Maxine" the big interurban car,
running between Canton and Alliance,
attempted to run on two separate
tracks at the same time Sunday even

two cities was blocked for about five
hours. The big car was going down
Walnut street at slow rate of speed,
and when the intersection of Walnut
street and Fifth street was reached
the switch was thrown SO that the
car would proceed south on Walnut
Another track runs down Fifth street
and connects with the Walnut street
line, and every time car passes, the
switch must be thrown. In this in
stance the switch was thrown and the
front trucks of the car went forward
on the Walnut street track. However,
after they had passed, the switch fell
back In place again and the rear truck
went UP the Fifth street track for
probably 10 yards. The trucks, both

GOLDEN HUMANITY.

Richard Golden says that, while he
was playing an engagement In Denver
cecently, he was approached by "a
young man who, in hollow tones, de-
clared he had heard that, to see him
(the actor), was good for almost any
form of ailment.
( "You might help me-" the young
man declared. with labored breathing;
anyway, I'd like to enjoy myself once
more before l die-I have consump-
ton, you know. Could you let me have
a pass?"
A look of sympathy came over the
actors face as he drew out a card and
scribbled on 1t pass one. Richard
Golden"
The man took the card, looked at
1t, coughed more dlstressingly than
before, and asked: "Couadn't you
make 1t two-I would like to take a
friend?"
HAS your friend consumption,
too?" inquired the actor, solicitously.
"N-no-not yet," faltered the man.
'Tm afraid I can't accommodate
your friend, them" and smile broke
over the actors face. "You see. I
never give passes except to people with
the consumption"

BRAzING INVENTION
TO Be GIVEN TEST
Canton Manufacturers are In.
terested in Outcome of
Time. Savinq Device.

A test will be made in Akron thi,
week of what is said to be one Of the
greatest inventions of the age for man.
ufacturers The invention is a process
for brazing broken castings and the
test will probably be made at the Web
ster, Camp & Lane plant. Manufactur-
ers from Canton, Massillon and other
cities will witness the test.
For years men have tried to discover
a way to braze broken castings but
their efforts were met with continued
failures until experts came to regard
brazing of cast iron as one of the i'm
possible things. 1t remained for a
German, Frederick Pich, to make the
discovery and his announcement that
he had solved the problem that had
bothered workers In iron and steel for
years met with derision.
The great value of brazing is that
1t saves time. 1t is claimed that a big
fy-wheel that is broken can be re-
paired and put in running condition by
the brazing process in "a hours. With
out brazing it would be necessary tv
get an entire new wheel. This not only
would cost more money but it results
in loss of time which is very valuable
to companies especially during the rush
seasons.

with prospectors. The company has
taken the precaution to lease large
area in that section and will keep
the drill busy.
