When Harrison Wasson bought the Rensselaer Bus Line of Frank Kresler and moved to town the population of Rensselaer took a good boost, for he is the father of ten children, and all of them living at home with the parents, making an even dozen in the family. A fine rain occurred this afternoon, much to the delight of most people but greatly to the discomfiture of the high school baseball boys who had a game scheduled with Brook. The neighboring boys were here, but it is probable that the rain will prevent the game. - L. T.

Perry Horton and Miss Margaret Lander were guests Friday afternoon of Dr. Schmadel and mother at Lafayette, being- invited there as a part of Dr. Schmadel’s theatre party to witness the production of the musical comedy entitled “The Girl With the Gorgeous Gowns” given by the Lafayette lodge of Elks. They were splendidly entertained and report the play simply grand. While there are several vacant houses in Rensselaer now, owing somewhat to the western trend and to the fact that the stone road, river blasting and dredge work is at an end, all of which furnished employment to a number of men, it is not probable that the pensus as being taken by J. F. Hardman and Fred Tyler will show any big falling off and probably a small gain over the census taken in 1900, when Rensselaer was credited with having 2,255 people living within it’s boundary lines. Between 1890 and 1900 there was an increase of about 800. It is not'probable that the 1910 census will show Rensselaer to be any larger than 2,500.
