LEAVING TOWN
Alliance Machinists Alb
dicating the Field.
tStan Specially

Alliance, March 11.-Early Tuesday
morning conditions indicate that an
adjustment is not near at halNl in the
differences now existing between the
Morgan Engineering company and the
union machinists of this city.
Monday evening through the efforts
OF several business men arrangements
were made for the company to meet a
committee from the striking machin-
lists. The committee called at the
Morgan Office Tuesday forenoon. OFF,
cials of the company then said they
would not discuss matters with the
committee which represented the men
as a union. However, they agreed to
go into conference with a committee,
which should come from the machin-
lists merely as unorganized men. AS
the committee which went to the
works was an official one from the
union they had nothing to do but to
return and report to the union. A
union meeting was then called for 81
this afternoon.
A prominent union man said he does
not believe the organization will agree
to committee not representatives Of
the union. From appearances it would
now seem that the breach is widening
as the company's attitude indicates
that it will not recognize the union.
A large number of the machinists left
the city today to work elsewhere, and
1t is thought that more than one-half
of those who are out will remain in the
city. A party of seventeen is sched-
uled to leave Wednesday for Garret,
Ind, to work in the Baltimore & Ohio
shops.

GAY MASS|LL0N GIRL
Who is Trying to Sell Her Body
to Medical College Has
Run Away from
Home.

Maude E. Smith, the 19-year-old
daughter of Councilman Peter Smith,
of Massillon, who offered to sell her
body to the Tennessee Medical college,
in Knoxville, Tenn, returned to her
home on Tuesday during the absence
of her parents, collected bundle of
clothing, destroyed all her photographs
and disappeared again, leaving note
saying she would call up her mother
by telephone in the evening.
Shortly after 6 o'clock she called
up her home by telephone and an
nounced that she was in Canton. She
told her mother that she wanted to re-
turn home and her father told her to
do go, but up until late Wednesday
morning she had not appeared.
WENT TO CLEVELAND.
Miss Smith left Canton Tuesday
night for Cleveland with Annie Rambo,
another Massillon girl. over the Wheel
ing and Lake Erie road. In this city
she was in the company of a number
of Canton girls and was for long
time in the waiting room under the
court house. She left that place short
ly after 6 o'clock to go to the Barnett
house to telephone home and short
time later left for Cleveland. What
her plans are are not known. One of
the girls brothers live in Cleveland,
but it is not thought that she will
go to see him.
Mr. Smith has been a councilman
in Massillon for eight years and was
the Democratic candidate for sheriff at
the last election. He said his da\Nh-
ter has been acting in queer manner
for some time past and during his
candidacy for the sheriff's Office be-

When she received no response to
her letter to the medical school, she
left home without taking extra clothes
with her. She came to Canton and
from this city telephoned home sew
eral times. On Tuesday afternoon,
she slipped home to secure some of
her clothing. She gathered up every
photograph Of herself individually or
in groups and destroyed them. All
were torn into bits and burned or
scattered about. One woman who
talked to the girl said that she had

said that he wants Maude to return
home. "All ask her to do is to come

her to work. She can have anything

In her letter written to the Tennes-

MAUDE DESTROYED HER PHOTOS
WHEAT IS POOR.
Condition Placed at 62
Per Cent.

