Commercial Club in Rooms Over Roth Bros. Butcher Shop.

The Rensselaer Commercial Club held a good meeting Wednesday evening in the rooms over Roth Bros.’ butcher shop, which 'are being furnished for permanent quarters for the club. There was a fait turnout and all seemed greatly interested in the of the club and the future welfare of Rensselaer. A proposition that can not be discussed at this time was discussed and may result in the location of a thriving little factory here. The by-laws were changed in two particulars, one being that the directors of the club must be lot owners. The other provided for the possible contingency that the club might possibly go out of business some time, and should this ever result it will be impossible for a few people to lay title to the undivided and unsold property held by the club. The new section that in the event of the club ever becoming inactive and its dissolution become necessary, the property will go share and share alike to the lot purchasers. Another meeting will be held the second Wednesday night of June. Jacob Maloney, a farmer of /Oliver, 111, who is dying of consumption, has put a force of men to work building a concrete vault for his burial place, declaring that before he dies he wants to inspect the work. He insists that he be taken to the cemetery, three miles away, to pass on the job.
