From Remington.

The new machinery at the sand pit is working very satisfactorily. Noith Ohio street is being improved by a thick layer of gravel 12 feet wide. Mr. W. B. Price, Sen., left on Monday for Ohio, on a trip of business and pleasure combined. Although the sufferings of Mrs. McMurray are not quite as severe as they were her condition is hopeless. In fact her death is daily apprehended. Hon. Titus E. Price, well and most favorably known in this place and vicinity returned to his home in Highmore, S. D. last Thursday, after a short but pleasant visit with his father’s family and many friends. The first meeting of the C. L. S. C. for the coming wiuter, was held on Friday evening of last week at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Parker. These meetings are full of interest as any one can fully prove by going to Mr. Parkers some Friday evening after the circle is fairly /b tar ted. A number of leading Odd Fellows accepted an invitation sent by the I. O. O. F., of Rensselaer to to the Lodge at this place, to attend an installation of officers. Those who attended are warm in their praises of the hospitality of the Rensselaer brethern of the mystic tie. They report an elaborate supper, interesting ceremonies and a good time generally, for all of which they most heartily return thanks. The Knights of Pythias are indebted to their newly received member Simon Leopold for one of the finest “spreads” ever served up in Remington. After the initiation ceremonies, which lasted until nearly midnight, those present were invited down to Peffleys restaurant where ajfeast fit for old Epicurus himself, was served up. It is perhaps superfluous to say that the brethren did ample justice to the viands set before them. Remingtonian.
