MUSICAL RECITAL
At The N. P. Church Friday Evening
Was A Grand Success

One of the finest recitals ever given
in Mt. Vernon was enjoyed Friday
night by large and fashionable aud
ience. The seating capacity of the
M. p. church was taxed to its utmost
and many were Obliged to stand The
artists of the evening, Miss Helene
Pugh and Mr.. Claude Saner, presented
program that was heartily encored
after each number, Miss Pugh giving
Massachusetts beautiful valse in E as
an extra number after the Chopin
group, and Mr.. Saner graciously COM
plying with two extra songs. Miss
Pugh displays a beautiful tone. her
technique is equal to all demands and
she has fine sense of Interpretation.
That she commanded the closest at
tention was shown in the pianissimo
passages when the audience hardly
seemed to breathe. Mr.. Saner is one
of the brilliant young tenors of the
day of whom great things may be ex-
pected in the future. He has a voice
OF wonderful power, and great beauty
of tone and was equal to all the de-
mands made upon his gifts in the two
difficult arias, One of the pleasant
features of his singing is his distinct
enunciation. After his audience had
reluctantly departed an impromptu re-
ception was rendered the young ar
lists, many music students and others
remaining to offer congratulations.
The church was beautifully decorated
for the occasion, and it will be long
remembered as distinct social, ar
tistic and financial success.

wood. Mr.. Darling, In company with
his, son, was taking large load of
hay to barn from the field and the
wagon was being taken down the side
OF steep bank. The hay was loaded
on the wagon in an uneven manner
and as result, the entire load upset
throwing Mr. Darling to the ground in
very. forcible manner and the en-.
tire load of hay and the side of the
wagon alighted on top of him. The
unfortunate man was rendered un.
conscious and remained in that con-
dition for several hours. He was TAX.
en- from under the load by his son,
and as soon as possible was taken to
his home in Millwood, where DR.. E. l..
Porter of Danville was summoned in
attendance. After an examination, 1t
was found that the injured man sus-
tanned no broken bones, but that his
head and shoulders had been terribly
bruised and his eyes injured by the
heavy weight which had rested on his
head, the optic nerves probably being
injured. In addition to this, he was
badly bruised about the body and his
condition Is critical. On Saturday
another examination was made, but
it is impossible to ascertain the ex-
act extent of the injuries as it is not
known whether or not internal injur-
les exist.

His Fair Bride With A Violin
Bow

Akron, o., Oct. 15-With his violin
bow for lance, Carl Glover, a young
musician, stormed the palatial resi-
dence of w. B. Miller, wealthy rubber
manufacturer, and won for his bride
Miss Gladys Miller, twenty.
Glover, the leading of the orches-
ira in the Norka vaudeville theatre
and owner of music shop, was not
regarded with favor by Miller, the Sec
retary of the Diamond Rubber Co.,
as suitor for his daughters hand.
When the youthful sweethearts were
unable to overcome this attitude, they
met at other places than Miss Miller's
home.
Finally Glover faced the father. The
result was quiet wedding yesterday
in the First Congregational church.
The bride and groom were unattended
and only immediate relatives of each
were present.
81 do not believe in making a
splash" said the bride.
After honeymoon trip in the east,
they will live in fiat in, the Parkview
apartments.

RABID
Dog Bites Three People
Friday Afternoon
And Victims Go To PaSteur
Institute
Vim Mower, Wife And Son
We're Bitten

