MERCURY TAKES
A SUDDEN DROP
Temperature Falls 81 Degrees
In Twenty Hours.- Disagree.
abIe Weather Prom
ised.

The cold wave by weather prophets
long foretold with the emphasis on
the "long'D is here at last. And un-
less the representations of the wea-
ther sharps fail them, the cold weather
will continue for some time. At noon
Thursday Prof. G. F. Stokey, the local
observer of the U. s. weather bureau,
stated that the weather today would
remain cloudy and disagreeable all day
and that the indications pointed to a
considerable drop in the temperature
by Friday morning.
The mercury's fall was most rapid.
Wednesdays maximum temperature
was reached at p. m, when S5 de-
grees was registered.
During the night the weather began
getting cooler and at p. m. the ther-
mometers registered 70 degrees. At Z
o'clock Thursday morning, the mark
was 60 degrees; at 10 q. m, 54.8 de-
grees and at II a. m. 1t had risen to
81 degrees.
It is explained that the drop in the
temperature hereabouts is owing to the
extreme cold spell that has been pre-
vailing in the northwest during the
past few days.

ORDERS FOR
THE EIGHTH
Each Company is to be
Recruited to Its Full
Strength.

The Eighth Ohio will be the first
body of troops from the state that ever
participated in the maneuvers with
the regular army. That the regiment
won the honor Of representing the
state is a reason for pride for every
city having a company of the Eighth.
Companies are instructed to begin re-
cruiting at once, with only good men
not necessarily drilled men, but meE
of good character.
The following is Col VolIrath's Or
der. General Orders No. 10:
1. In accordance with the designa'
tion Of the governor of Ohio and the
orders of>the war department at
Washington, d. c., this command will
go into U. s. camp Of instruction at
West Point, Kentucky, Sept. 80 to Oct.
H., 1903, exclusive Of time required for
transportation to and from said point.
2. Transportation, subsistence, in
cluding travel. rations and pay. for
services, will be furnished by the U.
8. government, the perdiem of OFF,
GERS and men being the same as that
for the regular service.
3. 1t is thedesire Of the regimental
commander to have each company fill
ed to its maximum strength. For tnis
purpose immediate enlistments should
be secured and every effort made to
obtain the desired result. kilograms
thus far received from the several
company commanders indicate that
some Of the companies already have
the desired quota and others will ex-
perience little difficulty in filling the
ranks.
4. Officers and men are reminded OF
the fact that this tour of duty will.
more than ever before, subject the
regiment to public scrutiny. We will
represent the state of Ohio in compe-
tition with the troops of other states,
as well as the United States. Much
therefore, depends upon each individ-
ual member of the regiment. No un-
desirable material should be taken
No mistakes must be made Each in

regiment and of the state in his keep

there will be at least one speaker at
the tent meeting at New Philadelphia
Wednesday night.
Accordingly, it was without the COM
pany of the senatorial candidate that
Mayor Johnson started upon day
destined to be a record breaker in the
annals of automobile campaigning. 1t
was undoubtedly wise decision by Mr.
Clarke. Mayor Johnson arrived in
New Philadelphia at S:45 o'clock, after
Mr. Clarke had been speaking an hour.
Had Mr.. Clarke been with the mayor
there would have been no tent meeting
and the 4,5OO who gathered to hear the
two orators would have been turned
away disgusted, after listening to a few
remarks of apology by some local par
tisan.
The red devil" covered 75 miles OF
actual travel, there were two serious
breakdowns, necessitating delays OF
an hour and of forty-five minutes, and
there were two political meetings, one
at Bridgeport and one at Cadiz.

ments, was accorded tremendous ova'
ton when he entered the tent. In spite
of his labors Of the day, Mr.. johnson
made an extended speech. He spent
more time than usual in his discussion
of Senator Hanna's record and his de
nunciation of his acts as United States
senator. He repeated the invitation
already accorded the senator to come
charges before Mr.. Johnson's own au
diences.
81 would rather defeat a Democra
who has betrayed his trust" said Mayo
Johnson, than to fight a Republican
who has not done wrong. We hav,
cleaned our house, and we ask you he
publicans to do a job of house clean

the high officials who have proven
false to you and have represented {
few people rather than the people o

1T is my faith in the people," SAT-
Mr.. Johnson, in conclusion, "tha

BUDDY JONES'

North Lawrence Man
Tells OF Fight With
the Pennells.

The Hon. John P. Jones, of North
Lawrence, was in Canton Wednesday
and attended the fair in the afternoon.
When asked about his difficulty with
C. Pennell last Saturday night ne was
rather reluctant to talk, but finally was
induced to tell his side of the story.
He will have a hearing before Squire
Sibila at Massillon next Tuesday and
will act as his own lawyer, which is
a privilege a private citizen has under
the law.
According to Jones' statement, Pen
nell had rented a building from him
and was back on the rent. When he
vacated the building he did not turn
the key over to his landlord and when
Jones sued for the re2t, he got ver-
dict for the rent for all the time Pen
nell held the key.
Other judgments were secured about
the same time, and Pennell got sore
being especially angry at times at
Jones. He had made threats what he
would to to Buddy" and last Satur-
day night. according to John P.'s story,
Pennell had a knife and was telling a
crowd how he would carve up Jones
At that time Jones appeared upon
the scene and Pennell said. you're

threats and said: You're right" and
handed Pennell one with his big fist

with a knife, when he gave him a

laws of righteousness. You left us a
reunited country; reunited in fact as
we'll as in name. You left us the right
of brotherhood with your gallant foes
who wore the gray; the right to feel
pride in their courage and their high
fealty to an ideal, even though they
warred against the stars in their
courses. You left us also the most
splendid example of what brotherhood
really means; for in your careers you
showed in practical fashion that the
only safety in our American life lies
in spurning the accidental distinctions
which sunder one man from another,
and in paying homage to each man
because of what he essentially is: in
stripping off the husks of occupation,
of position, of accident, until the soul
stands forth revealed, and we know
the man only because of his worth as a
man.
There was no patent device for secur-
ing victory by force of arms forty years
ago; and there is no patent device for
securing victory for the forces OF
/ righteousness in civil life now. In
each case the all-important factor was
and is the character of the individual
man. Good laws in the state, like q

Great Medi@ai DiSCOY 3Ty


Baltimore, NJ rch I. Another
great discvvercr,, the antiloxin
which shall destroy, the germ of
cholera infantum, has been an
nounced by DR. Simon FleXn Y,
the director of the Rockefeller
Institute of Medical Research.
1t was the death of his grand
son that turned Mr.. Rockefeller's
attention to the absolute inability
of the medical profession to cope
with the disease, that annually
carries off many thousands of in
fants, and resulted IN the plans
for the establishment of lnbora-
tory and hospital that is to be
built in New York. Last fall,
the announcement that two stud
ems Of John Hopkins medical
school had discovered the germ
which caused the death of mill
lions of chiIlren was received.
1t was then stated that the ener-
gies of the investigators would be
directed toward the discovery of
a serum which would dc stroy the
baciIli
Dir. FleXner says the perfect-
ing of it would occupy but few
months longer.
