The storm seemed to have been worse in the vicinity of the latter, place. There was little damage done in the vicinity of Monticello. The party started for Bass Lake to look out for a fishing camp, but on account of the heavy rain, the trip was not completed.—Fowler Re-publican-Leader. The papers are filled these days with the recital of crimes. It seems that there is an unusual amount of murder, burglary, forgery, embezzlement, etc. Rensselaer has been par ticularly free from crimes of this kind and it is hoped will continue so. There are many strangers dropping Into town these days, however, and most of them are looking for an easy living. Don’t give them a foothold. Rensselaer has contributed to the support of a number of “easy nioney” artists in times past and the lesson should put all on their guard. Strangers often precede circuses, getting information for use when the circus comes to town. Look out for these. ▲ “Classified Adv.’* will find it.
