RENSSELAER, INDIANA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 8,1911.

HORSE SHOW NEXT WEEK; A FINE TIME IN SIGHT

Fine Hones, lively Bands, Many Free Attractions, Many Paid Shows, Ball Games, Etc., Should Draw Mammoth Crowds.

SHOW IS WELL ADVERTISED Chuck Meek’s New Exposition Shows Will Arrive Tuesday and Be Ready To Open That Night. The third annual horse show takes place Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday of next week. Along with the horse show comes “Chuck” Meek’s New Exposition Shows, combining a number of free and paid attractions that promise a period of excellent amusement for all who come here during the show days. The free attractions will consist of— The Rensselaer Boys’ Band, Meek’s New Exposition Band, Vantella and Nina, aerialists, The Boxing Kangaroo, The Spiral Tower, and The Girl Who Sings to Beat the Band. All the horse show events are ab-

LIVELY CROWD COMPOSED HORSE SHOW BOOSTERS.

Twenty-Two Cars Went Forth to Proclaim the Good Things That ■— Will Happen Next Week. The boosters were a little delayed in getting a start this morping. A little rain and some overhanging clouds threatened to entirely spoil the boosting program and a few who had planned to go were entirely frightened out. Elizur Sage had promised his car to take part of the band boys, so it is said, and when he did-not put in an appearance he was sent for, but had decided not to go. It took'a half hour to find a place for all the band boys. The start was finally made, however, at about 8:45 and there were twentytwo cars in the party if no mistake in count was made. Those furnishing their cars were G. H. McLain, who acted as pilot and had Harry Parker, the boomer-booster, with him; A. F. Long, George W. Ketchum, S. E. Sparling, G. F. Meyers, C. W!. Hanley, Granville Moody, Ben Harris, W. F. Smith, A. S. Laßue, Dr. S. H. Moore, C. H. Tryon, Fred Phillips, G. A. Williams, John M. Knapp, M. L. Hemphill, Ed Randle, B. J. Moore, D. S. Makeever and Mike Kuboski. Dr. Hansson drove Dr. Moore’s new Overland roadster and it was the foxiest decorated car in the business. A horse’s head was mounted in front of the car and reins of ribbon extended from it, while the car was gaily bedecked with ribbons of varicolors. Dr. Hannson used a buggy whip on the fractious animal and seemed to have him under perfect control. Dr. Moore wore his silk tile and was easily the most distinguished member in appearance in the party, as well as the oldest He says that age should be no barrier to progress and that he believes in boosting, just as much as he did when a young man. The route to be taken was to Mt Ayr, Brook, Goodland and Wolcott A message from Remington at 3 o’clock said that the boosters had just left there, headed north.

In addition to these will be the picture shows with special effort to have fine bills, and* Our Stock Co. three nights at Ellis Theatre. That is a variety in program that should furnish much of interest to all. The booming autos today will do much to bring big crowds from the near-by towns and the country surrounding. Come to Rensselaer for four days of lively action and interest. Have your friends meet you here. The combined program certainly looks inviting. Come the first day and then keep coming all through the week.

Local Firm Not Outbid by Concern From Danville, III.

The public library board recently opened bids for the re-roofing of the public library and the contract was let to a Danville, HL, concern, whose bid was 3499 as against 3615 byCleve Eger. It looked like Cleve’s figures were too high, but after the Danville man got the job he wanted the board to bear the expense" of a lot of carpenter work and other things that would make the job cost as much or more than Cleve’s figures. The board then reconsidered and let Cleve have the job. The board wanted to let the work to a home contractor but the apparent difference in the figures seemed to justify letting the work out of town, but after it was found that the Danville man only wanted to include part of the work in his bid there was nothing to be saved and the work will be done at home'after all.

Dog Quarantine Not Raised; Won’t Be Till Cold Weather.

Dr. M. D. Gwin, the city health officer, has not raised the order to keep dogs muzzled and will not do so until colii weather. The city or- ? dinance provides that dogs be kept muzzled until Sept Ist, but the order issued by Dr. Gwin was independent of the ordinance, as was the order of Dr. Loy for the county independent of the state law. The quarantine has not been raised in either instance- and persons who permit their dogs to run at large,unmuzzled may expect then to be killed.

Cyrus Rice Has Entered Good String of Hones for the Show.

Cyrus Rice, of Benton county, was over Thursday, being accompanied by his wife and their little daughter, and arranged for the entry of fourteen horses in the show. He will have animals in about all classes and will doubtless make a good showing as he did last year. Mr. Rice is one of the best horsemen in Indiana and It is a pleasure to all to know that he will bring his fine exhibit here.

Settle Dr. W. W. Merrill Accounts.

All persons knowing themselves Indebted to Dr. W. W. Merrill are expected to settle their accounts as early as possible. The books are at the office of C. J. Dean, where settlement can be made. Please give the matter Immediate attention.

Mel Wishard, son of Mrs. Jennie Wishard, and one of the Rensselaer boys who is going ahead in Chicago, and whom some people thought impervious to the arts of cupid, withstood his bachelor condition very well until he heard that his old friend, Everett Halstead, had fallen a victim of the little god, and then he decided to also pitch his camp with the benedicts, and annuoncements are now out for his marriage on Thursday, September 14th. The young lady is Miss Mona Greasly, of Chicago, and the, wedding will take place at her parents’ home in Gross Park.

Wishard and wife, of Noblesville, who came here by auto last night and remained over night and went on to Chicago this morning. Glenn has decided to accept the Y. M. C. A. work offered him in India and this will not only be a family' reunion, but also a farewell affair in his honor, as he will sail about the middle of October.
