County Correspondence.

REM ING TON J TEMS. "r Thehe never was a more beautiful s]sriii£ and summer thaitijris has been! The prairie looks “fike the garden of the Lord.” Mr. Will Drake, of Kentland, gives evidence that although he may like all nationalities he prefers the French. -Miss Anna Parker left on Monday to attend the Kentucky State Teachers convention which meets; at Louisville. A team belonging to Scott Russell became frightened at some object last Saturday and started away at a mad rate. The wagon was badly damaged. Dr. and Mrs. S. C. Maxwell entertained a large company -offriends last Saturday afternoon and evening in honor of their sister, Miss Anna Parker. After a delightful supper served in Mrs. Maxwell’s inimitable style, the guests were treated to a creditable display of fire-works by the patriotic doctor.

A little child of Nathaniel Campbell’s had the misfortune to fall and break its arm last Sunday. The extent of the injury was not known until early Monday morning when a messenger was dispatched post haste for a surgeon. Dr. Reigle set the arm and at last account’s the little sufferer was doing well. Another “surprise wedding” took place last Saturday in the capital of the county. The high contracting parties were T. J. Turpin and Miss Belle Nearhoof. Both parties are well known Bnd have the best wishes of hosts of friends. It was a complete surprise, not even the immediate friends of the happy couple being aware of the contemplated union until its consummation last Saturday. Remingtonian.

WALKER ITEMS. Harvesting in full blast. "What will be the name of our new town? Mr. Merrill Tyler and wife; of DeMotte, and Mr. Tom Sayers and wife, of Union, attended meeting here'on Sunday. We feel good over the prospect of our railroad and will haye a fine place for a town. There is a good opening for a lively merchant; the first man will be the best one’ as mostly is the case. Fred Mieser is putting up a fine residence with the help of our mechanical friend and good pitizen, Wm Kennedy. Mr. Mieser, like Mr. Kennedy is. very particular to have all joints correct. The building will be a, credit to those that put it up as well as to the county. The 3rd of July was spent here in happiness. The people of this place met at Hogan school house, in Hilshers Grove and had a fine time, in dancing and other sports; fire-works in first class style, and splendid music by Prof. Hastebinks band. We Germans enjoy 4th of July as well as you Yanks; why shouldn’t we? We are all Americans. Walker sends her voice to Goodland in the person of the Hon. Wm Myers to support our true republican, Hon- St P. Thompson. W alker will support the ticket as it is, and there will be one more new Republican for Walker. On June Ist Mr. Hilsher became a citizen and Hilsher Jr., will before election. O’Connor says that the Germans and Irish can carry any point, if just, and the coming point is just, and will be carried. We had a basket meeting at Hogan schopl house, July 4th; and asthe 4th dame ori the 3rd, the people were tired and sleepy, so the attendance was small. But Elder Shortridge believes in the good book where it says where 2 or 3 have gathered together in my naffie, then I will be also Altogether the congregation'was small. The Elder described Davids throne with all its grandur and he is well able to do so, but he, like Beecher, quits after’ a long discourse and leaves us hungry for more. As a Historian he has no rival. As a preacher few are his equals. As a citizen there is no better, and we feel proud to think that Jasper county produces such a man. Walkerite.

Isaac Parker Killed by a Horse Kick.

On Friday evening, of last week, Isaac Parker, of Hangiiig Grove tp., was leading a young stallion to water, and a number of lather cblta running up, the stallion began to plunge, and kickbd Mr. Parker upon the forehead, over the right eye. He bled terribly and his friends took him up for dead, but it was soon seen th.pt life was not extinct an<i a messenger was sent in haste for Dre. Loughridge and Washburn, of this place. The former was not found and Dr. Alter went with Dr. Washburn. They found the injury very bad, the skull being badly fractured, and the brain having sustained severe concussion. The doctors dressed the wound, and otherwise did what medical skill could do to save the injured man’s life. Sunday Dr. Lougliridge was called into the case, and himself or Dr. Washburn remained constantly at the house. Monday a large number of pieces of the skull were removed from the wound, and for a little while the patient’s condition seemed to improve, but in a little while he began to sink, and at about 8 o'clock in the evening he breathed his last.

Mr. Parker was one of the oldest, best known and most highly esteemed citizens of the county, the wealthiest man in his township, and one of the wealthiest farmers in the county. His age was a little more than 62 years. He leaves a widow and six children. The former is a sister of Mrs. Alfred McCoy, of this town.- The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon, from the family residence.

Graduates of Gillam.

The public schools of Gillam township, will hold their fourth annual graduating exercises, in Independence Chapel, next Saturday evening, July 10. The class is seven in number, the largest we believe, of any that have graduated from the township. Their names are, Ella Hanley, Katie Rodgers, D. C. Prevo, E. Gertrude Robinson, Maud Lewis,- Leis I. Robinson, Chas. W. Hanley. A very attractive programme of exercises for the occasion has been prepared.

Town Board Notes.

The Town Board, at their regular meeting Monday night, ordered that contracts be made with Platt & Reeve for 200 yards of crushed stone; and with the L. N. A. & CRailway for the same quantity of gravel, for use on the streets of the town. The price of the stone is to be SI.OO per yard at the quarry, or $1.25 delivered where wanted; of the gravel, SI.OO per yard, on the side-track. The sidewalk along block 21, on Weston street, fronting the residences of W. B. Austin and J. H. Ellis, was ordered torn up, as was also that on Washington street, along the north side of the Schneider property, opposite the Makeever House.

Prohibition in Massachusetts

Lafayette Call. . t We are indebted to Ira G. Howe, who is spending,a few weeks at his old home in Worcester, Mass., for a copy of the Daily that city, of last Sunday, with an ar tide marked for attention. Worcester is a very strong prohibition city, the temperance law being always strictly enforced- Yet the article referred to by Mr. Howe shows that inside of the seventeen days previous to May 4 last, 6,781 pints of liquor were sold by the druggists of that city. Tl;o average price paid was 75 cents per pint. These figures, as officially reported, show only a small part of the liquor sold in this way in that city, and many a pint and quart were gotten away with, of which no memorandum was ever made. From this it would seem that in Wor tester, at least, prohibition does not prohibit. - .

Not Purely a Mistake.

The Domestic Sewing Machine Company HAVE changed their agency, and C. B. Steward is, and has been, the only recognized agent of the “Domestic” in Rensselaer. Other parties have tried, it is true, to get the agency, and have advertised themselves as such; but I wish the people to know that I am the Sole and Only agent of the /’Domestic” Sewing Machine in Jasper county.

An Important Notice from Mr. Leopold. Owing tp the very dull times and general scarcity of money, prevailing during the past few months, 1 have found it impossible, even at the unparalleled low prices I offered, to sufficiently reduce my very large and excellent stock of winter clothing and other heavy goods, during the present season, to justify me in abandoning my mercantile business, at this time of the year. Thus recognizing the advisability of continuing in business for the present, I have lately Jjeen to Chicago,, and purchased a large and well selected stock of goods suitable for the summer trade; and having bought the same at the very bottom cash prices, and having no expenses for rents and salesmen, 1 am enabled to offer the same at prices which double discount all competitors. Very Respectfully. A. Leopold. Hemphill & for yonr Hats and Caps.
