REMINGTON ITEMS.

There was a full choir at the M. E. church last Sunday morning and the music was exceptionally fine. Miss Laura Parks, the organist, played with her usual skill and expression, and the pieces, especially the anthems, were well selected, and well rendered. Prof. Dickerson is leader, ably assisted by H, H. Walker and the other members of the choir. Mrs. Elizabeth Coover is still very sick, no change being perceptible in her condition. Mr. M. Hopkins and wife of Rensselaer spent Sunday last with the family of C. P. Hopkins. Remington gladly adds j two more to the list of young men who Fave gone forth to do godd in the world. We refer to Homer Dibell who received such a flattering mention in the last Republican, and Elmer E. Snoddy, who has become one of the watchmen on the walls of Zion. Little Sallie, the bright little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Tom Turpin, has been very low during the. past week with erysipelas and at this writing (Tuesday) is still in a precarious condition. Rev. E. B. Woodson was called to Brookston last week by the dangerous illness of a friend and former parishioner. Mrs. Thomas Ralph, of St. Louis, is visiting his parents and many friends in this place. Our young friend, Robert Jjove, has a position in the Infirmary connected with the Insane Asylum at Kankakee, 111. Mr. and Mrs. James Parks were called to Keptland, last week, by the sickness of their daughter Mrs. Charles Balcom.
