Especial Correspondence.l

Ravenna. Aug. 5--About is years
ago, two young men matriculated at
the University of Michigan, from
which they graduated with signal
honors, leaving records as the best
students in the institution.
Together they climbed to the pin
nacle, and returning home, applied
themselves for admission to the Ohio
Bar. Kindred tastes and mental af-
tinihes inviting both to the legal
arena They took first ratings at Col
umbus, and straightway addressed
themselves to practical business pre-
paration. Friendship and long asso-
citation dictated professional partner
ship, and the new firm soon attracted
confidence and patronage. The young
advocates found themselves with a
substantial clientage that increased
with time until the removal of one of
them to a larger center dissolved the
relations. A few years later they were
Attorneys of their respective counties,
and hardly had the oaths OF office been
taken before both were introduced to
its weightiest responsibilities inr con.
Quoting prosecutions against men in
dicted for foul murders. Mutual
knowledge of what the other was
doing added natural stimulus to their
endeayors which elevated them to
high legal eminence, and rewarded
them with just convictions in each of
the cases.
These trials made famous history
and the young men were compliment
ed on all hands for the abilities DEM
onstrated. Reelection followed the
expiration Of their terms, and again
was public safety menaced in either
county by series Of savage murders.
Indictments were again followed by
convictions in all of the cases tried,
excepting one, in which the defend
ant was found to have committed the
act, but not guilty in law because in
sane at the time of the deed. Another
case, that of hotel porter arrested
for the murder of guest for his mon

EXTRAORDINARY
Feat Of Engineering Is to Be
Undertaken.

Norfolk, Va, Aug. 5.--The Hygeia
hotel at Old Point Comfort, one of the
largest in the United States. is to be
moved eight miles across Hampton
Roads. The hotel is frame building
400 feet long, and engineers will have
difficult task before them. 1t will
be hard enough to move the big hotel
from its present foundation to RATS
or boats, but the transportation to
Willoughby Spit, eight miles away, is
the really hazardous part of the under
taking. Tides and winds have to be
taken into consldera ton and the plan
ming of the great feat will take some
time before the actual moving begins.

HONODLE WAS
THE RIGHT MAN
Knights Of Pythias Who Got Rates
From Him Are Glad.

Several members of the knights of
Pythias lodges in Akron, who con-
templated attending the National Con-
vention of the X. P.'s at San Fransis-
co, this month, are sorry now that they
were in hurry to secure rates OF
transportation. They decided to join
the Cleveland delegates, who had Sc
cured, what the Akron gentlemen
considered low rates and special ac-
commodations inasmuch ms they were
given six hours stop-over in each Of the
cities of Chicago, Denver and Salt
Lake city.
For some weeks past, however,
Ticket Agent Chas. Honodle of the
Union depot has been busy arranging
for rates for the Akron Knights, and
two weeks ago, at his request, repre-
sentative of the Burlington route
came to Akron from Chicago and sub,
mitted rates. Agent Honodle secured
rates from Akron to San Francisco,
eight dollars cheaper, per fare for
round trip, than the Cleveland rates,
and includes stop-overs of "a hours
each at Denver, Colorado Springs and
! Salt Lake City. The Akron contin-
gent left II hours earlier than the
Cleveland special, and will arrive in
San Francisco II hours after the
Cleveland train, making better time,
considering the stop-overs.
Akron Knights are congratulating
themselves and Agent Honodle for
the splendid rates they have secured
for the trip.

Sunday there came climax when,
at MONDAY, practical darkness fell

PANAMA IS PASSING.
The Ping Pong Hat Will Be It's Sue.
Cessor--What Men Are Wearing.

The Panama hat, over which the
masculine world raved this summer
That is. raved as much as masculinity
does rave over anything, is doomed.
''New York is the beginning of all
evil" said an Akron dealer in mems
clothing, and it was New York that
sealed the doom of the Panama which
has been pronounced the coolest, most
comfortable, most convenient hat man
ever wore, for II was in New York that
the Panama was first discarded by the
men who set the fashions and 1t was
IN Now York that its successor. the
Ping Pong hat. originated.
The Ping Pong is a new name for an
old. old design, design, however
which, despite its age, will never lose
its popularity, wide brimmed. rough

expecting to be in the height OF fash

sadly mistaken, and will either be
compelled to buy Ping Pong, or wear

The demise of the Panama is due
to the many cheap goods with which
the market has been flooded, and which
placed the Panama within the reach OF
nll; and this comfortable hat has been
rclcgated to the past after one brief
season because everybody has one"
The fact that the Panama has sscome
to n sudden end as n fashionable hat
does not mean that none viii be worn,
however. for though there are many
