History Needs Recasting

Professor Hempfs discovery brings
everything into harmony. with what is
known Of the history of the ancient
world There is plenty of evidence
that Etruscans once lived on the islands
between Greece and Asia Minor, as we'll
as on the mainland not far from Troy.
Now that we know that their language
is closely related to Latin, the old ira
dition that after the fall of Troy the
Trojans migrated to Italy, turns out to
be an echo of the real history of the
Latin -Etruscan race When the in
scriptions are read considerable new
light on this subject is expected. But
not only will the early history of Italy
need recasting; the fact that Etruscan
is so closely related TO Latin throws a
great flood Of light upon the many dis
puted facts of Latin grammar and ety.
molOgy.
ITO say that this new knowledge will
cause the rewriting of most books on
Latin and general Indo- European phi

REALLY HOT TODAY.
The Mercury Mounts to Ninety-four
Degrees.

All summer resort stories as far as
this locality is concerned are of for
the time being, for the temperature
reached "a Friday and the atmosphere
was so laden with humidity that for. all
purposes and intents the record tenn
perature reading of the season was
reached and the temperature readings
today are but little if any less. The
temperature was above 80 in nearly
every part of the state Friday with
dition today. -
There is a good stiff ~--~-o blowing
from the southwest today at the rate
of 15 miles an hour and this has done
much to make the temperatures of the
day bearable. The forecast indicates
partly cloudy weather tonight and
Sunday which means that the tenn
peratures in all probabilities will be
about the same as those Of today. The
following were the temperatures since

SQUAD
MAKES REPORT
OF EXPENSE
Salvation Army Tell What Was
Done With Money Donated.
Public Has Been Liberal
Many New Recruits.

Feeling that tie public Is not only
interested but that it is due from the
Salvation Army, Capt. Hunt of that or
ganization has prepared statement
showing how the money that was
contributed to provide Christmas
for the poor was spent. In this con-
nection 1t may be noted that Capt.
Hunt says the local squad is very APP
preciative of the hberality of the pub
&c toward their organization.
For the Christmas dinner and the
Christmas tree which the Army plan
ned to give, a total of 5000 was con-
tributed. OF this amount no less
than SS7 was spent for shoes for school
children, in order that they might
remain in school. This amount pur-
chased 65 pairs, the merchants of the
city being very liberal in the dis
counts which they allowed. Besides
buying the shoes and providing Christ
mas dinner and a Christmas tree for
men, women and children, there is
still left in the treasury a balance OF
s35, most of which will be spent for
SHOES.
Just before and during the Christ
mas holidays the Army gave away 800
garments, and so liberal were the do
nations that they still have on hand
a considerable number to provide for
others. In addition to the Christmas
dinners which were sent out to yari-
Gus deserving families of the city,
the Army Christmas tree was attend
ed by over 200 children, each of whom
received a box of candy, sack of
nuts, an orange, an apple and toy
OF some kind. In addition to this a
Christmas dinner for children only
was given which was attended by
ninety-five of the little fellows.
Notwithstanding that the Army has
had headquarters in the city for only
a short time, their number has very
largely increased since their arrival,
| their being at present twelve sol
diers" and five recruits" They have
learned the city, have their work sys-
tematized, and there are very few
cases Of real want that can occur and
escape their observation.

SEERESS
Might Delve Into Past
and Future But Didn't
Locate Strausser's
Money
SALOONIST LOSES $500

Three hundred dollars in cash was
secured by some person who robbed
desk in the saloon of Lawrence
Strausser, corner Of Cherry and Doug
lass streets, sometime Sunday or Sun
day evening, the proprietor not being
sure at what time the robbery was
committed.
Strausser operates boarding place
in connection with his saloon and res
taurant and it has been his custom to
keep considerable money in one of the
drawers of his desk. He did not re-
port his loss Immediately to the police
after he made the discovery that he
was robbed, but took another means
of trying to ascertain who did the job
He sought fortune teller or seeress,
who told him that the robbery had
been committed by man who had
been In his place of business Sunday,
giving description of the man. The
fortune teller also told Strausser that
the man who took his roll Of green
backs had first hidden them under n
bridge, but later took them to his
home and put his ill-gotten gains in
his bed-tick.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1908-05-12

So firm was his belief in what had
been told him concerning the robbery
that he at once suspected a man who
was in the place and whose descrip-
ton tailed with the description given
to him by the person telling the past,
present and future" that he resolved
to get out search warrant for the
home Of Edward Klotz, better known
as "Grinny." Detective Ryan went
through every nook and corner in the
Klotz home, but failed to find any
thing that resembled money. He
piled "Grinny" with questions, but
nothing was gained from the ques-
tions, except that the man had been
in the place during the day. Klotz
was not placed under arrest, as there
was no evidence outside of that given
by the fortune teller that he commit
ted the robbery.
The officers of the police depart
ment do not take much stock in the
story that "Grinny" committed the
robbery, but suspect other parties,
who knew exactly where the money
was kept at all times. These parties

Senator Patterson's minority report
questions the legality of the work Of
the committee and calls the auditor
Of state to scrutinize it's bills careful
ly before drawing warrants upon the
treasurer for payment. Patterson
charges that Lothman and STANDARD,
the first expert accountants employed
discharged because they failed to find
a shortage in the treasury. 1t is fur
ther charged that for long time Sem
ator Howe refused to show Patterson
the report Of these experts.
Patterson in his minority report,
admits irregularities in the treasur-
ers office. He expresses the opinion
that average cash balances in the
vault Of S348,O00 are not excessive. He
says the depository act should be re-
drafted, If it is not too late. He at
tributes most of the trouble in the
treasury to the large surplus, saying
that it is a serious question if the
state has the right TO collect surplus
fund of millions. He says that it is
unweldy, that the taxes should be SO
adjusted that there would be no sur
plus, which is always a temptation to
spend public money uselessly, if not in
downright jobbery.
Patterson refers to the investigation
of the fire marshals Office as a verbal
slugging match between Creamer, the
| incumbent, and Hy Davis, the former
Republican marshal. He says that the
department costs the people of Ohio
100000 year, and ought to be abol-
! ished.
