A Plain Statement.

AS stated to our patrons when the
first issue of the INDEPENDENT appear
ed in Plymouth, we intended to issue
weekly for five weeks at least, over
1,S00 copies. The allotted time will not
expire for two weeks, and the prObabili-
ties are that we will continue to send
out the same number as sample copies
But it is our intention the coming week
to solicit subscriptions.
We have not as yet asked this favor,
believing that our duty lay, in first show
ing to the people what kind of a publica-
ton we intended to give them before
soliciting their suffrage. We have done
SO, and in this attempt leave to their
judgment as to whether the INDEPEND-
ENT is worthy of their support.
The few issues presented to you is a
criterion as to the future complexion of
this paper. Whether it has come up to

Hand Crushed.

Fred IIyer, brakeman on the local
freight train, No. $50, l.. +. Il w. II. r.,
had his right hand caught between the
deadwood of box car and an oil tank
on-that road, while coupling cars near
the depot in this city at l2:40 p. IN. Tues
day. The back of his hand and fore
arm were badly mangled, but luckily no
bones were broken.
DIR. Wilson dressed the wound and
Mr.. Hyer was able to proceed to his
home in Michigan City. From the
statement of the injured man, it is learn
ed, that the two cars were SO situated at
the time of the accident as to render it
very difficult to properly effect a coup
ling. The crew of the train were in a
hurry and in endeavoring to make a
quick coupling, Hyer got pinched.
1t is hoped with due care no perma-
nent disablement will result, although
the injury is most painful and com
paratively dangerous one.
Hyer had been braking on this train
for the past five years.

Hi Henry's Minstrels.

n crowded house greeted Hi Henry
Minstrels at the Centennial Opera House
last Monday evening. The performance
was fully up To the standard of excel
lence which has made Iii Henry's name
famous in amusement circles during
his IL years before the public. Every
act was good, the company one of the
strongest small companies on the road
and the costuming elegant and appro-
pirate.
Every feature of the performance was
good and judging blythe continued ap-
plause met the hearty approval of the
audience.
1t is matter of regret the accommodate
ions of the opera house are so limited and
of such poor nature that it is utterly
impossible to do justice to an entertain
ment of any kind Hi Henry was un-
able to use the gorgeous silk plush dra-
peries which he carries for his first part
The scenery belonging to the house
would disgrace barn and is devoid of
any prefer tions to artistic beauty. 1t is
bad enoue L to have to endure the sight
of such ia indeed apologies for scenery
even while listening to first class show
and what the result would be with an
inferior company can better he imagined
than expressed.
The ventilation of the opera house
also need some regulating. Taken all
in all the opera house in its present con
ditions is disgrace to the city and the
only wonder is that the citizens of Ply
mouth ever get chance to see thea
trical company here. The management
of the house could confer favor upon
their patrons if they would take some
steps to restrain the whistling and
stamping with which the gallery gods
emphasize their applause. Some goot
man with hickory club might have &
salutary effect upon these persons be
! haviOr.

ENTERPRISE.
Something That Should Interest
Every Plymouth Citizen.

In speaking of enterprise, we are re-
fering more particularly to manufacture
ing interests, and will remark, if there
is anyone in Plymouth that has came to
the conclusion that they are no benefit
to community, it would repay them to
take day off, utilizing the time to go
and scan the different enterprises estab-
lished in our midst.
These are industries comparatively
in their infancy with rapidly increas-
ing patronage. The promoters of these
life giving enterprises are doing an ex-
tensive business, employ large numbers
of workmen, and men who live here
spend their money here, and help to
stimulate the financial and social ele-
ments of Plymouth.
We need more manufacturing indus
tries in Plymouth. If we wish to see
our beautiful city follow up the extra
ordinary advantages it has already at
tanned, everybody happy, with plenty of
money to buy the necessities of life,
business on the boom, all our citizens
with plenty of work to do, and each one
so busily engaged in their different avo-
cations that they cannot spare the time
to meddle with the business of some
else, do not ObStruct progress. Give
your assistance to any efforts that may
be put forth to make our city the habi-
tation of thrift and industry. Talk that
way, and be willing to use your money
in helping forward such worthy causes.
If in the near future, parties should
visit our widely known city, which
they will to learn of our advantages
which are second to none, give them
the benefit of what you know. You
will thus show them that you are a
wide awake citizen and that you are in
terested in one of the prettiest, best and
most widely known little cities among
the thousands that dot here and there
the most rapidly developing state on
the American continent.
But if you cannot do this, and would
prefer t. throw cold water upon any OF
all of the undertakings and advance
ments that might be induced to come
our way, why-well, get out of the way
of your more energetic neighbor any
how. If you have business out of town
at that time, or even day latter, il
would be better for the community al
large for you to attend to it at that
time.
But we hope and try to believe Ply
mouth has not one man within her CO.
porated limits that is "built" that way
This matter does not only interest those
who are property owners, but it is OF
vital interest to every man who has tC
depend upon his labor for livelihood a:
as well.
There is not the slightest doubt thai
by next spring, such opportunities vii
be offered. Will we as citizens use oul
best endeavors to advance the interest:
of Plymouth?

