Hear Gay Zenola MacLaren At Presbyterian Church Tonight.

Miss Gay Zenola MacLaren will read “Peg-’o-My-Heart” at the Presbyterian church this evening and should be greeted by aw extremely large audience. Last year many heard her read “Daddy Longlegs” and it is quite certain that a more completely satisfied audience was never assembled in this city. Miss MacLaren has charm in every character she portrays and she represents a dozen characters with the grace and effectiveness that many readers do two or three and many critics have paid her the compliment to say that were the lights out her auditors would think the stage occupied by a full complement of actors. The advance sale has been large and as Miss MacLaren has spent a year in lyceum work since her last appearance here those who hear her may expect even a better entertainment than the one given last year. That will not be required, however, as all were delighted on that occasion.

RENSSELAER, INDIANA. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1915.

JEMISON PUZZLE IS FURTHER COMPLICATED

Immigration Agent at Windsor, Canada, Deported Mute Woman and Her Three Children. The Louis Jemison story has another chapter and it is probably not the last. Mrs. Jemison and heir three little children, the oldest not more than four years of age, arrived in Rensselaer Wednesday evening, and Night Officer Critser and Sheriff McColly learned with some difficulty that the immigration agent at Windsor, Canada, had declined to admit them into that country and had deported them to Rensselaer, from whence they had gone last Sunday. Evidently Jemison’s intention was to meet them there and take them across but for pome reason he did not put in an appearance and as she was unable to talk she could not make the officers understand and she was sent back here. The sheriff and nightwatch took the poor woman and her little ones to the Gallagher boarding house and they were kept there over night and it was planned to take them back to Detroit, Mich., • this Thursday afternoon, an officer accompanying them and*to try to get her across the line. She denies that her husband is to meet her, but evidently does this because she fears he will be arrested and returned to the penal farm from which he escaped. The best thing that can happen, however, for the interest of Indiana is for them to get into Canada, otherwise they will be a charge on the community and Jemison a menace to the peace of the state.

STOMACH MISERY QUICKLY VANISHES

Your money back if you want it is the way in which B. F. Fendig, the popular druggist is selling Mi-o-na, the great dyspepsia remedy. This is an unusual plan, but Mi-o-na has so much merit and is almost invariably successful- in relieving all forms of indigestion that he runs but little risk in selling under a guarantee of this kind. Do not be miserable or make your friends miserable with your dyspepsia. Mi-o-na will help you.. If it doesn’t, tell B. F. Fendig that you want your money back and he will cheerfully refund it. A change for the better will be seen from the first few 1 doses of Mi-o-na and its continued use will soon start you on the road to perfect digestion and enjoyment of food. Mi-o-na has been so uniformly successful that every box is sold under a positive guarantee to refund the money if it does not relieve. What fairer proposition could be made B. F. Fendig gives his personal guarantee of “money back if you want it” with every box of Mi-o-na that he sells. A guarantee like this speaks for the merit of the remedy.

WEATHER. Weather. bdaHGenerally fair tonight and tomorrow; cooler tonight north portion.

HEALTH NOTICE.

There is seemingly no more spread ’of the smallpox cases in town, however, if there are any more reports the entire house will be quarantined, because the isolation of the sick persons alone does not seem satisfactory because they do not follow the instructions to the letter. Hereafter the physicians must report the cases to the health officer and that will give us a chance to take care of it a little better. The City Health Officer.

Warren T. Elmore of Remington, was in town this morning.
