BRIEF LOCAL HAPPENINGS

FIIDXT Frank Kelley, now of Chicago is visiting relatives here for a few . days. Tom Thornton, of the soldier’s home, at Lafayette, is spending part of a 30 days furlough here. | Born, this Friday, March 9, to Mr. and Mrs. Bert Amsler, 3 miles northwest of town, a son. Mrs. Stott Grant of west of town, is dangerously sick with a stomach and kidney trouble. Miss Susie Wilgas, who has spent the winter with her cousin, j Mrs. S. P. Thompson, returned to Lafayette tlii-» afternoon. March 7th, William A. Shindler ! age 21, residence Newton county, ; occupation farmer, Ist marriage. To Gertrude Keeney, age 21, residence Jasper county, Ist marriage. Miss Laurel Biggs, the millinery : trimmer, returned home today from . three week’s stay in Indianapolis, studing styles. She will be employed this season at Warren, Ind., the same as last year.

J. N. Gunyon, who worked Uncle Bill Baker’s farm north of town, last year, and had any amount of bad luck, from fire and sickness, has now moved to the W. AV. Wishard farm, near Parr, Emory Garriott succeeds him ori the Baker place. —— Christie Vick is taking out a partition irom the rear of his busin<Mw room, and will utilize the ad-. <’ - : *nal space thus obtained for a s drink emporium, or empty-

I you pour um, something. If Christie isn’t watched he will be developing into a whole department store one of these days. The conntyjail is now empty of prisoners today lor the first time since Dec. 27th. John G. Moritz, the ex-saloon keeper of Kersey, being the last to go out. He has been in 57 days in all, about 37 of which was that much longer than he would have been in had he not taken an appeal irom the old sentence pending against him, and which appeal he finally dismissed, but the time he stayed in before he did so did not counton his sentence. Crown Point Star: Dr. Salisbury, wife and daughter, and Mrs. J. W. Ott will leave here next Sunday and be joined at Kouts by Horace Marble and Mis. Berenice Clark, I for a southern trip. They wiH go I through to New Orleans where they will stay several days and then return to the Marble strawI berry plantation in Alabama. Mrs. Ott will be absent two weeks and the balance of the paity will remain away a month. Mayor Ellis and Fire Chief Montgomery visited both Lafayette and i Frankfort on their trip in the interests of the fire department. [They examined some good hose wagons at both places, and the prices of which are about $250. They also made some enquiries about the prices of Babcock ex- ■ tinguishers, (no ulterior scheme against the editor of the Democrat in this) and will recommend the purchase of one or two. It has bean a good while since much has been done to improve or fire appa ratus, and no doubt the people will approve some judicious expenditures along that line now.

A paper from Little Falls, Minn, shows that our former townsman 4 M. A. Churchill, now of near Randall, Minn., stands to strike it rich before many months, and has, in fact, already made one pretty good strike. It seems that there are great prospects of big iron ore deposits being developed around Randall, and if they pan out as expected, some of Marion’s land will be right in the midst. A man named Freeman, who has had lots of experience in iron milling, has bought

large tracts around there and will begin extensive prospecting drilling. at once. Marion sold him a part of his land. It was a piece he bought a shor t ti me before for SBOO and now be sells half of it for sl,- ; 500, and keeps the other half, himI self. W. H. Blodgitt, the well known staft (pr stuff) correspondent of the Indianapolis News gives the editor of this paper an ugly and underhanded dig in Thursday evening’s News, in revenge no doubt for the> deserved roast he was given in this paper a few weeks ago, for his letter from .Monticello, in defence of Tom McCoy. Billy is a brilliant fellow but he is also an ungrateful little cuss, with any length of memory for anything he considers an injury, and none at all for favors shown. He is also as twv-faced as old Nick, as per his complete change of front in his attitude towards Tom McCoy, whom he always ever since the failure raked up hill and down, until the Monticello episode, when he turned clear around. The flop was so great, in fact, as to strongly suggest the idea that he had been waiting to be “seen” and had “been saw.”

