dent established by one patient in New
York recently, as much as sixteen days
more or fifty days in all. Thus far her
weight has reduced from 119 pounds to
81 pounds. Otherwise the effects of the
fasting have to all appearances been
beneficial
Il am convinced said Mr.. Ferguson,
that the fasting process alone will
cure what some Of the best specialists
nthe country have failed to cure. My
wife was in a serious condition when
she left off eating. just thirty-four days
ago, while today she is able to work
about the house and take long walks.
She has positively eaten nothing in the
way of food or drank anything other
than water for the period stated. We
have no doctor nor any drugs, having
become convinced that drugs are of no
account in such a case as hers. OF
course it is necessary TO watch her con-
dition very closely, and if it became
necessary stimulants or nourishment
would be given at once. However, the
indications are that the result of her
long fasting will be in every way bene-
ficial.''
A plot on the part of two desperate
prisoners at the state prison to get out
of that place of confinement was dis
covered by Andrew IRE. one of the
guards, last Monday. Otherwise sew
eral desperate criminals would now in
all probability be at large. The work
was centered in the cells occupied by
Frank Dayton. a desperate thug, and
Harry Waddell, who is serving for as
sault. In some manner the two had
secured possession of a steel bit with
which they were boring into the bars
of their cells. To ali appearances the
work had been going on unnoticed for
several days. A delay of a few more
days in discovering the work would
have given the pair time to get out of
their cells, and at a favorable oppor-
tunity to make good their escape over
the walls in the night. The evidences
of the work were concealed by.the use
of white bad which the men had Sc
cured in some unknown manner. They
were at once securely quartered in soli-
tary confinement.

That Fra nchise Of Com

Mansfield, o., March Pa suit has
been filed in common pleas court here
by Ralph S. Teeple a taxpayer, against
the Central Union Telephone COM
pany asking that the company's fran
chise be forfeited,
Mr.. Teeple in his petition states
that the Midland Telephone company

Mansfield, June %, 1882, to erect and
maintain telephone system. The
petitioner alleges that the Central

the system is not what it should be,
but made up of poor and insufficient

leases at an exorbitant rate.
An independent telephone system,

will result in a telephone war between
the Central Union and the Mansfield

IS TO Be A MATINEE
Participated In by Bernhardt e
and the Coquelins--Charac-
teristic Letter From
Judge HoIme.

More details are coming from Paris
concerning the big benefit entertain
ment for the Mckinley memorial fund
to be participated in by all the big
theatrical and operate stars of the
Republic across the sea. Judge Lei
cester Holme, who has charge of the
work, has written that he has secured
the acceptances OF Bernhardt, the two
Coquelins, Jean de Reszke, Victor
Maurel and Mile. Ackte.
The affair is to take place on the
afternoon of April 16. Judge Holme
has been graciously received by the
great artists whom he has asked to
donate their services. In a letter re-
ceived by Mr.. Hartzell this morning,
Judge Holme says:
Yesterday l saw Sarah Bernhardt.
She received me at the theatre in her
wonderful green room, or more prop
erly speaking, yellow room, and in a
conversation lasting some time, mani
tested her affection for the American
people and said that she would do any
thing she could and regretted the sad
occasion that calls it out.
II have now the acceptances of var
ious people: Coquelin Aine, Coquelin
Cadet, Jean de Reszke, Victor Maurel,
Mile Bernhard, Mile. Ackti This is
the cream of the talent abroad.
"Coquelin Aine has just been desig-
mated by the German emperor as the
| foremost actor of the world. l know
of not one in his line that can come
anywhere near him, and the prompt
reply that he sends in answer to my
letter shows at once the greatness~and
simplicity of big Drained man. As
comedians his brother, Coquelin Cadet
and himself are the idols of the French
| people, and as comedians the French
have no peers.
Jean de Reszke is probably today
the most generally accepted leading
tenor of the world and has rarely, II
ever, sang at any afternoon entertain
ment except in his operate engage,
ments. His contribution will be ap-
preciated by Americans.

Canton Company From
Shipping Goods.
.DODG|NG BACK TAXES
Is the Charge Against Canton
Wholesale Notion Company
Goods on Board
of Cars.

Auditor Reed, acting for the county,
Monday shortly after noon took out an
injunction to restrain the Canton
Wholesale Notion company from re-
moving their goods from the county
until the question of back taxes has
been investigated and settled. The
Injunction also denies the Wheeling &
Lake Erie Railway company the privi-
lege of moving the cars in which the
goods were being placed preparatory to
their shipment to Cleveland.
Deputy Sheriff Harvey Zaiser served
both the parties to the action with no
tees, and some of the goods are still
in the store in North Market street
and some in the cars at the Wheeling
sidetrack.
The petition sets forth the fact that
for the last four or five years the no.
ton company has been returning its
stock for taxation at much less value
than it should have been returned.
Their entire stock is on the duplicate
for 81 200, and 1t is claimed that the
true value is many times that amount.
The auditor alleges that notice
was served upon the company, through
its secretary, Isadore Sands, notifying
them to appear at the auditors Office
on March %, 1902, and give testimony
as to the true value of their stock.
This the company refused to do and
commenced prearations 70 remove the
goods to Cleveland. 1t was claimed
that these shipments would so deplete
the stock so that there would not be
sufficient to satisfy the claim of the
county for back taxes.
The auditor was required to give
bond in the sum of 81 200 to indemnify
the company against loss in case the
county did not find sufficient grounds
for the action.
Prosecuting Attorney Day prepared
and filed the petition.
