ANSWER FILED

Answers have been filed in two di-
vorce cases in common pleas court.
jeremiah Keller, proprietor of the
Keller electrical works in this city,
was sued by his wife for divorce some
time ago and he has come back with
an answer in which he denies the
charges that his wife made. He says
that instead of his striking her, she
tried to strike him and he pushed her
away and she fell down. He admits
that they quarreled and that he left
her on March 8, but insists that the
trouble was due to the fact that she
belongs to several secret societies and
has mad infatuation for the stage.
belonging to a minstrel theatrical
company that gives shows in Canton.
He says that she neglects her house
hold duties and is away from home
several nights in each week at the So
ciety meetings and minstrel shows,
and that often in the morning she is
so exhausted that she cannot get up
and get his breakfast for him. Attor-
ney G. c. Upham Is counsel.
Attorney Upham also filed an an
swer in the case of Matte M. Powell
against Thomas Powell. The defend
ant is the engineer at the Mckinley
hotel. He admits that he left her in
June last, but that 1t was because he
was ordered away. He says that she
demanded that he give her their home
and 500 and get out, which he did.
He says that prior to the time of her
bringing the suit he had not been un-
faithful to her. He is not fighting the
divorce but does not want his wife to
be decreed alimony.

White Carrots az Fodder.

]. Fl. Mahon in Agricultural Report
says: In an experiment reported, 4
COWS were kept on natural pasture for
a period Of days, after which they
were fed a daily allowance of about
30 lbs. of carrots per head for a Sec
ond period of 8 days, following which
they were fed almost exclusively on
carrots go to 75 ms. per head daily
for third period Of s days. AS an ad-
ditional ration to natural pasturage.
the carrots increased the yield of
milk, but when the cows were fed al.
most exclusively on carrots and de-
prived of pasturage, the yield was d.
minished.

ADVICE TO CORRESPONDENTS.
When writing for the papers
And gathering up the news
There are several trlte expressions
That you should always use.
For instance; Don't take trouble
A word in full to spell;
Most any old abbreviation
Will answer just as well.
Don't ever spell out Sunday"
Just simply write it Sun"
And when you talk of Monday"
Why, let 'er got at Mon"
And when you speak of Wednesday
There's little to be said;
Leave off superfuous letters
And write it only WED"
If some one briefly visits
Your town, don't make a slip
And say so; see you write it
He made flying trip"
For these are days of airships
And busy folks don't walk;
So flying trips are all the go,
And that's the way to talk.
Don't say someone passed Sunday
With anyone in town;
You'll write it that he "Sundayed"
If you'd do the thing up brown.
But why can't someone Monday"
Or Tuesday" just as we'll;
Or even "wednesday" Thursday"
Is what no one can tell.
Then there's another statement
That often comes in view
That's very much misleading,
And that is quite a few"
If it is quite" why that's enough;
If less than few, why say so;
If more than quite" few, why then
You'd better let it stay so.

by 397 out of 1923 Republicans who
voted. This is remarkable consider
ing he had no opposition and is an
indication that a good percentage Of
the Republicans are aware of his
shortcomings and propose to rebuke
him.
The News has no time at present to
go into the details of Mr.. Welker's
official history, but at later date par
ticulars sufficient to satisfy the most
exacting will be furnished so that the
voters will be able to do their duty in
telligently and thoroughly.
One of the bright ideas evolved
from the brains of this school examin-
er's crowd is to bring out a bosom
friend and past master in the art of
consummate political villiany as his
opponent on the Democratic ticket so
as to battle the indignation of the vot-
ers, but notice is here served that
chicanery of that kind will not be
permitted. Stool pigeons may work
in some cases but not this time. Mr..
Welker may prepare his cyclone cellar
for occupancy.

VICTORY CLAIMED
BY BOTH PARTIES
IN SUIT INVOLVING WIRELESS
TELEGRAPHY PATENTS.
Judge Townsend Hands Down Decis'
ion In Case of Marconi Co.
De Forrest.

