GAS famine IN AKRON.
Cold Weather Finds City With
Small Coal Supply and
Weak Gas Pressure.

Akron, o., Dec. 16.-The cold weather
was surprise to Akron people. They
were not prepared for it, and it foun9
many of them in bad shape. The poor
families suffered intensely, and coal
dealers were kept busy all day hauling
to those whose supply was short. There
has been a scarcity of coal here all
fall because the railroads could not
furnish cars enough to supply the de-
mand.
The railroad and street car lines Of
the city were crippled, but kept up a
fair service. Sunday night the ther-
mometer registered about zero at
o'clock.
During the afternoon the supply of
natural gas was very low, and many
who are dependent on that for their
heat and cooking are wondering what
their condition will be If the supply is
cut off entirely.

Speedily Avenged by Citizens

Akron, O., Dec. 16.--Barberton was
filled with excitement Saturday night
During the evening two men were seen
about the butcher shop Of Ed. Snyder,
on Cornell street. The proprietor
went across the street on an errand and
left the shop alone. This was what
they had been waiting for, and they en-
tered the place and each took three
hams and started for the door,
AS the last one was leaving he was
caught by Snyder, and asked to give
up the hams. A fight started and the
thief pulled knife. He made lunge
at the butcher and caught him across
the right arm between the wrist and
elbow. In the scuffle he made his es-
cape.
The noise attracted large crowd
and when the thief got away they
started in pursuit, led by Snyder and
Officer Boerstler. The fellow soon saw
that his pursuers were overtaking him.
He ran into the canal and hid behind
some bushes. He was standing in
water up to his neck.
Snyder and the officer pulled him out
but he still showed fight. The pur-
suers were so incensed at the cutting
that they took him from the officer
They beat him with their fists. clubs
and anything they could get. When
they had tired of this they turned him
over to the officer and he was locked
up. A doctor was called and worked
with the man about six hours Ibefore
he regained consciousness. He was
badly beaten and cut about the heat
and shoulders. The mans companion
escaped.
