Three Rensselaer Weddings.

RANDLE LAGEN. The marriage of Mr. PhilipP. Lagen and Miss Caroline B Randle took place last Saturday evening at the home of the officiating clergyman, Rev. Joseph Cochran. The wedding was private, the only persons present beside the minister and contracting parties being Mrs. Dollie Randle, a sister in law of the bride. The groom is a brother of Fred Lagen, proprietor of the Rensselaer Steam Laundry, and an employe of the laundry. The bride is the youngest daughter of Nelson Randle, and is one of the most handsome and accomplished young ladies of Rensselaer. The Journal joins with their many friends in extending congratulations. GREENE-HILL. Dr. Clarence L Hill, a dentist of Valparaiso, and Miss Jo Eva Greene, of Rensselaer, were married at the residence of the bride’s mother, Mrs. Jane Greene, on West Jackson street, Tuesday evening, in the presence of the immediate family and a few friends, including the father and mother of the groom, who live at Waynesburg. Rev. Clarence D. Royse, pastor of the M. E. church, officiated. A wedding supper followed the ceremony, after which Mr. and Mrs. Hill departed for a wedding trip to Southern Indiana, at the conclusion of which they will make their home at Valparaiso. KOHLEK-WRIGHT. Mr. Gilbert Wright and Miss Marie Kohler, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Kohler, were married at the home of and by Rev. J. A. Cockran, on Cullen street, Tuesday evening at 9 o’clock. The only guests present were Miss Freda Kohler, the sister of the bride. The groom is a Rensselaer blacksmith. Goodland is to have another paper, we understand, which will make the third for that little burg. Frank Davis, of Morocco, will start a democratic paper there in a couple erf weeks to be known as the Newton County Citteen. If there is not some funerals among the newspapers of that town before spring we will miss our guess, and the Herald, the only republican paper in Newton county, will be the journal to publish their obituaries. When the county seat is finally located at Goodland, two papers of opposite politics will be able to live, but until that times comes there is but little hope of keeping afloat without considerable financial backing.
