JnSjl Good Old Stock is all very well in everything but merchandise. Then the word OLD clogs the wheels of progress, even if the goods be the very best. We find we have some good old stock on our hands. Won’t be here long. It is good stock, though a trifle lagging in step. Look at these Drices: Ellis- & Murray. THE PEOPLE’S PILOT. C HOME , NE#B.

It will probably be news to those formerly acquainted with Joseph Clark, who w r as a recent resident of this place, to learn that he was re-married to his former wife, several weeks ago. The couple had been divorced for some tim,e, but again came to the conclusion that it was easier to live together than apart, and hence the marriage. In another column of this paper will be found the official program of the County Farmers’ Institute, March 9th and 10th. This will be an all “home-made” institute, and hope it may prove a success, as much good is derived from these meetings. Let there be a full attendance.

A meeting was held at the court house on last Monday evening, for the purpose of remonstrating against the entrance of another saloon into our midst, before the next meeting of the board of County Commissioners. Misses Hoyes and Williams have started a first class dress making shop, in front room of Mrs. Hoyes’ dwelling house. They extend their cordial invitation to the town and surrounding vicinity. 37-4 t Collins & Sayler’s flouring mill are doing an extra large amount of work these days. Their increasing trade necessitates night work and of course this is interesting to them. No marriage licenses were issued during the past week. Business in that line is rather dull in the Clerk’s office at present. Farmers’ Institute, March 9tb and 10th.

RENSSELAER IND FRIDAY, MARCH 3, 1894.

The coming entertainment to be given under the auspices of the W. R. C. promises to be a rare treat for the amusement loving people. The feature of the occasion is Major R. H. Hendershot, “the drummer boy of the Rappahannock.” He will have with him the silver drum, presented by Horace Greely, together with numerous medals, etc. General admission 15 cents, reserved seats 25 cents, and children under 12 years, 10 cents. Come out and help a worthy cause.

M. F. Chilcote, of this eity, is said to have senatorial aspirations. No man in this senatorial distiict has done more for the Republican party than this gentleman. The empty honor of running for a seat in the upper chamber of our state legislature will hardly pay him for all the service he has given his party these many years. Mr. Chilcote should have been rewarded when his party was in power, when it was able to do something for him.

A. McCoy & Co. are now prepared to make farm loans at 6i to 7 per cent, depending on the amount desired, with commissions as low as are quoted elsewhere.

Will cheerfully answer all inquiries. 33-4 t Our local department is rather short this week, on account of an unusual rush in our job department, causing us to work day and night in order to satisfy the demands of our patrons. This is, of course, pleasing to us.

The revival meeting now in progress at the Christian church, under the able guidance of Elder J. L. Brady, aro still being conducted with unabated interest. He is greeted nightly by full houses of anxious listeners. As the meeting progresses the interest continues to grow. Much good is being done as is shown by the number of additions to the church, the result of this meeting. At the time of writing there has been thirty-one accessions. This will likely be the last week, although, should the interest continue, the meetings will probably bo continued next week.
