REHBSELAER, INDIANA, FRIDAY* AUGUST 28, 1912.

Logansport Young Couple Married by Rev. W. G. Winn.

The wedding of a young Logansport couple was quietly solemnized this Friday morning at 9:30 o’clock, at the residence of Rev. W. G. Winn on North Van Rensselaer street. The contracting parties were Miss Jessie Mae Koon»and Mr. David Elmer Hufnagle. • They arrived here on the 11 o’clock train last night and made an appointment With Rev. w. g. Winn, pastor of the Christian church, to perform the ceremony this morning. Mrs. Winn was the only witness. The happy couple were reluctant to make any statements to The Republican but it was learned that they intended to take a few days’ honeymoon trip before returning to their home in Logansport. The bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Elias Koon, of southwest of this city, and is a very estimable young lady. For the past several years she has made her home in Logansport, where she has been employed. The groom is a young man of excellent qualities and is employed as a conductor on the Pan Handle Ry.

Rensselaer Band is “There With the Goods.”

In the write-up of the 7th annual picnic of the Lake county Odd Fellows association held at Lowell Saturday, the Lowell Tribune prints the following: “The Rensselaer band furnished beautiful music throughout the day, and gave a concert on the street in the morning and another in the evening. The concert in the evening was fine and our streets were packed to hear it.” Proof of the ability of our band lies in the fact that they are always invited back and given the glad hand where the quality of their music has been tested. They have filled several engagements at Lowell and other Lake county cities this summer and have invariably been tendered the keys to the city on their return visits there. Prof. Otto Braun has worked hard With his young material and we believe his efforts have been well rewarded.

We will pay two cents above market price for ear corn. HAMILTON & KELLNER.

Hew Rensselaer Hospital To Start September 5th.

Dr. C. E. Johnson, the Chicago surgeon, who with Dr. 1. M. Washburn, will run the new hospital, came Tuesday to reside permanently in Rensselaer. He went to Chicago today to purchase supplies and equipment for the hospital and an effort will be made to have the hospital opened by September sth. Several persons in Rensselaer have confused the name of the new coming surgeon with Dr. S. C. Johnson, who practiced here several years ago, and are under the impression that he is the same person, which is not so. Dr. Johnson’s headquarters will be at the hospital when it is opened, but until then he will make his office with. Dr. Washburn.

Burglary Is Becoming Common in Kentland.

Kentland Enterprise. Burglary Is becoming a common pastime in Kentland. Monday afternoon between one and four o’clock the home of Charles White, on North Fourth street, was entered and ransacked from cellar to garret. The contents of bureau, dresser and cupboard drawers were tossed out on the floor, presumably in the search of money and jewelry. One gold watch and five rings were missing, but a purse which ■Mrs. White had placed in a trunk", containing >l5O was not found. Entrance was gained by removing a screen from a window. No trace has of who committed the burglary. At least a half dozen hobos were seen in town Tuesday, and it may have been one of their number. ’ Early Friday morning White’s restaurant was broken into again, and some sugar, coffee and other goods taken, but to what extent could, not be determined. A new apron hanging in the kitchen was appropriated to carry away the loot in. ) Such work is becoming too common in Kentland and steps should be taken to land the guilty parties.

The beauty, the easy-riding qualities, the comfort and the wonderful equipment of the R-C-H are naturaljy the first things that the observer notes. But as the R-C-H owner drives his car month after month, the quality that impresses him most is the inherent, in-built sturdiness of the car—its ability to withstood easily all the strain and stress to which a car is put in daily use. This sturdiness is due to the most unremitting care and attention to every detail of construction from the selection of the raw material to the completed car. For example, the bulk of the iron ore used comes from a mine which was the main reliance of the Government in making the powerful Rodman cannon—guns of civil-war fame. Of late years most of the output has been contracted for by railroads, which find no other ore suitable to stand the tremendous strain to which carwheels are put , Again, there are 244 separate drop-forgings in the RrC-H. We drop-forge every part practicable, including many which no other monufacturer has heretofore attempted. And drop-forgings are practically indestructible —which every motorist knows is not true of castings. • In every item of R-C-H construction and equipment the same staunchness, sturdiness, dependability, is apparent Time will only make you prouder of your car and its equipment - ° ' R-C-H Corporation, Detroit, Mich., or John M.

Minnesota Suffragists Will Prove To Men They are Domestic.

Darn the government, darn the socka. That’s the way to the ballot box; Patch the holes In hubby’s hose, March to the polls and voice your woes. This is the battle cry of the Minnesota suffragettes. The darning needle will supplant the brickbat as the weapoi of the Minnesota Woman’s Suffrage League, which has decided to maintain a booth at the state fair, September 2 to 5, and invite all men to bring their sox to be darned. This will be done to counteract the impression that the masculine proclivities for suffrage incapacitate women for household work. They will start the campaign with this battle cry. One of the most common ailments that hard working people are afflicted with is lame back. Apply Chamberlain’s Liniment twice a day and massage the parts thoroughly at each application, and you will get quick relief. For sale by all dealers.
