IT WILL BE "PEOPLE'S TICKET"

We clip the following from the Topeka Cap
ital:
'John Curran, secretary of the Populist state
central committee; Representative Babb, OF
Wichita, and Grant Harrington, of Hiawatha,
held conference in this city to discuss what
steps to take regarding the decision recently
handed down by Attorney General GODDARD that
the words Peoples Party cannot appear on
the official ballot. 1t is understood they decid-
ed not to make fight, butt accept the ruling
that only Peoples Ticket can appear on the
ballot. While In the strict sense it is not the
name of the Populist party, it is thought the
name will prove an attractive one"

Going Back to Gran'pa's.

I'm going back to gran'pa's.
won't come back no more
To hear remarks about my feet
A muddyin' up the floor
They's too much said about my clothe
The seedlings never done
am going back down to gran'pa's,
Where boy can have some fun.

A-gittin' worms for bait
He said he used to like it
When laid abed so late
He said that pie was good for boys,
An candy made 'em grow.
If can't go back to granpa's
III turn pirate fust you know.
He let me take his shotgun,
An loaded it for me.
The cats they hid out in the barn;
The hens flew up tree;
had circus in the yard
With twenty other boys
I'm going back to gran'pa's,
Where they amt afraid of NOISE.
He didn't make me comb my hair
But once or twice week.
He wasn't watching out for words
hadn't orter speak.
He told me stores bout the war,
An Injuns shot out west.
Oh, I'm goin' down to gran'pa's,
For he knows what boys like best.
He even ran a race with me,
But had to stop an cough.
He rode my bicycle an laughed
Because he tumbled off.
He knew the'early apple trees
Around within mile.
Oh, gran'pa was dandy.
An was it all the while.
bet you gran'pa's lonesome,
don't care what you say

When you took me away.
When you talk to me of heaven,
Where all the good folks go,

Caused Death of Former
Stark County Man.
BITTEN BY STRAY DOG.
And Died in Terrible Convui-
sions Five Weeks After.
Raised In osnaburs
Township. #'A

Isaac Dagger, Of near Mapleton, re-
turned Thursday evening from Fred
ericktown, Ohio, where ne had been
attending the funeral of William HI.
Boyd, formerly a resident of Osnaburg
township, Stark county. Mr.. Dagger
passed through Canton on his way
home, and gave the News-Democrat a
graphic account Of the terrible death
that Mr.. Boyd suffered.
! The deceased lived upon farm, and
about five weeks prior to his death he
went to the barnyard one morning and
saw a tramp dog running about the
barn. He called the animal to, him
and STOPPING down patted It on the
head. The dog ~
I K, Z SNAPPED AT HIM.. - 't,r'
one tooth just, breaking the skin. at
the base OF, the thumb on one hand.
The dog then ran away. The wound
was not a serious one and nothing Of q
dangerous character was anticipated
from the bite.
About three weeks afterward, Mr..
Boyd felt pains in his arm and shoul-
der, seeming to emanate from the
wound upon his hand. The pains kept
getting worse as time passed. and on
the Friday before his death, which oc-
CURED Sunday, the arm became very
painful and badly inflamed. Hydro
phobia was feared. The patient ba-
came consumed with q violent thirst,
and when he attempted to take a
drink Of water, he choked upon 1t, and
was Immediately thrown into convul-
sions. From that time until his death
violent convulsiOns occurred, with
short periods of relief between them.
During these intermissions, Mr., Boyd
was perfectly rational, and begged his
wife and those who were attending him
to be careful and stay away from him
when he was working ~
IN CONvULsIONS ~
for fear they would be bitten or
scratched by him and suffer a'similar
fate. He urged upon the doctors to
give him extreme doses Of narcotics
and morphine enough to kill man
under ordinary circumstances were in
jected, but II had no effect whatever
upon the sufferer. ~
Mr.. Boyd remained rational almost
to the time Of his death. His death
throes were frightful, and those who
witnessed them will never forget II,
they say.
Mr.. Boyd was a prominent man In
the vicinity where he lived. He was
a member Of the Masonic fraternity
and that order had charge Of the fun
eral, which was largely attended. His
age was 4S years, and wife and two
children survive.
Mr.. Boyd was q cousin of Isaac
Dagger, and has other relatives In the
township where he formerly lived.

to warn the child nor stop the car.
Clement Delameter, who saw the
accident, said: II only know one way
that this accident could have been pre-
vented. The car should have had a
fender on the front. II this car had
been supplied with a fender the child
would have been picked up by It and
probably bruised a little but there
would have been no fatal results.
They have these tenders on cars in
other cities, and when person is
struck by car he is not hurt. There
have been good many accidents of
this kind, and they all could be pre-.
vented with little care, though do
not believe in this case the motorman
was to blame"
This seemed to be the opinion of
all the bystanders.' They all thought
a fender should be placed upon every
car to prevent q recurrence of such
accidents.
MOTORMAN'S STATEMENT.
Motorman Altman made a statement
of the accident to his company. He
said: II was coming up Tuscarawas
street and between the car and the
corner of Walnut street on the right
side were several carriages. l was
slowing up as came to the street to
let some passengers on. ! was not
running faster than two miles an hour.
As approached the corner I kept
ringing the bell and just then the lit,
tie girl came running out from be.
hind the carriages. J did not see her
until she was almost in front of the
car and then I yelled and rang the
bell again. reversed quickly and
stopped within the cars length. AT
the time had no power on but was
simply letting the car drift to the
corner"
The funeral services were held Fri
day afternoon at o'clock. The body
was taken directly from the morgue to
the Hebrew association cemetery, south
Of town. The services were read at
the grave.
