Rensselaer banks pay 3 per cent on deposits. A Burnettsville bank advertises to pay 4 per cent if left two or more even months and a Monticello bank pays 5 per cent. “No words can describe her power of keeping from eighteen to twenty characters distinct before an audience.” —Minneapolis Journal. At the Presbyterian church, Thursday evening, Oct. 14th. A brief note from Dr. H. L. Kindig, who is not going to preach this year, states that he will spend the year in trying to get well and may be away from Monticello much of the time. Monticello will hold a corn festival next week. Thursday- Friday and Saturday will be the big days. There will be a masked carnival Friday night. ‘'Miss MacLaren’s rendering of an entire play is nothing short of wonderful.” —Springfield (Mass.) Republican. At Presbyterian church Thursday evening, Oct. 14th. T. M. Callahan is making extensive improvements to his Cullen street property. A basement is being constructed and a heating plant will be installed. A new and larger front porch is being erected also. In The Republican will be found many endorsements of the reading o£ Miss Gay Zenola MacLaren. She has delighted audiences all over the country and has a charm of manner that makes her welcome on each return visit. Mr. and Mrs. George O. Pumphrey came over from Columbia City yesterday for a visit with old friends until Monday or. Tuesday. They will go from here to Hammond and visit there a few days before returning home. Mr. Pumphrey attended his regimental reunion at Logansport Wednesday. Bhere were 27 of the old 99th Indiana there and they had a fine time. Miss Marie Perrigo and Mr. Harry Goslee, who are residents v Monticello, while out riding in an automobile last Sunday evening had an accident that almost resulted fatally to the young lady. The Democrat in describing her injuries says that her teeth were broken and the shattered ends protruded through her lips and cheeks, and her body was cut and bruised. His throat was cut and bleeding. Both had their clothes almost all torn off. Their car had left the road, run through a barbed wire fence and out into a cornfield. Both of the passengers were caught by the wires of the fence. Miss Perrigo is a sister of Mrs. John Ward, of this city.

SAN FRANCISCO IS SHAKEN BY QUAKE

Four Shocks Felt at Berkley—lntensity Registered as “6”—No Damage Reported. San Francisco, Oct. 7.—A well defined earthquake shock was felt, here at 9:26 o'clock tonight. There were two distinct tremors, both sharp enough to sway buildings slightly and rattle doors and windows.! At 9:35 another disturbance, much milder, was experienced. Considerable excitiment- especially to strangers in the city, was caused, but alarm quickly subsided. So far as could be learned no damage was done. Four shocks were felt at Berkley, across the bay, the- first registering at the University of California an intensity of “6”. The big earthquake of 1906 was classed as an “8”.

Miss Mac Laren Will Give Reading Next Thursday Eve.

If you want to hear one of the most delightful readings you have ever heard you should make plans to hear Miss Gay Zenola MacLaren, who will deliver Peg-*o-My-Heart at the Presbyterian church next Thursday evening, Oct. 14th. Her ability was shown here last year when she gave Daddy Longlegs so charmingly. You will find that attending one gs Miss MacLaren’s entertainments is quite as good as seeing the play itself and the price of admission is entirely forgotten in your satisfaction that it was worth all it cost.

For the protection of the lives of the scholars who participate in this violation of the law the ordinance will be enforced. Done this seventh day of October, 1915. CHARLES G. SPITLER, Mayor.

Yorkshire has 12,000 looms weaving khaki. Probably no better entertainment will be heard in Rensselaer the coming winter than Miss Gay MacLaren’s reading from Peg-’o-My-Heart at the Presbyterian church next Thursday evening, Oct. 14th. D. L. Halstead brought to The Republican office Thursday two small clusters of onions, one of white and the other of red. The onions are of good size and will doubtless find a good market. Some of Mr. Halstead’s onions were 4 feet under water during the high water in June but the land is drained by large ditches and the water ran off in 24 hours. Mr. Halstead is new in the onion business. Last year he had planned to raise some but got his seed late. This year’s success is apt to make him a regular in the business. Walter Forbes, who has been head clerk at Merritt’s store for these many years, has’ resigned his position there and taken another with the E. E. Bogan Co., in the Remington plant. Walter is a mighty good man any where and he will be greatly missed from his old place but will likely sftind a better show for advancement with the Bogan Co.- because of their many and various poultry houses. —Remington Press. The bulk of lime used on the island of Martinique is made of a madreporic stone or reef coral which is taken from the bottom of the sea. Queen Victoria’s reputed invention x)f the safety pin has been exploded by the recent discovery on the island of Crete of one supposed to have been made at least 900 years B. C. This gives it the safety first honors. The completion of the Celilo canal, on the Oregon side of the Columbia river, adds Idaho to the list of states having a seaport. It is now possible for sternwheel river vessels to pass from the Pacific ocean to Lewiston, at the head of navigation on the Snake river, a distance of 480 miles. * A gigantic American farm machinery concern is turning out “dreadnough” steam plows at a great rate under contract with the British government. The use of these implements is said to have increased England’s tillable area 20 per cent. . . The word tawdry is derived from St. Audry. In the early middle ages fairs were held in France and England on St. Audrey’s day, and these annual gatherings became noted for the gaudy and worthless jewelry sold at them. Both King George and Kaiser Wilhelm a year ago promised gold cups for the San Francisco yatch races. Lord Richard Plantagenet Nevill, who is six feet two inches tall, has just delivered King George’s trophy and taken pains to call attention to the absence of Wilhelm’s.

WILSON FAVORS BANK EXTENSION

Federal Reserve Board Is Not Disposed to Hurry Consideration to Establish Joint Agencies. Washington, Oct. 7.—Endorsement by President Wilson of the proposal to establish joint agencies of the federal reserve banks in the principal South and Central American republics was transmitted to the federal reserve board today by Secretary McAdoo. This plan was suggested by Mr. McAdoo in his recent report to the president on the best ways in which to continue the work of the PanAmerican financial conference of last May. The reserve board referred to a special committee a letter from the secretary transmitting one from the president. So far the board has not been disposed to hurry consideration of the proposal and the federal advisory council at its last meeting here! took the attitude that it would be better for the board to get the matter of domestic business in the best order before undertaking anything abroad. The ten heirs to the John Watson estate, who had petitioned the court to sell their share of the land in West Point township and apportion the proceeds, and for which purpose M. B. Beard and L. D. Carey were appointed petitioners to sell the real estate, have decided that they prefer to have the land set off to them in its enirety.' A peition to that effect is being prepared and will come into court.—Monticello Journal.

MAY NOT BOLD ANY TOWN ELECTIONS

Legislative Blunder Leaves No Provision For Termination of Present Terms of Office. Officials of incorporated towns in Indiana are liable to continue in office until the present election law is amended, as a result of a blunder made by members of the. Indiana legislature of 1911, when the election law was amended. This became known when E. M. Bailey, town clerk of Hillsboro, appealed to the attorney geheral for a ruling and was informed that, under the law as amended in 1911, no reference is made to the time of holding elections for town officials. 'The legislature es 1905 passed a law fiking the length of the term for town offices and the time to hold town elections. This law was amended by the legislature of 1909. The legislature of v 1911 again 'amended the law and left out all reference to the time of elections. Assistant attorney generals said many appeals have been received from town celrks for a ruling on the law. It was admitted that under the law as it now stands town clerks can not call an election.
