Witnesses Examined.
Case of Prof. Glover
Received Attention.
Prof. Thomas Acted as
Cro'ss Examiner.
Dr. F. C. Reed Asks Questions
For the Defense.
Reported That Damage Cases Will
be Brought.
Tt waw staled Friday that 1'rof. R.
S. Thomas would institute damage
cases against the witnesses who give
testimony before the investigation
committee.
Those who have been the most
active in bringing about the investi-,
gat ion say that this report has had
th$t effect of intimidating the teach-
ers and other parties, who were ex
pected to testify before the commit
tee. The committee met at the superin
tendents office Thursday night. But
three witnesses were examined. The
case of Prof. N. L. Glover was con
sidered. It will be remembered that
a $400 cut was made in his salary.
He claims that Prof. Thomas told
him that he had protested against,
the reduction. Two members of the
Committee on Teacher and Salaries,
Messrs. Frese and Kelly, say that
Prof. Thomas, instead of remonstrat
ing against the reduction, recom
mended that the cut be made. The
witnesses examined Thursday even
ing were Messrs. Frese and Kelley
and Prof. Glover.
Prof. Thomas is present at every
session of the committee, acting In
the capacity of a. cross examiner.
Dr. F. C. Reed, who is a member of
the committee, it is said, sks ques
tions that are calculated to create a
sentiment in favor of Prof. Thomas.

Columbus, June 2. (Spl.) Before
Senator Haima retired last night lie
remarked that the gubernatorial con
test was, to him, "like a Chinese
puzzle," but it developed' in the con
vention this morning that he was
merely joking.
The balloting for governor demon
strated that the Hanna forces were
in complete control, for Judge Nash,
of Columbus, the Hanna favorite,
was nominated with ease.
After the Oratorical fireworks had
been touched off at the opening of
the convention this morning the bal
loting for governor began.
The first ballot resulted: Nash
2S9, Daugherty 216, Douglas 61, Asal
Jones 76, Durbin 46, Hall 39, Nevin
82, Orr 17.
Summit county divided its vote be
tween Nash and J)augherty, with
one each forDurbih ana Nevin.
Nash Nominated.
Nash was nominated on the second
ballot, receiving 388 votes. The
strength of Douglas, Durbin and a
part of the Hamilton county vote
controlled by Boss Cox, that had
been scattered on the first ballot,
made the nomination possible. On
motion of Chairman Holcomb of the
Cuyahoga delegation, a leading
Daugherty man, the nomination was
made unanimous.
Boss Cox Defeated Alexander.
John A. Caldwen, of Cincinnati,
was nominated for Lieutenant Gov
ernor on the first ballot, defeating-J.
Park Alexander of Akron and Capt.
E. S. Stanbery Wilson of Ironton.
Caldwell is a favorite of Boss Cox,
of Cincinnati, who supported him in
part as a means of evening the score
with Senator Alexander for legislat
ing Cox's Board of Public Affairs
and subordinates out of office last
winter.
Other Nominations.
W. D. Guilbert was re-nominated
for AuditSr of State by acclamation.
I. W.'Cameron of Columbiana was
nominated for Treasurer on the first
ballot.
Attorney General.
On the third ballot J. M. Sheets of
Putnam county was nominated for
attorney general. Motion to make
unanimous carried. .