The Ohio Agricultural Experiment
station has sent out a report on the
condition of the wheat in the state
giving its condition as compared with
the average year at 62 per cent. This
is low and does not indicate a very
heavy yield in the state for next year
However, the following explanation as
to the causes leading to the report is
given, which does not preclude hope
of better conditions If the spring is
favorable:
On the setting in of winter, the
wheat plant had not attained good
growth and was far below the usual
degree of strength and vitality. These
conditions were due principally to ex-
tremely late seeding, on account OF
dry condition Of soil and in order to
avoid, is possible, the fly. The wheat
in its tender condition was not able
to stand a very rigid winter.
There was period Of severe cold
weather in December that undoubted-
ly resulted in some damage, but dur
ing this period there was slight snow
protection which aided in warding off
greater damage. The estimated condi-
ton of wheat as taken January /
showed 70 per cent. of an average con-
dition.
The winter has not been extremely
severe. There has been no serious al
ternate freezing and thawing, so the
wheat roots have not been upheaved.
There has been an average of about
five weeks of snow protection, which
of course, was favorable, but notwith-
standing these apparently favorable
conditions, the wheat has declined
rather that progressed. The estimate
average from correspondents returns.
shows condition of only 62 per cent,
10 per cent. less than on Jan. 1. The
snow has disappeared from the fields,
but there is no evidence Of great
wheat life. Some fields seem perfect
ly bare of growth. Other fields show
the wheat brown and top frozen, while
few indicate that healthy green that
should appear under favorable condi-
tions after the disappearance of snow.
Some correspondents note that the
wheat roots are apparently good, and
II this be true generally, the plant,
with a favorable March and April, may
most of 1t take on new life and re-
newed growth, in which case condi-
tion should show a marked rise by the
next report, otherwise still more fatal
results will likely be shown. Present
conditions make 1t almost impossible
to foretell, with any degree of certain
ty, what results will be and we must
wait for further developments.
Shortage of feed and severe cold
weather have not been conducive to
prime condition of live stock. Stock
generally healthy but thin in flesh.
In very many localities farmers were
handicapped in caring for
stock by the great scarcity of water.
During January and most of February,
creeks were low and many wells dry.
Sheep have not received that general
careful attention that prevails when
wool and mutton are bringing higher
prices.
The distribution of the pure breeds
Of sheep indicates fixed interest in
all the recognized prominent breeds
and speaks well for the general. live
stock interests of the state as horses,
cattle and swine will show corre-
spending tendency for increase of the
pure breeds and their grades.

TISHOMINGO BY THE WASRITA
A Romantic and Historic Place in
the Indian Territory.

ADA, /. T., Sept. }0,-Three quar-
ters of a century ago, when the
and Choctaws dwelt to-
gether, back in Mississippi, in broth
erIv love as one tribe, they were
ruled over by the great and much
revered chief Tishomingo. Even III
the early days the white man Gus
toms were pressing hard, so it was
decided to find a home beyond the
Father of Waters in the western
wilderness and they Immediately ar
ranged for the journey. The pom
derous silver medal, the pipe OF
peace and the great scissors, rel
les of the time when they signed the
peace treaty with Andrew Jackson,
were all securely packed, but, when
they were ready to start IL was
found that chief Tishomingo was
feeble for the toilsome journey. 80
while he advised the move ana
planned it, like Moses of old, ne
was not permitted to occupy the
Canaan, yet when the faithful
braves had at last set up their tents
in agstrange land they called their
capital after HIM, and to this day, II
commemorate and perpetuates the
good chiefs name.
Tishomingo mean watching chlei,
so the capitol, two-story red gran
tie structure stands noble mona-
ment to the Chickasaw nation. 1t
stands on an eminence overlooking
the adjacent country for miles. On
the west is the Pennington with Its
hundred waterfalls, as picturesque a
stream as is to be found this side OF
Colorado, while on the east hows
the muddy Washita. The town is
in the forest and the capitol dome
looks out through the boughs OF
mighty trees. 1t is a place after
the longing of the Indian heart
such place as you would dream OF
for an Indian village.
In this historic and romantic place
last Monday convened the congress
of the Chickasaws. There ar
twelve senators and sixteen repre-
seutatives in their law-making body.
There was a contest between the
rival candidates for governor. On
the evening before Indian soldiers
were bivouaced in the capitol. When
the big bell rang which called the
lawmakers to assemble, the U. =.
marshal took his stand before the
main entrance and allowed no one
to enter without a permit. The IN
dian has speedily learned the usages
of civilization, especially in dealing
with contested election cases. The
delegation whose seats were con-
tested had no permits, and were
gently left on the outside to muse
on NATURES charms, while the rival
faction proceeded to organize both
houses, declare the election of the
other faction Illegal, and vote Nose
ly governor of the Nation.
To a stranger their proceedings
are amusing. The Indian is not the
stolid, silent fellow that he has the
reputation of being. Like all legis-
Iators he can make speech, and
while his language is not the best,
vet he ID always emphatic. There
is no court language. When o SEN
ator arises he first expresses him
self In English, If be is an educated
