DEMENTED MAN
Makes Ridiculous Charges
Against Prominent Akron
Officials.

Akron, March 21.-Wm. II. Buchtel, a
man 80 years Of age, came into the
mayors office this morning and wanted
him to cause the arrest of Judge J. A.
Kohler, County Auditor s. e. Sifler,
County Recorder w. Alling, and Frank
King, charging them with tampering
with the books in the recorders Office.
It developed that there was nothing in
the accusation as the man is apparently
insane. 1t. appears that a few years
ago he sold a railroad campany, some
land, but they took more than. they
we're decided, and this has worried him
considerably. Buchtel was twice ad-
judged insane, but this is the most
peculiar attack that he has ever had.
He also said that Judge Kohler, who
left few days ago on a pleasure trip
through California, left the town to
escape arrest.

CANTON
MARKETS
The Finest Of Lake Fish
Are Arriving Daily.
GRAIN IS UNCHANGED
Large qua ntities Are Annually
Shipped Into Canton--The
Same 10 True Of All
Grades Of Flour, -

The spring catch of lake fish Is In
the local markets and the result is that
Canton citizens are being supplied with
an. excellent quality without any in
crease in price. Prices are expected
to go lower in q short time. Canton
consumes large quantities of fresh fish.
The grain markets rule steady at
unchanged prices. Very little is Of
fered from country wagons, and mili'
ers and dealers are compelled to ship
in large quantities of all kinds Of grain
to supply the local demand. The same
is true of -four. Thousands of barrels
are annually shipped into Canton from
outside mills, local mills not having
capacity sufficient to meet the needs
of the city. No variation in the price
of flour is reported. Quotations run
from 81 to s1.40 per sack Of 48 pounds.
The higher prices are asked for spring
wheat -four that goes under the name
of fancy patents. There Is a good
demand for the grade.

Anthracite Coal Trade.

The hard coal trade is showing sur

noted in this column, the real test of
the plans formulated this year will
not come until late in July or August.
At present demand is holding up we'll
and production is liberal. The official
estimate of the output for May is
4,674,1O7 tons as compared with s.
6S5,O13 tons for April and 3,SS4,OOO tons
for May, 1900, showing an increase Of
1,1l1,O0I tons. 1t is altogether likely
that as demand falls off the COM

There Is nothing to show that there
will be any weakness of prices; in

Trade in the Lake Superior coun-

JAPANESE FERNS BALLS.
Instructions How to Care for Them
to Obtain the Best Growth.

Many women appear to have some
doubts about the ease of caring for
the pretty little Japanese fern balls
so popular within the last few years.
There is nothing that will give better
returns for less care and money. The
average price of the fern ball now is
so cents dry and ~ cents started; they
can be found for less. To start them
they should be put into a big dish or
tub in which they can he entirely
covered with water and left for sew
eral hours, or possibly over night
After this they must be hung over
something for n time, as they will
drip little, but they must never
afterward be soaked so thoroughly.
woman who has had one of these
balls for the past three years made
the mistake the first year of putting
her ball to soak i'm set bowl fun of

roots rotted and dropped off, This
will happen more or less every year

when ii seemed To need il, once in a
day or two, or more often in warm,
dry weather. A ball may need two
sprinklngs twice day if 1t is hang
