NO UNCERTAINTY NOW
Jasper County May Xotr Prepair to Pay For Tiro Xetr Court Houses ARCHITECT GRIXDLE OF FORT WA YXE CHOSEX For week’s there have been knowing ones who have said that there would be no court house built in Rensselaer thjs year. They have said the certain influence would be exerted upon the commissioners to induce them to defer the matter until after another election. But if this influence was exerted it must have failed for an architect has been selected and it is understood that as soon as he can prepare the plans and specifications the com-1 missioners will ask for bids, and the work will begin at once. There were undoubtedly very good reasons why the matter was not deferred. It seems evident that if Jasper county is to have a new court house within the next few years this board of commissioners must build it, for no new commissioners could be elected, who were not pledged to forego the doubtful glory of having their names carved on the corner stone of a new edifice. The board was in session T uesday for the special purpose of deciding upon the adoption of plans and the selection of the supervising architect. Out of the numerous list of competitors, some fifteen or twenty, all of whom are reported to have entered a pool and agreed to charge the county five per cent for the plans and service of superintending the work, the board selected Alfred Grindle of Fort Wayne. It is but fair to presume that the unsuccessful competitors will be liberally paid for their trouble in waiting upon the Honorable Board. Should the court house cost but $140,000, as at present proposed, the architect will receive only a paltry S7OOO for his services, but should it reach the more respectable sum of $200,000, as it most probably will, his fee would of course exceed that amount, and he could afford to be more generous with his pooling side partners. Under any cir eumstance the more the building costs the more the architect will receive from the tax payers of Jasper county.
The four-year-old son of Jerome Harmon, whohadan eye badly injured about three weeks ago with a table fork, is reported no better, and it is feared that he may lose the eye. Judge Healy was in Chicago this week, selecting a new line of men’s and ladies’ shoes. His stock is nice and he is selling them at very small profit. Adeline De Walt Reynolds, who was at the opera house Saturday night, is undoubtedly a very earnest seeker for success upon the rostrum, but far from meriting the tolerance of patient public as yet. “No Irish need apply” is not applicable in this case. Since “Shaun Aroon” is nothing else but Irish, we confidently expect all our Irish friends to be present, also their friends, and their friend’s friends.
Mr. and Mrs. William Austin were guests of Warden Charles Harley at the state penitentiary at Michigan City on their recent trip. Mr. Harley, who is from Delphi, is an old acquaintance of the Austins. W. P. McGann in songs and recitations in “Shaun Aroon,” has several of the latest and best to present Monday evening.

Don't get your dates mixed, and above all things, don't miss “Shaun Aroon.” It is a new Irish play— out of the rut of the so called Irish plays—and with the company back of it, can't help but be a success.

Manly Sport of Trap Shooting.
Some of the boys were out trying their skill at breaking targets a few day since. Those that took part and their scores are given below. Each man shooting at twenty-five birds at unknown angles: J. W. King, 22, missed 3. P. Castor, 19, missed 6. Tom Joiner, 15, missed 10. Frank Hinkle, 11, missed 14. Considering the fact that none of the gentlemen have, shot at bluerocks since last fall, they made a remarkable good score.
Judge Healy s shoe store is the place to sand a large variety to select from; the best grades at the lowest prices.
