There was a heavy snow storm in North Dakota and Minnesota Friday. The trustees of the German Baptist College of North Manchester, have appealed to the people there to raise 81,000 to save the institution from being sold. The college had indebtedness sf $24,000, and all of the amount except $1,000 has been raised. The trustees say that they have now exhausted all resources. The census of 18T0 gave the whole

population of Utah as 88,374, of which 80,000' were Mormons. The census of lOtO tfives Utah a population of 276,740, and of these 220,000 are Mormons. This shows a net increase of l40.000Morm.ons in thirty years. In 1890 Mormonism had 154,000 adherants in the United States. In December, 1901, tliero were over 300,000. In the Eleventh school district of New York city, where there are 10,000 sch'.K'l children packed into a crowded district a mile square, a benevolent person of an 'inquiring mind has made the discovery that nine-tenths of those children have never seen a growing llower.

Judge Tuthill, presiding in the superior court at Laporte, Thursday sentenced William Ilenke, an habitual drunkard, to serve a senteuce of thirty days in the county jail, pay a fine of $100 and stand disfranchised for a period of three years. The case of Ilenke is unusual for the reason it is the first time in the history of the courts of the state that" a citizen has been disfranchised for drunkenness. An exchange says that a babe is the prince of wails, an inhabitant of lap land, the morning caller, noon day crawler, midnight brawler, the only precious possession that ever excites envy, a key that opens the hearts of all classes, rich and poor alike, in all countries, a stranger with unspeakable cheek, enters a house without a stitch to its back, and is received with open arms by everyone. George Lewis Godfrey, a direct descendant of the celebrated Indian chief, Little Turtle, died at Fort Wayne Saturday. was 02 years old, was a Knight Templar and a thirty-second degree Mason. On account of his Indian blood it was necessary to obtain a special dispensation from the Indiana grand lodge before the degrees could be conferred. He was a farmer and owner 700 acres of land at the time o his death. Harley Logan having been several times attacked by a large dog that he kept from biting him with ditficulty, determined to protect himself by using a revolver. He put the revolver in his hip pocket Monday evening, came home from town without meeting the dog and stopped at his wood-house to carry in some wood for morning. When he stooped down the revolver ell from his pocket, the hammer strucK the floor and a ball was discharged, entered his instep and made a wound which has made it difficult for him to walk for several days. A Disgrace to Plymouth. The commencement exercises of Center township at the opera house last night weie marred, in fact almost entirely destroyed by the hoodlums of this city who crowded the gallery and made all the noise possible. Rev. O. S Thornberry, who was to deliver the address could not speak on account of the disorder. The music could not be heard and all intended exercises were In a measure abandoned. Those present say no attempt was made bv the city authorities to preserve order. Marshal Chaney's course during the past four years having been indorsed by 184 majority, the hoodlums, no doubt, thought , they were celebrating a democratic victory. It is evident that Center township commencements will have to be held outside of Plymouth until we have a chance in the police officers of the city. Frank Rumley's Hand Mashed. Frank Rumley, while putting in a fence near DonaldsoaWednesday afternoon, had his hand mashed and will probably lose the third and fourth fingers. He laid his hand on a post, which another man bad been driving into the ground with a sledge hammer, to sight from one post to the other. The man with the sledge not noticing Rumley 's position, struck and hit his hand. Dr. Knott was called and dressed the wound, but there is little hope of saving the fingers. Latest Fish Story. The best fish story, heard around here for a year or two comes from the park today. Jesse Zehner while at the dam Thursday, noticed a great disturbance in the waters and walked out on the dam to investigate. He found a large pike , that ,had been caught between the rocks in an at tempt to cross the dam. Jesse caught the fish in his hands and carried it to the mill, weighed it and found that it weighed fifteen pounds and was fortytwo inches long. The fish part of this storr may .be all. right, but the boys are asking "How did Jess get to the fish,, when the"dam is covered with water. - . - t

I see by the newspapers that the markets are full, and that the farmer's produce is not being used as freely as formerly, and that stock raisers are content to sell their cattle at reasonable prices.
