Egg Eating Contest.

Chardon o., April "A remarkable
eating contest took place at Montville,
Monday. Carl Roberts, a young farn,-
er, made a wager with Misses Clio Full
Ter, May Vansise, and Edith Roberts.
of this place, by the terms Of which he
was to devour more eggs in given
length of time than the three girls COM
bined. Three dozen eggs were pre-
pared. At the expiration of the stated
time Roberts had seventeen eggs to his
credit, while the girls had disposed of
the remaining nineteen. Roberts, how
ever, refused to acknowledge his defeat
on the grounds that he was only pre-
vented from winning by the fact that
the egg supply was exhausted, and
claimed he was good for at least a
half dozen more.
The question will probably be settled
by another contest in the near future.

HOT. FIGHT
AT CAPITAL
Bitter Campaign n Results
In Election Of
H|NKLE FOR MAYOR
Outcome Is Gratifying to lentz,
Who Was the Target For
the Opposition
Party.
From a Staff Correspondent.

From Staff Correspondent.
Columbus, April 2.--John G. Hinkle,
Democrat, defeated Henry G, Taylor,
Republican, for mayor of Columbus,
Monday, In fight said to be the hot
test and bitterest political contest ever
waged in the city. Hinkle's majority
approximates 500. John J. Lentz was
the leader of the Democratic forces
and the result is particularly crafty
ing to him, as he was made the target
Of the opposition. The Republicans
were confident of winning and are
amazed at their defeat. Governor
Nash and other state officials worked
hard for Taylor's election for the eff.
feet 1t would have on the November
election. This county and district will
elect four representatives and two SEN
ators this year and the Republicans
have been working to control these
offices. The Republicans attribute de-
feat to the light vote cast by their
party. The present city administration
is Republican and the mismanagement
Of Mayor Swartz hurt Taylor's candi-
dacy. There were issues galore, the
principal one being the Scent fare
question upon which Hinkle made his
fight. The present city government
was accused of selling out to the street
railway company and the finger Of sus-
picion was also directed against num-
ber of councilmen as having hand
in the deal. These things were used
to an advantage by Hinkle and his fol
lowers and they undoubtedly had con-
siderable effect on the election. Many
interpret the result as an endorsement
of the movement to make Lentz gu.
bernatorial candidate. although only
several days ago that gentleman said
he would not stand in Colonel Kill
bourne's way for this nomination.

Brother and Walked Away,
Near Sunbury, Pa.

Sunbury, Pa, April 3.-A double
murder was committed at Klines.

miles from this city. The murderer
is John Gulick, aged 32 years, and his
victims are his mother, Mrs. Amy
Gulick, aged 6S years, and his brother,
Phillip, aged 27.
After committing the terrible crime
Gulick coolly placed the smoking re.
volver in his pocket and walked off
in the direction of Danville.
Harry Moore, living on an adjoin.
ing farm, heard the shots and hasten
ed to the Gulick home. The mother
was found lying on the floor of the
kitchen and the son was found in the
barnyard with a bullet hole near his
heart. Both had been instantly
killed. What led to the commission
of the crime could not be learned
The murderer is still at large.

Saved Her Sisters Life.

Akron, O., April 2.-The life of little
Hazel Bradley was saved by the heroic
sacrifice of her fourteen year old sister
Emma. New Years Eve the childs
dress caught fire from the crate and she
was frightfully burned. DR.. j. w. ALL
port announced that the only chance
in a hundred to save the child's life
was by skin-drafting. He asked If there
was any one willing to sacrifice cuticle
to save the life of the little girl. Emma
stepped forward saying she was willing
to undergo the pain and gave her own
flesh to save her sister. Four hun.
dred and twenty pieces of skin have
been drafted on to the injured child
and 1t is only matter of q few days
until Hazel will be as well as ever.

GEORGE T. BLAKE.

An effort had been made by several
parties in Stark county to get the state
board to reduce the valuation returned
by the appraisers but there was no con-
certed action and the matter has now
been passed upon. Cashier Louis A..
Loichot, of the First National bank,
representing the board of trade, had
several conferences with w. b. Craw
ford, of Carroll county, the member
from the 21st senatorial district, on
the state board Of equalization. Mr..
Loichot stated Tuesday afternoon that
at these conferences it was pointed
out that there was little likelihood of
securing a reduction of the valuation,
but that the tendency was to increase,
and he thought it would be wisdom on
the part of Stark county people not
o agitate the matter. Mr.. Loichot says
that for that reason it was not seriously
agitated.

THE EIGHTH
WILL ENTER
Military Tournament at
the State Fair.
GENEROUS PRIZES
viii be Awarded Best Drilled
Companies--Co c
OF Canton Will
Compete.

From Staff Correspondent.
Columbus, April IA new feature at
the state fair this year will be military
day, which will probably be great at.
traction. Prizes aggregating $4,000 in
value will be given to the best drilled
companies and battalions. Every mill
tary organization in the Ohio national
guard will be invited to compete in the
contests. 1t Is safe to say that the
Eighth regiment will enter the lists.
For a number of years Company ID, of
Wooster, has been considered the crack
command of the Eighth and it will
make other competitors hustle If it en-
ters the state tournament. The third
battalion of the regiment, formerly
known as "Weybrecht's bull dogs"
has always maintained a high degree
of proficiency in the execution of mill
tary movements, and, without dis
paragement to the other two battallons,
would be good body to send to repre-
sent the Eighth at the contests. Invita-
tions to take part in the tournament
will be mailed shortly to the various
regimental commanders. The battalion
of the Fourth regiment which Is located
at the state capital has served notice

but this confession will hardly have a
discouraging effect on other competi-
tors.
Colonel W. l.. Curry state commits
sioner of soldiers claims, has issued a
circular warning old soldiers against
swlndfers who claim they can secure
land grants for them when reserya-
tions are opened in Oklahoma. Fol-
lowing is a synopsis of the circular:
81 have information that when the
Cherokee strip was opened, agents who
pretended that they could file great
many claims for ex-soldiers, were COM
PEELED to form in line the same as all
other persons and could only make one
entry and were then required to fall
in at the left of the line and take their
chances again TO file another claim.
In the meantime, perhaps, hundreds Of
claims had been filed and they had to
take the chances with all other per-
sons who are making declarations.
"Some of these agents have also been
making an effort to purchase discharges
from soldiers or from their widows
and there is no doubt that they intend
filing declarations on these discharges
and all soldiers should be on the lool;..
out for such fraudulent propositions
81 would advise all soldiers who con-
template taking UP lands in these res
ervations when opened for settlement
to investigate the matter very care
fully before making any investments
with agents who are strangers. If a
soldier has made up his mind to take
up a homestead claim and feels that he
can endure the fatigue which 1t will
be necessary to undergo at the time of
the opening, in my opinion it would be
much better to be on the ground few
weeks before the opening and look af-
ter the matter personally"

st. Petersburg, April at was ru-
mored several days ago, but gener-
ally disbelieved, that Count Leo

sia because of the attempted assas-
sination Of Privy Councillor Po-
biedonostzeff, chief procurator of the
Holy Synod, who was shot at early
in the morning of March % while sit
ting in his study, the attempt being
attributed to q desire for revenge
growing out of the accommodation
Of Count Tolstoi.
Owing to the indefiniteness Of the
rumor 1t was disregarded by the cor
respondent here Of the Associated

respondent has received a private let
ter from q usually Trustworthy source
in Wilma, capital Of the government
of that name, saying that Count Toll
