Hogarth A Co. LOCAL BREVITIES. From Tuesday's Dally. The Fourth only comes once a year. Some of the boys haven't gotten over it yet. The dance at the opera house last night was a very enjoyable affair and well attended. Judge Capron received a telegram July 4 from Capt. John Capron stating that they were still at Tampa. Miss Klsie Maxey left this morning for Washington, 1). C, to attend the Teachers association. She will be absent for two weeks. Dr. Wilson received a telephone call this morning to come at once to lnwood to attend Or. Kaiser who is dangerously ill . Dr. Wilson left at once. A party of gentlemen made up a purse last night to have the news ot Sampson's victory verified. The answer was received at eleven p. m. which told the story. Supt. Kruyer of the poor farm informs us that his industrial army celebrated the Fourth in due style. They ate ice cream and cake during the day and gave a fireworks display in the evening. Mervin Myers caught the big pike that has been sporting in yellow river back of the old brewery. Myers had quite a tuseel before he landed him. The fish weighed 21 pounds and was three feet long. Meyers sold it to Fred Shoemaker and that gentleman served it to hig guests today. Last evening a Chinese lantern fell from the side porch and landed on the cellar door at the residence of James Gilmore, sr., on South Michigan street. The blaze soon ignited the cellar door but was discovered in time to prevent what might have proved a big fire. Steward K. Landis came home Saturday evening to spend the Fourth with his parents and friends in Plymouth. He returned to his work last evening. He said he enjoyed farm life. He is working for his uncle southeast of Mentone. Farm life and work is good recreation for beys who spend nine months of the year in school. From Wednesday's Daily. Lieutenant lt. I?. Oglesbee is now in Washington, I). C. Miss Trella Logan is attending the teachers' meeting at Washington, 1). C. Quarterly meeting at the M. K. church Saturday evening and Sunday. Everybody invited. EL 6. Thayer Is in Indianapolis attending a meeting of building com saittee of the Odd Fellows Oscar Simons drew the handsome new bookcase at the "Phoenix." No. 8481 was the lucky number The pension board was in session today and a number of applicants were examined for an increase in pension. An assault and battery case was tried before Justice Reeves yesterday. A plea of guilty was entered and the line stayed. Mr. and Mrs. W. ii. Outcalt, who v.fiited relatives in this city for the oast three weeks, left for their home in Ogden, Utah, yesterday. The commissioners have ordered the jail white washed and renovated Isaac Thomas has the contract and is putting in some good licks. Of course yellow river will never be dredged. It would be a good thing for Plymouth and make Yellow river one of the nicest streams in the country. John K. Inks, of North township, left Plymouth last night for Cedar Ranids, Iowa, for a short visit with relati and friends and also to attend a fst ..y reunion. It is now evident that if Hobson in tended to use the Merrimac as a cork tc Santiago harbor he ran it through the narrow neck into the bottle thereby permitting the contents to run out. Hut what an awful spill it was! Missen Laura, Lizzie and Carrie Boss left yesterday for Omaha and Beaver City, Nebraska, where they will visit Mrs. Charles Wade. On their return they will stop in Chicago and take a primary course in a business college. Much sympathy is expressed in Plymouth today for the young man who was shot last night by Gideon

Logan at Teegarden. Maudlin sym pathy is getting to be a chestnut. The young man got just what he deserved. At a time when Cerver was Sampson's prisoner, Ulanco ws asking Spain to remove him, for inefficiency. It would be interesting to know what Blanco wanted the Spanish Admiral to do. It would also be interesting if Blanco would do something more than talk. A meeting of the Marshall County Medical society will be held at the otlice of Drs. Horton A Aspinall on Thursday, July 14. lS'JS, at 1 o'clock p. in., at which I)r. Kaszer will read a paper ei

titled, The Differential Diagnosis of Liver Disease." Dr. Wahl will also read a paper. Walkerten Independent: It is reported as an actual fact that two men living between this p'ace and Tyner traded wives a few days ago. The wives seemed willing to be traded and each collected together certain pieces of household furniture that they prized and removed them to their newlv acquired domiciles. While you are complaining of the excessive heat of these scorching midsummer days pause to think of the condition of those brave fellows down there in lower Cuba amid climatic conditions of which we have little concep tion and subjected to a torridity to which the heat we are wont to c m plain of these days is mild and pleasant Don't kick about the weather. The difference between Spanish talk and action is amusingly shown by the following from a letter addressed to his superior by the commandant of one of the Cuban towns captured by Oen. Shatter's army : "1 am well fortified and prepared to resist all the forces the American pigs can bring against us." The writer ran oil before completing the letter, which was fouud on his desk by our troops. Now the time has come when ILK housewife who does much of her owr cooking or preserving, must often have her bands stained with the juice of berries, peaches, etc., and it may be well to remind her that the fumes of sulphur will remove most fruit stains from the lingers. Put a tiny lump of sulphur in a tin plate, pour on a little alcohol, and set it on lire. Hold the linger tips above the tlame and the discoloration will disappear. American troops in tropical climates are to have new duck uniforms. It is late to be thinking about it, of course, but thirty thousand of these uniforms will be delivered to the army within fifteen days, and this number will he supplemented until the armies in Cuba Porto Rico and the Philippines are supplied. It is the general impression of those who have seen the uniforms that if our soldiers can only succeed in drawing uniforms that tit they will not only be comfortably clad, but will present a handsome appearance. Prom Thursday's Dally. The German Baptists or Dunkards hold their annual harvest meeting live miles west of Plymouth on Priday, July 15th, llev. Wisong, of Nappanee, conducting the service. Kvery body invited to come with their baskets filed and stayallday. Meeting opens at 10:30 a. m .

