CORRESPONDENCE.

FROM BEMUIGTON. Dr. Patton’s addition to his residence is about completed. It is now one of the handsomest and most commodions houses in town. The school house is well up in the second story and the work is being rapidly pushed along. Mrs. Frank Rich is on the sick list.

Mr. Esau Hart, who has been an invalid for the past two or three months, is rapidly getting better. Mr. and Mrs. "Walter Gumm returned last week from Marseilles, 111., where they attended the funeral of Mr. Gumm’s father. They were with him during his two or three last dsys. An unpleasantness of a serious nature between Charles McCully and deputy prosecuting attorney Guy, culminated in the serious stabbing of the latter by a knife in the hands of the former. Failing to find the necessary SSOO bond, McCully was conveyed to the bastile at Rensselaer. The Fourth passed off very quietly here, a {Sabbath stillness pervading the place. Walter Rich, of Kankakee, 111., one of Remington’s model young men, spent the glorious Fourth with parents and friends in this place. Dr. Landon’s residence on Ohio street now presents a beautiful appearance, having been painted and decorated in a highly artistic man ner. Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Shefller returned from their bridal tour last week, and are settled comfortably at the Hart House, where they will remain until their new residence is completed. Will Middlesworth, head salesman for the Solomon Brothers of Dubuque, lowa, spent-two or three days with friends in this place. Geo. Chappell who has been spending the past four years in Florida, is expected home this week.

The venerable John L. Smith, P, E. of this district held quarterly meeting services here last Sunday, preaching with hie usual energy and ability both morning and evening. The sacrament was administered to a large number of communicants and two infants received the rite of baptism, namely Bessie June Yeoman and David Merritt McMurray. Mrs. John Morehead left on the early train Monday morning, for Cincinnati and Mrs. C. W> Kirk will leave for the Mercy Hospital, Chicago, next week. Each of these sufferers will have to undergo a dangerous surgical operation and grave fears are entertained for the result —especially in the case of Mrs. Kirk, whose condition is considered very critical. Remingtonian.

A MEMORABLE EVENT. Received too late, last week. On July 2nd at the residence of Simon Kenton mile east of Surrey oecured a pleasant affair long to be remembered by the particiE'anta. The occasion was the irthday of said Simon and a sursrise5 rise was perpetrated upon him. t also was iutended as a kind of family reunion in honor of Mr. Edmund Kenton, of Arizona, who is now here visiting relatives and friends. In the morning the Kenton brothers were decoyed by designing persons out to the Thompson oil and gas well, and upon returning found the premises in the possession of a most determined mob, of about 150 persons, of all sexes and ages. The two descendants of the celebrated Indian fighter seeing that resistance was entirely hopeless, came forward and with remarkable coolness gave themselves up; At first it was feared by the leaders of the mob that Simon, who was both bootless and coatless, would upon first alarm take to his heels, m which event they knew he, being exceptionally fleet of foot, must certainly escape. Cut happily the smell of cake and roast chicken so entirely upset his equilibium that he fell an easy prey. After the capture a council was held to determine in what manner the prisoners should he put to death. It was finally decided that death should be inflicted by the stuffing process. When informed that they must die in this manner they seemed rather to rejoice and each exclaimed in the words of the lamented Hale, “I regret that I have but one life to lay down in this manner." " Accordingly the execution immediately began and at this writing, (5 p. m.), the doomed men are still alive and are bearing up with remarkable fortitude. At times they are heard to murmer, “There is an aching void this

world can never fill.” Should any change occur in their condition your correspondent will notify you at once. The mob, as before stated consisted of. about 150 persons; 60 of whom were direct decendants of the Kenton family. The eldest being Mrs. Nancy Smith of Barkley tp., aged 73 years. There were present six of the eight living children of Mr. and Mrs. John C. Kenton, deceased, viz: Edmund Kenton, Simon Kenton, Mrs Addison Parkison, Mrs. Joseph Parkison, Wm. Kenton and Jasper Kenton together with 24 grandchildren and 16 great-grand children. A sumptuous dinner, with game and song and genial conversation whiled away the merry

We Think this Letter is Genuine.

Mb. Editor:— Noticing in your paper last week an article concerning the “gum contest” at your place, also of the letter to which my name in part was attached, hllow me through the medium of your paper to state to the public, that I emphatically deny the little insignificant act of writing such a small, worthless missive. Besides, I am not at all acquainted with the gentleman to whom it was written. The letter is decidedly a forged one. and I do place those most inconsistent persons below the dignity of gentlemen,, and should be considered as such. Is it not a warning to our bankers and other persons of business to be careful and watchful of such individuals? Not only have they tried to lower my standard in the eyes of the people, but have violated our law in the most degrading manner, that of forgery. May our meddlesome people find other employment in the future, than trying to lower those whom they have no right. Let us in the name of our civilization, try and promote the principles of morality in our community, as well as in all others, for we do greatly feel its need, and urge the people to that effect.

MATIE BEBOUT,

THE TOWN BOARD.

A petition for a new and sufficient sewer to run along the north side of Washington street from the river to Weston street, and then crossing the intersection of Washington and Weston streets, diagonally, and then running 200 feet along the south side of Washington, was laid before the Board but its consideration was postponed for one month. The question of electric lights for the streets was also laid over for another month.

Sealed bids for furnishing material and constructing the culvert for Makemself ditch at the end of Front street were received as follows: J. M. Ilodshire, for stone culvert, $595; for brick culvert $575; Lewis Day, stone $875; brick SBOO. Chas Borntreager, stone $895; brick $825. The contract was awarded to Mr. Day, and the work is to be completed by Sept. Ist, next. An ordinance was adopted requiring all dogs running at large in the town to be muzzled, during the months of July, August and September;

Death of Mrs. V. E. Loughridge.

A sad and sudden occurrence was the death, last Tuesday morning, about 8 o’clock, of heart disease, of Mrs. AUie Barnum Loughridge, wife of Doctor Victor E. Loughridge. Her age was only 23 years, 5 months and twenty-four day and she was married to Dr. Loughridge October 10, last, at the residence of her parents in LaPorte, this state. She gave birth to a daughter on Sunday, after which time she remained in an unconscious condition, from heart fail are, until her death. The infant is apparently healthy, and with fair prospects for living. The deceased was a most estimable lady, whose many excellent qualities had endeared her to a large circle of friends, during her brief residence in this place. Her death is a sad blow to her young hnsband, who has the earnest sympathy of all, in his deep affliction. The fmfbral was held yesterday afternoon, the principal services taking place at Wear on cemetery, where interment was made. Rev. M. L. Tresaler conducted the religious services.

Mr. E. Slattery, of Delphi, La., says her son, 14 years of .age, had a dreadful time with ulcers, sores and blotches which followed chicken pox. After using many remedies without benefit, she gave him Swift’s Specific which cured him sound and well. We have sold S. S. S. since the first day we commenced the drug business, and have heard some wonderful reports of its effects. Many use it with the best results to cleanse malaria from the system, and for blood poison, scrofula and such diseases it is without a rival.

I have been subject to painful boils and carbuncles over my body daring the spring season, and after much suffering and useless doctoring I found a permanent care in Swift’s Specific. It is the monarch of blood medicines. E. J. Willis, Augusta, Ark.
