TRIAL CALENDAR FOR APRIL TERM OF COURT.

Charles W. Platt Broke Ankle When Porch Scaffold Fell.

Charles W. Platt, the cement contractor, had the misfortune to break a bone in his right ankle Wednesday afternoon at about 3 o’clock. He was at work on a porch on the house occupied by Mel Abbott and family, on Vanßensselaer street and was standing on a scaffold. George Hopkins ♦as also on the scaffold, which gave way and both were thrown to the ground. Mr. Hopkins escaped injury but Mr. Platt suffered a fracture of his right ankle. He was taken to his home and will be laid up for some time. It is hard to keep an industrious man down, however, and Charley will probably be out on crutches in K days. Sam Perkins has quit his farm job near Idaville and came home last evening. He is a tiptop farm hand and will probably take a job near Rensselaer.

Beautiful lustrous cotton voiles, French poplins, cotton foulard, Tokio and Seco silk, justLthe weaves for afternoon and evening dresses. ROWLES & PARKER.

Ladies are invited to call. Mrs. Jennie Wishard went to Rossville today to assist in caring for her brother, William Porter, who is in his 82nd year and in very poor health. She expects to go from there to Nobles Ville to visit her son, Dr. Ernest Wishard. The first ball game indulged in between the Chicago Cubs and St. Louis Cardinals at the Cub park Wednesday resulted in a tie, 3 to 3. Ruelbach started to pitch and delivered ten straight balls. Chance then substituted Weaver. St Louis scored 3 runs in the first innings and the Cubs plodded along until they tied it In the 9th. Two more inhings were runless and the game will be played off later in the season. 'There was some spectacular fielding during the game. Tinker, Zimmerman and Evers starring. Mayor Harrison tossed the first ball to the ground. George Ade witnessed the game. t Stokes Jackson, chairman of the Indiana democratic organization, who was made the sergeant-at-arms in the house of representatives, is said to be planning to place his son and his son-in-law in the two fattest jobs under him. By the conditions of his election these jobs were to go to other states and Indiana democrats are much put out at Jackson’s nerve in trying to make his office a “family affair” and Tom Taggart and other democrats who play politics twelve months out of the year, are said to have called Stokes “on the carpet” when he arrived in Indianapolis Wednesday from Hillsdale, Mich., where he was married a few days ago.

Jinks Brenner Writes of His New Location at Winchester.

Editor Republican and the bunch around there: Hello people, how are you, nnd how is everybody? I.have been thinking every since we came down to Winchester that I would write you and have you send us,the Semi-Weekly, but have been so awful busy couldn’t get to it. We sure are having all the business that we can attend to, and more than we could take care of and straighten things up at the same time. Are getting pretty well fixed again; have a dandy hotel, and Winchester is an awful good country town. The greatest Saturday town I ever saw. We think we wiH like it here when we get everything adjusted, but can’t forget our many friends in old Rensselaer, and will look for the truth teller every day till it comes. Grace and Lila came down here with us and they are wishing for the Republican every night. With regards to all I am as ever. A. J. BRENNER.
