Men will be sent out from the-auditing department to collect tickets and fares and conductors will have nothing to do except to look after the running of trains. If the plan is satisfactory, collectors will be sent on the plug runs. The plan was used by the Wabash railroad for sometime but has been discontinued. William Bond, who moved from Jasper county to New Buffalo, Mich., some time ago, is now engaged in the grocery and drug business in that town. In writing to have The Repub lican sent to him, he says: “I graduated from the New Buffalo high school this spring. In April my father bought a store for me, and believe me I had to do some humping to keep store and school in mind. They I had to hire two clerks but now I’ve put in a meat market and this caused me to hire a butcher. Now all four of us are on a. continual go.”

Mr. O’Shaugftinessey, attorney for the" match factory people, was here yesterday, and met the city council last evening and discussed the matter of putting in the water mains and signing the contract providing for the same. He said that the contract was satisfactory to the company wito the exception of the clause requiring them to give bond to take the water for a term of five years. He states that it is impossible to give a surety bond, as there is -no company that issues a bond of that kind. He said that they were wjlling to give security for the carrying out of tiheir part of the contract and the contract was today changed to meet his views. He took it to Chicago to be signed by the directors and claims that they will go ahead with the paying off of claims and the other requirements of the contract

Mr. Wilson, chief engineer for the Purtelle interurban road, and three railroad men, were here a short time Saturday evening in the interest of the road. They arranged with a local attorney while here to look up certain matters connected with the subsidy voted for the road, and stated they would be back here in a few days. Mr. Wilson expressed his confidence while here in the early construction of the road and said they hoped to get' matters in shape by the last of the month eo as to begin the work of securing the right-of-way and of construction at that time. If the road is built construction work will ■’begin at this point first, the object being to complete the work through the township at an early date. Prospects for an interurban for Rensselaer are constantly growing brighter since Purtelle has assigned his rights to others, and if this road is not; built it is almost certoin that some other company will build through here in the next two or three years, as a result of the agitation given the matter through the Purtelle project
