finds that some are not getting as good
work done on their trees as should be.

o'clock in the Presbyterian manse was
performed the marriage ceremony of
Mr.. Edwin R. Leaning and Mrs. Min
erva l.. Kester, Rev. F. L. Ha, den
officiating. The groom is the father-in-
law of Attorney Fred Parker and has
already passed his allotted three score
and ten years and although 76 years of
age, every indication points to many
years vet of happy life. The bride, who
is from Portland, was visiting friends
here and is herself 60 years of age, but
still full of vigor and enjoying the best
of health. The union, while nique
from the ages of the couple, will doubt
less prove happy one.

ton, died at her home last Thursday,
March 10.
Mrs. Patton had been bed-ridden for
ten dreary weeks of dire suffering from
a complication of diseases which cul-

relief for the stricken body.

daughter, Miss Jessie Patton came here
from Kentucky about two years ago.
He invested money in the town and was
quite prosperous, only recently begin
ming the erection of new home. The
death of his wife has thwarted these

of friends in the city who deeply SYM
pathize with her bereaved husband
and daughter. Funeral services were
conducted from the house Saturday

There is a general sentiment among

There Is a general sentiment among
the Democrats of Stark county in fav-
or of abandoning the primary cleo
tion this spring and making the nomi-
nations by convention. The stand
that stronger men may be chosen by
mass meeting than by miscellaneous
voting is we'll taken and the difference
in expense is a consideration. The OBJ
lection offered to the change is that a
compact entered into by members Of
the party at the time the primary sys-
tenn was adopted, provides that the
party may not revert to conventions
without submitting the question to a
vote Of it's constituents. This, how
ever may be waived without detri-
ment and probably without discord.
Until the party, in the natural order Of
things, regains is supremacy in this
county, the convention method Of NOM
ination will suit all purposes and fill
all requirements.

the number of cars handled on city de-

delivery for June will exceed even the
number handled in May. In May the
number handled ran over 1000 more

year. Brick shipments continue very
heavy but are falling away from the
amount for last month as they average
only 25 or 80 cars per day at the pre-

Where Canton Wins.
youngstown Vindicator.)


A free-for-all fight on the grounds
at the Canton high school followed the
class day exercises of the seniors who
tried to burn the colors of the juniors
who in turn did a plenty to the SEN
iors in the way Of giving examples of
class prejudice to warm them up. The
faculty interfered as peacemakers,
hoping thereby to be blessed, but when
the trouble was ended there was work
for the doctors in dressing wounds
and patching up faculty and members
of classes to make them presentable
in appearance, while the clothing
dealers and tailors the next day did
an increased business. Members OF
one of the classes invaded a neighbor-
ing church, got to the belfry and dis
played their colors while ringing the
bell and holding the opposite class at
bay for some time, till reinforcements
came strong enough to force the door
in at the church when a change in COL
ors occurred. Two years ago a dis
graceful fight occurred between jun
iors and seniors of the high school
that made strained relations between
some Of the faculty and caused a rise
in price of surgeons plaster and
crutches and canes. Canton may be
q bit slow in some thincs hut the rush
of classes in the high school is suffi-
ciently swift to max- up.

No Elbow Room at Sea.

There is too little elbow room ON
modern United States warships, espe-
cially In the general mess, and this Is
one reason for the discomfort which
causes recruits to desert. Desertions
during the last month numbered more
than 800. The general mess system has
resulted in very well cooked and
plentiful ration of considerable vari-
ETY.. hut the space for the mess tables
is so small that the men have to sit
very close together and all their food
Is placed on the table before mess call
is sounded. This detracts from the
neatness which could be obtained by
more roomy mess quarters. The ex-
'tremely large batteries now being
placed on shipboard necessitate larg-
er compliments on battleships and
cruisers, while large amounts of
auxiliary machinery take up great
deal Of deck space.--New York Herald.
