Tn kkk will no doubt be a bill passed in l tie present congress restoring a port it n of the tanlT on wool. Anothki: appeal has been sent out by Secretary Carlisle for help regarding the sinking fund of the government. A Nevada woman was recently sued by a broken-hearted man for breach of promise. The woman won the case. It has arrived at a peculiar condition of att'aiis in Armenia, where the natives are compelled to renounce Christianity to save their lives. Cx;i:k has in its present session 2-s lawyers. Some of our exchanges think they will prove more of a disturbing than a legislative element. Tiik Ilea Cross society, under the management of Miss Clara Horton, will soon leave Washington, I) C. for Armenia to extend succor to the destitute christians in that country. This is true Christianity. She is past TU years of age. Tin: Armenians were the first wl o, as a nation, embraced Christianity. St. (iregury, s.-.rnamed tne "Illuminator," was to the Armenians what St. Patrick was to the Irish. their apostle. In the year .r' he baptized King Tividates and propogated the faith throughout the whole country. lie died in '3'A'l, leaving tue Armenian church in a llouri!iing condition. His most illustrious successors were Saints Nerses, Sanak and M es rep. The last named invented the Armenian alphabet and translated the JJibie into Armenian. iijort Home Iiiln-trv. An exchange a tew days ago gave its readers considerable to think about when it commented on the way a greater portion of its citizens patronized home institutions. It is an established fact that the prosperity of a community largely depends upon the steaJy employment of Its citizens and the amount of wealth that is distributed

. ... .... outh is, without cavil or controversy, week or month in wages. YNhenL, ' ....... .

eacn people aie generally employed at I i?ood wages it increases their power of consumption of useful and neces- ! sary articles, the benelicient effects ' of which, are immediately felt in all branches of industry und trade. When people are idle or employed at low wages their power to coinsume is lessened and t'jis too is soon felt in the trade of tl;e community, and soon i complaints, are heard on every hand of dull trade, hard times, etc. Take for illustration in the city of Plymouth, the cigar manufctoring industry alone. There are m our city at present three establishments that uses their every energy to produce goods that are exceptr.ble to the taste of the lovers id' a good smoke. How many of our tobacc users smoke nothing but a home müde cigar. We would be afraid to venture the assertion as being authentic, but we do believe in this industry alone, over one half of the smoke; s in Plym uth use a foreign made cigar. While it is business for the linns that handle these kind of goods to keep ! inumusui evei uesci ipiiou on nun! yet it io no doubt true, that they preler to sell the home-made cigar. It is the consumer, the man who depends upon the labor of his owu hands, whose employment is secured through the chan nels of home indrustries that in most cases, in an unconscious manner deliberately gives a stab at his home manufacturers every time he buys a cigar made out side of his home town. In the construction of these goods and the quality of stock used, there is not the slightest doubt the home made cigar is equal to any for the same price presented for your favors. If this matter were looked upon in a manner favorable to our home producers the increased amount of labor necessary to keep the stock upon the mar ket would increase the number of actual residents in Plymouth and cause a much larger portion of money to be diverted throughout the different channels of trade. Nor is it the cigar business alone; it takes in every industry .that manufactures or presents to the inhabitants of our city any article of usefulness or luxury that is in daily de mand. We believe in home production, and the word "protection" to these institutions is meant in its broadest and fullest sense. Santa Claus Has induced the Nickel Plate road to sell excursion tickets at low rates to all points on the line between Buffalo and Chicago December 21th, 23th and 31st, 105 and January 1st, 18W.

A week or ten days treatment efftcta a complete cure.

NOT GUILTY.

Tli .Itiry in Tli runiiiiigliain ("a.-r at f'nlumltia City, Thu I-iit-. One of the mot intense and inter sting murder trials thai has occurred in this portion of the state, has ben centered around that of Jim Cunningnam, of Ounfee, for the murder of old Postmaster Singer, several months ago. lite ease nas umicuiu'siru muuuimiii) by both sides, and tiie evidence, what little was brought out, was purely circumstantial. The scene in the court house of that city last Saturday night at 10:30 seems to have been of the most exciting character, and one that will be remembered for years by those who were present when the verdict "not guilty" was pronounced. If a lesson was ever forcibly presented to a man that will bear good fruit, it seems to ns that Jim Cunningham has secured one that will surely make a better man of him. -He announced after receiving his liberty, that henceforth his aim would be, to so live as to be above suspicion. J mi Cunningham, as brought out by the evidence at the trial, was an easy going fellow, next to shiftlessness, and was considerable of a blower, and it was through his love of bragging that placed his life in danger for the murder of Singer. The verdict gave universal satisfaction. ponxy" People-. Two tramps at liutler, Ind., says an exchange, entered a saloon with a gallon jug, and after having it tilled with whisky laid down a dollar which thedis penser refused owing to the fact that it was four dollar whisky, lie immediate ly poured it back into the barrel. The bums retired with the jug, entered an alley, broke it over a stone and proceeded to squeeze about a pint of the lour dollar whisky out of two sponges they had put in the vessel.
