If you want a new Coat, Suit or j hat, why, then, don’t fail to attend our Opening. Same date as the Horse Fair. —Rowles & Parker. H. J. Bartoo, in writing from Tacoma, Wash., to renew his subscription to The Democrat, sends his regards to all old friends in this vicinity. siMann Spitler was down from ifhayer on business over Saturday. He ownes a big farm in Alabama which he bought about a year ago, and expects to go down there and spend the winter. Mrs. Jesse Eldridge 6f Geddes, S. Dakl, arrived a few days ago to visit relatives and friends. Mrs. Eldridge has been broken in health lately and thinks probably the climate here will help restore her. The first gun of the campaign in Rensselaer is to be fired tonight, when Senator Clapp of Minnesota, an “insurgent,’ will tell our friends, the enemy, what they must do to be saved. The speaking will be in the opera house. Mr. an Mrs. Will Timmons of Longmont. Colo., have been the guests of her mother, .Mrs. Mary Parker. (>n Saturday, accompanied by Miss Blanche Parker, they went to Peru for a visit before returning to their western home.—Francesville Tribune. Charles Spriggs of Oklahoma City stopped off in Rensselaer Friday evening for a few days visit with relatives and friends. He was on his way home from a visit with his folks in Michigan. All the Jasper county contingent in Oklahoma City are prospering, he says. During the heavy electrical storm on Monday night of last week thirteen sheep belonging to T. L. Smith and grazing in his pasture in Gillam township, were struck and killed by lightning. The animals were insured in one of Ed A. Hite’s companies and the loss was adjusted Monday. B. Forsythe writes the Democrat from Oxford and says he had a big sale there Saturday afternoon and evening. It rained in the forenoon. Twelve clerks could not wait on all the people. The ordinance requiring pay for transient stores or closing out sales was a dead letter, he says. « Announcements were received by Rensselaer friends of the coming marriage of Fred King, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. King, of the north part of town, on Oct. 4 to Miss Nell Denzle, of Warsaw, at which place the wedding will take place. Fred is employed in the furniture business at that place. Mr. and Mrs. McGinnis of Westville, Laporte county, visited last week a few days with their son Frank north of town. Mr. McGinnis was a member'of the “87th” and attended the reunion while here. Their daughter Mrs. Morris, of Chandler, Okla., who was also visiting here, accompanied them home Saturday. Fred Phillips, was agreeably surprised Saturday {it being near his 44th birthday anniversary) when about fifty invited gentlemen friends gathered at his home at the dinner hour. He was presented with a beautiful chair as a remembrance of the occasion. All departed soon after dinner in their autos, and reported an elegant time. In renewing his subscription for another year T. F. Clark of Battle Ground says, “Enclosed find $1.50 on subscription to your much valued paper; we can’t get along without it, as it is like a letter from home. Mrs. Clark always gets it first. If she can she will gp to the office after it so to get it first. Yours for a good honest paper.—T. F. Clark.” Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Nelson and two children, of Colrain, Minn., and Mrs. Nelson’s sister, Mrs. McCondel, of West Duluth, . Mtinn., visited last week with the family of John Guss of near Virgie. They returned home Sunday, being accompanied as far as Chicago by Mr. and Mrs. Guss. Mr. Nelson is car foreman of the D. Sc. M. Northern R. R. at Coltain. They were much taken up with this section of the country. The bakers use the Home Grocery’s celebrated A. & K. flour, which is surely a strong recommend. Every sack fully guaranteed, at only $1.50 a sack. Subscribe for The Democrat.
