A LITTLE EXPERIENCE
AFTER MANY YEARS SAMAR IN FERMENT DEMOCRACY'S NEW ME DEFIED BANDITS POWERS CONVICTED FOR THE SECOND TIME
What One Man Saw in a Day Showing
Hearst's Disreputable Methods. A Plymouth gentleman who was in Chicajro last week for the first time in three years received an impressive les son in the up-to-date methods of boosting the circulation of Hearst's American. The gentleman referred to walked five squares on Adams street during the busy r.oon hour and heard twenty or thirty newsboy's crying that progressive (?) sheet with lung-tearing voices and every one of them called "Full account of the hor rible accident! Many lives lost in a street car collision on Milwaukee avenue!" At 6 o'clock the same gentleman was on Dearborn street in the down-town district and the newsboys were selling the American with cries of "All about the Czolgosz suicide in prison After the theatre in the our Plymouth man's cars evening were assailed with the shouts of dozens of urchins peddling the same sheet and the inducement to buy was "Hammond all burned up! The whole town on fire!' ' It turned out that the street car collision resulted only in the fracture of three left legs, the Hammond fire involved one plant alone and the suicide had no foundation in fact whatever.. The newsboys are instructed at the office of the paper as to the calls they are to use in selling on the streets. Deceit, distortion and exaggeration are the grounds of Hearst's apparent success in forcing his wares upon the public, but such success can never be more than temporary. ECONOMY, NOT LUCK, SECRET OF SUCCESS. Rochester RepuWIcan. The great majority of men are what is commonly called poor men. and the question naturally arises why the poor are in the majority. The answer is that the average citizen is not built on the plan to acquire an independent competence, that is to say has not accumulated enough to care for himself and family on a rainy day, to provide for sickness and death without owing any one a dollar or depending upon friends to help out in time of need. It is safe to say that nine-tenths of the young men in Rochester are living at the top of the heap. That is they are expending every dollar they can possibly command for clothing, for society, for a good time, fcr cigars, and possibly for saloon patronage, and many are not satisfied with absorbing all their, earnings but are determined to keep up with the procession if many articles are purchased on credit and never paid for. And you would be surprised to look over the books of clothiers and behold the names of persons w ho kindly received credit and then abused the confidence imposed. Such fellows are recorded as "dead beats" and all dealers are shy of them. The only possible way for a poor boy to rise above the ranks of poverty is to avoid the "swim" and resolve to lay by a certain anvwnt of money each week if it is necessarv to make a srcritiee to do sa. One of the wealthiest men in Rochester accomplished his purpose, not so much by earning big wages or speculation but by laying up every dollar that could possibly be spared from a comfortable living, when the accumulated dollars were put out to earn other dollars. In this way his wealth was acquired by economy, not by any special exertion or speculation, and it came easy, and what one man has done can be done b others. It looks bad for a young man to go about the streets smoking cigars and having an all around good time and depending upon his parents or friends for the bread he eats and a comfortable home that he never assisted in providing. The young man who eats the bread he did not earn is that much of a pauper and the only difference betwera himself and a tramp is that he does not subsist upon handouts because he is permitted to sit at a .veil filled table. , Young man, if you want to avoid bing a dependent, a borrower,' a renter, one who Jives from hand to mouth, bagging assistance in times of affliction, buying on credit when you are unable to earn wages, commence now to cultivate a principle of economy that will make you independent in all things, because with "money y-u :an purchase all the needs of mortals -im. Therefore the difference between dependence and independence '.U not luck or speculation it is on.'y economy a principle that any person can practice. - Rochester's New Sewer. Rochester has awarded a contract for the construction of a sanitary E3wer to fost $19,498.50. It will extend through the town on JIain street, withsereral laterals, and will terminate In a disposal plant. The total length will be 12,021 feet. "Work is to begin by Not. 4.

