This fact was quite notorious, and every
one in the city pitied the poor young man,
that, with such prospects, he should be com
PEELED to return to his former degrading occu-
patton. They advised him to run away, but
he was too honest to follow the advice, and
resolved to submit to his fate if he could find
no honorable means of avoiding it.
In this crisis of his fortunes the Minister OF
War came to him one day and told him that,
having heard Of his great nme and OF his ex-
traorrinary resources, he had come in the
hope Of being released from great embarrass-
ment. The Sultan, his master had suddenly
commanded grand review Of the army, and
consequence OF the non-arrval Of clothes or
dered from England and Leipsic, the body
guards were not all provided with their new
uniforms. "lf, therefore," said he, you can
produce within two days two thousand scar
let caftans with white facings of this pattern.
you shall share the profits with myself, and
/ will get you named army contractor to his
Majesty the Sultan. This appointment will
free you from your present obligations, and
will be but a step to higher promotion"
Nicholas promised to do his best, and before
the end Of forty eight hours the two thousand
caftans were punctually delivered. The Min
ister kept faith honorably, and three hours
before the expiration Of the captains leave
Nicholas received a large parchment patent,
whereby he was named Court and Army
Contractor 10 tne sultan.
No one was more indignant at Nicholas
good fortune than the captain. He could no
longer reclaim his apprentice, now that he
had been created a nobleman, nor compel him
to share his wealth with himself. He there
fore attempted to steal the grinder, but Mich.
olas called for cudgels, which came, and beat
the captain hard. Afterw ard the captain

lie flung on his clothes and hurried with.
out delay to his house; but found, to his grief
that his precious treasure-thc origin and
foundation of his wealth-was gone.
Still he resolved to do his best though he
feared it was too late, to recover his treasure.
Summoning his neighbors to his assistance
therefore, he went down to the river where
the ship had been lying.
But alas! she had long since set SAIL and
now had reached the open sea, where it was
hopeless to attempt pursuit Sick at heart
and deeply downcast, he returned to his
house, and from that moment he was of
course compelled to leave his orders unexc.
cuted and to break up his establishment
But Nicholas quietly bctook himself to the
country where he had time, in his cooler mo-
ments, TO reflect that he was better off than
he thought at first, having contrivcd while
his trade lasted, to lay up a considerable sum,
sufficient to pure .ase property on which
he lived till good old age, pouring blessings
on his old aunt and her still older coffee mill
Meanwhile the thief was sailing over the
sea and chuckling at his good fortune. He

INDUCED himself in thinking what a multitude
Of speculations he would embark in, till he
should at last be the first man in the land.
During this soliloquy he had begun to feel
hungry. and ordered the cook to serve dinner
without delay. The cook soon presented him.
SELF "a nice dinner it will be-" said he, with
a countenance full of illhumor; where am 1
to find it, pray? We set sail in such hurry
that we have not fortnight's provisions on
board. And this moment, when l went to
put some salt in your soup, l found to my
horror that there is not grain OF salt in the
ship"
well. WELL said the captain in great good
humor, make your mind easy about it. BE
assured we shall want for nothing; and in the
first place, l must get you some salt for the
soup"
He took the coffee mill down from the shelf
as he spoke, and said with great solemnity:
Mill mill! grind away;
Let us have some salt, ! pray"
The mill according to its wont began to
turn, and, to the captains great delight, forth
came a thick stream of salt. The cook opened
his mouth and eyes, but could not for his life
conceive how this came to pass, till at last,
when there was already large heap of salt
lying before them, he said that may do for
the present. and the mill if it pleases may
grind us something else"
The captain also, who saw that they had
INV oo'e thoukh W ust lo' u year ana u uty,
was disposed to stop the working of the mill
but alas, to his horror, it now struck him for
the first time that he did not know the words
necessary to stop it. In his terror and an
guish OF mind he grasped it for the purpose
OF stopping its revolutions, but it struck him
such blow upon the fingers that the blood
spouted out furiously, and he drew back
screaming with pain and alright.
1T must be some devil or hogbogln we
have got on board" cried the cook, who, as
the heap OF salt continued to increase, ran
away to the fore deck and told the sailors
what the captain had done
Meanwhile the captain tried every species
OF prayer and every form of words, but to no
purpose At last he flew into a rage and
drew his sword. You old nttletrap!" he
cried with fury, 81 will knock you to shivers,
and put an end to your magic at once" He
aimed q blow at the mill and struck it with
such rfiect that it flew into two pieces. At
hIst he was delighted with his hcrosm. but
what was his horror when he saw both halves
stand erect and both begin to grind away as
busly as the one mill had ground before, Uc
was struck dumb with terror and could mnl,c
no iurther effort to relieve himself "1
Meanwhile the mills continued to or,d
away buslly, and at last they ground snrh n
quantity OF sal i that the shin could NOT noot

