It seems strange that the editor of the Democrat should remain silent in his last issue over the paving question, ile intimates that lie has been instrumental in securing every improvement that has been brought forth in Plymouth, and'now lie is antagonistic to this benelicial work. It would not be more than right for those of his constituents that were and have been opposed to this important matter to know through his publication how cheap this wor ic can be done. Those Gutters. Now that it seems probable that ti e question of street paving will be settled. xc take the liberty of giving an opinion upon the paving of the gut U rs. In the specifications the contract calls for "cobble-stone gutters." That kind of material for gutters is out if date and should not be used. If we are to have paved streets, let it be doue in a proper manner, and pave from curb to curb. We believe every property holder along these two important streets will favor the doing away with a cobblestone gutter. They would look out of place on a paved street, and the work necessary to keep them clean would more than pay the extra cost. Crushed on the Rail. Saturday's Daily, A telephone message from Argos recites the story of a man who fell asleep this morning on the Lake Krie track, near Tippecanoe river bridge, and who was lying at the depot at Argos in an unconscious and critical condition at 1 o'clock this afternoon. He was struck by north-bound L. L and W. passenger train Xo. 20, due here at 12:03 p. m. His left foot was cut off above the ankle and his skull was badly crushed. He was picked up by the train crew and brought to Argos, where he was temporarily cared for at the depot and Ids wounds were dressed by Dr. Oyler. He is a man about 7A years of age. His name is Angus Mel 'her son and bis home is said to be at Marion, Ind. How lie came to been the track and to fall asleep there is mt known. From Monday's 1 rüiy, Angus McPherson, who was struck and fatally injured by a locomotive engine near Tippecanoe river about 11 o'clock Saturday morning, died in Argos between 4 and ö o'clock yesterday afternoon at the office of Trustee Win. (lordon. Uy later reports than those of Saturday, itis learned that McPherson was considerable older than fifty years. What led to his being on the track and falling asleep there is still unknown. His remains were buried in the cemetery at Argos yesterday soon after Iiis death. The New Uaby. The new baby is always a wonder, and is a subject of proper comment in household and paper. Yet there is nothing new about a baby, and there is nothing more old-fashioned on earth. The very latest one born is a duplicate of the first one that ever peeped and kicked and squalled. They are all alike as so many little pigs. They all have the same funny little grimaces and angel smiles which no one but the mother understands and appreciates. They all wrinkle up their foreheads, get mad and red in the face, just as Cain did when he was a kid, and they all rassle with the fore lingers of their man guardians like the outcast baby of Poker Flats. JJabies are the same yesterday, to-day and forever. Yet this world could not get along without babies, and the arrival of one to the sorrows and joys of this life is always a matter of profound interest and makes us all akin in sympathy, whether born in the home of the president or only the heir to the love of a poverty-stricken mother. The Brosius Sewing Machine Company. In a conversation with a well-known business man of this city yesterday, relative to the IJrosius Sewing Machine and Motor company, he said: 'Such a factory would be one of the most desirable that could be added to Plymouth's industries." He also expressed himself as believing that, if representatives of tho company will come here and demonstrate that they have a really practical machine, with reliable motor attachment, capital will be forthcoming for the formation of a stock company. From the information wo have we believe the machine is fully up to the standard of merit claimed for it, and - elieve the 1 Jrosius factory a very do