An Apparent Wholesale Murder Mystery
is Developed at Peru. "What was probably a wholesale murder has been unearthed by William Downing a farmer, who lives on the south bank of the Wabash river, four and a quarter miles west of Peru. Mr. Downing, while digging in a spring at his home to make room for a barrel, removed the skeletons of six persons, four adults and two children, evidentlv the remains f what was once a whole familv. One of the skulls had a hole in it as if it had been made bv a blow from a club. Some of the ribs showed signs of having received blows also. These conditions and the fact that the bodies were buried standing erect and so closely together indicate that the familv had been foullv dealt with. l.ut who the people were or who committed the deed is as much of a mystery as when the bodies were put there. R. I. Leese, who has lived in the vicinity for tiftv-six vcars and now lives next door neighbor to Mr. Down ing, says that he never heard of the Indians burving their dead in the manner in which these bodies were found He is of the opinion that the skeletons arc the remains of a white family murdered and buried in the early days of last century, but who they were or how the bodies got there, e savs he has no idea. HAS SEEN IT ALL Travels of the Man From TtirXeyville, Which Is in Kosciusko County. "Have you spent all your life right here in this one place?" asked a stranger of Jake . Davis as he came across him seated on the fence whittling by his pickle patch. "Not by. a derned sight, "said Jake, "I been hyar the better part o'the time, but la! I hcv traveled fur an' wide." "Ever been abroad?" "Wal, not exactlv to sav abroad oni mm less you call it goin' abroad to go from here wav over to Ligonier: I been over thar twice in the last forty vcar. It's fourteen and a half mile to Ligonier, an I been further than that, fer my ole woman an' me went clean to Fort Wayne on our weddin' tower, and that's thirty-nine mile from hyar. Then 1 been over in LaGrange county to see my wife's folks twice, an that s twenty odd mile from here. "Then I been over to Warsaw ez many ez four times, an' that's eighteen mile. "Ez I say, I been hyar most o' the time, but then I've traveled fur an' wide all the same. I've seen the big four-storv mill at Ligonier an' the engine an' kyars over to Fierceton. I rid three miles on 'em, an,' it's all I want o' the pesky things. I've seen a calf with two heads, an' a feller that could eat fire an' dance on broken glass in his bare feet. I seen a man hung once, an' a boss race fcr a purse o' $G5. Yes, sir! I've been fur an' wide and I reckon I've seen the biggest part o' what there is to see in this world, an' I don't dot on doin' no more gaddin' about." Picrceton Record. GROWING PAINS Kewanna's Town Council Does Things Worthy of Praise. Kewanna is growing and improving under the genial warmth of a railroad boom and among other things she has bettered her streets and abolished hitching posts in the business district. The Herald is greatly elated by these evidences of progress and eulogizes the town board in the following language: These permanent improvements have been agitated for years but never until the present . time have we had a town council with sufficient backbone to tackle the proposition. A town council which allows itself to be bulldozed, browbeaten and dictated to is not a town council. It is an aggregation of salary drawing automatons. Thank fortune, the present council A. E. Hudkins, C. McMillon and L. O. Leasure is made up of gentlemen who have ideas and convictions other than secondhand and who hesitate at no action which is unquestionably for he public good. These gentlemen tarn their salaries sixteen times a year and draw them but once. They are elected to serve the public and are doing that duty well and good. The Herald bows in respectful admiration to a council which has builded for itself a monument. ! A Neighborly Thrust A Plymouth man was in the city Tuesday with the purpose of opening a restaurant here but the rent charged for the only store room in town rather scared him off. There is quite a difference in rentals between alive town and one of the other sort. Mishawaka Enterprise.
Startling Conspiracies are on Foot
in the Islands. Many Native Civil Officials Implicated In the attempted Insurrection against . American Aultiritu and Numerous A rests Already MadeManilTa, Oct. 2G. Numerous suspected municipal officials liave been arrested in Samar. Evidence shows that there have been startling conspiraces on foot. The sources of the chief supplies for the rebels have been blockaded, and the inhabitants are now required to concentrate in towns. People outside these camps will be regarded as ene mies of the Americans. Intense feeling exists among the troops in Samar. If they can meet the enemy in the open there will be great retaliation. Many of them have seen and the others have heard of the bar barous treatment to which the dead American soldiers were subjected by the Filipinos re cently. Francisco do Jesus, Luk ban's chief commissary, was recently captured and taken to Cebu. Papers which he had in his pos session have resulted in the arrest of many of the best-known presidents and other civil offi cials of the island of Levte. It developesthat Bili ran island, north of the island of Leyte, has been a hotbed of insurrection. Every civil official there has been aiding the insurgents ot Samar in every way. They have landed several cargoes of rice and have received hemp in exchange. Several thousand dollars also fell into the hands of the Americans when De Jesus was made prisoner. His capture is thought to be a great disaster to the revolutionary cause. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS "TO OCT. 26 1901 . A3 FCRMSHED BT CRESSNER & CO., Owners of the only abstract books In the county.

