William Darroch, of Kentland, is in Rensselaer today, looking the ground over at the opening day of court and looking up some matters in the Ryan ditch cause. It is probable that a bill will be introduced at the coming general assembly of Indiana to provide for the government of cities by commission, doing away with the mayors. W. Frank Osborne and Lem C. Huston will go to Indianapolis tomorrow morning to represent the Rensselaer Encampment, No. 201, I O. O. F. at the grand encampment. Miss Elizabeth Spaulding returned Saturday evening from Oconowoc, Wis., where she has been for several months. She resumed her work in charge of the Western Union office this morning.
There are advertised letters in the post office for Miss Fern Walter, Madeline Kennel, Anna Hopkins, Mrs. Mary Gray, Ed Karnes, Clarence Goff, Harry Long, J. W. Noland, J. S. Ruggles, J. Tyler. J. A. Lucas, who owns the old Eruce Moffit farm in Union township, was in Rensselaer Saturday. He has lost a couple of sheep and is trying to recover them through the Republican classified column. Sam Duvall, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Duvall, is recovering from a light case of pneumonia, which was sufficient to keep him out of the football game Saturday, but probably he will be out in a few days. The Home Grocery has another car of fine Michigan potatoes on track again this week. They were shipped in a fruit car free from frost danger. This will probably be the last chance for so low priced potatoes. Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Carson, who have been boarding at the W. R. Brown home since their marriage, last week began housekeeping. They occupy the house on Forest street vacated by W. A. Davenport, who moved to the house he purchased of Miss Blanche Hoyes.

He is 40 years of age and 'his. wife 38 anTWs first child. Moses Chupp and wife returned home Saturday from Goshen, where they spent two weeks visiting. Mr. Chupp did not get a vote this year, as he moved to North Dakota last spring and had not been back long enodgh to re-establish a residence, so he went visiting.
The Crown Point Star says that the feature introduced in modern elections of going after people to get them to vote is having a bad effect, and that before long no one will turn out to vote unldbs some candidate has him hauled to the polls where he will be presented with a souvenir. It might be proper for the next legislature of to forbid political parties or candidates from conveying voters to and from the polls. Itls an absolute impossibility to buy a range that will equal a “Malleable.’’

ALLEGED SPECIFICATION CHANGES BASIS OF SUIT.
Mrs. E. Gangloff Asks Damages of Superintendent Myrt B. Price, His Bondsmen and Others. Dunlap & Parkinson have brought an action in the circuit court for Mrs. Elizabeth Gangloff against Myrt B. Price, the National Surety Co., Car H. Sternberg and Sons, Edward and Herman, Granville Moody, Delos Thompson and John Eger. The complaint sets out that Mr. Price was superintendent of the construction of the Iroqouis ditch through the Gangloh farm, east of Rensselaer, and that the specifications and plans for the construction of the ditch were not followed and that instead of passing through certain low places in t direct line through the farm the ditch zigzagged across the farm and went through high land that did not need any drainage and that in crossing the farm seven tile ditches were passed through. Damages in the sum of $5,000 are demanded.
Miss Madge Beam is visiting relatives in Reynolds. Our Motto—“ Prompt service and the best possible goods.”—Maines & Hamilton. Buy a “Malleable Range” this week at Rhoades’ and obtain a set of cooking utensils free. Mrs. Mary Kannal and daughters, Mrs. Cleve Eger and Miss Irma Kannal are spending today in Chicago. Congressman Crumpacker’s official majority in Lake county was 910, and in the district from late figures 2,013. Box social and play, “Parted by Patience,” by young people. Program by school children, Thanksgiving night at Virgie school. Fae F. Bradford. If you use a “Malleable Range” you are perfectly satisfied. No other range can supplant the Malleable if once used in your home.
There should be some reform about a man losing his vote by removal from one precinct to another. It is not right, neither Js it the intention of the law to deprive any citizen of his right to vote. Several citizens of Rensselaer lived in houses from five to twenty days in order to retain their votes, thereby causing themselves and otehrs great inconvenience. An affidavit could be filed respecting the removal that would permit the citizen to exercise his right of suffrage and at the same time prevent fraud. This should be done without delay.
