Stopped the Train to Get Her Umbrella—Misunderstood.
Just as the milk train was pulling out this morning a lady came dashing up the platform and be lieving that she was desirous of taking passage on the train an attache at the depot called to the road master who was on the rear platform. He rushed inside and pulled the bell signal and the train was brought to a standstill. But the lady did not want to board the train. She had just left it and had forgotten to get her umbrella. Through the courtesy of a passenger the umbrella was found and tossed off the train. The next person who wants to get on a train 'that is pulling out will have some trouble doing so.
Reynolds Man Returns From His "Folly" Trip to West.
David Weaver, the farmer who lives near Reynolds and who disappeared mysteriously >last week, and later telegraphed his wife from St. Louis that he was headed for Seattle, Wash., has returned home. Just what Sort of a caper he was trying to cut, does not seem clear, but the effect seems to be that he has humiliated his family and made a fool of himself. The Purdue football squad, 29 in number, passed through Rensselaer for Chicago on the 10:12 train. Coach Smith left the train long enough at this point to send a telegram to the hotel at which the team will stop, orderingpa private dining room and distilled - water for the use of the players. Fresh oysters at Rowen & Kiser’s, 40c quart. Firman Thompson went to Chicago on business today. He will be unable to Return home until after the Purdue-Chicago football game. B. F. Fendig also went to Chicago this afternoon. He will returii home after the game. The writer is feeling feeverish and is quite apt to make a combination of football and dairy show. How does that sound for a brief vacation? Don’t forget 202 when you want something in the grocery line. See me for estimates on all kinds of electric wiring. WM. BABCOCK, Jr. G. H. Schreiber, wanted in South Bend and a score of other cities in the middle west on charges of selling fake prismatic wave machines, the alleged pdrpose of which was to remove superfluous hair from the faces of women, was prrested Wednesday at Minneapolis, Minn., and is being brought back to South Bend. Over at Monticello it is reported that booze is being used for campaign purposes. Any attempt to do this should be met with the most vigorous prosecution. The time is past when such disgraceful practices are to be indulged under any circumstances, while the law makes it an offence that provides severe punishment. Especially in these clean and law abiding towns, where liquor can not be legally sold under any circumstances, should every good citizen take a hand and help to wipe out any effort to corrupt the vote with the use of liquor. We believe that Rensselaer people will not stand for any practice of this and we l\ave confidence that our people are generally mighty well pleased that there are no licensed saloons here and very little clandestine selling of the stuff. It would be a calamity if were ever to be returned to our fair city, and it would be a like calamity if the administration of the affairs of the town should ever fall into hands where the violators of the liquor laws were not prosecuted. It behooves the voters to keep this in mind and to vote for men for office who will pledge law enforcement. I When in need of working clothes or hardware see C. Wilson Bussell, McCoysburg, Ind.

MEXICO IS AGAIN ON THE FRONT PAGE
Looks Like Uncle Sam Will Tet Have to Take Hand in Settling the Disturbances There. The Mexican situation is tense again and drastic action by the United States is not improbable. Fighting is reported on the outskirts of Monterey, while reports of small engagements, from various <?lties are told in dispatches. President Wilson Thursday asked all visitors to refrain from mentioning the Mexican situation, and this leads to the belief that he is apt to change his attitude toward that country. England has indicated that tiie United States should take a more determined policy or withdraw its objection and let that country or some other take a hand in the matter. An ultimatum from the president Is not improbable.
Change Made in Personnel Of Pension Board Examiners.
Lafayette Journal. The commissiofier’of pensions, E. M. Salzgaber, who has his headquarters at Washington, D. C., has notified Drs. S. S. Washburn,’ R. E. Wetherill and E. B. Ruschli, of this city, of their, appointment on the United States pension examination board These gentlemen succeed Drs. O. E. Throckmartin, of Battle Ground; W. F. Mcßride, of Dayton, and J. S. Morrison, of this city, who have served on this board for the past eight years. The recommendation was endorsed by Congressman John B. Peterson, of this district. Dr. WSshburn, because of his long, strenuous and ardent affiliation to the democratic party, will serve as president. President Woodrow Wilson insists that this medical committee be of non-partisan make-up, and following that advice Dr. Wetheril is the republican appointed. This change does not come unexpectedly as rumors have been afloat for some time that the personnel of the board would undergo a change.
