William Augspuqper made a busi-,. ness trip to Lafayette today. Born, Thursday, Sept. 23d, to Mr. Md Mrs. Ross Ropp, north of town, Robert Sheets and wife and baby have been visiting relatives here since last Saturday. Dr. R. C. Wolcott, of Troy, Ohio, was in the city over night the guest of Dr. E. N. Loy. The Monon will run two more dollar excursions to Chicago, viz. on Oct. 3d and 10th. Mrs. J. K. Davis entertained about fifty ladies at her home on Grace street Thursday afternoon. See the Kingsbury hats, in all the latest shades and styles. C. EARL DUVALL. F. B. Ham went to Matthews, Ind., today, where he has a general store which he visits about once a week. Geo. W. Hopkins and wife went to Indianapolis Tuesday and he returned home today. Mrs. Hopkins stopped off at Frankfort to visit' relatives for a few days. Now is your time to pick out that tailor-made suit as the colorings and styles are great and the fit and tailoring is perfect. C. EARL.. DUVALL. It is quite chilly today, but early risers do not report any frost this morning. The sun has been playing peek-a-boo behind the clouds and would be quite warming if it remained out long enough to get in its work. All former clubbing offers with Chicago daily papers are withdrawn, owing to a raise in price of the dailies. We can still furnish a daily in connection with the Republican, when desired, but not at the old price. Rue Parcells left this morning for Mexico, Mo., to work for his brother, Fred, who' is engaged in the poultry business with his father-in-law. Rue’s ■m absence will leave a big hole in the Wren baseball team, aud as Kevin, the active little third baseman did not come down with Hanks the Wrens are in a very crippled condition today for their game with Kentland.

Mrs. N. S. Bates returned last evening from Chicago, where she has been with her daughter, Miss Alice, since the latter was operated on for appendicitis. Mrs. W. J. Wright, sister of Alice, remained there. Mrs. Bates brings home word that Alice is getting along very nicely, fully as well as could be expeeted. It will be some time, however, before she' can leave the hospital. ~ The gum slot machines at the depot are on the bum to such an extent now’ that only about every third penny brings a return. Formerly the agent was authorized to return pennies to those who failed to get action on them but this arrangement has been canceled and action should be taken to have the machines thrown out of the station upless seme guarantee is given that they will operate honestly.

Roth Bros, will mbve into their fine new butcher shop next week, and the mechanics are now putting on the finishing touches. It will be one of the best butcher shops in the United States when completed, as the enterprising proprietors have spared no expense in putting the latest equipment in it. The Horton building is also completed and the Horton restaurant in the corner opened up. Prank Haskell will occupy the barber shop room and will also move next week. The buildings are a great credit to the city.

H. A. Thompson, brother of Mrs. C. W. Duvall, and who was born and raised in Rensselaer, is now the chief of police of Tulsa, Okla., where C. C. Sigler and family and other Rensselaer people are located. Tulsa is now a city of considerable impor- 1 tance, one of the hustling commercial centers of that hustling young state. Recently Chief Thompson thought he 1 would surprise the .mwnbers ,of his force and tb« day he did this he wgs 1 surprised to flhd that the blue coats

Mrs. Alfred Hoover returned this afternoon from a visit of two weeks with relatives in Indianapolis, Lebanon and other places. Several ladies surprised Mrs. Mary A,. Howe at her home on Weston, street yesterday evening, and a very pleasant evening was spent. When you buy a tailor-made suit that is what you expect to get, and that is what you get when you buy Kahn Tailored suits of me, but no other concern can say that. A perfect fit is guaranteed or no sale. C. EARL DUVALL.

A break in btoe water pipes pn ton street across frojn the of W. R. Lee, has .caused water to inundate half of the street tor almost •a hlofk. It .will .require a great deal of digging to repair it. Miss Bletiche Tullis, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Tullis, was operated on at the Methodist hospital in Indianapolis yesterday for a subacute attack of appendicitis. The operation was entirely successful and she will be able to return home within a short time. Mrs. Elizabeth Kennedy, the aged lady who suffered severe injuries by falling at the home of her daughter, Mrs. G. F. Meyers, Tuesday 1 ; is doing much better than it was at first thought possible. She is resting easily and the chances of her recovery are now very bright. Mrs. Loy Hess, of near Goodland, daughter of Mrs. G. H. Maines, and who was in poor health for some time, is now very much improved and the sickness which it was feared would prove chronic is now almost entirely overcome. She expects to visit her mother and other relatives here shortly.

Thomas Hammond died at his home in Hammond, Tuesday morning, which takes away one of the pioneers who lived to see that city grow from a dozen houses to its present size.

High School Items.

T£e music .clashes have been organ-* had »B®af xhe qnipervision of Mlaa Tranberth. The advanced chorus sjhows a decided improvement over the same classes last year, while the be-* ginning chorus, though not so large in jnpmber, a s its proceeding class, shows gr,sater ability fojc tlje work. Jbe off £sst year’s foot ball team, together with the new candidates, have met and discussed plans for organization. The English classes have been making good progress this year. The Seniors are studying 1 Franklin’s “Autobiography,” and the Freshmen are studying “Silas Marner.” Some of last year’s graduates have visited school this year. Among them were La Vera Lee, Myrtle York, Floyd' Meyers and Blanche Babcock. The Senior History class enjoyed a very interesting discussion upon the all-absorbing topic North Pole. “North Pole” has no longer any claim to its time honored name. It is what Miss Shedd would call a “hackneyed expression.” Two weeks ago a ferocious looking specimen of the animal kingdom, which embodied at one time the chargsterictics of a dippogriff, a kangaroo and a salamander, appeared upon one of the junior desktops (in indelible pencil.) Beneath it was written: “This is a Ram-trans-mag-nif-a-can-bam-dam-a-ality." This served as an incentive for Mr. Bradshaw’s martial instincts, and, can the guilty culprit be found, the usual fine of a quarter will be imposed thereupon. The ’ Juniors have held their first class meeting. They elected as president, Clarence Smith; vice-president, Helen Meader; treasurer, Dale Warner. It is time that the other classes were getting busy along this line.
