Copyright, The Frank A. Munsey Co. ———o — r “Very carefully," returned Captain Chesley, “we mustn't move too fast on such a slight identification. Find his house address, and something about his habits. But be sure there isn’t any mistake made; and see what you can find out about Field and his trip to Malden. He isn’t with us, and he is worth considering just now." McGill left the room, and Chesley, after a few words with General Martial, went to his office ta attend tc routine matters. * * * * *
Two. weeks had passed, and the police were no nearer a solution of the Cossett robbery than they were on the morning after the crime. Mr. Simon Cossett had made no move to discover how Miss Nellie Cossett's picture had found its way to his front steps. The strange relations between himself and the two cousins who thought he had defrauded them prevented his making inquiries in Malden, and Field could be of any further service to him in this matter. His description of Linden did not prove anything. As for the police inquiries concerning this recently discovered relative of the Malden Cossetts, it was obvious that one of Chesley's men had gone over the Malden ground, and anxious to find a victim, had tried to implicate y A -, Linden because be wore a gray suit and looked something like the man seen in front of Cossett’s house.
The department had guardedly suggested that he ought to help them find the gray man, and, while they did not mention Linden's name in this connection, there was no doubt that they would like, to goad the financier into some action that would give them an excuse for inquiring into the recent movements of his young kinsman. The wonder was that they had not detained Linden and confronted him with the financier. The latter was acute enough to see that if he were seen with Linden the police would at once come to him with a host of new questions. But angry as .Mr. Simon Cossett was, because of the high-handed outrage he had been subjected to, he was not yet prepared to move against Nellie's supposed sweetheart, for Nellie had always been his best-loved relative and, School shoes of all kinds for girls and boys, at Rowles & Parker’s.

There have certainly been a lot of people In Rensselaer the past week and many have been compelled to scratch around a long time before they foupd a place to stay. Night after night the Makeever House has been filled and from ten to twenty that wished to remain all night have been turned away. Barnes' restaurant has been almost overrun with guests and all the sleeping apartments he has, have been used every night. Besides the match factory, the new depot, the elevator, the Methodist church and the new residences, gangs are stopping here that are installing the Monon’s automatic block system, and a good sized gang is working here setting the Postal Telegraph Co’s, poles over to conform to the widened right-of-way at the new depot Automobile parties from long distances stop here at night and for their meals, and Rensselaer has not been so busy for many years. If indeed, it ever had a better period than the present one. The wage scale is higher than ever before, too. Common labor is getting $2 to $2.50 per day, carpenters $3.00, brick masons 70 cents an hour. Lumber merchants report a fine trade, hardly being able to get lumber in fast enough to 3'ippiy the demand. Rensselaer is certainly enjoying a fine industrial boom. The most complete line of boys', men's and, children's fall hats and caps in the city, from 50c to $3.00. Call in and let me show you. Model Clothing Co., Simon Leopold, Mgr.

O. P. Wiley, of Delphi, who had the misfortune a few months ago to lose his wife, is visiting his daughter and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. ,M. M. Crowder, east of Rensselaer. Mr. Wiley had a queer experience that at* most cost him his life and he thinks that a word of warning might not be amiss to the public. Almost two years ago while eating a piece of cake that had been made from flour that was sifted in an ordinary wire sifter he got a small piece of wire in his throat and it remained lodged there for a year and a half until removed by a Burgeon. He thinks that persons with sifters that have become worn a little should discard them. The morning before Mr. Wiley cafne to Rensselaer he broke an egg to cook for himself, and much to his surprise, something hard fell from the broken egg. He picked it up and it was a very small, but perfectly formed, hardshelled egg, that had reposed inside the ordinary-sized shell. He brought the egg to this office and will take it to the office of the Delphi Journal after his return home. Mr. Wiley made his first trip to Rensselaer in 1852, when quite a small boy, but he recalls that there was not much of a town here at that time, and that the court house .was a two-story frame building. A campaign waa in progress and a rally was being held in Rensselaer and the speaker addressed the voters in the court house. He says that he is really surprised now to see such a beautiful and hustling city and such splendid farms about it

V Arthur Williamson has rented the Albert Warner farm for five years and will occupy the same the coming year. He already has begun fall plowing on the place. Mrs. Wash Cook and daughter, Mrs. R. C. McDonald, returned borne Monday, after a. visit of a few days with the former’s brother, Frank Peregrine, near Valparaiso. The entertainment at McCoysburg Thursday night, given by the Danley children, of Lafayette, and some home talent, was quite well attended. The

entire program was gotten up quite hurriedly, as the occasion was only thought of the Sunday before, and considering the short time for drill, the children did quite well. The caterpillars are unusually thic/ this season, from some cause. They seem to be In everybody's orchards, as well as in wild trees. Especially do the wild cherry trees come In for a big share of them. People should take time to destroy these pests, or they may do great injury to the fruit trees. A little coal oil dashed on each web and touched with a match or torch is generally a sufficient remedy. Ml and Mrs. Roy Bussell and children and Wilson and Elvin Bussell returned home Tuesday evening, after a week's visit with Mr. and Mrs. James Lefler, at Packard, Wls. Wisconsin is a beautiful country, has many fine farms with improvements that far exceed those of our own state in many places. The fine big timber is fast being taken up by the sawmill firms and it will only be a matter of a few years until the large mills will be out of work. The manner in which the logs are sent down the big Menominee river and sorted out to the different mill owners is a sight worth any one's time. The second largest electric power plant in the United States is situated a few miles north of Marinette and Menominee, along the rapids of the Menominee river, and furnishes power and light for both of the cities.