l . 1 K i The Skvsius comoanv is not looking among cities lor the IncriiJ e.d bidder, but for the hist place for a permanent location where a stock company, with sufficient capital to mauui'aturo and market its product, can be organized. It is not likely that the niosius people will take a great length of time to decide upon a location, anil wha! is to be done in the matter ought to be done at once, Escaped Inlury. AVhile returning from a day's outing at LakeMaxenkuckee Wednesday night William Wyaut and wife, accompanied by their guests, Anthony Lccliti.er and wife, met with an accident which made their hair stand straight, when they thought hov." easy they might all have been killed. They had just gone up a steep hill and down on the other side and had gained level ground, when the king bolt dropped out, letting the front wheels and pole loose, the front end of the buggy dropping down. Mr. Lechiitner, who felt it give, jumped over the dashboard and stopped the horses before they had timeto think of running, thus averting what might have been a serious accident. A farmer, who lived near by, was summoned, and with the assistance of a lantern the damages was soon ra pairid and the party preieieled on its way. Narrow Escade. I'm in li iility's l;ii;y. As train Xo. 13 on the Lake Krie and "Western Uailwav, iluo in thiscilvat V:!s, was Hearing Walkerton this morning Fireman C. W. Fultz went out on the running board to oil the valve of the engine, lie ha I accomplished this and was in the act of turning to re-enter the cab when just at this point the engine gave a jerk throwing him over backward on the ground. Ueing :i the right hand side he was seen by the engineer, who brought his engine to a stop and backed up to where lie fell, lie had picked himself up and was taken on board, brought to this city and turned over to the care of Dr. J. II. Wilson, the company's surgeon. On examination it was found that he had sustained a fracture of the collar bone and a cut above and one below the right eye. The fracture was reduced and the cuts dressed, Mr. Fultz taking his punishment in true railroad style without a complaint, and congratulating himself on his narrow escapo from death, lie will leave for his home in Peru on the 0:1a train tonight. Saved the House. "rusu l"riil:iys lnily. Mrs. A. ('. Thompson was baking bread yesterday morning, and to hurry it along in the raising,set it on the gasoline stove with a cloth over it. In some way the cloth took lire while Mrs. Thompson was in another part of the house. On returning to the summer kitchen she was surprised and a good deal frightened to lind the whole room in a blaze. Hushing to the door she shouted for help, and was not long in getting assistance. Charlie Miles, w ho was painting on a house near by, seeing that the lire was gaining headway fast and that to run to the engine house and ring the bell would mean the loss of considerable valuable time, climbed upon the roof, where the lire had eaten unite a hole through, and called on the neighbors to form a line and pass up their buckets of water. In this way they soon had it extinguished. A Hit at Bloomers. A tender hearted writer in an exchange gets off the following: When the women all wear bloomers and their skirts are laid away; when their legs no more are rumors, coyly hid from light ot day; when their petticoat's fo gotten with its swishing, whisking swirls, and there's less demand for cotton, I'll be sorry for tho girls. 1'il be sorry for the lasses who m school are at their books- I'll be sorry for their books -at the head or foot of classes I'll lie sorry for their looks, for their ma's will make their trousers, and good heavens! don't we know, who were boys, but are not now, sirs, that they'll make a holy show! It is bad enough w hen Willie weareth pants his mamma made, and it otctn knocks you silly just to see the youthful blade wearing pants that no man knoweth which is front or which is back if he conieth or he goeth there is quite an equal "slack." Hut your Susie! Oh, 'lis galling; scalding tears will downward glance, when you hear the urchin's calling: ''Say, where did you get them pants?'' You will see her youthful, glowing, but by no dead certain rule can you tell if she is going or coming home from school. There'll be trouble you'll allow sirs, there'll be anguish for your pa's, when the daughters all wear trousei s that are just revamped from ma's. So Fin weeping as I am writing and my great tears fall like pearls, scarce I know what I'm inditing, for I'm sorry for tho girls.

The whole organization is conducted with a view to presenting the best audi most that money and ene rgy ( an brim: together. The hoics are slick, I'nely kept and strong, the ladies are i.ea:!y all young and pretty, the animals are splendid specimens of their respective classes, and full arrangements are made for the accommodation and comfort of visitor.-. Among the more notable specimens of animals in the me nagerie are a huge rhinoce-ros, a gigantic hoppopotamus or behemoth, a eage of s-plenehd tigers, containing one which, was captured only eight months ago, which is the' largest in captivity, several African and two Asiatic lions. One of these is the original for the famous painting by Pope, made recently in London. Theie are also the only genuine full-blooded zebra in America, the rings lunning down to his hoofs; a wcil-kcpt, harte best", the only one traveling, a bis antelope, a splendid specimen of the Indian yak. a polar bear recently brought from Norway, some I'ersian sheep, neve-r before e xiiibited. the only addis, eland, water ho'.;, wait ":og, and girah'c in the country, a nylghau, and 21 elephants, aniongthem Tom Thumb the little trick animal; a giant gorillaJohanna. Chicko's widow -the fame of which has extended all over the world, and without doubt the greatest living attraction ever seen with an e xhibition. The circus exhibition has three rings ami two stages, racing track, and stee Ibarred trainee' animal arena, and the number of performers is largely in excess of those ever seen before. Many of them are European celebrities, and their acts are novel and original. The most graceful and diMicult of all the equestrian acts are-preformed by young and handsome women, and only champions appear in all of Hie eighty circus acts. The exhibition of the trained animals and elephant is a marvelous one. One herd contains a dozen huge -beasts, one of which is only a lew inches less in height than Jumbo. While wild beasts ami domestic animals peforni at once in the arnena. Everything in and about the llarnum & llailey Show is on the scale of magnitude which implies a wonderful amount ofexcutive ability ami through discipline to manage successfully. The million dollar street paraele will take place in the morning.

