History Of plymouth Church.
This church was organized on April
%. 1885, by Congregational. At this
council the Rev. e. H. Stickney was
moderator. He and Rev. r. A. Beard.
ID. d., now pastor of the First Com
gregational church Of this city, are
the only members of the council which
are still located in this part Of the
country.
Prior to the organization of the
church services had been held by the
Congregationalists Of the north side
as early as January Of 1884, at which
time the Rev. o. c. Clark was pastor.
He continued in charge OF the little
flock until in August of that year.
when he was succeeded by the Rev.
William Ewing. It was under Rev.
Ewing. and largely owing to his eff
forts that the church was organized
in April OF 1885.
During the time that he was in the
passionate the congregation grew to
moderate proportions. He remained
until in April Of 1887, when he was
called to the state Sunday school work
in North Dakota. He is at the pres
ent time missionary of the Sunday
School Promotion society with head
quarters in Boston Mass.

This :dG;' 'as n,"n ~ owed out in
most OF the churches of the CITY with
much success and In the Plyrno,ith
congregational church it has been of
great value
The idea of this society is to bring
the men Of the church together IN a
social way and for the promotion of
church labors. q. This society has been
fully organized. A comfortable room
has been fitted up in the church where
the young men can have a home OF
their own and where they plan for
pleasure or for work. as
The church officers are grouped in
one board, filing both. the duties Of

TAX BACHELORS
and CHICDLfss.
Austrice May Have Law Com
pelling These to Contribute
More to Government.

In the search for new menas of
raising money to meet the rapidly in
creasing cost of millitarism, in which
European governments are generally
engaged England has gone furtherest
with her plan to levy higher death
and income taxes and to tax real es-
tateprofits, or the "unearned incre-
ment" . -y e
But it remained for Austria to pro-
pose the most unique scheme. In
the Reichrath a few days ago the fl
nancial minister, discussing the bud
get, asked for supplementary incom
tax on bachelors, widows and childlets
married couples.
Race suicide and voluntary bache-
lorhood have been attributed to the
prohibitive cost of supporting a wife
and family in these days. Militarism
has contributed greatly to this embar-
RAISING economic condition in Europe
and now seems to be trying to mend
matters.
The government can not reduce the
cost of living but it is at least able
to make things uncomfortable for those
who would shirk matrimony and it's
obligations. Its intention, however,
is hardly philanthropic. 1t has only
found a new excuse for taxation.
The plan that the Maine legislature
recently had under consideration was
better. There was no chance that it
would prove successful, but its pur
pose was humanitarian. The idea was
to tax voluntary bachelors for the pen
sioning of reluctant old maids.
OF course the difficulty in making
this plan work lies in the finding
woman who would testify that she
never received a proposal. The pen
sions might remain undistributed.
Trouble might also be occasioned by
women claiming the pension on the
ground that though they had receiv-
ed proposals, the offers were not such
as they could reasonably be expected
to accept.
And 1t would be too easy for bach
elors to swear that they had made
the three efforts necessary to secure
exemption from the tax and had not
been accepted.-Spokesman-Review

pleased to learn that there is at
least one dreaded disease that science
has been able to cure in all its stages
and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity. Cat
arrh being a constitutional disease,
requires a constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken inter-
nally acting directly upon the blood

census was taken. OF these 1884
represented single families. Only two
names Smith and Brown-were rep
resented by 5000 families and over.
Four per cent of the white popula-
ton were represented by nine names.
First came the Smiths-close upon, g.
900 families of them. A long way be-
hind, with less than 3,400 families to
its credit, came the clan of the Browns
Then came the Davis tribe. with 2,575
families to its credit while that of
Jones, only IA behind, pressed angri-
ly upon its heels. Next we're the
Johnsons, actually outnumbering the
falling short of them in total number
of persons, the Jones families being
more prolific. The Clarks and Will
iamses were wrestling for the sixth
and seventh posts in the race with the
Millers a close eighth and the Wilson's
bringing up the tail with only 1,765
families to their credit and 1897 indi-
viduals.
"A large proportion of all the
Names" says our informant, ARE
adaptations of nouns, verbs and other
parts of speech, and in general rep
resent the simplest Anglo-Saxon
terms"

The American Husband.

The American masculine claim of
absorption in his work does not in
the least justify such a condition.
Frenchmen support their wives and
still find time to go shopping with
them, too. Englishmen do likewise
and find energy left to place their
sons in school, energy to watch keen
ly the love affairs of their daughters
unhesltatingly bidding this or that
man BECOME; moral courage and ply
steal vitality life after the days work
to be, in fact as well as in fancy, the
head of the house." They have the
wisdom to leave hours for play, for
pure boyishness of living. And all
this may be observed in the same
middle class that with us turns the
whole issue over to the wife, ex-
pecting of her all wisdom though
knowing her sheltered youth; and all
vitality, to run and unceasing-
ly and unaided the whole ma
chinery of the family. No wonder
our women have nerves." No won
der they are becmoing more and more
restless lone of the first evidences
of strain.) more and more disconten-
ted as time passes. Masculine kind
ness to our women is sometimes so
tangled up with selfishness that there
need be no surprise that there is
some confusion regarding them.
Not that our men want the money
after which they are striving for
themselves for their pleasure. They
do not. They are almost notorious
ly generous. Our rich men give, give,
give; to their wives. their children,
to colleges to hospitals, to churches
until the whole world is amazed at
their generosity.
The habit and fury of work unrea-
soning illogical, quite unrelated to an
need is masculine disease in this

31-Foul Play is Feared.

1t is very much feared that Lieu
tenant Eugene r. Bennett, a son OF
Rev. and Mrs. J. A. Bennett, of
Utica has met with foul play in China
Bennett was until. recently a second
lieutenant in the constabulary forces
of the Philippines.
On April %, Mr.. Bennett received
a cablegram from Hong Kong, China.
purporting to be from his son in
which was the word sick" and ask
ing for a remittance of 5000. This
amount was sent to bank in Hong
Kong, China, but as yet no receipt
has been received for the money, and
it is not believed that the money has
been applied for AS Mr.. Bennett did
not know that his son was in China
he sent the money so that if game"
was being worked by some one to OBJ
tain the money they could not get 1t
unless they proved their identity.
Eugene Bennett was graduated
from Georgetown college three years
ago and in October of that year,
when he was 81 years of age he re-
ceived his commission in the Phillip
pine constabulary forces at Manila i'm
mediately after arriving. He finished
his course in five months and was
given command of a company at Ma
Mia.
He was stationed last year at Bon
gao province, Sulu, and was stationed
before his resignation at Ciasi in the
same province He resigned on March
81. A letter was received from young
stationed at Siasi in which he stated
that he would probably return home
by way Of Europe. He received $500
in cash due him for his services when
he left Siasi. This last information
was received through the government
authorities at Washington
A communication has been forward
ed to the consul general at Hong
Kong and the United States govern
ment is also making an investigation
from Washington in his case.
AS Bennett was in good health when
last heard from and well supplied
with funds on leaving the province
where he was stationed, the fact that
he has not written home since COM
bined with the cablegram makes his
family dreod foul play.
