LAKE BAIKAL A BIG PUZZLE Varied and Peculiar Animal Lift Found In Body of Water In Central Asia. The riddle of Lake Baikal, In cen tral Asia, is similar to that of Lake Tanganyika, In central Africa. In both cases a large body of fresh wa ter remote from the ocean contains or ganisms apparently marine. Both fakes, again, contain a very large num ber of species not found elsewhere. Lake Baikal contains numerous salm on and seals,. as well as three species of herring. It also contains a few mollusca of apparently marine forms. One of the most remarkable fea tures of the lake, perhaps, is that al though it is frozen over for about fire months In the year the animal life is extremely abundant and varied. This may be partly accounted for perhaps by the existence of hot springs. One of "the latest attempts to an swer the riddle of Lake Baikal Is that of the Russian investigator, M. Berg. Of the thirty-three species of fish found in the lake he finds that four teen are peculiar to it, while nineteen have a wide distribution in Siberia and Europe. Many of these peculiar species are without near relations any where. Of the mollusca 90 per cent, are peculiar. M. Berg does not think the facts demand the hypothesis that the lake was once marine. He believes that It has always been fresh and that the fauna peculiar to it has had a two fold origin. A part has originated in the lake itself during the long ages of Its existence, and the rest is a portion of the prehistoric fresh water fauna of Siberia which It has preserved. Japan Advertiser. QUEER BLUNDERS IN COURTS French Judge Divorces Petitioner Lawyer Similar Error Made by Magistrate In England. . Some years ago, it is said, a legal blunder of a most extraordinary char acter was committed in one of the di vorce courts in Paris. By some mis apprehension on the part of the presid ing Judge, whose papers and mind had got confused, he actually mistook the name of an advocate who had been arguing a petition for the name of the petitioner himself, and in granting and signing the decree of dissolution of marriage of the petitioner unwittingly substituted the advocate's name for the petitioner's, and thus divorced the lawyer from his wife instead of grants Ing the prayed-for release of the advo cate's client. As the lawyer had no desire for separation from his wife, and as there was no process for an nulling an absolute decree for divorce, even to meet such a remarkable case, it became necessary, through the ju dicial error, for the man of law to re marry his spouse without delay, and this he did. . A somewhat similar error was com mitted in the English Court of Chan' eery. There had been a litigation over some property, which was held by one man and claimed by another of the same name. In evading some order of the court the holder of the property had committed a contempt, and on this being called to the at tention of the judge an order issued for the summoning, not of the guilty party, but of the claimant of the same surname, and the order, a very se vere one, was actually in execution before the error wa.s discovered The most popular Pianos ever of fered to the American music loving public Complete the home circle with a sweet-toped "CROWN" or "HOBART M.

INTERESTED 111 USE OF n HIES MANY ELECTORS TRY VOTING BY MODERN METHODS NOW IN OPERATION IN SEVER AL COUNTIES EASY TO LEARN HOW Rochester Men Exhibit Empire Vot ing Machine Which Has Been In Use In Ful ton. One of the interesting things of the election Friday was the exhibition at the court house of a voting mach ine. Messrs. T. N. Huffman and B. F. Fretz of Rochester had shipped to Plymouth one of the Empire Voting Machines, which is the same kind now in use in Fulton county. They took pains to show and explain the machine to everyone who would take time to look at it. The method of voting was simple, requiring the turning of a key and the pulling of a lever. A mixed ticket may be voted easily. Fulton county bought eleven mach ines two vears ago and reduced the number of precincts from twenty four to eleven. The cost of each election under the old plan of voting was $2000. The new plan by mach ines will save over $1000 each elec tion. ' Uder the purchase 'contract with Fulton county the payments are to be made as the saving of money on the election occurs. This is an easy way to buy the machines as the county has no risk to run. nor money to spend over the ordinary outlay. If Marshall eounty were to buy machines they could do so on the same basis. The cost is $750 for each machine and the total would be $11.250 for 15 machines. The present thirty-three precinct would be cut to fifteen or perhaps fourteen, and the machines distribut ed about as follows: German 2, Bourbon 2. Tippecanoe 1, Walnut 1, Green 1. Union lsWest 1, Polk 1, XorfJi 1, Center 3 in Plymouth. There is no proposition on now fo the purchase of voting machines but it may be taken up at anv time. This Will Interest Mothers.

Pflug will leave for his new charge at Vandalia, 111., on Satur day or possibly Friday afternoon. In his honor before he left the city the Presbyterian Brotherhood, of which he has been the head for five years, gave him a farewell banquet and pub lie program last night. - The banquet-was served by Mr Clifton at the Star restaurant and wa attended by about forty men and boys The meal was a fine one. and was fol lowed by a few toasts, under the dir ection of Dr. T.