SATURDAY. Frank and Lewis Stover are in Lafayette today on business. Miss True George went to Chicago today for a short visit. Mrs. Nancy Balee, of Chicago, is visiting her father, Larkin Potts, for a few days. Mrs. Bert Goff and baby returned today from a few days’ visit at Wheatfield. .' Miss Bess Keaton returned from Wheatfield today where she has spent the week visiting. Mrs. W. C. Criswell and little children went to Chicago this morning for a two wee as’ visit with relatives. Mrs. C. M. Clay and son Edward of Streeter, 111., arrived here today, for a week’s visit with her brother Noah Zigler and family. Dr. F. A. Turfler went to Chicago this morning to be present at the operation in a hospital there of a patient of his from Monticello. Attorneys Reynolds and Sellers of Monticello and Cummings, of Kentland, were looking after matters in the circuit court here today. Os Ritchey Jr., has moved on to Joe Larsh’s farm west of town, while Ben . Smith, who worked it last year has moved back to town. Mt Ayr again has a newspaper, the Mt Ayr Pilot. Ashby, Sigler & Merry are the publishers. It is printed in the office of the Goodland Plaindealer. J. M. Burns, who has been visiting his brother, Billy, and trying to do a little business in Arkansas real estate, started for his home in Kingman, Kans., this morning. Alfred Randall, nearly 75, and Mary Fisher, far past 60, were refused a marriage license in Fowler, on protest of relatives. Randall had been married three times before. and Mrs. Fisher has had five husbands, that she can remember.

Stone roads are the best. Judge Thompson was taking quite a drive over in Newton county a day or two ago. and wherever he struck the stone roads they were hard and smooth ahd the team could trot right along, while the mud roads brought them down to a slow walk, and the gravel was only a few degrees better. The new C. & I. E. railroad, via Wheatfield and Medaryville, is to cost <25,000,000 according to statements just published, and work on its construction is to begin in April next. A franchise for the road to enter Indianapolis is now before the council in that city. It provides that the road must enter the city on elevated tracks. | Monticello people tried to I blanket the saloons there.but failed. .That place is still under town I government, and the whole town- ' ship bad to remonstrate. Ontside the town there was a majority against the saloons, but in the town itself the supposed anti-saloon people 'did nt>t line up when the time came. In Morocco the result , has been right the other way, and the remonstrance won there.

The present spell of Weather is a record breaker in one particular. It is the longest completely cloudy spell since govSrniiient weather records have been kept on Rensselaer. Today makes the ninth Cloudy day in succession, and during all that time until today there have been days together when the sun was not seen even once, and nene of them until to day were more.than brief glances obtained Of the orb of day. And today has been very little better. The old Short Order restaurant has again justified its name by changing ownership in short order; being the third change in about a month. The new owner is G. A. Strickfaden, and he has placed Tom Cain a restaurantuer of considerable experience, in charge. W. H. Snow retiring owner will move back into the county if he can rent a farm. His restaurant experience has been pretty disastrous to him, from a financial stand point.

A double ended land deal of considerable local interest that has just been consummated, is the sale by County Treasurers. R. Nichols, of 123 acres of his Barkley farm to Judson A. Adams, who gives in part payment his 80 acre farm in Jordan township. The Nichols land is priced at SIO,OOO and the Adams land at $6,40(1. Mr. Adams who has lived in town for quite a number of years, is moving out to his newly acquired possessions. The Delphi military company is to oe disbanded the first week in April after an existence of five years. It is Company L of the Third regiment, being the same regiment to which the Rensselaer company belongs. Joe Reynolds, formerly of our city has been commanding the company for some time, as First Lieutenant, with the captaincy in prospect. No reason is stated why the company is going out of business.

MONDAY. Omar Day, of Pardue University spent Sunday with his parents here. Herbert Zea is suffering from a tolerably bad case of inflammatory rheumatism. Born, Sunday March 11th, to Mr. and Mrs. John Younglas in the east part of town, a son. Mrs, Harry McGee and daughter Anna went to Columbus, Ind., today for a few days’ visit. I. A. Level returned to Wabash today, after a business visit several days in Rensselaer. Miss Ella Morris, of Chicago, returned home today, after a visit with her mother, Mrs. Eunice Morris.

