LABOR DAY PARADE AT ALLIANCE
Canton Delegation Almost Failed to Materia|ize.
Salem and Sebnng Furnis he'd LargesCroWdS
and the Celebration Then Proceeded

Street and Miss Clara Mclaughlin of
Salem and Miss Matte Smith and Miss
Lizzie Edwards of Sebring, each one
silk umbrella were the prizes awarded
in the first contest.
The baby contest on the porch of the
city hall brought out about 40 babies.
VIM. Kelbs child was awarded the first
prize of five-dollar gold piece for be-
ing the pTettiest child in the crowd.
When the judges came to make a Sc
lection for the second prize they were
at loss to decide, and it was finally
agreed to give gold ring to each OF
the other 80 contestants.
The fat mems race resulted in a tie
between A. M. Clapsaddle of Alliance
and Quintin Valentine, Salem, and the
two prizes of 81 and So were divided.
The 10O-yard dash was won by Mr..
Stanley of Lloyd, J. f. Simpson of the
same place coming in second. The two
formed the team which won the first
prize in the three-legged race.
The 75-yard race for boys was won
by Raymond Hepp of Alliance, with
| Carol Brumbaugh close second.
The egg race was won by Alfred
King, S. Milbourn coming in second.
The two were the only ones out of ten
starters to finish
The 5O-yard race for girls was won
| by Ellen Stone of Alliance, with Hattie
Stocker second.
VIM. Howells won first place in the
amusing shoe and stocking race. Tom
! Mckinley took second.
Walter Crewson and VIM. Mott of
Sebring secured first and second places
respectfully in the swimming contest at
Lake Park.
John McGrath of Alliance had his
! family of 13 at the celebration and won
a half-barrel of flour thereby. Charles
Deitch got box of cigars for being
six feet six and one-half inches tall.
Elmer Earl won a similar prize as the
shortest man, he registering only five
feet.
THE BASEBALL GAMES.
Salem and Sebring divided the scanty
honors of the two ball games. In the
forenoon contest Salem won by the
score of II to 0. In the afternoon
Sebring turned the tables and won by
the score of IA to 5. The forenoon game
was a good one, the score being due
only to the heavy batting of the Salem
men. Several beautiful fielding plays
were pulled off on either side, and.
though the score was distinctly one
sided, the game was pretty one to
watch. Sebring was unable to connect
with Bransfield's speedy curves, while
Salem found Rice frequently.
In the afternoon game things were
exactly opposite. Salem had secured
Cooper, a Cleveland twirler, to do their
pitching, but after two innings, netting
: six runs for Sebring, he was taken out
and Faulk substituted. Faulk was eff
fective at first but later in the game
was hit harder than Cooper had been.

MRS. ."TAGGART HAD BEEN
A GUEST AT HIS HOME
Therefore Newberry Wouldn't Testify Against Her
Augustine Not Professional Beauty-The IRE
pressible "Biy' Again Under the Limelight

Wooster, o., Sept. At is expected
that some time tomorrow will wind up
the evidence in the Taggart divorce
case, and everything now points to that
conclusion. The greater part of today
was consumed with the evidence Of
Major Charles T. Newberry, a banker,
of both Pittsburg and Manila. While
his testimony in the main defended
Major Taggart, he asked to be excused
from testifying against Mrs. Taggart,
as she had been a guest at his house.
Newberry gave Augustine de la Cruz,
who, it is charged, had been a mistress
of Capt. Taggart, bad reputation for
beauty.
she was middle-aged woman, very
homely, smoked cigarettes, cigars
chewed tobacco and went in her bare
feet. "She would not make a leading
lady in ballet" he said.
Did you ever know of Capt. Taggart
having any intimacy with Augustine?
"No; such thing would be impossi-
ble," and the major gave utterance to
"a hearty laugh.
Newberry rather refuted the testi.
mony of the negro servant, Emma, as
to Taggart and Augustine locking the
doors of his house. '" '',1''
There were no keys in the doors OF
the house and they were never locked
at all,' he said Continuing, he added
that Taggart never mistreated his wife
that he knew of. ~
Mrs. Taggart was generally pleasant
to her husband. l never saw Mrs. Tag

