Several accidents were narrowly averted last nignt. (Jlen Cressner's father promised that 6hould he win first prize in the Fiddler's contest, he 6hould have $10. Glen is just 810 richer today.

Dr. Joseph (J, Hogers, superintendent of Longcliff, the northern Indiana hospital for the insane, announced yesterday that L. C. Baum, a patient from Porter county, was a victim of small pox. Baum was confined in ward D, with abcut 30 other patients, until two days ago, when he was removed to the hospital and later taken to a tent half a mile from the buildings. The fiddler's contest last evening, was attended by a large audience. Only the fir6t part of the evening's perform ance could be called high-class. It was worthy of Mattering compliment. The latter part of the programme was amusing and certainly arose to anything anticipated. All sorts of unique jigs and evidently several altogether original selections were poured forth from the mazy bows in many a "turn and winding bout, and linked sweetness long drawn out." City Attorney-K. II. Oglesbee has delicately determined whether the Van Felt addition in Northwest Plymouth is a part of the city or not. For years this has been a question confronting our councilmen and they have been bothered upon innumerable occasions when this section of land was concerned in their acts. Mr. Oglesbee finds that in 1884 an attempt was made to vacate that portion of the platt, which it seems was originally mapped out as belonging to this city. The attempt to vacate the platt in '81 was a failure because the lawyer then in charge proceeded upon the plan for vacating portions of towns. Plymouth was a city then. The method for yacating portions of a city differs materially from that of vacating towns. Hence the vacation was, entirely illegal and the Van Felt addition remains indisputably a part of Plymouth. from Monday's Dally.

ductor, said after receiving his fatal in- j juries Thursday night at Walkerton. The Winona Beading Circle held a meeting at the home of Miss Mary Southworth Saturday night. It was lairly well attended and was successful. On the next regular meeting night it will meet with D. F. Hedd. While playing around the yard yesterday, David the twelve-year-old 6on of Alva Morns ran a pitch-fork prong through his foot, producing an ugly wound. Through the aid of prompt and ellicient medical attendance, it is probable that no bad effects will follow otherwise than those brought about by the wound itself. A IIOKItlllLi: ACCIDENT. The Little CliiM of Lincoln C.Iek Falls In Cistern hii1 ia Drowned. Thursday evening about C o'clock, the eighteen months-old son of Lincoln Giek, fell into Fred Appleman's cistern. When found and brought to the surface life had departed. The accident occured in the following manner. Mr. Giek's daughter Louie had been sent to Fred Appleman's house to get some milk, and her little brother, it seems, toddled after her. While the milk was being poured into her bucket, the little boy ran around the house. His absence was unnoticed at first, but when the 6ister was ready to return home and called for him they became painfully aware that he could not be found. The search became more exciting at every minute and finally some of the neighbors and those passing by joiaed in. It was one of these, Wm. Nichols, who first peered into the cistern and made the horrible discovery that the baby had drowned. As scon as it could be brought to the surface a doctor was sent for, but his services were unneeded, for life had Med beyond recall. The people of Plymouth sympathize deeply with Mr. Giek and family in their sad bereavement. The funeral was held Saturday at the United Brethren church. Weber-Kooiitz Marringe.
