One of the established successes in the theatrical world Is “Sis Perkins," the rural comedy drama which will be seen at the opera house Thursday, August 24th. While the comedy element predominates, and laughter compelling situations are the rule, there is a touch of sentiment, a vein of heart Interest and a story which takes the auditor from the peaceful life of the farm to the hustle and noise of the city streets. Uncle John Foresman suffered quite a loss by the Saturday morning storm. Six head of two year old steers were killed by lightning. They were standing under a small tree and when the bolt hit the tree it killed the six out of his herd of twenty-six. Uncle John says that five of them were the best he had and the other was the runt of the herd.—Brook Reporter*

HEAD END COLLISON OF AUTOS AT NOON TODAY.

Will Duvall and Simon Thompson Bun Touring Cars Together Near Washington Street Bridge. Firman Thompson’s Hudson auto and Ed DuyqlJ’s Buick were In a head end collision at about 12:15 o'clock today. The Thompson car was being driven by the owner’s brother, Simon Thompson, who bad crossed the Washington street bridge and was going east. The Duvall car was being driven by Will Duvall, the son, who had come up Front street and taken a wide turn at the Washington street crossing tp get on the right side of the road und avoid the possiblity of striking a car if one happened to be coming from the garage. In the automobile with Simon was little Dorothy Thompson, the 2-year-old daughter of his brother and wife. Thompson had intended to go to the postofflee, which caused him to turn to the left after crossing the bridge. The cars were thus headed directly toward each other. Thompson put on brakes and his car skidded for some little distance, probably 26 feet, but the car was not turned to the right and the cars went together near the curbing alongside of B. S. Fendig’s poultry shop. The little Thompson girl ‘was thrown from her seat and struck against the front of the car, receiving a slight bruise on the nose and upper lip, but was not seriously injured. Although the cars were not going fast they went together ..with great force and the Buick car was probably damaged to the extent of s7s’. One front Spring was broken and the other badly bent. The front axle was broken, one lamp was crushed, and the radiator bent and one front fender crumpled up. The Hufcon car was not so badly injured. One lamp was broken and the radiator slightly bent. One tire was also torn in a place or two. The damage to this car will probably pot exceed sls. The accident might have been avoided if drivers would learn to keep to the right side of the street at all times. 1

No New Trains for Monon, But Some Fine New Coaches.

The Monon is not to have two new trains as waß incorrectly published recently in a number of newspapers, but passenger trains Nos. 30 and 33 are to run on a slightly changed schedule and are to be made up of entirely new coaches, the best ever purchased by the Monon railroad, and one of the finest trains ever run on any road. The change is to take place Sunday, August 27th. The trains will be run only to and from Indianapolis and will pot connect with C. H. ft D. trains for )*nd from Cincinnati as heretofore. The reason for this is the fact that the northbound train has been unable to maintain a regular leaving time At Indianapolis, owing to the fact that the C. H. ft D. trains have been so often late. As the Monon carried the Cincinnati mail into Chicago it had to wait for the C. H. ft D. By the new arrangement mail clerks running on these trains will go only to Indianapolis and It is expected that several will have their salaries reduced by the curtailed run, Several Rensselaer mailclerks will be affected. Train No. 38, which now leaves Chicago at 12 o’clock and which arrives here at 1:58, will run on about the same schedule. The corresponding train, north hound, is No. 30, which now meets the evening milk train here at 5:58. By the new schedule it will leave Indianapolis about 8 o’clock and probably arrive In Rensselaer about 15 minutes earlier than it now does. Surrey will probably be its point for passing the milk train. The purpose of the change is to meet a demand in Indianapolis for a first class train that will be so scheduled as to leave in the middle of the afternoon regularly and reach Chicago at or a little before 8 o'clock. The officials are feeling very proud of the coaches that are to make up the newly equipped trains. The coaches have Just been turned oat of the Dayton, Ohio, shops, and are now in Indianapolis, where they have been inspected and pronounced very line by officials.
