THE MANSFIELD NEWS, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1911. ABE MARTIN YOUNG MEN WAFITE U.S. NAVY A CHANCE rU VISITALL THE POINTS INTEREST WORLD NO PLO What's worse than th' feller that asks a uestion an' then don't pay any attention t' th' answer? What would you rather do somebuddy er go fishin'? BOGUS NICKEL HAS NOT RETURNED And Until It Does, It Can Not be Determined Whom the Joke is On. No Intention to Defraud. A card which proves to be a lemon in disguise, is going the rounds and several have been stung on it for a nickel.

The trick is an old one and was handed around a few years ago when victims paid a dime to get 1n on it. The trick seems to be in an inverse ratio to the cost of living, as the price for learning is going down. The trick is to say to the victim, "Give me a nickel," When the persons come across with the coin, he is handed a card which reads, "Thanks for the nickel, Mr. E. Z.

Mark. You are now a member of the Fish club." The clerks at Freundlich's store had some of these cards and among these marked for membership, was Joe Seibert. A friend, out of pity, rut Joe next to the game, and to turn the trick, gave him a slug which was a very good imitation of a nickel. Joe was to give this coin when asked for a nickel. He was Jubilant over the prospect of turning the trick by the flip of a coin and started out to do the other fellow.

To be sure of laying his hands on the right coin at the right time, Joe put all of his real money, which didn't take him long, nor did it make a very big pocketful, into one pocket. On his way to the lich store, he dropped into the Smokehouse to get a cigar, so he might appear unconcerned. He paid for the cigar then went on his way. When he reached the store and the time came for fishing up the bogus coin, Joe put his hand in his pocket but the slug was gone. Then he remembered he must have paid it out by mistake for the cigar.

He hastened back to the Smokehouse to redeem the bad nickel but so clever was the imitation, that it had been given cut to someone by mistake. The bad nickel has not yet returned, so it can not be determined whom the joke is on. Joe had no intention of passing the bad nickel for real money on anyone except the card shark. USES FOR WOOD SCRAFS. Material Formerly Wasted Is Now Considered Valuable.

In these days of high priced lumber the utilization of the small pieces of wood formerly considered of little or no value assumes considerable importance. The Woodworker gives a number of uses for these scraps. Some furniture makers glue together small clear pleces down to one inch wide and one foot long and find that they serve very well for the interior framework of bureaus, chiffoniers, sideboards and similar articles. Wheelwrights save the ends cut from spokes and shape them in lathes for chisel, gimlet, auger and other small tool handles. Wagon builders occaslonally make use of scraps of hard woods for lining brake blocks.

Sash and blind makers save their scraps for the match factories, or if the pieces are large enough they are worked into corner blocks, rose blocks and balusters. Coopers recut broken or defective staves of the larger sizes and make kegs or smaller vessels of them. Small headings are economically manufactured in that way. Occasionally defective stares and headings are made into dowels. Basket makers save the cores from which veneer bas been cut and saw them into thin slats for baskets and crate covers.

Brush manufacturers have made some headway in using waste from furniture factories, but the pieces are of so many sizes and of such irregular shapes that success has been only partial. A small porch chair shop bas been able to draw a considerable part of its raw material from the waste of boat factories. Some of the makers of interior Anish work their odds and ends of soft woods into small boxes, And the bard wood scraps are made into parquet flooring. Planing mills work scraps and broken pieces, unsalable in that form, into boxes for apples, 1 medicines and other articles and into brackets, balusters, rose blocks and small quarter round moulding.

FOUR AVIATOR RODGERS WILL NOT REACH MANSFIELD BEFORE WEDNESDAY NIGHT Machine Was Badly Damaged When He Made Descent Near Salamanca, N. On Sunday Afternoon So That He Will Be Delayed For Several Days -Will Alight In Mansfield On the Ohio State Reformatory Farm. It will be several days, probably Thursday, before Mansfield people will be able to catch a glimpse of Aviator Cal P. Rodgers, who is one of the contestants for the $50,000 prize in the coast-to-coast flight and who is following the line of the Erie railroad in the fight between New York City and Chicago.

It had been expected that Rodgers would be able to reach Mansfield by Monday night, but an accident to his machine while he was alighting at a small place west of Salamanca, N. Sunday afternoon will prevent it. It is really impossible to state just when he will be here as it will require some time to make the necessary repairs to the flying machine, and then it he has no further accidents he may make the flight from Salamaca to Mansfield in a day. Rodgers will positively stop at Mansfield, no matter when he arrives. According to the reports received at the local office of the Erie railroad, Rodgers left Hornell, N.

