While the subject of State ticket
making is now very prominent with
politicians, why would it not be
well for Northwestern Ohio to present
a candidate for the office of Lieuten-
ant Governor? There is, perhaps,
no better capable or more popular
candidate who could be mentioned
for the position than Hon. NJ. M.
Boothman of Bryan, who has had two
terms in Congress, is an able lawyer,
an eX-soldier of the rebellion and a
staunch and true Republican. We
believe the nomination of Mr.. Booth
man would add strength to the ticket
for many reasons.

water and stubbornly held it there
until he had drowned.
Old Jack was undoubtedly insane.
For a dozen years he had lived with
his wife, "Queenie Choctaw," and sew
eral litters of cubs were born to
them. Two years ago the last litter
of cubs-four in number-was born.
Jack suddenly changed his nature, and
when the four little ones were two
days old he ate them.
About year ago, in what was re-
garded as a fit of anger, Jack at
tackled Queenie in the night and beat
and lacerated her until she was help
less. The keeper arrived just in time
to see Jack push Queenie into the wa
ter tank and hold her head under the
water until he had drowned her.
Jack had been sullen, snarly and
generally unpleasant ever since.

AS will be seen by report of council
meeting, published in the JOURNAL,
four members Of our village council
voted against a resolution to advertise
for bids for an electric railway fran
chise. The reason for such action is
supposed to be caused by the refusal
of the railway company to make n
'loop" through the east side of town.
We do not doubt the honesty of the
gentlemen who voted against the
proposition, but we do believe their
action is i'll advised. Railway COM
panies will always bear watching, es-
pecially when they are seeking fran
chises through villages, but these
same companies are also entitled to
have their propositions considered
from purely business standpoint,
and not governed by the personal
wishes of members Of couucil, or the
desires of any particular person or
special locality. The councilmen are
representatives of the entire popula-
tion of the village and in their action
pertaining to all public matters they
should act for the majority of the
people, remembering it will be i'm
possible to please every individual,
Every councilman owes a duty to the
village, and that duty is to so act as
to do the greatest good to the greatest
number. The majority of the people
wish that franchise to be granted and
the principal consideration be asked
for it is a reduced rate and improved
service over that we now have.

HAD WRONG POCKET.
the Automobile Coat in
Chicago Street Car.

A pretty girl wearing an automo-
bile coat that reached to her heels
stepped aboard an Indiana avenue
electric car at Thirty-frst street the
other day, says the Chicago Inter
Ocean, and took the only remaining
seat, which was next to man
bundled in a great ulster. The at
mosphere in the car was rather
frigid, and the young woman felt
about for her coat pockets, and final
ly showed her hands deep down into
the folds of the garment.
An instant later she felt large
gloved hand steal inside the pocket.

The Perrysburg Stars challenged the
Maumee team of baseball for game
of ball on our grounds Saturday, May
2, 'O3. They came and were defeated by
the Stars, 16 to 6. The game would
have been much more in the favor of
the Stars only that the Maumees in
the sixth innings put in two large boys
who were about 20 years old. One
caught and the other held second base.
The Perrysburg names were as follows.

1t closed upon her own hand and
gently pressed it. The pretty girl
was enraged, and turned upon the
man at her side.
The car was crowded with passen-
gers, and she did not wish to create
scene. She bit her lip, Strengthened
up, and looked directly ahead. Again
the hand closed gently upon her own.
She gave her arm quick jerk and
withdrew her hand from the pocket.
The man, not the least abashed, also
withdrew his hand.
Her fingers soon began tingling
with cold and she slipped her hand
into the pocket again. While she sat
shivering she again felt a large
gloved hand steal into the pocket.
For moment she sat quietly, and
then the hand once more pressed her
own. She would endure such a flirta-
tion no longer. She thrust her Land
deeper into the pocket and faced the
man.
Take your hand out of my pocket,
sir" she said, in a fierce voice.
Pardon me, miss" said the man,
"but will you be so kind as to take
your hand out of my pocket?"
The young woman looked sur
prised, and with jerk withdrew her
hand When she saw she had con
fused the folds of the two coats she
blushed, signaled the conductor to
stop the car, and fled toward the
door. When the car stopped she
stepped to the street, without even
turning to give the man an apologet'
| ic glance.

The most conflicting reports con
tinue to come from Columbia regard
ing the ratification of the Panama
canal treaty. In view of the fact that
Colombia would long ago have been
absorbed by some European power
had it not been for the maintenance
by the United States of the Monroe
Doctrine, the reluctance to grant tc
this country as good terms as were
granted to France, is, to put it mild
ly, ungrateful.
