Great rivalry promises to develop In
the sale of dolls, one made by Mrs.
Felix Isman, wife of the Philadel-

that her doll shall not bring less

determined that her handwork shall

The home for destitute crippled

is unique In that it makes specially
of taking up tn cases of apparently

The Cincinnati Post of July 16,

says:
A drop of blood falling upon a
womsn's hand, was the clue that
led to the finding of the body OF.
George j. Chalmers, "a, Sunday
night,
Chalmers lived at Ohillicothe,
Ohio. Sunday he visited his par.
ents in West Oovington. At $50
he boarded a train at the o. & o.
depot to return home just after
the train had passed over the
bridge, a party of women walked
underneath, on SCOTT st. One Of
them felt something strike her
hand, 1t was drop of blood.
She notified firemen at an en-
CINE house nearby. The men
searched the bridge, and just over
the street found the body of Ohal-
mers.
He had evidently fallen from the
platform of one Of the cara. His
skull was fractured. Chalmers
was an iron worker.
We have no farther particulars,
but think the unfortunate man
was son-in law of George Heck.

Newark, Ohio. If this lie true, we
extend our sympathy to the be-
reAved ones.
