Historic mansions are transformed
to shops. Such is the most beautiful
of them all, the town house of the
Due de Morny, where Napoleon III
plotted his coup d'etat, and which
had it's secret entrance to the Jardin
Mabille. 1t is now used by an art
dealer to show of and sell his wares.
Such is the house of the notorious
Paiva, bijou palace which cost Ma
poleon III some three million dollars
to build and furnish. Situated in the
center of the Champs Elysees, the ar
tistic decorations of it's interior still
render it unique among the noble
buildings of Paris. During the last
years of the second empire it was
the home of the fascinating Marquise
de Paiva.

in WRONG THRU DECIMALs

In our editorial on the tax law last
week unnder the caption "Refect Up
on This" the accidental misplace
ment of the point in some Of the fig
ures we gave made US in error. The
figures were correct, but the point
found its way into the wrong place.
For instance, the types were made to
read that the duplicate had been in
creased to 422,343.65, whereas it
should have been 42,234,365.OO. How
ever, the figures and the pointing in
the amount of increase were correct.
The same error crept in in giving the
duplicate for last year. The amount
read $401, 10000, when it should have
been $4O,17O,9OO.OO. While it is
probable that most Of our readers
recognized the displacement Of the
decimal point, nevertheless, the
Warnes law and it's working have
been so persistently knocked by its
opponents that we wish to be placed
on record in. an exact way, thus the
correction.

WANT INTER-COUNTY ROAD

For some time there has been a
movement for an inter-county road
through Liverpool township. Several
months ago the matter was discussed
considerable, but of late not much
has been heard about it. However,
the county commissioners have assur-
ed the people of Liverpool that they
are entitled to such road and that
they will do all within theirpowerto
assist the trustees in securing it.
The trustees find thatthepopulation
of the township is divided as regards
the location Of this road; some tax
payers want the Center-road North
and South), while others prefer the
so-called Moehle-road (Lester to
Valley City,
A town meeting was called by the
trustees last Friday evening to de-
termine which road might be the
choice of the majority. Many, how
ever, did not learn Of the meeting, SO
that less than eighty men were pres

Operation Fatal
to Doctor Wood

A great many Medina people will
regret to learn Of the death of DR.. w.
I. Wood, a former resident of this
place, later of Massillon and recently
of Seville, which occurred at German
Hospital, Cleveland following an op-
Grafton for appendicitis. DR.. Wood
located in Seville only few months
ago, coming from Massillon. His i'll
ness was of short duration.
The body was brought to Medina,
where funeral services were held Mon
day at the home of his daughter, Mrs.
Rae Boswell, of 227 Grant street.
The deceased was born at Litchfeld,

1880, she dying October IL, 1889. To
them were born two children, Rae
Boswell, Of Medina, and Frank Leland
of Massillon, both Of whom survive
him. :,
Only short time ago he fitted up
an Office in Seville and again had
entered upon the practice of his pro-
fession, but an attack Of appendicitis,
for which he was operated upon in the
German Hospital, Cleveland, termin-
ated a very useful career.
Besides his children, there survive
his brothers, Chas. H. Wood of Chi
cago and sister, Mrs. C. w. Mcdowell
of Seville.
Funeral services were conducted on
Monday afternoon at the home of his
daughter, with burial beside his wife

Councils Met
Tuesday Night

Council met in regular session Tues
day night and in spite Of the fact that
it was the night of the primary cleo
ton when most fellows like to hang
around, the whole council body was
on hand ready for business.
After the bills had been paid a
resolution was presented to author
ize the renewal of two notes held
against the village by the Medina
County National Bank for $3.50 re-
spectively. One was for the purchase

and the other was for the installing
Of a settling tank at the north dis
posal plant. The resolution was i'm
mediately passed.
Two communications from the man.
ager Of the Cleveland Southwestern

first gave the statement that the
Clerks first letter had been mislaid.
Simultaneous with McNeal's sec
ond letter to the railroad manage
ment the latter's attention had been
directed to an article in the Sentinel
stating that McNeal had never re-
ceived any reply. The latter's letter
had been written with view to pre-
vailing upon the railroad company to
fix up the pavement along side Of
their traaks on North Court street
The second letter from the company
conveyed the information that they
will be pleased to meet with the coun-
Gil any time that can be found con-
venient The mayor appointed the
entire council committee to meet
with the company's manager.
Councilman Bennett then offered a
resolution authorizing the solicitor to
