THE RENSSELAER REPUBLICAN.

VOL. XIIL

.• One week ago the condition of the President seemed to be absolutely desperate. The dame of life seemed to have flickered so low thatevenan effort to revive it would have been fatal. His physicians were powerless, and without hope. Members of his cabinet were in despair, and his loving family mourned him as one lost to them •on earth forever. But from that hour, when the long heroic struggle seemed at last to have ended in defeat, there was a change for the better, and since then there has been a slow, and, perhaps, uncertain, but still constant improvement. The danger, indeed, is still great, and a fatal relapse is at any time possible. But this much at least- is sure: the President still lives and the people still hope.

Jordan Township Items.

Jordan township will produce two-thirds more corn this year than last. Wheat a fail are. Flax unusually good. Oat crop about onehalf the usual yield. Late potatoes none. The A. McCoy farm has nearly 400 acres of corn which will yield about 10,000 bushels. . Jordan can boast of a common field hand who claims to have $30,000 cash in bank. His name is Dock. The farmers are happy. Good corn crops, with prospective high prices. Grecnbackers scarce and looking badly-. No wonder. This is a hard yearonthem. Diagnosis: Impaired digestion; assimilation poor; their diet‘is of a meager character, and not sufficient to maintain life long; .a few copies of the Chicago Express dishing up. tho same old hash — money scarce, coin a relic of barbarism, with anti-monopoly as a dessert. Poor fctlowsF It is pleasing to see with what avidity they glosc their long bony fingers upon the bright shining dollars' of the daddies and half eagles, and, as usual, insii.-t that they will elect the •next president. But, to use the expressive language of our S. W. IL, wc can’t see how the devil they will do it. _ J.

Remington Items.

Dear Republican:—ln spite of the oppressive heat we will try and send a litile letter. The fair, with all its dust and discomfort, is over and done with. We had a pretty good fair, notwithstanding the extreme heat and drought. The display of fruit and vegetables was really creditable, “considering,” as Mrs. Pipchin would say to little Paul Dombey. The ladies, too, were on hand with quite a showing of fancy needle work, jellies, cakes, bread, canned fruit, etc. But we had almost forgotten the horses, the main feature of the fair. We cannot write enthusiastically of the races because we are foolish enough and unsophisticated enough to feel a pang of pity for the poor dumb creatures as they are driven and goaded to unnatural around the hot, dusty track. Tne premium stock was really beautiful and made quite a good display as it'was led around the ring. Several of the Rensselaer friends graced the grounds with their presence, but it would take too much-time and too much space in your vaiuable paper to try to mention all of them, and it would look unfair to the many to mention a few.

In our letter of last week (which reached you too late for publication) we gave you the names of many Remingtonians who had returned from tours of health, business and pleasure, but as it would now be news uto longer, we will not repeat it here. Tom Donnelly and John Major got “tickets of leave” from; the Northern Prison and took in the fair. Mrs. Howard, of Monticello, visited friends and relatives in this place last week. Miss Alma Kings-’ bury, of the same place, is also visiting here. .. Mr. David Kaufman, of Kokomo, an old time friend and highly respected resident of this place, made a short visit here the early part of this week. Mrs. Rawles and family have returned to their homo in Bloomington, after a pleasant visit of four

weeks.

We wish every person to try a Big Fifty-Cent bottle of Dr. Marshall’s Bromoline for liver complaints and general debility. It is good. Druggists all sell it.

Notice to Patrons of the Rensselaer Public Schools.

