Ing the business mems association into a
commercial club. This committee. as
soon as possible will report to the asso-
citation the decision arrived at. While
the board of directors of our association
are all good capable men. and are all
willing to work in the harness wherever
necessary, il is no doubt a palpable fact
that we have an excellent corps of Off
GERS. We predict for our city a goodly
years work under the leadership of such
competent business men.
The legitimate schemes that are used
to increase the circulation of publica-
tions, are numerous and every newspa-
per man will accept every possible plan
that will, in his estimation, bring forth
good results. But We will give the cromo
to our predecessor at Lemont, Ill. He
is now offering a box of pills to each
new, or paid up subscription, as an in
ducement. There is no doubt in the
world that he realizes they are in dire
need in this community. They need
something in that town to cause them
to get move on themselves.

THE Cork Man, made his appearance
at the Opera House Wednesday night,
and was greeted with full house. To
attempt to portray the magic effects of
Herbert Cawthorn to those who were
present would only prove a dismal fail
ure. The entire company were excep-
tiOnally fine in all characters taken, and
the entire evening was filled with side
splitting and ludicrous predicaments.
The incidentals We're all good, itemizing
of which would take to much space.
But Cawthorn won the hearts of his
audience, and will always secure a
hearty reception in Plymouth.
With the loss ofthe Chicora still fresh
in the minds of the people, comes the
report of the loss of the Elbe, North
German Lloyd steamer in the North sea
due to collision by the Steamer Crathie.
The report which at present is meager
but authentic, gives the loss of life at
over three hundred. Twenty minutes
after being struck the steamer went to
the bottom. After striking the Elbe.
the Crathie, according to reports, backed
out of her position and proceeded on her
way, not even trying to ascertain the
amount of damage done. Such neglect
and inhuman actions should be dealt
with to the fullest extent of the law.
Constable Miles in attempting to
make an arrest yesterday forenoon was
forced into foot race Seeing that the
prisoner was gaining on him, he looked
up the street for assistance in making
the capture. Seeing DIR. Kaszer near
by, he called upon him for aid. The
doctor was too fleet on foot for the vic
tim, having made successful race last
fall for coroner, and after running about
two blocks, caught and held him until
Constable Miles came up and took him
in charge. There is some talk of the
DIR. challenging George Grant to five
mile foot race for the championship of
he did yesterday.
In cases of fire it would be advisable
to locate the ward in such a manner
that the location of the confiagation can
be understood by the department and
is one of the important necessities for
prompt action. When fire is discov-
cred, whether the alarm is given by the
whistle or bell, the short, quick, signal
should be given to notify the depart
ment of their need. a sufficient time
should elapse between the alarm and
the point of the fire. When the ward
is given, short whistles with pause, so
as to count the number. 1t is readily
understood that in case of a fire prompt
action is necessary, but GOODNESS and a
proper signal is what wins.
There is too much faith put in that
injunction of Solomon's SO often re-
peated: "Train up a child in the way it
should 60" The fact is, too many peo-
pie are inclined to train in the way the
child should not go. Children have
rights the same as men ana women;
they are entitled to degree of liberty,
enough anyway to give full scope to
