It's best to be honest, even if only for policy's sake. The Zuni Indians are sentimental in the extreme and marry at a youthful age. When a youth is wooing a maiden he will go and sit before her with his back turned to her and untwine his head cloth. She rejects him by softly stealing away, or accepts him by running her hands caressingly through his loosened locks. Girl Frightened to Death. The electrical storm Wednesday morning August 20, north of Bourbon was the most fearful and destructive that ever visited that section of this countv. About one o'clock in the morning Stephen Lemler's barn was struck by lightning and almost in an instant was a mass of flame. The fearful peal of thunder and vivid lightning caused the daughters of Abraham Kinzie, a neighbor of Lemler's to get up to see what was the matter and on looking out of the window the sight of the burning barn so frightened Maggie, aged 15 years, that she fell backward and died instantly. While the storm was at its worst, Mrs. William Johnson, who is about 80 years of ago, became frightened, started down stairs, fell and dislocated both her wrists and sustained some severe bruises. Miss Kinzic's funeral will be held Friday. The loss on Mr. Lemler's barn and contents is over $2,000, with an insurance of only $750. Increase In Small Banks. Under the provisions of the gold standard act of March 14, 1900, nearly 1100 banks have been established on the new basis, and mainly in the southern and western states. ' In thirteen southern states 285 lew banks have been started. Texas leads all the states in this respect, with 141 new banks. Oklahoma and the Indian Territory have each added about fifty banks to their facilities, and few have a capital exceeding $25,000.

Church Divided On Tobacco. The Dunkards and Mennonites of Reading. Pa., are threatened with a division on the question of raising tobacco. Because the industry is such an extensive one in the district and many of the dunkards depend on it for a Jliving, the question has assumed serious proportions. Some of the more radical of the brethren are urging that those members who raise tobacco should be put out of the church. . fishing at the Kankakee. The people have gone wild over the pickerel fishing at the Kankakee river and in the large ditches, and it is said an army of people can be seen along those waters each day, and many get good string.

MARRIED Horn-Stuckey. , - At the M. E. parsonage, this city, at 11 o'clock Thursday forenoon, by Rev. W. E. McKenzie, Mr. Isaac II. Horn and Miss Vida L. Stuckey. The happy couple atethMr wedding dinner at the Windsor house, of which the bride's uncle is proprietor and then drove to their home in Tippecanoe township.

Mr. Horn is the son of Hiram norn, one of the old settlers of the same eighborhood and is a prosperous young farmer. The young couple begin married life with bright prospects and the good wishes of all who know them. Henry Watterson at it Again. Henry Watterson, editor of the Louisville Courier Journal in the Wednesday's issue sends forth another philipic more bitter than the first, against ex-President Cleveland in which this choice and suggestive language Is indulged in. "We detest him not because of anything he ever did or said to us, .'but for what we have seen him do and heard him say to others, ne is an artful, selfish, ignorant and vulgar professional politician, having had amazing good fortune and being possessed of rare skill in the pursuit of his own ambition and desires, nis reappearance upon the scene at this time could have no other purpose than to help himself m some form or other. It could have no other effect than to inflame and divide. "No real democrat can regard Mr. Cleveland other than as a marplot and wrecker. Between him and Bryan we would support Bryan ten times over; between him and Roosevelt we would support Roosevelt. Of course the suggestion of his candidacy is a kind of absurdity. But not in his opinion nor in the opinion of -the wealthy ninconpoops behind him. He means business, and they mean business, and their business Is destruction to democracy. A Wide Open Town. In an argument in the police court at South Bend last Friday, Prosecuting Attorney G. E.Clark said: "South Bend today, is the magnet for the harlot and the blackleg gambler, because of the inefficiency of the police force." He continued that dens of vice . are wide open and welcome the young and innocent, and the outlaws of neighboring cities find refuge there, finding immunity from police interference.

Vir v5i 4 Brains Robber With Pick. After the pay car had paid off the section hands on the Fort Wayne road at Wh.'ting, Wednesday afternoon, four mei appeared suddenly before a a gang and bid them throw up their hands. Finding a pistol pressed to his temples, John Raymond, the section foreman obeyed and he was relieved of his valuables. They had just emptied the pockets of a second man when Fred Meyers, another railroad employe who had been standing at a little distance unnoticed, advanced from the rear and struck the leader of the robbers with a pick, burying it completely in his head. The man fell and the other robbers fl?d. Officer Frank nolbeck came on the scene and gave chase. After considerable trouble he took them all in custody. The wounded man, oelore he became unconscious, gave his name as Frank Miller, Chicago. He will die. Two of the hold-up men are colored, they give their names as Joe Aeis and Richard Turner, all of Chicugo. The other a white man, refused to give his name. The dying man is young, good looking, and well dressed. John Breman of Roby says he saw the men hanging around all day. The Pirates Were Successful. The "Pirates of Penzance" captured the audience at the opera house Wednesday evening notwithstanding the fact that every seat on the floor and gallery was filled. It was one of the best entertainments ever given by amateurs and all those connected with it have cause to be proud of their work. Master Robert Miller, of Chicago, who is but nine years old sang two solos between acts which were wonderful from one so young. His voice is very strong, clear and musical. All the parts evinced the work of horn actors and were carried better than by many actors who are on the road. Mrs. DeLoney surprised and delighted the audience by her splendid acting and singing. Miss Turner has a fine voice and she knows how to use it. Mr. Grube, who acted the part of an apprentice, did exceedingly well. The acting of the policemen convulsed the house with laughter, Mr. Matthews proved a fine actor, and without individualzing further, we will simply say that all did well and Plymouth is proud of Its theatrical and musical talent.
