FACTORY OUTLOOK GOOD; MEETING WAS ENCOURAGING.

Commercial Club Directors May Close Deal to Locate Factory Here That Wm Boom City. The meeting Tuesday night to consider a factory proposition brought out a goodly number of citizens. They listened attentively to the discussion and to the proposition made by the gentleman who are behind the factory. The factory offered met general favor and the proposition made by the promotors seemed reasonable if they are able to make good on their part of the deal. The factory is for the manufacture of matches and match making machine! y. The men gave a veny comprehensive insight into the business and st emed to satisfy all that there is money In the business and that they can make a concern here that will largely boom Rensselaer. It is proposed to erect a factory building that will cost $25,000 and install machinery worth $40,000. It will require 20 hands to each of four match making machines, and the proposition is to employ from 100 *to 125 hands from the atart. The directors held a meeting following the adjournment of the public meeting and it was decided to enter into a contract with the visitors if they were found to be reliable and references are to be investigated at once. If the factory locates here it will probably mean the building of fro a thirty to fifty houses during the summer.

Hugh Gamble Lost Brother In San Francisco Earthquake.

Hugh Gamble went to Chicago last Sunday to see a brother who resides there, but missed connections, as his brother was out of the city. Hugh was entertained at his home, however, and after his return home received a memorial order of the Loyal Legion of the United States, published in honor of his oldest brother, Captain George Henry Gamble, who served during the civil war and afterward as a captain in the 9th U. S. Cavalry. Captain Gamble lived at the Brunswick hotel In San Francisco, Cal., a building which was badly shattered by the earthquakes of April 18, 1906, and which was immediately destroyed by fire. He has never heen seen from that day and it is. presumed that he was killed in the collapse of the building arfd his body burned in the fire. He belonged to the military order of the Loyal Legion and his comrades caused an order to be issued on Jan. 1, 1907, setting forth the circumstances surrounding his death and also containing a biographical sketch of his life. The order closes with the following tribute: ‘Captain Gamble served gallantly for four years during the Civil War and for three years in the regular army, an* tie was always highly respected in our city. We mourn his untimely death and add his name to the roll of departed soldiers ol the Union and companions of this commandery.”

FAMOUS CATHOLIC PRELATE HONORED BY NATION LEADERS.

Cardinal Gibbous Eulogized in Speech By President Taft, Who Reviews His Great Work. James Cardinal Gibbons missed his afternoon walk today. For the first time in years, one of the very few in the that he has been the only prince of the Catholic churqh In the United States, he missed his afternoon stroll over the streets of Baltimore, where he listened to banker' and beggar and took to heart the troubles of “his people.” Instead of the walk, which has become a feature of that part of the city, in which he lives, the cardinal sat in the First Regiment Armory a monster nonsectarian celebration in honor of the twenty-fifth anniversary of his rise to the rank which he now holds and listended to the great men of the nation speak in eulogy of his life. President Taft, Vice President Sherman, Chief Justice White, former President Roosevelt, Ambassador Bryce of Great Britain, Speaker Clark, Senator Root of New York, Governor Crothers of Maryland, former Speaker Cannon and Mayor Presly of Baltimore sat with the cardinal, and all except the chief justice spoke In praise of him. Among the 600 guests seated on the platform behind the President, the cardinal and the other speakers, were more than a score of senators and members of the House of Representatives. Probably a more distinguished gathering never was held In this country outside of Wash ngten, and the wheels of the government came pretty near to a stop while those who sit in charge over them paid honor to the cardinal. The armory holds 15,000, Its builders say, and was crowded to the doors. The cardinal sat in a plush chair in the center of the stage. To his right was President Taft, and then came former President Roosevelt, Chief Justice White and on the cardinal’s left were Governor Crothers of Maryland,. Ambassador Bryce, Speaker Clark, and Representative Cannon. The ovation which greeted the cardinal as he climbed the stai/s with President Taft was remarkable. The cardinal wore the red robe, the skull cap of red and the deep green ring of office. Through all of the speeches he sat smilling, every changing expression of his face and his bright eyes attesting to the pleasure that this tribute afforded him. He smiled like a boy when President Taft Introduced him to Mr. Roosevelt; he laughed with glee when the chief justice shook his hand, and the ghost of a smile flickered over his face when Speaker Clark, mixing for a moment politics with religion, said that he had been a potent force for good “among both Catholics and Republicans.”

Dr. Wynn Talked to Physicians About the Success of 606.

Tuesday evening the members of the Jasper County Medical Society were addressed by Dr.. Frank B. Wynn, of Indianapolis, one of the most noted tuberculosis specialists in tbe United States and one of the sixteen physicians in this country selected to administer the 606 treatment for a disease commonly called blood poisoning to charity patients according to the plan of the Carnegie foundation. Dr. Wynn told of the success of his experiments with this remedy, making that the basis for Kis talk to the doctors who had assembled, in the court library in the court house. He stated that only one case in fifteen required a second treatment and that the disease for which the remedy was promulgated yielded readily to the treatment. The powerful qualities of the drug employed required that it be administered by a skilled physician with the greatest precaution. Dr. Wynn’s address proved very interesting. Following the meeting the doctors enjoyed a lunch at Nowels’ restaurant We have just finished unloading our Bth carload of- flour since Jan. 1, 1911.
