REMINGTONIAN.

No sensible man should get angry because a newspaper man duns him, for money. A dun is not an impeachment of a subscriber’s integrity, but is simply an outcropping of the publisher’s necessities. ! For instance, 1,000 men owe the publisher from $1 to $4 each. He has to dun them all to get money enough to pay his expenses. Instead of getting angry and stopping the paper because the publisher aSks him for what is honestly due, the subscriber should thank the editor for waiting on him so patiently, and pay up like a man. —Valparaiso Yidette. Mrs Jennie Osborne, wife of Mr. Frank Osborne, now of Barkley township, but lately of Rensselaer, died monday morning last, after an illness of several months duration. She suffered from a complication of diseases chief among which was tubercular bronchitis. The funeral was held at the residence, in , Barkley tp., Tuesday, the Rev. T. C. Webster preaching the sermon. Mrs. Osborne was still young, and leaves a bereaved husband and four young children to lament her untimely death. The oddest of the children is about 7 yea&s, while the youngest was born iu March last. Oiie of the children, a boy Was taken last week, to Whitehall, Mich, by Mi;s._ Johnson,- sister of Mr. Osborne, -who will, we understand, adopt him. The baby is iu the case of Mrs. Walter Smith, of Barkley township.

Mrs. W oodworth, the evangelist, who Treated such a religious awakening at Tipton, Kokomo. and other places, has been spend-, ing a week at this place taking a much needed rest. Most of the ; time she has been at The lakesecluded from society. Her religious work at Kokomo lias been marvelous in number of conversions and those receiving baptism. About 40f)pereons~ claim to have found the stiaight and narrow way to heaven and happiness through her ministrations, and on Sunday the 14th, 0,000 people are said to have lined the banks of the Wild Cat to witness the baptism of 8.2 of her converts. A peculiarity of her religious teaching is thatr many of her sub jects go into trances. Mrs. W<podworth returns £o Kokomo the latter part of '"this week, to oontinue her meetings. She has struck a rich field for labor in Kokomo.— Rochester Sentinel.

A Celebrated Case.

Savi.ek vs. Makeever. On the 10th ult., the Supreme Court reversed the case of Lucius Strong vs. Simon P. Thompson et al, on appeal from the Newton'Circuit Court. Tbs case is better known in this county as “The Savifcr, Makeover road case'’,

and has excited a good deal of interest, especially in Newton township. The subject of the controversy is the two miles of road running west from the east line of l\ewton township, through the farms of John Makeevery the Pancoast farm and dividing a portion of the lands of D. S. Makeover and Jared Benjamin. The west mile of this road has been open to travel since 18.37 and the other mile still longer. It was opened and fenced by the several land owners, as they Supposed, with -the section line for its center; but, as it turned out by a later survey, it varied trom the line going from East to West, so that the West eighty rods was all on the north side of the line and all on the land of D. S. Makeever. After it had becst.cleared graded and bridged by the public and used uninterruptedly for 25-years, the petitioners tilled apedition with .our Board of Commissioners to have the road recorded .with its width equally on either side of the section line as established by the new survey. To this, the road Superintendent of Newtou township, remonstrated and claimed the road as it had been turned out to and improved and used by the public, without regard to artificial laws. S. P. Thompson appeared ter the petitioners and Frank W. Babcock for the township remonstrant. T:»e lio&rd of Commissioners, under the advice of;their county Attorney, held with the petitioners and the townd*ip appealed to the Circuit Court. On motion of the petitioners thfi venue was changed to Newton county, where the case was t ,- ied by ft Jury and a verdict and judgment* for the petitioners. ’There was no dispute that ihe road as contended for by the township, had been, voluntarily turned out hy the ow ners of the soil and that parts of it h.td been converted from an inpassiblu marsh and other obstructions to ha ve it to a good road anti the way user! for 25 years as a public road. The township, by Mr. Babcock its attorney,-ap-pealed to lire Supreme Court and urge j a number of efrofs in tne proceedings of the trial court. ’ , *
