Rollin Stewart of Hanging Grove township returned home Wednesday from near Lafayette, where he had been visiting his wife’s people, Mr. and Mrs.’ Robert S. Drake. He was. accompanied home by Miss Ola Drake, who will spend some time at the Stewart home. The mass meeting under the auspices of the Knights of Columbus held at the Gaiety airdome Thursday evening was well attended. The principal address was •made by Dean Stanley Coulter of Purdue, and was a splendid address indeed. Charles Neizer of Ft. Wayne spoke briefly on the work being done by the K. of C. in the various army camps. Howard Clark writes home from Camp Taylor and seems to think that the Jasper county boys who were sent to that place last Saturday will soon be transferred to some other camp, but this is hardly likely, at least for several weeks. There are always rumors current at these camps about troops being transferred, but comparatively few materialize. Well, how are things coming with you? We expect some troubles. If we did not have we would think things were coming too easy. Understand this, the Studebaker farm wagon is the best wagon put upon four wheels; the bigger the load the lighter the draft.

Word was received here a few days ago of the sudden death on last Saturday of Mrs. DeLaney Martin of Cincinnati, Ohio; who has visited here several times and with her husband was quite well known to many people in Rensselaer, Mr. Martin having lived here in his childhood.

Frank Mcllroy of Hammond, one of the five Republican candidates for the nomination for. joint-sena-tor for the counties of Lake, Porter, Jasper and Newton, has withdrawn on account of poor health, and Dr. G.

S. army and likewise withdrew from the race.

The Chicago Tieraid, the second oldest morning paper in the Windy City and the second morning paper to go out of business there during the past two, or three years, has been sold to the Chicago Examiner and ceased publication with the Wednesday issue this week. People unfamiliar with the newspaper business no doubt think the great war that has been raging in Europe for the past four years has been of great benefit to the newspapers, while as a fact there is no line of business in the country that has been hit harder. Print paper, inks, type, metal, labor and ‘every other item of expense entering into the making of a newspaper have advanced from 50 to 100 per cent without any corresponding advance in advertising or subscription rates.

Dr.'H. L. Brown and little daughter were Indianapolis visitors yesterday. Yesterday’s local markets: Corn. $1; oats, 73c; wheat, |2; rye, $2. The prices a year ago were; Corn, $1.48; oats, 67c.

HELPING THE BOYS IN SERVICE

be lost in the heat of the conflict in France, and their religious counselors impress upon them the Importance of returning home morally and physically clean, and to be prepared to enter the Father’s house spiritually clean if they do not survive their part in the world conflict. Visitors to the training camps say that the religious preparations of the boys before their departure is the most impressive thing they see. In one camp a visitor saw twelve welfare workers giving spiritual council to departing soldiers, the boys in khaki going to social buildings for the purpose under the leadership of their officers. While the American public gives freely to the war work fund’s of the Y. M. C. A., Knights of Columbus and other organizations, for the puirposep?of. providing comforts, entertainment and good cheer for the soldiers at home camps and in France, this money also makes it possible to maintain the religious counselors in large numbers to give spiritual as well as moral guidance to the whole fighting fore before it goes “over there” and after it arrives at the trenches.

A NEAR TRAGEDY ENACTED

(Continued from page one)

and, when near the fire engine house, some one called to bin. to watch out, and he saw Marlin with a shot gun in his hands and about to fire at him, in fact he pulled the trigger and the gun snapped but the shell failed to discharge. Crltser then opened fire on Marlin with his revolver and at the same time sought refuge In the fire housa. Marlin fired two shots from the shot gun but neither took effect. Critser then hunted about in the engine house for a shot gun which he thought to be there, but was unable to find it., Ellis Thoma’s, city marshal, was awakened by the shooting and soan appeared on the scene. The two then started in pursuit of Marlin, but the latter had evidently gone home. Near Kellner & Callahan’s office they found a belt containing a number of loaded gun shells which the fugitive had dropped in his flight. Later in the day Marlin was placed under arrest by Thomas and as the latter was taking the prisoner to the jail he remarked that he would ret that —— if it took him thirty years and he had to spend the rest of his life in jail, so Tho-mas. says.

'He was arraigned before Judge Hanley Thursday afternoon and bound over to court under SI,OOO bonds. He is still in jail and ft is understood that he will tak? a change of venue and the case be sent to Newton county for t-Hal at the coming term of court there. As a town marshal was shot and killed in Kentland some twenty-five years ago while trying to do his duty and arrest a citizen who had violated the law, It Is not probable that Marlin will get off very easy before a Newton county jury.
