Mrs. J. P. Simons is in very poor health and for some time has been unable to find treatment that will bring relief to her suffering.

Mrs. Martha Rusk is reported to be sinking and it is probable that, she can not long survive. She is at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Willis Lutz.

You are always right when you buy “A. & K.” flour.—The Home Grocery. Order your Booth oysters from Geo. Fate, the Fat Dinner Man, for Thanksgiving now and avoid the rush. All kinds of fresh fruits and vegetables, also the best in bottled and canned goods at the Depot Grocery. Alex.

Maines & Hamilton. Henry Hordeman, the unfortunate young man who lost an arm in a corn shredder Thursday afternoon, is/getting along very nicely, and this morning was able to set up. . 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. The physician who attended George Colvert during his last sickness states that there were no tubercular symptoms in his disease. In the first place he was taken down with his heart and kidneys and a bronchial catarrh. Two or three days prior to death pneumonia set in and that was the immediate cause of his demise.

The Depot Grocery is selling fine Michigan potatoes at 15c a peck this week.

The Battle Ground football team arrived on the 10:05 train this morning and is this afternoon playing a game with the St. Joe team at the college grounds. The visitors are quite a rugged looking lot of players and as Battle Ground is a town that has always played good football it is probable that the St. Joe boys will have a hard tussel.

latcrt Jaauaxy 1, 18*7, m ■•coad-elasa mail matter, at the port-offlc* at BemmlMr, Indiana, under th* act of March 3, 1878.

George Worden and family, of Remington, came to Rensselaer in his 5passenger Richmond touring car Friday afternoon at about 4 o’clock and at about 5:30 o’clock he started to bring the car to a garage to have a tire repaired. His car was in front of the Worden home on Grace street and when George went to light the lamps some gasoline that had escaped from a leak near the carborator caught fire and in a second the entire machine was in flames. The Are department was called out and succeeded in subduing the mad flames, but not until the car had been almost entirely wrecked. The top was burned off, the bed entirely ruined and all but one tire wrecked. It is possible that the engine and transmission are not badly damaged and parts of the frame may also be saved. Fortunately for Mr. Worden the car was insured for |l,ooo. The car was purchased of Blanche Elmore, of Remington, last spring at a cost of $1,350, and was a splendid machine. The parts that were not consumed by the fire will probably be sent to the factory for such use as can be made of them. '

Blanche Elmore brought some passengers over from Remington soon after the fire and Mr. Worden’s family were able to return home with him. Chemical engines are being carried by many thoughful automobile owners now and It is said they will successfully cope with gasoline fires. Had Mr. Worden been provided with one of these he might have saved his car from destruction.

Greatest of All Stock Shows Fulfilling Its Mission.

With the entry list out, the hopes of the,directors, officers, and everyone else who is interested in the International Live Stock Exposition, sanguine as they were, have been more than realized, for the list contains such an array of names of the foremost and' most influential breeders, feeders, and farmers in the country, and such a number of entries from each, that the show this year will not only totally eclipse all Its predecessors, but will te recorded in this and other countries as the greatest live stock exposition that has ever been held anywhere since live stock shows were first organized This splendid condition of affairs is positive proof of how exhibitions of this kind are regarded by stockmen; what a necessity they find them to be, and what tremendous assets they are to the industry they represent and the stock they produce. For any breed of cattle, sheep, swine and horses' to be even mentioned as prize winners at this show, stamps their breeders as men who know their business, and marks them as breeders whose stock will realize higher prices than those of others, and not only is this the case in regard to the breeders of the actual winners, but it means a tremendous lot to all others, whose stock, though nob fortunate enough to be among the prize takers, is deemed worthy of competing against such animals, and only requires a little more perseverance until they themselves are counted among the winning owners. The International Live Stock Exposition <this year will be a revelation, not only to those who have attended and shown stock at it since its initial presenation eleven years ago, but also, and in much higher degree, to those who attend for the first time. Every stock* man who is really interested in the live stock industry, and' who is able to do so, should attend this show, even at the risk of being money out of pocket through the cost of the journey and expenses connected therewith, this small pecuniary loss, if loss it can be called, will be returned to him fourfold through the knowledge he will attain and will be returned to him in such a way as he will never be able to lose it, come what may; it is not only a giltedged investment, but carries giltedged security with it. To put it in the words of the preacher, “to refuse this offering is a casting away of the richest gift that could be offered to a stockman,” it is a refusal of the proffered hand of helpfulness; it is a turning away from the door, the man who has come to impart good tidings instead of to beg, and of wasting the hours that might be turned Into inestimable advantage. Do not forget the dates, November 26th to December 3rd, inclusive.

NOTICE. i . Owing to poor health I will not have any cut flowers down town for Thanksgiving, but will have fine carnations for all at my green house. Any one wanting other cut flowers besides carnations please telephone me no later than Monday, the 31st, so that 1 can order them for you. Everybody is requested to come and see my fine stock of potted plants, tbs''largest and finest ever in the city. KING FLORAL CO.

Extensive Land Owner Near Monon Dies Suddenly in Chicago.

Thomas Kelly, president of the National Live Stock Commission Co., of Chicago, died at an early hour Wednesday morning at his home in that city, of heart failure. Mr. Kelly owned about 1,700 acres of land near Monon, which he had purchased some three or four years ago and on which he had made extensive building and drainage improvements. His manager there was B. B. Curtis, to whom was communicated the news of Mr. Kelly’s death. The Monon News state's that an army of employes had been kept busy making improvements on the farm ever sihce Mr. Kelly purchased it, and that his death was a great loss to that community. He was only 52 years of age.

Roselawn Resident Fined by Mayor Meyers for Plain Drunk.

John Girard is the name of a Roselawn citizen who came to Rensselaer Friday and got drunk. Possibly he got drunk and then came to Rensselaer, but any way he was in Rensselaer and was drunk at one and the same time, and that is an offense that is not looked on lightly. He was arrested by Marshal Mustard and taken before Mayor Meyers and the city’s chief executive fined him $5 and costs, amounting in all to $10.60. The mayor sits on a first offense drunk just five times as hard as the squire. Girard was penitent after spending the night in jail and promised, if released, to send a check for his fine. The mayor took a chance on him.

John Resh Has Trouble With About Household Goods.

Last April John Resh shipped his household goods from Rensselaer to Gary, ordering special agent Triplett to send them over the Monon and Pennsylvania. He went every day to the Pennsylvania depot at Gary but the goods did not show up. Some four months later he found that the goods were in the Lake Shore depot and when he went after them the rai’road wanted tp, charge him storage for all that time. f He refused to pay it and the agent refused to release the goods and they are still in the depot at Gary. Mr. Resh has decided to leave his family in Rensselaer and it is probable that the railroad is breeding a lawsuit for the recovery of the goods and reasonable damages.
