The Dover Giants foot ball team was organized Thursday evening and the officers elected. Oliver Krantz the gen oral manager of the Garver base ball team was elected to manage the team for the coming season and W. Enck who has no equal in this part of the country as a foot ball player was selected to captain the team and will also act as coach. He will be assisted by Harry Zimmerman, one of the best players last year. There are 25 candidates for the team all of whom are very anxious to play but only about 15 of these will be selected for the team which will average about 175 pounds.

Three players from this city expect to join the team and are very anxious to do so as there is a poor chance for a heavy team being organized here for the coming season. After the team has been made up the boys will indulge in light practice during the next two months and will get down to hard work about September 1st. Canal Dover, Ohio, July 7th, 1904. ditor of Times, New Philadelphia, Ohio, Dear Sir: We write this letter, Editor Alberson, hoping you will give it a place in your good daily, knowing that you are of a liberal mind and believe in justice and fair treatment. On account of the influence brought to bear on the editors in our city by the minister of the First M.

E. church, and one advertiser, we were refused the columns of their newspapers. Certainly, truth should not hurt. We wish to reply to an article published in the Daily Reporter under date of June 21st, and signed by certain members of the official board of the First M. E.

church, this city. This reply would not be forthcoming were it not for the unjust and untrue rumors being circulated, originating, as we are told, with the two men most responsible for the actions of the board that purchased church pews from the trust without competition and at'an exorbitant price. The article referred to should need no reply, for on the face of it is seen the intention of the writers. It is insinuated that we did not tell the truth in our former letter. It is admitted that the matter of seating came up between us several times but, invariably, we made prepositions to sell chairs and never of ered onr pews for sale, it is also admitted that the architect would have nothing but pews and they likewise would have nothing else.

they state that at these several meetings with members of onr company, not a word was said about pews. it Reasonable or not, their statements can be disproven by the testimony of, at least, five honest witnesses to whom we shall be pleased to refer all interested persons. It is the action of the Kev. Dr. Sargent, pastor of the church, that we do not understand.

They are a puzzle; therefore for the benefit of those who have an interest in this affair on the part of the church, and our company we hope the Rev. Dr. Sargent will answer the following questions. How long have you known Mr. Beemis, representative of the Trust, of which pews were purchased for the First E.

church, this city? Why did you purchase pews from the same company at the last church of which you were pastor? Why was there trouble in your congregation about it? Why did some of the members say you had paid too much? Why did you write for Mr. Beemis to come here to sell pews, instead of the secretary appointed for that purpose? Why was Mr. Downs the acting president of your board of trustees and the man who objected to letting the contract without competition, not notified that Mr. Beemis was in town to sell pews? Why did you go to the home of Mr. Chas.

Hawkins, within twenty feet of the home of Mr. Downs, and there get Mr. Hawkins to go to see pews without even letting Mr. Downs know that Mr. Beemis was in town? Why did you tell the committee that the Trust made a better pew than any other manufacturer? Do you know that there is no patent on church pews and that any church furniture concern can make the identical article of another company Do you know that the pews purchased cost several hundred dollars more than they would have cost, had you allowed competition? Do you not know that the good ladies of the church have worked hard to help make that several hundred dollars? Do you not know that poor men have deprived their beloved ones to help pay that several hundred dollars? Why did you object to the consideration of the following petition at your meeting last Tuesday evening? Are necessary in warfare to discover the enemy.

But you would use a search light in vain to find better Drugs than we sell. This may be saying great deal. It is true nevertheless. 1 leave a jest when it pleases you best is a good thiDg, but never leave our store to find better elsewhere, for that will be a waste of time. We know that oars cannot be excelled.

OPES KADERLY MARSH CQ DRUGS, BOOKS. WALL PAPER NEW PHILADELPHIA. OHIO STOLE A HAT Mis3 Mae Price, of Canal Dover and Mr. Joseph P. of this city were united in marriage at Bloomington, 111.

Wednesday morning, according to a special dispatch to the aily imes The bride is one of most charming young ladies. She is a musician of ability and popular among a large circle of friends.

ardesty ec Some unknown person who could not resist the temptation to steal when he got the chance made a raise at a North Broadway residence Thursday evening that, though only a small matter, was rather inconvenient for Garrett Wilkin. I Garrett started down town about 7:30 and was about half way to the square when he stopped to see a friend. He had been standing on the porch and when he went into the house left his hat on the steps. Coming out a few minutes later he discovered that his hat was gone, and, although he made a thorough search it could not be located. The thief probably was walking past the house when the hat was laid down and took it immediately after its owner had gone into the house.

