K., 23 Inf., stationed in the Canal Zone, in writing to the Republican says: “It is very hot down here, but there is a fine breeze almost all day and night One does not know what the tropics are unless he visits them. I 'believe one can stand the cold much better than the heat. This is an excelelnt breeding place for malaria, typhoid and yellow fevers. I guess it will be a long time before I get back to Rensselaer, but I am having a wonderful experience, so feel that I am being well repaid for the tjme put in here.”
OLD DEPOT HOTEL BUILDING CATCHES FIRE
The old depot hotel building, a large frame structure occupying the site just north of where the old Monon depot used to stand, caught fire about noon today and was badly damaged before the arrival of the fire company. The 'building, it is believed, caught fire from a spark from a passing locomotive which fell on the roof. The building' was a trwo story structure, and the second story was practically destroyed, but the firemen succeeded in arresting the blaze before it reached the lower rooms. t The building was owned by Arthur Hopkins and was occupied by Ed Booth and family. The loss to both parties will be light. _ - Chief Montgomery and his men no sooner had this fire under control until they were forced to answer another alarm two blocks north. A dwelling house owned by David Yeoman had caught on fire from sparks from the hotel fire. The blaze was 'quickly put to rout with but little damage done. Chief .Montgomery and his men made a nice run and were on the secene within a very short time after the alarm was - - -
Caronor W. J. Wright was called to DeMotte this afternoon to investigate a death there. No particulars of the case have been learned Mr. and Mrs. C. P. Moody, at the present time proprietors of the Makeever hotel, will reire from the hotel business on March 14, and will take up their residence on their farm on Wall street. Jay Stockton, owner of the hotel announces that he has leased the hotel to a prominent Rensselaer citizen, ’who will operate it after March 14.

SQUIRE MOORE, OF BARKLEY, DECIDES RENSSELAER SUIT
Squire John Moore, of Barkley township, decided a case from Rensselaer Wednesday. Jesse Gates had (brought suit against Sam Karnowsky, the hustling junk dqaler, for $13.50, alleged to be the balance due for hauling cinders on the street in front of Karnowsky’s place of business on McKinley avenue. The evidence dis, closed that Sam, who is an enterprising citizen, availed himself of the offer of the city council of free cinders if he would pay for the hauling, and hired Gates to do the hauling for 35 cents per load. When settlement time came around Gates claimed the hauling was worth 50 cents per load and refused to accept a check for the balance due for hauling 37 loads at the contract price, he having already drawn $5 before the work was completed. Gates at the trial introduced expert testimony from other teamsters that the work was worth 50 cents per loiad. Sam introduced witnesses to the contract and the court gave judgment for $7.95, the balance due for the hauling at 35 cents per load, which was paid into court and then applied on the costs of the case.
FIDDLER FANS’ FESTIVAL.
A very unique entertainment was staged at the Armory last night. Some who were present called it a Fiddler Fan’s Festival, others said it was a Musical Bee, but best of all it was christened the Constabulary Ball. As it happened the entire police force was there. In the front row was Sheriff Woodworth, Deputy Sheriff John Robinson, Marshal Ellis Thomas and Nightwatchman John Richards. Over on a box seat sat ex-Sheriff McColly, too. The headliner for the program was Fiddler Frank Erwin, of Lee, Ind. Frank knows a fiddle as good as old man Stradivari himself and can handle one with the skill of Paganinni. The way he played The Arkansas Traveler and Satan’s Phantom made All the local artists situp and register the “some class” smile. He started upon The Sailors Hornpipe. There being no old salts from sea-going vessels present the local aquarian dance, The Dredge-boat Shuffle, was substituted. The Dredgeibot Shuffle was fantastically done by the Bicknell brothers, and for it they received many rounds of applause from all the taxpayers at the balk All went well until one of the violinists announced that he would next execute William Tell. To this Deputy Sheriff Robinson protested, saying that he wanted no acts of violence to mar the good time of the evening. Tell was permitted to live. The next number moved the audience greatly. It fact it’s moving powers were so great that the checkers on the boards at the adjoining checker club started to move. This inspired Morris Maloney and Sam Stevens to „invent the Checker Sashay, which they later introduced to the Late in the evening the happy guests departed for their homes after having wished Shorty Collins, the courteous and jovial custodian of the Armory, many more happy birthdays.—Contributed.
