SUPPLEMENT.

RENSSELAER, JASPER COUNTY, IND. APRIL 9. 1891.

Still Improving.

A Washington special says: “Mrs. Owen continues to improve in health slowly, but surely. Mr. and Mrs. Owen have both had severe attacks of illness, and both are in an enfeebled condition of health. As soon as Sirs. Owen is strong enough for travel, probably this week, they will go to Old Point Comfort, Va., for a few days and then go to Logansport and on to Mrs. O wen’s olddiome at Logan, la., for a visit and recuperation. Many peOpleTare already making preparations. to attend the World’s Columbian Exposition at Chicago in 1893. This is indicated by the fact that in some parts of the country. “World’s Fair clubs” are being formed with the object of accumulating sufficient funds to defray the traveling and other expenses, of members when they shall attend the Fair. Newspapers received at Exposition .headquarters show that these clubs are increasing rapidly in numbers and that much’interest'is’being taken in them. Speaking in general concerning them, it may be explained that their plan of operation includes small weekly assessments upon the members, fines for delinquencies, and in some cases, the holding of occasional entertainments, festivals etc., the proceeds of which are added to the general fund. In this manner, without feeling the expense, the members expect to accumulate a considerable fund by the summer of 1893, sufficient, perhaps, to defray their expenses to the Fair. One of these clubs in South Carolina deposits its money in the principal bank in the town payable only to a committee of six. It is understood that the money will be drawn out on May 1, 1893, and distributed to the members, each receiving an amount proportionate to his or her contributions.

Wilcox has the highest grade of any pupil in the county, and is consequently entitled to a free scholarship in the Rensselaer High School, for one year. "

HORSE NOTES.

The Rensselaer Stock Farm have sent ten head of their trotters to Delphi, Ind., under charge of A. L. Padgitt, to be worked on the gravel road there until the spring mild dries up here. These are the horses that the Farm expect to campaign this year and it is a very promising lot. To show the growth of the trotting horse interest in the United States, it may be stated that there are stakes opened by the different associations to the value of over 1200,000.00 to be competed for by foals of 1890, and a single colt may win all these stakes. It will thus be seen that the earning capacity of the trotting ;Jiorse is greater than any other animal. The Rensselaer Stock Farm stallion Pluto is entered in the florae Review $15,000 guaranteed purse, and any one of his get of 1891 is eligible to start for this rich purse without paying any entrance money. You never can tell where lightning will strike, and it might happen that this valuable stake might be won by a Rensselaer bred colt. Clothing at Leopold's sells itself, as the prices are low, quality Number One and style superb. Call and investigate.
