They left for Bucyrus, Ohio, on a wedding trip, and after a few days’ visit with relatives there will return here for a short visit and then take up their residence at Francesville, where the groom is engaged in the carpenter contract business.

Elmer Godshall and Walter Selby went to Pullman, 111., this morning, where they expect to secure employment in the Pullman shops. Judged by the parties who were at the depot to bid them goodbye, they are apt to spend a number of their Sundays in Rensselaer, even though they locate at Pullman.

Mrs. R. B. Porter, who has been visiting in Rensselaer and at other points since her father, J. V. Parkison’s funeral, left this morning for Valparaiso, where she will visit Mrs. I; J. Porter and Bert Brenner and family. She will then go to Chicago and—spend a day with Mel Wishard and wife and start for her home in South Dakota Sunday.

Edward Kanne was carrying a chunk of coal weighing about fifty pounds Wednesday evening and slipped on the icy walk and fell, the chunk of coal striking him on the left ankle and severely spraining it. It is thought by the attending physisian that no bones are broken but the sprain will probably lay him up for some time.
