Yesterday morning John Shirer, of South Bend, met with a serious accident in which he shot away a considerable poition of his right hand and wrist. The accident occurred while he was hunting rabbits in the woods south of town. It seems that he placed the bntt end of his gun against a log and

the barrels. rhu other ban el

loaded and, naturallv, when the gun

slipped, it poured f rth its discharge with the above unfortunate result. The phjbician in charge is ur certain -is to whether the wound will necessitate the amputation of the hand. Judge Hess hs returned from his visit t' the täte fair and is enthusiastic in his praise lor that great institution. Half of the farmers in Marshall cuun'y, he thinks, should have attended it. The live stock and po.iltry exhibitions were something extraordinary. Specimens of live stock from every part of the great plain were there for examination. Draft horses and race horses were I med up in endless numbers. The poultry show, too, was exceedingly line. Night watchman Pontius has some interesting experiences during his vigils

at the Basktt factory. ():.e nlgnt. lie was approached by three villainous looking fellows who proposed to force their way patt him and take possession of the factory. He had no revolver but through tact and skillful bluffing he frightened them away. At another time he discovered a thiet who had stolen several boards from ore of the lumberyards and was carrying them home. The thief proved to be a well known resident and an acquaintance of Mr. Pontius himself.

Assorting Fruit. "If farmers only knew it," said a grocerymau the other day, "they could pet much better prices for fruit products if they would take the trouble to aseort it and market it !n better ehape. Apples ought to be aborted and each variety kept in teparafe receptacles, but instead

of this all kinds are thrown into sacks

and it is impossible to grade them up suitable for market. A man brought ripe plums to the store the other day and when he opened the 6ack they were mashed into a pulp and covered with llour. This is no may to market fruit." The same may Le said in rt gard to the marketing of stock, wheat, potatoes and in fact all other products of the farm. Fancy articles bring fair prices.

sault was committed without ju6t prov

ocation. The physicirn who dressed Fitzgerald's wounds found one side of his face badly bruised, with a deep cut in one place. The report has been current for some time that cruelty was being practiced at the county asylum and the charge made by Fitzgerald is likely to result in an investigation being made.

victim of some very slanderous re

marks. IIö had the doctor arrested and

Split ill the Catholic Legion. A movement was made by represen tatives of the Catholic Henevolent le

gion in Indiana, who met in Fort Wayne Sunday afternoon, to secede

from the National Council and form a

state organization. This question

comes up largely through the fa-t that the assessments for deaths in other

parts of the country are three times as

great as in this state. The Indiana people will endeavor to get a better class of risks by confining the order to

this state and thus lessen the cost of in surance to the members.

Landlord and Tenant. A decision recently handed down by the supreme court says that a landlord can compel his tenant to come to his otlice and pay rent. He need not look up his tenant, but without doing so can sue and get judgment against him. A landlord telephoned his tenant in Plym