W. P. Cooper, who was re-elected treasurer of White county last week, was in Rensselaer over night, having stopped to get some auto repairs. His democratic opponent in White county was Sam Calloway, and Mr. Cooper’s majority was 196. Calloway had already served eight years as county clerk and there were some people who thought that was about enough for one man. To offset that Mr. Cooper is a very fine man and has made a good officer. Another county official to visit Rensselaer today was William Boyle, recorder of Newton county, who came over on business.
J. M. Wood, who moved to a farm near Hansboro, N. Dak., last spring, has arrived home and is unloading his household goods at Fair Oaks. He paid $143.40 for a car to bring his four horses, cow and household goods back in and states that the agent there only credited him with sll4 and that they are trying to hold him up for the balance of the money. He was here today to consult a lawyer as the Fair Oaks agent has refused to let him finish unloading his goods? He says conditions at Hansboro are very bad and that Otto Anderson is getting ready to start back to Jasper county.
County Clerk-elect Judson H. Perkins will continue to work at the windmill, pump, gasoline engine and wagon scales business just the same as though he had not been elected clerk. He will not take the office until the term of Mr. Warner expires, which will be May 1, 1912, and in the meantime he expects to get about all the windmills and pumps in Jasper county in repair so that his services won’t be required while he is in office. Some people thought that as soon as he was elected he would quit work, but not so with Judson; he has placed an advertisement in the Republican and will be anxious to keep busy for the next 18 months* See the Malleable Range this' week at our store. _

AUSTIN HIGH TIED THE SCORE AS GAME CLOSED.
By Spectacular Play Wales Intercepted Forward Pass and Made Touchdown With 11 to 11 Result.
Rensselaer played better- football than Austin in all but one particular last Saturday, and that particular was in the head work of the game. They should have won easily but they didn’t and the reason was several very poor displays of judgment due to the ercitement of the game. The final score was 11 to 11, and the rooters agreed that it was one of the best games of recent years. All the youngsters were in good physical trim, they were game fighters and there is a lot of individual talent in the team. The interference for runners was as good as has ever been seen in the high school and notwithstanding the fact that the visiters were able to tie the score we should have won by a substantial balance. Within 6 minutes after the gqme started the red and black had pushed the ball to within 10 yards of the goal and at the rate they were going could have made a touchdown by straight football but a forward pass was undertaken and Robinson received the ball but caught it across the goal line and it did not count, and Austin brought It out to the 25 yard line an& punted it safely away. In this manner 6 points were lost. Rensselaer was playing Austin off its feet and Parks, Porter and Smith were making some good end runs and when forced to punt Hemphill was sending the ball into the enemy’s territory in a fashion that brought back the days of Frank Sayler. It was not until the second quarhowever, that Rensselaer was able to carry the ball across the line and then it was on a third down and the ball scarcely touched the streak of lime between the posts. Porter was the hero and he made the last 6 yards by a desperate crash through the left tackle. Parks kicked goal, and with this 6 point lead Rensselaer seemed sure to win. A little later and Rensselaer had some* good luck. Hemphill undertook to make an onside kick and the ball rolled across the goal line and Smith got it and was credited with a touchdown. The ball was well to the side line and Parks missed a goal and the score was Rensselaer 11; Austin 0.
In the third quarter Austin made a well earned touchdown. It was accomplished by a succession of small gains by forward passes, Snyder making 25 yeards, Scott making 5 and Gormley two gains of 5 yards each. After getting within 7 yards of the goal Rensselaer held for two downs when Cogdall, the fleet and clever little quarter back of the visitors, made 3 yards through right tackle. Gormley was unable to kick goal. The last quarter witnessed a considerable brace on the part of Austin and Rens selaer was forced to punt several times and Hemphill sent the ball well down the field. At about the 55 yard line with the ball in the possession of Austin, McCarthy got it on a fumble and in his excitement started to run toward his own goal, and thus carried the ball about 30 yards in the' wrong direction before he was downed by Porter. A little later Col vert signaled for a forward pass and Parks was to receive the ball but he did not understand the signal and the ball was caught by Wales, who sprinted 40 yards and made a touchdown from, which Gormley kicked goal, closing the game. Wales run was made with in 15 seconds of the end of the game and had Hemphill been called upon to kick the ball he would have saved the game. It was the best game of the season and put the old enthusiasm into the spectators, but the crowd was small and the association went about S3O behind on the game. It will take a good Thanksgiving game to pull them out of the hole.
