 Thursday night about 12 o'clock a two story frame residence on South First street. belonging to A. A. Mar. tinez, was destroyed by fire and the tenants lost everything they owned Mir. Martinez's brick residence ad. Joining was somewhat damaged al. so. The front of the first story was occupied by Charles Kitr, who los, everything but suit of clothes; it.e rear portion was occupied by Peter McHarren and wife, who lost portion of their effects, and in the upper story lived Jose c. Uunes and wife. The former was at work at the smelter, and Mrs. Numes was awakened by the noise outside. See ing she had no time to save anything, she snatched up a hundred dollars gold and her husbands gold watch and escaped 10 the awning in her night robe. Failing to get assistance. and finding her hair was beginning to singe, she bravely slid down an avn ing post just in time. The fire boys were promptly on hand and rendered good service In saving adjoining buildings. The losses so far as the Herald could learn, were about ST.. | 900. The heaviest being A. A. Mar tinez s3!000 on the property; F. San. doval 6 Co., Nogaies, s1000 on bug gies; Compania Eyplotadora de Maderas, Guaymas, s1,000 on doors windows and lumber; J. c.

 Mrs. Nunes, who is composrtor In the Herald office. has full measure oi
 sympathy from all connected with ths establishment.
 The fire is thought to be of incendi ary origin, the general belief being that coal oil had been poured upon { high fence built of pine siaos ant fired. There was no insurance

A FREE LANCE.

The announcement of the new man.
ager Of the Plymouth Chronicle, vir-
tually declaring that his paper will
hereafter be independent, leaving the
Tribune the sole republican paper in
Marshall county, seems to astonish
some Of our contemporaries.
The Goshen Times, (republican)
says:
1.-The Plymouth Weekly Chronicle,
republican, has been sold by Editor
Cochran to JJhn G. DAVIS, who an.
nounces that it will hereafter be a
free lance. This is the paper started
to punish the Tribune for its independ-
ence last year, and Frank w. Boss,
one of the republican candidates for
district chairman owned stock in the
company"
The Goshen Democrat comments
as follows:
1.-The Plymouth Chronicle, weekly,
has been sold by Editor Cochran to
John G, Davis. The latter announces
he will be free lance Walter Brown
and Abe Brick were Instrumental in
starting the Chronicle to punish the
Tribune, the republican organ of
Marshall county,"

The District Guardianship.

The vigorous and yindictiye pro-
nunciamento recently credited to Wal
ter Brown in reference to his selection
once more as chairman OF the republi-
can district committee, while it has
not settled the question as TO whom
the convention may select, certainly
has so arranged matters that Mr..
Brown cannot be his own successor.
A more unwise or uncalled-for state
ment has seldom been placed before
the public, and the result will be to
select some one else for the position he
claims to be his own just as much as
though he had a written contract for
the place. The oictatorial tone in
Mr.. Browns interview published in
the Elkhart Review would make it
necessary for the republicans, should
he be selected. to shoulder a personal
controversy right from the Start-a
handicap that 1.-The Indianian" feels
certain will not be entertained for a
moment. 1t is the custom in all par
ties-especiaIly SO in republican man.
agement-to cultivate harmony in the
ranks, and in every way to avoid such
a discordant condition as Mr.. Brown
proposes to introduce right at the be-
ginning Cf the coming campaign. The
article referred to seems to carry the
idea that Mr.. Brown not only owns the
republican party so far as the Thir-
teenth district is concerned. but. that
he has mortgage on it for the posi-
tion of chairman of the district COM
mlttee.
1t will be the duty of the meeting
to preserve the harmony that has al
ways existed in the Thirteenth dis
trict so far as republicans are concern
ed, any other course would be suicidal
Indianian.

Electrical Features at Elkhart.

The rain storm which begar
early Wednesday morning and CON
tinued throughout the day, developed
electrical features at Elkhart. At
w. Schooley's grocery, the delivery
horse was being taken back to the barn
by Arthur Bickle, am just as they
reached the entrance to the stable the
electricity seemed to leave the tele-
phone wires and shower down about
them. The horse was knocked down
and on regaining its feet ran away.
The boy was not severely shocked.
People in the store felt the shock
greatly and a woman on a neighbor-
ing back porch was so badly shocked
that she could not get into, the house
unassisted.
There was miniature cyclone in the
business portion CT South Bend and
considerable damage was done to the
show windows of business houses.

Owen UnQer Married.

The San Francisco Examiner says:
Miss Martha e. France, a beautiful
young lady. who has been a teacher in
the Oakland public schools for several
years past, started for Salt Lake City,
last Sunday night, and was there
married to Owen Unger, wealthy
merchant and banker Of Bourbon,
Indiana. Upon her arrival at Salt
Lake she was met at the station by
Mr.. Unger, who had arrived from H.
diana few hours earlier. The couple
proceeded directly to the parlors of the
First Congregational church, where
they were married by the Rev. d.
Simpkins, the pastor. They started
east from Salt Lake and will reside at
Bourbon.

Narrow Escape From Death.

John Peterson, residing between

escaped being killed at the Jefferson
street crossing Of the Lake Erie rail-
road in this city Wednesday evening.
A freight train was standing on the
track and Mr.. Peterson thinking
there was no danger attempted to
cross when the train without warning
backed and smashed his buggy throw

the combined efforts of the train crew
to disentangle the wrecked buggy

Carrie Nation Unmasked.

When Mrs. Carrie Nation started
out on her individual crusade against
the saloons there were thoughts that
while she might be cratic, she at
least had honesty Of purpose. In
view of her latest method of drawing
public attention, that Of appearing at
the theater In a production of a play
named "Hatchetation," In which she
makes the scene Of destroying saloon
with Ratchet a feature, any sym
pathy she might have had among
temperance reformers must pass away.
Her Ratchet scene won great applause,
and she afterward passed through the
audience shaking hands and selling
miniature hatchets. Whatevere bel
motive. every good woman must feel
that Mrs. Nations methods are to be
deplored.
The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1903-11-19

The Cuban reciprocity bill will pass
the house In few days but it would
take a very good prophet to foretell
when it will pass the senate. That it
will pass the senate sooner or later DO
one doubts, but the minority will i'm
prove the opportunity to talk tariff for
campaign purposes, and the end may
not be reached at this special session.
nor indeed till far along in the winter.
There are republican senators who
secretly encourage the democrats to
oppose the bill, but these republicans
dare not come in the open and stand
up against the administration. The
republican leaders of the senate pro-
pose to adopt rule which will cut off
all tariff amendments, but this unfor-
tunately will not cut off tariff speech
making.

Will Run All Winter.

The Great Western canning factory
Delphi's new industry, has been run
ming at full capacity for the past two
months and has been giving employ
meDt TO all the surplus labor that
could be found In the city and vicinity.
The tomato crop was a great success
and the farmers are well pleased with
the returns Of their first experience in
raising tomatoes extensively.
The factory is the largest of its kind
west Of Plttsburg. The vegetable
season is drawing to-a close, but the
factory will run all winter in putting
up cereals and making hominy. The
hominy department. is unsurpassed in
this country and nearly hundred
people will be employed this winter in
putting 1T on the market. The fac
tory will be enlarged so that 500 or
600 persons can be employed next sea-

Larger Pensions For Widows.

Congressman Holiday of the Fifth
district, proposes to make fight in
behalf uf soldiers widows. There is
now law on the statute books giving
soldiers widow, whose income from
year, pension OF S. month. Mr..
Holiday says.
II shall introduce a bill increasing
the widows pension to 81 a month
and providing that every widow whose
income does not exceed $500 shall be
eligible to pension. The bill will
apply, as now, only to those who were
widows before the act of 1890 went in
to effect and whose former husbands
served ninety days or more in the civil
war.
81 think that the government
should take good care of the soldiers
widows. A man can usually hustle
around and make some sort of living,
but God pity MANY poor, dependent
woman who has to fight the battle of
life without assistance, My bill will
not apply to women who marry soldiers
nowadays, because L do not believe
that the government should offer that
kind of a premium on matrimony"