Property With a Shot Gun at
Boston Ledges.
Telephone connection between
Akron and Cleveland was cut off
Thursday afternoon.
The heavy storm blew a large tree
down at the Boston Ledges, owned
liv William H. Evans, the well
known real estate man. The tree
fell across the Central Union wire
and broke it. When the companyte
lineman went to repair the damage
they met with resistance by Mr.
Evans. He ordered the men off his
premises. They refused to go. He
then armed himself with a double
barrelled shot gun and threatened to
shoot the first man that attempted to
put the wire up on his property. The
Central Union sought relief last
night by getting an injunction from
Judge Stone, of Cleveland, restrain
ing Mr. Evans from interfering with
the company's lines. Mr. Evans was
at tiie Ledges at the time the storm
occurred ldbking after tho construc
tion of addition to his pavillion.
Mr. Evans' Statement.
Hih son, William H. Evans jr.,
made the following statement to a
Democrat reporter Friday morning,
He said :
"Several years ago the Central
Union Co. had its line on the east
side of the road. When the A., B.
& C. put wires on the east side, the
Central Union moved to the west
side. It made arrangements with
L. K. Ranney, a farmer, south of the
Boston Ledges, to put poles on his
property. Without asking us the
company afterward intended to cross
a corner of our property. Its men
trimmed the trees in order
to get a line through. The trees were
damaged to such an extent that it
will eventually kill them. The trees
were of special value to us as they
furnished abundant shade for our
patrons waiting for cars. We ad
dressed several letters to telephone
officials, but received no satisfaction.
Then we dropped the matter until
yesterday, when the storm blew
down a tree, which fell across their
line, completely breaking it. When
they came up Thursday to repair the
same we objected to their putting the
line on our property, but were per
fectly wiUing to let them put it up in
the road.
"Sheriff Kelly served an injunction
which had been issued by Judge
Stoun of Cleveland. Early this
morning we consulted an attorney
in regard to the matter .and fully in
tended to obey the orders of ihe
court."
The line was repaired today.
Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup cures the
most stubborn coughs, colds and
lung affections. Even incipient con
sumption has been successfully cured
by this marvelous remedy. Sufferers
will obtain relief after a few doses.

SOUTHERNERS' AND COFFEE.
A Cooking School Teacher from the South.
My father was a Southerner, and
therefore we always had offee threo
times a day, and as a result, are a,
very nervous family.
I could not break oir from the
coffeo habit until I found a delight
ful beverage in the Postum Food
CofTee.
I have learned to like it better than
coffee.
We did not like it at first, because
it was not made according to direc
tions, but sirfce we have come to
know that it must be boiled, we are
enthusiastic in its praise.
I give lessons in cooking, and am
naturally brought in contact with a
great many people whose habits of
food and drink I leacu. f find that
many families have come to know of
the iidvantagoof Postum Food Cotreo
and have abandoned common cotfee
altogether, f could send you a long
list of these if you care for it.
T cannot speak too highly in praise
of Postum. 1 have often wished 1

worth and giM! it to those who are

Indulge In a Controversy on Sunday
Observance.
itev. j. n. jtuuenge, lonneriy pas
tor of the Main Street M. E. church,
has evidently touched the Mayor of
Glenville in a tender spot.
The Cleveland Plain Dealer has
the following:
The village of Glenville is con
siderably stirred up over a row be
tween Mayor Wright and the Rev.
J. R. Rutledge.
The minister said something in
prayer meeting reflecting on the vil
lage officials and the mayor took ex
ceptions to the utterances and called
upon the minister. The result of the
call was some pretty warm talk be
tween the two gentlemen.
In the prayer meeting Rev. Rut;
ledge said all the village oflicials had
been presented passes to F.uclid
Beach park. He declared they had
no business to accept such favors as
it interfered with the administration
of the village affairs.
Mayor Wright told the minister lie
had not received any pass but that if
one were presented to him he'd ac
cept it mighty quick and if she want
ed to go to the park on Sunday in
stead of going to church, he'd go.
The minister said the saloons of
Glenville were open Sunday. The
mayor told him to all intents the sa
loons were closed and that he did
not intend to "sneak" around back
nlleys to find out otherwise.
"It's my business to preserve pub
lic peace," said tin mayor, ''mid I
am doing that. Another tiling, a
man has as much moral right to take
a glass of beer on Sunday as he has
to'go to church :. if a man wants to
KO fishing on Sunday instead of co-
mg to church he has a perfect right
to do so."
