The house of Joseph Anderson was burned Sunday night Nov. 20, between the hours of 11 one 1 o’clock. ?His son on waking in the night discovered the fire and immediately gave the alarm, but the fire had such a start they could only get a few things out of the house and within 15 minutes after the boy first saw the fire, the roof and timbers of the house had fallen to the ground. The house was insured for S6OO, Mr, Anderson and his estimable family moved to Hanging Grove about a year ago. He is a splendid mechanic both as a blacksmith and a wood workman.

REMINGTON ITEMS.

The long sickness of Mrs. Sarah Eckels terminated fatally on Sunday night. .She had been confined to her bed for more than a year, and death must have been to her a “sweet release.” The funeral took place Wednesday morning frem the Presbyterian church, of which aba was a member. N otwit hstanding the inclemency of the'weather a large congregtttion assembled in the M. E. church last Sunday afternoon, the occas*- j ion being the memorial service ! held for Mr. H. N. Alexander, of j whose sickness and departure from 1 Kehnngtcn, hiention was made in ’ onr letter of last week. He died I at the home of his brother in Pern-1 berville, 0., on Wednesday after-1 noon, agQd twenty-two. It is sei- 1 dom in this day and age that a young man like Mr. Alexander is met-urbane and kind and thoughtful, with the polish and address that usually comes with long years of companionship with the world’s best people. Short but touching eulogies were delivered by Prof. Dickerson and Rev. E. B. W oodson. The choir which had been under his leadership for the past two or three months, rendered three or four beautiful selections which had been favorites with the dead teacher, Mr. and Mrs . Peck and 1 illl e daughter, of St. Johnsbury, Vt.. are tile guests of their cousins, the Phelps brothers and their families.. Dr. Maxwell’s frisky team ran away again last Tuesday, upsetting the buggy and landing the disciple of Esculapius the stones by the wayside, Fortunately, except some bad bruises, he escaped uninjured. Mrs. Maxwell is just recovering from the ellecis of a similar accident. Norris Bull, a worthy farmer i living three miles southeast or town, met with an accident last Friday, which nearly cost him his life. He was at work in a well 15 deepr-when his son, who was assisting him, inadvertantly let a rock, weighing about 75 pounds, fall upon him. He was in a stooping position and received the' rock on his back. At last accounts the injured man was resting easy. Ex-Sheriff Powell, of Rensselaer, was in town Monday. • The pastor of the Christian church in Valparaiso, x. ill visit his friends, Win. Rich and family, early in December and while here will deliver a lecture on temperance, in Exchange Hall, on Thursday evening, Dec. 8. Rev. A. F. Armstrong, pastor of the Christian church in this place, for the. past year or more, is about to change his location. Wherever he may go he will bear with Him the best wishes of many friends here, regardless of creed. Rev. E. B. Woodson is visiting 11 iends in Delphi thisweek. Remingtokian.

The following particulars regarding a fatal accident on the 0. <t I. C- Railroad,’last week, are from the Goodland Herald: On Monday forenoon, Louis Brooks and Patrick Sullivan, employes on the Foresman section of the Coal Road, had walked over the section as far as Julian and were returning, when, suddenly they were both knocked from the track. Mr. Brooks being badly hurt, and Mr. Sullivan killed. The snow plow had gone north over the road in the morning and was returning. It seems that Mr. Brooks and Mr. Sullivan were walking in the middle of the track having no knowledge of any train of any train on the road. Mr. Brooks says that tljey knew nothing of the approaching plow until they heard the rails singing. He looked around and at that instant was hurled through the air to the side of the road. Mr. Brooks was badly hurt but will recover. Mr. Sullivan was horribly mangled, his head being crushed and his brains scattered about in a shocking ami sickening manner. A widow and one child are left to mourn his loss. The remains were brought to Goodland and hurried in the cemetery north of town Tuesday.
