They say that Decoration Day is not a day for politics and that no party should hold a convention on that day. We have been having some mighty hot weather for several days, the government thermometer at the college registering 91 on Monday, 92 on Tuesday and 89 Wednesday. Today seems quite as hot as any day yet There was another heavy rain. Wednesday afternoon and a little rain in the evening. Indications point to more nain today.

Dunlap went to Chicago this morning on business relating to a big sale of 10-acre tracts of land near Kniman. The former Springer ranch, consisting of 1,520 acres, is now owned by the Southern Land Investment Co, of Chicago, and is now being surveyed and platted into 10-acre tracts. Roads are being constructed and other things done preparatory to conducting a big sale, which will be conducted by V- J- Crisler and Attorney Dunlap, of Rensselaer, assisted by Chicago parties. It is planned to run an excursion out from Chicago, over the Monon to MeCoysburg and thence over the Gifford branch to the Springer ranch. Much interest is bring taken In the ball game to be played here next Sunday, when the Western Stars, a Chicago colored team, will oppose the Athletics. The interest is increased because Renssriaer will have an improved line-up. Hatton, who played part of last year with Goodland, will play second base and Parks will go to right field. The team this year has been hitting better than ever before and spectator like the hitting game, provided the home team does the hitting. The colored lads are hitters, runners and fast fielders and the indication for entertainment will bring out a large crowd.
