Saturday Detective James K. Hill received $25 for capturing at Remington, a man wanted at Rensselaer on the charge of assault and battery with attempt to kill. He put the money in his vest pocket, which proved to be bottomlessj ’and thought no more about it until he went to pay his hotel bill wheuhe discovered its absence. He searched everywhere but failed to find the missing money. —Lafayette Courier. There are one or two slight inaccuracies in the above item. The man was captured in Remington at.'the time mentioned, but Mr. Hill did not get the $25 reward for the simple reasons that not only was there no reward offered, but Mr. Hill had nothing whatever to do with the capture. The statement about the empty pocket, and unpaid hotel*bill, bear the impress of truth and we make no effort to dispute their correctness. ‘ The Rev. R. C. Mcßeynolds re turned from conference Tuesday evening. Mr. Handley will not return until next week. From Mr. Mcßeynolds we get a few points regarding the work of the conference. Mr. Handley has been sent back to Rensselaer for another year, but Mr. Mcßeynolds is sent to Foresman circuit, in Newton county. Mr. Mcßeynolds was unable to g've us the name of, the minister who is to succeed him iu charge of Rensselaer circuit. A new district was established in the conference, with Valparaiso as its headquarters, and to be known as the Valparaiso district. Jasper county still remains in the’Lafayette district, but Newton county is attached to the new one. The venerable John L. Smith, D. D., is presiding elder of the new district The earthquake of Tuesday night, of last week, which wrought such desolation in Charleston and other South Carolina cities was felt in a much lighter degree over the whole country as far west as the Mississippi river. In this state the shock was generally too slight io be perceptible except to people in the upper stories of high brick or stone buildings. That it occured in Jasper county there is no question. Tn the northern -part of the county a reputable gentlemen was sitting by his table reading at a few minutes past nine o’clock (just the time of its occurence in this state) and he noticed such a violent shaking and rattling of the upper story of his house that he thought thai fiis boys were racing about at a great rate, up stairs. Investigation showed that they were sound asleep, however, and the gentleman is now firmly ~convmced that the rattling was the result of the earthquake. In Rensselaer the only evidence of the* occurence of the quakeiso far as we have learned is sbmeihing that happened at the court house. A lecture was in progress there and the room was -e+ewtUdr-- At- two—or-three_mim. utes past nine, just Hie time of the eaTTbqup.ke, a heavy window, v.diich beioiA had been immovable, fell in its casing of-“-its _ own weight, with a crash that startled the entiro audience.’- There question but what this was the result oi tin' 'quivering-.of-Vh^bwilding c;ais! .l b\- the earthquake.

BETTER and BETTER.
The Biggest and Best Fair ever held in Rensselaer The most sanguine predictions for a good fair in Rensselaer this year have been more than realized. In excellence and extent of exhibits —in all in fact that makes a good fair—it is, undoubtedly, by far the best ever held on the grounds. AU divisions and departments are well represented, but in the most important departments of all, fine live stock the exhibits are large and excellent, beyond expectation. Want of time forbids us giving any detailed account of the principal features of the various exhibits, and a cursory and hurried mention of a few of the most striking features is all that we shall attempt this week. In the department of horned cattle is the, strongest point of the fair. Foremost ot exhibitors in this line are A. McCoy, Son & Rinehart, of Rensselaer,, with their spbmdid drove of Herefords from their Hanging Grove herd. This consists of three fine thoroughbred bulls, 7 or 8 thoroughbred cows, several of which are imported, a large number of calves and a large number of common stock cows with half-blood Hereford calves by their sides, This herd is all exhibited m new sheds and yards of Mr. McCoy’s own construction. Next in size comes Alkire's splendid herd of prize short-horns, from Brookston. This herd consists of a noble big bull, four or five cows and seyera! calves. Many ot .er fine animals, of these .and other breeds are exhibited, but which we can not now name in detail. The horse show is also unusual;ly full, in all divisions. The enterprising and successful horsemen of Remington make an especially large display, both of heavy draft.horses and horses for speed. All other parts of the county are also represented in the horse department, as a fuller account next" week will show. In the swine and sheep departments the entries are so numerous that it has been found necessary to fill the pens to double their intended capacity. In sheep John C. Porter, of Carpenter tp., is by far, the most extensive exhibitor, and he also has many fine pigs in the pens. Mr. Locke, of Remington, also shows a fine lot of swine, as do‘ also many others whose names we can not give it this time. The machinery exhibit is also good this year, affording a gratifying contrast with the empty sheds of last year. In the department of poultry and birds there is also a very satisfactory exhibit, and many coops full of fine specimens of the feathered race. The display in Floral Hall is always one of the very strongest points of the Jasper county fair, and this year is nojexpection to the general rule. . There is a bewild"eringly profuse display of beautiful and artistic specimens of ladies needle-work &c, and in the corner devoted to paintings of various kinds there is a more -than_nn.usually good display. As we go to press before any of the races take place we can only predict from the number and character of the entries that they JwilJ be in keeping with excellence of the fair.