"The Little Fcd School House." The greatest institution in America, is "The Little lied School House." How this synonym of the common school originated it would be hard to teil, hecause there are but few of us who have ever seen the red school house-. They are generally painted white with green blinels, if they have any blinds. I Jut reel, while', green or drab the house may be painted, tho free, common, public schools held in them, are what make America what it is. The common school has been one of the greatest successes of a great free people. It has always been a triumph. It lits oar country, our government, our institutions, our laws. It is like the government anel the people, republican. It is an exposition of the' doctrine of human equality, the children of the rich and poor stanel alike-. The bell rings in the morning ami school is ti ken up, anil until evening when the'-chil-dren go home, they have be en unele r the control f a miniature b'nitetl States ef America. It tloe-s not belong to any church or se-ci, pelitieal party er sen-icty. It belongs to the whole people of the rnite el States, who maintain it and keep it going forever anel ever. The native American looks to the common school as the place where he will ge-t his education as his father and mother elid before him ami as his children w ill do after him. The foreign born who come here fall readily into the ielea, The common school has the se-at of its supremacy, not in laws and enact merits anel customs only, but in millions of hearts. The school house; is at the cross roads, on the hill, or in tlrj midelle of a township, always humble anel unobtrusive, considering the part it plays, the work it does is looked back to by inillietns of men ami women with feelings for which any weutls form inadequate expression. There was founel that priceless gift, an education, when there was no other opportunity, no other door open. There were found the beginnings of knowle-dge; the elawningsof ambition; perhaps the spring of leive, the; very first inspiration of life. In the mindsof the boundless numbers as they look back to it, the humble walks of the school house rise and spread and stretch away into those of a mighty temple. This is what tho common school,

Hard work ami lots of it may succeed in getting the daily on a paying basts. Success is the best we! wish to it. Burglarized Again. I'inüi i-ci;l;iy's I;u!y. When a man's res. u iice' or business property is broken into anel goods ami valuables taken, he is as a general thing considerably nonpiusseel anel doesn't know what to say or eh, but af. ter t!uught, generali' piades the matter in the Panels of tin proper olbcers, consoling .himself with the thought that lite parties who committett the ele-e-el will be appre-hendeel in due time and given their prc-per punishment ami per haps his goods may be found anel returneel to him. J Jut when that same piae-e of business is broken into again inside of six weeks time and goods, jewelry ami other valuables earrieel oil', it would seem as though that man was having more than his share of trouble. Itis then that, he begins to feel as though something desperate is needed to be done ti pretect himself from these thieves in the night who prowl around w hen hone st people are in bed, breaking bars and bolts anel carrying off whatever they can Jay their hanels on. Such was the case with August Carabin, but it wouiel seem as though he had been market! as a special subject to be attache' by these human leeches, for last night, only a few days since the second robbery at the store, he was awakened by a noise m his hetlroom, to lind a masked man going thrtmgh his clothes which lie had laid on a chair near the he-ael of the heel on retiring. It was about It' o'clock, ami be-ing awakened from a sound sleep Mr. Carabin experieneeel some elillicultiy in collecting his thoughts, but when. he did, calle-el out te the marauder to know what he was doing there. The fellow became frightened anel took to Ids heels, going through the door. It is supposcel that he gained entrance through a door that had been left unlocked in the evening for one of the young men who was spending the evening out. The burglar must have gone in after Mr. Carabin hael ret i reel anel secrcteel himself somewhere in the house waiting patiently till the young man returneel, lockeel the door anel re-tired in another part of the house, then the prowler prepared an open exit anel commenced operations. He had just secured Mr. Carabin's r0 golel watch and was in the act of going through other pockets in his cledhing when frightened away. There is as yet no clue', but tracks around the house woulel indicate that there were two parties implicated, one being stationed on the outside to give the alarm if necessary. Electric Railways. Some two years ago capitalists be'gan to materialize a project, in which a railroad woulel be built with electricity as tho motive power. In looking around fer a suitablo strip of country to launch this enterprise, they decided to run tho

; road from si. Louis to Chicago. Ln-j '"O a! D-nviT v.as worth a million etolg;iie rs were pro cure to stirvevthcroute lars to the state. It brought there !.',-

; and the light of vmv secured. The newspapers at that t ime contained numerous articles refering to this venture and. "old wiseacres" shook their heads when col fem plat ing, the then suppor cd f: d :h undertaking. it is mi pi .ssin.M to stale the vast amount of monev that was sunk in this oward fast transportation, ami o-day at r.dinbiirg. II';.. can be seen the umiui-died grade of the electric rail- , way. The piincipal ieatmes of ibis ; work were about as follows: Power house s were tobe h-cate-d along : i he' line, some twentv mile's apart and outside of the- edectrie power that would : he ur-e-d for transpoituig fieight and passenger traflie, suiheienl ele-ctrieii y j would be' furnisheil to have- two rows d lights between the-se two great cities.

