COl.UMBIANA DISAGREED.
The Coumbiana county delegation
was late in arriving. They were at
once hurried into the Chase house par
lor to determine upon their course in
tho convention. Duffy as in the city
but rs not present. When the question
came up whether the Columbiana dele
CATION would endorse Duffy unreserved
for the nomination it met much op-
position. One of the members had the
resolution amended TO read only as an
endorsement of Duffy Tor the nominal
ton. Even this was not satisfactory.
A dispute arose and the delegation
finally decided to go on record as be-
ing in favor OF the nomination of u
Democrat without specifying who it
should be. w. J. Foley, of East Pal
estine, was chairman and M. E. Mis-
kali, of East Liverpool, was named
as secretary
In this status the delegation num-
bering about 80 went into the conven-
tion. The Mahoning county delega-
tion caucused in the mayors Office

DUFFY DENIED
PRINTED INTERVIEW
fStar SpecI,I.D

Alliance, Sept. 16.-The clans of the
Democracy were slow in assembling,
but our candidate for the congression-
al nomination is on the ground, T. j.
Duffy, of East Liverpool. who is
much in evidence and the Chase house
where the Columbiana delegation has
its headquarters is the center of attrac-
ton. Mr.. Duffy when interviewed by
a News-Democrat reporter indignant
ly denied the published interviews to
the effect that he would refuse the
Democratic nomination if rendered
him. He said: Such an interview
never occurred and there is no found
alton whatever for such a story. 1t
was first published in an East Liver
pool paper but without any authority
or basis"
Mr.. Duffy while making his head
quarters with the Columbiana delega-
tion is not delegate and refuses to
take part in the conference of the
party In this he is following the
same policy that he adopted at the
labor convention, at which he was
unanimously nominated.

James D. BARRY TO The RESCUE.

Alliance, Sept. 16.-The Stark county
delegation met in the dining room of
the Keplinger house at 1915 Tuesday
morning. An attempt was made by
several of the Alliance delegates to
have the Stark county delegation go
on record as being in favor of LEAVING
the congressional nomination vacant,
and endorse the labor candidate, r. j.
Duffy, of East Liverpool, for the posi-
tion. This was defeated by James d.
Barry, of the Canton delegation. Fl.
III. Warner, of Canton, was chairman
of the Stark county caucus.
ID. N. Miller, of Alliance, was placed
on the committee on permanent or
ganization. George Howell, of Alli-
ance, on rules and order of business.
James ID. Barry, Of Canton, on the
committee on credentials.
Mayor Bell, of Massillon, suggested
the name of George Howells, of Mas
sillon. to succeed Otto e. Young, who
died while one of the congressional
committeeman. w. ]. Piero, of Can
ton, was named to succeed himself.
There was no opposition to either.
Mr.. Piero suggested that all Demo-
Gratis present be seated as delegates as
Stark county was not fully represented,
only 28 delegates being present out of
91 to which the county is entitled.
1t was also decided, on motion of Mr..
Piero, that the Stark county delegates
cast the entire vote of the county.
w. r.. Wadsworth, of Alliance, pre-
sented a resolution asking that the
! delegation go on record as endorsing
Duffy on the labor ticket and that the
Democratic ticket be left blank. In ex-
PLANTATION he said that Duffy would
control from 5000 to 5000 Republican
votes in this district which would not
be secured II he is placed on the Dem
ocratic ticket. He said that. 1t would

St Louis, Mo-, Sept. 17.-Charles A.
Gutke, one of the five former members
of the house of delegates confined in
the city Jail on charges of bribery and
perjury. was informed yesterday of the
death of his 11-year-old son, who had
been sick for some time. The father
broke down and wept at the news, but
declined to 60 home in the custody Of
a deputy sheriff when Judge Douglas
gave him permission to do so.
|, Delegate Edmund Bersch, out on
bonds aggregating $4,000, volunteer
ed to go to jail in place Of Gutke for
IA few days in order that the latter
might be at home until after the fu-
neral of his son. Judge Douglas gave
his consent to accept Ed. Butler and
Henry Eyermann on Gutke's bond,
and therefore Bersch will not be called
upon to make the sacrifice.

Duffy arrived home from the Alliance
convention Tuesday evening and on
Wednesday morning was at his desk
at the Brotherhood of Potters' head
quarters, busily disposing of the bust
ness that has accumulated during his
absence.
II have not yet accepted the nomi-
nation, and neither have l declined.
said Mr.. Duffy. Members of the ex'
ecutive committee of the labor ticket
advised me to withhold my acceptance
or rejection of the nomination for the
time being. What their intentions are
in the matter cannot say. 1t was the
desire of the labor committee to get
the support of the Democracy in this
congressional contest, but they'd NOT
expect nomination. We did not think
that the Democratic convention would
adopt a labor platform but were
pleased to see them do SO.
II am under the direction of the
labor committee, and whatever actor

Arrangements for securing special
train over the Pennsylvania lines to
convey Stark county veterans to the
national encampment of the G. A. r. at
Washington during the week of Oc-
tober s will be discussed at the meet
ings of William Mckinley Post No. 25
and George ID. Harter Post No, 555 to
be held Wednesday evening.
The plan of securing a special train
is said to be meeting with much favor
among the members Of the order. as
many of them expect to attend the en-
campment and It Is believed that by
starting at Massillon and picking up
those who may assemble at stations
east of Canton sufficient number will
be secured to justify the use of a spe-

Exposlnr n Fraud.

