A Latter pay Paul Revere.


When Bud Hicks read OF Paul Re
we're, and Of the signal light
That shone for him SO bright and
clear, he told his chums one
night;
You watch our yard when you go by.
and if it's baking day
You'll see our secret signal fly, SO
come on in and play"
So, then they set fence rail up be.
hind the barn quite high
And tied to it handkerchief to see IL
1t would fly.
Nov, If you see the signal flag" said
Bud "by land or sea,
1t means the cooky jar is ulland
doughnuts, too, maybe"
| So, when Buds mother baked again,
the strangest thing occurred.
As soon as ever she began, that you
have seen or heard;
A white flag rose behind the barn and
soon from everywhere
Came boys of every sort and size TIL
ali his chums were there.
i And all around the kitchen door will
shouts and merry cries
They smelled the cookies browning
DER and swarmed about like flies
And some came through the backyard
gate, and some the fence woult
climb,
And some were early, some were slow
but all we're there in time.
Then Mrs. Hicks looked on the pore
and saw them with dismay.
II wonder how they knew" she said
bud has been home all day."
And oh. how busy soon they were
They filed the woodbox high,
They swept the porch and raked tn
yard and made the rubbish fly.
Sometimes they looked with longin
eyes when doors spicy-sweet
Were waited from the oven door an
by and by a treat
Came out to themr--a plate piled mig
II with cookies crisp and brown,
And Bud Hicks went behind the bar
and let the signal down!

New York, June 9.--The decisive
downward turn taken by the price
movement of stocks today Incl led
speculative sentiment to take account
~ unlaVorablc elements in the news.
The falid decline in southern Pacific
,in0n the announcement of the much
hcralded plan to retire the preferred
stock was taken as an object lesson
to the extent to which favorable de-
velopmcnts have been discounted IN
thc speculation. The retirement plan
left the private exchange of preferred
for common stock the most attrac-
tive for preferred stockholders and
made it practically certain that ii
would be followed by all the stock
holders. Such an exchange it was re-
lated. would leave the company's fl
nancial position practically where II
was. The affecting of a saving on
the present changes would depend
mon the new IN stock being
kept on q six per cent basis compared
with the seven per cen paid on the
preferred to be retired. An increase
I'm the common dividend rate to six
per ttlAt NiiNNNf lhRA Vt w -
chased at the price touched yesterday,
which was 1875, this return still would
be less than on Union Pacific at the
price and with the dividend already
prevailing on the present stock 1t was
this computation which involved no
now facts, that was responsible for the
contrary movement in the W. Har-
riman stocks. There was an apparent
shifting of holdings from Southern
Pacific into Union Pacific.
The government crop report was
OF some continuing influence towards
depression Of stocks. A distinctly I'M
favorable impression was created by
the outcome of the New York City
bond sale for which applications were
less than twice the anount offered.
The low price realized, which reached
only 100.71 on tho average was fur
Their cut by sales of the bonds when
issued on the stock exchange as low
as 100 Y.
The slight rise in the call money
rate was ascribed to the applications
for the New York City bonds mod
crate though they were. An active
demand has sprung up for funds or
time and rates are advancing. Dis
counts also rose in London and Paris

Horse Killed by Fall.

One OF team OF horses owned
and driven by John Group, who re-
sides miles northeast of this city,
was killed Saturday morning after
breaking leg by falling into an open
french on north Michigan street Fri
lay evening. Group was driving his
.eam hitched TO a buggy to his home,
when he turned the horses from the
middle OF the road on north Michigan
street at about o O'Clock D. IN. Friday.
An open trench lies on the side of the
road where a ditch is being con-
structed. The trench IS protected with
anterns, which were seemingly un-
needed by Group. Both horses fell
nto the trench, one upon the other.
Men were summoned from down
town, who with great difficulty re-
moved the animals The under horse
;ad fractured leg, and was hauled
TO a local barn on mud boat 1t

was a fine animal, valued at 5000

INDIANA SENATOR is LUCKY.

Appointment to Committee on

Senator b. F. Shively is slated Tor
hrst-class committee assignments.
Considering the fact that he is a new
senator and a member OF the minor
ity party, hrs committee appoint
ments will be eptaonally good
His major assignment will be place
on the Committee on Foreign Rela-
tions. Usually senator is content
to look upon a berth in that commit
tee as a reward or long period OF
service, and Senator Shively has
smashed precedents by landing on it
in his first month OF membership in
the Senate
Indiana will be the only state in
the Union to have two members OF
that great committee, which has jur-
isdiction over legislation affecting the
United States in its relations with all
the nations of the earth. Senator
Beveridge has been member OF the
Foreign Relations Committee for
several years Before him Charles w
Fairbanks, when a senator from In
diana, had place on it. With both
Indiana senators on the committee
the Hoosier state will occupy po-

the session OF the legislature that
ended recently, the Office OF city
treasurer IS not abandoned in Ply
mouth. The Thornton law provides
that the office of city treasurer is
abolished in all county seat cities, ex-
cept cities of the fourth and fifth

water works plant, the Office OF city
treasurer here will be continued.
AT present city taxes are payable
at the office of the county treasurer,
but the city treasurer collects all
water rents, light bills etc.
Under the Thornton law the re-

in Plymouth are eligible for re-elec-
ton, but it is not likely that many OF
them will stand as candidates for
such honors.
