CORRESPONDENCE

*”'From DeMotte. The sudden changes in the weather are causing much sickness, especially colds among children. - Joseph S. Hartley was thrown from an overturning load of hay and sustained injuries in his head and back which confined him to his bed for a few days. No material change in the condition of the sick people reported before. Mrs. Chapman is also very sick with typhoid fever. Jay Spencer, engineer on the Three I. and' junior partner in Speroar Bros’, store, is.home on. sick leave. J. P. Fairchild returned to Chicago Monday, to continue treatment in a medical institution there.

A few of the young people amused themselves at a, dance at the Town Hall, Friday evening of last week. We understand a new hall is to be built during the coming season. A traveling lecturer and “all around man” gave,an entertainment at the school house on Monday evening. He gave some very interesting features of Indian life and their connections in the late trouble. The series of meetings closed on last Wednesday evening, having resulted in 14 accessions to the church. Our good people have concluded that it is time to build a church and have enough subscribed to warrant its success, and work will begin as soon as spring opens

From Hogan. The G. A. R. Camp Fire was well attended but the supper was almost a failure owing io the scarcity of baskets. The old soldiers are to blame as they told the people of this place tw ice before that that they would be here, and our people thought that this would be, like former ones, a disappointment;. Wm. Hanley has now one of those long eared critters known in the west and southwest as the Jack Rabbit. The same gentleman is known in Europe as the Hare. Frank Russel is putting new and improved machinery in the mill at Hogan. Dora, youngest daughter of Wm. Kennedy, has been very low with intermittent fever, but now she is able to sit up a little. On of the Sir-William goats, of this town is dead. Whether it was a political death dr died for the want of gas, we do not know. However the Hanley boys will miss the goat. The hay cutting season is over with now. We understand that Rose Lawn and DeMotte are trying to see which can secure the creamery. What is the matter with Moonshine and her supply of natural gas? Joseph Tanner, late of this place, but now a citizen of Chicago, made a short visit here. We understand he is about to sell his farm here.

Oar trustee is doing what ought to have beeibdone before in this and other townships, putting outside shutters on the school houses. Public property is not always looked after by the proper officers. It is a common thing to see in almost any township the school houses with the doors and windows epen and broken. As we see our shadow we will crawl into our hole and pull it in after us. Hoganitb.

From Remington. Milton Kensall living with Mr. John Parks was not injured as badly as at first supposed. He is now able to attend to his customary duties. John Kearney, formerly of this vicinity but more recently of Sheldon, dropped dead of heart disease last Wednesday, The remains were brought here for interment. After services at the Catholic church, conducted by Mr. Hellhake a large number of sympathizing friends followed him to his last resting place. A private letter from a friend in Fort Wayne informs us that John M. Crowe is meeting with excellent success in his school in that city. We are pleased but not suprised to hear it, as the Crowe brothers are young men of far more than ordinary ability. Thomas, only son of Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Sheets was instantly killed at Hammond last Thursday morning by falling under a car loaded with coal. He was in the employ of the Monon R. R. Co., at that place and owing to a broken brake the car he was on ran with frightful speed down an inclined plane nearly 200 feet long, colliding with another car and throwing the unfortunate young man beneath the wheels of the car, from which he fell. The wheels passed over his chest and probably he never felt a pang as he was no doubt unconcious from the fall. He was 18 years and 19 days old. The remains were brought to the home of his parents in this place but afterwards taken to Burnettsville for interment. A number of young friends with whom he used to play base ball procured a handsome floral tribute from Logansport and accompanied the family on their sad journey to Burnettsville as also did a number of the members of the G. A. R. Post of which Mr.

is a,member. The family will move to Hammond' this week and they! take with them the heart felt sympathy of the entire community. Mr, and Mrs. James Zea met with a great and irreparable loss in the death of their only child, ar bright and active little boy who would have been ten years old had he lived until the fourteenth of the present month. He died Tuesday Jan., 27th, after a very painful illness. He was suffering with an internal abscess and as a last resort ■it was decided by the attending physicians Landon or of this place, Lovett and Hatch of Goodland, to perform a surgical opertion. Everything that money, affection or skill could devise was done for little George but in vain. The little life ebbed out within a few hours after the operation. The funeral took place from the Christian Church Thursday afternonn, conducted by Elder Cooper. An unusually large congregation was present including many friends from other places. Mr. and Mrs. Zea have the sympathy of hosts of friends in this time of sorrow. Miss Gertie Green is still quite sick at the home of Mr. and Mrs. E. Commons. Mrs. Tuttle is seriously sick at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Moses Bradock. Messrs John Tharp, Ezra Bowman and George Hemphill went to Chicago last week. The first named gentleman is making preparations to move there in the near future. Mrs Bartlett who has been sick for several weeks is still in a critical condition.

Messrs Ream and Shearer went to Marion last week on business. We understand that Mr. Shearer has dis posed of his property in this place and expects soon to move to Marion. Work on the creamery will begin very soon. The committee selected a site at the North end of Ohio Street which is Conceded by all interested to be a very good location. Mr. Alvin Vineyard of Anderson spent a few days of last week with his relatives, E. Hollingsworth and family. The meetings at the M. E. Church still continue with gratifying results. Rev. J. Foster of the Presbyterian Church occasionally lends valuable assistance in the meetings. Miss Winnie Draper returned last Friday from an extended visit with her sister and other friends in Hartford City. Mrs. Parker spent a week at the capital with her husband Hon. Robert Parker. Our veteran merchant J. E. Stiller is about to make a new departure in the way of business. He is fitting up the south room of the store and intends putting into it one of the finest stock of groceries ever brought to Remington. His son Bert will have charge of it, his faithful clerk, Homer Hardy of the other room and Mr. Stiller will oversee both rooms.

Card of Thanks.

To my many friends and customers of the past in Jasper and adjoining counties: I take pleasure iu saying to you all, that I am thankful to you for your patronage during these years that are gone, and as I have concluded to retire from the line of business that has heretofore So much interested the farming people of this country, I want you to know that I appreciate your favors of the past, and your staying qualities in spite of the penurious ridicule that one or two of my competitors have seen fit to blow out as an adder would its venom. I also want to bespeak your favors for Mr. C. G. & J. P. Hammond, the gentlemen that succeeds me in this business. I expect to give them my assistance for quite a while and I hope you will give them as liberal a portion of your trade as

me.
