FEW CHANGES IN
GAME LAWS

The changes In the Ohio game law
arc few, but the most important are
announced as follows by Chief Warden
Speaks. The open season for squirrel
in Ohio is changed 10 September 10 to
October 20, with a limit OF fivo for one
days bag. A new law provides that
mo person shall catch, kill or injure
any fox from the lst day of December
to the LIST day of September both inclu-
sivo." Muskrat has been designated a
game animal with an open season from
January TO April ]. Raccoon has
also been placed under the jurisdiction
OF the fish ind game department with
an open season from November ] to
March ]. The law provides that
muskrat and raccoon may be killed
by the owner OF the property at any
time when found injuring property,
except Sunday. The above were the
only changes made. A new edition
pamphlet is being printed and as soon
as ready for distribution copies will be
sent out

PHYSICAL EXAMINATION
WAS CUT OUT

1t was first announced as part of
the new marriage law that prospective
grooms must pass physical examina-
ton by physician before license
could be issued. 1t was found recent
ly that this feature hadbeen eliminated
before the bill became a law, and
Judge Dugan is not requiring such OK
aminations to be made. This removes
one difficulty that loomed large in the
path leading to the coveted license.
Notwithstanding the announcement
that has been made in all the news
papers about the new law, a number
of young men have been applying for
licenses without having their bride
with them, and they were compelled to
make another trip to the temple of
justice with the fair one before the
license could be secured.
1t formerly took all the nerve the
average man possesses to do the thing
up alone. but now that he is forced to
bring his fiancee along, the ordeal is
something awful.

HIS FOURTEENTH
YEAR

DR.. Mahon's next visit marks the
beginning Of his fourteen years work
in Mercer County. The past years
work has been the most successful one
of the Doctors long and unbroken
practice in Mercer County. There can
be but one reason for this, that he cures
his patients-as gentleman remarked
who saw the crowd of patients leaving
DR.. Mahon's rooms at the Ashley
House on the occasion of his last visit
here. Certainly the people must be
satisfied, otherwise no man could main
tain such a practice long" He was
right, as the Doctors continued sue
cess here plainly shows. Among the
Doctors recent patients who recon-
mend him is Mr.. David Hole, who says
DR.. Mahon cured the ulcer under his
arm which he had for years. The DR..
visits this city again tomorrow (Sat-
urday).

HARD BUMP, BUT
CAME UP SMILING
Peter Shuck Thrown from L. z.
q w. Train While on Way
Home from Sandusky.

Peter Shuck, of East Fulton street,
fell from the baggage car of the Eagle
Excursion on tho Lake Erie % Western
when that train, westbound, last Sun
day evening hit sharp curve near
BlufTton. Shuck, with a number of
others, was riding in the baggage car
and was leaning against the partly
opened door. When the car hit the
curve he was thrown out, but luckily
he escaped with only dislocated
shoulder. How he escaped death is a
miracle, as the train was running
about 35 miles an hour when the acci-
denl occurred.
The train had proceeded for moro
than half mile before stopped, and
when they backed up the track to
look for what they expected to be
dead man, they found Pete coming
down to meet them. Word WAS sent
on to Lima, and the road physician
met the train and cared for the injured
man. He was brought on to this city
and is getting along nicely.

STIFF PENALTY GOES
WITH FALSE

to each county auditor, advising that
II an Incorporated company has made

true value, or whore there has beon
evasion made of returns, that the pro-
perty Is properly assessed and also add
the 30 per cent penalty.

ASKING TROUBLESOME
QUESTIONS

Last week a piece of land in In
dianapolis, less than one-half acre,
was sold for $4,000. This land
cost when bought from the United
scarcely eighty years ago, about 50
cents. 1t has been held for specu-
lation, and is now sold for the
above price. Who made that land
worth all the money paid for it
over and above 65 cents? Who
but all the people of indianapolis?
And if those beople, by their in
dustry, created that value, why
should it belong to private indivi-
duals?-Rockville (Ind) Tribune.
There is no reason why it should moi
except that the people are foolish
enough to permit it, When American
cities demand and obtain the same
freedom that the cities of Western
Canada enjoy, then indianapolis viii
be able to follow the example set by
Vancouver, Edmonton and other pro
gressive places In abolishing taxes OF
Industry and placing them entirely OF
the land values. That will be begin
ming toward letting the people owl
what they create.

MOULDED BY CIR
CUMSTANCES

Yoshio Markino in the July Nc
CLURE's tells the following anecdote of
his literal mindedness:
AT the grammer school / used to be-
lieve all that I was taught. But very
often made a misunderstanding. For
instance, our reader said: THE hu-
man nature is just like the water. II
you put the water into a square vessel
it will be come square; If you put it in
TO a round vessel it will have a round
shape. Boys and girls, therefore,
you must choose your friends"
No sooner than the school hour was
over, ran to a neighbor who had a
newly born baby. l told the mother:
Don't put your baby in a hard flat
bed; her figure will become flat"
