Canton Busin ess Men Donate Liber.
ally for the Race Meet.

Only too plainly was the progress
sive spirit as we'll as the boosting,
was shown by the Canton business
men when last Monday the Racing
Association committee was around
with a petition soliciting aid for the
C meet that is to be held in Can
ton July 18th, 18th and 18th.
In two hours of soliciting by b. S.
will, Chas. Seely and Martin
Lybarger, twenty names Of different
business men subscribed for $1,000 CO.,
and the Corner Drug Store gave 1925.
Tuesday the success was not so great.
but at that $1,000 more was raised,
enough to show the confidence in the
gentlemen thai are at the head of the
race meet.
The willingness Of the business
men to back up this proposition in
such a manner goes right to the
heart of all public spirited men and
the success OF the race meet merits
all the good luck In the world to the
men who tackle such a %stupendous
project.
Let all who can let the outside

NEW DRUG FIRM
 BEING ORGANIZED
Will Be in One of the Store Buildings
 in the New Hotel Pine,

rumor afloat yesterday of the or ganization of $10,O0O drug company ill this city, in which several prom lnent local physicians have taken stock and in which one prominent druggist is interested could not be verified. Rumor has it that an option has been taken on one of the large store rooms in the new Hotel Pine and that the new drug store will be opened up about the time of the formal opening of this elegant hostelry. Manager Gonzales stated to a Graphic representative that he had no connection whatever with the renting of the business rooms in the new building, therefore could not state whether an option had been taken or not.
 It is rumored that the new drug store will be one of the neatest and best stocked in the city, and that pre- scriptons will be specially and that it will be strictly "peopple's drug store," where moderate charges will be made on all goods sold. Diligent inquiry up to a late hour last night failed to bring forth any definite con- firmation of the rumor, yet several physicians were approached, one among whom stated that he under stood meeting was to be held today, at which time subscriptions for stock would be signed, but that he knew nothing definite of the organization or who the stockholders were.

Found Above OK
boW--Other Case.

Houlton. Me, Dec. 1.-two deaths
from exposure have been reported to
the county officials in the first cold
weather of the season.
A Polish woodsman was found dead
in the woods 90 miles above Oxbow,
early in the week. He left Fred Grants
camp to go to another camp, became
bewildered in the snow and evidently
sat down to rest and went to sleep not
far from the road. His body was TAX
en- to Oxbow and will be buried there
as no connections of his can be found.
Harry Drew, 30, of Smyrna Mills
came to his death in a peculiar way.
He had fallen from his tote team and
was found after he had lain in the
road unconscious for 10 hours exposed
to the cold and storm.
Drew started with his team, Thurs
day. for some lumber camps. AS he
did not arrive party was sent to look
for him, headed by Happy Jack" lott,
a baseball player who is guide in the
winter.
Inc party went odSh aiohS eho iSHN'
until they came to wheel tracks show
ing a turn. That made them think
Drew had returned to Smyrna Mills.
1t was not, until Friday morning,
that William Chase. another tote team
driver, came upon the body of Drew in
the road short distance from where
the searching party had turned back.
Drew was alive, but unconscious. He
was taken to his home in Smyra Mills
and died in few hours. 1t is believ-

bear. SHE'D and whirled in the road
and he was thrown off and stunned.