Mr Leonard preented for the Brotherhoot a half dozen very "fine silver spoons which Mr. Pflug received "with some very grateful remarks. At the church the announced pro gram was carried out. The speeches were verv good and appropriate and threw many bouquets at the depart ing pastor and his good wife. The music by the quartet and the solos were a delight to all. The church was filled to the doors by ihe many who came to do honor the man who has been pastor of the church and an influence in the city for good during the past tight years he has lived here. How ni Ate the Hay. There are still some mighty eaters left. Not long ago a Berlin market porter undertook, 'or a wager, to put away at one sitting six mutton chops, 12 eggs, a goose, a duck, six pounds of potatoes and 22 pounds of hay. Difll cultles were anticipated with the last course, and large sums were laJd agains-t the accomplishment of thfr feat. The Ingenious porter solved th difficulty by calling for a cigarette after he had finished the duck.

REEVE PRESIDENT OF BOARD MAKES PROPOSI TION IN TALK BEFORE CIVIC CLUB. - BUILDING 10 BE GOOD Interesting Meeting of Civic Clnb in i Which Board Members Tell About Work Done and Plans Now On., That the Library Board should is sue bonds for 5,000 and add that sum to the donation of Andrew Car negit in order to make a $15,000 li brary building, was the proposition of Mr. C. A. Keeve, president of the board, in a talk before the Civic club Tuesday night. Mr. Reeve believes that a ' $10,000 building will not be good enough for Plymouth and that future generations would regret that so small a building had been built, if the board stops at what they can build for that sum. This action would not increase the li brary tax a particle. The entire evening of the club was taken up by a consideration of the library project, the following pro gram having been arranged by mem bers of the board: Music Mr. James II. Bishop. Benefits of a Public Library Mrs. Underwood. The Building Mr. Marks. Vocal Solo Mrs. Geo. II. Thayer. Mr. Carnegie and Our Financial Standing Mrs. llumrichouser. Vocal solo Rev. Mr. Ivins. The Law and Our Financial Diffi culties and Successes Mr. Reeve. Instrumental solo Mr. Bishop. Mrs. Underwood in a well prepared paper told of the many advantages of a free public library. It was the means of the general education and information of the public, she said, after they had gone out of school. A lbrary is a necessity for every in telligent community. It will make better working men, broader and more intelligent business and profes sional men, as well as being a source of pleasure and profit for all the women of the city and surrounding country, and a public convenience for travelers going through our city. Mr. Marks said that the board had not bought a lot yet, but had deeided on the Cleaveland lot, and were negotiating for it. They had chosen this lot because it was geographically located very nearly in the center of the city, was on a street ranch traveled and convenient for tne pupils of the High School, because it was a central location for the busi ness men and for the women as they were shopping, because of the fine shade trees already there, and the lot being already graded, and because it was just across from the city hall. When the city rebuild or enlarges the city hall, it is the expectation, he said, to heat both hall and library by one furnace, thus saving the cost of two heating plants an two janitors. The cost of this lot will be $4500. The heirs will make a donation of $500, and the house and barn is worth about $600 leaving the net cost of the lot to the board at $3500 for a ground 114X126 feet. On the first floor are to be the books and in the basment will be the furance, some of the reports not so frequently used, and the rest room. A lecture room and other smaller rooms for the public use will be providad. The present lease on the"' building will 'not expire until August, so nothing much can' be done before that time. The board expects, how ever, to have the walls of the library up before winter comes, on.1 . Mrs. Hnmrichouser took up - our financial condition ad said that Mr Carnegie has limited his donation to $0.000. she believed because the fin ancial showing of-the city was so good for the population. . Experience had shown that a library could not be supported on less than, 10 per cent of its cost. There has been subscrib ed to the library $2601 and of this $9.36.60 has been paid irt.'She thought all the list was cood. except about $50 from people who had moved awav.

This sum would help greatly in making the library better for both city and countrv. The Library Board can ancicipate its revenues it can issue bonds and pay for them out of the library tax paid in. For example, if the amount raised annually is $1700 and the amount-spent for the maintenance of the library is $1200, the board could apply the balance of $500 ach year on the paj-ment of bonds issued for the erection of a building. Somefhing like this is what Mr. Reeve has in mind for the erection of a $15000 library building. The tax will not be increased at all, but the bonds would be paid off gradually from year to year and nobody would feel it. The city would always be glad that the tetter building was built, bcause the library should 'De one of the very best in the city. If the township comes in as is ex pected, there will be that much more to help pay for the better build ing. At the close of this very interest ing program, delicious punch and wafers were served. The meeting was held at the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Reeve. Farewell Meeting. Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Boy er of north Plumb street entertained the Paw Paw Pleasure club Thursday night. It'was a farwell meeting, as Mr. and Mrs. Boyer are going to leave the citv for their future home in Idaho, Mr. Boyer will leave in a few days and Mrs. Boyer in a month or so. Light refreshments were served by the host and hostess, which was en joyed by all. ' The members of the club wished Mr. and Mrs. Boyer success and prosperity in their new home.