New York, April 12.-Judge Town
send in the United States circuit court
today handed down an opinion con-
sisting of 80 typewriter pages in a
suit brought by the Marconi Wireless
Telegraph Co. against the De Forrest
Wireless Telegraph Co., for alleged in
fringement of patents.
Belts, Belts, Sheffield & Belts, rep
resented the complainant company
while the interests of the De Forrest
company were cared for by Edmund
Wetmore and Philip Farnsworth.
The opinion is much involved and
plaintiff, and defendant as well, claim
complete victory.
The Marconi company based its suit
upon six claims, two 'of which Judge
Townsend upholds and the other four
dismisses. Upon the two claims sus-
tanned, the court grants an injunction,
holding that so far as these two
claims are concerned the De Forrest
company was guilty of infringing the
patents of the plaintiff. 1t is said,
however, by the defendants that Sc far
as these two claims are concerned the
devices named in them have been
abandoned long since by the De For
rest company. Both of these claims
are in regard to the elevated struc-
ture for the handling of wireless mes
sages and the defendant is enjoined
frnY,, ttginu fhn o1lauaI m frip pipur
vices. The first claim is dismissed by
Judge Townsend in these words:
THE original patent contained Sc
claims, but claim one is new broad
claim which in terms cover every form
of imperfect contact in every possible
kind of system for producing signals
by means of Hertz oscillations. In
view OF the limitations imposed upon
the Marconi coherer by the disclos-
ures of Bravley, Popoff and Lodge,
such a general claim, made broader
than those of the original patent, for
which it seems to have been institut-
ed, should not be permitted when the
effect would be to enlarge the scope
of the original invention"
Mr.. Farnsworth said: "If this
claim had been allowed, the Marconi
company would have practically a
monopoly of the system of wireless
telegraphy. BY the dismissal of these
four claims, we have practically won
big victory"
Judge Townsend in concluding his
legnthy opinion says that for nine
years after the disclosures of Hertz in
1887, no practical or commercial sue
cess resulted and that Marconi was
the first TO describe and achieve def
mite Ineligible signals by these hert-
zian waves.
"Marconi," he says, who dared to
hoist his sail and explore the un-
known current, first disclosed the new
highway
Mr.. Belts, for the Marconi company,
said he was highly pleased with the
decision of Judge Townsend, since ele-
waited conductors are essential for
practical wireless telegraphy. at is
a great victory for us" said hlr. Belts.
I'VE are more than satisfied"

ACQUITTED OF MURDER,
NOW SEEKS PROTECTION

her two sons were convicted, appealed

When released from Jail she found

There is great demand for pure
food, yet the people go on eating all
sorts Of authorizations and microbes
In spite of the fact that the state is
paying out large sums of money
which seem to be devoted to detect
ing harmless coloring matter in oleo-
margarine, while the real serious
adulterations go unchallenged. Some
of these state departments are work
ed on the bluff theory, with big
salary attached.

The prospects for the passage of a
banking inspection bill by the next
legislature is very flattering. An
other case where such a law would
have done good is that of the Shilling
bank at Columbiana. When this pri-
vate bank failed it was thought to
owe but $4,000. Now the liabilities
are over $4,000. 1t is just such a
bank that is likely to protest against
state inspection.

Distances of Letters Carried at Con.
siderable Cost to Government.
1t is perhaps not generally realized
that the United States Postoffice per-
forms a service for the public un-
equalled in generosity by any other
similar government department in the
world. 1t conveys letter a greater
distance within its own borders for
a single rate of postage than does
the postal service of any other coun-
try. This fact, and others of equal
interest, is brought out in an article
on THE Postal Service" contributed
by Robert J. Wynne to Harper's
Weekly. In the early days of Alas
kan development, says Mr.. Wynne,
every letter carried to Nome cost the
government one dollar to secure its
delivery, though it only bore a two
or three cent stamp. "At the pres
ent time letter posted in Miami,
Florida, addressed to Blaine, Wash
ington State, will be carried the whole
distance of 3848 miles for two-cent
postage; in like manner letter mail
ed at Presque Island, Maine, will be
delivered to the addressee in San
Diego, California, a distance of 1878
miles. for the same rate of postage.
These long stretches of transporta-
tion, passing over many railroad sys-
TENS and steamship lines, involve an
expenditure far in excess of the
amount of postage received in COM
pensation."
