ANNUAL FAIR.
Summit County Agricultural Society
Preparing For It.
At a meetingof the directors of the
Summit County Agricultural society
Saturday afternoon, preliminary ar
rangements, for the annual fair were
made. One of the features will be
the exhibition of Happy Jack, the
guideless pacing wonder. This con
tract has already been closed. It
was decided to advertise for bids for
the erection of a cattle barn to re
place the one destroyed by fire.
Thanks were returned to Akron
firemen for their services at the re
cent conflagration. The Akron
Driving club was given permission
to use the track Friday afternoon
during the seas-on.

QUICK RETURN.
Money Invested In Gas Plant
Proves a Winner.
B. G. Dawes of Akron, the young
street railway magnate and owner of
gas plants, is at the Astoria. Mr.
Dawes, with other well-known west
ern capitalists, has recently come in
to possession of a big gas plant at
Little Rock, Ark. Scarcely had they
got possession than a representative
of a great trust institution in New
York offered them a 25,per cent ad
vance on the purchase price.
This offer it was that brought Mr.
Dawes Bast. Notwithstanding the
possibility of a quick and flattering
turn of the capital invested it is
quite likely there will be no sale.
Future prospects are too good En
quirer. Mr. Dawes is one of the owners of
the Akron Gas company.

NEW EDIFICE
To be Erected by St. Pauls
Episcopal Parish.
The Stone Structure Will Cost About
$30.000 Liberal Donation.
At the last meeting of the vestry
of St. Paul's Episcopal church the
matter of the erection of a new
church received attention.
It is proposed to build a stone edi
fice an the lot, surrounded by Mar
ket, Fir and Forge streets. It will
be one of the same style of architec
ture as the present chapel. The
church will be considerably larger.
It will face on Fir street, with en
trances on both Market and Fir.
The estimated cost, including a fine
new pipe organ is $30,000.
Many members of the church have
expressed a willingness to donate
liberally for the new edifice and it is
believed that all the money needed
for the purpose can be raised with
out trouble. A lady, who is an at
tendant of the church, has $2,000
which she will turn over to the
Vestry at any time for the erectiqn
of the church. Definite action will
probably be taken at the next meet
ing of the Vestry.

THE BOY PHENOMENON
To Demonstrate His Magnetic Power In
Akron.
This is-truly an age of evolution
and never in any previous period of
the world's history have such unex
plainable phenomena been produced
touching material things as at pres
ent. Scientific men are bewildered
and remain silent when confronted
with the wonders and what Feem the
miracles of these latter days.
The public of Akron will now have
an opportunity to witness with its
own eyes and judge with its own un
derstanding as to these things.
On Wednesday and Thursday
nights the Boy Phenomenon, the
great magnetic healer will give pub
lic demonstrations of his ability to
heal the sick at the Grand Opera
House, where he will demonstrate
his" abilit to cure the most stubborn
chronic diseases by the "laying on
of the hands."
The press of the entire country
teems with laudatory articles on his
marvelous work. The Boy Phenome
non has been before the public of
Philadelphia for many months and
wherever he has given, demonstra
tions of his skill all bear witness of
his honesty and power.
A short lecture will precede each
demonstration which willfully delin
eate the wonderful power of animal
magnetism in the healing of the
sick.
Those on crutches or canes, the
rheumatic, paralyzed, deaf and lame
are invited to be present and be
treated absolutely free, but should
comeearly that front beats may be
given them.
A Wheelman's Views.
Editor Democrat :
I notice by the papers that when
the ordinance in regard to street
sprinkling was presented at the
Council meeting Councilman Brady
made the remark that "The Czar of
Russia would not impose such re
strictions on the people as this ordi
nance.'r Mr. Brady forgets that this
country is further advanced in civili
zation than Russia. I am surprised
that he shows such ignorance of our
laws and would like to call his atten
tion to the act passed at Columbus
in 1898 calling for a dry strip on all
paved streets in cities of the first
class and a fine of $5 for anyone fail
ing to leave the dry- strips. Mr.
Brady must have met some scorcher,
for I am sorry to 'say there are a few
left, but there is law for such, and he
should not blame all the rest of the
wheelmen. -
Any rider knows the danger of wet
pavements, especially the way the
water is slopped in Akron. Wonder
if Mr. Brady won't find out that
there are a few wheelmen in the city
if he ever comes up for office?

