Miss Nellie Eck, of near Goodland, Miss Emma Myers, 6f near Foresman, took the 9:55 train here today for Valparaiso, to enter the normal school. “Melville D.

Miss Elizabeth French went to Roseville, 111., today, to teach the 7th and Bth years of the Roseville schools. The vacancy occurred by the resignation of the teacher.

Mrs. Ross Grant returned to South Bend today, after a visit of three weeks with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. Q. Alter, and other relatives here.

J. D. Allman and wife and Mrs. C. H. Peck and daughter Ada, of Remington, went to Chicago via Rensselaer today, to witness Ben Hur.

Mr, and Mrs. P. H. Haliiganand C. E. Lavaron, of Dunkirk, Ind., came today for a week’s visit with the former's father, Patrick Halligan, northeast of town. C. E. Henderson, of Cleveland. Ohio, has been stopping here for a few days. He is the agent for the White automobile, a SI,OOO machine, and may make-a sale in Rensselaer, He is an old schoolmate of Landlord Slagle, of the Makeever House. Renicker Brothers have sold the blacksmithing branch of their business, in the Ike Glazebrook shop on Front street, to Isaac Brubaker, of Parr, who will move to town next week and take personal charge of the business. The Rensselaer high school team defeated the Remington town fobt ball team Saturday by a score of 6to 5. The Remington team was much heavier and it was a hard tussel for the high school youngsters. Perry Gwin made the touch down and Rue Parcels kicked goal.

The November term of the circuit court convened, at 2 p. m., today. The first case, and which is in hearing, is the street improvement injunction case, from Remington. Judge Ross, of Logansport, general attorney for the Pennsylvania Company, is representing the railroad. R 1 T. Newman went to Rochester Sunday, to join his family who preoeded him there a few days. Mr. Newman has bought a favorable location in Rochester and expects to ereot a good feed and hitch barn thereon. It seems an exoellent opening for such an institution there.

Dr. and Mrs. A, L. Berkley went to Chicago this morning, where the Dr. will again have his injured hand examined.

Gov. Durbin may commute the life sentence of Smith Jones, aged 13, to a sentenoe to the Plainfield reformatory until he is 21. The boy killed a companion near Booneville, Warrick county, with a knife. He was sent to prison for life, The governor had a talk with the boy the other day at Miohigan City.

For life insnranoe go to Bbuneb & Randle.

The state prison officials have received Buck Wheeler from Warwick county. He is under sentence of death for the murder of his son-in-law whom he shot and stabbed. It is a co-incidence that Wheeler is from the same county as Joseph D. Keith and that both men are under sentence of death. Wheeler is the third man now in the prison awaiting execution under the direction of the new warden, James D. Reid.

Roes Grant, who came over from South Bend last week t''visit his mother, Mrs. Mattie Grant, returned home this morning. He bore instructions here from the management of the South Bend athletic foot ball team to negotiate for a game with Rensselaer. The South Bend team is especially strong this year, containing several ex- college stars, among them the much talked of long distance punter, Pat O’Dea. Rensselaer has no disposition to steer clear of South Bend, but has its dates full until Thanksgiving, and if the team of that town will consider a post season game, they will find Manager Wright ready to select the date. Editor Gorrel of the North Judson News is likely to soon succeed Hicks as a weather prophet, judging by the following effort from his paper. “We have taken a toenail from the hind foot of a prarie chicken, the wh ; fi end of a goosebone and a corn shuck and made a horoscope. By easting it we find the coming winter will be a cold one—unless our casting is wrong. But of one thing we are certain: December will be colder than June and January will cut more ice than July. That is about as near as any weather prophet can get and preserve his reputation.” /

There are always two meteoric showers of considerable magnitude in November Ti.e first display of “shooting Btars’ will be due soon after midnight November 16th. These meteors are called Leonids, because they radiate from the constellation of Leo. At midnight Leo will be in the east about two hours high. As there will be no moon to interefere, the display will have full effect. The second shower will be due November 27th, These are fragments of Biela comet, and are therefore called Bielids. They will radiate from the constellation of andromeda, but on account of the presence of a full moon, the display will be very weak.

STEADY-STRENGTH-SLEEP.

These Are Three Words to Conjure With —They are Closely Connected With Dr, A. W. Chase’s Nerve Pills to Save a Rensselaer Citizen. Steady nerves—refreshing sleep—renewed strength—these are a trio that practically control the enjoyment of fife—they are the keystone of the arch perfecting manhood and womanhood to the fulness of fife. Mr. W. H. Rhoades of 277 McCoy Ave., Rensselaer, Ind., says:—“l can highly recommend Dr. A. W. Chase’s Nerve Pills as a reliable safe and sure nerve tonic—one that will and does give to the nerves steadiness and quiet—gives to the restless sleep at night and to the system strength. This opinion is based on a trialin a severe case in our family. I am very much gratified at the line results obtained and glad that A. F, Long, druggist called my attention to the Nerve Pills.'’ I)r; A. W. Chase’s Nerve Pills are sold at 50c a box at dealers or Dr. A. W. Chase Medicine Co., Buffalo, N. Y.
