Mr. C. C. Warner and Miss Marybelle Purcupile were married at the home of the bride’s parents Wednesday evening at 8:30 p. m. The marriage rites were performed by Rev. A. G. Work, pastor of the Presbyterian church. Many beautiful presents were presented them, also an elaborate supper given by relatives of the bride. Miss Grace, oldest daughter of Judge and Mrs. S. P.

Roosevelt of New York, republican oandidate for vice-pres-ident, passed through Rensselaer Wednesday at about 11:45. A stop of five minutes was made here during which he plead with the people who had gathered at the station to trust in Willie and Teddy and they would do the rest. Probably 1500 to 2,000 men, women and children were at the station to get a peep at him. The Rensselaer schools and the town furnished fully 90 per cent, of this crowd, there being very few in from the neighboring townships.
James H. Greeu of Remington, now at Denver, Colo., has our thanks for a copy of the Rocky Mountain News, containing an article on the recent alleged riot at Yictor, Colo. The article is a terrible arraignment of Senator Wolcott.'whom it charges is responsible for the false and exagerated reports sent out . over the country regarding the affair. The News publishes the version given by a correspondent of a Mc-Kinley-Wolcott paper, the Colorado Republican, who was on the trails with the Roosevelt-Wolcott party and it puts an entirely different light on the trouble from that sent broadcast over the country by the Associated press, which the News alleges was induced to send at the instigation of the Roosevelt-Wolcott crowd.
At the regular meeting of the Rensselaer Bryan and Stevenson club at Democratic Headquarters, Wednesday evening, the dub was entertained for more than an hour by a talk by Mr. Langhans, a German traveling man who happened to be in the city. Mr Langhans is a very intelligent, well read gentleman, and he pointed out the dangers that confronted this country if the American people endorsed the McKinley imperialistic policy at the ballot-box this fall. Hi' clearly showed what imperialism and its twin evil meant and what it had done in bis native country, which he hail left many years ago. While Mr. Langhans claimed to be no stump speaker, he stated that the issues were so plain and clear-cut this campaign that any man of ordinary intelligence could talk instructively upon them He was followed by Lee E. Glazebrook of this township who made a very able and instructive address on “political parties,” and showed that it was the duty of every young man to study the principles of the parties and thbn identify himself with the party which in his opinion was best suited to carry out the principles which appealed to his reasoning. The address was in the main non-partisan, and was one which every young man irr Jasper county should have heard.
