N. J. YODER ROBBED IN THE “BIG CITY”

Former Mt. Ayr Man Claims to Have Been Tapped on the Bean and to Have Lost 8280. The Chicago Herald of Thursday told of the robbery of a Rensselaer farmer who gave the name off “N. J. Goder.” Evidently it should have been N. J. Yoder, the wdllknown Noah Yoder, who for a number of years lived near Mt. Ayr, and who has been before the public to some extent for several years. Recently Noah and his (Wife were legally separated after several years of unh’armonious association. Yoder was here some last week and informed his attorney, J. A. Dunlap, that he was going to Chicago on some business. Mr. Dunlap advised him not to go, but evidently Noah did not heed. The Herald article says that “'Goder” was trying to engage a room at 632 North Clark street. The place Is owned by James Korsyk and his wife, Josie. Yoder said they were the only persons in view when he was assaulted and they were placed under arrest. Yoder wears the garb of *the Omishmat. and his fringe of spinach Indicates that he is from the tall grass and fruit for the hold-up men. Just what Noah’s business in Chicago was we have no idea, but it is tolerably sure that he had better confine his transactions to the country towns in the future.

GENUINE PRESCRIPTION FOR ALL RHEUMATISM

Satisfaction Guaranteed or Money Back, Says B. F. Fendig. H Rheuma, the wonderful prescription for rheumatism sold by B. F. Fendig and all druggists, does not cure any purchaser, the druggist will return your money without any red tape. Rheumatism is a dangerous disease; because of its shifting nature it often strikes the heart and proves fatal. Any one with even a taint of rheumatism ought to drive it out as soon as possible. Rheumatism is caused by sluggish, worn-out or over-worked kidneys, which become clogged and fail to eliminate the impurities from the system. Rheuma acts promptly and directly upon the kidneys; It cleanses them; it absolutely renovates and leaves them In perfect condition, able to do work nature intended they should do. 50 cents a bottle.

(Now we are selling all $2.00, $2.50, $3.00 hats at 95c. See window. WIM. TRAUB.

KONOVSKY FORCED TO SURRENDER AUTO

Andrew Mcliwrath Secured Reo Oa Replevin Suit Tried in Jasper i Circuit Court. A 1 Konovsky, the DaMotte saloonkeeper, who purchased one of the cars sold at DeMotte last fall, lost the car Thursday when an- action In replevin started last fall by Andrew Mclrwrath, of Chicago, was tried in Rensselaer. The car was 'a Reo and was probably (worth from SI,OOO to $1,200. Konovsky, according to the defensive testimony, paid SSOO for it and after he had had it a short time resold it for the same amount to a man in Hammond, who testified to the same 'thing. Later the oar was resold to Konovsky. Then the detectives began their work and recovered several cars that had been sold through the Andrew Granger agency at DelMotte. Several cans were released without protest but Konovsky refused to let his oar go Without a legal battle. The case was tried before a jury and the evidence showed quite conclusively that the car was the property of (MdlWrath, who even had the key that unlocked the tool chest and was able to give a very minute description of the car, although he had not seen it, he said, since it was stolen from him alst July.

EXPLOITS OF ELAINE TO BE RUN AS SERIAL

Republican Will Print the Story Simultaneously With Its Presentation at The Princess. ' The first installment of the “Exploits of Elaine” will appear as a continued story in The Evening Republican of tomorrow. Another installment will appear a few days later arid thereafter it will appear each week, just before its presentation in episodes at The Princess theatre. The serial .photoplays have become very popular and have been run in the big city papers for several months and presented in city playhouses. Horton Brothers propose to have The Princess fully up to the standard of the -city picture theatres and have arranged to have The Republican print this charming story. The first chapters which will appear Saturday have been circulated about the city 'and country, but probably many did not read them because they did not think they could get the balance of the story, but now it will be printed in The Evening Republican and also The Semi-Weekly Republican and it will prove very interesting to read the story and to see it enacted.
