URGE ACTION ON
THE BARGE CANAL
Advocates OF Waterway Be-
tween Ohio River and Lake
Erie Say II Will Redues
Freight Rates.

Columbus, O., Jan. 15.-The Ohio
Coal association, which held its an
nual meeting in this city yesterday,
this morning presented to the state
board of public works arguments in
favor of the Improvement Of the Ohio
canal from Dresden north, with the
ultimate object in view of the opera
tion of a barge canal between the
Ohio river and Lake Erie.
C. U. Shryock, Of GAINESVILLE, former
state senator, was the principal
speaker. He asked the board to take
steps toward putting the canal be-
tween Cleveland and Dresden into
condition for business at once. He re-
quested that the old canal be given
connection with the Muskingurl river,
which furnishes shipping facilities as
far south as Coshocton, whence the
canal runs to Marietta on the river.
He asked that immediate action be
taken to order that the next legisla-
of the work. and may make an ap-
preparation therefor.
Mr.. Shryock charged that consolida-
ton has practically destroyed railroad
competition, ard said that there are
now in Ohio only three Independent
railroad systems, the Wabash, the
Pennsylvania, and the Lake Shore.
He urged that the canals be main
tanned in order that lower freight
rates may be assured the people. He
said that the people are not satisfied
with the present limitations placed
upon canal transportation, and said
that public sentiment in GAINESVILLE
Is all against the way in which the
canals are at present managed. He
characterized the boards present poll
cy as "do-nothing' and "salary-draw-
ing"
Other speakers, all OF whom sup
ported Mr.. Shryock, were Daniel ].
Ryan. of Columbus; Rev. Father ]. B.
Schmidt. Of Dresden, who urged the
expenditure Of $5.O00,000 on the ca
nails; Fl. s. Emerson, Of Newcomers
town; K. b. Silk. of Massillon, and
r. II. Evans, Of GAINESVILLE, who pre-
sented resolutions recently adopted by
the GAINESVILLE Builders exchange.

The application of the Wheeling e.

Webber and Turner argued In behalf
of the electric company and attacked
the rights Of the railway company, in
sisting that 1t had no. complied with
the law in acquiring some of its
rights. Numerous authorities were
cited on both sides and there are some
delicate law points to be determined.

years of age and weighs but AZ
pounds. Mrs. Winner is an inch
shorter than her diminutive husband,
is % years of age and weighs but 40
pounds.
Did | think I would ever find bet
ter half" repeated the major when
asked il he had thoughts of marriage
before he met the lady who is now his
wife. why If anybody had said ten
years ago that l would ever be mar
ried would have told him that he
was crazy" laughingly calculated the
Tom Thumb Of modern times.
How did we meet?"
We'll, I was travelling with Ring
ling brothers circus and happened to
hear of young lady living in Mason.
Mich. / sent her a letter and soon we
became deep in correspondence.
Photographs were exchanged and then
we planned a meeting. 1t was agreed
that II we liked each other when we
pSt that a marriage would follow.
The ceremony took place in the opera
house at Mason lefore a crowd of
about 1000 people in February, 1896"
While the major energetically calls
upon the crowd to come and see the
little folks, here we are" Mrs. Win
