It la one of the most commodious and best-lighted rooms In Indiana. Goods sold at bottom prices. ’ —Mr. A. 8. Jones, after a delay of about eight months with a broken arm, has resumed bis position as conductor on the 1., D. A C. passenger train. He is an experienced railroader and a royal good fellow.

—M. F. Cbiloote, attorney at law, stands at the bead as a subscriber to the Republican. He pays for five copies, four of wjrich we send regularly to his relatives abroad. That’s the kind of patronage that makes an editor feel proud and nerves him to greater diligence. If any individual wishes to go Mr. Ohlloote one better we will welcome him (or her) with open arms —Mr. Harvey W. Wood, who has served the county faithfully aud well for'eight long years as Recorder, stepped down and out on the first day of this month to give place to his successor. Mr. Abbott. Mr. Wood has removed with his family to his farm, and to give his special attention to agricultural pursuits. ,He is one of Jasper county's noble citizens, and the time may come in which he will be again called to serve the dear people. The M. E. church and Sab-bath-school here will miss his presence and faithful services. —The commencement exercises of the Rensselaer High School graduating class, at the Opera House, last Friday evening,was a creditable entertainment and one In which the patrons of the school and school officials can Justly feel proud. Compsitfons exhibited research and penetrating minds, and being committed were delivered in a manner that smacked of previous oratorical experience. The diplomas were presented by Mordecai F. Chilcote, and Simon P. Thompson addressed the class in a few well-cho-sen sentences. The Opera House was crowded with eager listeners, each of whom expressed or manifested a high appreciation of the entertainment. —We this week announce the name of Thomas H. Davisson as a coudidate for the nomination for the office of sheriff. He Is a worthy citizen ofUnion township, who has at ail times maintained a firm position in the Republican ranks and used his influence to advance the interests of the party. He has been a citizen of Jaaper county since 1844 and served his country faithfully In the suppression of the late Democratic rebellion, receiving a wound in the right knee, at the battle of Murfreesboro, - that lamed him for life. His qualifications.\re amply sufficient to oorrectiy discharge the duties of theoffice, and- if nominated and elected be will become an efficient official.

—R. 8. Woodin, an old gentleman, residing two miles north of Good land, in Newton county, rode a jack tosome locality north of Rensselaer, last Friday. The severe shaking up he received somewhat inflamed his internal organism, and the urethra refused to permit tbe usual urinary evacuations. Friday night was passed in great misery at the Peacock House. Early Saturday morning Drs. Alter, Bitters and Loughridge were called, but each failed to relieve the sufferer by means of the usual surgical appliances. Finally the last-named physician punctured bis abdomen and pumped tbe fluid excrescence therefrom. Since that time be has been better, but at the present writing he is still in a critical condition. • —Severe! subscriptions expired on the first day of May, which will be discontinued after this issue unless sooner renewed. All of which means thAt subscriptions to the Republican must be paid in advance. The rush of new subscribers justifies and our financial good demads that we pursue this cohrse. Borne people become offended when tbeir county paper is discontinued at the expiration of the time paid for. but accept it as all right and proper if their city paper is conducted on tbe same principle. Unless parties notify ua that they want tbeir paper sent on we shall drop all names fifcm tbe list as fast as the times paid for expire- The date of subscription can always be found at the end of the name, on tbe margin of tbe paper. —Last Saturday morning T. M. Jones’s Merchant Tailoring Establishment was discovered to be on fire, and in a few minutes more the entire row of frame buildings with which it is connected might have been consumed. Tbe char-coal goose had been fired up for the day’s work and was permitted to occupy a position on a table in the rear of the room, from which a pair of pants, just completed, were ignited. The flames leaped in an instant to a pile of cotton lying on top of a tier of shelving, and the fire was making the best possible headway when the smoke was seem booming from the doors and windows. Tbe goods were fully insured and all damges will be promptly recovered. A tab lor's goose has long maintained a reputation for nagbaty tricks, but this is the first time to our knowledge that it has attempted to burn opt the boss.

THEY WILL STAY. Owing to tbs Increase* trade-and foe many warmly cxpusstd wishes of foe people, the (treat Cheap Store of Sharpe, Grey A Co., have decided to remain to Rensselaer for another 30 days. They Propose, during this time, to sell as heretofore, below all oompetltloa, and in tact a great many articles win be found reduced from their former low prices. No person desiring to mate their ®oney go se far a* possible should fall to visit this first-class establishment. F. J. Sears & Son have 30 crates ofQueensware consigned to them, which will be sold in any quantity to suit purchaser. Theae goods most be sold. All parties in need are invited to call and examine.

