Mrs. VIM. Hamlin, president of the
women managers for the Pan Ameri
can Exposition at Buffalo, was asked
recently why no special provision had
been made for women's work. She
said: "From first to last, it is the aim
of the exposition to make no classified
ton by sex. If a woman's work is wor.
thy of exhibition it should not be
placed in woman's building, exclu-
sive, any more than mans exhibit
should be placed in a mans building

Mr.. Walker Again to the Aid Of
i, Strikers.

BY the objection Of Council to an
item in the payroll ordinance atten-
ton was called Monday night to the,
Howard St, Sweeping Committee,
which is composed of City Civil Engi-
neer John w. Payne and .Messrs. 3D..
l.. Dodge and Frank Fiebeger. This
committee has power to act without
referring minor matters to Council,
and can also spend money for necesl
isary supplies. The item Yto which
Z Council objected was May & Fie-
beger, $142.25.' This, it was explain
ed came merely as courtesy from
the firm, as it had ordered street clean
ing equipment, and had even paid
for it, pending payment by the city,
However, it was ordered stricken out.
Two other bills Jared likewise. They
We're $65 due j. s. Highlander, for lum-
ber, and $50 due the Akron Water
Works Co., for flushing streets.
The city furnishes two men to help
keep Howard ST., clean, but they are
to be taken off, after this week, to
save expenses.
An ordinance was introduced NAM
ing street in the south western
part of the city, Diagonal. Heretofore,
it has been known as "Sherbondy
Road" and citizens claim that their
mail has been mixed with that of
Sherbondy people. Mr.. Seidell, of the
Street Committee, presented minor
ity report in favor of passing the ordi-
nance, and vote was taken on the
report. No majority report was pre-
sented. Finally the matter was laid
over until the next meeting.
Council approved the action of the
Board in awarding to the Brewster
Coal Co., the contract to furnish Goa
to this city during the coming year
The order includes 245 tons of sof,
nut coal, 80 tons of hard coal, and II
tons of soft lump.
Councilman Walker is a champion
Of the cause of the strikers. At tn,
last two meetings of the Council h,
has had matters affecting the strik,
discussed, and had action taken IL
both. AT the meeting two weeks ag,
he had an arbitration committee ap
pointed. Monday night, he wanted th
police to get after the Central Uniol
Co., for propping up an old pole il
South Akron, instead of putting in
new one. IF it falls down and hurt
somebody, Nll have Manager Drucke
miller arrested" he said. II believ
the company wants the pole to fal
down so it can find simething more t
blame on the strikers"
Citizen Sam Hibbs, of Dean ST., wa
present Monday night to again CON
plain against the conduct of the N. G
T. Co., on North Hill, and the negl
gence of the city in caring for tn
streets on the North Side. Mayo

Irving A. Tomlinson, referred to in the

widow, sought to recover from lrv-
ing A. Tomlinson, first reader of the
1 First Church of Christ, Scientists, in

| ground of alleged malpractice and
greement of the jury. 80 '
| One of the jurylnen said that the
vote stood 8 to 4 in favor of the plain

Lack of ordinary knowledge and skill

intent, We're charged by the prosecu'
ton, while the defense asserted that
Mr. TomlinsOn practised in strict ac'
/ cordance with Christian Science teach

| ical knowledge as commonly under
stood, and expected from regular ply
sicians, and that Mrs. Spead sought
his services with Il full knowledge OF
| what treatment she was to receive
prayer to God for her healing.
The trend of the Judges charge was
that Mr.. Tomlinson was called upor
only to follow the generally accepted
practices of Christian Science and that
unless he went outside this prescribed
province he was not liable.
Before moving for new trial the
prosecution will ask the supreme
Court to pass upon necessary law
points as to how far a Christian Sci
ence healer may be liable for not us
ing along with his school of practice
what by common knowledge are known
to be necessary precautions in treat