Owing to the very crowded condition of our schools, and the inadequacy of the present building to accommodate the pupils belonging to the school, we must request parents to send their children upon the first day of school, in order that they may secure seats, as it will be impossible to make room for all during the coming year. The following rule will be strictly enforced: Any scholar who is absent, from any cause, for two days consecutively, will forfeit his right to his seat, and will have to wait for another regular desk until one becomes unoccupied. We desire to call attention to the catalogue of the school issued this week, and which we wish to be in the hands of every family sending children to school. In this catalogue will be found the rules under which the school is governed, and it is the duty of every parent, as well as every scholar, to thoroughly understand these rules. With the hearty co-operation of the school patrons there is no reason why our schools should not be equal in efficiency to any in the state. ' R. 8. Dwiggins, ) ■ M. F. Chilcote, >• Trustees. . Ezra L. Clark, ) ’

A gentleman from Indianapolis was in the city the first of the week, looking for business rooms in which to open out in the drygoods business. As many others have been, he was turned off without much satisfaction. If there wore a dozen first-class store p’ooms to be erected here yet this fall they would be filled with tenants as soon as completed, and at good- profits to owners. Rensselaer is bound tot make one of the best business points in Northern. Indiana, and its citizens should encourage the establishment of all branches of industry. . < r ■ 1 —* l We have.received a couple commuqic '.Liens Ldely in regard to the resolution, seen to bo acted upon l>y the board oi township trustees, regulating the pay of teachers according to the grade of their licenses. Both communications are rather longer than we would care to use this week, and as they are upon Opposite, sides of the controversy we cannot be charged with showing partiality to either party if we throw both articles into the waste basket.

The unparalleled drouth still continues. Appearances of rain axe frequent, but end only in disapjxiiutnient. The oldest inhabitant hardly remembers so long a season of dry weather at this period of the year. The scarcity of water especially occasions much inconvenience in many localities, while the subject of pasture for cattle is getting to be a serious prdblem. Farmers are already giving their cattle the feed which should be reserved for winter. The Rensselaer public schools will open Monday, September 6th, and I wish to say to the patrons and pupils that I have in stock a full supply of school books, and school supplies, sticli as stationery, pens, inks, pencils, etc., jvhich I will sell at the lowest living prices. I will also exchange new readers, arithmetics, grammars, geographies and spelling books for old books of other kinds, at about one-half the regular prices. Please call and see me before buy : ng elsewhere, and you will save some money by doing so. . \

Respectfully.

Is it Possible —That a remedy made of such common, simple plants as Hops, Buchu, Mandrake, Dandelion, &c., make so many .and such marvelous and wonderful cures as Hop Bitters do? It must be, for when old and young, rich and poor, Pastor and Doctor, Lawyer and Editor, all testify to having been cured by them, we must believe and doubt no longer. See another column.—[Post. New Wqrdr.—The new Edition of Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary, numbering 1928 quarto pages, contains nearly 5,000 new words or new meanings of old ones. These words range over the fields of science, medicine, invention, discovery, research, etc., departments which in this age are constantly yielding fresh ideas, requiring new, words to express them. That they have not been hastily compiled is evidenced by the accuracy of and careful study given to their etymology and definitions. The inteltigent reader, or any reader who would be intelligent, will find this feature of the dictionary quite indispensable.

RENSSELAER, JASPER COUNTY, INDIANA, SEPTEMBER 1, 1881.

The teachers of Jasper county eonvened in their annual institute August 15th, and were called to order by Supt. Nowels. Immediately after opening the house proceeded to organize. The election of officers resulted as follows:. Vice President, Lee Glazebrook; Enrolling Secretary, Frank Hunt; Recording Secretary, Madge Osborne; Newspaper 'Reporters, Lillie Bartoo, Boyd Johnson and Alice Irwin. Each member was authorized to act in capacity of Treasurer in that he stored away as much as possible of the excellent mental provender furnished by our able instructors, Messrs. Ransburg, Allen, Hooper and Ufakeever. The following committees were selected: On resolutions, Mr. Roney, Myra Price and B. Johnson; on re-union, Mr. Allen and Allie Johnson; on music, W. de M. Hooper, Miss Hogan and W. W. Watson; on introduction, C. B. Antrim, May Miller and Laura Rathfon.

The Superintendent welcomed the 72 “fair girls and brave boys” assembled, in a short address, in which he clearly defined the aim of the convention to be that of mutual improvement, and not personal aggrandizement; The earnestness and good huraor manifested the first day were characteristic of sessions throughout the week.

