NEWS AND PERSONALS.

Rensselaer ought to have a firstclass Fourth of July celebration this year, and it is about time td begin working the matter up. Mr. and Mrs. Zimri Dwiggina, of Oxford, passed Sunday in Rensselaer. Mrs. Dwiggins will remain with her friends here for a couple of weeks. The Winamac Times after a brief, if not brilliant career of about six weeks duration has departed this life. Its editor, A. E. Atchison probably has not so much money as a few months ago, but he knows a heap more. The General Conference of the Methodist Protestant ehurch is now in session .at Baltimore, Md. Lewis S. Alter, our county Surveyor, was a lay delegate, being one of ten delegates from this state, but press of business deterred him from attending. Judge P. H. Ward came over from Kentland, Monday evening, and went back Tuesday morning. While here he appointed Mr. N. S. Bates, Jury Commissioner, to act during the absence of Mr. G. H. Brown, the regular commissioner, who, is in California. Gen. J. C. Yan Rensselaer is now making his annual visit to Rensselaer, and for the present is the guest of Judge E. P. Hammond. He expects to remain in this place for several weeks. The old gentleman is still enjoying a fair share of health and manly vigor, although the recent death of his only son, Schuyler, was a terrible affliction. Our Methodist brethren are trying to work up a scheme to make Rensselaer a station by itself, with a pastor to give his whole time to ministerial work in the town. We are not advised as to what the prospects for the plan are, but it will greatly to the advantage of the religious interests of both l own and surrounding countty if it can be made a success.

Last Sunday afternoon Elder D'. T. Halstead of the Church of God, administrated the rite of baptism, by immersion, to the following named persons: Mr. and Mrs, Zimri Dwiggins; of Oxford, Mr. S. A. Henry, Miss Ella Dwiggins, Miss Rosa Paris, and Miss Minnie Warren. The baptisms performed in the river, at the usual place, above the coal oil well. Capt. W. D. Wallace, of Lafayette has been blossoming out ap a poet within the last few weeks. A couple of stanzas by him, published in the Indianapolis Journal, one entitled “To Woman” and the other, “Be Brave” really possess considerable merit, especially the last mentioned, but another production of his entitled, “The Poet’s Answer”, lately published in the Chicago Inter-Ocean is a piece of unmitigated nonsense. I . An effort is now being made to organize a Normal Sunday School Class in Rensselaer, for the instruction and training of Sunday school teachers. A meeting in the interests of such an institution will be held Friday evening, May 23rc], at the residence of Mr. M. F. Chilcote, on Division street. All ministers, Sunday school officers and teachers, and all others interested iii the prosperity of the town Sunday schools, are requestto attend the meeting.

Ex- boldiers and all others interested will bear in mind the Memorial services at the M. E. church next Sunday. The G. A. poßt of this place will attend in a body, and it is understood that many soldiers from the surrounding country will also be in attendance." " We repeat the invitation extended by the post to all exsoldiers to meet with them at their hall, in Leopold’s old building, at 9 o’clock a. m., on Sunday and to march witlupthem to the church. >- H. VV* Burch j the editor of the Indianapolis greenback paper, The Dawn, who was put tinder arrest at Richmond for forging tfye name of his greenback brethren, has withdrawn his plea of not guilty, entered last week, and put in one of guilty. lie did this on the advice of his attorneys, and in the hope of a light sentence. In consideration of Burch’s youth Judge Kibbey let liim off with the lightest punishment the law allows —a fine of $lO and a two years’ term in’ the penitentiary.

The Hon. Anson Wolcott, of White county, was in town yesterday. These are dull days for the newspapers as well as for everything else and interesting local items fire sbout as scarce as hens’ teeth. Dr. anti Mrs. I. B. Washburn returned Tuesday evening from a week’s visit among friends and relatives in Pulaski and Cas3 counties.- - James F. Givens gives notice of intention to apply to the board of commissioners of Newton county for a license to k,eep a saloon at MouniiAiry. Items suggested by T. J. All quiet oil tlie Iroquois. May is pleasanter than December. The Sunday schools are on a boom, and the devil must go. - President Roosevelt and some of the directors of the L., N. A. & C. railway are arranging to come west within a week or two for a general inspsetion of the property. T. J. McCoy has just ordered from Albany, New York, a fine blooded, “herd book” Red Irish Setter pup, at a big price, and with- a pedigree longer than himself.

Capt. J. A. Burnham, tbo agent for this place, was distiibutiug to the subscribers the first volume of Blaines great book “Twenty years in Congress” last week. it is a finely got up volume, of about 600 pages. Messrs. J, T. Abbett, M. B. Alter, E. C. Nowels and Pt. P. Benjamin all went to Indianapolis Tuesday. Mr. Abbett as representative of Iroquois lodge to the Grand lodge of Oddfellows, which met yesterday. Notice tc Odd Fellows.— Members of Iroquois lodge, No. 143, I. O. O. F., are requested to mceji at their lodge room at 1 o’clock p. m., on Friday, May 30th for the purpose of attending Decoration Day exercises in a body. C. B. Steward Sec’y. Church Services Next Sunday. —At the M. E. church by the Rev. T. C- Webster memorial services in the morning, regular services in the evening. At the Presbyterian church building, by the Rev. M. 0. Miner, of the Free Will Baptists, in the morning. At the Baptist church, by the Rev. J. W. Stark, morning and evening. Tlie Rev. M. C. Miner, held his second baptismal service, at Badger Grove, on last Sunday, eight were baptised, and will be received into full fellowship in the church. On next Sunday Mr. Miner begins A series of sermons in Rensselaer, on “The doctrines of the Bible,” including, “Justification”, “Regeneration,” “Adoption” and “Sanctification”. The public are invited to come and hear these subjects presented. At .the close of the services on Sunday uext, the ordinance of baptisin’* will be administrated.

Rev. Gilbert Small, after filling his appointment at Meadow Lake on Sunday, went on Monday to Kentland to assist in the installation of his old classmate, Rev. Joseph McHatton, as pastor of the Presbyterian church at that place. These two men entered the class together at the Theological Seminary of the associate Presbyterian church at Canonsburgh, Pa., in June, 1850. For nearly twenty years they were members of the Second Synod of the U. P. church und are now, after the lapse of Tnore than the third of a century, to be again associated as members of \ the Logansport Presbytery. —[Monlicello Herald. M. J. Ahlgrim, an ingenious young citizen of Rose Liwn, has lately invested ,pnd had patened aucHs now manufacturing an instrument which he calls a “Gall Weaner”, which looks very much as tbouglA it might be a veiy efficacious TOstrumenf for the purpose which its name suggests. A sample, article has been sent to this office, but as we have no weaning of any kind on hand, just at we are unable to make a practical test of its value. If the inventor of the “weaner” could devise some improvement or modification to the instrument which woulrl make it effective in weaning politicians from the jdesire to hang too long to the public teat he would indeed have tilled' a long felt want, and his fortunebe made.
