THE PEOPLE’S PILOT, RENSSELAER, IND., THURSDAY. FEB. 6, 1896.

A farmers institute was held at Brook Monday and Tuesday. Bert King went to Hammond last week to take charge of a telegraph office. Mrs. J. W. Douthitt visited her mother, Mrs. Amanda Fess, at Medaryville last week. Merchants have been busy for a couple of weeks making their annual invoice of stock. Did the ground hog discover his shadow Sunday? The future weather developments will determine. A. D. Washburn of Fair Oaks was at Fowler last Thursday looking after his farm near that place. Mrs. Charles Hershman has returned from Medaryville, where she has been visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frederick. The sportsmen of northern Indiana have concluded to stock this part of the state with Mongolian pheasants, a bird about the size of a bantam, the flesh of which is said to be equal to the native pheasant.—Medaryville Advertiser. The Christian church people have decided to retain Rev. Brady of Rensselaer, as pastor, provided the amount of his salary can be guaranteed.—Fowler corresponpent to the Oxford Tribune. Miss Grace Caldwell was over from Mt. Ayr last Thursday and Friday visiting her friends, the Misses Bertha Nowels and Glenn Porter.

The Roselawn News, an amateurish hand-me-down sheet “struck-off” at Monon, is to be purchased by a local stock company in order to abate’ the present libel on the enterprise of the town. During the damp evenings the little folks have had much amusement being shocked at the corner of Sixth and VanBuren streets. The electric light wire passing through a tree touched a branch charged the tree with the electrical current which in turn was drawn off by forming a line and touching the tree. The shock was greater the more there were in the line.—Fowler Leader. Married, Sunday evening, Jan, 25th, at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Pickering, by the Rev. Grant A. Waller, their daughter Nettie to Mr. E. Worth Kolb. The wedding was a very quiet affair none but the immediate family of the contracting parties being present. Mr. and Mrs.Kolb are not decided whether they will locate at this place or go elsewhere. Frank Foltz and wife were down from Rensselaer to witness the nuptials. Mrs. Foltz, who is a sister of the groom, will visit a week or two with her parents.—Oxford Tribune. A certain good looking young lady from the country walked into Mr. Laughlin’s grocery the other day and after selecting some choice French candies, asked what it was worth. “Seven kisses per pound,” replied Rollie, the polite son of the proprietor. The young lady was embarrassed for a moment and then replied that she would take five pounds. Then the candy was weighed, nicely wrapped up, and handed to the fair purchaser, who received it with a smile and said, “Send the bill to my grand-mother—she will settle it.”—Talbot correspondence Oxford Tribune. The “All men’s” banquet given by the made members of the Christian church at Matthews hall Thursday evening netted 845. Of course the boys compounded the angel food, the chocolate and cream cake all by themselves, and the plans and specifications of the mince, apple and pumpkin pies were solely manipulated by their own deft fingers, while their wives, mothers, sisters and sweethearts sat with their feet on the window sill enjoying their cigars. Butthen everything was good just the same, and was partaken of with such hearty zest that nothing remained after the feast but a few broken remnants. —Fowler correspondent Oxford Tribune,

There are ho new developements in the court house matter so far as we are able to learn. It is said that Messrs. Faris & Martindale could not agree among themselves on a plan for the proposed new structure and have decided to let the matter rest until Commissioner Jones is able to be present. This is a good place to drop the matter, gentleman, and you will do well to take advantage of it.— Remington Press. Wednesday afternoon of last week Miss Josie Palin was married to Mr. Charles Henderson, in Milford, 111. The happy couple arrived here last Monday and in the evening a supper wns served at the residence of Mr. George Young to a large number of invited guests. Charles, who is well and favorably known in this town, together with his young wife, have moved on the Robinson farm east of town. We wish them a most happy and prosperous journey through life.—Medaryville Advertiser.

farmers’ Institute.

The White County Farmers' Institute which was held at Wolcott Monday and Tuesday of this week was one of special interest and benefit to those in attendance, and a large company were present at all the sessions. The program was carried out in full and the papers read and speeches made were of the highest order and of great benefit to the farmer, At the close of the meeting officers were elected for the ensuing year: Pres, j E. H. Wolcott; Sec’y, E. A. Walker; Ex- , ecutive committee, W. E. Fox, 8. T. Virden and Robert Iron. Wolcott is to be the next place of meeting, time to be set later.—Chalmers Ledger.

He Should Try a Bi-Weekly.

Goodland’s new paper, The Tribune, is coming right to the front, and it is but a question of time when ite ranting partisan competitor will tire of holding the bag and send his outfit to the junk shop. The Herald’s spirits of political intolerance can’t be overcome even by its semiweekly spasms. The Tribune is clean, well edited, enterprising, popular and free of partisan bias. The following is a sample of the Herald man’s mastery of the English languages “The riot act as well as the death knell to the two old parties on last Tuesday at the Populist Convention. The denunciation was terrible but as it is predicted upheavel is put off for several months, we can rest easy for a time.” Buy a 25c grammar, brother, and confine yourself to items of one sentence and words of four letters before you strike out so recklessly again. Possibly if you would change your paper to a bi-weekly it would touch a popular chord, for it is reasonable to believe that the less of such language mutilation that your readers have dished up to them the better it will please them.

Francesville Farmers Institute.

“The Farmers Institute on Monday and Tuesday,” says the correspondent of the Winamac Republican, “was well attended and voted a success by all who were in attendance. The addresses by Prof. Huston and S. E. Kelsey were well received and provoked a lively discussion on the subjects treated of. Mrs. Clara S. Everts won many friends by her manner of discussing the subjects assigned to her. The music furnished by the choir was excellent and a number of recitations given by young people of the town was greatlv appreciated. The center of attraction in the hall was the exhibit of agricultural products. The corn exhibit was very large and fine and demonstrated that the soil of Pulaski county is equal to the emergency when called upon to raise the cereal. Other exhibits were good. Winamac was selected as the place for holding the next Institute and Nate Rawn, president and C. L. Bader, secretary for the coming year.” The premiums were awarded as follows:
