Eczema How it reddens the skin, itches, oozes, dries and scales 1 Some people call it tetter, milk crust or salt rheum. The suffering from it Is sometimes intense; local applications are resorted to—they mitigate, but cannot cure. It proceeds from humors inherited or acquired and persists until these have been removed. Hood's Sarsaparilla positively removes them, has radically and permanently cured the worst cases, and is without an equal for all cutaneous eruptions. noon's iuu are the best cathartic.

The only seventeen year locust we have yet heard of in Jasper county was brought in town by a farmer last week. He had it on exhibition in a bottle and it attracted considerable attention. In many bounties of the. state they have appeared in great numbers. The storm at Lafayette Saturday destroyed the roof of the Monon freight house at Salem street. The wind lifted the great covering of the big warehouse and carried it through the air to a distance of 100 feet, scattering the pieces along the street.

“Farmer” Hopkins Arrested.

“Farmer” Hopkins, from up about Nubbin Ridge, was in town Saturday, which is nothing unusual. He also got drunk, which is another not unusual circumstance. The unusual pare of the matter was that Saturday forbearance ceased to be a virtue and he was arrested and placed in jail until he sobered up. As it was a late hour when the sobering up took place his trial was postponed until next Saturday, at 10 o’clock, when Squire Troxell will deal out justice to him. Hopkins gave a SIOO bond for his appearance. The members of the state militia company each received $7.65 Monday in payment for their eight days’ attendance at the state encampment. The amount should have been $8 each, but the bdys had to pay for six blankets and a few pairs of white gloves which they allowed members of another company to steal from them. There was a colored woman in town Wednesday and Thursday collecting money for a church at Rockford, Ill.—Morocco Courier. If we are not badly mistaken this same colored woman was here last summer collecting money for the construction (?) of the same church. The only safe way to treat these traveling beggers is to show them the door. Nine out of ten of them are frauds. The wedding of Fred Parcel Is, cf Rensselaer, and Miss May Paxton, of Remington, took place at 7 o’clock last Sunday evening at the latter place. The bride is a charming young lady who has made her home in Rensselaer for some months. The groom is a native of Rensselaer, and is engaged in the barber business with his father here, where they will make their future home. Joseph Hall, of Delphi, is under arrest at Marion, charged with selling teachers’ examination questions to J. H. Fickle, a student of Marion norjnal college. It is said they met in Marion by appointment and Fickle paid $25. It is also alleged that Fickle sold to two others, who, in turn, resold until twenty-live persons were supplied. The discovery was made by Miss Chambers, who bought the questions for $2, but became conscience-stricken and could not finiph the examination. The annual banquet of the Rensselaer High School Alumni Association was held at the court house Monday evening. It was a brilliant and enjoyable affair, plates being laid for 129 persons. The toastmaster was County Superintendent L. H. Hamilton, who was responded to by B. F. Fen<}ig, of the class of ’B6; Superintendent W. H. Sanders; Helen Wasson, of the class of ’95; Dr. I. M. Washburn, of the class of’92; Ray Yeoman, of the class of ’O2; W. H Parkinson, of the class of ’95, and Mrs. J. H. Chapman, of the class of ’B3. Tuesday was the Knights of Phthias decoration day and a proper observance of the occasion took place in the afternoon. The services consisted of a parade to the cemetery, participated in by the Citizens’ band, old soldiers, the local military company and the Knights. At the cemetery the graves were decorated according to the ritual of the order. Rev. B. F. Ferguson made a brief address. He paid high tribute to the order and its fraternal and benevolent work and spoke in fitting terms of David J. Thompson and Mordecai F. Cbilcote, the two members of the order who had died during the year. Fred Brown was fined $3 and costs by Squire Troxell last Thursday for assault and battery upon Bert Rhoades the evening before. The total of fine aDd costs amounted to sl4. Both of the boys had been paying attention to the same young lady and Bert was on his way to escort the lady to a dance when the assault took place. Rhoades has a black eye to show for his punishment. Brown was to blame in the matter and made amends as far as possible the next day for his bad temper by making a manly apology to young Rhoades. Both the boys are among our most respected young men and the affair is greatly regretted by all.
