THEY DISAPPEARED.


About June LIST a young man about
10 years at age applied AT Upton
Stansburys tin shop, in the rear of
ketcham X Wilson's hardware store in
this city for a job lie said his home
was in Logansport, that he had wife
and parents living there. lie didn't
claim to be u finished mechanic. but
was handy with tools and had had
some experience at the trade. He
seemed quite pleased when Mr.. STAINS
bury told him ne could give him work
up to about Christmas and possibly
longer. In short time ms wife came
on and they went TO housekeeping il
some rooms rented to them by Mrs.
Confer, and shortly after that his par
ents were here and visited them.
The young couple were evidently
doing nicely and had mo- trouble iii
getting credit in numerous business
houses in this city. and everything was
lovely up to last Monday night when
he asked MIR. Stansbury for money
when he had just drawn his wages sat
urday night Alr. Stansbury asked him
what he had done with his money to
get rid of il SO quick, when the young
man showed him sealed tin box with
a little slot III the top, and told him
he put it in there and saved it. He was
promptly told that il was good idea
to save his money, but better one To
pay his debts first, ami as Mr. STAINS
bury had had some inquiries he re
Guested him to attend to them as soon
as possible, as he did not like to be
annoyed in that manner. This he
promised to DO saturday night when he
drew his next pay. But Saturday came
and the couple disappeared leaving
landlady, grocer, butcher, hardware aud
dry goods dealers all IN the lurch, and
no clue as to where they have gone.
His name is Truman {. Mcdonald.

A Stock COMPANY.

We note by the Kellogg Auxiliary, of
Chicago, that stock company has been
formed, at Pekin, ILL.,, with capitol
stock of $4,000, to be known as the
Tribune Publishing Co. Among the
stock holders, is Mr.. Wells +. Corey, ed
itor Of the Tribune of that place. If
the success of this new enterprise in the
least, depends upon the editorial man
of the ablest writer's in the Sucker State,
q man of deep thought, and one who
fearlessly advocates his honest convic-
tions without fear or favor. We wish
the new company the unbounded sue
cess 1t deserves.

The Valparaiso Messenger is respon-
sible for the following story that does
need any varnish:
Three years ago fine trotting horse,
valued at $500, was stolen from Abby
Barthel, of Mirrillville, Lake county,
and he spentS300 in fruitless efforts
to recover the animal. Yesterday the
horse came trotting home and immed-
lately rushed into the stable and ran
to the stall it occupied three years ago.
The horse is i'll bad condition and APP
pears to have travelled. many miles.

IMPORTANT EVENT
The Closing of the 4. Il. Conference Onion.
ing of our Public schools The G.. A. L.
starts for louisville.
From Mondays Daily.

Three of the most important events
that occur to-day, are the closing of the
st. Joseph Conference of the L. Il.
Church, the opening of our public
schools, and the departure of the
&. y. Ii s. for Louisville.
In the former, Plymouth no doubt
never saw such an enthusiastic gather
ing OF preachers and church workers
than has been within her borders since
ednesday last. Some of the most in
lluential and prominent ministers of
the church have been among us and
the cOmmOdiOus church on South Mich
igan street has been crowded to its ut
most capacity, and every night hundreds
have been turned away, or assembled
together in an overflow meeting. To-
day the greater number of them will
leave for their homes, and there is not
the slightest doubt pleasant recollections
will accompany them of Plymouth and
her people.
to the citizens of Plymouth, is the open
ing of our public schools. The yaca-
ton is ended and the routine of school
life is taken up by hundreds of our
children and their teachers. The
greater number no doubt take up their
lines of study enthusiastically, and
those, who are approaching the closing
scenes of school life, ARE looking forward
already to the time when they Will lay
aside their books in the public schools
and stand before the public in their
final farewell.
The people Of Plymouth are proud of
their public schools and those who are
at the head of this grand institution.
The INDEPENDENT extends its well
wishes to those who have this import
ant work in charge and wish them I'M
bounded success i'll their work.
Then again, one of the important
events to day, is the departure Of the
old war veterans for Louisville, Ky, to
attend the great reunion. About fifty
left this morning on the Nandalia line
III a special car. This reunion is con
sidered to be one OF the most nOticible
that has transpired since the war. One
feature more prominent, is the fact that
it takes place in kentucky, and that
the hospitality of those who bore arms
against the boys in blue Will be eX-
tended in its fullest measure.
The following people left on the
Nandalia $40 train this morning To at
tend the reunion at Louisville:

New Business Block.

Monday morning Brink 4 Mills
commenced the excavation for new
business block on their lots on South
Michigan street. This new edifice will
be twostory structure, with all the
modern appliances. The lower floor
will be composed of two elegant store
rooms, while the second story will be
arranged for living apartments. Water
and sewer service will be throughout
the entire building. This is another
record breaker for our beautiful city,
and by one of its hustling firms.

\ Peculiar Accident.

\ most peculiar accident happened
to freight on the Pennsylvania, east
OF Fort Wayne, Friday night. one OF
the huge drive wheels flew of and jump
ing clear off the track and engine it
went through a fence and spun across
Il field at a lively rate of speed until
it struck tree and came to stop.
In tearing loose from the engine it
took part of the air-brakes device
with it, thus disabling the air brakes.
The egineer saw the wheel lying
across the field and whistled for brakes
and the train was finally brought to Il
stop. How the wheel got clear of the
rail, held on as it is by heavy tange,
is mystery. Valparaiso Messenger.

worste1 goods to the United States were
4S425,iOO yards, compared with 9,475,5OO
for the first eight months Of 1894; and
the value Of the worsteds exported
from England to this country during
these same eight months was c. 900,
compared with only f7O4 49S for the
same eight months in the previous
year, Putting these figures in dollars,
It win be seen that the English board
Of trade credits the United States with
having bought $l2.652, 600 more worsted
goods from British manufacturers dur
ing the first eight months of this year
than during the same time last year,
It only needs a minutes reflection to
show what a great blessing to this

we should have had both the goods
and the money. But that kind of thing
