Thick vein of coal found near Yingling farm in Massillon area
Drillers on the John Yingling farm east of the city reached five feet six inches of coal. Charles Maugher leads the effort with plans pending based on test-hole results. Coal east of the Tuscarawas river is scarce, and roof conditions have deterred mining elsewhere. The Haring Wilson Co builds a switch for a new shaft at Christian Weiler farm in Tuscarawas township with at least twenty five acres proving up and four feet vein thickness. Bargains in millinery at Falke's.

Big Storm Ravaged Canton Area Floods and Train Damage
Heavy rains caused the South Erie stream to flood lower Russell Company buildings and the canal, washing debris and threatening the canal mouth. A culvert washout at Navarre interurban junction collapsed earth beneath the hospital switch, suspending streetcar tracks and injuring no one but prompting night repairs and track reconstruction. Nimishillen and other creeks surged, corn fields damaged, and interurban service halted briefly as cars and power equipment failed or needed repairs.
