A new flopr, nicely oiled, has been laid in the county clerk’s offico. I Fred Phillips has the most beautiful line of neckwear in the city. B. J. Hughes says he handles the finest line of cigars and tobacco in the city. People of Newton county report creeks out of banks that have not been so greatly swollen in four years. A small,force of stone cutters resumed work on the court house Monday. The contractors are still waiting for iron. A beautiful line of handkerchiefs in linen and silk at Fred Phillips’. W. S. Felker & Co., who opened their , ;drug store at Fair Oaks about a month ago, are doing well and merit a liberal patronage. Wm. Synder of Barkley township was accidently shot and killed yesterday while hunting on one of Gifford’s farmß in Barkley township, by a man named Parker. ' ' l The old bell of the court house waß, by order of Judge Thompson, raised on blocks where it rests in the corner of the . court house lot, and has been rung this week as of old. The work in circuit court this week has been that of motion and setting of cases for trial. The trial of cases will begin to-morrow. Francis Geese has had his meat market running at Fair Oaks for two weeks. It is a great convenience to the people of that locality and he is doing a very satisfactory business. The old lady was right when she said, the child might die if they waited for the doctor. She saved the little one’s : life with a*few, doses of One Minute ■Cough Cure. She hud used it for croup ; before. Sold by A. F. Long. Miss Ella Culp is the most prompt subscriber on the Pilot books. She always pays in advance, for four years never having failed to call and renew her subscription the week that it expired. Fresh bread, pies, cakes, daily on hand. Fresh oysters served in all .styles at all hours. Candies and nuts a -specialty. Half a block south of depot. % J. L. Foster. Our fellow townsman, D. A. Stoner, will deliver a series of lectuees on poultry at Purdue this winter. Mr. Stoner has made a success of the poultry business and is surely able to give interesting and valuable talks on this subject. Absolutely pure, perfectly harmless, and invariable reliable are the qualities of One Minute Cough Cure. It never r fails in cold, croup and lung troubles. Children like it because it is pleasant to takS and it helps .them, A, F. Long. While our court house is being erected , with snail-like progress, and only prom- . mised ten months hence, the largest in the world is being put up in Chicago in two sections, the first to be done June the first, and the whole by Nov. first next. Dr. Horton feels a little pride in the fact that he recently extracted a dozen teeth fpr a citzen of Renssslaer who was the first white boy to Jasper county. The Operation did not seem to bother the old gentleman a particle, and he made no “fuss” at all. We notice that the new judge is correcting a two prevalent evil in the matter of attorney’s fees in collection cases. He has pruned the lawers estimates of what each others services were worth with a free hand and saved many a dol- • lar to the unfortunate debtor. Misses Nellie Van Smith and Marybell - Purcupile kept New Year open house from 7:30 to 10 p. m. at the house of the latter. Their assistants were Miss Lyda Smith of Worthington, Miss Mullinix of Spencer, Miss Dwiggins of Chicago, Miss Susie Parker, Miss Nellie Hopkins and Miss Nellie Moss.

Soothing, and not irritating, strength ening, and not weakening, small bat effective such are the qualities of DeWitt’s Little Early Risers, the famous little pills. Sold by A. F. Long. It is learned that the Robinson Brothers have sold out their lumber and coal business to F. J. Sayler. Warren Robinson and James Babcock left Monday for lola, Kansas, where they expect to make some investments. There is talk of organizing a young men’s Christain Association in Reraselaer. This is quite the proper thing to do. A good hall is ready for occupancy and could be fitted with reading room and gymnasium, and by a litte effort the institution could be pushed to a very valuabe auxiliary to our public schools. Here free from demoralizing influences young men could find elevating amusement and healthful recreation coupled with opportunity for instruction. A moral influence can be exerted through such a society that is needed in Renselaer now and the project should receive more than ordinary consideration.
