Another magnificent wedding
took place yesterday evening-Sam-
uel Rosenfeld, of Bremen, and Miss
Fannie Nussbaum, of this city, being
the parties who have agreed to per-
form life's journey together. We go
to press too late to give particulars.
We learn that Miss Frank Shir-
ley, one of our prompt paying SUBJ
scribers, and of course No. girl,
was married Sunday night to gen
tleman named Cummings. We are
not acquainted with the lucky BRIDE
groom, but presume he is good fell
low to capture so sensible girl as
Frank.
Miss Alice Barber, of Bourbon,
takes the REPUBLICAN Her time ex-
pired a few weeks ago and she
promptly notified us that she would
be in Plymouth, or send, and pay for
the paper another year within short
time. Saturday last her sister came

always pay for their newspapers.
Last week J. NJ. Cummings, resi-
ding southeast of Plymouth brought
into our Office full peck Of twenty
ounce apples, we think no one could
have seen them without being salts
fed that Northern Indiana can COM
pete with any part of the world in the
production of fine apples, and what
is better they were as good as they
looked, and the boys all say bully for
Cummings,
And now comes ID. s. Staley and
presents the Office with variety of ap
Piles not all quite so large as Cum
mings', but among them were sew
eral Gloria Mondis that could not be
excellcd anywhere and one of them
was the largest apple We ever saw.
Even McKelvy was compelled to &C
knowledge that Nebraska could not
beat it. III you want good apples
Cummings and Staley raise them.
We understand the impression
prevails at Inwood and other Green
back towns, that NJ. A. o. Packard
and others are really managing the
contest for DR.. Reynolds, because
they fear an examination of the az
fairs of the Treasurer's office, which
would take place il Republican gets
it; but we suppose the real reason
that Doc hated to give it up was be-
cause he feet so certain Of it previous
TO the election. The canvassing board
has declared Fred. Tescher elected by
100 majority, and there is no power
on this earth that can reverse that
decision.
Tuesday Deputy-Marshal Michael
Burns received postal card from
Lacrosse. Ind, giving description of
a man who had broken into store
there and stolen lot of cutlery, jew
elry, &c. Tuesday afternoon he
learned that a man answering the de-
scription was in town selling knives.
About dusk he went to the Germania
Hotel, accompanied by James Maxey,
and found the man. whom they ar
rested and searched. They found
about two dozen knives and some
other articles in his possession, but
failed to find any pistol about him.
They started to take him to Jail. and
when they arrived opposite Hupp's.
Maxey remarked that he would go in
and leave the articles that they had
taken from him. while Burns, accom-
panied by Henry Prottsman, took the
fellow to Jail. On arriving opposite
the Jail the man asked IL that was the
place. Burns replied that it WIS.
Quick as thought he turned and fired
revolver, but fortunately the ball,
instead of striking Burns in the
breast, entered the right arm above
the elbow, making an ugly but not
dangerous flesh wound. Burns
though disabled by the shot, dealt
the fellow such terrible blow that
he felled him TO the earth. Burns
was terribly enraged, and when they
reached the enclosure OF the jail
knocked the prisoner down again
who now began TO beg for his life
and Sheriff Fink not being at home
Mrs. Fink became alarmed lest the
: prisoner should be killed and let one
of the prisoners out of Jail to helT
Prottsman keep Burns from killins
I him. But after a few minutes al
