have achieved the success of this one. not
even IN this city. but throughout the coun-
try as well, where this play was Miss

won favor, and it Is reasonable to sup

THE AKRON STORY.
The Akron Beacon-Journal had the
following account Of the arrest of the
boys:
Joseph Young of Canton and William
Forsythc Of Akron were arrested by
Fatrolmen King and Goodenberger
Saturday at noon, charged with a mur-
derous assault upon John Miller Of
Canton Friday night. Patrolman John
King saw the pair on Howard street
near Market and calling to F'orsythe,
engaged him in conversation. The To-
cal police received instructions to ar
rest either on sight, advices having
been receivd from Canton connecting
them with the crime. Forsythe sum
moned up his courage when the officer
Il ot& ntn ~ ~t,,Ag 10
Off. King managed TO keep him engag-
ed until Patrclman Goodenberger ar
rived in sight, Goodenberger having a
| beat in the same district.
ARREST that man." suddenly cried
King pointing to Young, graphing
meanwhile with young Forsythe, who
showed fight when the officer tried to
put the bracelets on him. There was
a hard fight before the men were final
| ly Quieted and landed in the patrol
wagon.
They were brought to police head
quarters, where they sullenly refused
to talk. They were taken from this
place to the city prison and ladged in
| Jail awaiting the arrival of the Canton
police, who had been hastily summon
| ed.
Forsythe is common tramp wh0
has been making Akron his headquar-
ters for some months. He was sent
to the Canton works from Akron, Octo.
bcr 7, for petit larceny in stealing o
pocket book from Charles w. Seiber-
ling. His term expired Friday, and 4,
was only few hours after leaving the
workhouse that he is alleged to have
committed the heinous murder. He ia
only IL years old but his face bears
many evidences that he Is old in
crime IL not in years. He is nervously
alert and cat-like in his movements
and gave Patrolman King terrific
fight before he was finally secured.

ROOT ROASTS MILES
ON EYE OF HIS
RETIREMENT
Former Lieutenant Gen.
eral "Rare Exception"
BUT PUBLIC LIKES HIM

Washington, ID. c.. Dec. 6.-While
making no mention Of his retirement
from the cabinet at the middle of Feb
ruary, Elihu Root, secretary Of war,
In his annual report, just made to
the president, takes occasion to expess
his keen and grateful appreciation
of the kindness, generous loyarlty and
sincere effort which, with rare excep-
tions have characterized the chiefs of
bureaus" The rare exception" was
the attitude of former Lieutenant
General Miles. He says: "A country
is fortunate which has such officers to
rely upon In the time of need"
The secretary makes a strong re-
commendation for suitable appropri-
practice and says: II know Of moth
ing more important in preparing for
war than teaching the young men Of
the country to shoot straight. 1t is
especially important to the efficiency
of our volunteer armies in the future.
1t is Of no use TO pay, equip, srbsist,
or transport a soldier to the battle
field unless he can hit an enemy when
he shoots at him. Two recent changes
in conditions require that we should
make continuous and active progress.
One is the change of modern rifles
which determines battles while the
combatants are at great distances
from each other, and which makes
practice more necessary for good mark
manship than ever before. The other
Is the decline in the use of firearms
among the greater part of our people.
Formerly when our population was
scattered and game was abundant in
all parts Of the country every mouse
had its rife or its shotgun, and every
boy learned to shoot them. Now it is
probable that majority of the young
men in the thickly settled parts OF the
country have never fired a gun and
would be quite harmless to an enemy
until taught to shoot. The time to
! give that instruction is now. We
ought not to wait until we are actual
ly engaged in hostilities. When that
times comes they will not wait for us {
give the instructions"

Committeeman From Texas,
Comes Out in His Favor.

Dallas, Texas, Dec. Cool. r. NJ.
ohnson, Democratic national commit
teeman from this state in an interview
today declared that he favored the
nomination by the next Democratic
convention of Alton B. Parker, chief
judge OF the court of appeals of New
York state, as the candidate of the
Democracy for president
Col. johnson declared that the ac-
tion of President Roosevelt in with
holding from General Nelson A. Miles,
the usual courtesy of laudatory Or
der, on the occasion of his retirement
and the unprecedented manner in
which he has attempted to promote
General Leonard Wood over the
heads of more deserving army officers,
has alienated from hi n the support of
many Republicans who would welcome
the opportunity OF voting for man of
such exalted character as Alton B.
Parker. With him as their standard
bearer Col. Johnson predicts that the
Democratic party would be swept in
to power by landslide of enormous
proportions.
