REVOLVER TESTS
BY HAMS BROTHER

New York, Dec. 20.-Major John
Hams made an informal test this aft
ernoon of a revolver with which his
brother shot Annfs. Test was for ben
eft of the defense of Thornton. Dem
onstrated a revolver of the type used
by the captain could be fired to the
last of its seven shots in a very few
seconds. Trigger had to be pulled for
each shot. This disproved the popu-
lar belief that the gun the captain
used was one that kept on firing after
the trigger was pressed once. The
major said There is a foreign gun
that does that way but army men don't
like it. This gun must have the tri-
ger pulled every time" Was asked,
Won't that make it bad for your
brother" Lawyer Young, of defense,
answered, Captain who used this au-
tomato is not on trial at present. Gun
that Thornton carried was an old
fashioned one. We want to show that
the captain fired all seven shots in
fewer seconds than any witness so far
called for prosecution will admit.
Things they said happened between
the first and last shot could not pos
sibly have happened in that time"
Test made at Schuetzen Park, Long
Island.

HOW DEAF AND DUMB
REFEREE COUNTED TEN.

Two deaf and dumb men were
fighting, and the referee was also
minus his voice and hearing. He had
no trouble in filling that important
position as long as the men remained
on their feet. but when one of the
mutes was knocked down and the
referee was called upon to toll off
the count of ten, there were indica-
tions of fiZzle in the ring. But the
unexpected happened.
The referee was right up to date
and on to his job He did not try to
make motions with his hands and ut
ter unintelligible sounds. He prompt
ly got busy with his feet and start
ed to kick the fallen gladiator. One
foot and then the other the versatile
ring official dug into the ribs of the
man on the floor. and by the time he
had "hoofed OFF, six seconds of the
count, the unfortunate victim was
about ready to be carried to a bed.
1t was then that the referee changed
his tactics.
Instead of using his feet he chang
ed to his hands, and delivered the re-
naming four seconds in most artistic
fashion, this being accomplished by
the referee showing his clenched fist
up against the nose of the defeated
man in a manner which, to the crowd.
appeared somewhat threatening, but
the count went just the same, and
one of the most unusual knock-outs
In the history of the ring was re-
corded.

inefficient private secretaries are

many of these important ciyilities.
No secretary man or woman, should

enough to keep informed of every
thing the mistress OF the White

At the. first interview of each day be-

his family with current affairs. A

be quickly executed by competent
person, and the days work is done
without the stupendous effort on the
part of anyone interested. There are
sore spots in the hearts of many peo-

careless secretaries, who are respon-
sible for seeming discourtesies from
the White House.

DEATHS AND FUN ERALS
MRS. MARGARET BALLARD.


After having lived in Canton for
over, a half century. Mrs. Margaret
Ballard, died Saturday night at l0:30
O'Clock at her home, corner of Mar
ket and Navarro streets, where she
had lived all these years. Mrs. Bal
lard's death was due 10 the infirnii-
ties of old age, she being 81 years of
age when the call came. The deceased
was the widow of Asa w. Ballard,
who died at their home in 1887. Mrs.
Ballard came to this city In the year
1858, her husband being connected
with the old World Mower and Reap
er works, then occupying what is now
known as the McLain plant They
came to Canton from Pittsburg, where
she was born. Her old home was near
the site of the present Frick building
and she was intimately acquainted
with many of the men who made
Pittsburg famous. Until only a few
days before death carried her away
the mind of Mrs. Ballard was still
clear and she frequently talked of
things that happened in Canton fifty
years ago. Two sons, Theodore Bal
lard, at whose home she lived, and
DR.. Luther Ballard, of Alliance, sur
vive. The funeral will take place from
the Ballard home at 10 o'clock Tues
day morning.

DEMENTED Man FOUND
FLOUNDER|NG IN RIVER
At Warrington and Escapes From Rescuers While
His Clothes Were Drying-No Trace Of Him
Found-Either has Perished or Made Good His
Escape.

