le Jasper Hepim RENSSELAER, Ind., July 9, 1875. ’

We had a refreshing shower on Tuesday night. Mrs. Cole has our thanks for a nice mess of peas and new potatoes. Mrs. M. C. Babcock has oar thanks for a nice basket of gooseberries. Little boys and doctors should be patient. The green apple season will soon arrive. t -» - -r Fortunately,, Rensselaer is left out in the cold by the shows this season—up to date. A respectable number of the Remington people came over to this place to celebrate last Saturday. Calico is now sold cheaper than ever before in this country ; a good article retailing at 61 cents a yard. Mr. M. F. Chilcote did well for the Michigan City excursion commttee. He sold, a round hundred dollars’ worth of tickets. Hemphill sold forty dozen bottles of pop last Saturday, and could have sold six dozen more if his supply had not given out. The Professor attempted to send up his balloon the other evening, but by some hook or crook the “dratted” thing went down instead of np.

Mart. Warner the bntcher. was the cause of a little ripple of excitement Wednesday, by perambulating the streets in a neatly fitting suit of new clothes. Take this life easy, and don’t be trying to beat the sun up. You may win for a while, but in the long run '’ou aresure to be beaten, and some morning it will rise when you don’t. A Mr. Smith, one of the editors of the Cincinnati Enquirer, gave us ft momentary call the other day. Mr. S. is now making one of his regular annual visits to relatives and friends in this vicinity. Grand closing out sale of Millinery, Fancy Goods and Notions, at Mrs Hemphill’s. Desiring to close out entire stock, will offer special inducements to buyers for the 30 days. Don’t forget to call. The Odd Fellows of the tWd districts composed of Rensselaer, Remington, Kentland, Goodland, Fowler, Brook and Morocco, will hold a grand picnic at Brook Grove, on the 12th day of August, 1875.

Strayed.— From Rensselaer, a dark bay mare, with a very black and heavy maue and tail, small eyes, and very narrow between the eyes. Any person giving information that will lead to her recovery will be properly rewarded. C. B. STEWARD. The Method iris of this place will hold a strawberry and ice cream festival in the Court House, this evening. Admission, free. The services of the KVnsseiaer String Band have been secured. Take your lady and s’our money, and enjoy an hour of unrestrained festivity. The I. D. & C. R. R. Company have given Mr. Hawks., the contractor, until next Monday to resume work on his contract. — If by that time he should fail to go to work, the company will cancel his contract. The company then will relet it to subcontractors, and furnish money to buy provisions, and pay other necessary expenses. The Monticello Constitutionalist says: ‘•Work on the C. &S» A. R. JEL is being pushed very rapidly to Railroad street, on the western limits of Monticello. This is certainly energetic work. More teams will be added to the force next week, and erelong the gradiogwill be completed within the limits of our town. Musicians, all the country over, and almost every man, woman and child throughout the West will read with pleasure of the announcement which comes to us of the virtual re-establishment of the old house of “Root & Cady” as “The Root & Sons Music Co.”

It calls up the strange story of the fortunes of this famous house, reaching far back to 1858, when Geo. F. Root, E Towner Root, and C. M. Cady placed over the door of 67 Clark St., that magic legend, “Root & Cady.” However they rapidly outgrew these quarters, aud in 1865 we find them occupying the finest Music Store in the country, in “The Crosby Opera House,” where the gi eat fire of 1871 swept over them. From this calamity resulted two houses—Geo. F. Root & Sons, and Root & Lewis, which now consolidated with the publishing business of Chandler & Curtiss, becomes “The Root & Sons Music Company, which may justly and proudly claim the successorship to the immense popularity of Root & Cady. Besides this, the firm inherits the very valuable connections tlf the mother house with the European Manufacturers, which enable them to purchase so favorably in the foreign market; and also, the agency for the celebrated Steck Pianos, which won the only gold medal of the Vienna Exposition; and for the famous Standard Organ. Their new location is at No. 156 State St., Chicago, where they have every facility for doing their immense business.

