Bull Had To Be Lassoed.

Coshocton, o., Nov. 21.--A ferocious
bull broke away from John Winden,
a stock drover and for three hours
had sole possession of a quarter of the
city. All available policemen, re-
inforced by 100 men and boys, tried
In vain to corral the believing
monster. A young lad named Taylor
finally succeeded in lassoing the
bovine and men completed the cap
ture.

He wore a mighty grin,

IL Akron as n city were to start out
to enumerate the blessings for which
to give special thanks next Thurs
dny, she would soon get to thinking
that the end of the list could never
be reached Think of the hundreds
of new buildings put up during the
past year-fine residences, business
blocks. manufacturing plants and
public halls; think OF the increase in
the volume of her business, and think
Of the rapid growth Of the city gen.
orally. And another great blessing for
Akron is that this is the home of so
many enterprising citizens, who are
not afraid to put their money In cir
culation in way that will benefit
others as well as themselves 1t is
also matter for congratuatlon that
the morals of the town might be
great deal worse, and that her in.

as well as commercially.

A feature In the new list of Con-
gressmen is that the names of a num-
ber of former secretaries to Congress-
men appear on it. This is attracting
considerable attention, as It shows
that the secretaries are now develop
ing a latent brilliance In grasping op-
portunities that have been before
them for q long time. The private
secretary is asserting his claim to be
promoted for his patient toll as, in
good many instances, the real power
behind the gun. And It may also be
remarked that the Congressman are
noticing this, and are now showing
disposition to employ wife or
daughter as secretary, so tina
money may be kept in the family and
the danger Of being superseded set
aside. The list of the 5Sth Congress
