The death Monday noon of Aileen Mildred, infant of Mr. and - Mrs. Tom was a severe shock to the parents.

The funeral! will be held at St. Augustine's Catholic church at‘9 o’clock Wednesday morning and burial will be made in jUt. Calvary cemetery.

The RepubMean is pleased to be able to publish in this tissue a very clever, we may say decidedly Ingenious composition entitled "Reminiscences of Rensselaer.” It was written by Miss Beatrict Tilton, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Til-., ton, who is a member of this year’s senior class of the Rensselaer high school,, and was read by ’her at the literary program given at the high school last Friday afternoon, being one of several numbers which exhibited a great amount of talent that has been developed during the three years since the literary societies have been organized. The composition shows that Miss Tilton is very observing and many of the things and occurrences efae mentions in a highly humorous way will be recognized by most of our readers. We believe that George Ade in his palmiest days as the writer of “Hables in Slang" did not have any the better of Miss Tilton, and feelthatshehasa place in the literary world if ahe wlll follow the style she has so pleasingly essayed in the article published today.

Sol Guth made a business trip to Chicago today. He still has a large force of men cutting timber at his farm southeast of town. He brought a dozen men down from Chicago about a month ago. Only one of the dozen is still working, but the employment agency has been sending men every few days and he has 17 working now. Some are lazy, some work a few days and are overcome by their appetites, we would say by aMotriophagy, but some of our sensitive exchanges would never get over it, and some didn’t want to work-in the first place, but just came down because their fare was paid. The men receive S3O a month and board.