Sunday morning, and expected to reach Jamestown, N. at noon and then on to Meadvile, for the night stop. So confident was he of reaching town that he had ordered a luncheon for himself and several in his party. The aviator did not have the success from Hornell westward, as he had trouble with his engine. He made sixty-seven miles west as far as manca and was proceeding on in his eight flight.

miles At Red of House, a Salamanca, small it station was west found necessary to make a landing. In making the landing, one of the planes of the air craft struck a wire fence and it was so badly damaged that the machine was taken back to Salamanca, N. for repairs. It is Impossible to ascertain the exact exthe damage, but it was announced by the Erie railroad that it would probably be a few days before he would be able to start again. If he is able to make a successful flight when he is started again, Rodgers will attempt to make the trip west as fast as possible.

Salamanca is 270 miles from Mansfield, and it would be almost impossible for him to make the flight in a day unless he has had usual 1 success. Most of the aviators who have made long flights have never been able to make more than a dred miles in a day. Again, there is a possibility that he may be very close to Mansfield, within twenty miles or so, and then be compelled to descend on account of engine troubles or for other reasons. It may, therefore, be as late as Friday, Saturday or Sunday before he is able to get to Mansfield, if he ever gets here at all. Rodgers will positively descend in Mansfield, and his advance representatives arrived in Mansfield Sunday afternoon to make the necessary arrangements.

In the personnel of the party is A. Roosevelt, of Dayton; rence Peters, of Philadelphia, and R. Butler, of New York City, Mr. Roose. velt is the advance representative of the aviator and seeks the necessary places where a landing may be made, and is incidentally a second cousin of former President Theodore Roosevelt.

Mr. Peters is connected with the VinFiz company, which is backing Rodgers in his flight across the continent as an advertising novelty. Mr. Butler is advertising manager for Armour Company in New York City and is a lightning scenic artist who is assisting in the campaign. Mr.

Butler is a wizard with the brush and his ability is shown in the clever work that is on exhibition in local stores. Some trouble was experienced in securing a favorable landing place for Rodgers when he does come to Mansfield. E. G. Slough, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, and Mr.

Roosevelt made a trip about the city in the former's automobile. It was suggested that Wiler field might be place, but this was not wide enough, while the numerous trees and wires at other large fields about the city made them impracticable. The course of the Westbrook Country club was also suggested, but it was found that there are too many trees in the immediate vicinity for him to attempt the descent and ascent at that place. A visit to the Ohio State reformatory was made this morning, and after a conference with Superintendent Leonard permission was given to make the landing on the reformatory farm. The exact part of the farm where he will alight is the field of about twentyfive acres located on the North Main Sagging or Hanging Cheeks and Chin (From Woman's Magazine) Flabbiness of cheeks, chin or neck has been considered very difficult to correct, until the recent discovery of a veritable wonder-worker for such conditions.

The preparation is SO simple and harmless any woman can easily make and apply it. It is all the more remarkable in that its beneficial effects are apparent even after the first application, both as to appearances and the feeling of comfort produced. The formula is: Powdered saxolite, 1 dissolved in 1 pt. witch hazel. Use daily as a wash lotion.

The solution tends to contract and solidify the loosened, baggy tissue, smoothing out the folds, creases and wrinkles, besides having a refining influence OD skin of coarse texture and large pores. As witch hazel and saxolite can be had at any drug store at little cost, many will doubtless be glad to have this successful recipe. W. N. MARSHALL AT SANDUSKY WORD FROMSHELBY SAYS JOINT AGENT AT SHELBY RETURNED TO BROTHVI'S HOME DAY NIGHT.

FREE TO RETURN TO SHELBY No Criminal Charges Against Agent As Mother and Brother Make Shortage Good Mother Left Monday Morning for Sandusky. Wife Remained in Shelby. W. N. Marshall, agent for the Big Four and the B.

O. railroads at Shelby Junction, who disappeared early last week when an auditor came to check up his accounts, appeared Sunday night at the home of his brother in Sandusky. When it was given out that Marshall was short about $1,000, his mother and brother came to the rescue and made good the shortage. His mother whose home is at Bellefontaine, has been staying with the wife since the disappearance of the husband. Monday morning she left for Sandusky but the wife remained in Shelby.

It is not known at Shelby where W. N. Marshall has been but the supposition there is that he has just learned that his shortage has been made good by his relatives and that he came to his brother as soon as he learned it would be safe. Nothing could be learned at Shelby today of his whereabouts since leaving Shelby, so suddenly and mysteriously last week nor what he expects to do in the future. It is the supposition that a family council is being held at Sandusky today.

The friends of William Marshall belieyed at the itme he disappeared, he was mentally unbalanced or he would not have acted SO strangely. No criminai charge was placed against Marshall and when it was found he was short, his mother and brother immediately made good the shortage. Another strange side to the story is that, though Marshall had an account at one of the Shelby banks, he did not draw it. The Big Four auditor callseveral shippers and asked them if they had paid recent bills. They claimed they had and some of them had paid in checks.

