Who Is Mike Dalton, Who Had Pockets Picked in Hammond?

The Hammond Times reports a number of victims of “dips” in that city during the merchants’ fall festival last week. A man giving the name of Mike Dalton, of Rensselaer, is reported to have lost s3s* at the Monon station. There is no man of that name 'here, so far as The Republican can find out, and evidently the victim of the pickpockets wanted to keep his identity a secret.

An Up-to-Date Store.

A f> and 10 cent store in a town the size of Rensselaer must not only have a host of articles to retail for not over 10 cents, but must also have a complete line of ovelty goods. It must, in other words, meet the needs of the cominunity. in which it exists. Because of the fact that it is in a small city where everyone knows each other and are neighbors, It should be accommodating and courteous aud take a personal interest in the people with whom it deals. No store better meets these needs than Burchard’s 5 and 10 cent and variety store, located in the J. W. Williams building opposite the court house. This store tries to keep abreast with the times and meet the needs of the community. For this reason you will find from time to time'that they are adding new lines of goods, ready to take good suggestions, and zealous in the fulfillment of tha obligations placed upon it. If you have not visited it recently you should do so and see the vast improvements that are being made.in the makeup Us its stock. Watch this page next week and see something of the recently added articles. Or, better still, call and see for yourself somewhat of the diversified stock it possesses at prices that are worthy of the patronage of ‘the most discriminating buyer.

G. O. P. to Redeem Michigan; Says Republican Correspondent

A business letter received today from Michigan closes by saying: “Hoping that all is well with you and that the G. 0. P. will redeem Indiana as we will redeem Michh. gan, I beg to remain, etc.” Well, you can bet Indiana will be redeemed. Ernest, patriotic democrats, who have always wanted to keep their party free from corruption, are going to turn their backs on the Taggart-Fairbanks crowd and give their disapproval of the conduct of Homer L. Cook. They are going to show their dissatisfaction with the increased tax levy, with the passing of laws to provide new jobs for the gang and with the increase of salaries and the borrowing of money, and Indiana will be redeemed and restored to its former wholesome condition. Thanks for the good wishes, brother, and we will be ready for a hand shake after November 3rd.

Close Call For Monticello Couple Sunday Evening.

William Murdock and Mrs. Molly Teyis, of Monticello, came near passing into glory Sunday evening. It seems that eaeh has a loeal reputation that is more or less unsavory. Murdock rented a livery rig and invited Mrs Tevis to share with him the joys of a moonlight drive. The Journal says that both had been imbibing liquor and that they drove to dark, unfrequented places. They started toward the Tioga luldge but made a wrong turn and were driving alongside the Monon track. The horse made a turn on to the track just as southbound train No. 31, which passes through Rensselaer at 7:41, came along and broke up their tetea-tete. The horse was instantly killed, the buggy was badly smashed but neither man nor woman was hurt beyond a few bruises. Dr. Ooodwin examined the couflle and found both intoxicated and the woman was taken to her home and the man placed under arrest on a plain drunk charge. The moral to this is: If you are going to get run over by a train get drunk first.
