The Pride Of Columbus
The Greatest of All Amuse.
ment Resorts

Olentangy Park, Theatre and
Geological Garden, the pride of
Columbus, has become the chief
attraction of the Capital City, and
is drawing excursionists and visit
ors from all parts of the state. Its
one hundred acres of picturesque
landscape, and its deep ravine,
high bluffs, natural forest trees,
exquisite lawns and profusion of
flowers affords an ideal place for
a days outing. Tables and seats
for the free use of picnic parties
are found in convenient shady pla-
ces on the grounds. The beautiful
Olentangy river, which flows trho'
the grounds, is a favorite place for
bathing and boating, and modern
bathing pavilion and boat house
offers excellent facilities for lovers
of water sports. In the Geological
Garden is found the Museum of
Ornithology, containing over two
thousand specimens of birds and
animals, also, the open-air animal
circus, the Floral Conservatory,
and the best collection of rare wild
beasts and birds in the country.

Under False Pretenses

A fellow named Comstock, for
about ten years a resident of our
town, and seemingly fair honest
going man, working for Ksssler,
and occasionly for Snider, was ar
rested for obtaining money under
false pretenses. He would borrow
money in small sums, and prompt
ly pay it back. He would get Sc
curity on a note, and in due time
show his securities the note, and
tear it up. Lately he played the
Madam Chadwick game with toll
erably slick hand. He claimed to
have notes and mortgages on good
farms, the notes not yet due and
he wanted some ready money to
use In building on couple of lots
he owned. He got Jess Gabriel,
Doc Mill, DR.. Smith and several
others on notes from $50 to $3.50.
He kept promising to pay from one
day to another. On Monday it was
discovered he was packing his
goods prepatory to jumping the
town. 1t was learned that he had
no lots, had no notes, had nothing
but his household goods. His Sc
curities had him arrested and he is
now in Jail. Wright & Petit have
his notes with good security to an
amount of $3.50, and perhaps more
to hear from.

ing. For the week beginning June
25th Lockhart's troupe of trained
elephants has been engaged as a
special attraction. Seven other
acts of superior excellence will al
SO be presented, making this the
biggest and best vaudeville show

Scores of other amusement fea-
lures are found on the Park, in
cluding everything that ingenuity
could devise and money could build,
and it is now conceded that Olen-

ter amusement features than all
other summer resorts in the state
combined. A day will not suffice
to see it all and those who once
visit this summer play grounds IN
variably become regular patrons.
Free band concerts are given ev-

KILLED BY THE CARS
Nathan Wheeler Run Over by
the Logan Yard Engine and
Crushed to Death

On Yesterday morning a young
man, 90 years of age, named Ma
than Wheeler. Of New Straitsville,
was run over by the yard engine
and so injured that be died within
an hour.
Wheeler had been working for
some time at the brick yards and
furnace at New Straitsville, his
home. On Tuesday night he and
his companion, named Proctor,
walked to Logan, intending to
JUMP train for Columbus. The
two started to cross the track, keep
ing in view the north bound train
and did not notice the yard engine
going south at the time, and over
the track on which Wheeler was
crossing. He was knocked down
and the wheels passed over him,
cutting off the left leg near the
body and the right leg below the
knee. He died within an hour.
The remains were put in charge
of J. A. Oliver. and in the after
noon were taken by the Straitsville
undertaken to his home.
The coroner, who gave the case
prompt attention, thinks the young

reckless in their purpose to jump
the train.
The fatality was in no way the
fault of The men on the yard en-
gine, who did not see the man on
the track until the engine was on
him.
