' The Plymouth Republican, said to "be the oldest paper in Marshall county, celebrated its golden anniversary a few days ago. Several improvements were noticed as a reminder of the event. Warsaw Union. Trade at home and always speak well of your town. That is the way to boom. Hon. Samuel Parker, of Plymouth, is to succeed the late Judge X. O. Boss as solicitor for the Panhandle railroad in Indiana. It has been the understanding for sometime that Senator Parker was to succeed Judge Ross in this capacity. "When the appointment is formally made it will probably become necessarv for Senator Parker to move to Logansport. He is admirably fitted for this important and verv desirable position. South Bend Times. PLYMOUTH'S BOULEVARD. In an article reproduced in this pa per rom the arsaw Union the writer thereof gave his impression of -outh Michigan street as it is viewed by passing travelers on the railroad and suggested the debt of gratitude owing to the person who inspired the planting of those rows of noble maples that are now so attractive. A similar thought was expressed by General Harrison a few vearsasro. It was when the ex-president was on one of his campaign speaking tours. His special train passed slowly across Michigan street and Col. B. B. F. Peirce called the attention of the party to the broad avenue stretching away to the south between the lines of arching trees, then ablaze with the glowing colors of autumn. A Plymouth man in the coach was asked how it happened that the trees were planted so regularly and were of such uniform size and kind, apparently indicating the design of one mind, and he replied that A. L, "Wheeler, the father of Colonel Peirce 's wife, had inspired the work. General Harrison said that it was one of the finest streets in Indiana and that it had great possibilities of beautification, adding that the magnificent vista made by the parallel rows of fullgrown maples was in itself a nobler monument to Mr. Wheeler than could be raised in marble or granite. But few residents of Plymouth, perhaps, appreciate what a magnificent avenue they possess in South Michigan street, with its great width, its smooth surface, its handsome lawns and residences and, above all, its double rows of shade trees that are excelled nowhere and seldom equalled. Still less, probably, do the people realize that with a very little cost, in addition to that of paving, the street can be made into a boulevard of striking beauty, one that no city in the state ontside of the few larger ones could equal in years of effort. The new brick pavement is to be laid forty feet wide between curbs" thus leaving a very wide space between the curb and the present sidewalk line, which, as it now exists, is not leveled or terraced with any approach to uniformity, and the walks are of diverse material in various conditions as to repair. This space, increased on each side of the street by the narrowing of the roadway in paving, presents a most valuable opportunity for beautifying the ' avenue cheaply and permanently. By removing the walks to or near the curb and putting them on a new grade conforming to that of the pavement, the walks to be of stone or cement and the space thus gained to be graded, leveled or terraced with the dirt that can be had free of cost from the street excavation, a beautiful esplanade on each side would be formed, containing a double row of trees and amounting in effect to that much of an addition to each owner's front lawn. Besides the added beauty of such a plan and the increased lawn space there would be the further advantage of greater privacy in the houses resulting from the removal of the stream of travel to a greater distance from the front door. : We Did Not Bite. The story going - the rounds of the local : press to the effect that Fred ova'aski, a 16-year-old Polish lad living two miles south of Bourbon, was dragged to his death by a colt he had lassoed while playing Buffalo Bill, is another whole cloth special furnished by a penny-a-liner, who, by his work, Is giving Bourbon a very undesirriile reputation. If the newspapers of this section wish to publish nothing but the news they will reprint no special emanating from Bourbon. Bourbon Iews llirror.

