Amicable ReIationsH Have
Been Restored.
ENGLAND and RUSSIA
The Dispute Over the Railroad
Siding was Caused by the
0upIieity of the
Chinese.

News Democrat Leased Wire Service.
London, March 19.-Trouble between
Russia and England over the railway
siding has been settled. The misun.
derstanding was due to Chinese du-
plicity.
The Times this morning makes the
following announcement: 1--WE learn
that Count Won Waldersee has inter.
fered, as commander-in-chief of the
allied forces in China, to put an end to
the mutually hostile attitude Of the
British and Russian troops at Tien
Tsin."
The officials of the British foreign
office have not yet received official
confirmation of Russia's alleged back.
down in regard to Manchuria, Turke-
stan and Mongolia, and inquiries on
the subject are now being made at st
Petersburg and Peking. The British
foreign Office is not relaxing its efforts
to secure a more satisfactory state
ment of the intentions of Russia, but
the officials deprecate the British press
agitation on the subject. On ali sides
1t is officially and otherwise said that
Great Britain has not the slightest con.
temptation of resorting to hostilities
against Russia, whatever may be the
outcome of the present negotiations.

the amusements put on will be one OF
the objects of the management, SO that
nothing Objectionable will be permitted,
and 1t is expected that those who attend
will at all times be pleased with the
amusements furnished.
"The Casino on the north side of the
lake will continue under the manage
ment of Mr.. Charles Sliker, who gave
so deservedly a popular service at that
beautiful place last year.
"The ubiquitous merry-go-round will
be in evidence for the children and
grown people also, who enjoy 1t, but
something very much better than has
heretofore been at the lake, will be
provided for the company's patrons. A
building especially for 1t, will be erect
ed, and the best merry-go-round with
camels, reindeers, Arabian horses, etc.,
will be ready for those who desire good
mounts
"The double track from the lake juno
ton in to the lake will be completed
Just as soon as the weather will permit.
A loop will be put In at the lake end, so
that with the loop around the court
house at Canton, the old trouble of slow
service will be thing of the past, and
it is expected that large crowds can be
handled with expedition and much
comfort to patrons. The light section
rails in the present lake track will be
discarded and new 60 pound rails put
in their place.
"The company will also extend their
line from Massillon to the village of
Navarro in the early spring; the rails
and other material for that extension
have already been contracted for.
Two new inter-urban cars to run be-
tween Canton and Massillon have been
contracted for. They will be of the
very latest and best type, equipped with
four motors each, so that high speed
can be maintained. Heavy trolley wire
will be put in place on the inter-urban
division, so as to supply stronger cur
rent than the company has heretofore
been able to maintain. Additional
generators and boilers will be put in the
Canton power house to increase its ca
pacity to take care of the larger busi-
ness that is coming upon the company.
"The curves at North and Market
streets, North and Cleveland avenue,
| Feather street, Mahoning street and
Cherry street will be replaced within
the next sixty days by new ones. The
company has found they made a mis-
take in undertaking to save the old
ones. The new curves will give the
same smooth service as Is now had on
the balance of the track.
| can additional lot of open motor cars
will be put into the summer service.
When the changes and improve
ments, indicated by Mr.. Fogle in his in
| terview with the reporter, are complet-
ed, and others that are also contem-
plated, the Canton-Massillon system
will certainly be in fine condition to
give excellent service and satisfaction
| to its patrons.

ing in the story going the rounds of the
press in eastern Ohio that he is plan
ming trip to the Pacific coast for the
Eighth regiment, to attend the launch
ing of the battleship Ohio in May. He
pronounces absurd the report. 1t would
cost at least $50 for every man in the
regiment to take the trip, and as each
individual would have to put up this
sum, it is as good as certain the or
ganization will stay at home. Until
interviewed by a News-Democrat rep
resentative General Gyger had not dis
cussed with any one the propriety of
the Eighth's attendance at the launch
ing of the famous battleship, and he
cannot conceive how such report was
given currency. He was visably an
noyed over the incident. He also dis
claimed knowledge of any intention to
place an ambulance for the regiment at
Canton.

anything and everything in the way of

pigs On the margin of her arithmetic,
all around the pictures of the village
blacksmith in the Second Reader, were
pigs-whole professions of them, tum-
bling, scramb bling, pigs en- masse, pigs sin
gle; and other animals, too, some of
them entirely unknown to the world Of
science, strange looking creatures, but all
in proportion, were drawn.
Later. when her mother beganJ to add
inches to the length of her skirt and she
tied blue ribbons on her dignified mar
guerite braids, her chief delight was to
visit the Zoo. The old Woodward Car
Hens was 81 favOrite resort and there she
sketched lions in all their glory. 1t was
said that even at that time, and this quail
ity is now very pronounced fact, she
seemed to possess a sort of magnetic in
huence over the animal kingdom and
could, and frequently did. put her hands
through the bars to pat the beasts with
perfect safety.
As the years passed and her love for art
did not abate. it was decided by her par
ents to give her a course of instruction.
Here in San Francisco she studied in the

ress. At an exhibition of the local artists
her picture of a horse captured the gold
medal offered by Mr. William AlvOrd as

years study, she had two pictures ad-
mitted at the Salon.
In Paris Miss Lotz studied for scme
time in the Julian Academy later under
Van Marcke, but her work, unlike that
of Van Marcke. who is renowned as a
colorist. seems to be influenced more by
that of Rosa BOnheur. who. from the first.
was to Miss LotZ faithful friend and a
valuable adviser. Up to the day Of Miss
Bonheur's death these two artists were
firm friends and daily associates. Miss
Lotz, like her friend, early decided not u
wed, fancying that a divided attention
would be a drawback in her chosen and
much-ioved art. 50. while she always has