This Game Not Played in Lands Populated by Heathens.
A traveler who believed himseUf to be sole survivor of a shipwreck upon a cannibal isle hid for three days in terror of his life. Driven out by hunger,. he discovered a thin wisp of smoke rising from a clump oi hushes inland, and so crawled carefully to study the type of savages about it. Just as he reached the clump he heard a voice say: “Why in hell did you play that card?” He dropped on his knees and, devoutly raising his hands, cried: “Thank God they are Christians!”—Everybody’s. With numerous dairy maids, 1,000 blooded cows and hundreds of other interesting exhibits, the national dairy exposition will open at the stockyards amphitheatre in Chicago. The cows are valued at $2,000,000. ■... 'President Wilson signed the urgent deficiency bill Wednesday.

OUR BOYS and GIRLS
The lily of rife Valley! - - ** , '*' ,> +*ot*b*» Once upon a time, a long while ago, there lived in a tiny house near a large garden a fairy mother with ever and ever so many fairy children. All the children were dressed alike, in green slippers and stockings, white suits, and white pointed caps with a dewdrop shining on top. One evening the fairy mother said, “You may take your small Ivory buckets and fill them with dew from the flowers In the garden, but be sure to come home before the sun rises.” Oft they started, running and swinging the buckets in their hands; but, when they reached the garden, instead of working, they began to teeter on the grass blades, and play hide-and-seek among the flowers. And, do you know, they played and played all that night, and forgot all about the dew and the Ivory buckets, till the great red sun could be seep. It was past time for going home and too late to gather dew. What would the fairy mother say! “We’ll hang our Ivory buckets on these stems, and to-night come and fill them,” they said. Then they went home, and they felt very sorry when -they saw how sad their fairy mother looked. As soon as the sun went down, they hurried to the garden. First one little fairy, then another and another, tried to pick his bucket from the stem where he had left It, but it was of no use. All the buckets were tightly fastened to the stems, and turned upside down. They have been fastened that way ever since, and perhaps, if you look In your garden, you will find some pf the fairies’ Ivory buckets. —Emma L. Hammonel In Kindergarten Review.
The Land of Picture Books.
In the Land of Picture Books Are open roads and shady nooks. And. sandy places by the sea, And fairy rings ’neath spreading tree. There is a world of girls and boys, There are many tools and toys; Something new whenev’er one looks In the Land of Picture Books.
Curious children gather there From over seaß and everywhere, And dress so queer, and strangely play— Bet I kndw everything they say. Beasts and birds one never see* Upon our lawns or In our trees, Throng the slgHt, whene'er one looks In the Land of Picture Books. —Washington Star.
The Jeweler.
The gentleman wAo acts the' part of Jeweler whispers Into the ear of each player the name of the gem he or she is to be known by. Thus, he whispers to the first, “You must be a Sapphire”; and to the next, "You must be an Emerald”; and to a third, "You must be a Topaz”; and so on until they have all received names, taking oare that several of the company have received the name of one gam—say, the Diamond. He then places a small table before the door. In such a position that only one person can pass through at a time. Then he takes his place near the table, and addressing the company, says: “I am a Jeweler; lam the Court Jeweler, and the Qneen has ordered a parure, to complete which my workmen are now waiting for an Amethyst" The Amethyst Immediately Jumps up and runs Into the hall as quickly as possible. The Jeweler then says, "I most also have a Turquoise,” and the Turquoise responds bjr following the Amethyst All the others should be called before he mentions the Diamond, and when that demand Is made an who have received the name of Diamond rush simultaneously to the door, each thinking all the rest are acting under a mistake. The aperture being Altogether too narrow tor their hurried egress, the contusion causes much merriment If a still wider degree of scrimmage Is desired, it may be brought about by the Jeweler making a rule at the commencement of the gamp that the gems must pass through the door before he can count ten after calling their semes, la this case all the Diamonds must be gentlemen, as that part of the game would be too rough play for ladles to engage in.

