years.
Al Clough was well known in and

To Mourn Their
Loss.

Word came to the friends Of Al
Clough on Monday afternoon that
he had been found dead at Elkhart.
His wife and four children we're here

miles north on the Michigan road.
They went on the evening train, ac-
companied by her brother, Oscar
Woodbury..
While his family was away, Mr..
Clough took his meals with the FAM
lily of his mother, usually, and when
he did not come for breakfSsf little
was thought of that, as he was not
working New Years day, and could
have oversight. Not coming for din

found in the cellar, in a sitting posi-
tion, dead. Heart disease was the
probable cause, as it was known that
he had been subject to some trouble

Fifty-Seven Years Ago.

Flfty-seven years ago Monday
W. w. Hill mixed his first batch of
dough and made his first loaf of
bread for the citizens of Plymouth.
He was then in the employ of Newt
on R. Packard, who was soon after
elected as Clerk of Marshall county,
and in April of the next year Mr..
Hill bought out the cooking utinsels
and apparatus from Mr.. Packard,
established himself in the business,
and has continued actively in the
same line through all these years.
For ffty-four years his business has
been conducted on the same place he
now occupies, though the new build

Goodrich Adams.

A wedding which was of interest
to large number of people occurred
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. A. E.
Adams, four miles northwest of
Plymouth at high noon on Sunday,
Dee. 81. The bride was Miss Hazel
Adams and the groom Mr.. Allen
Goodrich, "a son of Mr.. and Mrs.
N. A. Goodrich, who live north of
this city. Both families are promi-
nent in the community as well to do,
highly respected and of the best
character, and the young people are
of the same stamp. Rev. w. c.
Logan performed the ceremony in the
presence of only the immediate FAM
lilies and Mrs. Logan.
The couple took the sos O'Clock
Lake Erie train for Indianapolis, and
from there will go to Connersville
to visit relatives of Mr.. Goodrich for
time before returning to Plym-
Outh. Mr.. Goodrich is a mail clerk
on the Pittsburg road, and he and
his bride will make their home in
this city.
The couple did not get away from
Plymouth Sunday wit hout being well
riced and serenaded. They had hop
ed to escape this, but were not sue
cessful. Showers of rice, wheat from
the elevator, and the song of tin cans
started the newly welded couple on
their honeymoon.

modern in the way of machinery has
been added. Mr.. Hill points with
pride to a record such as he has
made, and has the distinction Of be-
ing the oldest active business man
in this section of the state. Though
somewhat advanced in years, Mr..
Hill is still enjoying fair health,
and is to be found at his place ready
to wait on customers at the usual
hours each business day. He has
associated with him his son Fred w.
Hill, who of course takes much of
the labor off his father, but Mr.. Hill
still keeps the run of his business
with the same care as ever.
Few men, if any, can look back
over a longer stretch of active bust
ness life. with so few davs of
absence, as can Mr.. Hill. He has
in the highest sense, attended to
his own business, and while his life
has been quiet and simple, he has
surrounded himself with hosts of
friends who are hoping he may be
spared yet a few more years, in
which to enjoy the ripe fruit of a
good old age, following life well
spent.

Little time was taken up with the
usmual preliminaries, the plans hav-
ing been well drawn by those in
command. 1t was an organization
convention from start to finish; a con
vention the like of which Thomas
Taggart heartily approves. 1t was a
typical Taggart convention.
Mr.. Kruger called the delegates to
order and after brief speecL Of vel
come declared the convention in ses-
sion, Mayor Lemuel Darrow, of La
porte, introduced resolution provid-
ing for temporary organization con-
sisting of a committee on credentials,
a committee on resolutions and a
committee on organization. The
resolution also provided that Senator
B. F. Shively and Congressman
Henry A. Barnhart address the con-
vention while the committee were
preparing their reports.
Senator Shivaly was given an en-
thusiastic ovation when he appeared
before the delegates. In addressing
the convention he confined himself
to the democratic ideals and prin-
eiples, also going into the present
political situation, somewhat, as il
appeals to him.

