INSANE MAN
Who Scattered His Money About ~

Cleveland, Dec. 25.-After scatter
ing a thousand dollars about the fields

West View man who chased his fam

well pleased with the entertainment.
Miss Russell and her trained leopards
we're the great drawing card and It Is
a great act that she has. The beasts
are far from tame and she takes
risks with the ferocious beasts that
show her to be a woman of remark
able nerve. They do not always want
TO obey her but she has them well In
hand or knows how TO coptrol them
but even then she sometimes receives
bad scratches from the unruly beasts.
The four other acts are all good and
the entire program is one that enter

ALABAMA REPUBLICANS
Are Split and II Is Now a Question Of
What Candidate VIII Get the
State Delegation.

Montgomery Ala, Dec. .2b.-The Re-
publicans of Alabama seem to be very
split over what man should receive
the vote of this state In the national
convention. AS long as Rooseveit
was supposed to be in the race they
were for Roosevelt, but the minute
he announced lie did not intend to run
there was disorder.
At this time II is doubtful which one
of the candidates will get the vote OF
Alabama. Charles II. Scott, now Re-
publican committeeman, Is out and
out for Taft, j. o. Thompson, chair
man OF the state executive committee
is on the fence, that is, he Ii not for
Taft These two men have been recog-
nlzed as the Republican leaders in
Alabama and have had charge OF the
distributing Of the Offices. Now that
there Is split there Is no telling
what may happen.

TWO WOMEN
Charge Each Other With
TriflingWith Husbands
Affections
FURIOUS STREET FIGHT

"You stole my husband and now
you I'll choke you to death" With
these words Mrs. Charles Wallace OF
Uniontown, sprang at Mrs. Elizabeth
purkhelmer, and female fight in all
its splendor was on for sure, yester-
day afternoon at $3.50 o'clock. For
a ring the women chose the crowded
part OF East Tuscarawas street begin
ming at the square and extending TO
Piedmont street. Their words ana
shrieks drew the attention OF the
persons on the street and soon a
crowd OF about a thousand was col
lected about the belligerents.
Officer Pat Rifle, who was doing
duty on the square at the time,
reached the women at the Mar-Lew
and placed them under arrest. They
were taken to the police station with
the crowd following. All the way
they fought battle OF words, and
even after they were locked up they
wanted 10 get at each other and
settle their differences. They i'm
plored Chief Smith to let them out In
the corridor so they could fight II out.
They quarrefed bitterly and the
cause seems to have been man.
The story as told by the women
is that they had domestic troubles
with their spouses, and each accused
the other OF having been the cause Of
the trouble. Mrs. Wallace seems TO
be the aggresoor in the matter. She
accused Mrs. Burkheimer OF taking
her husband from her and living with
him at Akron. The Wallaces have
not lived together for some time, and
Mrs. Burkheimer is said to have been
keeping house for Wallace at Akron.
Mrs. Burkheimer was formerly Mrs.
Charles Rohn, bue recently she was
divorced from her husband. She
charges the Wallace woman with liv-
ing with Rohn at Navarro. The air
was indigo with the women's words
and the threats they made against
each other.
The Burkheimer woman stated that
she and her sister were spending the
day in Canton, and were going down
East Tuscarawas street when the
Wallace woman attacked her. Wal
lace had also come TO Canton for the
day, and was IN Market street |
store when the AFFAIR occurred, but
was soon apprised of the trouble.
Rohn was also in the city, and late
In the afternoon put up $40 for the
appearance of Mrs. Wallace this
morning. The Burkheimer woman
in the city prison all night.
The trial will be held in mayors
court this morning.

THE GAME LAWS
Deputies Are Circulating PetitIons 10
Tax shotgdns Five Dollars
Annually.

A petition, recommending that u
lcense OF So annually be placed on sho.
guns, has been circulated among the
sportsmen for their signatures. A
number signed II.
The petition was In charge Of Fred
Oates, deputy game warden, and II Ia
stated that a similar petition is being
circulated in every county In the state.
The petitions will be presented to the
legislature at the coming session.
The petition provides for an amend
ment to the present game laws. The
game wardens believe that, IL the
same is adopted, It will not be neces.
sary to pass a prohibitive law for
three or five years. The money deriv-
cd from the licensing the shot guns 10
to be placed in a fund to pay the game
wardens a salary for their services.
The game wardens claim, what Is
true, when they say, there is no in
ducement under the present law for
them TO even attempt to protect the
game. The money they get comes
from fees on arrests made. II they
do not capture and convict any VIC.
lators of the law, then they receive
no pay. In many countiessin the state
they do not know that there are any
game laws on the statute books.
The licensing OF the shot guns is no
new move. Some years ago the Ohio
Traper Shooters league adopted sev.
eral amendments to the game laws
and sent a committee over TO Comm-
bus TO confer with the game commits
sion. The rural members vigorously
objected to the proposed changes,
that the city sportsmen were
trying another scheme to get some ad-
vantage of the farmers.
Later the same amendments found
their way to the State Grange and
most Of them were adopted by that
body and recommended to the game
They we're included in
the new game laws passed. The IL
Of shotguns was omitted.
The game wardens are hopeful that
heir petition will receive favorable &C.
ton, but they may be disappointed.
The supreme court has held that II
sense In this state Is invalid. Even,
II termed only tax. II would proba.

oreme court.