He intends making a superior line of work and selling at the lowest prices. —Mr. Lewis L. Dougherty has been persuaded to becomes candidate for the nomination for sheriff of Jasper county. He will be formally announced next week.

—LineusW. Martin paeked his gripsack last Monday, for Lincoln, the capital of Nebraska. He will probably remain uutil the ‘‘fall of .the sear and yellow leaf.” —A three-ton burglar-proof safe was received Monday and placed in the vault of Mr. John Makeover’s Loan and Deposit Bank, Tuesday. It eontains a time lock and all the modern improvements for safety and convenience. —Mr. J. S. Day, connected with the C. A. I. A. L. railroad company, was in.town this week, pushing that enterprise. He says the road will be completed from city to city within a year if the citizens along the line do their duty. —ln another place in this issue can be found fieisrs. Willey A Sigler’s ad; vertisement of their mammoth double store in the Opera House building. They are experienced merchants aud know just bow to cater to the wants of the citizens of Jasper county.

—One Radical who voted for D. B. Miller, said be did so because he concluded "Dan Is a nice enough man to be a Republican.” We shall not attempt to persuade Mr. Miller from the error of bis way, but, we are sorry to see him wasting his energies on the Democratic party. —The following persons were elected officers of the M. E. Sabbath-school last Sabbath: Jaa. T- Abbott, superintendent; Mrs. F. L. Cotton.assistant; Miss Ella Osborne, secretary; E. L. Clark, treasurer and corresponding secretary; Miss Lolo Moss, organist; E. H. Tharp, chorister. —The Chicago A Indianapolis Air Line Railroad Company are advertising for three hundred more men to assist in preparing the parrow guage for a standard guage track. No laborer need staud around crying for bread so long as there is so much demand for his services at fair wages.

Quite a number of farmer* from "Wlilte and adjoining counties, were In town tills week trading at the Cheap Store. Good good* at reasonable prices will bring people from all distances. —Hon. R. 8. Dwiggens has been solicited to deliver a lecture at the Christian church, nexj Sabbath, at 11 o’clock, on the subject of Prayer. All the members of the Blue Ribbon Choir have been notified to be present and assist in the singing. The public generally is cordially invited to attend. —We hope if Uncle Jimmy has anj--thing to say about us this week he will couch it in respectable language and not grovel In the mud. A majority of his patrons are anxious to have him stop “polyfoxing” with the defunct Greenbackers, attend to his knitting and publish a paper worthy of the party he misrepresents. Some of D. B. Miller’s supporters claim that he was slaughted in the house of his Blue Ribbon friends. That’s a mistake. He was opposed by tfie anti-temperance Democrats party and they are they who boast that they “cooked his temperance goose.” Theprbofof this is that he received not less than twenty-five Republican votes. Democracy and temperance are two elements, as the darkey said, that “won’tparalize.” —Miss Celia Wilkinson, teacher of the primary department of the Rensselaer Graded Schools, returned last Monday to her home at Westville, Ind. Hes natural tact and protracted experience in teaching verdant ideas how to shoot, has made her a most valuable adjunct to the diffusion of knowledge- We hope the school board may deem it expedient to employ her services for another school year, should she wish to return here. —Under the head of announcements may be found the name of Rev. D. T. Halstead, who has been solicited to become a candidate for tbe nomination for the office of county treasurer. He has been a resident of Jasper county since 1852, and has become so well known as an upright, honorable citizen that we need "not refer to his personal or political record. He served tbe county several years ago as auditor for tw& terms and gave universal satisfaction. We bespeak for him a carefbl consideration of his candidacy and if deemed expedient give him an earnest support • Many new and attractive things have been added to the Cheap Store this week. People who are alive to their own interest are not slow to perceive that the place to make every cent count is at the Cheap Store of Sharpe, Gray a Co. —Now that the completion of the Chicago A Indianapolis Air Line railroad from Rensselaer to tbe Garden City has been assured, it would be the part of wisdom if some of our more extensive land holders, property owners and business men would adept some plan for advertising tbe town and county by setting forth advantages and general fertility. During the coming two years the tide of immigration to Jasper county can be made to excel our most sanguine expectations, provided the proper means are applied. The familiar old fogies of today will become comparative strangeres amid the growth and business enterprise of Rensselaer five years hence. "You can’t some times most always tell how far a toad cau jump ntill you punch It.”

