JAMES MARSHALL.DEOWK£D AT OHESTES PARK IN

ILLINOIS.

Tlie B odj Brought Home.—Besolutions of Oondolence.

I t is our snd duty this week to record the death of our townsman, Jum es’.Miir- shall, which occurred at Chester Park, Illinois, on W ednesday of last week by drowning.

Mr. Mavshall was in a boaS fishing. By some means he fastened the hook into his pants and in trying to- extricate it fell overboard. In his efforts to swim he wound the line around his arm thns pre­venting him from helping himself. Some boys saw him in the boat Ju s t before he fell in, and heard his cries for help. They immediately summoned help, b u ta ll to no avail, ns the unfortunate man had sunk to the bottpm. A rriving at the place, hU body could be seen lying on the bbttom, the water was so clear and shallow.

Mr. Marxhall was an in.surance agent, and a message was at once sent to hejyl- (jtiarters, and from there to his brotlier, who in tu r a telegraphed his family here* The body was brought here Friday morn­ing and interred in Riverside cemetery Friday afternoon. Rev. N. X. Clark ortlciat- ed. The Masons and Oddfellows took the funenil in charge as he was a member of both lodges. We join the w hole com­munity in sym pathizing with th e bereav­ed familv.

Jam es MarsluUl was born in Montreal, Quebec, Ju ly 10. 1W2. W hen a l>oy he moved with the family tO' New York state. In 1S70 he moved torNewmurket, ranuda. where he lived eight years. From there he went to M t Clemens, Mich., and after a sojourn of eight months came to Plym outh where liis .family hits since reside«l. In December. I860 he m arried Rosette La Grosse, at Rodman, X. Y. Four children blessed the union, being .lennie. Mary, ilu ttie and Stanley. The - three g*irls are married, the first two now living at Cadillac. IluUie, the wife of Postmaster Baker. living here, as is also the son Stan­ley. His wife also resides here. Mr. Marshall has been a Mason fqr 22 years, and an Oddfellow .since he has re.sjded here. He has been an iihsurance agent foV a num ber of years, and at the tim e of his death was agent for the E(|uitahle In ­surance Company, in which company he curried a policy, for $1.4)00.

WiiF.nK.\s: In the providence of God, He has '•eeri fit U> rcimjve from our Lodge an esteeiiieil member, in the sad and uii- expecte<l death of Jam es Marshall, and cause the family of one of our brothers to mourn.

Resolvfd: That we. Toiupiish Lodge Xo. 32. I. O. o . F.. e.xtend our heart felt -ympatliy to the loved ones left behind; and further

lifsoh-f'd: W hile we cannot see the reasons why this lx*loved brother wlio cheereil u- by his presence so short a time ago should be the first t<* go hence, wi* lielieve the comjnori Father, in His infi­nite wisdom ami iu^*rcy, does not attlict us except it be forA>ur gp i^ ; therefore be it further

Hfsohrtl: That we Ik)w submissively to His will and strive to carry out *the principles of our beloved Order, friend­ship, love and tru th ,'b y thw w ing around the family our best care an»l thoughts to their welfare. AVo moimi. with them in This our mutual loss, and shall ever cher­ish his memory^

As Given hy Eev Wallace Last Sunday Homing- .

Last Sabbath morning the jiastor of the Pre^]jj)'terian church spoke on the subject of,the church’s development and progress in this country during the last ninety years—IHOO to J81)0.

Ills texts were Matt 16, 10-18; Col l-18|; 1 Tim 3-lq. From these he emphasizedthe facts; first; that the church as an or- gamizatioii and jAUthority was of and from GodJ 2nd: hs position aprl place in the world] “the pillar and grouBd of thie tn i lh ” ; and 3rd: its permaueuce and growth,—1‘the gates of hell shall not pre­vail against it.”

T hence.he sketched the general out-' ward vie^l of the church and tlie faUe ideas of ijiany concerning it, and then proceede(l to give the facts and figU]res in the case, i s revealed in church recrirds, statistical j tables, and national census reports.

The orthodox churclies as represented by the seven great denominations, Metho­dist. Baj^tjst, Presbyterian, Lutheran, Congregational, Episcopal and Roman Catholic have increased enornmu.sly since 1800, in efiurches, members and w'ealth. From 180p to 18,50 the p<)pidation increas­ed nine fdld, while the evangelical com. municant^ increased *27 fold; from’ 18T)0 U) 1880 tlie population increased 116 per cent, and levangelical communicants 184 per cent, j The liberaT churches on the other hand “have been relatively re tro ­grading.” ;

The Unitarians claimed in 1840, as parishes, 24H: in 1880 only 3T"), an in­crease o f 25 per cent in forty years, ns comjiarediwith the 250 per cent made hy the evangelistic churches in the same time. The Universalist churches in 1850 were lOfioJ and only !K56 in 1880; an actual loss of 1 i:jj in thirty years. The Christian church, (Unitarian Baptist) also fell from loOO parishes in 1850. to 1200 in 1880

From lftl80 to 1800 the population in- crea.sed 25 per cent; and church mem ber­ship 42 pe

An Interesting Letter Trom the Health; Ofdcer.

/ . / F E / X S ^ y i A ^ X E .,

One of the most beneficent insiitutions ever eshiblished in this world of ours U life inAirance. I t is one of the grandest schemes ever concocted by mortal inan and the more, it is invest!j^ated tjhe more i t recommends itself to the unseltisK and philanthropic mind. I t would be a wise step to require every young man con­tem plating m arriage to insure his life as'a qualification for license. I t would be a good policy to re<iuire the father|of everj’ im m igrant family to insure bis life for at least $2000 before perm itting him to land on our shores. W e believe that compul- sorj' insurance would l>e almost as con­ducive to the public good as compulsory education. I f the state governmeait would provide an insurance of say $2000 for every m arried man ami then put up­on him a poll tax sufficient tO/mcet his as­sessments it would -not only l)ring the reckless and thoughtless into jharmony with the realities of every day life, but) it would, in a measure, do away >yitli poor- houses and that kind of charity which is a disgrace to civiUzation. As a question of honesty, how is a poor man who is in debt going to pay his debts if he dies un ­insured? On the othef hand if he is irf*- sured for a thousand or two thousand dol­lars, there will be enough to pa\* his funeral expenses, cancel what 'd eb ts he may have contracted and leave his family comfortably situated.

W e believe every man shouM carry life insurance, especially those in m oderate circum stance. I t is the most sensible way of ridding our country of paupers, it is the easiest way -of distributing money amongst the people whom it-w-i 11 benefit and, last of all, it will be a crilinb of com­fort to a dyin'*g m an’s ^oul to know that, when he is gone, his family will be pro­vided for.

N elson 's W orld Show Coming.

This place will soon be the centrojfor the crowds to assemble to celebratecircus daj*. On this otrcasion more thuu any other dothe families from all the surround­ings come in to |speml the daiy, do their miscellaneous trading, call oOj friends and then visit the circus. There is a magnet connecte»l with the name circus tliat draws from far and wide, in fart we all feel like putting on our best and joining ^ e crowd bound for the circus lot, w'hete all th^ sights are to be seen. The visit of the tra ­ditional circus show’ likewise brushes up business for our merchants, as the ir trade from the counti^' compels extra clerical help brought in requi.sition (o attend the buying throngs, and everybody wears a 4th of .July smile. Such will be the case Monday, May 2Sth., when Nelson’s World Show visits Plymouoh and shows on the fair grounds. The parade, the: music* the clattering of horses feet, the jingling of armor, the gay cplors spangled in the sun­light, the flying fUgs, the merrj* laugh, all cause enthusiasm and bring “halo” to th e ear. and enjoym ent for a day to thou­sands. .Gala is circus day, grand the rest from lalwr and work, let all be amused. W e have one life to live and the x ircus comes only seldom, while 25 cents is a dim inutive charge for so much. The press and public speak h ighly of the N el­son establishment. Every act in the one ring is a gem, and plenty is Ipffered for the small sum you pay.

The prevalence ot* small-pox in Chicago and its appearance' a t several places in* Michigan has led our State Board of Health to recommend to each^and every local Board of IleaHth a general vaccina­tion and t^vHccioation of all persons not successfully vaccLoated within five years.

The rarity of sm ill-pox in yur state for several years has led to a feeling of secu- rity.and it is feared, to neglect of vaccina­tion,, resulting in an increa.sed proportion of inhabitants who are not protected by recent vaccination. This m ight make possit)le a, wide spread epidemic, if sm all­pox should enter the state in such a man­ner that exposure Ito it should be general as is favored by improved facilities for general and rapid travel through and about the stiite. The proper prevention of such a calamity is general vaccination, and revaQcinationj of all persons not re­cently thus protected.

