of body and quite willing to make a
balloon ascension at any time providing
he gets his price.
The fall which Williams received
though severe was not productive OF
enough evil to contine him to his bed.

LACKED A QUORUM.
THE SPECIAL SESSION OF THE
COUNCIL THURSDAY
mon EST"
Aldermen Reynolds. Kuhn and Harris
Were Unable to Attend, Hence No
Quorum Toothache. sickness and
Prayer Menting Caused 1t All.

The Common Council was to have
met in special session Thursday for the
purpose of co attracting with the Famous
company of Chicago for electric light
ing. But there was no quorum. There
was large attendance of citizens, all
anxious TO see what turn affairs would
take. The mayor, Aldermen Leonard,
Morris and Dickinson were there at the
appointed hour, but the other members
did not appear. Mayor Jones discussed
whispered conversation. The city clerk
was sent to the mayors law office for a
legal authority on the matter of COM
polling the absentees to be present.
The advice of the city attorney was So
licited and after half hour the mayor
concluding that he could not compel
the absentees to present themselves,
dispat ,hed the city marshal to their
homes TO request them TO come up to
the city hall. But they did not come.
DR.. Reynolds had the tootharhe; Alder
man Kuhn was attending SICK folks in
his family and Dan Harris had gone to
prayer meeting. So there you are. The
mayor then declared the meeting sd-
jOurned, his only alternative.

Plymouth Rich i'm Names.

Plymouth might properly be called
the city of classical names. 1t will be
noticed that while other urban centres
have vast number of naked names
such as North Side school house, First
street, Second street and SO on ad
infinitum, Plymouth is rich with a
classical and appropriate nomencia-
ture. For instance, instead of desig-
mating our two school buildings, one on
the South Side and the other i'm North
Plymouth as respectfully North and
South Side buildings we speak of them
as the Webster building and the Wash
ington building. A number of our
streets are named after the presidents.
Thus in North Plymouth we have
Adams, jefferson, Madison, Monroe,
Jackson, etc. In South Plymouth we
have the aristOcratic and high sound
Ing Webster Avenue and here and
there we have such names as Walnut,
Thayer, Sophia street, Gilmore Row,
which are not altogether barren of dig
nifty or suggestion. The very name of
Plymouth itself is classical illusion to
the landing of the Pilgrim Fathers.

Sow Attacks Little Teresa Martin.

Last Saturday evening Tressa Mar
tin, the daughter of VIM. Martin, OF
South Plymo nth, was attacked and
badly lacerated by vicious SOW. The
injuries are chiefly confined to her left
thigh, her wrist and head Though
serious, they are thought not to be
dangerous. In brief, the accident oc-
Cured as follows: Last Saturday
the little girl spent the day on the
farm of her grandfather, Geo. Riddle.
She was allowed go the barn alone to
gather eggs and while returning to the
house crossed the path of the SOW and
its brood of shosts. Unluckily the
little girl approached too near the
wicked brute and was set upon before
she was hardly aware of what had
transpired. Her screams soon brought
assistance, not however, until she had
been badly bitten as above stated.

his forehead, cleaving the top part OF
his head clean from the rest of his

is terrible example of what whiskey

affirmed, or the accident would have
been avoided. Several times in the

trains and had been put off. He was
