A COLLECTION
Of Quaint, Curious and
Queer Customers
Caught by the Cops.
CORRALLED FOR COURT

A bold thief entered the G. Il. Leh-
man popcorn wagon on the public
square some time Saturday night and
got away with about $25 which had
been left in the cash drawer. The
robbery was, the boldest piece of work
attempted so far, the wagon being
stationed in front Of Klafter's cigar
store under the glare of the electric
lights.
The thief evidently waited until the
officer patrolling that side of the
square was sent on a call and the
place was deserted. The money was
secured by removing a drawer which
forms part of the wagon floor and
then reaching into the cash drawer
just above. A young man who is
familiar with the wagon is suspected
but no evidence against him has yet
been secured.

Sam Baker and George Erwin came
to the city Saturday night ostensibly
to take in the many attractions for
which Canton is more or less motor
ious. AZ l0:30 when the night was
still young the pair landed at the
Wheeling depot At that time both
cut path that looked as though they
were setting the marks for a rail
fence and II was plainly evident that
they we're doing pretty well for
strangers and that the trip bid fair
to come up to specifications.
But right there the brotherly ties
were given hard wrench when both
Sam and George suggested different
attractions that should be taken in
next. Each insisted that heshad the
only official guide book but Just then
Patrolmen Rifle and Deedrick ap-.
peared around the corner and settled
the difference by appointing them
selves an escort committee and as
surfing the pair that they would book
all future engagements during the
remainder OF their stay here.

That is Just what you are
doing when you fail to get reg

body requires this unconscious
period for repair work; with

comes exhausted, and you are
tired, worn-out, nervous, ex-
citable; have headache, neu-
ralgia, indigestion, poor appc-
tite, or other ailments caused
by a lack of nerve force. Make
1t your business to sleep. If
you are restless, take
DIR. Miles Nervine; it soothes
and strengthens the nerves,
and brings sweet, refreshing,
iife-giying sleep, and gives the
organs power to work natur-
ally. Try it to-day.

When Patrolmen Rifle and Deedrlck
were patrolling their beats along
Shriyer's run at an early hour Sunday
morning their attention was attracted
by terrific noise coming from the
water about a block ahead. They

THREE VIEWS OF BASEBALL.
Something of the Status of the National
 Game In America.

From Charles D. Stewards "The United
 States of Baseball in the June Gen.
 tury.
 Shortly after that week of last Octo- Der when the seasons interests in baseball came to it's climax in the championship of the world (we call it that despite the fact that other nations do not play the game to speak of), the victorious White Sox paid a visit to small town in Wisconsin. From Octo- wife had been living on a baseball world where the newspapers had little space for matters of state, and so when the heroes of it all were coming to mere town, nothing else was talked of for days. When the town came to greet the players at the train, little boy who had been brought to see them was much disappointed. He piped up, "Why, they're only men, aren't theyi"
 This is faily expressive of the status of the national game in America (by which we always mean the United States) For reasons indicated, base- ball is a subject difficult to approach in the truly academic spirit The game might be considered from three sep srate standpoins-as a matter of in- vestment to the financier, and the poli- cies of it: as trade or profession, and the conditions under which the work man finds himself; and as a manly sport, as it affects the populace that supports it. But man can hardly 1,rino forth his facts from either on trance without causing happy throngs to exclaim for the first time, Why, they're only hired men, aren't they!"

The Sick Mans Burden.

From the Denver Post.
 The patient was muttering deliriously. The doctor leaned over the bed and the family stood anxiously around.
 'I tell you. doctor'' said the wife, there is something on his mind, some- thing terrible, some secret that he wishes to tell. I think if he were able to free his mind he would get some rest.'
 Do you think SOP" asked the doctor. Well. we will see. Bring me some cold water and cloth.'
 The doctor bathed the patients head and face, and soon a look of canity erept over his features, and he looked inquir- ingly into the faces of the group around him.
 NOW, my man." said the doctor 'what was 1t you wished to say; tell us."
 What troubles me is--' began the pa. tient. and stopped.
 "Yes, dear John, what is it that troubles you?" asked his wife.
 ''The only thing that everything me
 "The only thing that troubles me-" he replied, 'is-that if everything goes tc the dogs-what will become of the poor cats?"