CHANGE MADE QUIETLY
Old officers Step Out With Clean
Records, and Invite Inspec-
tiou of Their
Work.

At twel Il O'Clock ST. day uight
.he legal change in officers at the
Court House took place. Clerk
Joseph yhitesell CAV. place to Ed
Kitch, George Mccoy took the office
of Auditor from Charles Walker,
Fred Myers gave up the Treasurer's
office to George A Maxey, and Geo.
Morlock succeeds Nathan Lee as
County Commissioner.
These changes were all quietly
made, Judge Bernetha administered
the oath to Mr.. Kitch on Saturday
before leaving for Rocheste-, and
the Clerk received the oath of Office
of the others. On Monday morning
all the new men were at their posts
and took up their several duties with
out any friction or noise of any
sort. The best of feeling being
shown by the ones who step ont for
their successors, wishing each
happy new year, and much pleasure
in the administration Of the busi-
ness each had taken up.
At the Clerks Office visitors viii
for the present find Mr.. Whitesell
acting as deputy for Mr.. Kitch for
a few months. The Clerks Office
has many complications, and Mr..
Kitch has been with Mr.. Whitesell
for several weeks getting the run of
things, and with such able assistance
he can assure all who have business
with this Office prompt and efficient
service. Of course Mrs. Whitesel, :
who has been her husbands able
deputy since he took the Office. VIII
be missed. Mrs. Whitesell has been
faithful and painstaking. courteous
and ladylike with all, and it has been
a pleasure to all who have had bust
ness at this office to have her back
of the coulter, always ready to a
wer calls for papers, and issue the
various documents that are asked
for. Patrons of this Office viii GER
tainly miss Mrs. Whitesell, and they
will hope that when Mr.. Whitesel
goes, some one as good viii come to
the place.
At the Auditors Office every body
in the County almost knows Charley
Walker, and since his reign his
friends have grown in numbers till
as he steps out of Office he goes with
a record of which any man may feel
proud The Auditors Office is per-
haps more varied and complicated
than any Office in the Court House,
and Mr.. Walker has been able to I'LL
the position with credit, and turns
over the place to Mr.. Mccoy in per-
feet condition. Mr.. Mccoy has been
in the Office getting lines on his
duties fer some weeks, and has chos-
en- for his deputy Earl Twomy, who
bids fair to become a valuable aid
in this department. For time the
new Auditor has retained Otto
Weber in his service, until all are
familiar with their duties. It is
likely that not another man in Mar
shall county knows as much about
the workings of the Auditors Office
as does Mr.. Weber, and he has been
most agreeable gentleman in deal
ing with all who had business there.

The committee on resolutions also
made no report. The committee on
permanent organization reported for
Senator Shively for permanent chair
man of the convention and j. A.
feane fer permanent secretary. The
report was adopted
Senator Shively took charge Of the
convention and the delegates pro-
ceeded to nominate Mr.. Kruger by
ing which there had been some gossip
during the last few days, was lost
to view. If there ever was a plan
locking to such action, those who
were backing it gave up early. No
sign of such move was apparent
either during or previous to the con-
acclamation.
The proposal to endorse Congress
man Barnhart for the democratic
nomination for governor, concern
vention. Possibly the Taggart forces
had something to do with squelching
the scheme, if there was one, believ-
ing it to have been a move on the
part of Gov. Marsball's friends. One
thing is certain, however, and 1t
deserves to be noted to set the con-
gresham right in this connection:
If there ever was a plan In his
behalf he had nothing whatever to
do with it and was not even appris-
ed of the move.
The district convention today was
the first held since Laporte was ad-
ded to the district; that is, since the
change in district lines was made by
the last legislature. By the same
token there were this time no dee
gates from Pulaski, I that county
now being party of the Eleventh
district. The Laporte county men
seemed to be in the Thirteenth; Of
least some of them were not at all
backward in so expressing them
selves. 1t is not strange that this
shouldbe true, for in the Thirteenth
there is democratic congressman I;
in the Tenth theree was "never a
chance" In referring to Laporte
county delegates it should be made
plain that they are simply "back
F" in the district, for Laporte used
to be in the Thirteenth.

