Perry Hamilton spent Sunday in Chicago. Miss Tillie Fendig will go to Chicago next week for a short visit with friends.

Alfred Donnelly has two acres of the finest onions on his farm just north of town that have ever been seen in Jasper county. Some samples at this office are indeed beauties. The crop is upon new muck land, and has been grown from the seed. He also has twenty acres of good potatoes. The decision of the supreme court in the election law case operates to allow the present super intendentsof schools to hold over for two years. In some counties the present incumbents have resigned to allow the new board to appoint. It is probable that inasmuch as Mr. Warren would un | doubtedly have been re-elected I had the old bqard acted upon the matter, he will feel entitled to retain the office for another period. The county commissioners, who have been in session all the week, have granted saloon licenses to James Ellis of Remington and Michael Bernicken of Wheatfield. As the Pilot goes to press the application of Geo. Strickfaden of this place has not been decided upon, there being a contest over a petition signed by a majority of the votes of the township asking that he be denied a license.

Waterworks Defeated.

The special election to decide whether Rensselaer should have a system of waterworks was defeated last Tuesday by 62 votes. It was a very quiet election, little interest apparently being manifested in the result. Those who voted against the proposition claim that the improvement is needed only by a portion of the town, that it would not be self sustaining; that the town is already as heavily taxed as prudence should allow; that further taxation would be burdensome to many and prevent the investment of capital here; that a new school building is a necessity of the near future and will increase the rate of taxation; and that some one was figuring to get a fat contract. However valid reasons are, they seemed sufficient to majority of the voters, and the proposition has been rejected for the present. It is probably because so little time was given for the discussion of the matter and so little definite information known as to the income from consumers and the cost of operating. When private enterprise proposed to establish a telephone system, the promoters carefully canvassed the town and secured the signatures of sufficent patrons to guarantee a financial success, would not such a course be feasible in determining the probable income from the waterworks. Would not a private corporation begin in that way if given a franchise for waterworks? Is that not the proper course to pursue now, or whenever this question is to be again acted upon? The voting upon this question Tuesday was the direct application of the “referendum system." The chief objection, that of expense, being one that could be largely obviated, and popular voice on various questions taken at a trivial expense. The death of Mr. James Jenkins. who resided on the Edward Bruce farm two and one-half miles southeast of town, was reported this morning as occurring at 5 o'clock.

Catholic lawn Fete

The lawn fetes given last night and to-night in the grounds of the Catholic church have proved a grand success. The college band rendered some splendid numbers, and the illuminations were beautiful. The proceeds are to assist in putting an iron fence around the Catholic cemetery, which is being greatly improved.