jry the work to completion. An effort was made- to sell stock but pmved a failure. It now appears that eastern railroaels have this same matter uneler eonsieler- ; ation. anel one- road has gone' so far as to utilize a branch to elemonstrate the feasibility or using electricity. So far the results have been entirely" satisfac tory, and there is but little tloubt, ere many years roll by, that steam engines will b surplanted by electric motews, witli a speed ed" ninety to l.o miles an hour. A cutiar Condition. One of eiur exchanges publishes an article from a pape-r known as the jAmerie-ati Sentinel, wherein it is set I forth that seven men, honest and resue cleei, we're; arre'sted for working on jMtiulay. It is also slateel that they j were believers in the let Jewish Subcutin and kept thai ekiv. It also gives its rentiers the information that the-y were placed in a chain gang to work out their line amounting to ST" each, imposed upon them for worshiping ac-e-ording to the dictates ed their em con-science-s. In commenting upon the subject, this editor uses the following language: "It strikes us that this question resolves itself, not in a juestion of religious liberty, but of law. If these; men know it is against our statutery laws to wrk on Sunday anel they tlo so in defiance ed" the law," we himlly see how thev can expect er deserve svmpathy." We are loth to believe there is a man that follows newspaper work, that has such a narrow concept ien of religious libertv. As we understanei it, law is foimdeel principally upon the teachings oft hi Uible. l.ibical history teaches us that the law given to Moses, by the Inf.nüe, informell the pi'ople that they should observe the Seventh day. That j law has never been changed only by the inferior creature, man. Xo Divine utterances made the first elay of the week the Sabbath. Yet our contemporary thinks these men, who have lisobeyed the statutory law by doing manual labor n Sunday, deserve no sympathy, even if they are manacled with common criminals for serving oel as their ctmseience ilictateel. When this country becomes so bigteel in its greatness, that men are confmetl in jails like eimmoii criminals for obeying the teachings of their hearts, on religious matters, it is time that radical changes should be maele, lor it savors too much f the inquisition. ADDITIONAL LOCALS. A county fair without a lot of biey-ch-s races anel geul prizes will not be in it this fall. Dr. Linkenhelt reports sore throat and elislemperasiuite prevalent among horses in this !cality. Kdward Snyder, of South Itenel, li'd last Sunday from lockjaw. This was caused by stepping on a nail. South P.enel is coming to the front in a blackmailing suit. The parties connected with it are reported as very prominent. Charh's Hammond, ed" Chicago, has taken up his residence in this city anel is meiving into the McCall property, west of tho Lake Krie depot. . The Chicago Tribune has been regaling its readers with a discussion as to which is the sweetest anil mst useful to mankind, a briar root pipe or a baby. The Kpworth League have secureel the room formerly occupied by tho Moeiel grocery, anel w ill use it for a restaurant on circus elay, serving warm meals all elay.

Drivers must give way to the walker, and it is further s!ate-tl that lue hast- to get out of the' way is not nec-e-ssary. Age nt Dial received a card from C.

The original constitution of the Tinted State's, of which there is only ne copy, the final engrossment with the signatures attached, is kept secure in a steel cage maele on purpose for its preservation. Lately there have been some photographs of it taken. It consists of four large sheets of parchment and is excellently preserved. The insanity dodge in criminal eases is getting pretty well playenl out. Vet shrewd lawyers will continue to urge it in one way or another. The latest maneuver in this line is by a man out West somewhere, who challenged the jury he is being tried by as being all insane and demanding an inepiirenelo lunatico on each of them. A letter has be-en receivel by a fi lenel in this city from Miss Mary liomig, of near Plymouth, whe left senile tune since te attend the meeting of the Xational 1'ducational association at Denver, in which she says she enjoyed her trip via St. Louis ami the Crystal route very much; that she is feeling lino ami having a delightful time.

Now that horses can be bought cheap this is the time for speculative buyers to invest. There is as goenl a chance for some daring speculator t make his ever-lasting never-get-over fortune as there ever was. Plena Temple was sold when she was four years Jl lor thirteen dollars, as she was thought to be only a scrub. When she was thirteen years M she sld fer tight thousaml ihIlars. The best of it is, she lived till she was 33 years old. One of the most important objections raisel against paving the streets at this time has been the necessity, in the future, f tearing up the pavement to replace water mains and putting in sewer pipes. As to the first mentioned, there are iron mains n Michigan street, t to the comer of Carro, which will not need replacing. In the latter, that of sewerage, there are a number of exeellent reasons why the sewers should bo placed in tho alleys. It is very seldom that the line of sewerage is placeil in tho center of the principal business streets, in small towns at least. And, outside of tho above mentioned objections, is the cost of connecting with tho sewer fr water closet purposes by tho business houses, which would necessitate a lino of pipe from tho rear of their buildings to the middle of the street. Put tho sewers in the alleys.
