There were several prosperous citizens of Illinois in Rochester, yesterday, prospecting for the purchase of Fulton county farm lands, in the western part of the county.

One of those inveterate dead beats who take a paper several years without paying for it and then complacently order it stopped, thinking thereby to defraud the publisher, was nicely caught up by the Warsaw Indianian this week in a judgment for the full amount of the bill up to the date uit was brought, together with about $25 in costs. We extend thanks and congratulations to our Warsaw brethren for the good example. A report drifts down from Culver, Ind., to the effect that Frank J. Vincent, of this city, has just extracted from Lake Maxinkuckee what at first seemed to be a fresh water sea serpent, but which proved to be a gar K)ce of the kind, doubtless that led to the building of the exclamation "by gar' as t is said to be sixty inches long, and, according to sciles other than its own, weighs eighteen and one-half pounds.

The Mozart Entertainment, A small but appreciative and rather critical audience braved the heat Thursday evening to hear "Melusina'' rend?red by the ladies' Mozart club of Plymouth. The entertainment was an artistic it not a complete financial success. The 6tage was appropriately set for a forest 6cene and wa3 handsomely decorated with palms, ferns and blooming plants, Iced lemonade was served in the intermissions ancl everything was done that could contribute to the comfort of a eweltering audience. Besides the rendition of eo difficult and classic a musical composition as the charming cantata that occupied the greater part of the program, the feature of the evening, and indeed the musical event of the 6eason in Plymouth, was the debut before a general local audience of Miss Webb, by far the beat performer on the violin that. Marshall county has yet produced. Miss Webb is a daughter of the late Isaac Webb, of Polk township, .and her rendition of Schubert'e Serenade and de ßeriot's 9th Concerto was a revelation of ability and musical appreciation. The undertaking ot "Melusins'' was a very ambitious enterprise on the part of the Mcz&rt club, aa was made apparent in advance by a very happy outline of the cantata's story and musical features charmingly given by Miss Queen Cleaveland. The club, however, demonstrated the sincerity of its purpose to form and educate Plymouth's musical taste by the thoroughness of its preparation and the honesty with which the piece was worked out in all its details. The choral numbers were undoubtedly the be6t that our people have 'ever heard from local voices. Prof. Frank, of South Bend, who trained and directed this chorus, baa cause for congratulation that his efforts were so efficiently responded to. The solos were assigned to Mrs. Louis McDonald, Mrs. George H, Thayer, jr., Mrs. O. S. Tlnmberry. Miss Helen Dieher. Mies Marne Iloham, K, Frank Brooke and Rev, Üpson, and they carried their several parts well up to the j spirit of the music and to the satisfaction of the auditors. A flute solo by ' Prof. Frank in the first part of the pro gram was eplendidly executed. The ladies ot the club, it is to be hop ed, will persevere in their excellent work and it is also to be hoped thit our citii zens will realize the value of such ef forts and will give the club the fall measure of encouragement that it deserves.
