The Remington News, last WBok, severely and justly, we think, censured the management of the Pan Handle railroad running through that place; for the manner' in which it has looked after the interests of shippers along the line. The News favors the project of the AV abash company which proposes the building of a road parallel to the Pan Handle, from Logansport to the state line. Advertising Cheats.—lt has become so common to write the beginning of an elegant, interesting article and then run it into some advertisement that we avoid all such cheats and simply call. attention to the merits of Hop Bitters in as plain honest terms as possible, to induce people to give them One trial, as no one who knows their value will ever use anything else.—* [Providence Advertiser.

The final settlement of the town board foj>the year just closed shows an exact tallying of accounts all the way through. There is a neat little sum in the treasury. The town is out of debt.' The management of the old board merits the sanction of the best citizens. The incoming members will be fortunate if they give equally as good satisfaction, which, from their well known good character and business ability, we have no doubt they will. It is with regret we chronicle the departure of Dr. J. 8. Owens to his former location, Kansas Illinois. Notwithstanding the fact the Doctor is a young man, which is always a hindrance to a young physician, yet by close attention and the special study of each case he was called upon to treat, he built up and retained a very substantial business. We predict for him a very successful professional cateer on account of knowledge and the application of rare good judgment so nesessary to the practice of medicine.

The Festival.

AS REPORTED FOR THE REPUBLICAN. On Tuesday of this week the attention of the passer-by was attracted to the windows of the recently vacated store room of Percupile & Co., and he gazed with amazement and rapture intent as he beheld the handsomely decorated windows where the curtains, gracefully draped hang in massive folds. His countenance expands into a Inroad, happy smile as he reads this placard:.“Ho ! Everyone that hungereth and thirsteth! Come ye, eat and rejoice, at the Boston Tea Party, u|>on the third night of the first week in the merry month of May!” In the evening the old fashioned supper was announced by the bellringer who walked to ana fro ringing out the glad tidings from his iron bell. People listened and thought: “What a world of merriment its melody foretells!” The table to which you were invited was not ornamented with handsome china or majolica ware, but good old fashioned blue dishes. The pictures on them, no doubt, have interested some of our grandmothers when children, and from those dishes you were given one of the best of old time suppers, consisting of boiled ham, baked beans, ginger bread, coffee and innumerable good eatables, such as our forefathers appreciated; or, if you preferred, you could have a bowl of mush ami milk. The chief attraction of the evening was “Ye Old Curiosity Shop.” Could Dicken’s “Old. Curiosity Shop” be compared to it? In it were found relics of past ages; curiosities of art and manufacture from all climes and all times. There our revolutionary fathers and mothers revisited us. Among these relics some were fifty, one hundred, and some two hundred years old. Articles which, no doubt, are very valuable to the owners. All who entered the Curiosity Shop were delighted and thought the pleasure of going there well worth the small sum of five cents. As the supper was given by the Ladies’ Industrial Society of the Presbyterian church, each member of the society Was dressed in as antique a costume as could be found. Some were attired as fashionable ladies of olden times with short sleeves and powdered hair with beautiful silk robes large figured and flowered, reminding one of a bed of roses, while other* appeared in the styles of the elderly ladies of that day with their plain black dresses and large neckerchiefs. Such costumes carry one back to the middle ages, The ladies of the society feel very grateful to Mr. Kern for loaning them the room, and wish him to accept their thanks, and also the people cf the town who'assisted in every way, and expressed their good will to help them in their undertakings. All went #way with happy hearts, thinking of the pleasant, sociable gathering, and saying: “It was good to be there.”
