Japanese troops are moving oq the left-flank of Mukden, evidently planDing to advance aloDg the Liao River and its tributaries in an attempt to to entirely surround the city and cut of the Russians. The line of the Japanese army at Mukden is sixty miles long, stretching from a point near Fushun on the east tu a point just south of Mukden aad near the Hun River on the west. Oyama's cavalry has entered the Pu Valley, which leads to the railroad north of Mukden. Japanese have landed many, troops in Korea for an advance toward Vladivostok, and indications point to a bard winter campaign in northern Korea. Tha flanking movements at Mukden Indicate another L.iao-Yang unless the masterly tactics of Kourapatkin enable him to get away. Richard Olnev, of Massachusetts, is coming Into Indiana to make speeches. His presence will add to the democratic gloom in Iloosierdom. It is not necessary to give much attention to Judge Parker's letter of acceptance as he will probably supplement it with a telegram revoking the pith of the letter. The cash balance in the treasury of the state of Mississippi Is seventy cents. It Is not necessary to say that no republican is allowed to hold an office in that state. Forty rears of faithful control of governmental affairs by the republican party induces the everage first Toter to line himself up on the side of the party that does things. Dr. Emil G. Hirsch, in an address to the delegates to the Congress of Arts and Sciences in St. Louis, declares that religion will weld the races and that men all are members of one great family. Judge Parker's letter serves to somewhat relieve the suspense of democrats who are waiting for the letter of Grandpa Davis, and wondering whether the old man will be allowed to make a fool of himself. A political party that cannot present a liy issue, and must adopt the platfortn of another, as the democratic party has done, may show good judgment, but at the same time shows it i8not capable' ot meeting great questions of government. It is fe ported that Thomas Taggart will establish headquarters at French Lick Springs and from there the campaign will oe directed in all states r west of Indiana, Gorman, Sheenan, Belmontind Davis are to take care of the states east of Indiana. Judge Parker probably will never again by any utterance of his make the impression on the country that he did by his sensational dispatch to Mr. Sheenan. That was so completely unexpected t'aat the country was electrified. His utterances sines have shown no extraordinary quality. The Japanese are planning extensive 'Janking movements for the -purpose of trapping the Russians and the strategic ability of the generals of both armies will be severely tested. It is authoritatively announced - that Japan will send as many men into Mancharia as Russia does. It seems that the great war has just commenced and it may be one of the bloodiest of modern times. The American peopleJike a positive, firm, Self-reliant, wide-awake, courageous man as their president. Such a one is Theodore Roosevelt. Such a one is not Alton Brooks Parker. It is very easy to distinguish the striking characteristics of the two men by a perusal of their letters of acceptance. One is full of vigorous, stalwart Americanism, the other passive, negative, fault-finding, full of uncertainties, ana not at all calculated to inspire confidence. The Boston Journal claims to have information that a gigantic campaign fund of 311,000,000 for j che election of Parker was released by the publication of Parker's letter of acceptance. This fund was pledged some time ago by eleven millionaires, each contributing 31,000,000, the whole being underwritten by August Belmont, Parker's manager. The eleven men who will be called upon to make good their promises are August Belmont. John D. Rockefeller, James J. Hill. Tnumas D. Ryan, Herman Bidder, O. H. P. Belmont, Joseph Pulitzer, James K. Guffey, George Foster Peabody James K. Jones, and Henry G. Davi.
Judge Parker '8 delay in sending that letter of acceptance is explained by the statement that he has always been an indifferent correspondent.