Disappearance of Graham
Jameson, the manager, was deeply perplexed. He thought almost remorsefully of Graham’s disappointment at his refusal to give him a trial as “character man.* There was to be a change in the personnel of the stock company and Graham had asked to be transferred from his customary role of leading juvenile. Jameson, however, had firmly denied the request Graham's final plea had been: “Give me three days; don’t fid the vacancy before then, and when the time is up if you still think I can't-do it I‘U sob" mit without a murmur.” • Jameson, who liked the lad, reluctantly gave his word, and within an hour Graham disappeared. He had just drawn his salary, and when the fact became known his friends feared foul play and notified the police. Rehearsals were dreary-affairs without his sunny presence, and the performances dragged wearily along. Newspaper men haunted Jameson's -offices and countlesssalarming rumors were afloat. Graham had been*, missing a full day before the manager; gained an inkling of his whereabouts; It was snowing hard when he left the theatre late in the evening. Close by the stage entrance, just outside - the radius of the flickering gas jet, crouched an old woman, with a basket on her arm, half-fill ?d with apples and oranges. Touched by her evident poverty and forlorn condition, Jameson poured a handful of silver into her ragged glove and kindly bade her seek for the night She scrambled \to her feet with a mumbled “ Thank $ ye, sir,” and shambled off down the* narrow street. Under the lamp at the first comer she suddenly straightened her shoulders, threw back heri head and for a brief moment Jack Graham’s merry, mocking laugh rank in Jameson’s startled ears. But he wisely 'kept his own counsel, and at noon the next day the police had found no trace of the missing Graham. Early In the afternoon Jameson crossed the street for a shine, and a new boy promptly waited upon him. His work proved exceptionally good, -and when his patron handed him a shining, new dime his dark eyes sparkled. Like a flash came recognition, but before Jameson could speak Graham had slipped out through a rear door. That afternoon, when he saw the downcast face of every member of the company and heard the many fears for Graham’s safety expressed, his eyes twinkled and his lips twitched in an irrepressible smile. The boy was alive and well and Jameson was enjoying th,e situation. About 8 o'clock that evening -a friend, who managed a vaudeville house, telephoned an Invitation for that night. “We engaged a dancer today who is a star,” he explained over the wire. | Jameson went, fully prepared for disappointment, for his own taste and that of his friend were often at variance. But the new star proved to be a marvel. Her dance combined the joy of youth with the fire and passion of maturity. She had an audacious grace that was wholly her own, nd when she disappeared behind the scenes the house was in an uproar of approbation and delight As soon as possible Jameson went; behind the curtain and begged to meet the dancer. She received him smilingly and chattered to him In excellent French. Jameson, who clung persistently to English, was soon forced to retreat, / carrying with him the memory of a bewildering smile. Promptly at 10 o’clock the following morning Graham walked into the office. “I came in a taxi to avoid observation, he-said, casually, as Jameson looked up. “I understand the police are looking for me.” Jameson grinned. “I helped them drag the river yesterday morning,” Graham added; “bnt they did not seem to recognise me." Jameson chuckled, and motioned him to a seat . “I hear Lester's got a new sensation. Did you see her?” Graham asked! * Jameson answered eagerly. “She is great. Best one I’ve seen this season. Nice little girl, too. If she oould only talk English.” Graham oould contain himself no longer, and he laughed until the window panes rattled. A look of amazed comprehension slowly dawned in Jameson’s face. “You!” he gasped. Graham nodded,.then choked back: his mirth. “Say, Jameson, suppose yon sign, that contract with me and call off the police,” he suggested, with a backward i glance toward the open door, whence came the sound of familiar voices; rapidly approaching. And Jameson signed.—Mrs. Bessie D. Duoey. t
Tommy Scores One.
“Oo back and shut the door. Tommy! ” ordered Mr. Tucker, \wlth a frown. "Carelessness such as that never made anybody rich." “Why. yes It did, paw, said Tommy. “Think how rich it made the man who Invented that dingus that goes on the top of a door and makse It elms Itself. “-Chisago Tribune.
