THE PEOPLE'S PILOT, RENSSELAER, IND., THURSDAY. APRIL 23, 1896.

A refreshing shower occurred Sunday morning. By the invention of a glass coffin a Remington man nas solved the problem of residing in a crystal palace. G. G. Garrison was in from Remington Saturday and made the Pilot office a pleasant call. Our blacksmiths report an abundance of work in their line, but nearly all on credit. “Will pay when we sell our oat crop.” Last week was a busy one for farmers and the greater part of the large oat crop was sown. The warm, growing weather has made the fields green, oats coming up within four days after seeding. Burns are painless when DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve is promptly applied. This statement is true. A perfect remedy for skin diseases, chapped hands and lips, and never fails to cure Piles. A. F. Long.. It is said that in the dividing of the town into wards the saloons were purposely thrown into the second ward, a territory which is reported to be strongly opposed to then*, and that it is designed to prevent a reissuance of licenses. We might tell you more about One Minute Cough Cure, but you probably know that it cures a cough. Ever one does who has used it. It is a perfect remedy for coughs, colds, hoarseness. It is an especial favorite for children, being pleasant to take and quick in cu r ing. Sold by A. F. Long,druggist. Mr. and Mrs. E. P. Honan left Sunday morning fbr Danville, 111., to be present at the wedding of the former's brother, Dr. J. H. Honan of Hammond, and Miss Mollie McMonnes of Danville, 111., which occured at 9 a. m., Monday. The newly wedded couple started for Europe Tuesday, where Mr. Honan is to take a course in medicine. S. A. Henry of Indianapolis, formerly of Rensselaer, was in town from Sunday until Tuesday looking after some business interests which he still retains in this thriving city. He was the guest of his brother-in-law, Berry Parris. Mr. Henry, in speaktng of the “approaching return of prosperity,” remarked on the prevalent impression that prosperity was lingering in the lap of adversity. Charles Coen traded his place Monday for the Dwiggins property on McCoy avenue and will take possession the same in a few days. By thus moving from the third to the first ward he becomes in elligible to hold the office of councilman, should he be elected, and he therefore tendered his resignation as a candidate. The vacancy was filled at a special meeting held in the court house Monday night after the regular city convention, and J. A. Kight was placed on the ticketThe Republican municipal convention held Monday night nominated T. J. McCoy for mayor, C. C. Starr for treasurer, Schuyler Irwin for clerk and Tom McGowan for marshal. It was a very large and enthusiastic convention, over 300 votes being cast. The approaching city election promises to be the most interesting contest ever experienced in Rensselaer, and it is thought by those who know that there are surprises in store for some of the candidates. It’s just as easy to try One Minute Cough Cure as any thing else. It’s easier to cure a severe cough or cold with it. Let your next purchase for a cough be One Minute Cough Cure. Better medicine; better result; better try it. A. F. Long, druggist.