Battle .For Cuban Independence
Waoed In Free Trade Lines Forstiadowed bu Leading Democrats. Washington, Oct. 25. Free trade "with Cuba and annexation will be the cry of the democrats in the next congress. This was the word which has be n brought to Washington in the past two days by a prominent democratic senator. The decision to urge such an insular policy at the next session has been reached by an understanding between a number of democratic senators within the last two weeks. They have taken, upon themselves the task of making the policy known to members of their party in the house, and urging agitation and a fight along that line. The movement in this direction is independent of Senator Jones, and indicates a determination to throw off his leadership in the senate, just as was done repeatedly during the last session of congress. Although not definitely decided upon by a democratic caucus, the suggestion that this decision as to party line of action without consultation or the advice of Senator Jones wns revolutionary, and was made by a democratic senator now m Washigton with a shrug of his shoulder and the laughing re joinder, "We democrats are all leaders." The democrats will declare in their speeches on the floor of the senate and house that they are simply making the old free trade fight their party has been en gaged in ever since there was such an issue to hang on to. They hope to have a sentimental side to add to their arguments. They will picture a condition of diie distress on the part of the Cubans. They will declare, to the galleries that the United States has taken from the Cu bans the support which they had in their relations with Spain, and disregard their former cry of Spanish oppression. They will urge that absolute free .trade with the island is a duty to the Cubans which the United States should meet. They hope to pre sent a united front in favor of such a policy, and there are indi cations that they will be as near united as they have ever been recently on any proposition. In urging immediate annexa tion they hope to have a popular cry for the next congressional elections and one which will ap peal directly to all classes, bar ring those perhaps of the At lantic coast, where the high pro tectionists fear the annexation of Cuba will bo a break in the protective tariff system, which has done so much for the country. The democrats will declare that they are not urging a new issue. Thev will declare that V democrats from the southern states fathered a movement for the annexation of Cuba many years ago. They hope to place the republicans in congress in an awkward position by referring to their pledge to give Cuba an independent and free govern ment, altnough it is well known the Teller resolution was passed as a concession to the democrats in congress who howled against any settlement wnicn aia not provide an independent government for the islands. There are but few republican leaders in Washington at this time. Those who are hero say the party will not fear to meet the opposition on 'the issue if raised. There are strong indications that as the time for the establishment of an independent rH'ornmrnit..iii C!nhn. draws tip.v the better class of Cubans are fearful of the experiment; This has caused a notable and definite growth of the annexation senti ment in the island This has been recognized in the changed attitude of the radical leaders who fought the Piatt amendment in the constitutional convention, and who proposed to doubt ths sincerity of the motives of the United States toward the Cubans. It has been noticed in the change of tone of the leading and more influential papers of the island. If the annexation sentiment in the island itself grows so that a request shall come from a respectable majority of the islands themselves, the paity will be in a position to grant the prayers of such majority.
Bravery of an Express Messenger
in a Hold-up. Southern Pacific Train Attacked hy Robbers Who are roiled by a Guard He Hurled Lighted Dynamite out of His Car and Used His Gun. Portland, Ore , Oct. 24. The north-bound overland express train on the Southern Pacific was held up by two masked men fifteen miles south of Eugene at 3 o'clock yesterday morning. The robbers blew open the express car with dynamite, but secured little booty, having been driven off by the express messenger. The -only things they carried away were the contents of one registered mail pouch. Two men boarded the train at Cottage Grove, and a short distance this side, near Saginaw, they climbed over the tender, put off the fireman and his helper, uncoupled the express car, and made the en gineer drive ahead a short dis tance. When the train halted their first act was to blow open the door of the express car, which they did "with dynamite. tearing the door to pieces and badly damaging the car. Express Messenger C. R Charles was in the car, and had made up his mind to staj" there The robber. ordered the messenger out of the car, but he refused to come. He held a position where he could easily bring down any person who should enter Lh h the opening on the side made by the dynamite. Come out of there or we will blow you and the car to commanded the robbers. , 'Blow and be d d!" was the answer. men tne desperadoes com pelled the engineer to throw into the car a stick of dynamite, with a lighted fuse. The messenger ; grabbed it and threw the blazine: thing back at them. It exploded outside the car. The men next attempted to en ter the car by compelling the en gineer, who was in the hands of the robbers, to crawl in through the door, the robbers hoping to gain admittance by using him as a protector. But Charles used his shotgun to good advantage and kept up a hot fire directly over the engineer's head, knowing well the robbers would attempt to follow him into the car. Finally the robbers turned their attention to getting what little they could from the mail car. They obtained the registered mail, and then one of them took the engineer on board the engine, which he commanded to be cut loose from the train. It ran to within half a mile of Eugene, where the robber left and started toward the Willamette river, in a northerly direction. The passengers were not molested. No Ground for Anxiety. New York, Oct. f6. Dun's Weekly Review of Trade today says: With mills, shops, factories and furnaces assured of full oper ation until the end of the year, as a rule, and many contracts al ready running far into 1902, there is no occasion for anxiety regarding the industrial situation. Job ers are still urgently asking prompt deliveries by manufacturers of staple lines, while opening transactions in fancy goods for the holidays are unusually early, showing that dealers anticipate a large trade.
