THE PEOPLE’S PILOT, RENSSELAER, IND., THURSDAY. JAN. 16, 1«96
Attempted Child Murder.
Our neighboring village of Brook, had a sensation last Thursday. One resident of the place, named Sim Tollis, became enraged at his seven-month-old babe, because it was fretful and made too much noise, and almost smothered it to death by holding his hand over its mouth. The frightened mother gave the alarm and when the neighbors arrived the poor infant was more dead than alive, and was revived only after strenuous effort; The brutal father was immediately arrested and bound over to the next term of court by the Justice of Iroquois township. He was brought here Thursday night and on Friday Deputy sheriff White took him to the Fowler jail, where he will be confined until the February term of court, .when he will be tried on the grave charge of attempted murder It is said that this is the second exploit of Tollis in this direction —he being charged with the death of one of his infant children sometime ago. In view of the brutality of the act. it would seem that the unatural father should be made to feel the severest penalty of the law.—Kentland Democrat. Tollis, at one tim&, was a resident of Rensselaer, and while here an infant child of his was smothered to death in bed. Tollis was not prosecuted for the deed then, because it was thought to have been done through ignorance.
Farmers Institute.
The annual meeting of the Jasper county Farmers Institute will be held in the court house. February 5 and 6. Evqry farmer that can possibly attend should do so. Able instructors will be present from abroad, those who are successful, practical and educated farmers The subjects to be presented have been selected with reference to our own surroundings. Farming is fast becoming one of the learned professions, so that there is no room for, unscientific and haphazard farming. The man that would succeed on the farm must, not only know the nature and capabilities of the soil he tills, the character and worth of the stock he raises and the grain he plants, but he must know how, when and where to buy and to sell. To acquaint himself with these fundamental principles of successful farming, the farmer must step out from under his own vine and fig tree, must occasionally come from out his own dung-hill and exchange ideas with his fellows; he must, too, occasionally stand the plow in the furrow, hang the hoe on the fence and turn to agricultural books, market reports and Farmers Institutes. The average farmer that governs himself in his work by his own knowledge and experience, is no match at all for his neighbor, who, through agricultural reading and associations, learns of the ways of the successful-and makes proper effort to practice them.
The world is growing old, our soil is wearing, new and noxious weeds are yearly invading our fields, our stock sicken and die, blight and pestilence attack our crops; on every hand the farmer and his farm are violently assailed, so to succeed he must practice the greatest intelligence, vigliance and care. Tne idea that any man can farm, any one can follow the plow and feed the pigs, has about had its day. Of all the callings in life the farmer should be the most variously accomplished person, His work and his dealings bring him in contact with most every branch of science. It is to be hoped that the farmers of Jaspercounty will avail themselves of all the benefits that the coming institute can bring.
A Call to Populists.
In obedience to the order of the State central committee of the Peoples party of Indiana, the voters of said party of Newton county are requested to meet at Brook. Indiana, on Saturday, Jan 25th, 1896, at 1 o’clock p. m., to elect delegates to the congressional meeting to be held at Goodland, Jan. 28th. 1896, and transact such other business as may come before the meeting. J. U. Wildasin, Chairman. Piles of people have piles, but DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve will cure them. When promptly applied it cures scalds and burns without the slightest pain. Long, Druggist. Grade, the eleven year old daughter of Frank Kenton, was taken recently with a very malignant form of diphtheria, and died Wednesday of this week.

This will include all occupations, the invitation being not to farmers alone; ministers, lawyers, doctors, merchants, tradesmen, laboring people of all kinds, are invited to attend and take part.

WHEATFIELD.
Weather fine, roads good. Hay being moved to market in great quantities. Bert Dunn from Gilliam township was in town Saturday with a fine pair of ponies which he sold at a good price. Many of our citizens are making pilgrimages to the hub now a days, ojj invitation of the grand jury. Ex-commissioner Taber’s article in regard to the building of a new court house at Rensselaer has been carefully read and meets with wide approval here. Notices and programes of the forthcoming farmer’s institute to be held at Rensselaer next month have been received from President Strong, and distributed over town. The program is a good one and doubtless the institute will be in every way a success. Feb. sth and 6th is the date. Our genial postmaster has moved the postoffice into its new quarters on Grove street. It is an improvement in the way of being more commodious. There should be a new walk built to it, however. It is rumored here that the grand jury proposes to enforce “Sunday closing” in this village on all stores, barber shops, butcher shops, etc. Very well gentlemen, but be sure you are as zealous in this direction at home. “What is sauce for the goose is for the gander.” If you begin, be consistent and ‘ tighten up” all over the county.

MEMORIAL RESOLUTIONS.
Whereas: It has pleased God in his infinite wisdom to remove from our midst our beloved sister, Nora Augusta King, after a lingering illness, patiently borne, thus remit ding us that in the midst of life, we are in death. ’Tis but a step from the social circle to the bedside of sorrow and anguish. Death has again entered our circle, broken the chain and removed from our midst one whose membership though brief was beneficial. Therefore Ee it Resolved. That though we know words will not heal the bleeding hearts that mourn her loss, yet we would tender our heartfelt sympathy to these stricken ones and bid them to look to a merciful Father who alone ,can sustain them in this their sad hour of bereavement. Therefore. Resolved, That these resolutions be spread upon the record of the lodge, a copy sent to each of the town papers and to the sister and two brothers. • A. W. Cole, Mattie E. Bowman, Blanche.

Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surface of the system. thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution, and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they offer the Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of Testimonials. Address, F. J.