WORDS OF COMMENTATOR.
Rays of Sunshine Cleaned From Our
Exchanges, Commenting upon the
the Independent.

The News is in receipt of the MAR
SHALL COUNTY INDEPENDENT, new
populist organ at Plymouth, by y. II.
Zimmerman. The new paper is nice,
neat appearing, six column quarto, full
of home news, and editorial matter of
the populist pursuasion. The News
gladly accepts it as new exchange.
In fact while the News sincerely be-
lieves that the populist fad will have "a
short life, not unlike many other of like
character in the political arena or more
properly among the has beens yet it
also believes that it is these little "side
shows" SO called, which keep new ideas
before the American people and keeps
them from falling dead under the heels
of old political hobby horses ridden to
their death by the old political organi-
cations. In other words, it is alfred re-
freshing to read something new, even if
that something..does not coinside with
ones own ideas.-Nappanee News.
If the peoples party succeeds in
compelling the old parties to deal hon
estly with the people, they will have ac-
cOmplished mission that will prove a
lasting benefit. And they will. Ed.

What Causes Thunder?

The acknowledgement theory Of
the cause Of thunder satisfied
me- said a well-knOwn physician.
1t seems to me that, instead OF be-
ing caused by the vacuum produced
by the electric bolt going through
the atmosphere, it would be more
plausible to attribute it to the re-
verse Of cOntraction-to expansion.
l mean that the facts attending the
phenomenon OF thunder are such as
to warrant my putting forth the the
orv that the cause of it is the eX
plosiOn Of the oxygen produced by the
action of the electricity upon the air.
One of the arguments in favor of this
theory is the great amount of ozone
to be found in the atmosphere after a
thunder storm. Then, if it was con-
cussion Of the air rushing into the
cuu that caused the noise, heat
would be produced, whereas after
every peal Of thunder you will notice
a sheet Of am falls. showing that id
stead Of heat being produ,e ed the at
mosphere must get colder to produce
the great condensation can not
conce We how electricity Easing
through the atmosphere could create
a vacuum great enought to make a
noise like thunder. This theory came
t. me many years ago, before e.ec-
tricity was 50 generally used. Now.
the fact Of being able TO transmit
electricity though a solid iron with
out even heating it seems to Justify
INV theory regarding the formation Of
d vacuum -PittsburC Dispatch.

In England it is the rule for venl-
Giles to keep to the left on the road IN
stead of to the right, as with us. a
recent explanation Of the custom is
that ''in the good old times in Eng
land when stranger and enemy
were synonymous terms, the foot
traveller passed to the right that the
shield on the left arm might be in
terposed to ward off a ~treacherous
blow. and the right. or sword arm,
free to strike. Horsemen. however,
usually had mail to protect them, and
there was more safety in being near
the antagonist than in having to
strike across the horse. as would have
been necessary had they turned to
the right When vehicles came into
use later. the drivers instinctively
followed the old horseback custom
ana turned to the left" If this is
the reason for turning to the left.
why is it not general in Europe The
same condition existed in medieval
France and Germany As in England,
bnt in France and Germany, vehi-
cles. equestrians. and pedestrians all
keep to the right. The English ex.
PLANTATION is that vehicles keep to
the left so that drivers, sitting on
the right side Of the box, are directly
over the wheel, and in a crowded
thoroughfare car easily guard against
locking wheels with a passing team.
1t is remarkable that this advantage
in keeping to the left has not been
observed and adopted in other conn-
tries
