COURT NOTES
QUITE A DIFFERENCE.

The case of Margaret Graham
against w. c. Williams. which had
been appealed from Justice court to
common pleas, was settled for SO. Fri
day, the defendant agreeing to pay
the costs. When the action was
brought the plaintiff asked only $12.
but in justice court judgment was
allowed for $3S. which is said to have
been a surprise to the plaintiff as well
as the defendant. The defendant ap-
pealed the case, and when a PROPOSE
tion was made to settle for SO it was
accepted.
DIVORCE ASKED.
Lavina Dennis, of Alliance, has filed
a petition for divorce against Christ
ian Dennis, who resides in Carrollton.
They were married in Mt. Union in
1882 and no children were born. The
wife alleges that the husband has not
lived with her for many years. He
is quite an old man and resides with
a daughter by former marriage. AL
len Cook is counsel for the plaintiff.
WILL NATURALIZE.
Judge Henry w. Harter will go to
Carrollton Monday to issue naturaliza-
tion papers to those who may desire
to become citizens before the elec-
tion, and Judge Ambler will sit as q
naturalization court in room No in
Canton for the same purpose. Quite
a number of foreigners have taken
out blanks from the clerks office pre-
liminary to becoming voters. The
rush will not be as great as formerly
owing to tie cost.
There will be very little court mex
week, as attorneys and litigants will
be too much exercised over the elec
ton to take part in legal controversies

THE DRIVERS
DISCHARGED
BY Sanitary MIX Co..

A lockout was sprung upon the
drivers at the Sanitary Milk plant
Saturday morning when they reported

no longer needed and other men were
put upon the wagons and started out
to look up the customers.
The trouble originated from revi-
val of the old controversy over wash
ing bottles and the per cent paid to
drivers for sales in excess of $40 a
week. The men had learned that the
bottle washing was to be placed upon
them again and the per cent taken off
so that each man would have to work
for $40 week straight. They had
planned to have a conference with the
management Sunday. but the company
would not wait.
A movement for economy has been
started in the plant
General Manager John c. Harmony
the superintendent and bookkeeper
have all been discharged.
The men claim that they had beer
working long hours and that they were
justified in their demands. All the
discharged drivers have secured Other
positions, and the superintendent is al
the head of a movement to start an
other milk plant in East Tuscarawas
street.

Nationalist Sentiment In Canada.

Sir Wilfrid Laurier's declaration that
he regrets Canada does not possess
treaty making powers naturally pro-
duces shock in England. For how
can government have treaty-mak-
ing powers without being independent?
So long as the dominion stays under
England's wing the kings own minis
ters must have charge of Canada's for
eign relations. Probably the Canadian
premier can explain away his remark
to the satisfaction of his British i'm
perialist friends; yet 1t is a safe guess
that when he made it he was instinct
lively giving expression to that nation
alistic sentiment of the dominion which
cannot be entirely submerged and
which has risen to food tide as the
result of the Alaskan boundary deci-

COAL FAMINE
Cannot OccurThis Win
tor, Says Local
Dealer.

There will be no coal famine in this
winter and the price of the black
Jumps will remain at normally low
figure. SO says George A. Williams,
local coal dealer. Unless the mines
are tied up by strikes or the railroads
impeded by similar difficulties, there
will be plenty of fuel in the market.
Bituminous coal mined In this dis
trict is selling much lower than at
any time last season, while anthracite
is so plentiful that many eastern mines
have been shut down, that the price
may not drop. too low. All this is good
news to everybody but the operators.

notes indicating the anniversaries of I'm

FLOWERS NEVER so DEAR.
Exquisite Boxes Used by the Correct
Florists to Pack Them In.

From the New York Sum-
Florists say that flowers have never been
so dear to women as they are now. Perhaps
that is because flowers were never more
dear to price, for 1t must be confessed
that the rib-sex has liking for big figures
Again it may be that the exquisite boxes in
which flowers are distributed by the correct
florist have something to do with the in
creased demand for them In themselves
these boxes bring a breath of spring
The daintiest have delicate gold or silver
backgrounds and have sprinkled over them
in careless grace and profusion the flowers
they bear. For instance, a young man
whose fancy Is lightly turning would not
dream of sending forget-me-nots to the OBJ
ject of his admiration in plain white box.
He chooses one Of silver decorated with
forget-me-nots natural looking enough to
almost emit a fragrance. The Black-eyed
Susaninon gold background are very eff
fectiyeO and SO are all of the harbngers Of
spring, such tulips, narcissus, hyacinths
and the like. The green boxes decorated
with English violets are refreshing to the
eye, If somewhat depicting to the pocket
book when filled. and the big boxes for
long-stemmed American Beauties are pre-
served by their fortunate possessors as
treasures for holding gloves. wells and
handkerchiefs Of the Sunday-best kind.
