staring at him and then accompanied
by his secretary, R. w. Ashcroft
walked out the front door OF the hotel
into Dover street.
The sidewalks were thronged with
shop girls on their way to work, who
stopped short and gazed in astonish-
ment at the American humorist as he
made his way towards bath club
nearly opposite the hotel.
After his bath Twain returned to his
hotel in his three piece costume and
had the pleasure Of making a lot more
people open their eyes wide.
The manager OF the hotel was aghast
as he saw Twain enter the hotel, but
didn't make a fuss. His feeling was
that a great man like Twain must be
allowed to do as he pleases. Twain
himself protested wonder at the ex-
citement he had caused. I simply
wanted to take e. BATH" he said, and
did the game thing I'd often done at
the seaside. London Is sort Of a
seaside town, isn't it?"

laugh comes in. While coming up
from the city the other morning Mr..
Rockefeller was enjoying spin along
the state road near Elnlsford at the
rate of thirty miles an hour, when he
was held up by Constable Bunsen-
by stretching a rope across the road.
AS Mr.. Rockefeller poked lis head out
of the car door Bunsenmeyer said:

Mr.. Rockefeller went to the phone,

Congressman Ashbrook of the Sew
enteenth Ohio district, who was here
this week, is of decided interest Mi.
Ashbrooll declares the next senator
from Onto is very likely to be Judge
Judson Harmon, who has been men
toned on several occasions as possible
nominee for president of the democrat
ic national convention next year. The
congressman believes the democrats
will carry the state. and will have a
majority in the legislature next year.
He bases his predictions on the fact
that the Foraker Taft squabhle will so
disrupt the party that the republican
majority will be overcome.
There is a growing tendency to dec
crate men in the public service with
university degrees. Debarred by the
constitution from the conference OF
decorations Of any kind, the govern
ment has no means of recognizing pub
licly the useful careers of public serv-
ants, or of showing its appreciation IN
any material way of the acts of those
from foreign governments who have
helped to uplift the race. In this
quandary the American universities
have stepped in. Last week the Uni
versity of Chicago conferred an hon
orary degree upon the British ambas-
sador, and this week Fordham uni
versity conferred upon the Hon Her.
bert G. Squiers, United States min
lister to Panama, the honorary degree
of LII D. The degree is given in ap-
probation of Minister Squiers long
and useful career in the service OF the
country. The diplomat made a not
able record in Pekin during the Boxer
troubles. when he was chief of STAFF
for Sir Claude Macdonald and did
splendid service in preserving from
massacre the inhabitants of the pc
leaquered legations. For his work ~
this connection he was given the
thanks of the British government. Lat
err he made brilliant record as United
States minister to Cuba. post ne
held from May. 1902. to November,
1905, when he resigned.
There is trouble ahead for a num-
Der of railroads south of the Ohio and
east OF the Mississippi. Attorney Gen
eral Bonaparte now has under consid-
GRAFTON q case involving nearly all OF
the roads in that territory, and on his
decision depends whether or not the
case will be prosecuted in the courts.
The charge is that these roads. all OF
which are enrolled In the Southeastern
Mississippi Valley association and the
Southeastern Freight association. IS to
the effect that they have been oper-
ating under an agreement to raise
freight rates on shipments of yellow
pine lumber from the south to terri
tory in the north, The case was
fought out before the interstate com
merce commission, and few days
ago the supreme court to which the
roads appealed. confirmed the decision
Of the commission that the rates
against which the shippers complained
were illegal and unreasonable. II
was proved during the hearing that
the roads were guilty of conspiracy
and the fact that this has been firmly
established makes the case OF the gov
eminent very strong one.

A GENERAL discussion by the
executive committee at the com.
mercial club this week brought
out the fact that there is a feeling
that Stark county roads should
receive more attention. 1t is a
very easy matter to get and keep
good roads in this country if the
matter is only gone about in the
right way. One plan advanced
was the general use of a grading
machine, steam power to be used
in the operation of the same. AS
an experiment, if the county was
not willing to try it, the citizens
of Dickinson could we'll afford to
contribute to a fund for defraying
the necessary expense of properly
grading a few miles of road. It
is high time that permanent road
work was commenced in all parts
OF the county. The road poll tax
alone if properly handled would
be a great help along these lines.
In the past, roadmasters have had
no common plan OF operation and
the work in some districts has
been of almost no value to the
county.
