Alexander Hamilton has concluded to become a citizen of Wheatfieid. He has abandoned j the idea of going west, at least for ! j the coming summer. The people are making slight i improvements in the town. J. A. Hollett erected an addition to his , store building last Saturday. All i completed in one day’s work from the rude material. Teachers institute was held at the Wheatfieid school house last Saturday. This was the last institute for W heatfieid for the pres- j ent school year, and W 6 trust it! Avas a profitable as well as an • interesting institute, for the teachers present. Hon. I. D. Dunn was visiting tbe people ot Wheatfieid last Friday. He has conceived the idea that there is coal to be found in the northern part of tli9 county, and is anxious that a company bo formed, shares purchased and an attempt be made to prove this theory.

Some of the ydung men of the town have formed an alliance for the study of the scriptures and for advancement in the Christian life; ; aI. SC C. A. on a small scale, as it Avere. The boys and young men engaged in the work Avill doubtless make noble men and. do much good in their day anil generation.— Remingtonun. ; v ' —— GILLAM CHAT. Miss-Bell Davis is visiting friends in Gillam. i Miss 11. M. Oshorne is on the sick list> but is convalescing, and

we hope will be able to be in the school room soon again. Mr. D. H. Guild, of Hagerstown, Ind., made a Hying visit through Gillam a week ago. We presume he Was on business, as he stopped at “Squire Conards.” Messrs. D. B. Coppess, D. W, Hunt, D. C. Prevo, F. W. Osborne. Misses Lizzie Faris and Eva Rayburn, are at home, their schools having closed week before last, Mrs. Lark Potts died Tuesday i night, March 15. The funeral itook place Wednesday afternoon, |at Independence Chapel. The services were conducted by Rev. : Webb ; Ms. Charlie Odom is a happy 1 man. To his surprise and that of his friends, lie has recovered from a severe attack of lung fever. Dr. A ; G. Jones, of Medaryville, was ! his physician. j Mr. A. G. Robb, jr., who has 1 been telegraph operator at Jamesport, Mo,, tor the past three years, is expected home soon. He thinks 1 a change will be a rest, and intends i farming this summer. Last Thursday morning while G. D. Prevo was building a fire in his school house, his horse broke loose, taking the rail to which it ! was tied with it, ran through a wire fence. It was pretty badly hurt, but at last accounts was doj ing well. - t Mr. C. F. Querry, who was kicked by a horse, about five or six weeks ago, causing a bad gash in his right cheek and a broken jaw, is slowly . recovering. Charlie had a pretty close call. Mr. G. D. Prevo got a kick, too, last Saturday week. Not so serious as the above, but enough to cause him to limp some. Our railroads make poor connections, so thought Miss D——, when she came to San- Pierre on the “Three I” road last Wednesday, and found the train she wanted had gone and she could stay there twenty-four hours or take a “tie ticket.” She choose the latter and about 3 o’clock p. m. walked into Medaryville, a distance of eight miles in three hours. Medaryville is said to have the whooping cough and measles. Gillam nas something more fatal than either of these. There has been a case once in a while all winter, but during the past month, at least ten of our young (?) folks have become its victims and a great many others have shown symptons which we fear will pyove fatal. One young man had suffered under these symptons for six.years or more. At last he concluded to go west. He bid bis friends adieu and started for Sioux City, lowa, but when he got to Wanatah he took the other end of the road and went to Pensylvania and met his fate. Learned men pronounce this great plague “matrimony.” Just after the funeral of Mrs. Potts,, at Independence, Wedues’day afternoop, the Sexton’s wife was sweeping the church and getting it in readiness for singing that night when she was startled by a crashing noise abqve her, and looking up saw the ceiling lowering. She ran to the school house end gave the alarm. The news spread and the trustees and other official members met to investigate and found the stays supporting the chimney had given away, tire chimney breaking loose at the roof, had come with its whole weight on the center of the ceiling, causing it to lower three or four feet. At first it was feared the walls would spread and the whole building collapse, but carpenter Linton was Called, and after removing the chimney, succeeded in raising the ceiling to its proper height, and strengthened it with, iron bolts until it is considered strongrr than before. The chimney will be rebuilt, the ceiling replastered, and the woodwood repainted before it is ready for use. Until this is done, "services will be held in the school house.

The Monon Faster.

The papers still find Mary Baker, the White county faster, ah interesting subject of discussion. With the exception of a few mouthsful of- nourishment taken two weeks ago, the girl has not swallowed food for 102 days. The report that she had lost but little flesh is untrue. She ia reduced to a skeleton, and the skin on her stomach lays flat on her backbone. What life is now feeding on is puzzling the physician more than the mystery of tbe past. She is able to conA’erse in a low tone of voice, and her mind is as clear as it avrs before she Avaß taken down. She talks of her condition, ami is confident she will not die. _You can buy a set of Lustre Band ware of Laßue Bros, cheaper than any place in Jasper county- i