CLOUD BURST The Rains Descended Very Lively in Baltzley Valley. The residents of Baltzley Valley just east of Midvale experienced a small cloud burst Thursday afternoon. The rain fell in torrents for about a half hour, causing the small creek to overflow its banks and wash away several small wooden bridges. The residents of Midvale who live along the banks of this stream were surprised to see the water commence to rise and in what seemed but a few minutes to see the creek overflow. The water ran into the cellars of these houses and up to the floor of one that was built in a low place.

One woman went to step out of her back door and stepped into water that came up to her waist. Up the valley the fields were badly washed and in eeveral places the ballast was washed from the switch leading up to the mines. MANY A LITTLE HATCHET WAS SOLD BY CARRY. THE Have their Pictures in the Police Gallery of our City. Chief of Police Espich has made quite an addition to his gallery by placing eight new pictures in the large number already in his possession.

Prominent among them is the picture of Grafton Anderson, a criminal well known in this county; also Peggy Thomas another man who is acquainted at Police Headquarters. The picture of Chas. Maed wno hung himself in the county jail last fall was lost some time ago, and the chief had one from a negative of this criminal and it now adorns a prominent place in the collection. The other five are noted 1 criminals but not known by the citizens of this part of the country. IN A CISTERN Jacob but was Horse Dropped Rescued.

B. C. Hendershot, M. D. Physician and Surgeon.

144 North Broadway, New Philadelphia, O. Office Phone No. 41. Residence Phone No. I 61 Jacob Wallick came near losing a valuable horse about 8 Friday morning at his heme on West Fair by the animal falling into a cistern near the house.

The horse has been allowed the freedom of the lot, which runs from the alley to the house and includes the cistern. This morning the horse was fed into the lot as usual and left to its own amusement. The horse wandered around the lot for a short time and finally walked up to the house where it stopped directly over the cistern. The animal had been standing on this spot about 20 minutes when the brick structure underneath gave way and the animal was dropped into the cistern with about a half a ton of dirt and brick. Mrs.

Wallick and family are out of town and neighbors who heard the crash hurried to the cistern expecting to find the horse buried or drowned but were amazed to see it standing at the bottom of the cistern in a very unconcerned attitude. Mr. Wallick was notified by telephone and came home immediately, where a plan was soon adopted to rescue the animal. A trench was dug some distance away from the cistern and gradually Bloped down to the level on which the horse was standing and he was able to scramble out. The animal was frightened but except for a few small scratches it was not injured in anyway.

FRANK G. REA. DRUGGIST. Few are the political orators in this country belonging to the feminine sex. Few are the women in this country who i have the courage to walk into a place of business and smash things so that it looks as if a cyclone had struck it.

Few are the women who doing the above two things would have the cour- i age to face a hardened crowd of men and boys and begin a political and temperance harangue that makes many politicians take a back seat and many ministers blush. When you can see these three things summed up in one small woman is it any wonder that she attracts attention? Is it any wonder that the minute she speaks the people begin to gather so quickly that you are reminded of the Pied Piper of Fairy Tales? Yet wheu you see Carry Nation in her most familiar attitude, that of addressing a crowd on the street, you see all this and much more. Carry has a short stubby nose which is a 9 ign of pugnacity, which she does not lack in the least. She reached the square about 7 and immediately a crowd began to gather and as soon as she began to talk the ranks swelled. She began by wanting to know if the crowd were going to vote for the safety or destruction of the homes of this country.

She declared that the rep ib- lican and democratic parties were Doth i steeped in the vilest kind of corruption and that the prohibition party wTas the only one that stood for right and justice. She said her scathing denunciation of the two old parties by saying that it will only be a few years until every one will be only too glad to vote the prohibition ticket which will be the majority ticket. Carry was on her road to Dover and already had missed one car. She then a talk on men smoking and re- ce ved tumultuous applause on the recitation of her poem on smoking. She gave the men who were smoking several very hard jabs.

She said where there is smoke there is fire; fire means something is burning and that must be your vitality. Just then some young scamp blew cigarette smoke in her face but he was promptly squelched by being told that she would rather smell a skunk than a cigarette. Still another car went to Dover. She now began to sell her hatchets and the PICNIC AT DUNDEE. A party of 18 consisting of the families of Jacob Knight Theodore Burris, George Knight and Mrs.

who did not know of their coming but was very glad to see them and joined with the visitors in having a good time the entire day. The party returned to this city late in the evening. BIG SNAKES Hanging on dead Limb Killed by W. H. Whitmer.

Bicyclist Took a Fall While Carry Nation was Speaking. A bicyclist took a very hard header in the public square Thursday evening. The young man was riding across the 9quare toward the crowd that was being entertained by Carry Nation and in turning sharply to avoid a collision with a buggy he struck a pile of bricks and got off in a very undignified manner. He was not seriously injured but the handle bars of his wheel were badly bent and several spokes knocked out of one of the wheels.