Metsker On Hand.

Clay Metsker, editor of the Plym-
outh Democrat, was one of the early
arrivals and considerably in evidence
among the delegates Mr.. Metsker
has well developed boom on for the
nomination for lieutenant governor,
as the democratic editors of the dis
trict have reason to bear in mind,
1t was Mr. Metsker who entertained
them some months ago at a dinner
at the Oliver hotel; dinner caIculat-
ed to boost the hopes and aspirations
of Metsker. The editors, however,
did not pass resolutions endorsing
his candidacy, in spite of the early
assertions that such would be the
case. Whether or not William P.
o 'Neill, of Mishawaka, who is also
candidate for second place on the
democratic state ticket, and who is
former newspaper man himself,
had anything to do with killing the
resolution plan is unknown, but
there are rumors to that effect.
Mr.. O'Neill, whose candidacy has
already been actively pushed In
various parts of the state, was also
much among those present. He
evidently had his boom in mind all
the time and was not averse to let.
ting the fact be known.
The booms of the two, however
did not come into direct contact
The situation did not, therefore, be-
come embarrassing, even though il
is somewhat unusual for a single
district to furnish two avowed candi.
dates for lieutenant governor. And
another thing; Metsker and O'Neil
are conducting their individual con.
tests quite as if they were after
! first place on the ticket, instead o1
one often filled only after a call fol
volunteers.

Lincoln Way.

Last Monday morning the Full
ton County Bank began business
in the new building at the corner

it having removed from its old
home farther up town. It's now
one Of the most modernly equip
ped banking institutions outside

are to be commended for their
enterprise. The vault, which, of
course, is the first thought in pro
viding safety against fire or bur-
glars, is first class in every par
ticular. It's walls, which are
twenty-four inches in thickness,
are constructed of solid concrete
reinforced with strong steel bars.
Inside this vault are huge steel
safes, equipped with all the mod
ern appliances to battle the skill
Of burglars. The large heavy
door to the vault is of drill-proof
steel and pressure-bar system.
The Fulton County Bank has
not only provided for place Of
safe keeping Of your money, but
it has also made extensive provi-
sions for the safety of your pri-
vate papers, such as notes, deeds
insurance papers, &c. A large
number of these safety deposit
boxes have been provided, and
you may have your own box, in
which to store your papers, and
carry the key. After you have
deposited your papers and locked
your box, not even the banker
himself can open the box and get
at your papers unless you are
present with your key.
One of the special features of
their new home is public room
provided with heat, tables, chairs
stationery, pens, ink, &c, for the
free use of the public. A private
room and wash room is also pro-
vided, and a special invitation is
extended to ladies as well as gen.
tlemen to make use of these
rooms for business or for social
engagements.

A True Story.

DEAR EDIToR:-After having
spent some time hunting for deer
with the Fulton County Rod and
Gun Club, ! will relate a true sto-
ry of what Edward Brant and my
self saw on the hunt near what
we call the Shaw hollow. Three
deer within % ft of us one a doe
a large one, and two fawns, of
course no horns. The doe was ly-
ing lengthwise to our view, one
fawn lying with its head and
neck over the does back, the 9th
er fawn was lying behind the
doe presumably looking from us
toward Charley Sprowl, 80 yds.
below, and about same distance
in part. We looked at them per-
haps two minutes when they all
sprang to their feet and off.
Within GO yds. was man by the
name of Ed Murdock from Pitts
burgh, with camera in his pock-
ct; had we known this we could
have had a snnp shot of all three
deer in their beds. This was the
finest deer sight we ever saw in
the wild woods of the forest.
We saw quite lot Of deer and
fawns while hunting with the
Club people. They are a gentle
menly set of men all through and
regard the game laws. They
killed two bucks, one, a three
prong, the other, a spike buck.