The auditor was unable to find these or find any place in Shelby where they had been cashed. As no charges were placed against Marshall and the shortage having been made good, he is at liberty to return to Shelby where his family is. It is not believed that he could again get his old position back. A. F.

SHEPARD Member of Ohio State Board of Public Control OUR NEWEST BIG GUN. Sixteen Inch Terror Will Hurl a One Ton Shell Fifteen Miles. The United States navy is about to astonish the world again with a new gun having 3 caliber of sixteen inches, which will make the present world beating fourteen inch gun obsolete. The plans for the new gun have been made by Rear Admiral Twining, chief of the bureau of ordnance. The admiral says that the length of the gun will be sixty-seven feet.

The four. teen inch gun is fifty-two feet bore and about eight feet breech. The fourteen inch gun fres a shell that weighs 1,400 pounds and can rip the armor off a ship at a distance of eleven miles. The sixteen inch terror is to carry a shell of the enormous weight of 2,000 pounds and will be effective at fifteen miles, thus proving that the horizon cannot put a limit to modern naval science. A somewhat greater ship than is now projected is the necessary consequence of guns of the size contemslated by Rear Admiral Twining.New York World CITY NEWS NOTES George Schneider, of Buffalo street is ill.

street road just north of the large red barn which is on the farm. It will be a fine place and will give every one who desires to see it an opportunity to view the descent and ascent of the airship without in any way hindering the aviator. Police protection will be furnished so that the aviator will not be hindered by the crowds, which will probably come from surounding towns, as well as Mansfield. The machine which Rodgers is using in making his flight is an EX Baby Wright biplane, one of the new models turned out by the Wrights that 1 is capable of high speed. All necessary repairs are carried the special train which is accompanying Rodgers 80 that he will not be hindered by lack of parts for his machine.

That the biplane is capable of great speed is shown by the distance he has traveled when he has the air. His advance representatives state his greatest difficulty has been in the hilly country through the east, and that when he gets farther west he will be able to make twice as great speed as at present. The special train, which is following Rodgers is known as the Vin-Fiz special. It is painted white so that the aviator will have no trouble in distinguishing it from other trains on parallel lines. It carries all the necessary repairs for Rodgers' machine and also an automobile which is used to convey him about after he leaves his biplane.

In the special party on the train are Mrs. Rodgers, Lieut. Rodgers, the army aviator, who made such a sensational flight in the east and who will give exhibition flights at points west of Chicago where stops are made, and C. H. Davidson, president of the Vin-Fiz company, which is backing the flight.

A large number of newspaper spondents and photographers are on the train. After leaving Mansfield stops are to be made at Lima, Rochester, Crown Point and Chicago. It is 10t known just what railroad will be followed west of Chicago, but Rodgers will probably take the southern route through Missouri, Kansas and Texas on to California. Before leaving for Lima today, Mr. Rosevelt stated that under good conditions Rodgers should now reach Mansfield Thursday afternoon and that he will remain here for the night.

He also stated that the site selected for the landing was the best that had been secured of any the cities at which Rodgers has been scheduled to make a stop. He asked that the officials warn thep ublic in regard to giving the aviator plenty of room in making his descent and that no one be permitted to get on the field until his machine had touched the ground. He stated that possibility of all accident was very great and that extreme caution should be used. Great interest has been taken in the coming of the aviator, and it was stated at the local Erie office that over 500 telephone calls were answered Sunday relative to the coming of Rodgers. The Chamber of Commerce will provide the white cloth which will used 1 to mark the place where Rodgers will descend.

EIGHTEEN TYPHOID CASES IN MANSFIELD While There Is No Cause for Alarm Because of Cases of Fever, Necessary Precautions Should Be to Prevent Epidemic. Eighteen cases of typhoid fever have been reported to the health authorities of the city during the present month and while this is not an unusual number at this season of the year, extra precautions should be taken by all to ward off the disease. Dr. Davis states that it would be ter to boil all drinking water and take such other precautions as might tend to prevent an epidemic of the fever sweeping over the city. Thus far, only one of the eighteen cases that has been reported, has been fatal.

The afflicted persons are not in any, particular portion of the city or along any milk route. None of the cases are attributed to the milk supply as this has been watched very closely, while the water supply is being guarded as closely as possible. Four cases were attributed to the water supply from a well in the northern part of the city, but this well has been condemned and the possibility of more cases resulting therefrom shut off. It appears that most of the cases have resulted from persons returning from their vacations and the germs of the fever were secured by drinking the strange water while they were away from home. There is no cause for alarm because of the number of cases that have been reported during the present month, but the health officials state that it would be better to take all necessary precautions.

It was reported that the death of Miss Norrick was due to a relapse following an attack of typhoid fever. The health officials state that no case of typhoid fever was reported to them in this case and that an tigation will be made. William G. Wisler, of Galion, was a visitor in the city Sunday. Mr.