| A genuine mad dog scare, for which
there is considerable alarm, occurred
on North Sandusky street Friday af
ternoon when 1t was found that a
small dog had bitten a number of
persons in the family which owned it,
On Wednesday afternoon, small
black dog belonging to Mr.. William
Mower, who resides on North Sandus-
ky street, apparently became suddenly
| Ill and as the exact cause was not
known. Mr.. Mower attempted to ad-
minister dose of medicine. He fail
ed in this and received a. laceration
on the back of his hand from the
sharp point of one of the animals
teeth. Mrs. Mower attempted to ad-
minister the medicine after her hus-
band had failed and she met with the
same results and sustained a scratch
on her hand made by one of the dogs
teeth. The small son, unobserved by
his parents, attempted to pick the an
imal up in his arms and was severely
bitten about the hands and wrists. AT
ter the unsuccessful attempts to doc.
tor the dog, Mr. Mower called DR..
Limbaugh in attendance and after
careful examination of the animal,
Dr.Limbaugh pronounced it a gen.
uine case of rabies in it's advanc-
ed form. This was very unwel-
come news to those who had sus-
tanned decorations and bites from the
animals teeth as in each case guam
tity of the saliva from the animals
mouth had been deposited in the bites
at the time when they were made. DR..
G. K. Conard was called to make an
examination and 1t was found that
the people were really in a very dan
gerous position and quick action would
be necessary in order to check the
disease before it would have the prop
er amount of time to develop. Each
one of the family who sustained bites
from the rabid animal left Saturday
for Chicago, where they will enter the
Pastenr institution for treatment.
1t is not known whether or not, the
dog had bitten any other animals in
the neighborhood before the disease
was discovered, but it is thought not
as the queer actions of the animal had
not been apparent for only short
time before the discovery was made
and it had been either tied or kept in
the house most of the time before.
No other cases have been reported in
the city.

Deafness Cannot be Cured


by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear,
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that Is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inlamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when 1t is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless the inflamma-
tion can be taken out and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an in.
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

EARNEST
Plea For Increased Member.

600 Members Wanted For
Local Association
And Must Be Secured In
Seven Days
lBy the Secretaryl

To the father contemplating the
physical expression and the local en-
vironment of his boy, to the boy and the
young man needing a physical express
sion and social environment, that is
wholesome and strengthening, to the
churches In need of the best all
around leadership and to the commun.
ity and state needing sturdy and noble
manhood is the cali for cooperation
along membership lines by the Young
Mems Christian Association not of
very great concern and interest. Since
community's greatest asset is her
young men, should not the communi-
tvs and states greatest concern be
as to where and how her young men
are trained and spend the hours when
not under the home Influences Mr..
Leonard, superintendent of the Mans
field reformatory, said that seven
eighths of what boy is is due to in
fuence outside the home church and
school. 1t is urged that saloons
raw material is young men and her
finished product wasted life, that q
Y. M. G. A. as raw material also are
young men, but that the finished pro-
duct in this case is noble manhood.
Thus is not the appeal for co-opera-
tion on the part of all parents-the'
entire, community interested in the
very best development of the city and
every young man and boy in the coun-
ty desiring the greatest efficiency,
vital and personal one?. With splen-
did association, backed up by the en-
thusiastic endorsement of all the pas
tors, the leading business and profess
sional men, heads of all the shops, fac
tories and schools, newspapers and all
public institutions and with the call
for strong,young men of the greatest
ever in history, should there not be
concentration Of effort and attention
toward the membership campaign of
the Y. M. c. A. for the next seven
days that will identify at least the
900 young men and boys with the

PRESIDENT TAFTs TIME OF TRIAL

The second year of a new Presi-
Dental administration is usually its
worst. Lincoln found this to be true.
He faced serious set backs in 1862, and
the congressional elections of that
year were marked by many reverses
for the Republican party. Later, as
his policies developed. he regained
strength. The people grew to under
stand him. and he was reelected in
1864
President Taft is going through an
experience of Misrepresentation, mis-
understanding and embarrassment
we'll nigh as perplexing and disearten.
ing as that which wore upon the
great heart Of Lincoln, with the i'm
portant difference, however, that this
in an era of peace, while Lincoln s
burden was immensely augmented by
the circumstance that the country was
in the throes of civil war. Lincoln
was a better practical politician than
Taft-in fact Taft, while judicial and
conscientious and statesmanlike, is no
politician at all. On the other hand,
the color of lincoln mind. in spite
of his humor, was essentially sad,
while Taft is an optimist and his
characteristic mood is cheerful. Taft
will not shrink from responsibility
as he sees it, for he is no more a
weathercock or empiric than Lincoln
was. He stands by his views of duty,
and he will stand by them, whatever
befalls. His optimism will help him
to bear up under adversely. confident