We expect to offer at auction in a few days, a large lot of assorted qneensware. F. J. Sears & Son.* IT PATS! There Is no question but whet low piloes and gentlemanly treatment pays. These are the elements combined, that makes the Cheap Store a favorite resort £ forYals. • I have good Horse, Boggy and Harness which I win sen at anbidgain. - Rensselaer, Ind. W. E. MOSS.

aw*ttw advertisement WHllej * Sigler, ie In CMeago. thto week, buying an immense stock of Summer goods for the Trade Palace. —What Rensselaer and Jasper county need most at present la the completion of the Chicago Ifc Indianapolis . Air Line railway from this place tA Dolton, Illinois, where it will connect with tbe Chicago A Western Ind lane road and give us a direct line to tye metropolis of the West- Bat we are reliably informed that thia cannot be accomplished unless the citizens along the uneonstructed section vote the proper aid. The Republican shall never be found advocating exorbitant subsidies for rich corporations, but it la due that each citizen of the townships through which the road will pass should be.wllling to votes two-per-cent tax in aid of tbe enterprise, for the reason that in addition to the Improved facilities for shipping afforded, the increase in the value of lands will greatly exceed the outlay. After tbe road is completed from Rensselaer to Chicago work will commence immediately on its construction from Delphi to Indianapolis. This will be the most direct line between the two cities, and by the use of steel rails and other first-class appliances it will become at once a popular line of travelIt is to be hoped that each and every one will exert his influence for the accomplishment of this great enterprise, for it will assuredly afford us great convenience and profit.

The largest, best and cheapest stock of Dress Goods ever brought to tills place at the Cheap Store. —Some three weeks ago two country boys brought to town a large bird of the genus Strix, commonly called an owl, and offered it for sale for the deminutive sum of twenty-five cents. Whether they found a purchaser or not we have not been informed, but by some means it became the property of Harry, tbe jolly “Henglishman, at the ’Opkins ’Ouse.” In the course of human events this nocturnal marauder made good his escape, and started out in search of prey more palatable than the refuse of a boardinghouse table, and in keeping with his natural instincts. Last Monday afternoon he was found perched upon one of the large silver-poplar trees that occupy a conspicuous position in front of the editor’s residence. What particular object the owl had in invading the sanctity of an editor’s abiding place we are unable to divine, unless be hoped thereby to acquire public notority through the medium of the press. But alas for poor strix, be soon learned that his were not so agreeable as he had fttiped. Doe Bitters longed to capture this bird of prey, dead or alive, and seizing a revolver he fired with deadly aim, but his owiship simply acknowledged the salutation by a nod, and continued to occupy his elevated position as complacently as if no lurking foe was .seeking to deprive him of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The report of fire-arms soon attracted the attention of a number of young men, and each with a revolver in hand sought an opportunity to exercise bis Bkill in dislodging a fowl whose optical orgauism will not permit him to clearly discern objects in the glare of tbe noonday sun. Such repeated volleys of pistol shots had never greeted tbe ears of the unsophisticated denizens of Rensselaer, but the owl majesticly retained his position until he thought to exhibit his utter disregard for his assailants and prove that he was unharmed by hopping across to another limb, when a foot slipped and he came flopping to the ground. Being conveyed by tho tip of his mammoth wings to his rightful owner, he manifested and partially satiated his wrath by bounclDg a game rooster and penetrating his vitals until death ensued. This owlish episode reminds us of and incident that occurred at Peru, Ind., about the time the writer became a citizen of that then demure little village, some twenty-threeygare ago. An old gentleman named Mitchell, a Jew, with his family, having arrived some months previous from the old country, was aDxious to obtain a wild turkey, which were at that time reasonably plentiful in that section, and not unfrequently huntsmen offered them for sale on the streets. Mitchell being anxious to obtain one of these savory fowls of the air which he bad heard so much about but pever seen, approached a man with a gun on his shoulder and a large bird ia his hand, conversing on a street corner with Judge Stanley—who,by the way, was very fond of a joke. -Nearing the huntsman, Mitchell, in his usual squeaky voice, inquired: “Vot you ax for that t-a-r-key?” "That’s no turkey—lt’s an owl,” replied the man. "0,1 don’t care how ould he is, I takes him.” Judge Stanley gave the hunter the wink to sell it to the Jew, which he did fora nominal sum,and Mitchell went home well pleased with bis bargain. This occurred one Saturday evening. Monday morning Stanley accosted the Jew with—"Well,’Mr. Mitchell, how did you like your t-a-r----key?” "O, I cooks him, I stews him, I frys bin), and he’s so tough I couldn’t eats him!”
