The Ohio Way.

In Jefferson township, in
the great State Of Ohio, it is
said that every voter has beer
disfranchised and indicted
for selling his vote. The vot
ers were bought for.$l. 90 uL
and included even the preach
ers. This wholesale vote buy
ing took place in Adams couu
ty, carried by the Republican
NOMINEES for governor. No
doubt this is the way that
Ohio has been going Republi-
can for years, and the probe
that has now been started
should be made deep and
wide. East Carroll Banner

The Speaking Clock.

there is nothing outwardly
rem arkable, according to Das
Echo, in the appearance Of
the ingeniously constructed
timepiece known as the ''time
stating clock. But every
quarter Of an hour an agree
able voice issues from it, an
nouncing the correct time, as
twelve O'clock. twelve fifteen,
twelve thirty etc.
The works of the clock act
uate q stout belt, which runs
over a roll connected with a
sounding box.
Upon this belt, or rather
film, the hours, which have
been recorded by a phono-
graph, are impressed by gal
vanization on a copper plate.
The mechanism which
moves the hands is connect
ed with speaking device, and
this with a funnel which re-
enforces the sound and pro-
jects it outward through a
finely grated opening attach
ed to the narrow side Of the
clock.
At night a touch on lever
reduces the clock to silence.
But if one wakes and wishes
to know the hour without
stricking a light an easily
found button is pressed and
the clock Immediately states
the time.

its elasticity it may be wound |

Married.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.

A wedding that brought surprise to
many Edgerton friends took place at
St. Joseph's parsonage at $50 o'clock
Saturday evening, when Miss Jessie A.
Morrissey and Rush Wentworth, both
of this city, were united in marriage,
Rev. J. E. Harlin officiating. The mar
riage license and special permit were
obtained the same day. Immediately
after the ceremony the couple were
taken to GAINESVILLE across the country
from whence they took the train for
Winona, Mimi, on a honeymoon trip
of ten days, after which they will re-
turn and make Edgerton their home.
Both bride and groom are well known
Edgerton young people, and highly re-
spected. The bride is the youngest
daughter of w. H. Morrissey, prom
inent business man of this city, while
the groom is the only son of Ward
Wentworth, leaf dealer and real estate
agent, also of this city. Congratula-
tons and best wishes await the return
of the bride and groom to their home.

Tobacco Notes

H. T. Sweeney is still confined to his
home with liver trouble that does not
yield readily to treatment.
Geo. G. Gary left Madison Tuesday,
taking his family for long automobile
trip to st. Paul and Minneapolis.
H. S. McGiffin, in charge of the Mad

was in town Wednesday with a brand
new Hudson auto with which he is in
specting the growing crop in this sec
ton. He expects to remove to Sparta
next month when his headquarters will
be transferred to that point
From the New York tobacco journals
we learn that Louis w. Coon, who con-
ducts chain of cigar stores in that
city, has filed petition in bankruptcy
with liabilities of $4,000 and assets
So, 900. Mr.. Coon was born and reared
in Albion and is we'll known to many of
our readers. About Is years ago he
opened cigar store at 800 Broadway,
N. Y, and from the first conducted a
very profitable business. Later two
other stores were started at Whitehall
street and lower Broadway, but re-
Gently the high rents, cut prices and
competition of the chain stores made
the business a losing venture.

Obituary.

Earl Adam Baum, who resides at
1900 Sharon street, GAINESVILLE, died sud-
denly Thursday afternoon about two
O'Clock. With his son Mark, Mr.. Baum
had been working on his farm in the
country, and after dinner decided to
drive back to the city. Having hitched
up the horse he took his place in the
carriage, but just as he started to drive
out of the yard his heart failed and he
expired while the horse was moving
toward the front gate. His son Mark
was standing at the gate ready to close
it after his father had driven through,
when he noticed that the elder Mr..
Baum had lost his hat and that his
head had fallen to one side. He was
dead before his son could reach him.
His sudden death will come as a
shock to his many friends in GAINESVILLE
and in the country. He was born in
New York state so years ago and upon
coming to GAINESVILLE about 20 years ago
he engaged in the house moving bust
ness. He has followed this occupation
in connection with his farm work up to
the present time Besides his wife he
is survived by his son Mark. Before
moving to Janesoille the family were
for some years residents of Edgerton.

