CORRESPONDENCE

: : From Bemlngtra. Mrs. Edward Culp and daughter are seriously and dangerously ill with typhoid fever. Mrs. G. P. Hopkins and Mrs. John Tharp were among the Bomber who went to Indianapolis last Thursday. They report a great crowd and a grand time, Rev. F. Cones preached his farewell address to the congregation of the M. E. church, last Sunday. Mr. Cones is an able and earnest speaker and he will be followed by the good wishes of hosts of friends. Miss Rose Hollingsworth returned from a visit to Ellsworth, 111., last week, much improved in health. The peculiar denomination known as Sanctificationists are holding tent services daily and nightly, with what success your correspondent has not been able to learn.

Rev. W. A. Kearns will close his ministerial labors with the Presbyterian church in this place next Sunday. He will take his departure for Chicago early in the week where he will continue his studies in the McCormick Theological Institute. His work with the church in this place has given general satisfaction. Five new members were added to the church last Sunday. This community was startled and shocked beyond expression last Saturday morning by the report that Mrs, O. W. Church had committed suicide. The report was only too well founded. The unfortunate lady had gone to the barn and in a moment of mental aben ation had placed a rope about her neck and suspended herself to a beam where she was found after life was extinot, by her son Hartley. He immediately gave the alarm and Willis Love, who was working near, ran over and cut her down. Dr. Patton was hastily summoned and restoratives were applied but in vain. The soul was released from the tenement which she had long felt to be in prison. The funeral was held on Sunday afternoon at her late residence conducted by Rev. W. H. Kearns assisted by Rev. Cain, of Goodland. The deceased was a few days more than fiftyone years old and for the past four years had been a consistent member of the Presbyterian church. A large number of neighbors, friends and acquaintances followed the remains to their last resting place.

A Threshing Machine Rurned.

At an early hour, about one or two o’clock, last Saturday morning, the separator of a threshing machine was burned on. Miss Almira Monnetfs ’arm, about a mile and a half east of town, and tenanted by Mr. Dragoo. Besides the separator, there was also burned the straw-stacker and two wagons loaded with oats in the sheaf. The machine was the property of a Mr. Gibbons, of Peru, this state, and was operated by Dare Shepley, assisted by Wm. King and John Daugherty. The machines burned were not new, but in excellent condition. The wagons were the property of neighbors who were assisting in the threshing. It is believed that the fire was the work of incendiaries, and it is asserted that the tracks of two horsemen were plainly perceptible the next morning, leading away from the place. The fires in the engine, it is stated, were drawn at 6 o’clock, on the evening before, so that the fire could not haye originated from the engine. A new machine has already been received to take the place of the one destroyed.

The Teachers’ Institute.

Last Friday witnessed the closing of one of the most successful teachers’ institutes ever held in the county—and that is saying a great deal, for the teachers’ institutes of Jasper county are proverbially successful, of late years, and we think we can safely challenge the whole state to show a county where the teachers’ institutes are more largely attended, in proportion to the whole number of teachers in the couuty, or where the work is pursued with more intelligent and persistent energy, than in Jasper county. In this particular institute the energy and interest, which was the prevailing ieature of the meeting and work, never relaxed for a moment until the final adjournment. On Friday evening "the annual teachers’ re-union was held in the court libuse. A more thoroughly successful and enjoyable entertainment of the kind could not be desired by anyone. Some very interesting and important resolutions, adopted by the institute, previous to adjournment, are published in another place, in this issue of The Republican.

Cholera in Michigan.

Dr. E. D. Larke, of Rogers City Michigan, says tii >j epidemic of last year in Presque Isle county, iu which so many persons lost their lives, was cholera dysentery instead of cholera, as first reported. He used Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and says it succeeded, where all other remedies failed. Not a single case was lo?t in which it was used. This Remedy is the most reliable and most successful medicine known for colic cholera ruorhus, dvsentery diarrhoea and bloody fli.x. 25 and 60 cent bottles for sale by Frank B. Meyer.
