We are glad to chronicle the fact that the condition of Mrs. Stiller is improving. She is now able to ride Out when the weather is pleasant. Mrs. Morehead, who has been an invalid for a long time, is alto getting a little better. O. M. Yickeiy’s spirited team became frightened last Thursday and it looked for about a minute as though there would be a bad runaway, but Mr. Vickery" was equal to the occasion and stopped them before any serious damage resulted.

Mr. Forbes and family will shnke the dust of Remington front their feet this week, and return to their former home in Chicago. The young people will be missed in the social circles of our village. Finley Forbes will probably continue iu business h9re. Rev. Cooper, of the Christian church, is hard at work ou the grouuds of his new home, the Dr. Maxwell property, near town. Under the well known taste and busy hands of Dr. and Mrs. Maxwell it was once a beautiful place, in fact, it still is, though showing, many signs of neglect.

The election passed off quietly and satisfactorily last Monday, resulting in the re-election of G. 13. .Clark as Town Clerk and E. Hollingsworth as Marshal.

The Merchants’ Carnival given by the public schools, under thy excellent management of Prof, and Mr. Dickerson, assisted by Mrs. Coover and Mr. bait his, was one of the best entertainments ever given in Remington. The costumes of the ladies who represented the .various uindi, of business, were tasty in the extreme. Even bologna s tUsage was made a tiling of beauty, whe n arranged in an ar- i tistic manner. Tire music, both | vocal and- i&afctumeutal. was fully ! up to the standard of that found; in larger and more pretentious! places; in fact "Remington lias , reason to be proud of her musical ! talent. The iudicrons-costumes of j ..“Gideons hand,” their droll per- | formanc.es nndfinesinging brought down the house. The best [•art of the entertainment, though, was the rush and crowd that poured in at the door, and the money that accumulated on the ticket-sellers table. Over one hundred dollars were taken m and $83:92 remained in the treasury after ail expenses were paid! Rkmingtonian.
