Remington Notes.

We have had an abundance of rain the past week. Crops are still doing unprecedeutly well. A few of those obnoxious army worms are reported here in sight, but as yet they have not put in an appearance in sufficient numbers to do much damage or cause any serious uneasiness. It is to be hoped that this community will be spared the ravages of this obnoxious pest this season. Our people had much experience with them twelve years ago, and want no more of them. Fountain Park Assembly of the Christian church will be held this year at the beautiful park one mile north of Remington from the 17th, to the 27th of July inclusive. Rev. B. B. Taylor of New York City will conduct the regular evangelical services. There will be a splendid program for the exercises .each day. Opening day Eriday July 17th, Sunday school day Saturday July 18th, Christian Endeavor day, Tuesday July 21st. Old Settlers day, Thursday July 23d, Women’s day Friday July 24th; Temperance day, Saturday, July 25. Everybody cordially invited. Splendid grove, water, and all conveniences. James F. Ellis paid a visit to his farm in Fountain county last week. Frank says everything looks inviting in that locality. Rev. S. V. McKee of the Presbyterian church attended the State Sabbath School at Crawfordsville last week. While returning from Fowler Monday the 8t h inst, the writer was caught in a heavy rain and thunder storm. The lightning struck a wire fence around a pasture post west of Mt. Gilboa in which were several good horses, which had been driven to the east side of the pasture by the storm. The lightning killed one fine gray animal, and badly injured two others. We were quite near when the stroke fell. J. R. Schwerdman of Logansport is visiting with the family of J. O. B. McDoyle. Miss Bertha Dickey is visiting with the family of her brother-in-law, Rev. J. D. Carson. j There is a fine string of fast horses at present being trained at the fair grounds. It looks now like the speed ring will be all that could be desired. James N. Bull, and John H. Whitehead, doing a grain and hay business here for the past three years under the firm name of J. S. Banus &Co., and latterly under the firm name of Bull & Whitehead, made an assignment of all their property on the eighth inst, to Ira W. Yeoman as the trustee. The assets will amount to something over $20,000, with liabilities about the] same. Messrs Bull and Whitehead will each lose an excellent farm, besides other personal property. Our people all express their regrets at the misfortune of these two excellent men. They have both lived just across the line in Benton county for the last 25 years, and have all these years labored hard to accumulate a comfortable competency; but as is the case nine times in ten, a farmer who abandons the farm to engage in other business fails, so it was with these men. The uncertainty of the times through which we have been passing, as well as the bad management of their affairs, are largely responsible for this deplorable failure. Both men being on the shady side of life makes the case look more serious.

The children’s day exercises of the Christian Sunday School for the benefit of foreign missions, was held Sunday evening the 7th inst. The church was crowded to overflowing, many not being able to get seats, and some not being able to gain admission. All took a deep interest in the proceedings and the little folks certainly did remarkably well; each one performed his or her part well and to the entire satisfaction of the audi ence. The net proceeds of the evening was $12.25. The Presbyterian Sunday School held their children’s day entertainment for the benefit of the Sunday School work in Indiana, last Sunday morning. The church was fully seated, and the children did remarkably well.

Neighborhood Notes and Gossip.

The proceeds of their entertaininent amounted to about sls. It is encouraging as well as edifying to attend the beautiful entertainments, and they speak volumes for the enlightenment and morality of every community in which they are held. The bicycle parade and fire works exhibition held in Remington on the evening of the 6th of June was considered by all a great success. The balloons sent up were also grand. The streets were crowded. It was considered by many that there were more people in Remington on that occasion than had ever assembled here before on any one occasion. The crowd was also quite orderly, there being no complaint of any rowdyism or drunkenness whatever. Remington will also celebrate “Glorious Fourth” of July this year. There will be games and races at the fair grounds for the entertainment of the people during the entire day. and at night there will be an extraordinary display of fire works in the town which will cost in the neighborhood of S2OO. Every one in and around Rensselaer, who desires to have a good day’s enjoyment is respectfully invited to come to Remington, when we are sure their anticipations will be fully realized.

Union Township.

' John Gariott and wife of Aix visited Mr. and Mrs. Win. Hudson near Virgie last Monday. Albert Keener is going to locate in Chicago in a few days with his new bride. Geo. Casey is better again.

Jinkens has received a patent on his dredging machine. He intends to begin work with it week. Bozz Hooper has closed partner ship with Simon Kessukk and returned home to help his aged father sow his millet. He will then cross the sea and visit foreign countries for his health. Carl Hamocher and his lady took a drive Snnday afternoon in his new buggy; they also spent Sunday evening near Rose Bud with friends. Todd & Son are very busy at the carpenter trade. Mr. Goff has purchased an organ. Mr. McClanah was son struck Monday but is able to walk the floor and sing “bye oh baby bye.’ Scott Richardson was seen on his road to North Dakota last we«k. He is going into the wheat business. E. Pierson and family are talking of moving to Valparaiso. Wm. Hudson is sawing wood this wlfek with his new engine. He thinks it is a profitable business.

FORESMAN.

Weather is somewhat warmer. That is what the corn needs. Oats are heading out so it will not be long till harvest. We never had better prospects for a good crop of every thing than we have this year. Henry Antchiff is off duty on account of running a nail in his foot. Miss Alice Foresman took dinner with Mrs. C. E. Sunderland Sunday. W. A. Evans and family visited in Rensselaer Saturday and Sunday. Frank Foresman has a position in the Home Bank of Goodland. W. C. Sunderland and wife visited among their children last Sunday. J. B. Foresman talk& of moving back to the farm in the near future. W. D. Foresman has the rock on the ground for his new scales. He is preparing for a big oats crop.
