GFiOULS
Who Rob Graves
Of The Dead.
They Are Seldom En-
countered Hereabout
Where Burglar Proof
Caskets Are Sold.
A Few Requests Made For Them
In Akron.

care burglar proof caskets much in
demand?" asked a Democrat reporter
of representative of a concern which
manufactures those shudder-inspiring
goods.
"Not in Akron" said he, "and not
much in this particular locality. But
there are sections in which we sell
many of them. Most of them go to the
country or to the smaller rural cities.
Millersburg in Holmes county affords
one good market"
Investigating the subject for himself,
the reporter discovered that very rare
ly indeed is a burglar-proof casket ask
ed for in the establishment of local un-
dertakers. Occasionally such a re-
quest is received.
A more common request here is that
graves be walled with brick and the
vault for the casket covered with flag
ging. This serves two purposes-keep-
ing the casket dry and keeping out
the ghouls who would carry off the
bodies of the dead.
In nine cases out of ten it is fear of
"body -snatchers" which impels friends
of those who have passed beyond to
ask for burglar-proof caskets in which
to inter the clay of those who were
dear to them. Grave-robbing il not a
common crime, however, and ordinar-
lily not lucrative one. Certain it is,
however, that the discovery that a
grave has been robbed of its dead
causes a decided increase of the bus
mess of the burglar-proof casket man
ufacturer in the community in which
such a crime has been committed.

RIDER
Did Not Make a Wise
Wager.
Ten Miles a Day In Worst Months
OF the Year.

TO the Editor Of the Democrat:
have noticed that a certain Akron
bicycle rider is riding out in the coun-
try surrounding Akron, almost every
night; sometimes after dark he would
ride down the road from our place,
then turn around and come back, this
being about four miles out of the city.
The roads being in the worst Of con-
dition, the perseverance of the rider
aroused our curiosity.
1t happened that one evening he stop
ped at our place and asked me for a
peck of oats. After | got them for
him he took a knife and cut an open
ing in the tire which he had punctured,
and stuffed it with oats, after which
he tied the hole up with rag and
was off again. He said that some Ak
ron men made bet, one betting that
a person could not ride on the country
roads around Akron at the rate OF
ten miles per day for the first three
months of the year. He claimed that
he did not dare ride more than
thirteen miles on any day nor
less than seven, and also that if he
punctured a tire out on the road he
would have to ride home as best he
could.
l think that some one ought to no.
tify humane agent to stop the boy,
as he has to suffer very much, and like
boy, he refuses to quit.

HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid Increase
of Heart Trouble.

Some Facts Regarding the Rapid Increase
of Heart Trouble.
Heart trouble, at least among the
Americans. is certainly increasing and
while this may be largely due to the
excitement and worry of American bus
mess life, it is more often the result
of weak stomachs, of poor digestion.
Real organic disease is incurable;
but not one case in hundred of heart
trouble is organic.
The close relation between heart trou.
BILE and poor digestion is because both
organs are controlled by the same
great nerves, the Sympathetic and
Pneumogastric.
In another way, also the heart is af-
fected by the form of poor digestion,
which causes gas and fermentation
from half digested food. There is a
feeling of oppression and heaviness
in the chest caused by pressure Of the
distended stomach on the heart and
lungs, interfering with their action,
hence arises palpitation and short
breath.
Poor digestion also posons the
blood, making it thin and watery,
which irritates and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for
heart trouble is to improve the diges-
ton and to insure the promp assimila-
ton of food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals of some safe, pleasant ard
effective digestive preparation, like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which may
be found at most drug stores, and
which contain valuable, harmless di-
gestive elements in pleasant, conven.
lent form.
1t is safe to say that the regular per.
sistent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets at meal time will cure any form
of stomach trouble except cancer OF
the stomach. l +
Full sized package Of these tablets
sold by druggists at so cents. Little
book on stomach troubles mailed free.

BAD MAN.
John Lacey Sent

Drew Knife on an
Officer.
Pulled Out From Under
a Bed.
Row and Excitement In
| East Akron.
Arthur Craig Charged With
Burglary.

John Lacey, under indictments on
charge of riOting, created a disturb
ance in East Akron Thursday evening,
was dragged out from in under bed
where he had hidden and on Friday
sent to the workhouse
Detective Smith of the Wheeling &
Lake Erie railroad accompanied by
the marshal of Mogadore, came to Ak
ron Thursday afternoon to arrest Ar
thur Craig on charge of burglarizing
w. & l.. u. stations last Saturday
night. They found their man on East
Market st. A considerable crowd gath
cred as they arrested him, among
which was Lacey. The latter went up
to the officer and demanded Craig's re-
lease. He was told to go away, and
then drew knife, it is alleged. The
officer rushed his prisoner into store
and Lacey followed, using foul Ian
guage.
Officer Edward Heeber ran to the
place and arrested Lacey. He took
him to the patrol box and as the otti-
Ger was calling the wagon, Lacey
broke away and ran. The officer pur-
the fugitives direction without other
result than to quicken Lacey's legs so
much that he distanced the officers.
Much excitement was caused by the
shooting and commotion.
At II o'clock Officers Murray and Hee-
Der went to the home of Lacey's wife
on Johnston st. and were Informed that
he was not there. They insisted on
searching and discovered their man
under bed upstairs.
Lacey was sullen and defiant in Po.
lice Court Friday, but pleaded guilty.
'It is such acts as yours that incite
riot" the Mayor told him. 'In this
part of Ohio men cannot take the law
into their own hands. We have hau
one dear experience at that. I'll i'm
pose a sentence of sos and costs and
80 days in the workhouse."
Lacey sadly shook his head as he
took his seat beside his wife.
Craig was taken to Ravenna Thurs
day evening. He obtained his release
