The Defeat Which
Came to Him.
"Norton Has Not Been
With the Party"
Says the Democratic State
Chairman.

Columbus, O., Nov. 10-W. ]. Frey,
chairman of the Democratic State
Central committee, in an authorized in
terview here, declared that Congress
man Norton. of the Thirteenth district
deserved the defeat administered last
Tuesday. He said further that, in his
opinion, Tom johnson had no desire to
run for the Governorship, but that his
ambition is to make the race for the
Presidency. Chairman Frey said:
"The defeat of Doc Norton in the
Thirteenth district for Congress was a
good thing for the party. Norton has
not been with the party for number
of years. He has placed personal con-
siderations above his party. He has
been the chief tax agent of the Balti-
more & Ohio railroad for years, and
the people of the district are tired Of
| it. He was defeated and he ought to
have been defeated. Such defeats are
good for the party and teach lesson.
1.-THE greatest loss the Democrats suf-
fered in the recent election was in
Hamilton county. where the Demo-
cratic Executive committee and the
Mclean Bernard men lay down or
fought the ticket. ] believe the result
would have been different If Johnson
had not made his open attack upon Nc
Lean prior to his going to Cincinnati,
but his visits thtre scarcely made the
matter worse.
81 do not regard Johnson as candi-
date for Governor next year or for
Senator. regard him as candidate
for President do not think johnson
wants to run for Governor"
Congressman Norton, who was called
by telephone at his home in Tiffin, af-
ter Mr.. Frey had submitted to the in
terview quoted, scored both Mr.. Frey
and Mayor johnson.
Hes a d----d fool" said he Of Mr..
Frey. II attribute my defeat to too
much Johnsonism. ThenagainI contend
with the questionable actions of Chair
man Frey and the total lack of sup
port from the state committee, which
ought to be accorded to any candi.
date"
johnson spoke in nearly every part
of Norton's district and Congressman
Norton thinks this cost him hundreds
of votes. Norton says he regards the
attitude of Chairman Frey as "abso-
lutely criminal"

COUNCIL TO BE
THE "WHOLE THING" I"
This Relates Only to Getting City Affairs In
Shape For New Government.

The matter of redistricting the city
Of Akron into seven wards will come
before Council at its meeting Nov. IL,
and 1t is likely that special commit
tee will be appointed to get the work
started. This means that the new Coun-
Gil will be composed of II members,
with its president having the right to
vote only In cases of tie. Seven of
the Councilmen will be elected from
wards, and three, as well as the presi-
dent, by the city at large, The Coun-
cilmen will each receive not less than
$3.50 year, and the president, who
will be Lieutenant Mayor, will, of
course, get more.
The present Chief Executive, Mayor
Doyle, will not have the right to veto
any acts Of the present Council, while
it is redistricting the city under the
provisions Of the new code. This opin-
ion was given Monday by Solicitor
Esgate. The present council will be
the whole thing in adjusting the
affairs of the city to the provision of

When New Officers Will
Take Charge of Their Jobs

It has not yet been settled when
Mr.. Clint w. Kline, the newly elected
Clerk of Courts, will take charge Of
the office. At the last session Of the
legislature, the terms of the County
Clerks OF Courts were extended six
months, but Attorney General Sheets
says this does not apply to persons
now holding such offices. Clerk Her.
shey, however, is inclined to believe
that 1t does. If the opinion of the
Attorney General holds good, Mr.. Kline
will take his office about the first of

Games In Akron
Saturday.
E. A. A. c. Beat Niles
28 to 0.
Buchtel Was showed Under by
Wooster.