They send UB copies of the following pieces of their new publißition of Sheet Music: “I know a Maiden Fair to See,” by H. R. Palmer; Lenore March, by Oscar Mayo; Normandy Waltz, by C. T. Root} and Prairie Bell Waltz, by F. W. Root; “The Song Messenger,” a very sprightly Musioal Monthly, published by them, and the Albom of the Chicago Musical College, which contains a rare collection of Vocal and instrn. mental Music.

New potatoes are selling at $1.20 per bushel. iv- - | Will not some one please purchase that mowing machine at the Union office. Charley Starr’s ice cream raom was erowded all day Saturday. He did a lively business in that line. Wanted—A gentlemen to edit this paper who can satisfy everyone. To such a man a large salary will be paid. The arrival of a nine pound boy at the residence of Sheriff Daugherty was one of the incidents of last Saturday. The Sheriff pays the 99th anniversary was appropriately observed at his honse. The following is a true copy of a halfcolumn advertisement in the South Bend Union : “Tin whistles for a cent and other goods in proportion at Marvin Cambell’s great wholesale and retail hardware store.’ ’ The proceedings of the Gillam Township Sunday School Union will be found elsewhere in this paper. Read the article .carefully and you will find it to be interesting. Every township in Jasper county shonld have just such an organization. “In nnion there is strength.” Mr. James A. Burnham, Deputy Clerk of the Jasper Circuit Court, has issued two marriage licenses since our last issue. One to George A. Eadus and Abigail Johnson, and the other to William Faris and Helen M. Robb. In this instance, Mr. Burnham informs us, one of the parties attempted to procure a licenes, and at the same time keep the secret from the Clerk,

Professor E. P. Robinson and wife both blind, Will give a concert at the Court House in Rensselaer, Wednesday night, July 14th. Exercises consist of sentimental, patriotic and other pleasing songs, accompanied by the organ. Admission fee 16 cents for adults, and 10 cents for children under ten years of age. For programmejand further particulars see bill. There is to be a grand Sunday school picnic in Micha Sayler’s grove, 2£ miles west of Rensselaer, on the Chicago road, one week from to-morrow, Saturday, July 17th, 1875. The exercises are to consist of two or three short speeches, singing, swinging, croquet playing, etc. All the Sunday schools, and all others in the county, are invited to be present. A general good time is anticipated. Mr. 11. H. Walker, one of the band boys, from Remington, while coming to Rensselaer on the 3d of July, lost a pocket-book containing about sl3 00. The fact was announced to the company by the Marshal of the day, and a Mr. Woodams was the honest geutleman that found and gave it to the owner. Mr. Woodams has the thanks of Mr. Walker, and will long be remembered by him and others as an honest man.

Independance Day in Rensselaer.

On last Saturday morning the people of ltenselaer and vicinitty were reminded at an early hour, by the clan gor of the bells and the the booming of the anvil, that the day appointed for celebrating the 99th anniversary of American Independence had arrived. In a few hou*B thereafter, the people commenced coming in town from all points of the compass, &nd at 10 o’clock every available space Oh the streets and sidewalks were occupiedAtlO;30 the populace, preceded by the speakers of the Day and the Remington Corm t Band, marched to the grove under the command of the Marshal of the Day, Mr. Simon Phillips. After prayer being offered by ReV, S. E. Rogers, and the immortal D eclaration of Independance being read by Captain Edmonds, Colonel Healey introduced the Orator of the day, Rev. Foxworthy, of Monticello, who addressed the assembly during the space of three-quarters of an hour with a very interesting and appropriate speech, after which Rev. C. E. Lambert occupied the stand with a real enthusiastic little speech of fifteen miutes in which he advanced some excellent ideas, which the want of space forbids us to reproduce here. This concluded the exercises at the grove. In the afternoon twenty-five or thirty young men rigged themselves up in Indian style and paraded the streets. They were, to say the least, a motley crew, and elicited no little admiration from the lookers-on.— They were hardly dirty looking enougli for Indians, but the resemblance was very striking. A platform covered with green branches was constructed near Hotel for those who had a weakness for shaking the “light fantastic too.” This was seemingly well patronized as it drew a large portion of the crowd to that vicininity. The display of fireworks at night was not very extensive, but was witnessed by a good many spectators who seemed very much delighted at the sport. Taken as a whole, the celebration exercises were a success in every particular, and the day will long be remembered by our good and patriotic citizens, one of pleasure and enjoyment. All departed for their respective homes, feeling, no doubt that they had paid due deference to that most noble bird—the American Eagle. We must not neglect to say that the day passsed off without any disturbance whatever ; and not a single accident occurred to mar th« peace and happiness of any one.

