Horses Wanted.

An indianapoUs horse buyer will be here Saturday and wants to buy a car load of horses of any kind. Bring your horses on that day to Padgett’s livery barn and get the highest market price.

Born, March 21th, to Mr. and Mrs. Ambrose Marion, of near Surrey, a son.

There are quite a number o‘s late public sales this year and the prices are keeping up remarkably well. Fred Schultz’s sale Tuesday was a fine one, good prices being realized for everything. George Cover had a very good sale yesterday. The Marble sale at Wheatfield today is expected to attract a large crowd and will probably be one of the best sales held in the county this year. Friday of this week will take place the sale of Roy L. Harris on the Hopkins’ farm near Virgie.

Hamilton & Kellner can do your grinding in a hurry.

Marion Cooper. stopped at The Republican office for a few moments this morning and when asked if he remembered where he was a year ago today he admitted that he did not. Just a year ago today occurred the big flood and Marion’s house northeast of the stock yards was surrounded by -water which stood almost two feet deep on >the floor, of his house. He used a boat to transport himself and family to land. There were many other houses surrounded on the south side of the railroad, but Rensselaer got off very easily when compared to the great suffering in many other places. In fac£/ the water was not much worse here than it had been a time or two before.

Lon Colton, east of Rensselaer, has purchased from Crouch at Lafayette, a sound pure bred Jack. The law requires that all advertising for animals that make public stands be done in a manner setting forth the report of the veterinarian’s examination, the quality of the animal, as to whether he is pure bred, standaid bred, cross-bred or scrub. Failure to do this serves as a release from the service fee. No owner of an animal can afford to fail to stirctly comply with the law and Mr. Colton is advertising in. the right way. The law even prescribed the size, type to be used on posters and the comparative size of the type used in giving the name of the animal and setting forth his breeding classificatipn.

J. J. Fry, who mtfny years ago ran a bank at Roselawn, whose bank failed and who has since been spending much of his time in the southwest, seems to be at about the end of his string. Apparently Fry is mentally unbalanced and his personal habits are contributing to his ruin. Fry spent about a month here since the first of January and it seems borrowed money of a number and when he left he neglected to pay his 'board bill. He was absent only a day or two and when he returned he was badly used up, having been frightfully beaten. One report is that he was beaten up while on the train enroute to Chicago, another is that he was thrashed after his arrival in Chicago. At any rate his eyes and face were battered and he kept under cover here for about a week. He not stop at the hotel during this time. It is said that he drinks a lot of whiskey and this is hastening his ruin. Fry and his wife have been .separated for some time and he was tried by a sanity board at Michigan City Qot long ago, being discharged as sane. His actions, however, indicate that he is. ..far from right mentally. i