Dishonest holders of accident insur-
ancc policies frequently put the COM
panies' physicians to needless trouble
by claiming damage for trifling hurts,
which under the law entitle them to
nothing. Some deliberately practice
fraud, says a physician quoted in the
Atlanta Journal, and pretend to have
ailments when they are sound in every
part.
A few days ago, says the physician,
was summoned to n hospital to eX.
anime a man who pretended to have
had his hearing totally destroyed by
the premature explosion of blast
had an idea from the start that he
was shamming but all the tests that
could apply seemed to show that he was
stone-deaf. Still, l was not satisfied,
and resolved to try little strategy.
Coaching the nurse beforehand how
to act, entered the room hastily and
cried: "Quick, quick The fire-extin.
guisher Where is it? Never mind the
deaf man! Save yourselfw
Then we both rushed for the door,
but the patient was quicker than we
were, and got out before us. He had
the good sense, however to realize that
the game was up, and he never ap-
peared again.

Gravel Roads.

Gravel roads can be built in many
ways. The best is made from gravel
that has been screened and placed in a
prepared roadbed, similar to that used
for macadam roads, with the larger
stone at the bottom, and the smaller
size used on top for a binder. Exclude
stones that are too large.
Where the gravel is not good enough
to pay for screening, a good road can
be built by placing the gravel on the
road in two layers, These layers must
be thoroughly narrowed and rolled
with a two-ton sectional roller until
thoroughly consolidated and firm,
With some varieties of gravel good
road can be built without the use Of
the roller, allowing the travel to con
solidate the gravel. The wheel tracks
must be continually filed in by a road
machine, or by hand with hoe. In all
cases prepare the foundation in a sim.
liar manner as the foundation for q
macadam road
A constant and continuous system
of repairs should be adopted on this
class of roads as we'll as on macadam
roads. 49,

Rivers which Travorso the Ocean.

In the ocean the longest way round
is ofttimes the shortest way home.
For instances If United States trans.
port were to leave San Francisco for
China, the most logical course would
seem to be straight across the North
Pacific to the land Of the Boxers.
But in reality the ship would be
steered to the southwest along the
equator and past the Philippines to the
Asian coast. This course would be
several hundred miles longer, yet 1t
would take the vessel to her destina'
tion much quicker than the straight
course. In the one case she would be
going with the current in the other
she would be going against the cur.
rent.
The ocean is not simple, pathless
expanse, over which short cuts may
be made, but a system of highways
crossways and even blind alleyways,
which have been surveyed and laid
out by nature herself.-Ainslee's Mag
aZiue.

Russia and costs almost double? Rose.
wood, which comes from South Amer
lea, costs three to four times as much
as mahogany, and is fully as rich in
coloring. 1t is used but little, however,
on account OF its cost.
"Satin wood, product Of the West
Indies, costs almost as much as rose
wood, too. This is a beautiful light
yellow wood, which also takes a high
polish.
English brown oak Is also fully as
expensive as mahogany. At present
1t is scarce, as the supply is limited by
laws restricting the cutting of it, 1t is
also very defective, and this fact makes
its cost mount up.
"It cost thirty cents foot in the
log, and the waste makes the real price
amount to a great deal more, A build
er told me recently that he put a large
quantity of English oak in the new
home of q millionaire, and that by the
time the perfect pieces had been pro-
cured, the cost of the wood had
amounted to 81 foot.
"It is one of the most beautiful
woods we have when polished. At it's
best it has rich deep brown colcr,
and contains many very dark, almost
black blotches.
Ebony is all going out because 1t
is so hard to get good specimens Of 1t
nowadays. Good ebony is almost jet
| black, but that which is imported now
is full of gray streaks which spoil it.
"Very little curly maple is used these
days, and bird's-eye maple Is compara-
lively cheap for a handsome wood.
1t sells in the rough for ten cents a
foot and veneers cheaper than most Of
the others. Walnut has gone out Of
style, too and has given way to maple,
white and quartered oak, ash, cherry
and birch.
"Chinese teak wood is another that Is
expensive and also very defective. Still
1t is used very extensively. The keels
Of the battleships Indiana and Massa-
chusetts are made Of it, and 1 happen
| to know that it cost the Government
a pretty penny.
"The British Admiralty uses great
quantity of this wood for the decks
Of the British warships, and it Is used
commonly on the swell yachts for
railings and hatch comblngs, as it
stands the weather eXcellently.
"What is the most expensive wood
that know of? Snake wood, guess.
1t is imported from the northern part
of South America in logs weighing
from fifty to 200 pounds, and costs
from ten to twenty-five cents pound,
1T is very hard and when polished
shows a grain much like the marking
of a snake skin. 1t is used mostly for
walking canes and for fancy turn
| ings.
"Black Sea walnut costs a lot, too.
from tLirty-fve to fifty cents foot,
so you see that mahogany is not so
expensive, after all, and as said be-
fore, it is truly the king Of all woods"
