WM.O. HENDRICKS, XkUiev a4 Proprietor. O TTICS n BieseU's Block, Corner Center and LaPorte Streets. ntsrM at the Plymontb, Indian, Post Office a SUJ3CRIPTION: One Year f2.00; Six Month fl.OO; JT&rje Months 50c, deliyered at auy post office. If paid on e year in adv ance, $1 .50 .- Plymouth Ind., May 30, 1901. A new French rifle ia reported to tire nineteen bullets every time the trigger ia pulled. It is lucky for the Britieh that this gun was not invented in time for Oom Paul's purpose. Tammany is shaping up matters for the municipal contest next fall. In three years it has increased salaries 323,000,000 and 46,000 persons are cow carried on the city pay rolls. The South Bend Daily Tribune was 23 years old Tuesday. It is one of the best daily papers in Indiana and has the largest circulation of any daily paper north of Indianopolis. , Now tbat the supreme court of Missiseippi has decided that the round bale cotton corporation is a trust, Chairman Jones is in a peculiar position as national chairman of a party that denounces monopolies. Next November the electors of Greater New York will be called on to fill 183 offices, and the mayor then chesen can, by removals and appointments, fill as he pleases during the first six months of his administration 102 important places. The battleship Ohio, which was christened at San Francisco last week, will be the "pride of the American navy" until supplanted by some newer one. ahe is forty feet longer than the Oregon and her entire equipment is of the most approved kind. When she gets her 'men behind the guns" she will be the greatest fighting machine afloat. The London Telegraph recently contained this significant statement: America ha9 superseded our agriculture, beaten our coal output, left us far behind in production of iron and steel, and has passed us at last in the total volume of exports. She has only commenced the final onslaught on our carrying trade, and with these beginnings we may wonder if such thingB are done in the green tree what will be done in the dry." The Bourbons of Alabama who wanted to shut out Gen. Wheeler from their constitutioual convention on the ground that he is a Republican are putting ridicule on themselves and their party. Their only ground f r saying that Wheeler is a Republican is that he fought well in Cuba and the Philippines. If the Alabama mossbacks are willing to set this up as a test of Republicanism Gen. Vheeler has no right tb complain. The same test will put a few other Democrats on the Republican side. A letter from Major General V7heaton now " in the Philippines, to a friend in Chicago says that resistance to the United States has practically terminated throughout the islands. He adds: "We have been .exceedingly fortunate, and have treated the people of these islands with great humanity and a lenience hitherto unknown in war." General Wheaton is probably better informed regarding the situation tb?n some people in this country who have been talking differently. Commodore Brown, who epent a short time in the Philippine islands several years ago and who is now a resident of Indianapolis, onctj upon a time said that the climate in that part of the world was simply unendurable to anAmerican. The Philippines are located next door to hell,,, he remarked shortly after Admiral Dewey had smashed the Spanish fleet at Manila. In this drastic view many of tne soldiers who lately returned from the Philippines do not concur. They say the climate there is simply delightful, and that no difficulty is experienced by Americans to live there, provided proper care is exercised as to eating and drinking. We are great users of coffee. Its supply is a reminder that the islands that we have taken under our control are bound to make themselves felt on the JC990Qercial si;e of things. The bureau tt statistics of the treasury department says that these island possessions are capable of supplying all the coffee needed by this country. The coffea of the Philippines is of a fine quality, and may be raised and marketed with large profits. Hawaiian coffee is reported also aj vsry fine, and there has been do diGculty in marketing the surplus that has come from the cultivation there in the last few years. Coffee is the chief product of Porto Rico. It commands high prices in European markets, It is said by thoee most familiar with it to be without a' superior. The capabilities of our island pocceccion9 as coffee plantations point to a tera development in this trada under our fte?, whether under our constitution or not.