Address

42w3 Sanpierre, Ind,

A man so drank that be cannot tell his friends he is sober is pretty badly off. <i — I ———«*»—-■ The first number of a new German paper at Crown Point, will be issued to-morrow. Hie well in the corner of the Court House yard was visited by nearly two thousand persons last Saturday. : Several pe reans from Rensselaer, attended Barnum’s show at, Logan sport, yesterday.— Several others attend at Lafayette, to-day. We desire to call attention to the advertisement of R. S. & Z. Dwiggia*. They have $500,000.00 to loan at nine per ' cent, interest, on real estate security, and on lon g time. No insurance required. - Auditor Babcock has a letter from Hon. E. Henderson, Auditor of State, dated the 3d instant., in which he says: “The Board of Equalization leaves appraisement’ ’ (of Jasper county) “as returned by you.” Mr. Babcock, on this advice will begin his duplicate at once. - How sweet is a perfect understand*# between man and wife. He was to smoke cigars when he wanted them, but he was to give her ten cents every time he indulged in one. He kept his word, and every time she got fifty cents ahead he’d borrow it to buy cigars. And so they were happy.

By referring to our legal advertising column it will be noticed that the Board of Commissioners of Jasper county have ordered an election to be held in Newton and Marion townships, on the 21st day of August, 1876, upon, the subject of voting aid to the Indianapolis Delphi & Chicago Railroad Company to the amount of $8,853.00, or $6,880.00 in harion and $1,973.00 in Newton. The following is a report of school No. 1, Newton township, for the month en ding’July 2: Number enrolled, 21; average daily attendance,l3 1-20. Those perfect in attendance, punctuality, deportment and study, were Mary Comiskcy, Lucy Grant, Ulysses Grant, Milton McElfresh, Winona Sayler and Wallace Sayler. The average daily attendance for the term, 13 1-20. Perfect during the term, Winona Sayler.

ELLA DWIGGINS,

The Michigan City Excursion

We are so crowded with other matter, this week, that we are compelled to be brief in our notice of the excursion. On last Monday morning we boarded the train at Remington, with the excursionists, for Michigan City. As announced through posters the train left Remingtonat 6,35 A. M., stopped at Wolcott, Reynolds, and Bradford, where a few more victims were taken aboard, and at Francesville about sixty more, mostly from Rensselaer, distributed themselves among the seven coaches, which by this time were overflowing, a great many not being able to find seats. The committee having the excursion in charge did all in their power to make all comfortable, Jiut the cars were so rammed, jammed and crammed that it was utterly impossible to do much in that line. We arrived in Michigan City, at 10 ; 30, at which time all repaired to the prison to have a sight at the workings therein. After that the crowd scattered promiscuously ‘over thtf "city excurting on their own hook. Nearly all took a ride oil the lake, on the steamer, “Grace Dormer.” and afterward expressed it as being “awful nice.” A great many ascended to the summit of “Hoosier Slide,” from which a beautiful view of Michigan City and the lake could be obtained. About six o’clock P. M. the party commenced getting on board the train for the return trip and promptly at eight we rolled out of the city of sand. Some of the boys had got outside of a little too much beer, and were a little noisy at first but soon cooled down. 0 my! didn’t we make the “ice cream lemonade aud pop” “look sick,” though? Ask some of the Rensselaer boys how it was. Arrived at Francesville about 1 o’clock A. M., on Tuesday morning with a tired and sleepy crew , and at Remington about 3 A. M. completely “tuckered out.” In conclusion, the excursion was a decided success, financially and otherwise. None seemed to regret having taken the trip, but all felt fully repaid for the time and money Spent on this occasion*
