Memorial Monument.

We had the pleasure Tuesday, of eX-
amining the plans adopted for me-
mortal monument to be erected on the
battlefield of Chicamauga, in honor OF
the battle fought upon that noted oc-
casion, September 20th, 1863. The de
sign is the result of plan originated by
Mr.. Jas. f. Houghton, of this city, who
not only was on this field of carnage at
that time, but is fully acquainted with
all the minute particulars pertaining to
that memorable occasion.
The monument will be constructed of
Bedford marble, standing fifteen feet
from the base to the top of the statue.
The figure surmounting the base is a
typical representation of a color SER
geant, standing with his eyes to the front
grasping the flag in his right hand in a
position of ground arms,' with the
left knee slightly bent as if awaiting
the order, "march." His cap is placed
carelessIy upon the head with the beak
turned up. Even the rough drawing
gives life-like appearance of the uni
form greatly the worse for wear. AT
the knee Is displayed a ragged edged
rent, that looks as though the soldier
boy had hastily utilized a needle and
thread between forced marches, while

the shoes speaks silently but eloquently
of the weary marches taken. Mr..
Houghton..surely had vivid recollec-
tion of the old color bearer when he
gave this description.
Just below the statue is a circle for
the location OF the state seal, while be-
low the seal is thrown out a shield upon
which viii lee inscribed as follow:
Twenty ninth Ind. Vol. Inft.. 2d
Brigade. ID Division, 20th Corps. Army
of the Cumberland. This position was
held by them from II a. IN. 10 about 2.
m, Sept. - 1863. Total loss of Regi-
ment at battle of Chicamauga. I73
killed. wounded and missing, out of
a total of 30.
This monument Will be placed at the
northeast corner, on what is known as
the Kelley farm at Battle Field Park.

graduates, a larger enrolment and a
higher per cent OF attendance than ever
before in the county.
We would ask the patrons of the
schools of Marshall county to assist us
i'll our effort to place her at the very
top. While school is on, let us make
school our business. Let every boy and
girl of school age enter at the opening
of the term, September %, and use
every effort toward regular attendance
and punctuality.
l take this opportunity Of thanking
the patrons of the county for their CO.
operation in the past, and the township
trustees and teachers for their vigilant
watch and their agreeable manner OF
carrying out my plans and suggestions,
and whatever success we may have had,
is the result, we feel, Of the harmony of
the county board.
And now, as the yearss work is done,
the summary made, we find the work
very satisfactory, and feel like again
thanking the patrons, teachers and
trustees for their vigilance, fidelity and
every courtesy shown.
am yours respectfully,

Base Ball.

While the weather has been exceed
ingly hot the past few days, the in
teresr in base ball circles is unabated.
And why should it? Plymouth has one
of the best teams in this section of the
state, and all that is necessary, is to give
this matter little attention, to make it
productive of good results for our city.
The past record Of the Plymouth ball
team stands pre-eminent above any
amateur team in the state, and although
they were defeated in the first game of
the season, it by no means indicates
that they cannot play good ball. At
the last meeting of the club, the man
agement of the club was transferred
from George Hahn to Mr.. J. X. Hough-
ton, and the future success of the team
will no doubt be an assured fact.
The prospects for game of ball in
Plymouth in the near future is prom
ised, and will be announced next week.
One thing is needed at this time, and
should be attended to at once, and
that is, well arranged ground for to
meet their opponents upon. When tax
ing into consideration the lateness of
the season, no better location can be
found than the fair ground. \ proper
ly arranged grand stand, with little
labor expended upon the diamond, Will
place our boys in a condition to meet all

An Enjoyable Affair.

Last Tuesday evening, the members
of the Y. =. c. l.. of the [. Il. church
gave an ice cream social in the base
ment of that church. From an early
hour until late at night a constant
stream of visitors who desired to taste
the delicious cream, which We'd with the
handsome young ladies that waited
upon the tables, for favors. In the par
lor above social intercourse was one of
tie leading features of the evening.
This society have assumed a goodly
portion of the church debt, and are
making noble efforts to raise the
amount, and if Tuesday evening is to
be taken as an indicator they will sure
ly succeed

Broke Her Arm.

The little daughter of Mr.. Rotzien,
the photographer, met with serious
and painful accident Friday evening
last, which resulted in broken arm.
The little girl, which is only about
three years old, was playing on the
porch, which has two steps leading up
to it, and in some unaccountable way
fell from the top step. In the fall her
left arm caught in such a manner as To
break it at the wrist. y physician
was summoned and adjusted the bro
ken limb, and the little sufferer is
getting along nicely under the circum-
stances

Quite a lively scrap took place on
Michigan street Saturday evening, at
which time Phin CASTER, who attempted
to separate the fighters, received very
severe bite on one of his fing"-s.
In his attempt to separate the dogs
he struck one of them over the head
with his fist 1t being a bull dog, it
was with some reluctance it relinquish
ed its hold upon the other dog. Mr.
CASTERS finger was Immediately at
tended to, and with the exception of
little pain and soreness which usually
attend such cases, no danger will likely
follow.
