Full

Attendance Drawn by Pay Late Laws,

Under

The Marshall county teachers' institute was opened at the court house

Monday under the managment ofCoun-

ty Superintendent Marks. The attendance was good, the new law provid

ing for the payment of teachers who

attend institutes proving a great incentive. The regular routine of work was gone through with during the day with much interest. This evening in the court room there, will be a debate among the teachers on the subject of "The Advantages and Disadvantages of School-teaching. "

The second day of the largest educational institute ever held in this county was marked by earnestness and enthusiasm drawn out hv the excellent program. Professors Curry and Mutchler, of the State Normal school, talked on "Reading" and "Nature Study" respectively, Prof. Ilahn,

gave instruction in the study and teaching of history.

Mr. Dickinson does not contemplate embarking in the grocery trade and probably represented or protected other parties in making the purchase. The stock inventoried $1,800.

As the season for inclement weather approaches, when mud and slush will prevail, the residents of that part of Plymouth commonly known as Johnstown are setting their minds on having a sidewalk from Michigan street to the Jefferson street bridge, their preference being for the south side of the street. It cannot be denied that such a walk would add much to the comfort and convenience of m?ny citizens. .

The places at the council table

were all occupied at the regular meet

ing Monday night except that of Dr.

Reynolds, who was at the bedside of Amasa Johnson. After the reading

and approval of the minutes of the

two previous meetings the clerk pre

sented a petition, signea by a ianc

number of south side residents, askin

for a water main on Walnut street from South to Pierce street and thence west. There is a large territory in

that section of the city that is now

deprived of the benefits and protection

of the public water supply. The pcti

tion was referred to the committee on

water works.

A petition was read asking for a sewer on Washington street from the

Vandalia R. R. to the Walnut street

sewer and it was referred to the com mittee on sewers and drains.

The clerk reported the execution of

a contract with the Lake Erie R. R

for supplying locomotives with water

from the public mains.

The citv school board reported its

levy for school taxes for 1902 as fol lows:

Tuition on the $100,

Special School Tuition, on the poll. Special school, " . Library, J of one cent.

The matter was postponed to the

next meeting of the council. The city treasurer reported a balance on hand In all fundsof $3,909.59.

Bills were allowed aggregating $864.-

71, leaving a balance of $3,044.88.

It was agreed by the council, and

the street commissioner was so directed, that at the earliest opportunity the Fifth street ditch shall be com-

pletcd to Jefferson street. This, it is

believed, will relieve the new Linkenhelt elevator of a surplus of flood

water that now finds an outlet along

the Lake Erie railway. Sidewalks were ordered under the new ordinar.ee requiring them to be constructed of cement or stone as follows: Rev. Showley, on Walnut St. Wm. Poor, on Walnut St. J. E. Houghton, on Walnut St. H. II. Bonham,on Walnut St. Mrs. Easterday, on Walnut St. Mrs. Mary Weckerle, on Pearl St. Magdalena Hersher, on South St. ' Dr. I. Bowers, on Madison St. Mrs. Anna Hupp, on Madison St. Mrs. Matilda Cecil, on Sophia St. An informal discussion, without any defiinite conclusion, was had concerning the interference with shade trees in paving Laporte street. As the street is laid out a pavement forty feet in width will require the remov

al of the beautiful row of trees in

front of the residence of J. E. Hancs

and the council will not permit such destruction. Some plan will be de

vised to save the shade and members

of the council will make an investiga-

tion with the city engineer this week.

Xo mention was made at this meet

ing of the street crossings the people

are demanding over the Pennsylvania

right-of-way, a question in which great

interest is now manifested.
