FIELD DAY
PREPARATIONS ARE NEAR
ING COMPLETION
FOUR RECORDS BROKEN
In the Practice of the Past
Few Weeks.

Preparation for field day, May 13, is
rapidly nearing completion and the
prevailing fine weather is daily devel-
oping the qualities of the contestants.
During the past week at least rs OF the
boys have been present every afternoon
showing the interest that Is being taken
In the athletics and developing the
prospects for an interesting contest on
Friday next.
Three afternoons, Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday. Of the past week were
spent in going through the entire pro-
gram of events to aid Captain O'Brien
In selecting the team which will go to
Wooster for the inter-high school meet,
June 4. While this selection is not
final, the rules laid down by the Woos-
ter association demand that the con-
testants' names be forwarded them
before the 10th of May. Manager
Harry Haylor, complying, will mail the
entry blanks this afternoon.
Thus far, four of the High school
records have been broken, and those
during the short practice Of the past
few weeks. Two or three are near the
danger mark, while the running broad
and high jumps are not being touched
by any of the entries. The records
which the present aspirants for the
team are striving to beat are: For the
mile run, $50, held by Rupert Beeth-
am; half-mile, 2.22, Howard Book;
hammer throw, 91.5, Herbert Schory;
pole vault, 81, Robert Meyers; shot
put, S711, Hugh Crevoisie; high jump,
ga, Louis Wolinsky; standing broad,
s.5. Louis Wolinsby; running broad
jump, 1919, Arthur Weary. Exception
al records are those of the sprints
Ralph Wheeler leaves a record of 10 3-5
in the 100-yard dash; George Cook, OF
2f % in the 22O-yard, and SO in the
440-yard dashes. Webster Faust has
broken the mile record. Elmer Schell-
hase the standing broad jump, Herbert
Schory the hammer throw and William
knoderer the pole vault. William
Holl, running the 440-yard dash in
81 2-5, and Captain O'Brien covering
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1904-05-10

the 100-yards In 10 4-5, place these rec
ords not far from the reach of these
men on field day. This is the first year
the hurdles have been tried by the To-
cal association, so no record Is up in
this event. Ralph Hall and Edmund
WILLIAMS have run the full course of
220-yard low hurdles In 80 seconds.
Those who were successful in the
miniature meets held during the past
week, in practice, constitute the team
as will be forwarded to Wooster. Cap
tain O'Brien says, however, that this is
not the final lineup and II is not at all
probable that the team will remain un-
changed since the deciding selection
cannot be made until after the exer-
cises on field day The winners are:
One-mile run-Faust, Lowenstein.
Half-mile run-Walters, Brown.
Four hundred and forty-yard dash
Holl, Robb.
One hundred-yard dash-O'Brien and
Holl.
Two hundred and twenty-yard low
hurdles--Hall, Williams.
One hundred and twenty-yard hur-
dles--Hall, Williams.
Hin jump-Fries, McNally.
Running broad irmp-O'Brien, Ev.
ans.
Shot put-Haylor, Schory
Hammer throw-Schory, Weger.
Mile relay race, four to be selected
Faust, Walters, Brown, Holl, Robb, and
Griffin.
The contest for the above team will
be highly exciting, since the remainder
of the 35 entries are in good condition
and many of the above entries were
won after hot contests. Instead of dis
couraglng those who were not among
the 'firsts," the trials of last week
seem to be urging them on. Many OF
the boys spent Saturday practicing al
the fair grounds.

committee in charge of field day, has

tee reports the event as being favorably

city, many of whom have helped sup

and urgently requested to patronizt
their efforts in the future.

