Some Newsy Notes From The Francesville Tribune.

Miss Myrtle Zard has gone to Rensselaer to spend the winter. Mr. and Mrs. William Porter, Harve Robinson and Joseph Fox were at Rensselaer Sunday. J. P. Hammond, assistant cashier of the First National Bank of Rensselaer, is a candidate on the republican ticket for auditor of Jasper county. E. R. Burget went to Indianapolis Monday, where he has engaged himself as a public auditor and accountant. The firm name will be Burdick & Burget, with offices in the State Life building. Several Francesville people witnessed the ball game at Rensselaer, Sunday, in which Oxford was defeated by a score of 2 to 1. Elmer Wilcox, formerly of this place, helped to win the game by a timely hit.

The Francesville ball team went to Reynolds for a game last Sunday. The game only lasted three innings when the visitors left the field because of the umpire’s decisions and a disposition among their opponents not to play fairly.
