ACCIDENTS

Ambulances rushed up to the hos
pital at Ohio State University $40
times in 1885 to unload victims of
automobile accidents in central
Ohio-and that's only one hospital
in the states capital city. Some
cases were serious, others were
minor. Here's the picture of one
victim, as described by DR.. j. H.
Upham, dean of the medical school.
Il saw one woman walk into the
emergency room on the bone stick

dangling behind her; her chest was
crushed; she swung a broken arm

We had to work on her II hours at

In 10 years 305,833 persons in
the United States have lost their

.IOST CHILD OF AMERICA"

A forty year old clipping scissor
ed out of the St. Louis, Mo-, Re-
public, by yours truly" when a
boy, we offer here as fairly COM
plete account Of the abduction OF
Charlie Ross, which Byron Ray,
Meigs correspondent, queried about
in last weeks issue.
History OF The Abduction OF
Charlie Ross
Charlie Ross was the son OF
Christian X. Ross of Germantown,
Pa, and at the time of his disap-
pearance was little over four
yeras of age. The child and a
brother six years old were playing
July /, 1874, in the streets of Ger
mantown, when couple of men
drove up in a buggy and persuaded
the children, with promises of toys
and candies. to get in and ride
with them in the vehicle. After
driving around the place for a lit
tie time, the older brother, Walter
Ross, was put out of the convey
ance, and the strangers gave him
25 cents, telling him to go to the
store near at hand and buy some
candy and torpedoes for himself
and Charlie. Walter did as he was
told, but when he came out of the
store the men with Charlie and the
vehicle had disappeared. 1t was
believed at first by the relatives
and friends of the missing boy that
he would be returned in short
time, as they supposed he might
have been taken by some drunken
men. Time passed, however, but
no trace of the child had been dis
covered In a few weeks a letter
was received by Mr.. Ross, to the
effect that if he would pay $4,000
his son would be returned, but
that the parent need not search for
Charlie, as all efforts to find the
abducted boy or his captors would
only be attended with failure; and
it was stated that if this amount
were not paid, Charlie would be
killed. The father answered this
and a long correspondence ensued
while the search was prosecuted in
all directions. Mr.. Ross wante5
the child delivered at the time the
money was paid, but to this, the
abductors refused to agree. 1t i!
stated that more tndn S5U,UUU was
expended to recover the child. Al
one time two gentlemen were two
days in the Fifth Avenue hotel
New York, with the $4,000 ransom
money to be given to the child
thieves, but they did not appear
The search was continued, and thu
officers of the law were looking III
any and all evidence, until the1
had located the two men. These
were found Dec. 4, 1874, commit
ting a burglary in the house o
Judge Van Brunt, at Bay Ridge
Long Island. The burglary wa'
discovered, the burglars seen ant
shot by persons residing in an ad
Joining residence. One of the meI
was killed instantly; the other liv
ed several hours, and confessed
that he and his companion had alb

RelnerSviIle

The work of sealing abandoned
coal mines is being vigorously en-
tered into in the adjoining town
ship of Bristol. The project is a
public health measure, designed to
overcome the sulphuric acid pollu-
ton of contiguous steams in great
measure. The operation consists OF
filing the openings of the unused
mines with earth or masonry, eX-
Guiding the air, preventing the oXi-
dation of the iron pyrites and the
consequent formation of sulphuric
acid within such mines. 1t has been
estimated that thousands of pounds
of this acid is being discharged to
streams in the absence of any cor
rectiye measures minimizing the en-
trance of air from without and be-
cause of the ungoverned drainage.
This pollution is recognized as dis
astrous to life-organisms.- Mr.. and
Mrs. Dorset Kincaid of Mansfield ar
rived Saturday forenoon for an over
Easter visit with their parents, Mr..
and Mrs. w. w. Wilson of the vii
lage and Mr.. and Mrs. Newman

guests of the formers parents, Post
master and Mrs. S. l.. Brill for two
weeks, motored with Dwight Ste
phenson to Hebron, Sunday, where
she met her husband, Edmund Wal
ter, enroute to their Columbus
home. Mr.. and Mrs. Jesse Grand
staff of Coshocton were Sunday
guests of the formers mother, Mrs.
Viola Grandstaff, and his brother,
Harry Grandstaff, and family Miss
Leoma Henry, domestic in an Eagle
port home, visited over Saturday
night with parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Warren Ashton, Of the Fred Rex
farm, near Woodgrove.--S School
play goers were almost unanimous
in their verdict that the comedy
drama given Friday night on the To-
cal school stage was among the best,
| if not altogether the best ever pre-
sented here by local school talent.
The cast was selected by Prof.
Riley Bankes to portray to best ad-
vantage the dramatic talent in the
high school and under his supervis-
ion the aim was realized according
to local critics. "Aunt Samanthy
Rules the Roost,' was the vehicle
through which the following named
pupils found expression for their

SUPERSTITION HIT BY
WEATHER CHIEF

William Fl. Alexander, chief OF
the U. S. weather bureau in Colum-
bus, takes a fling at some of the
popular weather superstitions, in
the current issue of the Engineer
ing Experiment Station News, Ohio
State University. Here are few
things Mr.. Alexander urges Ohioans
not to believe about the weather:
"That the weather is something
that suddenly swoops down upon
us at any time and without warn
ing Every effect had it's cause and
the same cause invariably produces
the same effect. That the moon
causes or even influences the wealth
er. That the weather for a season
is determined by the kind of wealth
er that happens to prevail on GER
tain calendar day. That the char
acter of a coming season con be told
by the behavior of animals, by the
thickness of fur, or the bark on q
tree. That seasons are permanently
changing. Remember the fellow
who said, 'We never have old fash
ioned winters any more?o Changes
may be, in fact are, going on, but
999 to one any marked change is in
the person and not in the seasons
That the grounding Cor any other
kind of hog) can tell the weather
for the next 40 days by simply see
ing, or not seeing, his shadow. That
the occurrence of the equinox caus-
es storms. That anyone has yet
the weather year ahead. That
anyone has yet found way of pro
ducing rain artificially."
