In the Dietl and Peter Heim neighborhood and the 'country between here and there wheat, corn, oats ana every thing growing, is badly damaged. Workmen are tearing down the limestone abutments of Michigan street viaduct and will replace them with sand-stone. Time has demonstrated that lime-stone, being of animal formation will not last long. The nation's birthday was celebrated by the boys of Plymouth with all the noise possible to be made with giant fire crackers, torpedoes etc. The merchants all closed their stores at noon and the day was observed quietly and appropriately. A British newspaper cinnot understand wily the American people take such pains to display their flag when the Briton, who had a Hag much longer, scarcely notices or even knows the British flag.

John Rose and Isaac Coil, arrested last Thursday for slealing meat and chickens from Mrs. Böhmer, were taken to Plymouth and arraigned before Judge Capron. Upon their show of penitence, and promise of future good behavior, they were told to go and sin no more.

Jack should be careful and keep out of bad company lwben he goes away from home.

A carrier pigeon was shot west of Inwood last week. On the ring was V 8167. The marker had San Francisco. Cal. There was no date. There was very little hail at Inwood, there was more at Bourbon and

quite a hail-storm at Warsaw Wed nesday evening. It is fortunate that most of the farms escaped. If the storm had been so severe throughout the county as it was in Plymouth, the crops would have been ruined. When Senator Spooner charged democrats with attacking the army in the Philippines Senator Carmack declared "any fool could make such a charge and any parrot could be taught to repeat it." This was much more personal and insulting than Senator Beveridge's remark re garding Senator Bailey's conduct. But Senator Spooner is from Wisconsin, not Texas. Plymouth was in the center of the .... . hail-storm, but little aamage was done more than a mile outside of the city in any direction. It was the worst hail-storm ever known in Plymout. Thousands of window lights; were broken 483 in the Clizbe factory alone; gardens were almost ruined and trees and shubbery were badly damaged, The fields of grain adjoining town were almost ruined. Fourth of July Fires. There were no fires that could be traced to fire crackers or fire works, but at 2 o'clock Jerry Klinger's house, north of the court house, and occupied by I Loyal iBurch caught fire. One end and the roof of the building were badly damaged before they were reached by the fire department. The loss is about $300, covered by insurance. Most of the household goods were carried out and Mr. Burch's damage was slight. At 6:30 this morning Mrs. Seraphine Wickey's summer kitchen caught tire but the flames were extinguished befüre much damage was done. Act A$ You Talk. The Indianapolis News comments favorably on President Roosevelt's Fourth of July speech at Pittsburg and says uo discussion of the president's speech would be adequate which failed to deal with one very important rule of action that was admirably stated thus: The importance of everything that is said can be tested by how nearly what is done afteward corresponds with it. It is a very good thing for us to meet together on the Fourth of July in order to remind ourselves of what our grandfathers did, to refresh our memories as to what our government really means. I ask of each man here that he prove his truth by his endeavor; that in whatever line he may be; that in whatever walk of life he may be; that whatever may be the line in which he does his work, he try to act throughout the year as he talks on the Fourth of July. It is an excellent rule, applicable to president and people alike, but. it is a rule which is at one time or another violated by all of us, and which from the days of the Hebrew prophets has been set aside time and again by weak humanity. But we should all try to live up to it to make our acts square with our words. Accidents In Neighboring Cities. In contrast with the Fourth in Plymouth many people were hurt in Elkhart county and Mishawaka. At Goshen Jack Collins, a young man about 16 years old, had his face filled with powder by discharging a cannon. John Amsden was badly injured on the first finger of left hand, while shooting blank catridges. Harry Hess, son of Mrs. Jacoblless, of Harrison township, received an ugly wound in the palm cf his right hand, inflicted by a blank cartridge. Mrs. Hackert was severely burned in her hand while shooting blank cartridges, Clifford Sixbee, of Scott, Ind., was badly burned in the eyes while shooting cannon crackers. Hubert Knight was slightly injured by being run over by a carriage. Several persons were overcome by heat and a number fainted. Louis Noble was compelled to stop playing in Roger's band.

Jenkins,' of Elkhart, suffered hurts on his left side. Charles Poorbaugh, of Mishawaka, will lose two fingers on his right hand. Ed Eshenbaugh, of Mishawaka, has a big gash in his head made by a cracker. John Coleman, of near LaG range, may lose tho sight of an eye, W. G. Belt, of Wabash, hit a torpedo, with a pick and was taken home an invalid. Helen Lelninger, of Wabash, has an injury of the right eye. F. M.
