Charles Benjamin, manager' for the past two years of the Delphi Oomera baseball team, has tendered his resignation. He had, according to The Daily Herald,-been the object of much “unjust criticism.” The new managers will put all players on a salary basis and they will be paid off after each game. A St. Patrick's dance will fake place at the armory this evening and Freeberg’s orchestra from Lafayette has been engaged to furnish the music. The piano, saxophone and drums are to be used. A large crowd was expected and it is hoped she weather clears up so that they can get out without great inconvenience.

The Republican made an error yesterday in stating that the final basketball contest at Bloomington was between Wingate and Lebanon. It should have said between Wingate and Apderson. The score was 36 to 8. In the game between Wingate and Lebanon, which was in the semi-finals, Wingate won by the score of. 14 to 8. The Indiana state public service commission has promised to give a finding in regard to electric rates and services in Elkhart some time prior to August 1, which is the date of the expiration of the city’s street lighting contract with the Indiana & Michigan Electric company. The petition asks for six-cent electricity and the right for the city to encourage a competing concern.

“Fight the democrats this year, not the progressives,” was the decision of the executive committee of the Indiana Republican Editorial association, at a meeting held at the Hotel Severin in Indianapolis Saturday. The members said this was a time of conciliation and get together, and that the democratic party, therefore was the common enemy for the coming campaign. While there are some times intervals of five or six weeks between deaths it is rather unusual. The last call Undertaker AYright had was on Feb. 23rd, which was three weeks ago. There were only two funerals in this locality during the month of January. Jasper county, as all may see, is a very healthy place and there is little use to hunt a warm climate in the winter time. There is some recent activity in county republican politics. Until yesterday there was only one avowed candidate for county 'assessor, James E. Moore, of Barkley township. Yesterday John O’Connor announced himself as a candidate and today Green L. Thornton, of Newton township, threw his hat into the ring. The convention will make no mistake in selecting any one of the three.

Saturday, Sunday and Monday, and especially Sunday were delightful days. The warmth of spring, the cheering sunshine of a cloudless sky and the balmiest southern breeze made it a day quite near perfection. Today, however, the air is chilly and a misty rain is falling. The forecast was for fair weather today and tomorrow, and evidently the prognosticator got his wires crossed. For any pain, burn, scald or bruise, apply Dr. Thomas’ Eclectic Oil—the household remedy. Two sizes, 25c and 50c at all drug stores. Ellswirth Plumstead, impersonator and dialect reader, delighted two audiences yesterday, one in the afternoon and the other in the evening. Many assert that Mr. Plumstead surpasses any previous talent in this line of work. His delineations of children, rurals, et cetera, take in a large scope of characters Richmond (Ind.) Morning News, Sept. 4, 1910. At M. E. church Monday evening.

Emmet Eldridge, who works in the Union stock yards in Chicago, where he buys stock for a firm every Monday and Wednesday, recently recovered from the mumps, which he did not have in a very bad form. He was in Rensselaer when he took th,<mi and Vic Hoover, who had been of th compression that he had them when younger, visited him and the result is that Vic now has a bad case. Jimmie Eldridge, the ball player, also has them, having also visited Emmet. Doan’s Regulets are recommended by many who say they operate easily, without griping end without bad after effects. 25c at all drug stores.

Postmaster at Tecate, Cal., Murdered and Store Burned—Martial Law Declared. < Frank Johnston, postmaster at Tecate, Cal., was murdered Saturday night by Mexican bandits, who crossed the border into the United States and murdered the postmaster when he sought to defend his property. They then fired the postoffice and customs office. .. Martial law was proclaimed Monday for several miles along the border. Citizens are armed and parade the border ready to resent any action on the part of Mexicans that is anti-American. Governor Johnson, of California, has been asked to make a demand of Vasquez, governor of Lower California, to deliver the men believed to have caused Johnson’s death to the authorities of California. Secretary Bryan is “investigating.” It is reported that another Texan had lost his life in Mexico. He was a watchman and telegraph dispatches say that his head was split open with an axe. Rebels have met another defeat at the hands of federals. Dis■patches say that the constitutionalists were routed with a loss exceeding 50Q.—- —— - i — ——

He was 49 years of age and she was 40 and it was the first marriage for each.

Dr. J. N. Hurty, state health commissioner, told the Marion county auditors at Indianapolis Thursday that he intends asking the next legislature to enact a law creating the office of health commission for each county of the state. He will also suggest that the salary of such a commissioner be placed at $1,500 a year and that the appointee be required to give his entire time to the work. .. . _.—

Order a rubber stamp today from The Republican. Mrs. E. Kaub, of Watertown, Wis., ih sending a renewal for The SemiWeekly Republican, writes: “Please extend the time of my subscription, for, although we have a house full of other papers, we can not do without The Republican, and twice every week, two people in Watertown, eagerly await its coming. It enables us, ’though widely separated, to keep somewhat in touch with the many friends in Rensselaer. Have had a fine winter here. A little snow in places but going fast on account of the bright sunshine. t Itching, bleeding, protruding or blind piles have yielded to Doan’s Ointment. 50c at all stores. N. W. Reeve, for many years in charge of the American Express office here, was 80 years old Sunday and members of the family gathered at the home that, evening. Mr. Reeve is doubtless one of the best men of his age in the county and he gave a sample of his health when be bent over and assumed a posture which he said he thought when a young man he would be in at the age of fifty. He then did a jig that would tax the activity of most men of forty to show how well he feels at the age of eighty. Mr. and Mrs. Reeve are cozily located in their new bungalow and are just as happy as any honeymoon coupl e on earth.

Order your coal of the GrantWarner Lumber Co. A new car of Jackson Hill just received. Marshal Shesler is planning an active campaign to eelan up the city this spring and should hove the willing co-operation of every citizen. Ash piles and manure piles should be hauled away and all rubbish burned that it is possible to burn. Other rubbish should be buried or hauled to the city dumping grounds. There is, of course, a big accumulation of filth since the cold spell set in on the first of February and the sooner it is removed the fewer will be the breeding places for the flies. Marshal Shesler will do his share with the city’s end of the work and it is hoped that every resident falls In line and starts the movement for a more beautiful Rensselaer off with a yjm.
