WILL SEE REPORTER WHEN LEAVING TOWN

Absence of Mrs. E. M. Thomas Explained'and She is Again With Husband in Rensselaer. The rather sensational article about the disappearance of Mrs. E. M. Thomas caused considerable wonderment Tuesday, but it seems that everything has come out all right and that the excitement was more the cause of a misunderstanding* than anything else. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas returned home this Wednesday morning on the 4:44 train, both perfectly happy aside from the unpleasant notoriety occasioned by the report that she had left with the intention of not returning to her home. Mr. Thomas has been working with Snyder Bros., the carpenters, at Mt. Ayr, and was home over Sunday, returning to Mt. Ayr Monday morning. Mrs. Thomas thought that he would not return -home until Saturday and decided to go to Indianapolis to see Mrs. Cook, Who formerly ran the Rensselaer House. She also intended to visit her farm, near Sheridan, where she is having an addition built to the barm She took a notion rather suddenly and in her haste to get away .did not make the note which she left behind very explanatory. As a matter of fact she did not expect that Larsh would get back home to see it at all. Larsh came home to the election and found the note, Which stated that Mrs. Thomas had gone away but did not state where she had gone. She had been talking about a visit to Crawfordsville and Larsh thought she had gone there, but Don Beam, assistant at tire depot, recalled that she had checked her suitcase to Indianapolis and Larsh went there and found her at the home of Mrs. Cook, who has a rooming house at the corner southeast of the postoffice. She was surprised to find Mr. Thomas there so soon after she arrived and also surprised to find that he was alarmed about her disappearance and the trip to Sheridan was abandoned and they returned home together as above stated: ‘ Mrs. Thomas vows that she will not again leave Rensselaer without informing The Republican reporter where she is going. It seems, however, that there has bee some effort on the part of neighbors to create some jealousies between Mr. and Mrs. Thomas and it is hoped they refrain from so doing in the future.

LOGANSPORT TO PLAY HERE NEXT SATURDAY

Rensselaer High School to Have Cass Cunty Team as Opponents —Good Game Expected. Logansport high school is to oppose Rensselaer high school on the gridiron 'here Saturday, Nov. Bth.

This will be the first game played with an Indiana the other two games having been with Watseka and Chicago Heights. Coach Parker, assisted by Morgan and Nowels, is still working with the Rensselaer athletes and they will present a splendid lineup Saturday and will contest every foot of the ground. A large crowd is expected and lively rooting will encourage the home boys to another victory. This will be the last game at home before Thanksgiving unless another is scheduled later. On Saturday, Nov. 15th, the team will go to Hammond and a very hard game is expected there.

HALLOWE’EN CAUSED TROUBLE IN MILROY

John Ward, Former Resident of Rensselaer, Has a Fight and Later His Barn is Burned. Serious trouble occurred in Milroy township as a result of some Hallowe’en pranks. John Ward, the well driller, formerly a resident of this cdty, and his son, Clayton, had trouble with Joe Grouns and John Havens, and later the barn <fn the farm occupied by Ward was burned to the ground. The Republican gets the following story, which may be incorrect in some of the details: Some time Friday night buggies belonging to Grouns and Havens disappeared. They blamed Clayton Ward, son of John Ward, and Grouns went to the Ward home and demanded that Clayton ,fao6 him. Clayton was in bed and his father claims he had not been away from home the night before and could not possibly have had anything with the disappearance of the buggies. He told Grouns that Clayton was in bed and that he would not call ordered Grouns from the place. He left and had gone down the road only a dhort distance when Havens appeared. Ward and Havens had words and Ward says Havens struck him and then ran but did not run fast enough. Ward grappled with him and they were fight-, ing and Havens called to Groups to return. Grouns picked up a club and started back and Mrs. Ward got Clayton up and he slipped on the stairs and came down. He may have slipped on his pants also Dut he didn’t have on much; The elder .Ward, in the meantime had produced a weapon that Is very effective In cases of this kind, having 'drawn a revolver, and its effect was sufficient to cause Grouns and Havens to leave. That closed the incident for that day. Theinext morning the Ward fam-

ily drove to the home of Ed Johnson to spend the day. Some neighbors discovered the barn on the farm occupied by Ward to be on fire and before anything could be done it was completely destroyed. The mow was filled with thradhed millet and some harness and other tools were lost. The barn was insured. An adjuster who came there to make settlement Tuesday became satisfied that the barn had been set on fire by an Incendiary and he has procured the services of a detective and expects to trace the fire to its origin.

DANGEROUS TO DODGE THE NEW INCOME TAX

Fine of $2,000 and Imprisonment Are Possible for'Misrepresentation—Returns Inspected. Those who attempt to avoid payment of the ineome tax will get Into serious trouble, treasury department officials said Monday. They pointed out that the law provides that persons who fail to make returns or make fraudulent returns will be punished by a fine of not less than $2,000 or imprisonment for one year or both, at the discretion M the court.

Of course, the government is going to rely somewhat on the honesty of the individual, but there will be other ways of finding out if such returns are in proptr shape. For instance, a corps of 334 deputy collectors, besides special agents and Inspectors, will be selected to. enforce the provisions of the law. The deputy collectors are to co-op-erate with the collectors of Internal revenue, while the agents and inspectors will work directly under the commissioner of internal revenue at Washington. Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo believes that the regulations thus far issued, providing for the collections on incomes at the source, are not as complicated os some persons believe. He thinks that after they have been in operation a while there will be little or no need for any change. He admits they were got out somewhat hurriedly in order to take effect November 1, and that perhaps they may need amending.