WANTED A BOY

Advertised and One Fell Into His Lap Before the Paper Came Out. A gentleman desiring to employ a boy stopped at a newspaper office on his wav to the theatre and left an ad vertisement for the morninjr issue stating his want. During the per formance a boy fell into his lap from the gallery above. The story is far surpassed by one that our frantic daily cotemporary relates. Last Thursday it advertised for some public-spirited citizen to instal a town clock, wholly oblivious to the opportunity presented by the new Pythian building in which it as serts some sort of an interest, and it suggested such ridiculous locations as the river bridge and others. The next day it learned that its ad had been "answered in a practicle (sic) manner" and gravely proceeded to tell how, to-wit, by the adoption months before of a design for the Masonic Temple in which a clock was included, as every citizen of Flym outh vlio had any interest in the mat ter knew long ago! In other words the ad was answered long before it was published, an example of "in rluence" that will be hard to match In contemplating this remarkable case one is led to wonder why "parties desiring dirt" required 04 ads to move G4 loads from the little hole the queer little man has been digging over on Michigan street. AUTOMOBILE GUNS An Experimental Expedition That Will Probably Visit This City Soon. Maj. B. P. Davidson, of the Northwestern military academy atllighland Park, 111., will leave Chicago within a few days with two automobile steam gun carriages, mounting Colt automatic rapid-fire guns, on a trip to "Washington, carrying a message to General Miles from the army head quarters in Chicago. His companions will be students of the academv and the object is to test such vehicles as adjuncts to the military service. These gun carriages were designed and built by the students themselves in the manual training department of the academy and the trip laid out, especially the mountain part of it, will give them a severe trial. It will be recalled that a similar attempt made last summer under the "same auspices resulted in failure because of some defect in the tires. The expedition will probably pass through Plymouth, taking the" Michigan road from this point to Indiana polis, and in that case it will replenish its store of gasoline and other supplies here. GREEN GOODS FAKE Those Who Bite Are Swindlers at Heart and Deserve no Pity. The green goods swindlers are again scattering their confidential "circulars" over Laporte county. They do this about once a year and from their persistency it would seem probable that they still find men dishonest enough and ignorant enough to fall into their trap. It is the same old thing of offering to sell greenbacks "printed from a genuine government plate" at very cheap rates. Some times when they think the victim is particularly ignorant or dishonest they will inclose a genuine $1 greenback as a specimen of the work they do and the "goods" they, will deliver. The fool victim usually sends what money he can raise to buy this money, and that is the last he ever hears from it. People who are swindled in this way are not entitled to sympathy, because at heart they are just as dishonest as the men who play them, and they deserve to be taught a lesson. Michigan City Despatch. Figuring on Supplies. The various county officers are now preparing their requisitions to be submitted to the county council which meets 'in annual session Tuesday, Sept. 2. Auditor Miller is now engaged in preparing the requisition for himself and for the county, commissioners. All requisitions must be filed early in August. State Forester's Work. John P. Brown, of Connersville, Ind., secretary of . the Indiana Forestry association and of the International Society of Arboriculture, is attracting attention in the east by his effort in behalf of an organization for the protection of forest trees. The Boston Transcript of Monday contains a long editorial indorsing his work and speaking of its value. Mr. Brown is urging the general planting of the catalpa because of its rapid growth and the early merchantable quality of its timber.

WASHINGTON STATE.

lb Midsummer Climate and its ik Fir Trees. Gigan Mrs. James E. Houghton has received a letter from her sister in the state of Washington, dated July 17, containing much that is of interest concerning that distant country. Speaking of weather conditions at Arlington, her home, she says: "I know that vou are nearlv suffocating there at Plymouth. Here everything is just lovely, so fresh and green and not a sunstroke in the whole state. The days are balmy and bright and at night we sleep under a comfort, sheet and spread and are just right. It would make you open your eyes wide to see the boom on the Pacific coast. Everything is just humming with prosperity." Enclosed with the letter was a newspoper clipping giving an account of a gigantic fir, cut near Arlington for the forestry, exhibit at BiüTalo. The tree measured 15 feet 5 inches in diameter at the stump and 48 feet in circumference. The first limb snransr 150 feet from the ground and the tree scaled 75,000 feet of lumber, log meas ure, the largest growth of the kind known in that state. It was hollowed out and is used for the Washington headquarters at the Pan-American exposition, being capable of seating 35 people in a circle around the periphery. DOESN'T LIKE IT. Congressman Shively Speaks of the Ohio Convention. B. F. Shively, ex-congressman and the leader of the northern Indiana democracy, has expressed himself with reference to the Ohio convention. :'It appears io r.ie, ne says, mat a a . . grievous mistake was made by the democratic convention of Ohio in cut ting loose from William Jennings Bryan in an effort to bring the party wings together. Abuse of Colonel Bryan and his nation of friends bv hose professing to be democrats, but who have co-operated with republi cans during the past few years, will never cement the democratic party to bolters.

New YoitK, July G.-After forty years of married life, in which they never separated for a day, and during which time they had but ore quarrel, Joseph Schwad and his wife have decided that they must separate. Both are now over sixty years of age and aie wealthy. The question of who ate certain sausages has so split the family that the wife has asked the supreme court to gnre her a decree of separation from her husband. The husband said he was willing that she should have her docree, but objected to the amount of alimony asked. Wilhelm a Peacemaker. London, July 26. "The rumor as to early peace negotiations which pervaded the house of commons for some days," says the Daily Express, "has' taken the more definite form that Em, peror Wilhelm is soon to assume the role of peacemaker. Mr.Kruger and his advisers are reported as having empowered the Kaiser to act for the Boers, and he is considered willing to take the initiative in order to popularize Lis relations with the German people who disapprove his friendship for Great Britain. Something apparently is on foot, whether Empeor Wilhelm is in it or not." Suffering at. Princeton. Princeton, Ind., July 6. Mrs. Emma Benwood, seventynine years old, is dead, heat prostration being the cause. She was found unconscious on the floor and lived but an hour. She was born in London, and was a pioneer resident.' There were three other prostrations here yesterday, but no other fatalities. . Cornea mad tcMket th h&Iz. ' 1'romotei taxunut rrowth. ir-vtr ran i -o enj I Hair to lt "$ fjiar il Color.

