Girl. in Dream. Sees BURGLAR.

Lima. The vision of a burglar
standing beside her with revolver
leveled at her head, caused Edith
Roth, %, of Toledo, who is visiting
at the home of Grace Bidwell in
thl5 oisyj to leap screaming from her
bed at 3 o'clock in the morning. Her
shrieks awoke Miss Bidwell, who also
screamed.
The shrill appeals for help reached
police headquarters two blocks away.
A squad of policemen hurried to the
house. A search failed to reveal the
burglar. Then Miss Roth remembered
1t had been a dream.

RATE FIGHT WON
BY OHIO CITIES
Important Decision Rendered
in Freight Rate Suit.
CAR KILLS TWO IN AUTOMOBILE
Mrs. Elizabeth Maugheman one of the
Pioneer Settlers of North Wes-
tern Ohio, Dies at Her Home
Near Bryan, Aged 1903.
Ohio Cities Win Rate Fight.


Washington. - The great industrial
districts lining the Mahoning and
Shenango valleys have won their
long fight against the discrimina-
tion in freight rates to which they
have been subjected for many years.
The interstate commerce commits
sion handed down several opinions
bearing upon the freight rates, the
most important of which relates to
the charges for hauling iron ore from
lake points to the valley districts. 1t
was the decision of the commission
that the rate on iron ore from the
lakes to the valleys should not be
higher than the rate to the Wheeling
district
The present rate on ore from the
lakes to Pittsburgh is 96 cents a ton,
while the rate to Wheeling is Sc cents
a ton. An equalization of these rates
must follow Fridays decision. The
commission does not undertake to
name the figure. The amount that
shall be fixed as an equitable rate is
not so important to the valley dis
tricts. What is of paramount impor-
tance is that the rate shall be the
same to these great industrial centers,
so that one shall not enjoy the great
advantage over the other that Wheel
ing has held over competing districts
closer to the Lake Erie ports.

Gently been turning out some of their
horses to give them a change Of feed and
for q little recreation in the hills. One
of their bay horses was found in the
hills south of town the first of the week
seriously hurt, the animal having been
shot through the upper part Of the right
leg with a high power rife. The shot
made a clean hole through the heshy
part of the leg, and also took a piece OF
the large bone, but fortunately not
enough to break the leg. The horse
was brought into town and is now being
cared for at their stable, and it is thought
the animal will soon recove from its
wound. So far. it has not been ascer-
tanned who shot the animal. Another
horse they turned out about a week ago
is missing, and they have been unable to
secure any trace of the animal.

Tuesday Nights Show

The Frank Adams Southern Railroad
Show, that has recently been exhibiting
in the western part of Nevada, was
brought to Eureka from Palisade by spec
ial train Tuesday. Little or no previous
announcement had been made of its
coming. 1t arrived here about noon
and rave only an evening performance.
Considering the little advertising the
show received, there was a good attend
ance of Eureka people and those living
nearby who had learned of the perform
ance to be given. There was a trained
elephant and a limited number of other
animals in the menagerie, and with sew.
eral good horses that performed in the
ring, and the acting of the Adams fam
lily, who were all clever In their differ
ent roles. a very good performance was
given.
Albert Adams. about 6 years of age,
greatly pleased all of the younger Eu-
rekans by his horseback riding.
During the afternoon he rode a Shet-
land pony through town.and at the per-
Torrance ia the evening he rode two
ponies at the same time, standing with
one foot on each pony. with apparent
ease, while they went around the ring
at rapid speed.
