The State Ballots are Here.
County Clerk C. C. Warner went to Indianapolis Wednesday morning and brought the state ballots for Jasper county back with him in the evening as is required by law. The law also presumes that the clerk will bring the ballots back on his person, but as there are about 700 pounds ol them it is probable that all the clerk does is to keep a vigilent eye on them. The county ballots are being printed by the Republican and all will be ready for the trustees when they come to the auditor’s office for them on Saturday of next week.
Will Hold Huston Memorial Service.
The service at the First Baptist church Sunday morning will be in the nature of a memorial in honor of Rev. David J. Huston, who died recently at Goodland, and the sermon which Rev. O. E. Miller, the pastor, win preach, will be devoted to a review of the life and works of that old minister, who devoted his entire life to the service of his Master. As Rev. Huston was the pastor of the First Baptist church here for some time and was for many years a resident of this county and a man much admired by all of'his old acquaintances it is probable that many of them will turn out to listen to a review of his life. The hour of the service is 10:45.
A Marriage at High Noon.
The home of Mr. and Mrs. S. R. Nichols was the scene of a marriage at 12 o’clock on Wednesday noon, when his daughter, Miss Bertha Nichols, was married to Mr. James William Bishop, of Peru. Quite a number of relatives and friends attended the wedding which was performed by Dr. H. L. Kindig of the M. E. church. After the ceremony the guests were seated to a splendid wedding dinner and Mr. and Mrs. Bishop left on the 2:01 train for Peru, where he has a furnished home awaiting them. He is the manager at that place of a business college recently established there, and his acquaintance with his bride was made some months ago when he was an instructor and she a student in a business college at Logansport.
Death of Frank Moore.
' Frank Moore, oldest son of William E. Moore, of this city, died suddenly at Indianapolis last Sunday, a stroke of paralysis being the cause of death. He had suffered a previous stroke that affected his speech considerably and his mind to some extent, and when he was here this summer these conditions were readily noticeable. His father, Squire W. E. Moore, his brother, O. A. Moore, and wife, his sister, Mrs. H. E. Parkison, and husband, all went to Indianapolis Tuesday afternoon to attend the funeral, which was to take place at 2 o’clock today. He leaves eight children, four daughters and four sons, all but one of whom are married. He was 60 years of age. His first wife was a daughter of George H. Brown, and a sister of Mrs. R. B. Harris, Mrs. C. W. Coen and . Mrs. Wilts Porter, of this city. He was married a second time, and is survived by his second wife. , '
The Crumpacker Meeting.
The pressure of other matters prevents us from giving an extended account of the republican speech made by Congressman E. D. Crumpacker at the opera house Tuesday evening. The house was crowded, many standing up in the rear part of the building and many being turned away. And although Mr. Crumpacker has made biennial addresses here for the past twelve years he has never delivered an address that so met the approval of his audience and that was so logical throughout andi so thoroughly in touch with the conditions of the times. Mr. Crumpacker talked of the trusts, the tariff and the guarantee of bank deposis and his defense of the republican policies and his criticism of the democratic standpoint was so backed up by sound argument that the proof was conclusive. In concluding his speech he spoke briefly of the situation in Indiana, saying that he resented the effort of the brewers of the country to dominate the politics of the state and that he believed that there would be many good and sincere democrats who would do the same thing. Prof. Tripodl will be at the library Saturday Oct. 34th, to re-organ-ize his class and orchestra. He will be glad to meet all his old students.

Hurrah for Taft! There were nine politicians and one robin seen in this town Monday. Rev. Smith preached at the Baptist church Sunday and Sunday nig .t. John Borem and son, of Roselawn, are doing some construction work on the Thompson ranch this week. Nathan Eldridge has traded /or the barber shop here and has taken charge of the same. Wanted—By the democra's of this township,,, a competent thinking machine, capable of producing argum-’Lt that will prove that we are having hard times. Much damage has been done in this vicinity recently by the firs set by the Monon engines. Jt is impossib e to control it and in many places hay and standing corn are burning. Several from this town attended the democratic speaking at Fair Oaks Saturday night. They repcried a lively speech and g, two round fight, which ended by the ejection of the visiting member. s The teachers’ institute was held here last Saturday. The next session will be held at Fair Oaks. Future da’e will be determined by the interest and attendance of the pupils and patrons. If we care to secure these meetings for this place we will be com- 1 pelled to show more interest and more of us attend.
It is a rare opportunity that is afforded the people of Rensselaer by the visit to this city of Bishop William A. Quayle,* which has been arranged tor by the ladies’ literary club of this city. And the greatest of all speakers on the American platform today will be here next Monday night, Oct 26th, at the Christian church. These are quite busy times with political speeches, but a diversion from the heat of political differences should be welcomed by persons interested in educational matters and the church should be crowded with people anxious to hear him. Dr. Quayle last appeared in Rensselaer before the graduating class of 1907, and so Relighted was the audience that almost every person pledged themselves that they would never fall to hear him if he came to Rensselaer again. This visit should be of especial interest because there is no organized lecture course here this yesr. It will be worth many times the cost to all hear it "Had dyspepsia or indigestion for years. No appetite, and what I did eat distressed me terribly. Burdock Blood Bitters cured ma’’—J. H. Walker, Sunbury, Ohio.
