DISCOVERED
New Facts In Thinner
mans Case.
A Columbus Paper Has Been
MisIed by Some One.

Regarding Chas. Zimmerman, Sum-
nit county prisoner in the penitentlary,
the Columbus Dispatch has made and
publishes the following interesting dis
coveries:
Charles Zimmerman is paying a
fearful penalty for one mistake, com
mitted under great excitement He Is
almost beside himself with grief at the
calamity brought on his family, while
his wife is literally worrying herself
to death in the Stark county infirmary,
and 1t is feared that she will not live
long enough 10 see her husband a free
man again. The wife spent all she
had trying to save her husband from
the penltentiary and now without
funds or friends she is an inmate of a
county institution. But that is not all
her trouble, for she is the mother OF
three children, one at the breast and
two others outcasts on the world and
trying their best to keep soul and body
together, and all that calamity was
brought on by the husband becoming
excited and joining the mob that burned
the city hall in Akron. Zimmerman
exhibited more bravery than some of

Restaurant Keeper Drops
a Few Remarks.
Cheap Breakfasts and Dinners, But Substantial
and Bountiful Suppers.

"Did you notice what that fellow

restaurant Keeper Monday morning Of
a Democrat reporter.
The gentleman referred to was a
young unmarried business. man, pros
porous and well able, were he so in
clined, to buy hot mullins, porterhouse
steak and eat off hot plates-or even
have his breakfast served in his room
and the reporter being interested, re-
marked, mo, not particularly; what
did he eatY'
Rolls and coffee--10 cents"
"Yes-and you'd be surprised were
you to follow him through the day.
At noon he's too busy to eat and he

couple of fried eggs and some bread

No cheap spread for Oscar then. 1t
not infrequently costs him 40 cents.
''That's good description of how
half my customers eat during the day.
They generally hold good positions,
and get up little bit late every morn

the breakfast program to make sched-

Brunswick Man Died Because

Brunswick township, Medina county,
dropped dead in front of his home,
from heart failure. The G. & S. railroad
passes his house, and in grading the

of necessity very busy, and apparently
scarcely care to eat, and as l said be-
fore, supper must be their big meal.
II should estimate that the majority
of young men who patronize me spend
little more than 80 cents day for
substantial food-10 cents for break
fast, 10 cents for dinner and % cents
for supper"
Investigation will show that the man
spoke truthfully. Good boarding
houses, where room and board may
both be obtained, are scarce, and con-
sequently the restaurants-the good
ones-do a thriving business in Ak
ron. Many people board there regular
ly, and, of course, large number Of
downtown business men whose homes
are too far away to permit them to
go home for dinner every day, take
their MONDAY lunches at the restaur-
ants. Sit sst13 fssE
There are many lodging houses in
Akron that make no pretense at fur
nishing meals to their roomers, not
even breakfast, and considering that
there is great army of young peo-
pie working here, whose homes are
elsewhere, it will be seen that the
restaurant keeper is no small citizen
in this city.

WASHINGTON SPOKE.
Session of the National Negro Busi-
 ness League,

Chicago. Aug. 2.-The second annual session of the National Negro Business League opened today. Its object is to bring together for counsel negro men and women who are engaged in some business or industry and to encour- age the establishment of new enter prises. Delegates are present from over thirty States.
 President Booker T. Washington in his opening address said In part:
 As a race we must learn more and more that the opinion of the world re- garding us Is not influenced by what we may say of ourselves. or by what others say of us. but it is permanently influenced by actual, tangible, visible results. The object lesson of one hon. est negro succeeding magnif1cently in each community in some business or industry. Is worth a hundred abstract speeches in securing opportunity for the race.
 In the South as in most parts of the world. the negro who does something and possess something Is respected by both races. Usefulness in the com munity where we live will constituta our most lasting and potent protection
 We want to learn the lesson of small things and small beginnings. We must not feel ourselves above the most hum ble occupation or the simple, humble being. If our vision is clear, our will

BREACHES WITH ACCEPTANCE. Philadelphia Has 8 Woman Who
 Fills a Prominent Pulpit Regularly

