The body of Albert Warner, which was shipped from Champaign, 111., to Lee, Ind., for burial in the Osborne cemetery, did not arrive at Lee until about 12 o’clock Thursday night, on the belated milk train. The funeral was held this morning at 9 o’clock. ■ ... - . . • . • ■■■ ■■’_ V. . John R. Phillips was in from McCoysburg this morning. There was not a thing new at that place that he knew anything about but in order to keep up with affairs at other places he paid a couple of years’ subscription to The Republican. The bill for Ellis Theatre Saturday, Feb. 24th, is “The Senator’s Daughter,” a bright, entertaining comedydrama, full of good hearty laughs, droll situations and entertaining sayings; just the kind of show that The Stock Co. appear to the best advantage in. S. M. Laßue did not go to Roselawn Thursday because there was no train to go on. Today, however, he returned there to look after his business. He makes daily trips between Rensselaer and Roselawn, living here and conducting his store there. Mrs. Mary E. Frost, 76 years of age, who has been making her home for almost two years with her nephew, Sylvester Gray, and who has been an invalid for a long time, Is Very low today and it is thought cannot live long. She has been under the care of a nurse for several weeks. Ben Zellars, the Fair Oaks man who had his hand caught in a corn shredder fan several days ago, was down today to have the hand dressed by Dr. Kresler, who was able to save all the fingers except that a portion of the bone had to be taken out of one. The injured member is healing nicely. C. B. Steward was in The Republican office this morning. He fears that the blizzard has killed all the quail in this part of the counrty. There were many covies of qiiail that had been spared from the hunters by the protection of the law and there were not many farmers that did not have a number of them. It will certainly be a great misfortune if all have been killed. Ernest Clark, who prior to last fall had been the linotype operator at The Republican office for several months, and who resigned to go to Colorado on account of his health, has secured a position as a. telegraph operator for the Denver & Rio Grande railroad at Malta, a small town 6 miles from Leadville. He will live at the latter place. His health is greatly improved since he left Rensseaer. When the match factory building was going on last fall, Lee Longachre and one or two other employees bought furniture and established bachelor quarters in rooms over Roth Bros, meat market. They bought on the installment plan and defaulted on the payments and today the dealer took the furniture and resold most of it to the Jefferson Club boys for furnishing their quarters in the K. of P. building. Their rooms will now be very attractive. . The game editor of the Berne Witness, whose home was dynamdted because he fought and exposed blind tigers and-who was whipped last week for writing up the alleged crooked work of a township trustee, copses out again with a scathing roast for his adversary. He says that the trustee is a rascal and has always led the worst element of the community and defies him to another attack. He says that be is game to the core and ready to “die j with his boots on.” ; ..... J'• • - ■ 1 ' : : --- - r ' James P. Overton, who has been at the home of his son, Dr. Albert Overton, at Tuscola, 111., for several-weeks, arrived here yesterday, having stopped off for a couple of days* visit in Indianapolis on his way home.