CHARLIE'S INFAMY.
The Brnte'a Appalllnsr Cruelty to It In
ThonKhttcAK Bride.
There is a certain Chicago bride who
recently decided that her husband was
an unfeeling brute and went home to
mother for a peculiar and nnnsnal rea
son. The mother was awakened just be
fore dawn one morning last week by a
sound of sobbing and weeping outside
her own sleeping room door. Her hor
ror and astonishment at discovering her
only daughter in the depths of apparent
desolation and despair can well be im
agined. "Charlie was crn-u-u-el to me,"
wailed the bride of a month or there
abouts mournfully, "and so I came
home."
"But what did Charlie do the
wretch!" inquired the mother, ready
to blame the husband on general prin
ciples. To this qnestion, however, the
bride retnrned no answer save bitter
weeping. Then the mother, feeling that
the case was beyond her, administered
a nerve restorative and awoke the
bride's father.
"Now, my child," began this indi
vidual, speaking with the authority of
one who had settled all her difficulties
from the time she could walk, "tell me
immediately what that wretch of a
bnsband of yours has done and he shall
suffer for it whatever it is."
The bride's ardor cooled perceptibly.
Her voice was almost steady as she be
gan her story.
"Well." she commenced bitterly,
her eyes flashing at the remembrance of
her wrongs, "Charlie was out very late
last night, and I thought I'd get up
and and say something to him
when he came home. I had thought
that so long as Charlie was gcing to be
so late home I'd I'd fix up my com
plexion a little. So, when Charlie got
into bed in the spare room, I just for
got everything bnt him and went in
there. And and" bitter sobbing
again "I forgot all about the beauty
mask I had on and went right in with
it upon me. And" a perfect paroxysm
of tears half drowned her words at this
point "Charlie mnst have thought I
was a ghost, and he threw a pillow at
me." Chicago Inter Ocean.
FIGURES WITH FINGERS.
Origin of the Roman Numeral Meth
od of Conntinjr.
Hold your hands up before you, palms
outward, thumbs at an acute angle. Be
gin on the left. Little finger I; little
finger and ring finger II; little finger,
ring finger and middle finger III; all
the fingers of the left hand IIII; and
the hand and thumb at an acnte angle
form V. In place of the IIII you may
use the fourth finger from the left, still
holding the thumb at an acute angle,
and you have IV.
Now pass to the right band. Holding
the thumb and the hand at the same
angle as before we have VI; by using
the index and the middle finger we get
VII, while the thumb and the three
large fingers make VIII.
Now join the two V's made by the
thumbs, inverting one, and we have X,
or 10. Then use the Xwith the last lit
tle finger before it and it will give IX.
The combinations following X are ob
vious. The forefinger of the left hand,
with the thumb at right angles, make
a perfect L; the little finger of the left
hand curved toward the thumb makes
C, the initial of centum (100), and so
on with the hundreds. Now join the
two thumbs with the forefingers, or
two V's inverted, and you have the
hieroglyphics complete. Philadelphia

llli Hair Turned Black.
There have been ssveral instances of
a man's hair turning from white to
black. One of the most notable perhaps
was that of 8n engineer in the fire de
partment of Louisville. His age was
05, and he was on duty dnring a tre
mendous fire for 15 consecutive hours.
The spray was constantly flying from
the hose, and he became, in consequence
of the lowness of temperature of the
atmosphere, covered from head to foot
with ice. He wore a Ekullcap and a
helmet on the top of that, so that his
head was the warmest part of his body
and not at all exposed, though his eye
brows and whiskers became wet and
were frozen stiff. The afternoon after
the exposure his hair, which had be
come gray eight years before and had
for three years been white, turned per
fectly black. Louisville Post.
A WJlllns Slave.
"A pretty saying of an army officer is
reported by an exchange. He married
in 18G5 the daughter of a man whose
whole heart was in the cause of the
southern negroes. The marriage has
been a very happy one. "Were yon so
much interested in the slavery question
when I knew yen?" asked a college
friend, who had not seen the officer for
30 years.
"Yes, but I didn't talk much about
it," was the reply. "Bnt after I met
my wife's father I became a strong
abolitionist, and very soon after I met
her 1 became a slavel" Detroit Free

In ancient times and among inland
peoples the possession of a salt spring
was regarded as a special gift of the
gods. The Chaonians iu Epirus had one
which flowed into a stream where there
were no fish, and the legend was that
Heracles had allowed their forefathers
to have salt instead of fish.