yard. There they discarded him of
his wet garents and while these were
drying, he was induced to lie down.
He was in no way violent, and after
he became warmed, he told his rescu-
ers, during a rational interval that
he was from Niles, Ohio, but was un-
able to give his name.
In the meantime the Massillon po-
lice were called up, and told of the
incident. AS the case was wholly out
of the bounds of their jurisdiction
they were unable to render any as
sistance, and they instructed the
brickyard workmen to hold the man
until morning. AS the man appeared
to have no tendency to be violent, he
was not carefully watched. Suddenly,
attired only in his undergarments, he
wrenched himself free from his cap
tors, and bolted for the river again.
According to Constable hamburger,
his intention in jumping into the
river upon this OCCASION, was purely
suicidal He was again rescued from
the water, but Immediately tearing
himself free from the workmen, he
fitted away into the darkness. That
was the last the brickyard men saw
of him.
At daylight Constable hamburger
appeared upon the scene, and conduct
ed thorough search of the vicinity,
in an attempt TO take the insane man
into custody. At one farm house it
was learned that he had put in an ap
pearance early in the morning, but
the women occupants of the house,
alarmed at the awful appearance of
the man, gave vent to shrieking, that
him away again. Since that
time no one had seen him.
The supposition is that he has eth
er perished from exposure and exhaus-
ton, or that he has fed to other
parts. Constable hamburger, in
speaking of the affair, Sunday after
noon, said: II have secured the
country carefully, in the parts where
he has been seen. but was unable to
find him. All of the farmers in that
are on the lookout for him
and l am hoping to hear that he has
been located. l fear that if he is
not soon apprehended, he will die
of exposure"

Emaciated, clad only in his under
wear and mentally deranged, a man,
whose personal appearance is almost
terrifying, is roaming aimlessly about
the country between Navarro and Mas
sillon in the vicinity of the village
of Warrington. Captured at midnight
Saturday night, while fioundering
about in the icy water of the Tusca-
was river, he was held for a short
time by workmen at the Warrington
brickyard, but managed to make his
escape shortly afterwards. Again,
early Sunday morning, he made his
appearance at farmhouse of that vi
cinity, but the screams of the fright
ened occupants of the house, drove
him away again. Constable Bamburg-
er, of Massillon, together with sew
eral farmers of that vicinity, made a
thorough search of the countryside
for the demented man, but up to Sun
day evening, their efforts had been
fruitless. It is feared that he has
perished from cold and exposure.
1t was about midnight, Saturday
night, that the few night employees

bined to substantiate the belief that
some water spirit was at his gambol
in the stream, or that the "Old Man

appearance. Summoning their cour-
age, the brickyard workmen hurried
to the river.
In the grim shadows about the riy-
er, they perceived a man, half wad-
ing, and swimming, aimlessly about in
the water With a little persuasion,
they managed to get him to come out
upon the bank of bis own free will.
He seemed very shy, and was half
afraid to come near the men. He was
thoroughly chilled with the cold, too
much so to talk.

SUCCESS AND VICTORY
CAN De ATTAINED BY
AN INDOMITABLE WILL

An audience of 300 men, by far the
largest of the season, heard Rev. Dan
iel Polling, of Columbus, lecture upon
THE Spirit of Victory" at the Sunday
afternoon mems mass meeting at the
Y. NJ. c. A.
The speaker conveyed the idea to
the audience that the two word, sue
cess" and victory" are SYNONYMOUS,
and that in business or in religion
they can be attained by an indomit-
able will The devotion of ones self,
he said, to any pursuit or occupation,
was essential to the accomplishment
of victory. He cited instance, tuber-
o'llosis patients, who being told they
were doomed, lived on and were cured
because of their remarkable will
power.

TO CHANGE INTO FINER
BEINGS AFTER DEATH
Prof. F. E. Bell Confident the Fathers hand will
Not forget Us in the Autumn of our Life.

At the meeting of the Mental Re
search society, in the Red Mems hall
last night, Prof. F. E. Bell lectured
upon the subject, after Death,
What?" The meeting was marked by
the best attendance since the founda-
ton of the society.
The lecture might have been con-
sidered reply to the theories of ath-
eism. He protested against their the
ory that death means the annihilation
of the soul, and against their denial
Of the existence of God. The ques-
ton, After Death, What?" he ex-
planned by expounding the doctrine,
that death means simply the discard
ing Of the material body and the ex-
istence OF only the spiritual self
He said; THE babe in its infancy
cannot see the beauty of the world;
neither can we see the beauty OF the
other world until we are born TO II.
Then the invisible becomes the visible.
The atheist has said, how can we
prove that the spirit as well as the
body does not die; that when the
heart ceases to beat, 1t Is because life
OF spirit which controls, has died like
a workout battery, causing the ma

work can only last for time. The
hand of God places the spirit in my
body and the creations Of God lass
for All time.
