CUT BY FALLING GLASS.
Storm window Blown Out by Wind Strikes
Miss Marie English.


Marie English, the1ittle daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas English, had a
most fortunate escape from serious in
jury just before noon today. The
little girl was riding along on South
street near the undertaking par1ors of
Thomas Hansen. AS she was passing
under the windows the storm window
was blown out by the wind and fell
with a crash, striking the little girl
over the shoulders. The glass broke
into thousandlpieces but fortunately
the girl escaped withs' only two small
cuts upon her arm. The only thing
that saved her..from very serious injury
was the fact that she had been riding
very rapidly and another revolution of
the wheel would have carried her out
of all danger.

INCREDIBLE as it may seem, much OF
tn care1essness responsible for the
spread of scarlet fever thus far in Ke-

ported IN which the attending physi-
clan caused and allowed the infected

feet the air, thus permitting the
germs to be carried throughout the

has come to light in which, according
to the report, several of a family were
sick with the disease. and the physician

upon the door and permitted the chill
dren to go out before danger of con-
fagion was over. There are authentic
cases. says the report, of infection
from this particular case. We would

LapaZ BOy Writes of Experience.

William Steck, of Lspsz, who is in
the service of the United States navy,
is seeing some of the sights of the
world. Postmaster Shafer receives
letters from him regularly. He visited
southampton, England; Antwerp, Bel
GUM; Lisbon, Portugal; Gibrslter,
Spain, and according TO his last letter
his ship, Dixie, was at Villa Franco,
France. at the foot of the Alps.
While in England he saw crippled
soldier taken to the greatest hospital in
the world, from South Africa. He Wis
tied the museums of art and other
places of interest in Antwerp. He was
much interest ed in the coat of mail used
in the year 400 and the block on which
200 heads were cut off in one day.
The sailor lads were in the royal pal
ace Oct. y, on the birthday of both the
king and queen of Por ugal. Willie
saw the crown of gold and diamonds
and also the chair of gold and dia-
monds. While there he Witnessed q
bull fight, only ten bulls, three men and
one horse being killed. He thought it
was little more dangerous than a
game of base bali with the Bremen
boys.
At Villa Franco they met the MonoD-
gahels and James Gordsn Bennett
yacht and visited Monte Carlo, the
great gam bling place of the world. He

Uncle HeZ.

Frank Adams company, last night
gave a splendid performance at the city
opera house. A large crowd turned
out to welcome Uncle HeZ, and he was
given rousing reception when he
made his first appearance.
Uncle HeZ is comedy of much
merit and Mr.. Adams portrays the
character in the strongest possible
manner, never failing to delight the
audience.
The play abounds in amusing incl
those of Uncle Hez and the "Tslks-
phone" His work at the phone was Q
clever hit and sufficient to make the
audience wish he woGld 60 TO il oftener.
The first act closes with one of the
most thrilling of cimsxes when
Martin Thorn is surprised while lob
bing the store of Uncle HeZ, des
perste encounter ensues between
Thorn, Zsc Mullen, Uncle Hez and
Kate Marsden, in which Zsc is killed
and Thorn wOrsted.
The trick house and mechanical eff
fects fairly set the audience wild with
delight, and the conclusion of this very
funny scene was rewarded with round
after round of applause.
The specialties were clever and re-
pestedly enchored.

Newspaper War Is Near.

There promises to be a lively news
paper war in Plymouth before many
months. The Democrat, which has
heretofore been undisturbed in it's
grasp on the legal advertising, recently
announced that it would during the
coming year invade the daily field
ostensibly challenge to the Independ.
ent to commence contest for county
and city patronage the Independent
has so far desired to avoid such con-
tests. Ii left alone in the field that it
has so faithfully and satisfactorily oc-
cupied, such war would not occur and
party interests would not be impaired.
There are certainly no business men
who would be willing tc encourage a
third daily paper in Plymouth. 1t
would be tax upon them sDd there
could be no object in it for them. Pol
iticisne cannot afford to encourage it,
because all history in counties where
similar efforts have been made, show
page after page of party disaster.
However, the Independent has de-
cided that it will be ready to meet ell
the "mush room" growths that poke
themselves into the daily field. The
Western Newspaper Union and Inter
national Press association, which have
for nearly five years furnished the In.
dependent at this place and its pub
lisher's former paper for over four
years in another state with telegraphic
matter, has advised that The Daily In
dependent be published for 6 cents per
week from the date that third paper
is launched In Plymouth. AS these
concerns will shoulder the major por-
tion of the loss incurred, we will be
able to follow their directions and Issue
the same high grade daily paper that
we are publishing at present. 1t is not
TO be understood that we can afford to
sell the Daily Independent for less than
10 cents per week. There will be loss,
which will be partially sustained by the
publisher of the Independent, but prin-
cipslly by the Press association, which
has also business interests at stake.
This association informs that their
experience is that this is the quickest
and surest plan to put aD end to pub
lications that try to establish where
there is no field for them.

Big Price for Farmers Products.

Plymouth merchants inform us that
poultry, butter and eggs are brought
here to be marketed from greater dis
tance than ever before in the history OF
Plymouth This is due to the fact that
better prices prevail here than at the
surrounding towns The groceries are
at present making especial efforts to
get the farming produce, some of them
paying cents more per pound for but
ter than is being paid in surrounding
towns. Mr.. Swindell is doing his part
to get the poultry of the county mar
keted in Plymouth. He is getting
poultry at present from the vicinities
of Wslkerton end Nappsnee.

toward building up the city. Our mer-
chants realize this and propose to keep
up the good work.

that under the sunday hunting law a
