Ohio Real Estate Booming.

TENTH ANNIVERSARY OF WM. MCKINLEY'S DEATH. Game Plentiful, Says Speaks. Tho hunting season this year will afford abundant gamo throughout tho state, in the opinion of General J. C.

Speaks of tho Ohio fish and gamo commission. Tho squirrel season, which opened last Friday, finds tho woods and fields a bounteous place for tho man with tho dog and the gun. There aro more squirrels this year than for many years, General Speaks avers. Tho duck season, which has been on slnco September 1, finds conditions parallel as regards tho amount of game. So also will the quail season find quail sections alive with coveys.

General Speaks gives various reasons for tho propitlousness ot tho gamo season. Among tho most cogent is the fact that tho hatching and breeding season has been ideal for extensive production of tho young. Inquiries About Law. Although tho Green employers' liability law does not go into effect until the first of the coming year, the stato board of awards is busy perfecting Its system and answering thousands of inquiries which reach It weekly. Six thousand manufacturers out of 10,000 within eight days responded to requests mailed by tho board for Information concerning tho nature of their business, number and sex cm-ployed.

'Tho replies represented little short of 1,000,000 employes. Tho board is mailing 10,000 pam phlets containing copies of the Green law, with explanations of each clause by Wallaco D. Yaple, attorney member of tho body. Inclosed aro questions concerning tho line of work, pay roll, whether companies aro covered by liability Insurance, present flat rate and extra hazardous rate. Majority Expected to Come In.

It is the opinion of board mombera that tho majority of employers will contribute to tho stato liability fund. According to the board, employes throughout tho state, as they come to understand the provisions of the Green law, also aro in favor of it and aro willing to contribute their 10 per cent. Liability companies aro at sea to know what rates to make to those not in under tho Green law. It Is patent, however, according to those familiar with tho situation, that liability rate will havo to advance, as tho removal of former defenses in case of accident will make their work of adjustment anything but a path of roses. They will not lose a certain percent age of business which has to deal wltb accidents outside of factories, work shops and other places of employment Cluf wStwcL 5287 This dressy llttlo gown depends for itscharactor upon tho materials choren for Its development Tho waist Is In tho popular peasant stylo, but there Is a seam down tho outsldo of tho sleeve from tho neck.

Wherever Democrats at last week's municipal primaries havo nominated Republicans by writing their names on Democratic ballots tho names of these nominees will be printed on tho Democratic ticket on tho November ballot. The names of Democrats nominated by Republicans will bo on tho ballot as Republican candidates. That Is tho interpretation of tho law bv Secretary of State Graves.

"Tho law," ho said, "requires tho voter at tho primaries to voto his party ballot. After ho gets tho ballot ho can write on it any namo no cnooses. If a Democrat wants a Republican of-flco-holdor, let him havo one. If a Republican wants a Democrat nominated, ho may voto for one by writing in his name." No Mix-Up Locally. In a number of towns this mixed result was caused by tho primary vot ing.

In most cases it atrecteu oniy candidates for minor ofllces. In Manchester H. L. Bradley, a Republican, was nominated as tho Democratic candidate for mayor. In Elyrla several Democrats wero nominated as Repub- llnnn candidates.

Thero wore no such instances in Franklin county, but In a number ot cases Democrats wroto on their ballots tho names of Republicans whoso names wero on tho Republican ballot. In almost all such cases tho election judges throw out theso votes. According to Secretary Graves' ruling, theso votes ought to havo been counteu. Picnic Beer Subject to Tax. Columbus.

Ho asked Attorney General Hogan, who answered: "I am unable to so any material difference between a per son receiving payment In advance for a ticket, entitling the holder to as much beer as he wants, and a person receiving on delivery from a person drinking as much as his capacity and pocketbook can stand. Tho person furnishing tho beer in either instance is selling it." Commissioner Strodo also asked: "If a dozen or so persons put up apleco and buy beer by tho keg, must they pay tho Alkln tax?" Tho attornoy general said: "If they sell tho beer, yes; If they drink It, no." THE SECRET OF BESUTY uroatesi xowot prouwuuuw -complexion In existence.