Former United State3 Senator William A. Peffer, of Kansas, Is going to take the stump for Roosevelt; Peffer was a Populist senator 'from Kansas. Very few of the 260,000 Indiana free silver men who voted for Bryan in 1896 and 1900 ever expected that he would write and speak in behalf of a New York gold bug for president. . V . The time has passed when youn men follow blindly in the political footsteps of their fathers. The boy is no longer a democrat because his father is a democrat, nor is he a republican because his ancestors have voted the republican ticket. The young men of to-day think and act for themselves, and as the presidential election approaches the young men of the country are making up their minds to" vote for Theodore Roosevelt. The young men of the country want to lndentify themselves with the party that does tilings. Tbev want to talk live issues and to help promulgate them. The . City Council. The mayor and all members of the council were present at the meeting Monday evening. Only routine work was done. . The ordinance fixing the tax levy at $1.33 was passed. Resolutions expressing appoeciation of the work of Dr. Reynolds as a member of the council and school board and extending sympathy to his family were adopted. A petition from a large number of business men, demardiDg better electric light service and compliance of the electric light company with their contract, was presented and was referred to the electric light committee and the citr attorney. A water works ordinance was placed on its first reading. .- The claim of Jefflrs and Miller for damages by surplus water on William street was refused, andjproper committees were ordered to confer with the railroad company and have them take care of the drainage and make the necessary sewers to take the water off to the north east in its natural chancel. It was decided to postpone the building of the Reifel sidewalk;'and a number of petitions In regard to walks, lights and drainage were referred to the proper committees. Mc'Carren Admits Defeat. Senator P. H. McCarren, 'chairman of the executive committee of the democratic state committee. Monday afternoon at the itoff man bouse practically admitted that Roosevelt would carry the state of New York by from 50,000 to 60,000. Mr. McGirren was accosted by a representative of a dem cratic newspaper, who said that a bet bad just been reported of $1.000 on Herrick to $900 on niggins. "Do you think that that is a fair betting proposition?" the senator was asked. "No," said Mr. McCarren. "I think that the betting ought to be just about even." "And how much will niggins run behind Roosevelt?" Mr. McCarrren was asked. ,Well, I should say about 60,000 or 60,000," was the reply. The listeners reached the conclusion that McCairen meant Rooseyelt would lead Parkerin this state by from 50,000 to 60,000. Joseph Balsley Hurt. Joseph Balsley was the victim of a serious accident Monday afternoon, lie and Schuyler Ranstead had felled a tree, a couple of miles west of town and in falling the body of the tree hung to the stump. The men cut off the large limbs, and while Mr. Ranstead was prying the log off the stump Mr. Balsley stooped to pick up a chunk of wood that was lying in the way. In that instant the tree fell, catching his left leg and pinning him to the ground. Mr. Ranstead was unable to release him, but the shouts of both men attracted Gearge Hans to the scene, and with his help Mr. Ranstead was able to lift the log and release tne wounded man, who was found to have both bones of his left leg broken midway between the knee and ankle. He was brought to town and his Injuries attended to, and is doing as well as could be expected. Bremen Enquirer. Marriage Licenses.

DR. REYNOLDS KILLED
Plymouth's Great Physician and Surgeon Meets lnstant Death at the Jacoby Crossing. Plymouth was shocked from center to circumference Sunday evening by the announcement that Dr. Reynolds had been killed at the Jacoby crossing two miles east of this city by the fast mail train on the Pittsburg. The doctor had been to see a patient in the country east of this city and was returning home. He was going west and a freight going in the same direction had passed him only two or three minutes before he reached the crossing which probably was the reason that he did not hear the fast mail, which was a half hour late, coming up behind him running a mile a minute if not faster. When he turned north to cross the track the train struck his buggy, mashed it all out of shape, threw him and the buggy on the pilot, crushing his skull and killing him instantly. The horse was dragged several feet and was thrown on the bank at one side of the road where it died in a few minutes. The train was brought to a standstill as quickly as possible. Mr. Phillips and William Vanvactor, who live near the crossing heard the crash and were soon at the train. They recognized the horse and knew that one of Plymouth's oldest and greatest physicians was dead. They and the trainmen succeeded in getting the buggy off the pilot but the doctor was wedged into it so tightly that they could not remove him and the train was run to the station at Plymouth, which was only a little more than half a mile distant. It required the strength of four men to remove the body from the pilot, but with the exception of the top and back part of the head the remains were not mangled though the right leg, arms and collar bone were broken. Undertaker Leonard took charge of the remains and prepared them for burial, after which they were taken to the family home. The train left Inwood at 6:55 and the accident occurred at 7:00 o'clock, the train having run the five miles in five minutes. It was 7:33 p. m. when the remains reached the station in this city. Dr. Knott and Dr. Aspinall were called by telephone and assisted the undertaker in his work. George R. Reynolds was born in Laporte county Ind., March 11, 1841, and was 63 years 6 months and 14 days old at the time of his death. He grew to manhood in Laporte county, received his education in the schools of Laporte and at a Methoodist college in Valparaiso, graduated in the medical department of the Michigan University, March 27, 1867, and shortly afterward came to Plymouth and began the practice of medicine. From that time until his death this city was his home. He soon became prominent as a physician and surgeon and had a large and successful practice. He was a natural physician, he had a great deal of common sense and could be depended upon in any emergency. Plain and common looking, he was very kind and gentle and had the faculty of at once winning the confidence of his patient if a difficult surgical operation was to be performed; but while he was a very skillful surgeon, he never used the surgeon's knife unless it was absolutely necessary. He did not believe in cutting people to pieces except as a last resort to save life. He was a great reader, an original thinker, always kept abreast of the times and was well informed on all current subjects. He was a born debater and was always able to well maintain his positions against any antagonist. He was for many years a member of the school board, served eight years as a member of the city council, was the first secretary of the county board of health, served four years as postmaster and held other positions of trust and importance. His wife, to whom he was married soon after be entered the medical profession, was Miss Martha Higday, of Laporte. To this union five children were born, all of whom are living. They are Mrs. Bertha K. McDonald, of Chicago; Mrs. Maud N. Houghton, of this city; Carl D., George F. and Miss Estella Reynolds, of this city. The death of Dr. Reynolds is a distinct loss to the city and county, as well as to his family, and hundreds of people feel that the place of Dr. Reynolds can never be filled. As a physician, he was the soul of honor, and a breath of scandal was never for a moment connected with his name. Card of Thanks.