There is a big strike over at the Marion glass works because the ice wagon failed to show up at the proper time. Effort! are being made to cool the boys off and get them back to work. Prof. x). Frank Redd and Prof. B. McAlpine will open their normal school in Kuhn's hall one week from next Monday. From present indications a large number of students will be enrolled. Yonsouf, the "terrible Turk," was a passenger on the French steamship that went down in midocean yesterday His name appears on the list of those who lost their lives.

It would be well for our readers to bear in mind the fact that the choicest toilet goods and perfumes as well as all kinds of sporting goods, -lishing tackle, croquet sets, base balls and gloves etc, are to be found at the People's Drug store on Eaporte street. This is the place to secure the best of everything in the drug line. 2w Pot some time the police have been rigidly enforcing the Nicholson law at Brazil and there have been a number of prosecutions. The saloonkeepers are preparing to retaliate and at a meeting they decided to demand a rigid enforcement of all Sunday laws and ordinance s. They assert that they will stop the sale of newspapers on the streets, close ivery stables, drug stores and meat shops stop the running of hack lines and will prevent the street car line from operating.

I he People of Madi ii rVepariag for Riot Civil War seni PowilMe- le HtriM ion f t 'rrvrra'i ileal finally Pcrtltted fa lie Pablintied- Spaia 1 rgvdte Immediately N not iate far Peace. London, July '.. The Madrid correspondent ot the Daily Telegraph, telegraphing Tuesday night, says. "Disorder is spreading among the military. The crowds in the streets are getting riotOUa, and everywhere signs are apparent that tne population is arming for civil war. Marshal Martinez Campos and the captain general of Madrid have held long consultations as to the uas uiid means of preserving order." An Associated Press dispatch from Madrid says: Seuor :agasta, the premier, has announced ollicially that Ad miral Cervera's squadron had been defeated, that the Almirante Oquendo was burned and the Infanta Maria Teresa sunk, and that Admiral Cervera hansel! is a prisoner of war. The dispatch containing the information has not yet heen fully deciphered , The Madrid correspondent of the Times says: "Diepatchea received from American sources describing the destruction of Admiral Cervera's squadron, winch the morning papers conoid ered wild exaggerations and consequently held back, have now been published in special editions. They are generally regarded as substantially true, and have produced a most pam ful impression among all classes, but there is perfect tranquility. J perceive no sympathy of dangerous popular excitement, ' The Madrid correspondent ot the Daily Chronicle reports that unusual precautit ns are being taken with a view to a possible rising in Spain. The Koine correspondent of the Daily Chronicle says: "The Pope, it is rumored, has telegraphed the Queen Regent begging her not to compromise the future ot the monarchy by refusing to treat for peace, which, after the heroism displayed by the Spanish navy, could not be otherwise than honorable.' At the same time the Pope cabled President McKinley, so it is rumored, appealing to the American generosity toward Au unfortuuate but chivalrous enemy. 1 tie canan foreign umce, however, discredits such rumors and denies that the powers have taken any action.' The Daily Chronicle says: We learn from a sure source that the Spanish government thinks it impossible to make peace now because to make peace at present would throw the balance ol power in Spain into the hands of the Carlists. The Madrid correspondent of the Standard says: The public is still In favor of prolonged resistance, but excitement is increasing among all classes, and strong precautions are being taken iu all the large towns where the garrisons are confined to barracks. The correspondent describes the irritation of the newspapers, which withheld the special reports as to the disaster to Cervera's squadron until the government'6 continuation had been received. A dispatch from Madrid dated 11:30 p. m. says: "'The Cabinet council tonight, after a short session, decided nol to open negotiations for peace, but to continue the war, with all risks, while a single soldier remains in Cuba. The government has no news as to the bombardment of Santiago and has cabled Governor General Planen for details ot the naval battle." COMPLETE VICTORY. ALL THE SHIPS OF ADMIRAL CERVERA'S FLEET DESTROYED. Fully l,aaa SpMtarda Taken Prisoners anil :t.0 Killed or Drowned Decks of Some of the Spanish ships Strewn with Dead. (War Bulletin.) Washington, .July 4.- At 11:25 tonight the navy department posted the appended tianslation of a cipher cablegram received from Commodore Watson. It is similar to that received to day from Admiral Sampson, but contains the additional information that 'AM Spaniards were killed ordrowntd, 160 wounded and 1,600 captured. Com modore Watson's dispatch follows: 'Tlayo Del Kste, July 3. "To the Secretary of the Navy, Washington, D. C: "At 9'JSO a. m. today the Spanish squadron, seven in all, including one gunboat, came out of Santiago iu column, and was totally destroyed within an hour, excepting the Cristobal Colon, which was chased forty live miles to the westward by the iiimander-in chief, Brooklyn, Oregon and Texas, surrendering to the Itrooklyn, but was beached to prevent sinking.