Swisher, and wife returned turned to Kewanna today, after a short visit with various relatives in Rensselaer and vicinity. Bev. R. W. Chamberlain returned to Tiffin, Ohio., today having preached for the past two Sundays at the Miss ; onery Baptist church. Leon Lansdurf is able to be out again after a two weeks disablement from a horse kick, but is not yet able to do any work. Thos. C. Thornton returned to the Soldiers Home at Lafayette today, having spent a 30 days’ furlough in Rensselaer and Colfax, Mich. Mrs. Evaline Randle was. called to Reynolds today, by the death of the four year old son ot her daughter Mrs. Belle Josserand, near that place. Our old soldier friend, John Kresler, is now a grandfather for the first time in his life. The cause thereof was a son born this, Monday morning, March 12th, to Mr. and Mrs. Harry Kresler.

R. W. Marshall, the attorney, and son J. H. Marshall left this afternoon for Santa Cruz, California. The former expects to make a pro tracted visit there and may renunn permanently, ifhefindsa sufficiently promising location for himself and family. As for Joe he expects to make his permanent home some place either in California or s.« ue other part of the Pacific coast.

Today with its occasional glimpse of sunshine marks the end of a ten days’ solid stretch of cloudy weather, during which the sun was never seen at all for days together, and when seen, only for momentary glimpses. It was probably a longer solid period of cloudy days than anyone can remember in this locality. A peculiar feature of this spell has been that although the days were all cloudy, many of the nights have been “clear as a bell.” Sunday’s snow-fall of nearly two inches, followed as it was by a cold wave which put the temperature to the bad to the extent of only eight degrees above /ero, was a reminder that we are not entirely out of the woods yet, so far as wigter is concern ed. However, the 21st of March and the spring equinox is now only 10 days away, and then we have to have spring ’ whether or -no and weather or no, for the almanacs all say “spring begins” then. The temperature last night was the lowest since the 17th of February. The excellent production of “East Lynne” is one of the few that have stood the test of time, it is one that enters the heart and brings to one the memories Jof the past°it is like all good things, it will last forever. Nothing that once was ever preserved by the public can never be cast aside. Those who have seen this good old play go the second and even the third time, audience after audience are pleased and sorely if the heart is once satisfied the play has pleased. Who does go to see a circus, why everybody, so they all go to see this celebrated old play of “East Lynne.’ 1 In this performance of the play of “East Lynne” will be cast in the leading role the polished and leading star. Miss Addrene LaPorte, who’s robes of beauty are simplv elegant and beautiful. Tliw-prwiuctioMjwill.be at the Ellis Opera House on Tuesday evening, March, 13th.

The Monon’s Seed Corn Special.

Announcement was made yester day that the Monon Railroad will run a “Seed Corn Special” over itsdivisions in Indiana during the last week in March. The train will b& manned by Purdue University professors, officials of the Indiana Cora Growers Association and the Indiana Grain Dealers Association. The schedule will be made public this week. This is the second seed corn train ever run in Indiana. As the result of the efforts of L. W. Henley, editor of The Farm Star, a special was run over the various divisions of the Lake Erie & Western Railroads during the closing week of December. The innovation was such a success that several other roads in the State immediately took up the question of aiding in this work of agricultural education. The Star has been requested to assist in giving publicity to this movement. The Monon train will be specially equipped for this work. The let’ ture coaches w ill contain platforms for the speakers, who will be supplied with charts and figures of practical value. Corn planting seasou is almost at hand and it is figured that the advice, coming so close upon the time for action, will be the means of securing better seed, in the section to be traversed. The general plan adopted by thefirst corn special will be followed. Short stops will be made at all the leading grai n centers. The farmers assembled will be invited into the coaches, and only; points of the most practical nature will be pre* sented. That Kensselaer will be one of the places where stops will be made can be confidently predicted.
