FIRST NIeHTERs
Pronounce the Bill for This Week
avery Good One.

A big crowd Of first nighters
was present at the two evening per-
formances at the Marion Family
theater last night and witnessed
the excellent bill presented by
Manager Vail, for this week.
The show is opened by the Ross
Sisters in high class vocal spe-
cialty. The act is a good one and
the performers were called for
many encores. Toxic Murati, the
celebrated Jap wire walker and foot
.iuggler. in number of amazing
stunts, drew large amount Of ap-
plause. The illustrated song "Clov-
er Blossoms by Miss Coleman,
was well received. A comedy sketch
entitled "The Shoplifter" by Cum
ningham and Smith, is laugh
provoker, and is probably one of
the best numbers on the program.
Another act deserving of especial
mention is Cate's Band, of four
musicians of ability, rendering a
refined program. The show is clos
ed with a good moving picture
number.

1t didn't require State Auditor
Guilbert long to get Into action In
the local common pleas court after
being given leave to enter the suit
OF the Marion National Bank against
the City of Marion, the Clinton
Foundry and Machine company and
oliver Heldman.
The state auditor, through attor-
ney general Wade H. Ellis, this
morning flied an answer and cross
petition in which he charges that
the whole contract for the erection
OF the sewage disposal works and
garbage crematory was illegal; that
the city is entitled to recover to the
full amount paid the Clinton
Foundry and Machine company and
that the contract was procured
through fraud.
The salient details Of the answer
are that in the first place, the city
council Issued and sold 100000 worth
o. bonds for the express purpose Of
constructing a sewage disposal plant
and purchasing site for the build
ing and for no other purpose. 1t is
alleged that the money realized from
the sale of these bonds was placed
In fund called the Sewage dispos-
al plant fund" and could be paid nut
for no other purpose than the con-
struction of a sewage disposal plant.
What the state auditor claims is that
George H. Pierson, whom the city
employed as consulting engineer,
drew up plans and urged their adop-
ton by the Board of Public Serv-
Ice. These plans provided for the
addition of garbage crematory, and
| II Is this addition that the state aud
itor claims renders the contract null
and void.
1t is alleged that while advising
The Marion daily mirror. (Marion, Ohio) 1892-1912, 1907-03-05

the city officials, Pierson, 30 drew
his plans that no other company
than the Clinton Fousdry and Ma
chine company could bid, and that
at that time Pierson was vice pres
ident, general manager and engineer
of this company. 1t is charged that
his plans were drawn In such a
manner as to expressly prohibit COM
petitive bidding, and enabling his
company to bid the entire amount
appropriated by council for the
plant. He placed bid Of $56, ,73S
which the service board and council
on his suggestion and advice as its
consulting engineer, accepted. And
then Pierson superintended the con-
lstruction of the plant, representing
that 1t was being done In accordance
with the plans and specifications on
lfile..
BY reason of this fact. 1t is claimed
the city paid $4,000 more than 1t
would have been compelled to for the
same work, had competitive bidding
been allowed.
This answering defendant also al
leges that the money appropriated
was wrongfully paid to the Clinton
Foundry and Machine company;
that the contract was procured
through fraud; that the city aud
itor never at any time certified that
the money for garbage crematory
was in fund for that purpose, and
that the entire amount should be re-
covered by the City of Marion.
The answer asks that the court
find that this fund may be found to
properly belong to the city, and
award 1t to the city.

sci and e. B. Durfee Of this city,

MEANINGS OF cALIgER.
Either the Diameter Of a Gun or II,
Length Divided by Diameter.

Either the Diameter of Gun or Its
Length Divided by Diameter.
There is surely no word in the no.
menclature of guns. big and little.
which has caused and is causing so
much confusion in the lay mind as the
word callber.
The confusion arises chiefly from the
use of the term in an adJectivai sense
to indicate length, as when we say a
so callber six inch gun.
The word caliber as applied to artil,
lery signifies essentially and at all
times the diameter Of the bore Of a
gun. A gun, then, of six inch callber
Is q gun whose bore is Just six Inches,
For convenience and because the
power of a gun when once its bore has
been decided upon depends so greatly
upon its length, artlllerlsts are in the
habit of defining the length Of the gun
In terms Of the callber.
The six inch rapid FIRE gun. as mount.
ed on the ships of the navy, Is a tribe
under twenty-five feet in length and
Is therefore known as a so callber gun.
In the case Of small arms the caliber
Is expressed in hundredths Of an inch.
as when we say % callber or 80 cali.