While^nd local epidemic of small-pox is feared or expected, as a m atter of pul) lie and individual safety, and in accord­ance with the recommendation of the State Board of Health, the commort coun cil of the village o f Plym outh in regular session May 21,^1894, by resolution in structed the health officer to offer free vaccination, with bovine virus, to all children or persons unable to pa\' for same, and to recommend the general vac cinution and revjiccinatioii of all persons not successfully, \7iccinated within the past ^vo years.

Who should bo vaccinated? Everybody ol<J and young, or his own interest and that he may not become a breeding place for the distribution of small pox to oth ers^ should seek that j^rotectipn from small-pox which is afforded by vaoeiuV tion alone.

Who should ni^t l>e vaccinafeel? Unles.s exposure to smafl-pox is .believed to hare titkeu place or likely to take place, teeth iug cliildren. pi^egnant women, persons suffering with m|eusles,,scarlet fever, ery sipelas, or susceptible to and rc^^ently ex

thest* diseases, .person- kiu disease or eruption eble persons iiot*iu''good

posed .to one of suffering with and in general, fhealth should not be vaccinated.

W hen should persbn be vaccinatetl ? The sooner the better as a rule, and es pecially w henevir there is much liability of expo.sure to| smiill-pox. Children should be vaecinlafed before tle y are four m onthsjold; thoke who have never been vaccinated shoulki. w ith excoi>tions nl>ove made, lie vaccinated at once. In general to insure full p|*ot)ection from smali-pox one sihcjuld be vaccinated as often as ev ery five years. !

I t has been flound that of those who have sipall-pox the proportion of deathsis very much less dmong those who have three or four good vaccnation scars than among ithose who have but one scar.

Plymouth Rock Masonic lodge, No 47, visited the Farm ington lodge M iiyl2thand while there, Dr. Collier was tlije recipient of a beautiful paslma.stefr’s jewel, with the doctor’s monogram at the head and two diamonds beneath. The v?hole thing wa.s a complete surprise to the doctor.T. B. W hitbeck, who made the presenta­tion address, started at the front part of the hall and walked down to where the doctor was. sitting, at the same time addressing him. Not until he had halted beside hini did the dbctor real­ize it was he to whom.-tlie choice words were spoken.

Mrs. M. M. W eeks, state lecturer of W. C. T. U. held two successful services last Sabbath, one in the afternoon to young people, apd one in the ^vetting in the Baptist church, on the subject, “The Two Paths.” I t was illustrated by a large painting on w'hich the chief items in the two paths were elaborately drawn.

I T he lecture w’as lengthy but interesting, and was listened to by a large audience. Mrs. W eeks has m astered her work per­fectly. !She has t h a t ' necessary faculty, to become a ’successful teacher ajid in­structor, of making friends and winning the love of all. ; H er pleasant ways in ordinarj* life are fully depicted while de­livering an address, and though one may not know her, she draws her hearers so •closely to her she makes everyone feel ■‘on speaking term s’* with -her, and the lecture is thus more enjoyable oti account of its sirmlarity to a quiet evening’s ch a t

The experience entertainm ent of the W. C. T. U. in the Methodist church, was in some respects u very entertaining af­fair. The sing ing^nd recitations pf the little folks were .very good, but the “ex­perience” part of It was ratlier a failuife. Most of the members failed to come to time, so far as confession as to , how they had earned the . money was concerned, though most ’ of them contributed the^ir talent, little or . much. Altogether the handsome sum oF i^2^.0d was realized, of

hicfa the Misses Pelham contributed nine dollars. T heir experience was ■gracefully and w ittily rendered in ver^e w hich each recited alternately. I t tvas a vivid presentation of their successful fail­ure to capture Plj-mouth w ith two e i^ ti- tainments. If all expenses had been paid they would have been minus mu(jh filthy lucre, but owing to the kindness bf their creditors, they were able to turn th e ’handsome surplus into the W. C. T.U. treasury. Miss Ada Sa&>id also distin- guilhed herself by the clever recital of “A F rog up a T iw “ the moral of which was a useful lesson to too ambitious mortals.