Among those who saw the football
game Saturday afternoon between the
Niles team and the East Akron, there
was almost as much pity for the losers
as there was enthusiasm lor
the winners, for the Mics
team was very hopeessy light
and out of its class, and the match
should in reality not have been made at
nil. East Akron scored almost when
over It took a notion, and that the score
was even MS small as It was when the
game ended was the surprising part
of 1t all.
Tho two halves were probably the
hardest that the Niles team had ever
been in. and when the smoke had
cleared away. the score was go, in
favor of East Akron. The visitors
were continually being knocked out,
but nfter being bostcred and rubbed
they always continued the game, with
one exception The exception was
Trigg right halfback, who cracked
collar bone at the very last scrinmage
in the first half of the game. He was
replaced in the second half by Thomas.
Fenton played at right half, for the
first time this season, and he showed
more attention to the rules of practice
thnn did the regular half, as usual
thing Fenton has faculty OF remen-
bering his interference, and he stuck
TO II closer than brother for several
big gains. IIibbs was in the game,
too playing right guard with much
yigor. and showing that East Akron's
reserve is not out of the game because
II cannot play fast football. Hibbs did
royalty, and so did Fenton. East Ak
ron has as good band Of extra players
as the regular team, and should they
be needed there is no doubt that they
will be there with the goods"
Bittner, Volk, Stephens and Fenton
did the running with the ball and their
work was almost equally good. Once
Bittner bucked clear through the Op-
posing line and made wild dash of
nearly 20 yards, without any interfer-
ence at all, before downed. There
were 600 people there, and the day was
an ideal one for the game. The line

that the victory should still go to East

WERE STILL
GOOD FRIENDS
William and Charles
Couldn't Understand
How It Happened That They Got
to Fighting.

Il don't know how we happened to
have any trouble" said William Car
ney to the Mayor Monday morning,
when he and Charles Mccarthy were
arraigned for disorderly conduct. Off,
Ger Sherman France had separated
them while they were fighting very
viciously in Orleans ave-, Saturday
night McCarthy's face was badly
damaged, when they appeared Monday
morning, but Carney was without a
mark.
Mccarthy and I are the best OF
friends" exclaimed Carney. I'VE have
always been good friends, and never
had bit of trouble. After we were
bailed out yesterday, Mccarthy was
up to my house and we came down
here to court together this morning.
We had been drinking Saturday night,
and suppose we had some kind of Z
QUARREL.
Mccarthy coincided in what Car
ney said. They were fined IS and
costs each.
Thomas Blankenshift was fined IS
and costs for assault and battery on
Wilford Robinson. Blankenshift said
that Robinson had been talking about
his sister. II accused him of it and
he denied it," said Blankenshift. "Then
hit him." Robinson told the same
story as his assailant,, but he denied
having talked about Blankenshifts
sister. Robinson had badly batter
ed and infiamed eye, where he had
been struck.

game and Durr played pluckily, but he
was boxed up time and again. Thomas
at the other end played great game.
At times a Buchtel man would break
through and tackle the back for loss,
but Wooster would make UP for this
by a long run on the next play, de-
spite the fact that they were beaten
by an overwhelming score, Buchtel
never quit, and was playing n fiercer
game at the end than at the start. In
fact. In the last FIVE minutes of play,
Buchtel held her own with Wooster.

HARD BEATEN BY LAUBSCHER.
Met Hard the old time local pool
player, went little out of his depth
Friday night, when he took on a
match game with Lew Laubscher Of
Cleveland. Laubscher defeated him
at Ellis pool room in Bedford by score
of $50 to 50 balls. 1t is said to have
been an interesting game, and num-
ber of pool players from Cleveland and
Bedford saw 1t.
NO NEED OF DISCOURAGEMEN
In spite of the measure of the de-
feat that was received by Buchters
football boys Saturday, there should
he nothing in 1t to discourage them
greatly. Wooster's team was COM
posed of men much older and much
stronger and much heavier than the
home boys, and was also composed
of veteran players, who had made
their marks in other years on WoOs-
ter's and on other teams. Buchtel's
team Is composed OF youngsters who
have, most of them, not played the
game long, and have their achieve
ments all in the future.
Saturdays defeat, on the other
hand, should convince the players at
Buchtel that in order to do them
selves and the school which is back
ing them justice, they must practice
conscientiously, and pay more real at
tention to the efforts of Coach Fire
stone. AS long as very small por-
tions Of the football squad are all that
can be gathered on the gridiron daily
for practice, Buchtel can expect to be
beaten just as badly as it was Sat
urday. Get together.

