Mrs. Emma MoConahay of Aurora, 111., is visiting friends in our vicinity. Mrs. Wm. Hanley and daughter Ella are visiting friends and attending camp-meeting at this place. Mr Benfcly Brick of Chicago, is making a visit with his sister, Mrs. Haas, but his visiting seems to be mostly at Mr. RathfoD’s. Mrs. Sallie Cloud, of lowa, and Mrs. Robinson of Haas City, Kansas, were called home last week to the bed-side of their sick mother, Mrs. John Robinson, who is in a very critical condition. At present writing, (Monday), she is some better and we earnestly hope will finally recover. Mis. Ida McUreedy, one of Chicago’s teachers, in company with her mother, Mrs. McCready, of New York City, are the guests of Miss. Laura Rathfon. All of the Gil lam Normalites made a brief visit to their homes on Saturday and Sunday last and attended the closing services of the camp-meeting.

We are glad to say that Rensselaer was very well represented at campmeeting on Sunday last The glorious camp-meeting which has been in session dating the past ten days closed on Sunday evening. The principal workers were Rev. Hatfield, Rev. Thomas Guild and wife and Rev. D. H. Guild assisted by Revs. Moore and Sebring. Rev. Hatfield is from Charlottsville, this state, and is one of the leading evangelists. He has labored under nearly all of the noted evangelists of our country, Moody, Jones, Small and others, and has had a great deal of experience in religious work. The meeting was very well attended considering the bnsy season. The attendance on last Sunday was the largest ever known to assemble in Gillam; the crowd was estimated from a thousand to twelve hnndred people. The meeting was in eveiy respect a success. The church has been revived and many souls have been led into the light. Mr. Jas. Conard received a dispatch Monday morning stating that his mother was in a dying condition. He took leave on the morning train, to visit his old home in Ohio. Raka Avis.

It always gives us pleasure to record the success of a youngman, especially so if he happens to belong to Jasper county. TheWitchita Daily Eagle gives a highly eulogistic account of the re-nom-ination by acclamation of Hon. F. C. Price as judge of that judicial district, saying among other things that “the speech of acceptance made by the handsome young man was one of the best ever heard in that city.” We predict a brilliant future for our young friend and statesman, Clark Price. Edward Randle and Misses Mary Chilcote and Nellie Moss spent Sunday last, in Remington the guests of Miss Mabel Hopkins.

Good weather prevails after the many rains. The oom fields look spotted,, wheat light, bat oats and rye are good. Tame meadows “turned off” well.

The large rainfall gave us an unusually large crop of blackberries. Lightning killed a calf for David Mitchell and struck John Stibbs’ house, demolishing the chimney and doing some other damage. The hum of the thresher is heard in the land. The new Wild Lily is almost completed. The Trustee has engaged the teachers for the winter schools.

Many presents were bestowed. Three large tables groaned under the weight of eatables from every clime. Ninety relatives and friends were present and all went merry as a marriage bell.

The Bargain Store Hits Back.

The article in last week’s issue signed “The Other Fellows” represented that B. Forsythe, of the Chicago Bargain Store, “does not pay taxes or did not sell goods on from 3 to 12 month’s credit,” and “a word to the wise is sufficient” We pay taxes the same as onr neighbors, and any one is welcome to see tax receipt on present stock by asking us for it.

Thanks, gentlemen, for informing the public of the secret where the shoe pinches, by “by selling goods on credit,” as Hie enlightened people of this community know “credit” means just 25 to 50 per cent, more than our cash prices, which means just 25 to 50 per cent, less than my competitors, and the customers who psy cash at the credit stores pay the same prices as the one who huys on time, as he pays for some bad debts contracted by the credit merchant. Again, “A word to the wise is sufficient” The above threat may be a necessity for “The Other Fellows” but not for the one who sells for cash. CHrciao Bargain Store.

„ - _ - ly shocked, yesterday morning, to hear that the well known citizen, Alfred McCoy, hadjteen badly hurt by the kick off a horafc While at his Jordan tp., farm, very, early in the morning, showing some stock to a buyer, a very laige 4 year-old colt, whose approach he had not noticed, suddenly wheeled and kicked him in the fjiee. The kick seemed to have fallen with full force, knocking him down and cutting and bruising his face in a dreadful manner. It afco' broke badly the upper jaw-bone, directly under the nose. He was immediately put into a spring wagon, aud brought to lns home, a distance of 7 or 8 miles, and bleeding profnsly all the way and until long after his arrival home. Dre. Loughridge and Bitters were called and worked over tiie injured man nearly the whole day. As we go to press, (Wednesday afternoon), his physicians report his condition as very critical, as owing to’Qie great loss of blood and a weak and diseased condition of his heart, the process of reaction from the shock was dangerously delaying its appearance. His daughter, Mrs. Rinehart, has been telegraphed to, at Buffalo, and will arrive at the earliest possible moment.
