We have put a new Ford in the livery business and will engage in advance pleasure drives for Sunday afternoons.—The Main Garage. Lowell will arrive with their ball team on the 2:01 train Sunday afternoon, and it is probable that a number of rooters will accompany the team. Manager Kelsey writes to say that he hopes the game is well advertised and that we have the banner crowd of the season. They will bring a man to Share the umpiring of the game. Lowell' has been very successful this season and Sunday’s game will give us a test 'of strength with local teams. Delphi want® Rensselaer to play there on June 21st and the date may be accepted, although as the team is to play at Goodland on the 28th, it is hoped to have a home game here the 21st, and the Jake Stall team, of Chicago, is after a game. It is also possible that the moving picture team of Chicago may be secured for that date.

Some youth with more mischief than sense tied down the whistle on Ed Kanne’e traction engine Wednesday evening. The engine te used to propel the stone crusher for the county on the H. R. Kurrie property and at the close of the day’s work the fire is banked and keeps until the next day. Some boy, said to be known to the owner of the engine, tied the whistle down and the continuous whistle attracted a great deal of attention. When Mr. Kanne heard It he bolted out of his house and across yards in the direction of the noise. He ran Into a clothes line, which caught him across the neck and upset him, but he continued his flight and soon had the whistle shut off. He then went up town to hunt for W. S. Forks, who has charge of the stone crusher work. A weft across his neck dhows where the clothes line caught him. It is fortunate that no serious damage resulted to the engine from-the escaping steam and it is fortunate for the young man that Ed’s boot did not come in contact with bis trousers, for Ed was in a frame of mind that would have caused Mm to put all the force he could muster behind the kick and it might have impressed a valuable lesson.« s
