Taylor Defeated Hayden

Columbus, March 9.-The Republican
primaries last night, following one Of
the fiercest factional fights in the his
tory of the local party. resulted In the
nomination of Henry C. Taylor, r. for
mayor. ,--a sass -e..
Mr.. Taylor is Judge advocate general
on Governor Nash's staff. and has been
until recently identified with the Hanna
faction of the party, but In the fight
just ended he was the representative Of
and backed by the city administration,
which Us dominated by Director Of Pub
lie improvements Linus Kaufman, one
of Harry Daugherty's chief lieutenants,
and by Cyrus Huling, who went to the
national convention as the Daugherty
leader in the Ohio delegation.
Mr.. Taylor's chief opponent, Frank q.
Hayden, had the support not only OF
John r. Malloy, state oil inspector, but
of Charles b. Kurtz and his lieutenants,
the cleverest political manipulators in
Columbus. Hayden's defeat, due partly
to the municipal administration ma
chine, is overwhelming. There was a
big vote and Taylor's plurality IL close
TO 1000.

In November of the same year, Rev.
Benjamin Faust was taken Ill with
dangerous throat disease, and died
soon after, and the young theological
student was called upon at once to
fill the pulpit, and though he was only
in the nineteenth year of his age, he at
once got the affection and support of the
congregation, and remained pastor Of
the said congregation for over SO years,
closing his long and successful pastor

Our illustration today shows the old
home Of the late Rev. Peter Herbruck,
which was built by him at what is now
known as 1908 East Tuscarawas street,
on the northeast corner of Tuscarawas
and Herbruck streets. in 1884, so that
the house Is now 67 years old. The
kitchen part on the north side and the
One-story addition on the east side were
put up some years after the main build
ing was erected; but aside from these
two additions, the original building
looks much as it did when first built.
Rev. Peter Herbruck was much be-
loved by his own people and highly re-
garded by all good citizens whether Of
that immediate congregation or some
other. He was a native Of Germany,
and from the time he was ten years
old he ionged and prayed that he might
be minister Of the gospel.
IN preparation for this work he, for
several years, walked five miles each
morning and back in the evening to
select school, preparatory to the
work he was longing for. He also
longed to come to America. but his
father was poor, and his mother would
not consent to leave her native land.
In 1881 young Herbruck, then only 18
years old, resolved to seek a home in
the United States, and walked 500 miles
to Havre, where he expected to start
on his voyage to the New World. He
was compelled to wait in Havre sever
al weeks before he could get vessel
for the United States; and eventually
started in an old French sailing vessel.
They had been gone only two or three
days when they were overtaken by d
terrific storm, sweeping away two Of
the masts and almost wrecking the
vessel. They were towed by another
friendly vessel back to Plymouth, En-
gland, for repairs, and after much de-
lay made second start from Plymouth,
and after being out 72 days, contending
against many reverses, they finally
landed at Philadelphia. The delays
and mishaps had greatly reduced the
little stock Of money the young theo-
logical student started out with. but
by his warm and genial nature, he made
friends that helped him. He started
west from Philadelphia, and got as far
as Womielsdorf, Berks county, Pa,
where he secured position as teacher
In a country school for the winter. In
the early spring of 1882 he started to
60 farther west, and struck party
with an old style Conestoga wagon,
with large letters on the canvas, For
Ohio" and with them he journeyed as
far as Wheeling, w. Va, Here he met
young man who was going northward
towards New Lisbon, Ohio, and with
him he came that far; but when they
got there he told his travelling compan-
ion that he could 60 no further north
ward with him; that he had made
1t subject of prayer, and that he
would start westward on the state road
towards Canton. In. few days he
got to Canton and found it a small vii
lage. He started to 60 farther west,
and near the west creek. he took rest
and a sleep for few hours. He then
started on towards Massillon, but when

in Canton. and know of none In the
state that has continued SO long.
In the early history of the Reformed
church in Canton, they and the Luther
ans jointly owned and occupied the
same house of worship. The German
Lutheran church now stands on the east
end of the block they owned. In 1860
the two congregations agreed to separ-
ate, the Lutherans taking the east end
of the block, on which stood the old
house Of worship, which they contin-
ued to use for while, after which they
tore down the old house, and built the
more modern style house which they
now occupy, with Rev. l.. F. Meyer as
their pastor. The Reformed congrega-
tion took the west part of the block
and at once built good substantial
brick house of worship, near the west
end of the block. Said house still
stands, but 1t has been greatly enlarg-
ed, and much improved in style and
modern conveniences. The late Con-
rad Schweitzer, ST., was one of Rev.
P. Herbruck's most active and liberal
supporters, in the construction OF, their
new house Of worship. One of the bells
in the tower of said church was, ,put in
by Mr.. Schweitzer at his own expense
The year following Rev. P. Herbrpck's g
taking charge of the Canton congrega-
ton, he married Miss Sarah Holwick,
daughter of the late Jonathan Holwick,
who lived two and half miles east,
and a little north of the state road
and built the house we illustrate, the
next year, and then he moved into this
new house, and resided there until his
death, in 1895, having lived with his
excellent companion SO years, and all
but the first year in the same house.
where their whole family of chill
dren were born and raised. Very few
II any such instances can be found in
the county. There was quite family
of children, mostly boys, among4whoin
were Rev. r. p. Herbruck, pastor of
the Trinity Reformed church In Can
ton, Rev. Z. Herbruck, Of Dayton, Ohio
and ferdinand Herbruck, one of the
largest and most successful business
men and merchants OF Canton.
During the pastorate of Rev. r, Her
bruck, of the Reformed church in Can
ton, he often had other out-stations
that he supplied, such as Paris, yOsna-
burg, Carrollton, Bethlehem, George
town, Cairo, New Berlin, etc. This, was
occasioned by two reasons: First, the
want of preachers, and next the .finan-
cial support from the Canton congrega-
tion was very meager. s4,g3
1t has been said. and / think It Is
true. that Rev. p. Herbruck married
more people. and offlciated at more fun
erals than any other mali in Stark
county. The record Is. that he per-
form 2,61l marriage ceremonies and Of
ficiated at 1850 funerals.
The German language was Father
Herbruck's native tongue, and in that
language he loved to preach the gospel;
he became quite proficient in the use
of the English language, but to the
best Of my recolleotions he never under-
took to preach in any language but the
German. ~ u.

he would send me pass. He sent for