Tuesday we had the pleasure of greeting two valuable workers, Mi's. C P. Mitchell, the long expected bride, and Prof. Ransburg, of Valparaiso. Meanwhile a petition had been circulated to hold the remaining sessions in the court room, as the four walls of the high school proved too narrow for the accommodation of such large, audiences as were drawn by the wonderful “outpourings” of eloquence. About 1:30 Wednesday, there might have been seen numerous small, boys on gale posts gazing wondering]y after the procession of pedagogues as they wended their way to 1 lie court room where all were duly and comfortably seated. Mr. Ransburg' then favored us with an hour’s discourse upon the subject of Natural History as a part of Elementary Instruction. The closest attention was elicited. In his opening remarks Mr. Ransburg surprised us with the intelligence that he had “lieat the thunder.” This undoubtedly should be set down as the most remarkable feat of the age. After lecturing two hours the following day upon Natural History as the basis of object and language lessons, and manner of securing and preserving specimens, our “foreign speaker” bade us a kind adieu. In one of his excellent talks upon music, Mr. Hooper claimed that any teacher with a little patience, common sense and skill, though without voice, taste or ear, could teach muaic successfully. Thursday was marked by exceedingly lively discussions upon Administrations, Mrs. C. P. Mitchell taking the hazardous position that secession might be traced as fur back as the organization of our government. It is needless to say that our expectations were great when Miss Bowles appeared Tuesday morning, and our disappointment bitter when we failed to hear one of her instructive talks.

Bro. Wood came up during the afternoon of the same day with the demeanor of one on. whose mind there was a matter of weighty importance, of which he relieved himself later in the session, when, to the, intense surprise of all, he arose and announced the ball to be held in Starr’s HaH the same evening. The Superintendent made a pointed speech ’ upon dancing, in which he neither denounced it as a crime nor held that it was an essential accomplishment. That was not the question at issue. But he knew that the popular sentiment of the county was againftt it, and if we • would secure perfect harmony in our schools, and the hearty support, of patrons, it would be best to yields to that popular sentiment, and it would be a slight concession when compared with those others have made. * . <

E. H. THARP.

The usual programme was followed until Friday, 1:30 p.m., when the forces were iqpstered for the last time and the final roll called. Prizes were awarded by the Superintendent to Chattie Sayers, Ruby Bruce and 'Rosa Coons for the greatest improvement in penmanship. ■.-j. £ f!'. ■ L The report of the committee on h”' '• ‘ ■’ -.‘Tc--- ‘CT’ »

The committee on resolutions reported 210 introductions given during the week. In these hastily arranged notes the Query Box, which constituted the most important feature *of the day, has been unnoticed. The questions found therein lead to many valuable suggestions and wise conclusions upon subjects which heretofore have been held in dispute.

A True Cause op Regbet.—lt makes the heart of every philanthropist sad to see so many worthless, patent medicines, puffed and advertised for the cure of chronic diseases. Usually the remedy is soma vile cathartic compound or alcoholic preparation, combined with budhti, turpentine or other severe diuretic that affords the invalid only temporary relief, but which has no lasting effect, and in truth eventually brings on a complication of diseases arising fromfa state of worn out and exhausted digestive and urinary organs .thht nothing but death can relieve Invalids should trust more to nature for their recovery. A gentle, medicinal tonic that stimulates enfeebled digestion, and strengthens every part of the system by its soothing and refreshing effect on both mind and body, is nature’s truest and best assistant. Such a jemedy is Brown’s Don Bitters, a medicine surpassing the sale of all other remedies wherever its merits become known, for it acts in such perfect harmony with the laws of life and health, that all pulmonary, urinary and digestive ,tr° u bl es are prevented and permanently cured by its timely use. Physicians and ministers especially endorse and recommend it highly when once they are persuaded to examine its composition and effect.