The line up: Rensselaer Position Austin Robinson re Snyder Hemphill rt Wood Miller rg Carothers Beam c Cutler Moore ig Thomas McCarthy it Carrell Ell is Scott, Stevens Colvert qb Cogdall Parks rfi Gormley Porter fb Wales, Scott Smith ih Shaw, Wales Touchdowns—-Porter, Smith, Cogdall, Wales. Goals—Parks, Gormley.
Explosion of Acetyline Plant Wrecks Home Near Camden.
Thursday evening the acetyline gas plant in the home of James T. Stone, northeast of Camden, exploded and blew out the entire rear end of the house, injuring both Mr. and Mrs. Stone. The lights were dot working right and Mr. Stone had turned them out just before the explosion or the damage would have been much worse. It seems that there was too much water dropping on the carbon and the gas already formed just exploded. There was no fire in connection. The house is a fine thirteen room mansion and the rear portion is completely demolished. Outbuildings in close proximity were also damaged, but the front of the house is all right. All kinds of feed for stoick for sale by Maines & Hamilton.
ANOTHER ATTACK STARTED AGAINST THE MARBLE DITCH.
Inequality of Assessments Chief Basis For Effort to Defeat Great Kankakee Drainage Scheme.
John Brown, of Crown Point, extensive land owner in Lake county, was accompanied to Rensselaer this Monday morning by .his attorney, Otto Bruce, ahd there are> a number of other land owners from north of the river on hand to begin objections to the construction of the great Marble ditch, which will come up at this term of cour,t. The chief objection will probably be alleged inequality of assessments. The report of the engineers was surrounded by a number of the remonstrators this morning and it is probable that several of the largest land owners north of the river will make a hard fight to have their assessments reduced or possibly they will seek to find some basis on which to further oppose the construction of the ditch. It is not probable, however, that the ditch can be defeated at his stage unless something much more important is offered against it than has so far shown up.
Fun on Sunday, But Oh! That Awful Feeling Monday Morning.
It is a long time since a woman has been fined in Rensselaer for drunkenness, but that is what happened to Mrs. James Anderson, of Hammond, in Rensselaer, and William Grayson also caught a fine for the same thing. Mrs. Anderson came down from Hammond on the 1:58 train and was met by Grayson. Together they went east on the Monon track and spent part of the afternoon up near the maple grove. They were under the influence of liquor when they came down the railroad track and Officers Mustard and Critser were waiting for them near the stockyards. Grayson did not want to come to jail but was persuao ed to by the officers. Mrs. Anderson swore and put up a terrible fuss. This morning there was a bad taste in their mouths and Squire Irwin fined each $1 and costs, amounting to $7.05 each. Grayson paid his and was released. Mrs. Anderson is still in jail. She formerly lived in Rensselaer.
The grocery at the depot which opened under new management last week reports a fine start. It is being conducted on a strictly cash basis and is a very nice and complete store.

Monticello Fire Chief Does Not Want Meddling During a Fire.
The new Monticello fire company had its first call Saturday morning when fire was discovered in a clothes ’closet in an upstairs room of E. J. Rogers’ home. The company quickly responded and was able to conquer the fire by means of chemical hand engines. The hose had been strung, however, and extended into an lidstairs room, and some outsider turned on the water and the house was flooded needlessly before the hose was thrown out of the window. The Monticello fire company is going to adopt a “mouths shut” and “hands off” policy for outsiders and Fire Chief Tony Anhier wants no meddling from persons not members of the company.