Silly Nicholas cheerfully took his mill un.
der M his arm m and sauntered lesurely through
the city till he reached a 1uet and retired
spot fitted for his operations. He first made
e., large wicker cage, and placing his mill be-
lore the door, he repeated his rhyme:

o., Fine fat poultry now, pray."
1he mill began to turn and in a few mo.
ment out popped a beautiful chicken, and

cried out:
Bravo, mill! rest thee now,

As soon as this task was finished he lay
down on the grass beside his birds and fell
asleep, perfectly happy, Next morning he
word honorably, paid him dollar for each
Of the chickens, which were a rarity in that
country, and gave him a month to employ for
his own private advantage. Silly Nicholas
had observed in the market place large
wooden booth, where some itinerant iupclers
had held their exhibition. This he hired, and
he got painter to paint over the entrance in
large letters.
All Sorts Of Goods supplied here for Half.
price at Days Notice
Having made these preparations he placed
his mill in a quiet corner and sat down to
abide the result. Next morning a customer
presented himself
"Is it true, sir" snid he chat on a davis
notice you supply goods at half price,"
Certainly said Nicholas.
"1f so,' said the stranger, 'T, request YOU
will supply me tomorrow with six wagon
loads of corn. There has been a great deaTth
this harvest, and l shall pay you a hundred
gold dollars for it on the spot"
Agreed" cried Nicholas. "Let your horses
be here tomorrow"
He kept his word, and when the wagons
were loaded the horses could scarcely move
them from the door. The man gladly paid
the hundred dollars, and something over, and
went his way.
BY this transaction Nicholas soon estab.
lished a character and his mill was seldom
allowed to stand idle. He was in fair way
OF soon being a rich man, but what pressed
most upon him was that his months leave
was nearly out, and the captain was not will
ing to extend it, for he expected to be able
to turn his apprentices talents to his own
private advantage.

My Reply to the Gard.

| didn't intend to have much to
say regarding the battle which is to
be fought at the polls this week I'm
til today when [ received a postal
card sent me by the Incorporate
whiskey element of the city in which
they try to intimidate and scare me
into what / know has ruined many
homes and caused untold misery and
want to women and helpless children.
They say there is a license fee of
$500; we admit that. Then these
men. who say these fees make perhaps
a profit of say at low estimate
$4,000. That makes $4,000, and this
all goes into the hands of the saloon
keeper and to no one else. Where
does it come 'FRONT.' From men who
ought not to spend cent of it in that
way, as a rule-poor laboring men,
whose families need every cent of it.
I am aware many good men will
vote for the saloon, so will the very
worst drunken sots in our city. I
don u want to be classed with that
kind of society. Some will say, /
say any man that takes a drink, even
only once month, is drinking man
and must take his place along side

NOTIFIED
Keen Disappointment is Felt at The
Impossibiity of Marshall County
Competing for the Honors
of the State.

Marshall county will be keenly
disappointed that its representative
to the State spelling contest is sick
and unable to go to take part in that
great meeting today. Miss Vivian
Lewis of Walnut township has been
out OF school for three weeks with
the humps and is just recovering
enough to be out. She is there
fore unable to go to Indianapolis and
compete for the great state prize in
spelling.
1t will be remembered that Miss
Lewis won a brilliant victory over
the Representatives of the seven
counties of this district in the Dis
trict Spelling contest held at Plym-
outh on Feb Is. It was hoped at
that time that Miss Lewis would be
able to also win the State contest.
On learning that she was sick,
County Superintendent Steinebach
at once telegraph Miss Coda Eaton
of Elkhart county who is the first
alternate, to 90 to Indianapolis today
to take the place of Miss Lewis.
Jennings Gordon of St. Joseph coun-
ty and Robt O'Connell of Koseiusko
have gone and will represent the dis
trict in the contest which occurred
in the State House at two O'Clock
this afternoon. Mr. Steinebach did
not 90 to Indianapolis as he bad in
tended, because Marshall County s
representative was unabl to go.

Editor Republican:

Editor Republican:
In your daily issue of March %,
noticed an article headed, "From
the Wet Side.
The tone, temper and syntax Of the
article were certainly fairly good, but
the logic and reasoning extremely
short at both ends. Besides, the
writer makes some statments which l
do not believe to be true. He says
Everybody knows through common
report that conditions have grown
worse, instead of better under the dry
regime; that the longer Prohibition
is practiced the greater the contempt
for it becomes. :" This is not correct.
He advises the voters of Plymouth
to vote for saloons on March 81, ''aa
Plymouth and Marshall County will
get $500 year out of it. - Now,
let see. Can Money buy morals
Can money buy good moral charac-
ter2 The only place it can be used
for the latter is in securing a license
for saloon keeper.

With powers as far above the brutes

The licensing of saloons in this ma
ton has been a blight and a curse
ever since it was instituted.
1t should be wiped out, root and
branch. If the liquor traffic is wrong
in itself,' it should not be licensed in
any shape or form, though it brought
in all the dollars on earth. I be-
lieve tomorrow the voters of the city
Of Plymouth who believe in the great
est amount of good for the greatest
number of people, who believe in the
upbuilding of Plymouth morally and
financially, will not vote to fasten
five groggeries on their backs for the
next year for the paltry sum of
$500. Look before you vote. Be-
ware of tainted money.
