Fay yoor rnffwcription. It is high time to make your fall announcements. The brick work on Leopold’s new building is being pushed up rapidly. - •« ■ . r. >y A L_ ~\_ Remembeb, the Jasper County Fair Hegins at licnsfeelaer next Tuesday. If you find a den in town that contains a tiger, don’t poke it with a pasteboard stick. ,

The Lightning Liniment vendors are amusing our people with outdoor concerts these evenings. A NUMBER of small tenant houses could be ranted if some enterprising capitalist would build them. The Rensselaer public schools opened Monday with a large attendance and bright prospects ffir the year. . • Do not forget to take your nice things to the fair next week, and thus help make the exhibition as creditable as possible. The Board of Commissioners convened in regular session at the Court House, Monday, and. are transacting a large amount of business. ..’

The two upper stories of the new hotel have been plastered and the building •is being pushed toward completion with great rapidity. . ; Four cases in justice’s court since last report. Deputy Prosecutor Watson and Justice Wood are having a “phat take” at the expense of th pugilists. A question,of “parliamentary” or of some other usage has arisen in the recently organized dancing club. Hope no serious complications may arise. The Rev. J. W. Loder win preach at Egypt school house, next Sunday, at 10:30 o’clock a. m., and at Watson’s school house at 4 P. M. of the same day.

The Morocco Fair opened Tuesday and closes to-morrow. The Rensselaer Comet Band goes over to-day to furnish music for the field day of the Fair. Deab Fodder 1-Creamery outter at the creamery is retailing at 30 vents a pound, and potatoes cannot be had at any pricQ. 51.50 per bushel is the price offered. _ Db. Washburn says the prospects are the poultry show will be good at the fair next week. He has received promises from many to bring their fine poultry. Quite a number of the inhabitants oL Nubbin Ridge are moving to Westville, Laporte county. They report that they have a Nubbin Ridge street in that town. Telegraph poles have been erected along the track of the Air Line from Chicago to Bradford. The poles used are cedar and are placed a distance of 100 feet apart. Things down at Goodland must be on the decline. The Herald Speaks of a piece of property which sold at $9,000, a few years since, jbeing sold at $3,900, the other day.

Married.—Charles M. Johnson, now proprietor of the Roann Clariop, but formerly a publisher in Rensodaer and Remington, was married last week, to Miss Mettie B. Misner. ' ' —— If Anybody is visiting you or if your friends are away from town on business or for a visit, come and tell ns. The notice of such little things more than all else make an interesting local paper. The . railroad track from this placets Bradford is being relaid with steel rails and the road bed is being put in better condition, to receive the fast trains, which will be put on this line in a few days.

e arc pleased td hear-some of the oldest farmers of Jasper county any they have the best crop of corn they , ever raised. Some say there is three times as much corn in this county as there was last year. • » I -■ reeer Mh. A. McCoy has given up the idea of building liecause the town council could not grant him the privilege of putting the outer wall of his proposed new building where that of his old building now stands, which is three feet out into Vanßensselaer street. -n The town board took the right eooreeand aikq/ted an ordinance which will* muse some very unsightly objects to be removed from tte bosiiMSs street We allude to those oiud paddles, old fashioned sigu posts, Mud rubbish always piy I the street The ordiappears elsewhere in these gdtmms lieadih . Z* z ‘.

Narrow Escape.—Sheriff Powell’s youngest daughter, Hattie, accidentally fell from » second story window, the other day. Aside from a severe shock she refißivecl no serious injury. It was a narrow escape. Those .using fine cut Tobacco, will find a better quality for 50 cents a pound at Kern’s than they ever bought before. 7 M Dpc” Jones, trustee of Kankakee township, and a few other democrats, thought they had discovered a mare’s nest of large dimensions, and cackled lordly, but the eggs were phantom ones. Come, boys, don’t cackle until the eggs are in the nest, next time.

Rensselaer has a dog-oned bad reputation abroad on account of the great number of dogs kept by the inhabitants. A traveling man said not long since that a number of traveling men agreed there were more dogs in Rensselaer than any town in Indiana of its size. Warner & Sons’ is where you go to purchase your Hardware, Furniture, etc. % - J- - rrThe backbone of the drouth was broken Thursday of last week, by a refreshing and copious shower, followed by a heavy rain, at which the vegetable as well as the animal world, wears a broad and contented grin. Much more rain is needed to fill the streams and soak the parched ground.

A car load of Monticello Flour at C. C. Starr «& Co.’s. ■ Infant Scalded.—John Hurley and family stopped at the house of Charles Florence, three miles south of town, the other evening. While at supper a five months old child upset a cup of boiling coffee on its left arm and side, scalding it so badly as to cause death in about twelve or fifteen hours. Dr. Washbum was called, but could do nothing more than jialliate its suffering. Stationery, pens, inks and pencils, cheaper than ever, at Tharp’s. Lightning Freaks. —Some damage by lightning was done last Saturday. In Hanging - Grove township Henry Randle lost two large stacks of wheat, and his brother had several tons of hay destroyed by lightning setting them on fire. A livery stable at Francesville was struck and three men were stunned so badly that their recovery was despaired of for a time. -

Willey & Sigler will not be undersold in clothing. The idea that a discrimination will be made by the Superintendent, in the award of certificates, against teachers who are in the .habit of' attending dances, has evidently touched a popular chord as the Superintendent doubtless believed it would. We presume the Superintendent has a perfect right to watch over the conduct of the teacher and interfere in case of the committal of any immoral act, but when he attempe to conform the conduct of the teacher to that which may be his fastidious notions of propriety, we believe he is overreaching the bounds of his jurisdiction.