INSANE AND DESPERATE

He Returns from Insane Asylum to Kill . the Men on whose Testimony he was Incarcerated. Leavenworth, Kan., July25 Michael Kelly, an insane man, yesterday at the office of the Robert Garrett Lumber company, in the business district, shot six persons, killing one, probably fatally wounding another, and more or less seriously wound ing four others. He was himself finally killed by a policeraan,whö vainly tried to overpower him. Kelly had lived in . Leavenworth for years and at different times had engaged in small business enterprises. He was eccentric, and during the presidential campaign in 1S9G lost his mind entirely. At that time he was arrested for creating a disturbance and later threatened to kill John R.Garrett. He was arrested and adjudged insane, Garrett and four others testifying against him. After a year in the Topeka asylum Kelly was released. He had been acting queerly again and he had declared he would kill the five men who sent him to the asylum. Almost dai ly for two weeks past he has been practicing shooting with a revolver at the Fort Leavenworth ranjre. Tuesdav nierht he drank heavily. Yesterday shortly after 12 o'clock he appeared at Garrett's office, which is situated on the ground floor, at the corner of Sixth street andCherokse avenue. and without warning shot Gar rett as he sat at his desk. Garrett feU from his chair and into the doorway, when Kelly deliberately fired four shots more into the prostrate form. Garrett was shot once in the neck, in the left breast, through the liver, and twice in different portions of the body. Leaving his victim for dead, Kelly ran fifty yards to the rear of the company's lumber yard and began re - j loading his revolver. - j Presently he returned to the ; ofiice to find Dr. McGee, who had been attracted by the shoot ing, bending over Garrett, level ing his revolver on the window sill, Kelly took deliberate aim at the physician from the sidewalk and fired. The bullet struck McGee in the back at the spine, and he toppled over'near where Garrett lay. Then -followed an exciting street fight between the madman and policemen who came to the scene. Kelly, flourishing his revolver, dashed through the lumber yard. He met Ike Healer, a laborer, and shot him in the hand. A few yards farther on he encountered Sergeant Dodge." The two exchanged shots as they ran. One bullett from Kelly's revolver struck Dodge in the neck, but not before that officer had shot him in the shoulder. Kelly kept on running and was soon confronted by Detective McDonald and Policeman Falthager. McDonald dropped Kelly with a bullet in the neck. Dodge raised his revolver, but it failed to work, and catching up with the murderer, he crushed his skull with the weapon. Kelly sank to the ground and was carried to the station in an unconscious condition.dy ing soon after his arrival there. Garrett never regained consciousness and died an hour after being taken to the hospital. Dr. McGee is suffering intensely, and it is believed he cannot recover. Dodge's wound is not considered fatal, while the wounds of the others are slight. Earthquake in Nevada. Salt Lake, Utah, July 27. A section of seventy-five miles wide through the Nevada desert from Death, as . far west as Carlin, experienced a series of heavy earthquake shocks at 2:20 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The vibrations generally were from north to south, and at one or two points lasted for fully five seconds ' At Elko, Nev. , the shock was unusually severe. The highschool building; a big new krick edifice, was badly cracked by the violence of the vibrations, and other buildings were slightly damaged-: The earthquake was followed by heavy rains.

NEWPORT SHELLED

City Hall Struck by a Bursting Projectile from Heavy Gun. Newport, R. I., July 25. While heavy gun practice was going on at Fort Adams yesterday afternoon several pieces of a shell went whizzing up one of Newport's streets, bent on destruction, but luckily no serious damage was done. About 5 o'clock those in the vicinity of the city hall heard a whizzinp sound in the air. which was followed by the falling of a limb of a tree in front of the public buliding, and then a piece of the projectile was seen to graze the side of the city hall, making n cut in the stone as clean as a chisel could have done. At the same time a tree a little farther up the street was struck by arother piece of the projectile. The piece that struct the city hall struck just beneath the window of the office of the board of health. On inquiry at the fort it was learned that firing was being done with the ten-inch disap pearing guns that guard the entrance to Xarragansett bay. When told that the city hall had been struck one of the officers at the fort said that it was impossible that a shell used by them could have burst, as no bursting charge was used. The whole affair, therefore, is a mystery. That the pieces of shell came from the direction of the harbor is evident to those who have seen the cut on the city hall. There had been more or hss saluting from the warships in the harbor all the afternoon, but there was none being dene at the time. Thi evening a piece of shell was found, and looked like part o f a one-pounder. I Siiyer Leaf Flour I Z Best-$l.80 per hundred. Zehner's Mill ?

