Mr. and Mrs. S. S. Shedd Start on Long Eastern Trip.
Mr. and Mrs. S. S. Shedd started this Tuesday morning for a visit with their son, Harry Shfdd, and wife and 8-months-old boy baby, in New York City. This is the only grandson that Mr. and Mrs. Shedd have. They will also visit Bellows Falls, New Hampshire, where they were married about 37 years ago. They will be absent about a. month. H. W. Jackson, a neighbor of William A. Crisler, had his dog killed yesterday. It was thought possible that it had associated with the dog that bit Mr. Crisler and Mr. Jackson did no want to take any chances. Two /dogs without muzzles were killed by officers Monday night, and today a number have-called to have the officers kill their dogs. This is really the best way to do, no matter how much you may be attached to your dog. This hydrdphobia may hang about for the next two or three years and when It is all over you can another dog that you will soon learn to think just as much of. .Why wouldn’t a couple of airships be a great attraction for Rensselaer some time this summer? They could doubtless be procured at a reasonable cost and they would bring the greatest crowd to Rensselaer that ever assembled here. If we do not celebrate the 4th, and no one has said anything about celebrating, an aviation meet would be a great thing for August or —'Hy in September. Our horse shows have been a little late in the fall for the success of the meetings, not that the shows themselves could have been any better if held earlier, but a little late for the success of the street privilege meh and the merchants who pay the freight. Possibly the biplane flight could be made a feature of the horse show. Nothing would be a better crowd bringer. Ralph S. Gano, who was here last year with Fred Gordon, of the Jordan Dramatic Company, is here again today, being accompanied by Christ. Nielsen, and they have arranged to do some scenery painting for Manager Ellis’ theatre. They will paint an altogether new front drop curtain, to replace the present asbestos curtain and hereafter the ad curtain will 'be the second curtain. It, filso, will be new, a very pretty modern street-scene being used as a center piece. The front curtain will be a landscape scene. Mr. Gano states that he will probably be with Mr. Gordon again next year but if he is not, he expects to organize another company and play practically the same circuit, at least including Rensselaer in it It is expected another year to play more royalty pieces and to in other ways Improve the company over last year. Accidents will happen, but the bestregulated families keep Dr. Thomas’ Eclectic Oil for such emergencies. It subdues the pain and heals the hurts.
