An Old Soldier Passes to the CamI
ground Beyond.

An Old Soldier Passes to the Camp
ground Beyond.
Tuesday night at 800, Capt. Joseph
Collins, q venerable veteran of the
Mexican and civil wars and one of our
stauDchest and truest citizens, breathed
his last and passed to the camping
grounds beyond. His death, though
expected, was shock to the commun-
ity, and his relatives must surely find
consolation in the fact that 80 much
sympathetic concern is called forth.
Joseph Collins was born March L.,
1926, near Pittsburg, Pa " hile still
young he served In the Mexican war
until its close. Later, at the breaking
out of the civil war he enlisted as pri-
vste, but in quick succession held the
ranks of second lieutenant, first lieuten-
ant and finally that of captain. He
fought with his regiment, the Both
Ohio, at both Antietsm and Gettys
burg and accompanied Sherman in his
march to the sea.
His civil life was comparatively un-
eventful. At an early date he went to
New Philadelphia, o., where he met
and married Miss Margaret SHUTS. He
and his wife then proceeded to Indiana,
locating near TT. Wayne and finally in
Marshall county. He first became
identified with the business interests
by engaging in the lumber trade.
In every way he has been sn ener
getic and public spirited man. Some
years ago he was elected city marshal
and served in that capscity four years.
His acquaintance throughout the
county was, as matter of course, very
large.
His death was the direct result of
paralysis from which he has been a
sufferer for more than ten years, but
until two weeks ago he was enabled to
move about with comparative freedom.
The funeral took place at the
residence on East Caro- street Thurs
day at 2:30 p. 10.

warm weather causes disease begotten

Not only does the debris of the large
citv sewers infect the water, but dozens
OF private attachments distribute their
bur0en of filth at intervals all along
the river between the Zehner mill
premises and q point south of the busi-
ness center of the city. This is a state
ment of the facts, but the remedy has
not been suggested That is why the
physician pronounces it problem of
grave concern.

united in marriage with the young lady.
After living with her just nine days, he
decided that single blessedness was the

congratulated upon his timely dissp
pesrsnce.

4 New Industry,

plymouth has new industry which
will bring her more in touch with the
farmers than ever before. The new
creamery concern lately established by
Schlosser Bros on CAIRO street, is the
enterprise referred to. For many years
Marshall county has been considered q
good territory for dairy products, but
Schlosser Bros. are the first to put up
an expensive and thoroughly up-to-
date establishment in the county seat
with the firm purpose of building up
an industry.
To those ignorant of the creamery
business walk through their new
quarters is revelation. Creamery
machinery is as delicate as the works
of watch, but it is also very simple to
those mechanically inclined. The large
churn, the beautiful and expensive
cream separator and the milk testor
are among the things now in operation.
When the concern is running at it's
capacity it churns about 300 pounds
of butter per day.

Would Lower the Grade.

The members of the city council and
a number Of the property owners along
North Michigan street held consulta-
tion Tuesday concerning the depth Of
the grade to be established in the pres
ent excavation work. 1t appears that
number of lots along the way are
about level with or lower than the
grade of the street. These lots are
owned by DR.. Borton. Daniel Melon
aid, l.. A. Tanner, G. Ii. Reeve and
other prominent citizens and the en-
desvor of the council WAS to give
them the benefit of as low a
grade as possible. 1t is affirmed that
Michigan street could be cut down con-
siderable and still not be too low. OF
course, if the pavement were to be
placed at grade higher than that of
the present street it would mean that
the owners of low property must fill in
at great expense Every inch in
depth gained below the now established
grade would be the same as an inch
added to the elevation of their prop
erty