endf Old-fashioned Training Its Strong and Weak Points. The strong point of the old-fashioned training was the stress laid upon morality and virtue. "Be p-ood and vou'll be happy," was the common precept set before the growing child. But as the girl grew up lo maidenhood she was often sorely puzzled to reconcile those past teachings with her present condiiion. one was gooa. iter soul was pure as the lillies of her rrard en. TTpr heart was undefiled. And yet she was desperatly unhappy by reason of physical ailments common to women. This was the weak side of oldfashioned training: It ignored the needs and requirements of the body. All its effort Mas to guide the heart and mind. The body might stumble along anyhow, and it generally did. "Many a sweet-faced, modest-minded young girl has had her first doubts of the goodness of Providence come in through the door of physical suffering. "Why must I suffer in this way?" she asks, w Why does my back ache, my head throb and my side pain, so that I am fain to creep away into a darkened room and forego the pleasures which belong to my season of life?" NO AXSWER COMES as a rule to these questions. The young woman looks around and sees scores of similar sufferers. She is told it is a part of the burden laid upon women, and she shapes her shoulders to her heavy load. This is all a mistake. Proper training, proper physical care would many times prevent these miserable conditions. But in any case, however distressing the present condition, it can be cured by the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, if it is a disease curable by medicine. " I write a few lines to thank 3-oa for your advice and grand remedies, to which I owe my health, and perhaps my life,w says Miss Flora I. Greer, of 107 Howe Street, Akron, Ohio. "My trouble started during my childhood, but did not prove serious until 1S93, when I met with an accident caused by a horse running away. From that time I did not see a well day. I suffered at every monthly period with terrible headache, irritation of the spine and pains in my heels so I could not bear them resting on the softest pillow. What I suffered pen could never describe. I had soreness through my tips and ovaries all the time and constant backache. Was afraid to be alone, imagined that every one hated me, and everything looked like a mountain. One doctor would tell me one thing ailed, me, another would say something altogether different, but they only relieved me. I then wrote you in April.

The use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has brought health to thousands of hopeless women. If you are sick it will almost surely bring health to you. In all the hundreds of thousands who have used "Favorite Prescription" for womanly ills, only two in every nundrea have failed of a perfect and permanent cure. And even these two in every hundred have been benefited, their pains eased, their burdens lightened, their lives made happfer. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription establishes regularity, dries enfeebling and unhealthy drains, heals inflammation and ulceration and cures female weakness. From the first change ot life, when the girl becomes a woman to the 'i " Godsend to women" as a preservative of health and a cure for womanly ills. "Your letter just received," writes Miss Rose Kilfether, of 43 West Sharnnarlr Rr flT-ma 'S town, Philadelphia, Pa. wVTords fail to express how thankful I am to you for your advice. I must confess that for the length of time I have been using your medicine I have found it to be the most wonderful and best remedy for female troubles that I ever have tried. Sorry I did not know of your Favorite Prescription' years ago, but will gladly tell my friends who are suffering, of your wonderful medicine." There is no alohol in " Favorite Prescription" and it is entirely free from opium, cocaine and all other narcotics. Sick and ailing women are invited to consult .Dr. Pierce, by letter, free. All correspondence held as sacred and womanly- confidences guarded bv the same strict professional privacy which is observed in the personal consultations of Dr. Pierce and his staff (numbering nearly a score of phvsicians) at the Invalids' Hotel and 'Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. It sometimes happens that the dealer tempted by the little more profit paid by less successful preparations, will trv to press a substitute upon the customer, claiming that "it is just as good as Pierce's." It is well to remember at such a time, that the claims of superiority made for Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription do not rest on mere words, but upon cures. Thousands of weak women made strong and sick women made well testify to its superiority over other put-up medicines for women. THE BIBI.E OF TUE BODY, ' is a title which has been aptly applied to Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser. In plain English it points the way to womanly health and aapp. ness, and fully discusses and illuminates those great and grave questions which involve the well-Deing of women. This great work, containing 1008 large pages, and over seven hundred illustrations, sent free on receipt of stamps to pay expense of mailing only. For the volume bound in durable cloth send 31 one-cent stamps, or only 21 stamps for the book in paper-covers. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce. Buffalo, N. Y.