Alliance, O., Sept. 4.-The Canton
tend the Labor Day celebration in this
city was conspicuous by its absence,
and as a result the parade this morn
ing, which was expected to be of i'm
mense proportions, was somewhat slim.
Only about ten Canton men appeared
in the parade.
Salem and Sebring we're well repre-
sented in the events of the day, and the
large crowds from those places helped
to make the day success. Prof. Fred.
Trey, whose parachute descent was to
have been one of the big features of the
day, was also absent. Advices from
him were received by the Labor Day
committee to the effect that his balloon
and apparatus had been burned up by
his partner while preparing for an as
cension at Elkins, w. Va, last Friday.
The committee telegraphed to Cleve-
land, Freeport and Elmira, N. Y, at
the last moment in an effort to secure
some one to take his place, but their
efforts were to no avail.
Despite the fact that this feature of
the entertained was lacking, and that
the Canton delegation failed to appear
the day was a success from every stand,
point. The numerous contests and
sports and the two ball games at the
park furnished all the amusement that
the time allowed, and in fact, had
| there been more entertainment, time
would not have been afforded for its
| enjoyment
THE DAYS EVENTS.
The program of the day opened with
the parade, which started from the foot
of Main street at about 10 o'clock
| Glen. Southworth acted as marshal ant
led the parade. Bands from Sebring
| Alliance and Salem led the delegations
from these places. The Business Men!
Association of Salem did themselve!
proud by their turnout and put tc
shame the Alliance business men, who
were scarcely represented.
The BARRIERS local of Alliance wa!
given the prize of SO for the best ap'
pearing local in the parade and the Sa
lem delegation won similar prize fol
the largest visiting delegation. TIL,
prize for the largest percentage o
membership in line has not yet beer
awarded. w. II. Purcell won the frs
prize and B. F. Weybrecht the seconC
for the best pony turnout. ]. c. Oh

Mayor Walker made an address o
welcome from the porch of the city hal

tions and commended the representa-
tives of the various industries of tn

Alliance Mans Throat Cut and He

Alliance, o., Sept. Ain a fight
among some foreigners on Mahoning
avenue this evening, one man had his
throat cut from ear to ear and will
probably die. The man is of Tyrolese
nationality, but his name cannot be
learned. Mahoning county officers are
on the trail of the man who committed
the assault, and it is supposed that he
ran toward Sebring.

Houston, Tex, Sept. 4.-The cele-

Scranton, Pa, Sept. 4.-The inclem-

rally with the observance of Labor
Day throughout the anthracite region,
in that the picnics at which talk

pOned until a more auspicious Occa-
sion. The labor day parades in all of
the cities of the anthracite district
were very much larger than usual, the
United Mine Workers of America hay-
ing their regular position on the right
of the various columns.
PARADE IN RAIN.
New York, Sept. A parade in the
morning, which suffered through a
downpour of rain and an afternoon and
evening at the various picnic and ex-
cursion resorts made up New York's la

in which 10000 men were to have taken
part, started off in driving rainstorm.

Cincinnati, O., Sept, 4,-Labor Day
was celebrated here today to an extent
fully up to the average for many years.
The parade was perhaps not quite as
large as in some previous years, but
the turnout at Chester Park, where the
principal exercises were held, was fully
up to the average attendance of the
past.

Why do work and worry and excess and
strain and over-indulgence break down con.
stitutions and make men and women worn out
and run down and restless and sleepless ana
discouraged and mOrOse? Because they weaken
the tiny, tender nerves on which lie itself de.
pends
not the nerves that govern your movements
and your thoughts.
But the automatic nerves that, unguided and
unknown, night and day, keep your heart in
late your liver-operate your kidneys.
These are the nerves that worry wears out and
work breaks down.
1t does no good to treat the aiIing organ--
the Irregular heart---the disordered lver--the
rebellious s'omach---the deranged kidneys.
They are not to blame. But 20 back to Inc
nerves that control them. There you will find
the seat OF the trouble.
1t does no good to take stimulants and mar.
cotics Tor theirs, at best, is but temporary
effect which merely postpones the final day Of
reckoning.
There is nothing new about this-notbine anv
physician would dispute. But it remained ior
DR.. Shoop to apply this knowledge-to put II to
practical use. DR.. Shops Restorative is the
result OF a quarter century Of endeavor along
this very line. 1t does not dose the organ to
deaden the pain---but 1t does go at once to the
nerve---the inside nerve the power nerve---and
builds 1t up, and strengthens it and makes Il
well. That is the end of all vital troubles.
That is the end of sleepless nights and restless
days. That is the end of nervousness the
end of brain flag and fatigue
If you are worn out, run down and have
never tried my remedy, merely write and ask.
Twill send you an order on your druggist which
he will accept as gladly as he would accept a

standard sized bottle of my prescription, and
only to strangers to my remedy Those who
have once used the Restorative do not need
this evidence. There are no conditions-no
requirements. 1t is open and frank and fair,
1t Is the supreme test OF my limitless belief.
All that ask you to do is to write-wri,e to-
