WORK ON CA.
CAR BARNS
New Structure Will be
Completed by
July I.

The large car barns of the Canton
Akron Railway Co. will be completed
by July 1. The building is double
structure, with a middle partition
wall. One section was built right
around the old barn, which has been
removed as the work progressed. The
building will be one of the most COM
plete of its kind in the state and has
capacity for more cars than the COM
pany has on hands at present. 1t was
calculated to house a full equipment
for the local and interurban lines.
An Office has been built in connec-
tion with it for the barn foreman and
the fixtures. The tracks will be laid
in soon and By the first of the month
everything will be completed. The
building is of nice architectural design
and with the power house located near
makes "a fine showing from the West
Tuscarawas street front. =.

nice PRESENT
TO.COvERNOR
Cuyahosa County Will
Send Him $50 In
diuent Insane.

The agitation began by the Stark
county commissioners over the care OF
the insane inmates of the infirmary
is being taken up in various other
counties of the state and Governor
Nash is having his share Of trouble
trying to settle the question. The Co.
lumbus Citizen of Wednesday says:
Governor Nash has been informed
by the Cleveland officials that if the
state does not take some definite action
in the case of the $50 insane inmates
of the infirmary that they will be load
ed on a special train and shipped to
Columbus and turned over to the gov
ernor.
This condition of affairs is brought
about by the passing of an act by the
legislature prohibiting the confinement
of cases of insanity in county infrm-
aries after June 1.
Recently Attorney General Sheets
rendered an opinion holding that de-
spite this law the county officials could
proceed as in the past in the case of in
sane persons as the law made no provl-
sions for their maintenance by the
state, and again there was no penalty
attached for its violation.
The county commissioners of Stark
county insist upon obeying the new
law and have instructed the prosecut-
ing attorney to have all insanity pa
tients in the infirmary removed to the
Massillon hospital
"The only thing that appeals to me
just now" said Superintendent Emde,
of the Cuyahoga county infirmary, 'is
to charter a special train, take the
insane to Columbus, march them down
Higt street, some in carriages and
come on foot, and take them into the
state house where they belong. The
thing to do is to dump them into the
governors quarters, and, being wards
of the state, it is up to the state to
take care of them.
This special train idea is no idle
dream. / will give the state sufficient
time to take them off our hands. II
nothing is done within the time limit
the train will be chartered. There is
nothing else left to do. for we are
breaking the law every day. I guaran-
tee to take the 27O inmates to Column
bus at the expense of $780, Unless
we hear from Governor Nash soon
will do it,"

SO as not to exhaust the patience Of
the convention. Mr. Jones expects to
have the undivided support of the dis
trlct Last night it was the field
against Bonebrake, the third term can
didate, with Jones stock running high.
Sentiment was strong against third
tcrmism last night and it may follow
that Guilbert for auditor will be the
only third term candidate nominated.
Sheets, for supreme Judge, will get a
goodly share of the votes of the Eight
eenth. In the treasuryship fight Nc
Kinuon will fare better in the dis
trict than Sims. McKinnon looks like
a winner although Sims has made
some gains.

what county Hon. Bob. Tayler Is from.
He is credited from both Columbiana
and Mahoning. He is here as dele
gate from MahOning and only last
week attended the Wellsville senator's
al delegation as a delegate from CO.

the omnipresent delegate. Mr.. Tayler

increased during the year, there hav-
ing been only three deaths and two

Judgment Of these small bits of indiges-

This fear is utterly baseless since
the healthy appendix is protected by
a valvular arrangement which pre-
vents even the smallest seeds from en-
tering it. 1t is only after Inflammation
has already destroyed its normal pro-
lection that any foreign substance can
gain access to it.
ITO feel compelled to eschew all