Call and get one of those 12-inch rulers, free, at Tharp’s. How*to get Sick.—Expose yourself day and night; eat too much without exercise; work too hard without rest; doctor all the time; take all the nostrums advertised; and then you will want to know How to get Well, which is answered in three words —Take Hop Bitters! See other column.—[Evpress. * Extensive preparations are being made by the people of Monticello for the accommodation of people who will attend tlie reunion of the soldiers of Jasper, Bentoh, Newton and White counties, to be held at that place the 28th, 29th and 30th of this month. Many prominent men from nearly every part of the country will be present, and a grand time is assured.

An Old Woman’s Advice.—Aunt Rachel, writing to the Cincinnati Enquirer, says: “When you feel unwell and think you must take medicine, for goodness sake ‘get the best.’ If you need a remedy that will make you regular in your habits, give you a good natural appetite, make your skin clear and smooth, and remove all spots and blemishes that indicate ill health; if you wish to be free from meptal depression, fretfulness, peevishness, wakefulness and other disorders, use Brown’s Iron Bitters. It contains no alcohol, but will take away that unnatural desire dor alcoholic beverages, and make your mind and Ixxly healthful and strong. I know this from experience.” < . • .

Ladies, Don’t fail io call and take a look at Feudig’s stock of dress goods. It will coat yoh nothing to see them, and if you make a purchase you will nev«r regret it- ( New books exchanged for old ondsatTharp's.,

The Cyclopaedia War. 1 The month of July, ISBI, witnesses the completion of the largest and most important literary work this country and the century have seen. It is the Library of Uni Venal Knowledge, large type edition, in 15 large octavo volumes, containing 10 per cent mor* matter than Appleton'* Cyclopaedia, at lees than one-fifth its cost, and 20 per cent now than Johnson's Cyclopedia, ata little more than one-fourth its cost. , Chambers’s Encyclopaedia, which forms 'the basis of the Library of Universal Knowl> edge (the last London edition of 1880 being reprinted verbatim as a portion of its contents), is the laborious product t * ie British and European scholarship. It has devel- W I | V oped through a century of Cyclopaedia making; its various wsiv j editions having been many time* revised, in successive years, till it has come to be universally recognized, by those competent to judge, as standing at the very front of great aggregations of knowledge, and better adapted than any other Cyclopaedia for popular Use. It contains such rail and important information as the ordinary reader, or the careful student, is likely to seek, upon about 25,000 subjects in every department of human knowledge. Chamber*'? Encyclopaedia, however, is a foreign production, edited and published for a foreign market, and could not be ex- y smi ■ pected to give as much prominence to American topics as feu Q6* B A American readers might desire. To supply these and ■ wZI ■ lIV other deficiencies a large corp* of American editors and writers have added important articles upon about 15,000 topics, covering the entire field of human knowledge, bringing the whole number of title* under one alphabetical arrangement to about 40,000. Thus the work is thoroughly Americanized, and the Library of Universal Knowledge becomes at once the latest and most complete Encyclopaedia in the field, at & mere fraction of the cost of any similar work" which ha* . preceded it. , zx th* 2 *5 volumes, complete, in extra cloth binding, $15.00. In half tT lIC W Russia, sprinkled edges, $20.00. In half Russia, gilt top, $22.50. In full library sheep, marbled edges, $25.00. The superlative value and importance of this great Encyclopedia lies especially in the fact that it is brought within the reach of every one who aspires after knowledge and culture. It \s really a libra- R» ■ M e ry of universal Knowledge. It brings a liberal IIIT I ET education easily within the reach even of every Kw wVIW■■ vr I I plowboy of the country and apprentice boy of the city. Every farmer and every mechanic in the land owes it to himself and to his children that such a Cyclopaedia shall henceforward form a part of ths outfit of his home. To.the professional man, and every person of intelligence in every walk of life, a Cyclopaedia is a necessity. Of course the old and wealthy publishers who have grown rich fit is said that th* Appletons have made a profit of nearly two million dollars on their Cyclopaedia) fro* th* sale of their high-priced publications are not pleased that their monopolies are broke* and their power overthrown. Of course the book agents and booksellers who have-been used to getting from 40 to 60 per cent commission for selling these high-priced book* ara . SIO,OOO Reward ’l* ■ wF Jwr wF WF ■ v*M* tern on 15 per ccnt commtszioa, though those who are not short-sighted discover that their own interests, after all, ar* Identical with the interests of the people, add their real profits, in the end, are by the immense sales which result from meeting the people’s' wants. The majority of booksellers, however, are better pleased to slander than to sell this and our numerous other standard and incomparably low-priced publications. But the Literary Revolution ha*. always looked to the people, in whose iftris, for its patronage, and it has' neve* looked in vain, as our more than ao* E— JE A one million volumes printed last ■ ff Elf AQf Hffi year (this year being increased ■ V VFIMM OgVllfcOl to probably more than two millions) abundantly prove.
