COUNTY TICKET BY PROGRESSIVES

Few of the Leaders Met Thursday and Placed a Ticket In the Field—- . Considerable Opposition. The progressive party committeemen, or part of them, met at the Princess Theatre last Thursday afternoon and named candidates for part of the offices in Jasper county. The action of the committeemen was kept a profound'secret until today. It is understood that the object of this silence was to await hearing from some of the men named to see if they would permit their names- going on the ticket The ticket as named is as follows: For Treasurer, William C. Smalley, of Remington. For Recorder, Charles D. Shook, of DeMotte. For Sheriff, Solomon A. Norman, of Parr. For Commissioner 2nd District, Eli Arnold, of Barkley township. For Commissioner 3rd District, William O. Roadifer, of Carpenter township. The men named, we believe, are all excellent citizens. Some of them aided in nominating the republican ticket We believe all are or were republicans with the exception of Mr. Norman, who was elected assessor of Union township as a democrat. The method of naming the ticket was not in line with the professed policy of the progressives, that of giving every person a chance .and of being sure that the people all had a chance to express themselves. Many progressives have stated that they" wojild not support a ticket named by their party and It is probable that the ticket will fall far short of receiving the support of the voters who are for Roosevelt and Beveridge.

TEACHERS ARE HERE FOR INSTITUTE

Fair Pedagogues ses With a Sprinkling of Masculines are Here for Annual Intermingling. The teachers of Jasper county, about 125 in number, are here to attend the annual institute. Heretofore it lias been held the last week In August during the sweltering heat. The experiment of,holding it later looks like it should prove satisfactory. The feminine teachers far outnumber the masculine. The meetings are to be held at the Methodist church. Prof. G. I. Christie, of Purdue University, is to be here Thursday and Friday. His instruction will be largely devoted to agricultural topics and therefore all the farmers who can should arrange to attend as many of the meetings as possible. His instruction will be largely by lectures and the main one of these will be given Thursday night. His subject will then be “Better Rural Life Through Better Schools.” • County Superintendent Lamson is anxious that a large crowd shall greet him on Thursday evening. All lectures are free. Try to arrange to attend the meeting Thursday night Superintendent Lamson has arranged to have reports of the institute published each, day and we believe this will prove interesting to all readers and to the teachers as well.

FACTS AND FICTION.

Experiences of Rensselaer Citizens are Easily Pro Yen to he Facts. The most superficial investigation will prove that the following statement from a resident of Rensselaer is true. Read it and compare evidence from Rensselaer people with testimony of strangers living so far away you cannot investigate the facts of the case. Many more citizens of Rensselaer endorse Doan’s Kidney Pills. Nelson Randle, N. Main St, Rensselaer, Ind., says: “I have used Doan’s Kidney Pills at different times' when suffering from a lame and aching bach and other symptoms of disordered kidneys. I was led to procure this remedy at Fendig’s Drag Store, by reading about its good work In similar cases. Relied soon followed its use and the backache and kidney difficulties were’ finally disposed of. Whenever I have taken Doan’s Kidney Pills since then-they have lived up to representations. I do not know of a case where this remedy has failed to prove of benefit” ‘ For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New Tork, sole agents for the United States.

FOUND NO EVIDENCE OF UNNATURAL DEATH

Coroner Wright Found Mo Marks on Body of Edna Lintman’s Baby— Burled Without Permit. Coroner Wright, who was induced to go to a graveyard northeast of Kersey last Saturday to exhume and examine the body of an illegitimate child bom Thursday to Edna Lintman, found no marks on the child that might indicate foul play. Dr. JD. N. Loy accompanied him there and Dr, Fyfe, of Wheatfleld, was also present and examined the body. The child had been buried without ■a permit, and an affidavit has been filed at the clerk’s office against Eugene Lang, with whom the girl has made her home for a long time. It Is thought probable that the case against him will be pushed. The Lintman girl filed charges against a young man named Lea Terry and at the preliminary trial held at Kouts Terry was released. It is said that a number of young men there made threats against Lang, whom they claimed to have been responsible for the girl’s condition. A statement made by Mrs. Lang, it is beileved, would prove a complete alibi for Terry, who lives in Porter county. Dr. Blood, of Hebron, was called to attend the girl. He called Dr. Fyfe in consultation. The child Was apparently dead when born but artificial means of respiration were resorted to and when the doctors left several hours after the child was born it was apparently air right The next day Long reported its death. He went to Wheatfleld and bought a casket in the absence of Undertaker Keen. Dr. Fyfe would not give a certificate of the cause of death and Lang went ahead and buried the baby anyway. Neighbors were suspicious and the exhumation followed. At the coroner’s inquest it developed that the baby died in the lap of a neighbor woman, Mrs. Jennie Crawford. Among other witnesses before the inquest was Mrs. John Nordhouse, mother of the Lintmian girl. She was very indignant that her daughter, whb is 23 years of age, continues to make her home with the Langs and talked very plainly about it. This is the second time the girl has had trouble, the previous occasion being about five years ago. At the Inquest Lang claimed that he went to Dr. Blood for a burial certificate and that he found Dr. Blood sick in bed, but was told that he could go ahead and bury the child and he would fix the certificate after he recovered. Some doubt seemed to accompany this statement from Lang.

Eight Hundred Tons Belonging to Guild & Robinson, Frank Hart and Others Was Burned Up. A bad fire occurred at Stoutsburg last Wednesday, when about 800 tons of baled hay burned. The hay had been piled in large ricks waiting for cars for shipment, and about 11 o’clock Wednesday night fire was discovered in some of the ricks. Help was quickly summoned a,nd by hard work the fire was surrounded and gotten under control, but not until about 800 tons had been burned. There.was about 1,200 tons stored there altogether. The hay belonged to Guild & Robinson, of Medaryville, Frank Hart, of DeMotte, H. W. Marble and Geo. Stembel, of Wheatfleld, and is reported to be partially cohered by insurance.

MANY WENT ON THE FRENCH LICK TRIP

Rensselaer Furnished 182 Passengers for Excursion—Train Delayed by . Derailed Car— Fine Time. Agent Beam was right about his calculation for the French Lick excursion. He said the middle of last week that there would be one hundred or more and there were 132. The train was delayed at Limedale. A freight car loaded with stone had gone olf the “derail” track. The train did not reach French Lick until about 4 o’clock Sunday afternoon, almost four hours late. There was ample time, however, to visit the hotel grounds, springs, etc., and to see the camp of the 23rd U. S. Infantry and to witness the parade and exhibition drill. Returning the train left French Lick at about 9 o’clock and arrived in Rensselaer this Monday morning at about 6 o’clock, The passengers spent about twenty hours on the train but all we have talked with report a fine trip. The passenger ticket sales at the Monon Sunday exceeded S4OO.