PHINEAs oUIMBY STOOD STILL OVER THE CRADLE

Johns children, would they not plead
for him? No, wait-the babies
Johns tiny twin sons Mother
laughed aloud with delight of the in
spiration. She hurried up to the
lumber-room over the woodshed and
pulled down the long old cradle that
Phineas had pieced out long ago, to
keep baby toes from meeting when
Jerry lay at one end and little John
at the ether. 1t was heavy, but what
did mother care? The strength of
ten slender old women animated her
as she tugged and pulled it down.
Now, the pillows and the little old
log-cabin quilt! AS if she did not
know where those were! She ar
ranged them with eager fingers and
pulled the cradle into the kitchen,
for father would come in at the kitch-
en- door. Then mother went back to
Johns folks.
II want the babies, John-give me
them both for a little while," she
said. mo, don't you come, dear-do
you think / don't know how to take
care of little twin sons?"
She carried them both at once in
the old way. A little head lay warm
against each arm. There was not q
moment to lose If her plan was to
succeed, and she went away swiftly
with her precious load out to the
kitchen, straight to the little old era
die. There was time to deposit the
babies, one at each end, on the soft,
time-yellowed little pillows, and to
draw the log-cabin quilt snugly up
under each tiny pink chin. There
was a minute or two even to jog the
cradle q few times, and then mother
heard the creak of Phineas' wagon
wheels. She stole softly away and
left Johns babies to do their work
alone. But prayer was on her lips.
"a little child shall lead than
it's in Thy Book, Lord. Let Johns
little children lead father back to
John" she prayed silently.

his work. She sat down, as she had
done SO many times, to write to John.
That was her only comfort, and it had
never been denied her. Two sacred
things there were in the life of Phineas
Quimby and his wife, Amelia, that had
never been violated, even by the quar-
rel that long ago had separated father
and son. The father had never denied
the mother the solace Of her letters to
her boy, and never by word or intima-
ton had Amelia Quimby complained Of
her husband. To-day, as always, she
said only kind words of him. There
was no mention of Thanksgiving day,
or Of the disappointment that ranked
in her breast.
"Kiss both the babies for me-first
one and then the other, a hundred
times!" she wrote. "Tell little Jerry
1 love him. and tell little John. AM
tell me about their eyes-you forgot
to say the color-and their hair, and
their little fists. Does little Jerry
keep his thumb between his first and
second fingers when his fist is shut up
tight? Little John?-then you've
named them wrong. You've mixed
those children up! Before it is too late,
you'd better let them swap Names"
The letter ran on lovingly, with a
message in it for one child after an
other. And for John himself there was
the old message-"Your mother is
loving you, John" 1t was always there.
To Jerry she wrote briefly. Jerry
was a busy man, with hundred out
side nterests-outside of mother. His
letters to her were wont to be rare and
short, but there was always message
to father in them. She missed that in
Johns long, tender letters.
"I'm half afraid to WRITE" she
thought, as she took up her pen; Ser
rvs folks have so many rich friends,
and so many places to 60 to-I'm afraid
they won't want to come" But she
dipped her pen in the ink and began.
MY dear boy"-she always began
her letters to both sons that way-"My
dear boy, your father says to put on
all your bonnets, every one of you, and
come to the old home to keep Thanks
giving. He's quite set upon it,, You
know-you haven't forgotten, dear?-
that it is our golden wedding Thanks
giving. and it's time you came! Think
of having father and mother so years
married and not coming! Your father
says to say he has waited as long as he
