoms. The latter
are more ominous Of evil in proportion to
the age of the patient. Past fifty years Of
age Pneumonia is 4 very fatal malady.

ROBBERS TEAM FOUND.
The sandy Springs Safe Crackers
Abandon the Stolen Vehicle.

n
The horse and wagon said to have been
stolen by the bank robbers who made an
unsuccessful attempt to blow open the
safe of the First National Bank at Sandy
Springs, Md, early Friday morning. were
found abandoned near Spencerville, Md,
six miles from Laurel yesterday. No clew
to the identity OF the thieves has yet been
discovered and the absence of descrip-
ton of the men embarrasses the detec-
tiyes working on the case. The local po-
lice are keeping watch, lest the thieves
should come this way, while the Mary
land authorities are securing the section
about Sandy Springs for any clew to the
perpetrators of the crime.
Everything connected with the attempt
upon the Sandy Springs bank indicates
that professionals did the work. The knob
Of the safe was broken off by an explo-
sion and preparations were almost com
plete for blowing the safe when they were
discovered. The fact that tools for the
work were taken from blacksmith shop
near the bank, and not carried away by
the robbers, also indicates shrewdness.

Action was taken yesterday by the Com
missioners upon the amendment which
Senator Mason intends to propose to the
House Appropriation bill for the District
OF Columbia. This amendment VIII pro-
vide for paving Columbia Road from
Fourteenth Street west. The proposed
amendment was referred to the Commits
sioncrs for their consideration and report
by the Senate Committee on the District
of Columbia Relative TO their action the
Commissioners have submitted state
ment 10 the committee.
Columbia Road west of Fourteenth
Street is a most important thoroughfare,
say the Commissioner 1t forms the
main connecting link between the Column
bia Heights and Washington Heights per-
lions of the suburbs of the city. The por-
tion which Senator Mason desires to have
paved by the amendment proposed to be
offered by him Is in need OF such improve
ment, and an item for the work would
have been inserted by the Commissioner
In their estimates had It not been neces-
sary 10 provide for the widening OF the
portion of the road between Eighteenth
and Nineteenth Streets In order TO per-
init the extension Of the Metropolitan
Railroad. as required by the act of Con-
gress approved June 6. 1900.
The condemnation authorized in this
act has been made, and though it has not
been confirmed by the court, ii is believed
that IL will be very shortly. and ii will
then become necessary to widen the road
in order that the extension Of the street
car track will not interfere with vehicle
traffic.

their estimates to distribute the improve
ments as far as possible throughout the