FILE d 1IouAAACAb 0ARAS @Sc6 s~A0~AJ
 The church home of the only woman minister in Philadelphia, is the little meeting house of the Second Assocta- tion of Spiritualists at Front and Thompson Streets. There Mrs. Renouf Palmer has been preaching for the last three months, but so unostentatious has she been that her unique position has attracted but little attention from the outside world.
 Mrs. Palmer is a bitter foe to Spirit ualism as generally understood. She has waged relentless war against me diums who live by frauds and she hopes some day to have her own church in that city where she can teach what she considers the true Spiritualism.
 Mrs. Palmer's experience has been wide. As a young girl she took lead ing part in the rS@rk of the Methodist Church; she has tried most churches since then and now believes that she has found the true one. Her view Of life and it's under side is far from mar row. She has worked in Jerry McAu- ley's mission at Five Points. at Booths mission, at the naval hospital Tn Brooklyn and at Cobb dock among the sailors. All this experience she has to draw from when she enters the pulpit: Mrs. Palmer has been a prominent Spiritualist for some years. She was ordained on Dec. 25. 1892, at Trenton, and since then has made herself ex- tremely unpopular by Ter unremitting efforts to stamp out fraud and expose dishonest mediums.

BATTLED WITH A RATrLER.

 Washington Star.
 Among the curios. souvenirs and rel ics from plain and forest. mountain top and canyon, which lend themselves to the decoration of the room occupied by Henry c. Rizer, Chief Clerk of the Geological Survey. is the dressed skin of a rattlesnake. The rattler's claim to fame Is that he sought to create vacancy in the survey. He failed to do this. but he did what he could. He died in the attempt. The incident in which this particular snake figured oc- cured when a force from the Geo.ogi- cal Survey was engaged in making survey of Indian Territory a. the in- stance of the General Land office. That was several years ago. One of the sur veying parties was at work in Q sec- tion Of the Territory in which rattlers were numerous. Calculation was made by a member of the party that if the ratio of rattlers to the area assigned to him were applied to the area of the whole Territory the rattler population of Indian Territory was 3.00e snakes to the square mile.
 This man. in the course of his work, sprang across a tiny stream ore day, and striking the other side of IL. planted one foot directly upon the neck of a six-foot rattler. 1t was un acci- dent, the man not having seen the snake. and not having designed to dis turb it. It was also a fortuna-e sccl- dent. so far as the man was concerned, that he landed on the neck of the snake. It is said that the rattler was vlslbly affected. and that his emotions took on an angry turn. He writhed ard buzzed and strained in his efforts to coil into an attitude in which he might strike. He made. it is said. heroic ef- forts anyway to bite his oLpressor. The trespasser dared not move. but called for help. A co-worker came to his aid. bringing an ax, and with this weapon the snakes head was severed The skin was dressed and presented to Mir. Rizer. It Is now stretched on the mantel of the office of the chief clerk.

THE STORY OF A CAR.
It Belonged to the Montgomery Street Railroad and Got Off
 the Track

This Is not a new story. It Is about a street car which got off the rails it was accustomed to traverse, blockaded traffic and caused numerous passen- gers and other citizens much inconven- fence. The scene was Montgomery. The thoroughfare Madison Avenue. The car was actually owned by the Mont gomery Street Railroad Company.
 The reason for this incident? Listen: Yesterday morning an empioye of the aforesaid street railroad company stood upon a street corner and taunted an humble scribe of The Advertiser.
 You'll have nothing to write about tonight" said the man who divides dividends With the car company, as he laughed in gIee Nothing has hap pened today and nothing will happen" |"
 The pencil-pusher took no umorage at the mirth of the railroad man, know ing full well that the confidence dis played was without foundation.
 Eleven o'clock came and the cars were rumbling through the streets. Then F o'clock came and there were some more cars. One o'clock came about and the public began to do some waiting for a Belt Line car. The public waited, but the familiar ramshackle affairs yclept cars, did not appear.
 Then it was reported that nearly all of the cars on the belt line were doing some waiting near the corner of Bain- bridge Street and Madison Avenue. A car on this line, flied with passengers, true to custom established by the Mont gomery Street Railroad. went off the track and did some stunts in the street. Other cars came along, but could not get by. The wait wAs only about forty minutes, but 1t was long enough to convince the passengers that the Mont gomery Street Railroad Company is not a success.
 It has been suggested that three or four repairers with the implements commonly called jacks" should be sent along with cars of the street rail- road company so that when the ve- hicles refuse to do business on the tracks they might be righted within thirty minutes. One hour Is a pretty good while to wait
 The confident employe of the street railroad company Is hereby informed that there was something to write about" last night. If day should pass without inconvenience to the public by the street railroad company 1t will be recorded by The Advertiser.
