SCHEME FAILED.

The short change racket on a small
scale was tried upon George Bailey,
cigar dealer, 612 South Cherry street,
Thursday morning. A stranger en-
tered the store and asked change for
81. He was accommodated, and while
the proprietor's attention was directed
elsewhere he slipped quarter from
the counter into his pocket and then
claimed that Bailey had not given him
sufficient change. Foiled in his at
tempt to get another 25 cents, he left
the store. Officer Piero searched for
the fellow, but unsuccessfuly.

The Day Of the Linsey-Woclsey.
Old Landmarks No. So.
Written for the News-D Democrat by John Danner

The only reason / can assign why
1t has been more difficult to get sew
ing done since the sewing machines
were introduced than before, is that
people very soon learned to put more
line stitching and fancy work on their
garments which required three times
the stitches to be made, than was the
case when all had to be done with the
needle by hand.
Fashions in many kinds Of garments
have also greatly changed. Fifty years
ago satin vests were much worn by the
men. Today If man is seen on the
streets with satin vest on, he is the
object Of general remarks by all who
see him, and If woman appeared on
the streets with a calico dress, as was
frequently the case then, she would be
the object of remarks by old and
young.
Up to about the time that o. #.
Browning first came to Canton and
opened his store on the east side of the
north public square, all our calicoesi
were foreign made and very liable to
fade and sold for 1S to 25 cents q yard.
Mr.. Browning was among the first to
bring American make of calicoes to
calicoes for 12h cents yard, the whole
town and surrounding country were
greatly interested in the announce
ment, and many country girls were
happy II they could lay aside their
home spun linsey woolsey dresses and
have calico dresses to wear to town,
or to church.
Many of the girls of our time are
not satisfied unless they can have
satins and silks, but at the olden times
referred to they thought they were
well off If they could have nice new
calico dress.
Surely times do change, and the GUS
toms and habits of the people today
are quite different from what they were
when the old wooden mills, carding ma
chimes and spinning wheels were kept
busy In and around Canton. The
question arises are we happier and
more contented than we were then?
Surely the old saying is as true now
as It was hundred years ago, MAN
wants but little here below. nor wants
that little long" We are all such imi-
tative creatures that we cannot be
happy unless we can have what ever
SO many Of our friends and associates
have.

Mansfield, o., Oct. 12.-When Mayor
Tom Johnson, accompanied by John H.
Clarke, pitches his tent in Mansfield

Mayor Johnson's invasion of Rich
land county was a revelation of swift
and effective campaign methods and his
coming here this week is looked for
ward to by Democrats and Republicans
alike, They are anxious to pack the
mayors tent as they did that rainy
sloppy night few months ago when ne
pitched his tent on the old ball
grounds and the people braved the ele-
ments and waded through mud shoetCp

Last spring he came, an unwelcome
visitor to most of the leaders of the
party in Richland county and Mans
field particularly. Now his coming is
anticipated as heralding success Tor
Hershey, through Col. w. w. Cockley
of Lexington, a man of considerable
influence in the county, is Hershey's
opponent.
Save for the Hanna-Herrick meeting
here Wednesday evening Mansfield has
had no political meetings of any con-
sequence since last spring, and the peo-
pie are anxious to hear Mayor John
son and Mr.. Clarke.
Arrangements are being made by the
local executive committee for the meet

ably the largest OF the campaign in
this county. A reception will be ten

A MONG the old landmarks that have
IA disappeared from Canton are the
old wooden mills. There was at one time
Joseph Kimmel's at the south end OF
the city, Just beyond where the east
and west creeks come together; the
Jacob Myers mills at the southeastern
part of Canton and the Jacob Sprankle
woolen mills one and quarter miles
northwest of the city. These have all
disappeared and most of the old build
ings have been taken away. In later
years Lawrence Alexander had quite n
large wooden mill on the southeast
corner of Cherry and Fourth streets.
All these woolen mills or factories nave
been abandoned as places for making
wooden cloth Of various kinds, and
very seldom do we now hear farmers
asking for the carding machines and
wooden factories as in former years.
In those early days it was quite COM
mon for farmers to take their wool to
the carding mac inc to be put into rolls
ready for the women to spin, or to
exchange the wool for cloth or have
their own wool worked into various
kinds of cloth for domestic use. Very
little Of this is done any more; the
old-fashioned tailor shops such as
those carried on by Jacob Rex, William
Lennon, David Agnew, Joseph Hart
man and others in the early history
of Canton are seldom found in these
days. Then we had men that kept a
small stock of goods which they used
in the tailoring business and at the
same time made UP garments from the
farmers own cloth when brought to
them for that purpose. Prominent
among these were Conrad Peter, V.
Rotharmel and others whose names do
not occur to me at this time.
But the most remarkable change was
the introduction of the sewing ma
chimes. Up to 1845 we had no sewing
machines. All was hand made work
we'll remember when / brought the
first sewing machine to the city. Al
that time was engaged In the cloth
ing and merchant tailoring business
and some of the women and others who
previously had been sewing for the
tailor shops got quite mad and said
was taking the bread out OF theil
MOUTHS, but the facts are that, from
tlgkt day to the present II has beer
more difficult to get sewing done thar
before the sewing machines we're In
