TONIGHT’S PROGRAM . —♦— PICTURES. IT SERVED HER RIGHT THE INHERITANCE. THE WITCH OF THE EVERGLADES. A GOOD TURN.

Reduction In all trimmed hats until July 15th at Mrs. Purcupile's. The selection is large and good. Hon. Jas. R, Guild visited his daughter, Miss Ava, at St. Louis, Mo., Saturday and Sunday. That young lady Is expected to return home-next Monday.—Medaryville Advertiser. John Copsey came up from Sheridar yesterday, joining his wife and baby, who were visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Monroe Carr. All returned to Sheridan today. John has built up a fine bakery business there. This is about the dullest Saturday Rensselaer has experienced for a long time. Farmers are busy harvesting oats and threshing wheat and will probably get to town later in the evening. ■ 1 1 ■" " y ■ ■ Peter Minnicus, accompanied by his granddaughter, Miss Blanche Minnicus, came down from Chicago Heights this morning for a visit with Rensselaer relatives. “Grandfather” Minnicus was 87 years of age on April 15th and is in splendid health. 1 ■" -- " Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Brunsdon arrived here yesterday from their wedding trip in the east, where they spent a delightful honeymoon. After a short visit with her,, father, W. R. Shesler, they will go to Hast Chicago, where they will make their home. Miaft Surah Smith, the elderly lady living near the Smith grave yard in Barkley township; who was operated on for an acute obstruction of the -bowels one dSy'last Week, Is getting alon'g very nicely. The wound Is healing and everything is favorable for her complete recovery. A conductor and a brakemah on a Montana railway differ as to the propejpronounciation of the name Eurella. Passengers are often startled at this station to hear the conductor yell, “You’re a liar! You’re a liar!” And then from the brakeman at the oth 'C end., of the car, “You really are! You really are.”—Next. , V , Z. F. Little, who is spending the summer at a sanatarium at Winnetka, 111., came to Goodland Sunday afternoon, returning Wednesday morning. Mr. Little told the writer that the treatment at ttfe above place was very beneficial to him. Harry accompanied him back to Minnetka, returning to Goodland Friday.—Goodland Herald. A party of autoniobilists from Rensselaer came along here Sunday and picked up Mr. B. Forsythe for a ride to Bass Lake with them. They were Swaney Makeever and wife and E. P. Honan (oil inspector) and wife. At the lake the Rensselaer machine ran into another car, tore off its fender and then went into the ditch. Quite exciting, though no one was hurt.— Winamac Democrat. B. W. Douglass, state entomologist, when- successor has been named in the person of C. H. Baldwin, of Goshen, will continue to hpld the office until Nov. Ist This will give Mr. Douglass a nice little holdover, and as Mr. Baldywin will be put to work right away as a field agent under direction of Governor Marshall, both will draw pay. The public pays the freight and the much-heralded economy plans of the governor get another jolt. Mrs. Ira Sigler and son, of Tulsa, Okla., who have been visiting relatives in Crown Point, arrived in Rensselaer this morning and went to the home of Anson Cox. They will visit her many Rensselaer friends and will not return to Oklahoma until about the first of September. Mr. Sigler, who was compelled to give up his position as court, reporter here because of failing health, is now restored to perfect health. He is working for the Tulsa commercial chib and finds the work easier and better suited to him. He thinks some of taking up shorthand work again this fall.