The Cuban constitutional convention has accepted the Piatt amendment and

will append it to the constitution. The expellecTWeet point cadets are nt getting enough sympathy to make them feel that they have fallen in a noble cause. They might as well think the matter over and conclude to allow the faculty to run the school. The law of the last legislature of Kan 8a making it a misdemeanor to steal a ride on a train has caused the hobo army to leave that state. A few years ago Kansas was the paradise of tramps, but this law and an avowed purpose of the authorities to compel them to woik in the harvest fields have caused them to leave. The mystery of the day in railroad cir cles is the puipose of George Gould. His movements in stocks seem to indicate intentions to get one or more eastern out let for his western systems, but railroad men say tbat if the Gould interests desire a through line to the Atlantic an entirely new road from Pittsburg can now be buiit for less money than would be required to buy control of either the Lackawanna or the Erie. On the main issue involved in the case decided by the supreme court, Monday, as to the constitutionality of the 15 per cent Porto Rico tariff, the court stood 5 to 4. The justices who held theForaker act to be constitutional are: Brown, Gray, Shiras. White and McKecLa. Of opposite cpinion are: Chief Justice Fuller, Harlan, Brewer an J Peckham two Democrats and lo Republicans. Of the five justices who voted together White is the only Democrat. He was a former senator from Louisiana and was appointed supreme judge by President Cleveland, A Washington telegram says: Natives of all the dependencies of the United States are now serving as soldiers and sailors under the Ameriean flag. Com mander Seaton Schroeder, governor of Guam, has reported to the navy department the enlistment of seven natives for service as oarsmen in the governor's launch. Other natives will be enlisted in the navy as they are needed. Rearadmiral Re my was recently authorized to enlist 500 Filipinos, and Commander Tilley, of the Tutuila naval station, re ports tbat be has enlisted sixty natives of Tutuila for service as policemen, A battalion of the Porto Ricans was enlistep and organized by the army more than a year ago and is still in the service. Native sailors and soldiers receive half the pay of Americans. The great discoveries of oil in Texas have caused some alarm among the coal men. The Pittsburg Dispatch says that the fuel oil from the new Texas oil fields promises to revolutionize the coal trade of thr entire tier of southern states wiihin the next few years and the Monongahela river conrolidated coal and coke company will probably be deprived of much of its great tonnage in the South and Southwest. Mr. McDowell, one of the most expert oil men in the United States, in declaring his opinion of the situation, is reported as saying that the Beaumont oil could be delivered at New Orleans and the lower Mississippi at from 60 to 65 cents a barrel, and that three and one-half barrels of the oil were equal to one ton of the best Pittsburg coal, and that the industries of theMissiseippi valley, Southern Louisiana and the gulf ports would eventually use oil instead of coal for fuel, All depends, of course, on the duration of the oil flow that may or may not be continuous. For the benefit of tbe syndicates that are trying to corner the coal supply it is to be hoped that oil fuel will be a successful competitor. MARRIED. II rand Ige Schrooder. David H. Brundige and Miss Jeeeie G. Schroeder were united in marriage Tuesday evening May 23, 1901, by Rev. O. S. Thornberry. The wedding was solemnized at the home of the bride's parents, Mr, and Mrs. Peter Schroeder in the west part of town in the presence of a large number of relatives and friends, after which an elegant supper was served. The bride has been a resident ofPlymouth all her life and Mr. Brundige was born and raised in this vicinity. He now has a good position as a wood worker in South Bend and the happy couple will make their home in that city. Both are excellent young people who have the congratulations and best wishes of many friends. peafness C&npot be Cured by local applications, äs they Cannot reach tbe diseased portion or tne ear. There is only one way to cure deafness and tbat is by constitutional remedies. Deafness ia caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube, When this tube gets inflamed' you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taker, out and this tube restored to its normal condition, bearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

Farmers Institute. The institute at Argoa Tuesday and this forenooon was a complete success The intelligent, thinking farmer received more food for thought than ever before at a meeting of the kind. In the forenoon of yesterday the ball was opened by a lecture by Dr. S. W. Gjuld on the "Invisible Friend of the Farmer."

He was followed by

Rev. F. L. Austin on "Elements of Real Value in Manhood.' The speech of Mr. Austin was interesting and well received by the large audience which packed and over flowed Sarber hall. It ia impossible to give even a brief synopsis of the speech in the space allotted us for this article This forenoon Mr. Hussleman spoke on "Home Sanitation" and was followed by John A. McFarlin on ""Feeding and Breeding Hogs as a Source of Revenue on the Farm," Mr. McFarlin is well known in this county and any remarks concerning his treatment of his subject would be superfluous. The exercises were interspersed by re citations and with the most enchanting music by Davis Orchestra. All in all it was the most successful institute ever held in the county and many attendants remarked that they never attended a better anywhere. Next year the people may expect even more interesting sesrions. Potatoes Wanted. We want 5,000 bushels of potatoes at Vmall's Grocery, bring them in. 2Stl Weidner Leffert.
