Sol Guth, of Washington, 111., was over yesterday on a business trip, looking after his Jaaper county farms. , Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Childers will return tomorrow evening from Lafayette, where they have been for almost two weeks. Wheat has gone up again and the top price is today quoted at 96 cents. To all appearances it will reach the dollar mark again before long. Wisconsin University will play Purdue at Lafayette tomorrow and 85 rooms have been reserved at the Fowi ler hotel for the team and followers. O. K. Rainier made a trip to his farms near Chalmers yesterday and left this«iflorning for Oshkosh, Wi«., where Mrs. Rainier has been visiting their daughter, Mrs. H. L. Barnes. By a mistake that -occurred in this offire it was reported that the CaT3well baby on the Thompson ranch near l Parr had died of diphtheria. This was | not the case, however, the baby’s death resulting from cholera infantum.
George Gay, colored, who held up the night operator at the Earl Park station during August, pleaded guilty to the charge when arraigned before Judge Bc-rry, who sentenced Ihim for a term of from 5 to 14 in the penitentiary. The Teachers' Association will be held in Indianapolis on Oct. 28th, 29tn and 30th. All the teachers in the city schoo.s will attend and it is understood that many of the country schools v/ill also close during the meeting. Mrs. W. S. Parks and son, Lloyd, who are attending the Panama-Pacific exposition, are in Los Angeles now, and in a card received here today, says that they are having a nice trip and are enjoying the fine California weather. They have been gone about five weeks now. «*■ Dr. Johnsoif will leave tomorrow morning for Pierpont, S. Dak., on business and while there will attend to a professional case. Mrs. C. C. Flint, whose husband was formerly an assistant in the treasurer’s office, is suffering from heart trouble and Doctor Johnson has been sent for. Edward Pincsak, of Chicago, who attended St. Joe last year, came yesterday to visit college friends. He is now in the trap drumming business and is making good with picture shows and other forms of entertainment. A report was circulated that F. W. Tobias had sold out his restaurant at the Forest street railroad crossing. This is not the case, howevea*, although there was a man here the first of the week negotiating for the purchase of it. Dr. Turfler left a turnip at the Murray grocery department that measured 23% inches around and weighed at the time it was brought in 8% pounds.. So far we have not been able to scare up an apple that would beat the one raised in White county and whihe weighed 34% ounces, but we challenge the world on turnips. A deal has been completed by which Frank Kresler buys of J. H. Chapman the former Garrison farm in Jordan township, about 7 miles southeast of Rensselaer. The farm consists of 160 acres and the price was SBS per acre. _Mr. Chapman takes Mr. Kresler’s Rensselaer property, the former Barkley property, in on the trade. William Murray, F. M. Haskell and John Robinson have returned from Kokomo, where they attended the democratic barbecue. Incidentally Mr. Murray had his Haynes auto gone over at the Kokomo factory and that may have been their excuse of going there although the barbecue probably held some attraction for them. A letter received from Fred Putts, a graduate of the 1914 class of Rensselaer, and a son of John Putts, who is attending college at Indiana Normal, at Indiana, Pa., states that he is playing in the back field for the football team of that school. In the game of last Saturday his team downed Waynesburg college team by the overwhelming score of 101 to 0. So far Indiana has scored 252 points against their opponents 0. Notwithstanding the fact that it was exceedingly well advertised, only a fair sized crowd attended the R. L. Budd public sale in Union township today. Mr. Budd had several head of good grade Holstein cows and a number of young Duroc Jersey pigs. The cows sold from S6O to SB6, it being generally considered that they went at very reasonable prices. Mr. Budd has been engaged in the dairying business, shipping his cream to Chicago. He had almost a total crop failure this year and this necessitated him selling out. He plans to later engage in the registered Holstein business. CASTOR i A fur niH Children.
