The crowded conditions of the Chicago terminals and the consequent difficulty in getting baggage transferred promptly has resulted in a very marked preference being shown by travelers of routes through St. Louis. This is conspicuously life case with passengers traveling across the Continent, but it is also noticeable in traffic to and from all points The popularity of St. Louis routes between 1 various large centers is likely to be very considerably increased in consequence of this dellectio^i— St. Louis. Mo. Republic, May 11th. Accidents from bicycle riding on the ’ sidewalks can only be averted by compelling cyclists to respect the law. See. 3861 of the statutes of the state declares i that “it shall be unlawful for any perI son to rule or drive upoi) lire brick, ■ stone, plank or gravel sidewalk of any ■ town or--village, or upon any similar ; walk for the use of foot passers by the I side of any public highway in the state. i unless in the necessary act of ''crossing i the same.’' Sec. 3362 provides a penalty: > “Any person who shall violate the prol visions of this act shall be deemed guilty > of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction - thereof shall l>e fined in any sum not- 1 j exceeding 33.” The supreme courts of j different states have decided that cycles . or wheels have the rights of vehicles i only.

HOUSE BREAKERS AT WORK. They Get Their Work In On Several ‘‘Liable” Persons of Wealth.—Home Talent Suspected Three houses were burglarized here Saturday night. The burglars entered the dwelling Amos Gillig, ebloroformsd tbe family, and then proceeded to ransack the house. They secured about $7 in money for their trouble. About the same time Charles Cottenberg’s residence was entered and pillaged*. A few dollars was all that rewarded their labors here. Henry Hite was not over Hooked while-all this was going on. His gold watch and alxjut twenty-live cents was the amount abstracted here. It was a lucky switch tjiat the partners in the grocery store-—Hite & Foredyce—made that night. Instead of Hite taking the receipts of the day, alwut S2OO home with him, it was taken by Foredyce. Home talent is suspected MONROE STREET PORK HOUSE.

Schneider's brother-in-law has been interested in the business as partner. The immediate cause of the failure of this firm is a mystery to the puttie, but the scarcity of the circulating modium among the working classes, who were given credit, played a prominent part in the financial downfall of Schneider & Weber. Mr. Schneider will rc-open the place at once, and solicits tbe patronage of his old customers and the public generally. MEMORI AL DAI. Memorial Day is once more near at hand, when the patriotic citizens of the United States assemble to strew flowers on the graves of the Nations dead. The large numbers that assemble from yearto year to pay this tribute to those who lost their lives for the preservation of the Union, shows what a grateful people i lie Americans are. As time Hies and yurs roll by this beautiful custom,—inaugurated by General John A. Logan, becomes more and more a part of the great acts of our people. But a few years more and all those who took part in the great struggle that gave rise to this day, will have passed away, but their heroic deeds will remain fresh in the memory of the American people as long as this Republic shall stand.

Plymouth has a man by the name of Clearwater; Elkhart has one by the name of Drink water: Columbia City has a Pond, and then' Srenuinerous Brooks amp Lakes all over the country, Nick Miller is still recognized among the married portion of Decatur's citizens. A girl of the heavy weight order made its appearance at bis home yesterday. We will hereafter count Nick a full-lledged citizen. Colonel Gunter, of Marion, inspected Company "B," 4th regiment, at their , armory Wednesday evening. We had the pleasure of looking on at their vai rious maneuverings on foot arid in the ■ manual of arms, and from our extended military knowledge, must say that they will pass -away above" the average.

The Merry-go-round will beready to-day. This is a nuisance and should be classed with the street fakirs. Some people seem to be bmlta-purpose for others to prey upon. Today will find many strangers in town looking for green pasture. We hope they will find poor picking. If .we are compelled to write someone up for being "taken in.’’ we will surely say "A foot and his money soon parts.” Tile De.moi invr wilt hate a reporter searching for , fuels to-day. He will visit the,Merry-go-round to view the crowd and there he will ? see people- who are not the intelligent peo- | pie of the town, indeed, these -people 8 make it a business to live off of children ■ and fools.
