Dick Hartman, who has been living at Monon for some time, and who has not been in Rensselaer much for the past five or six years, was herq a day or two ago looking for a house. He expects to move here if he cau find one. Frank X. Busha and wife have moved to Lafayette. He will work part of the time as an operator at the shops and part of the time in the dispatcher’s office. Frank is a fine fellow and we regret that he has been transferred from Rensselaer. His place at the depot here has not been supplied. Four freight trains were tied up in Rensselaer today all at the same time. The cold weather had made progress slow and the crews had been out the full sixteen hours allowed by law apd the trainß had to be held here until other crews could reach wo from Monon to relieve them. One crew came on the milk train and another on the 10:06, both of which were two and a half hours late. Fred Qrlffin came over from Monticello today to attend the ikraltry show. He expected to have several hours here but the train from the south was two and a half hours late. Fred sold his restaurant there recently to E. F. Baxter, who formerly lived south of Remington, and Mr. Baxter took charge on Jan. Ist Fred does not know in what business he will engage but probably he has somewhat of a hankering to get back into newspaper harness. Eat saner kraut and try and live one hundred years.
