The three individuals who on a bleak night forty-seven years ago printed the first issue of the Northern Indianian, are still living in Warsaw. They are General Reub Williams, Nelson W.

The anthracite miners, the most of whom lost two days because of Christmas and two days for New Year's, cannot be in so dire need as been depicted, else they would have .worked the four days. The suffering of the people for coal in the eastern cities who were in sympathy with them seems not to appeal to the miners. Mr. Ilervev was not able to accompany the remains of his wife to Plymouth, ne is almost 87 years old and has been in failing health for several months.

Calvin Neiswanger who shot Albert

Wymer through the hand at the New Year's dance at Inwood, was bound over to the circuit court Tuesday by Justice Molter. The evidence indicates that Neiswanger is a pretty hard case and shot to kill, but his plea will no doubt be self defense. The promoters of the Logansport & Laporte interurban system will have the organization of the company perfected, the route surveyed and franchises secured through towns and counties which the line will travel by the first day of April, unless present plans miscarry. The order of Gleaners held their regular meeting at Inwood Friday night it being installation night for the ensuing year after which they had an oyster supper and general good time. They received nine applications for membership which was the partial cause for the good cheer. Mr. and Mrs. Marion Collins, who came here with the remains of Mrs. Hervey, have returned to their home at Blissfield, Michigan. Mrs. Collins is the daughter of Hiram Hervey and she and her husband grew up in Plymouth, were married here and have scores of warm friends in this city. Cornelius Vanderbilt has recovered from his recent dangerous illness, and now it is expected his brothers and sisters who went back on him on account of his marrying outside of his station and made up with him when he was thought to be dying, will lapse back into their old state of enmity. State Treasurer Levy Monday sent $200,000 to Winslow, Lanier & Co., of New York, to be paid on state debt. A few months ago the debt was reduced $1,000,000, leaving a debt of $2,787,615.12. Mr. Levy says if the republicans are in power long enough they will entirely wipe out the state debt. The total consumption of tea in the United Kingdom exceeds that of all the other European countries and the United States put together, being 250 million pounds in 1900, or a little more than 6 pounds per capita for the people of Great Britain and Ireland. This is nearly half the world's marketed crop. So Bret Harte left an estate of only $1,800! That announcement sounds very queer when one considers the popularity of his works in the past and the demand for the products of a pen that could draw scenes and people in a way that made the reader feel that he would know them personally if he ever met them. Floods are causing great damage in the eastern part of the state of Washington. A great deal of property has been destroyed, farm houses have been swept away, localities are isolated, and great suffering prevails where assistance of any sort is out of the question. The melting of the snow in the mountains is the primary cause of the flood. It seems that Rev. L. A. Moench has become very popular at Valparaiso and all the members of the Catholic church in that city are hoping and requesting that some other priest will be appointed to fill Rev. A. B. Oechtering's place at Mishawaka. The Valparaiso Messenger says Father Moench is held in high esteem by the community at large and all would regret to see a change. The laws of Indiana against grave robbing are probably as severe as those of any other state, yet in view of recent events it is not unlikely that the coming legislature may attempt to strengthen them. The penalty for desecrating graves cannot be made too severe, and it is right that officers and professors of medical colleges who knowingly receive stolen bodies should be made equally responsible with the persons who dig into the graves. County Treasurer's Interests for 1902. Plymouth, Ind., Jan. 5th, 1903. To The Editor; Dear Sir:---I have just paid into the county treasury the amount of $495.81, this sum being the interest on the daily balances on the public moneys in my hands for the past six months. This sum, together with the amount which I had previously paid in for the interests on the balances for the first six months, amounts to the sum of $1196.07, for the year of 1902. If the legislature would pass a law compelling the treasurer to deposit the county funds in the banks in the name of the county, the money would bring a much higher rate of interest, as the banks would then bid for the deposit. In the city of Henderson, Kentucky the banks pay 3 and 1-8 per cent interest on the daily balances to the city school board. The above law would lessen the liability, and surety companies would make bonds for much less rates than they do at present. They would also make bonds for treasurers if the money was deposited in the name of the county where they would not if the money was deposited in the name of the individual. Yours Respectfully, William O'Keefe, Treas. Marshall Co., Ind. Tell your neighbors about the good qualities of the Tribune.
