The Presidents s Name.

The name OF the president of the
United States is somewhat of a
stumbling block to those who have
not informed themselves as to its
orthoepy. Some pronounce it Roos-
welt, others ROOSEVELT, others Roosha-
vault, Roosevelt, and SO on IN great
variety. The president himself, and
all members of the Roosevelt family,
who ought to be taken as authority on
the subject, pronounce it as if spelled
Rose-a-velt with the accent on the
first syllable.

THEAEW AIR Time
WILL CUT OUT The small TOWNS.
Present Route Will be Used for
Freight Business Exclusive.
Iy, II Is Said.

For some time past 1t has been ru-
mored that the Pennsylvania Railroad
company has been making plans for
putting an air line route through on
this division from Pittaburg to Chicago
for the passenger business. A number
of years ago, it is stated. the company
made a survey for the proposed shorter
passenger route, but 1t was dropped on
account of hard times. Now comes the
nforma ton that the surveyors and en-
gineers of the company are at work
laying out the route afresh between
Mansfield and Canton. 1t is stated that
he proposed line will be practically
straight between here and Mansfield
md will cut out the smaller towns be-
ween here and there. Also that the
'utting out of this big curve which the
DAD makes West of here will save the
company a haul Of between thirty and
'orty miles. The present line will be
;ept for the use of the freight business.
When approached upon the subject the
ocal Pennsylvania officials were very
lose -mouthed and professed total igno-
rance of the matter.
