OBITUARY NOTES.
William speiss, Lad, Died in Chair,
 Probably From the Heat.

William Speiss, the eleven and one penter of 19S Frank street, died sudden ly late yesterday afternoon and the medical examiner, Dr. Bartlett, who was called on the case, stated that he was unable to tell just what caused his death. The young man got up as usual about 5:30 yesterday morning and took a ride on the milk wagon of a friend, as he had done a great many times during the year He returned about noon and complained of feeling badly and rested { for several hours. About o'clock yes- terday afternoon he got up and went to the pantry for something to eat. Young Spiess took a step or two and sank back into a chair, expiring a few minutes later.
 Dr. Bartlett was called and after find ing out all of the facts possible stated that it was probable that the young man died from the effects of the heat, although cases of death from that cause, at the age of young Speiss, are very rare.
 Dr. Bartlett said that it was possible that young Speiss died of heart disea SC. but he was unable to tell the exact cause.
 The boy was an exceptionally bright fellow and the loss to his parents will be a severe one.

DEATH
From a Peculiar Accident
Saturday.
Accident,

Rev. ]. w. Thompson received q
message Saturday. from Steubenville,
stating that Stanton Walker, . young
man, nineteen years OF age, son Of Mrs.
Thompson's sister, had been killed that
afternoon at q base ball game In that
city, by very peculiar accident
With two other young men he was
sitting on fence, Watching the game.
One of the three was keeping the score.
Wishing to sharpen his pencil. he
asked the young man sitting on the
other side Of young Walker for the loan
Of his knife. As the young man was
passing the open knife around Walker
to the scorekeeper, . ball was knocked
that struck his arm and drove the
blade of the knife into Walkers body,
between the ribs, severing . large
artery and causing his death. The
lamentable accident is doubtless
without precedent, and shows how ut
terly unable we are 70 guard ourselves
against the shafts of our merciless
enemy.

BUSINESS HAS KEPT PACE
Altheugh Greatly Increased
Railway Equipment Is
Still Inadequate.

New York, October "a - R.. Co. Dun
& Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade to-
morrow will say:
No better evidence Of industrial and
commercial activity Is needed than the
present inadequate transporting facili-
ties. Every form of railway equipment
from track TO rolling stock has been In
creased and perfected during the past
few years to An extent that appeared
almost excessive, yet the nations busi-
ness has more than kept pace. Un-
sessonably mild weather has retarded
retail trade 1t many points, yet the
movement of goods is fully sustained by
undiminished preparations for future
sales. Distribution delayed by high
temperature is not lost, while the sgri-
cultural community will profit very ma
teriAlly by the tardiress of frost, in
|creasing their ability TO consume the
products Of factories and mills. Labor
is more fully employed than at any re-
cent date, only . few small controver'
sies interrupting. Money market pres.
sure has been removed, and, although
securities do not respond, legitimate
trade is not retarded by quiet specula'
tlon. Earnings of the railways during
October thus far exceed last years by
1 4 per cent, and those Of 1900 by II pen
cant .yn ~.

Since the advent and experience will

Since the advent and experience with
smallpox in West Mansfield 1t may be
most empbatically asserted that vacci-
nation is of great value and much bene-
ft In an epidemic Of the disease.
There are numerous cases here where
those who were exposed to smallpox
and had been properly vaccinated, failed
to become inoculated. This would
surely indicate that law passed max
ing 1t compulsory to vaccinate in infancy
aud continue 1t at stated ages would
soou eradicate the disease for want oI
material upon which to work.-West

At The Cement Factories.

Repairs have been made ct the Alta
Cement plant, and business resumed
with full working force. The output
for the season is expected to reach IS,
600 barrels. The market is firm In
price, and the demand cannot be sup
piled. The prospects for the future
are very encouraging, and the enlarge
nent Of the plant an early necessity.
The Buckeye works have about com.
pieted the installation of two new ro-
tary kilns and dryers and remodelled
their buildings. A new locomotive has
also been added TO haul the mari from
