Jacob Ochs is su fie ri u g withan attack of erysipelas. Rev. Dibell, a minister of the Baptist denolaiafition, occupied the pulpit of theM. E. church last Sunday morning, preaching an excellent twfnm?. lie ako held t-orvices-ni-u't. 04‘boa in the afternoon of the SF.iib? day. .Last Saturday was a busy day in town, especially among grain mem At the Hartley elevator and cribs 9960 bushels of corn were taken in. The only drawback is the want of transportation for the immense amount of hay and grain now on hand. Miss Anna Diaper left on Saturday last to take charge of a school in Hanging Grove township. She was teaching the Price school and lacked two weeks of finishing the fall term but the patrons and Trustee kindly released her until next spring. The beautiful cantata, “The Waif’s Christmas,” will be given by the Methodist Sunday school in this place, on Christmas eve., in the audience room of the church.

Will B. Chappell, who left this place for Cumberland Gap, Tenn., a week or two ago, found ready and profitable employment almost as soon as he got there. Remington boys nearly always win and we know that Will will be no exception to that rule. Robert Love and wife left for Kankakee this week for a stay of indefinite length. If the outlook and chances are favorable he may make his future abiding plan in that city. If he does, Kankakee will secure a number one citizen, as Robert is one of our very best young men. Mrs. E. Hollingsworth and Mrs. John Tharp returned last Friday from a very pleasant visit with Mr. and Mrs W. A. Hollingsworth and family,, in Ellsworth, 111. Teachers Institute was well attended last Saturday and the exercises were interesting. Mr. W. H. Shaw is selling a large number of copies of that wonderful book; Stanley’s “Through Darkest Africa”. The Epworth League is growing in numbersand interest among the young people of the M. E. church. It is a grand organization and capable of doing untold and incalculable good. The society of Christian Endeavor, in the Disciples Church is also a noble one and will doubtless do much and lasting good. Dr, Landon’s house is nearly finished and is ope of the handsomest residences in the the county, ’ .