MORTUARY
Mrs. George Hendricks. Mrs. Wilhelmina Hendricks, widow of George Hendricks, died at her home in this city, Thursday, September 22, at 10:30 a. m. aged 61 years and one day. Deceased was the daughter of Peter and Elizabeth Kruyer. She was born in Lent, Holland, Sept. 21, 1843, came with her parents to Plymouth in 1856 and was a resident of this city until her death. On July 1, 1858 she was united in marriage with George Hendricks, Rev. Andrew Tash being the officiating minister. To this union eleven children, eight sons and three daughters were born. Three of the sons died in childhood. The eight living children are William G. Hendricks, publisher of the Plymouth Tribune, Frank, Joseph, Peter, George, Mary and Anna Hendricks and Mrs. Lizzie Hogan. Her husband who was a veteran of the civil war, died April 11, 1896. She was a true wife and mother and was in every sense a helpmeet. To her industry, care and kindness is due in no small measure the fact that her entire family have grown to manhood and womanhood with the respect of all who know them. Her death came after an illness of almost two years during which time she was a great sufferer, and for almost a year death had seemed probable at any time. She leaves besides her children, three brothers, George and Peter Kruyer, of this city, and Henry Kruyer of Michigan City, and one sister, Mrs. C. Wickey of this city. Funeral services were held at St. Michael's Catholic church at 9 o'clock Saturday morning, conducted by Rev. S. M. Yenn. Interment at the Catholic cemetery. OBITUARY. Miss Mabel C, Reeve, youngest daughter of C. H. Reeve, of this city, died Sunday morning Sept. 18, and was buried on Wednesday in Lake cemetery, Rev. W. S. Howard, of St. Thomas Episcopal church, officiating. She was born in March, 1866, and through much affliction grew to be a most loving and lovable woman. She seemed to be one of those almost impossible creations which Dickens presented to us in "Little Nell" and "Little Dorret," living to confer happiness upon others, with little compensation to herself while on earth. At an early age misfortune marked her for its own and clung to her through life with a relentless grasp. Slow and retarded development brought on ailments of a nervous character common in such cases and among others with her, the eyes became affected, and in spite of the most skillful treatment ended in almost total blindness and partial destruction of the cornea of both eyes. This was followed by an attack of chorea. With both afflictions, she suffered much until nearly her majority, thus depriving her of most of the pleasures of childhood and youth, of schools, and the thousand pleasures which attend the associations of youthful and school-girl days and the memories of them afterward. Later, after she recovered her ability to see, by diligent study and reading she acquired a large fund of knowledge and other accomplishments, mostly of an artistic nature, and became capable and was entitled to the highest pleasures life contains. Two years ago she became afflicted with cancer. By a course of treatment almost miraculous the growth of the cancer was killed and it was removed without surgical treatment, during which time her sufferings were almost intolerable. She became much prostrated and devitalized. Healthy healing processes had begun to follow the ravages of the cancer and the pain had subsided and she seemed in a fair way to recover and would have recovered had not her energies been so exhausted that nature could not continue the functions necessary to restoration and life. At her birth she was such a perfect representation of a beautiful doll that impulsively observers gave her the name of Dollie, and it remained with her through life. She was generally known as Dollie Reeve and is still so spoken of. Patient, brave, enduring, she bore all the ills forced upon her. Receiving every care that loving hearts and hands and the best professional skill and unlimited supply of money could bestow. She had no fears of death, but did fear the agonies that sometimes attend it, and she prayed that she might be spared them and have a peaceful and painless death. Her prayer was granted and she sank to sleep like a tired child in its mother's arms, without a sigh or a moan or the movement of a muscle, retaining her consciousness until the last moment. Hers was a most beautiful character, and, as was said by her pastor in his funeral discourse, "If there can be anything beautiful in or connected with death, her death was beautiful, and her last moments more like the closing of the petals of a beautiful

She had the sympathy and kindly administrations of many loving friends and neighbors through all her illness.

She was a member of St. Thomas Episcopal church, believer in a future life, and died in the hope of a blessed immortality.
