Remarkable Case A.
most Unheard of In
Medical Science.

Dean Mitchick, aged s years. son Of
Mr.. and Mrs Frank Mitchick, of 1885
Housed street, has been suffering from
lockjaw for the past three weeks and
Is still awe. This is an unusual case
and heroic measures are being resorted
to by DR. f. r. Hart to save the child
from what is usually certain death.
About six weeks ago the child was
cut across the back of his hand while
playing with shovel in the sand.
Three weeks later lockjaw set in and
the life of the lad was despaired of. His
jaws were firmly closed and he could
not talk or eat.
The carbolic acid treatment by hy-
podermic medication was used and this
kept the boy alive to the present day.
He has had no commissions since this
treatment was introduced and is per-
fectly rational most of the time "a

one prisoner, Charles Stackhouse, from

north wall at the west corner and OPP
ened fire on the guard who saw them.
He ran to his station, got his rifle and
returned the fire and forced the pair to
retreat. They hid, but were soon found
and placed in irons in solitary confine-

were responded to by the city police
A general outbreak was feared

and his deputies acted promptly. sum-
moning all guards who jumped into the
fray at once and soon quelled the trou-

drawn revolvers and all doors were
barred. Two patrol wagons filled with
city police dashed to the scene, but
found upon arriving that the peniten-
tiary officials had the situation well in
hand. Over 1000 people gathered at
the prison in short time and excite
ment was at its highest pitch.
Warden Darby believes large deliv-
ery of prisoners had been planned and
that prompt action prevented others
from Joining in the plot. The guards
have been armed with rifles but here

TRYING TO CORNER
THE MILK BUSINESS
Canton Men Meet With Poor
Success in Alliance
The Union Would
Not Submit.

Alliance, April 81. For several
DAYS two gentlemen. said to be from
Canton. have been in Alliance negotiat-
ing with the local milk dealers In an
effort to secure full control of the milk
business In this city. ~
When interviewed Monday one of
the local milkmen said that the Can
ton men had been to see nearly all OF
the dealers who sell in Alliance, but
we're not meeting with much success
The plan is to buy up the routes and
establish a central station from which
the wagons would be started out. The
present dealers would bring their stock
of milk direct to the central station.
There are about twenty dealers who
sell In Alliance. all Of whom are mem
bers OF the Alliance Milk Dealers un-
ion, which was organized some months
ago. The local men seem to think II
will be to their advantage to continue
selling as at present and as they will
likely hang together there is not much
prospect of the Canton people getting
a monopoly on the Alliance trade.

SCALE OF PROPERTY VALUES.

The assessors throughout the coun-
ty met at the auditors office Monday
and received their blanks and instruc-
tions. The situation was discussed at
some length. The assessors this year
In addition to securing list, of al
taxable property, must take what is
known as the quodrennial enumera-
tion, which includes list Of all male
inhabitants over 81 years Of age. This
is used as basis for liking the salar-
les of Ger .ain county officials.
u. W. Rohrbaugh, of Marlboro
tow nship, did not appear. and qualify
Tor the office of assessor. He did not
want it. Auditor Oberlin appointed
w. II. Diltz to do the work, and he
gave bond and received the supplies.
Owing to the delay in receiving the
supplies, some of the wards In Canton
will have to be divided. w. s. Stone,
elected in the First ward. will have
an assistant Stone will take every
thing east of Shorb street. The assist
ant has not yet been named. An addi-
tional assessor will be appointed for
Canton township outside of the city,
and 1t is probable that in some OF the
other wards help will be needed.
The law requires that all the work
must he done by the third Monday In
May, but Auditor Oberlin extended the
time one week so as to allow the as
SCISSORS to do their work right and gel
all the property.
A schedule of valuations was fixed
at the. meeting after considerable dis
cussion. 1t is higher than ever before
owing to the increased value of live
stock. 1t is to some extent sliding
scale. leaving the officials the right TO
exercise individual judgment.
First class horses are to be valued at
from $3.50 to $225; mares. $125 to 5000;
