R. after the conclusion of Congressman Brick's memorial addrees at Argos, Very few people know that pine apple plants art set in hill3 and planted in rows like corn and that there is only one apple on each stalk. It takes over a year for the plants to bear- and the life of each plant is thrae years. Judge Capipn has issued an order sending Fred Dolke to the reform school at Plainfield. It is the best thing that could be done for the b:y. He is a very bright little fellow and a few years in the school at Plainfield may make a man of him. R-3V, C. E, Weiss and John C. Kuhn went to Laporte tc attend the Corference of the Michigan District of thö German Evangelical Synod of North America. The conference is held from 5th to 10th of June inclusive, Mr. Kuhn is the delegate representing the congregation at Plymouth. Judge L. M. Ninde, a prominent lawyer of Fort Wayne since 1851 and with whom General Henry W. Lawton studied law, died at the hospital in that city Tuesday, aged 71. In the days of his prime he vr.s easily the most infludential lawyer in the city of Fort Wayne. Mr. and Mrs. Marion Koffel, who were married at Portland, Mills, Clinton county, Wednesday, as announced in the Evening News, arrived in this city Wednesday evening for a visit of a few days with Mr. Koffers relatives and friends.

The Delineator for July will be a magnificent number as is attested by advance sheets which have reached this office. The article on the Pan-American Exposition is illustrated with plates of three colors giving all the beautiful effects of artistic color results obtained in Buffad. Over 600,000 copies of the July edition will be issued end everybody ahould get one at the bookstores. , If Dowie is really Elijah come to earth again he certainly fhocld be willing to take the same chances Elijah of old did. But it is noticed that Mr. Dowie is not willing to leave the matter of his daily bread to tne ravens, but heists on the daily collection at all his meetings, and not enly that but insists on his de luded followers "chipping' in as the contribution box passes to the full limit at their ability snu sometimes more.

Sheriff Bondurant took Fred Dolke to the reform school at Plainfield Friday morning, A.J. Emerton left last week for Central Wisconsin in the interest of the Clizbe factory. Miss Emma Kreighbaum of Twin Lakes left Thursday morning for Elkhart where she has employment. Drs, Reynolds, Aspinall, Borton and Stevens performed an op9ration on George Weigle Friday for appendicitus. The public schools of Elkhart coun. ty will have no graduating exercises on account of the prevalence of smallpox, in that county. The county commissioners was at Bremen last week inspecting a bridge, and arranging for the construction of three more bridges in German township. Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell have returned to their home at Ottawa, Kansas, after six week's visit in this city at the home of W. W. Sponaler and other relatives. Mrs. Joseph Swindell left Thursday for Warsaw to attend the CaldwellOldfather nuptials which was held that evening. Miss Caldwell is a cousin of Mrs. Swindell. Miss L, E. Stout, formerly of this city, is worthy matron of the Eastern Star at Moberly, Mo and we see by the Moberly Democrat that she has been entertaining some of the chief officers of the order in Missouri. There is unquestionably considerable unfairness in the rules governing base ball. For instance; an umpire can steal the whole game, whereas, a player n aver has opportunity to steal more than a base. There should be some way to sort cf equalize matters, Judge Capron Thursday decided the Laporte water works case in favor of the city, The supplemental water works cost $125,000 and heavy property owners brought suit claiming that the city had exceeded the constitutional limit of indebtedness. The losers will carry the case to the supreme court. The profit of the government on coining copper is considerable. Cent coins consist of rive per cent of tin and zinc and ninety-five per cent, of copper, They cost the government about fortytwo cents a pound, and there are IIS in a pound, so that the treasury makes just Sl.OG on each pound coined. New Carlisle Gazette. The venerable Joeeph Ilu&h, now an inmate at the county farm, and who claims to have been born May 10, 1795, in New Jersey, and to have voted for President Madison girded up his loins today and started on a 11-mile tramp to New Carlisle, near which place he had resided about three score years. The Indianapolis NewsNsays Miss Edith Beck of Indianapolis, holds first place among the Indianapolis fishing colony. Last Mondav, on Lake Maxinkuckee. 6he hooked and successfully landed, unaided, a bass weighing seven pounds. The fish measured inches. The oldest inhabitants agree that this wa? the largest bass ever caught in the lake. The Pennsylvania house of representatives passed a bill to prohibit the sale to women of beer or other liquors to be carried from a 6a!oon in a bottle or other receptacle. The bill was styled anti-"growler" legislation,andthe author of the measure declared his purpose to be to put a stop to drunkenness among women and children, Maggie Matthewson sends us two Comanche. Indian Territory papers. A perusal of them gives us the impressiod that Comanche is a lively town for a fellow that loves excitement of the ''border" type, and also indicates that while there is much fine land in the reservation that will soon be opened to settlement, claims will not bo obtained without considerable difficulty and eome danger, A New York woman has welcomed back her husband after a desertion on his psrt of twe.ity-nine years. The chances are that most women in that length of timo would have forgotten all about having had such a husband, while it is eafe to eöy that there are some who would be willing to try the experiment if their present hnsbands would only get out of the way for a few years. Rooms E. F. G. and H, of the public schools gave a good entertainment Thursday evening. The principal scene was a fairy grotto where the fairy queen was sleeping watched by her attendants, There the flowers of good children are turned to gold and the mother of Karl and Anna is enabled to pay her rent to Peter Grimm. There were solos, duets, choruses and recitations. Frank B, Carey, Misses Emma Crowly, Mrs. Kleinschm'idth and Miss Teeters were the teachers. ' The Rochester Republican thinks that Mr. Henderson of Union township'' Fulton county, who stood by and tacitly assisted the men who whipped his wife, is hardly worthy of the name of husband. She was accused of having a vicious temper and of abusing her neighbors and her husband, but if air this is true it simply evidences f,he fact that she was mentaly unbalanced and not responsible for her acts or threats. And it is probable true that the disposition was cultivated and the cultivation was the result of her surroundings.

The Iowa Presbytery is discussing the question whether a Meson or Odd Fellow can be a christian or be admitted to the church, One delegate went so far ns to state that a member of neither ordor could go to heaven and another stated that it is wrong for a man to keep a secret from his wife.
