Failure of the St. Phillips baseball club of Chicago to put in an appearance Sunday, the game to have been played between St. Joe and the Chicago club had to be called off. A couple of the college teams played instead. John Gorman of Leßoy, Minn., who was called here recently by the sickness and death of his mother, Mrs. Maurice Gorman, of Jordan tp., remained for a short visit with old friends but will return home this week. He has been in the northwest about twenty years. Quite a large number of Rensselaer people accepted the invitation of W. L. Gumm, the Remington hardware merchant, and visited his beautiful peony field at Mr. Gumm’s fine home in the southeast part of Remington. This is probably one of the largest, if not the largest peony field in Indiana, and it presents a beautiful appearance at this season of the year.

C. A. Tindall, who had charge of the commercial department of the Rensselaer schools the pasi year, has stored his household goods on the third flour of The Democrat building and left with his wife Friday afternoon for their former home at Shelbvville. Mr. Tindall will teach in an Indijanapolis business college during the summer and wdll then go to Fairbury, 111., where he will teach the next school year at a larger salary, it is said, than he received here. Miss Ethel Dyer, who taught domestic science here for the past two years, is another teacher who will not return next year. She will teach at Carlisle, Sullivan county, a town about one-fourth the size of Rensselaer, but also will receive a larger salary, it is said, than she got here. And These “Democratic Hard Times,” Too. A letter from Rev. R. W. Wood of Griffin, to Ed Melby says, “My lambs sold in Chicago for $10.40 per cwt., and with the wool brought $9 per head. I cleared $1,000.” Pretty good for a farmer-preacher. Rev. Wood has certainly heard the call, “Feed thy lambs.” He is a live w r ire on the farm. —Momence Progress.
