Stole 200 Chickens From , Charles Guttrich Recently.

Charles Guttrich, who lives on the Dr.' Besser farm southeast of this city, reports the theft of some 200 chickens from his home one night this week. He believes that chloroform was thrown into the room occupied by himself and wife to make them sleep soundly while the thieves took the chickens. He Is also of the opinion ’that chloroform was used in the chicken house to make the chickens sleep. Awakened in the early morning himself and wife could smell the odor of> the chloroform in their bedroom. They tried to follow the thieves in an automobile but lost track of them. Some clr'ckens which were running loose seemed groggy. The day before the theft occurred two men claiming to he hook agents were at the Guttrich home and one of them seemed to prod about the premises while the other talked books. It is believed that they were the thieves.

Dr. James B. Honan and Wife In Gravenbage, Holland.

Attorney Edward P. Honan today received a cablegram from his brother, Dr. James H. Honan, stating that himself and wife are safe at Gravenbage, Holland.

It is probable that he will come to Rensselaer soon after his arrival at New York and It will be interesting to hear him relate the conditions existing in Germany and the excitement among-. American tourists in that country.

New Oases Filed.

Robert M. Hyde is the plaintiff in an action brought against Barkley township. Mr. Hyde Is an architect. He was employed to furnish plans and -specifications for a high school building in Barkley township.*'The price he was to receive was S3OO. He received SIOO and now demands the balance. The complaint sets out that the plans and specifications were actually worth $475 and in a second paragraph that amount is asked.

Based upon the plans furnished by Mr. Hyde bids were advertised for the construction of the building hut tnc figures sumbitted were fpr in excess of the amount which it was expected to spend for the building. The Republican believes that an architect should not be paid for plans and specifications except they keep within the limit of the amount stipulated. In other words an architect should he able to guarantee that the building can be constructed from his plans for the money-available. Plans are of no value h they call for an expense from 50 to 100 per cent more than it Is expected to spend. We believe that this is a sufficient defense against the payment of the Tlaim made by Mr. Hyde.

Another ease filed is that of Charles Collins against Emereald Aldrich, et al, a mechanics’ lien. Collins claims that there is due him $9.50 tor digging a ditch. Attorneys’ fees in the sum of sls are asked.