GOllmar Brothers Circus Enlarged

1t is understood that the Gollmar
Brothers Greatest of American Shows
this year have undergone general
renovation in each and every one of
the many departments, and from the
monster exhibition tents to the cook
tent everything is new, clean and up
to-date, the only thing that has been
retained being the trade mark and
name Goldman Brothers,, which
means everything frst-class. Long
trains of cars transport these immense
shows entour this season, and the big
gest and best combination of circus and
menagerie attractions are presented, to
say nothing of the numerous auxiliary
novelties offered in conjunction with
this immense circus. The GOllmar
Brothers circus will be seen in this city
Tuesday. July Is.

The Bogart DESTROYED by Fire.

The Bogart, Mrs. Pauline Jacobus'
resort, located just beyond the north
limits of the city in Albion, took fire
and was totally destroyed Wednesday
forenoon. The alarm was telephoned
in and the fire apparatus gotten out
quickly but when the location of the
fire was discovered and being no water
supply in reach, only the hook and lad
der truck and firemen went to the
scene. The blaze started in the roof,
either from the chimney or sparks from
the kitchen range, and when discovered
was quite we'll under way. Neighbors
were soon at hand, but when help
reached there from town the entire
roof was a mass of flames and nothing
Nearly all the household effects in the
lower part of the house were removed,
but nothing in the chambers could be
reached Fortunately the wind was
from direction that carried the burn
ing embers away from the other build
ings on the place, for everything was
as dry as finder and nothing could pre-
vent clean sweep of the adjacent
property. The building was soon con-
sumed and the brick walls crumbled in.
The property loss will probably exceed
1900 which is partly covered by an in
surarce of $4,000 on the buildings and
81, 500 on household effects in the
Albion Mutual Fire Insurance Co.
The fire has removed one of the land
marks of this locality, for the property
was originally part of the Bardeen
homestead erected about As years ago
and an imposing farm residence. Some
Is years ago Mrs. Jacobus purchased
the ten-acre plot with the home and
converted it into cozy resort known
as ''The Bogart." Here she conducted
her Pauline Pottery Works and re-
sort for Chicago people largely during
the vacation months. The loss will
fall quite heavily on this estimable
woman as she had under negotiation
the sale of the property to Doctor
Knight, of Chicago, who desired to
convert the place into sanitarium,
so we are informed.

good chance is given to judge them at

A marked improvement is shown over

Of nearly all Of its old men who are

The army regulations governing all

year. No carelessness in handling guns
or ammunition will be tolerated, and the

ord Of the past seasons in regard to the
lack of accidents. All cartridges must
be accounted for on the score sheet of
the men firing. and ammunition will be
dealt out singly to prevent the maga-

EVILS IN BOWLING
CAUSE Of TROUBLE
President of New York City
Organization Scores N. B.
A. Board of Governors.

NEW YORK, Jan. 18.-The annual
meeting Of the New York Bowling AS
sociation was held at the Hotel Vic
toria. broadway and Twenty-seventh
street, and considerable discussion was
provoked when the report Of the nomi-
mating committee was refused by the
president and board Of governors.
DR.. Stratford F. Corbett, the retiring
president, declined denomination and
voiced his reasons as follows:
THE recent decisions Of the board OF
governors of the National Bowling AS
sociation, amending rule so, permitting
any five registered bowlers to form a
club ten days prior to national tourna-
ments and compete therein. opens the
door for mushroom clubs.
This rule was passed without the
knowledge or consent Of the New York
Bowling Association by a self-perpetuat-
ing body Of men who represent only
themselves.
THE men who comprise The national
hoard and are responsible for the rule
permitting loaded balls to be used and
are now encouraging the formation Of
mushroom clubs. should stop and con-
Slucr tndt tne new YORK bowling AS
sociation has been fighting for years to
eliminate these two evils, and this ar
bitrary exercise OF power cannot be sue
ccssful in New York II the legitimate
bowling clubs decide against them.
This vicious legislation nullihes the
efforts I have made in the past to keep
the game clear Of commercialism and In
the hands Of the amateur bowlers and
upsets my plans for the future.
Therefore I must decline TO accept
the denomination rendered by your COM
mittee as president Of the New York
Bowling Association for the incoming
year"