AN EDITOR TALKS
In Canton on Work ot
Anti-SalOon League.l

Rev. ]. C. Jackson, of Columbus, o.,
delivered an interesting and instructive
address to a large audience at Trinity
Reformed church, Sunday morning, in
the interest of the Anti-Saloon league.
Mr.. jackson is editor of the American
Issue, the organ of the league In this
state. The speaker quoted some ap-
palling figures, bringing out the de-
grading effect of intoxicating liquor. He
said that 1900 Christian churches In
Ohio are affiliated with the leagues
work; the league at present employs II
men regularly. The American Issue,
during the past year, has distributed
81, ,000, 900 pages of reform literature
and 10000 copies of the paper; there
are 1900 children in Ohio who are idi-
OTIS because they are children Of drunk
ards, and by actual investigation that
one-half of the people inhabiting our
asylums were sent there by the use of
strong drink.
Last year." he continued there
were more than 10000 people ruined by
for eternity"
Rev. Jackson related the history of
securing the present system of local op-
tion. The Anti-Saloom Leogue,
though opposed by the governor Of
Ohio, won out after II years of years
fighting. With tears in their eyes the
audience listened to the pathetic ap-
peal from the pulpit that the saloon be
crowded out of our state and country.
In conclusion the speaker said: Just
as Gettysburg marked the high-water-
mark of the rebellion, so the passage
of the Brannock residence option bill
marks the high watermark of the pow
er of the saloon.

quite sanguine on the noodle question

The Democrats had very pleasant
time in Alliance, but some would have
preferred Gotham or Youngstown

Yes, Alliance is one of those quiet
places where, II one wishes any fun or
excitement, he has to stir It up for
himself. Alliance is on the margin Of

PEACE CONGRESS ENDS
Russian and Japanese Delegates Nee
on Same Platform and
Shake Hands

Boston, Oct. 1.-THE International
Peace congress assembled today for it's
closing session. President Paine, say
ing the representatives of all the great
nations had been given an opportunity
to respond, introduced Jiro Abraham,
to speak for Japan. Mr.. Abraham In
the course of his remarks said he was
willing to admit that militarism was on
the increase in Japan, but he declared
there was good ground for that expec-
tation that when present conditions
were brought to an end peace would
be the moving spirit of the nation.
DR.. JOIN Chirug. delegate from Rus
STA, asked for a moment to correct a
statement mad yesterday by John
Burrows, and this was granted. AS
Dr.. Chirug passed to the platform,
where Mr.. Abraham Of Japan was sit
ting, a woman delegate arose and said:
"Dr. Chirug. it would gladden. my
heart to see you shake hands with Mr..
Abratani-Russia and Japan-iu a
friendly clasp:
Il should be most happy the Rus
sian answered, as he moved toward
the Japanese and warmly seized his
hand, saying, Il am glad to greet my
fellowman."
When DR.. Chirug had concluded his
statement the committee on questions
of the day reported resolutions in favor
Of investigation into the present gov
eminent of the Congo Free State.
The resolutions were adopted. as was
a report which declared thai If the
economic causes of war were removed
then war would not exist, and that the
fundamental feature Of causes was
class and commercial antaSonism be-
tween peoples. They also recommended
that a study be made of Socialistfc
trades unions and trust movements.

cupants with tremendous force to the
roadway.
OF nineteen starters, but seven were
left when the seventh lap of the course
was concluded. Bursted tires, broken

rangements were the causes for drop
ping out. On one part of the course a
large quantity of nails and broken
glass was found, which caused many
collapsed tires.

claring Heath the winner of the race.

act hat the operations against the
Russian forces have been a disappoint-
ment. 1t vas believed thai long be-
fore this the place would be in the
hands of the japanese. The desperate
defense of General Stoessel, while call
ing for admiration on the part of the
Japanese war office, has caused more or
less disarrangement of the plans. The
question which is now given careful
consideration is whether 1t is better to
undertake the reduction Of the place by
regular siege operations and by di-
verting all the men not necessary for
the purpose to the carrying out Of 9TH

1t was the intention to begin the at
tack on Vladivostok when Port Arthur
had been captured. Plans are now
complete for the undertaking Of this
work without waiting for the fall OF
the southern stronghold.
It is known that of least two pro-
tracted assaults on Port Arthur have
been made by the Japanese and re-
pulsed with enormous loss of life. The
Japanese COL several forts and inn
portant positions and even fought In
the Russian trenches, but were driver,
back. There is much dissatisfaction In
Japan at the protracted operations and
a strong party opposes the majority
and advocates stopping all attempt TO
capture the fortress. They say that
the hest method is t leave just enough
men to keep General Stoessel busy and
concentrate every available soldier on
