CORRESPONDENCE.

From Remington. Mr. Taylor, of Chimera, spent Saturday and Sunday in Remington, the guest of Miss Jennie ReaL Mr. J. E. Hollett went to Greencastle last Saturday for a short visit with his daughter, Miss Flora, who is a student in DePiuw William Rich’s new feed store ’ will soon be finished, notwithstanding the fact that the elements were against him; the building having collapsed during one of the heavy storms of last week. -i

Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Y. Smith, of Eokomo, spent Sunday and in Remington, the guests of Mr. and Mrs. M. Elliott. The new machinery recently put in by Mr. Smith, at the sand works, is said to be doing excellent Work; of which he may well be proud, as the design was evolved from his own fertile brain,

About forty persons, most of them members of the L I. O. F. attended the funeral of Mr. Bunnell, at Wolcott, last Sunday. The funeral was said to be the largest one ever held in White county. The tragic death of the unfortunate man added to the solemn interest. The widow of the still more unfortunate Mr. Ferrick, and her children seemed overwhelmed with grief, and both families so suddenly and cruelly bereft have the sympathy of all Mr. E. J. Kirk, an aged citizen of this place, died at his home on Ohio street, last Friday morning at 9 o’clock. The funeral took place from the house Sunday afternoon at two o’clock, Re v. J . H. Worrall officiating, after which the remains were interred in the Remington cemetery. Deceased was about eighty years old and had been a resident of the town for many years.

There will be an entertainment given in Durand Hall, on Thursday evening May 7th, which the music loving people of Rensselaer will do well to attend, if the roads are in good condition. Some of our best singers will take part in the exercises, which will be pleasantly interspersed with beautiful tableaux. It is given as a benefit to our talented young “basso profundi” Mr. Frank Hardy, who expects to enter some good school this fall, where his splendid voice may receive scientific training. In all probability our young friend, m years to come, will find both fame and fortune, at least that is the heartfelt wish of his many fiiends. Remingtonian.

Our Navy. Hertofore British naval authorities have been worried over the possibilities of the French navy, but British experts who have been comparing the latest and best French war ships with our ship, the Newark, have reported that the latter is the more effective cruiser, while the triple-screw cruiser now nicknamed the I’irate is a source of special alarm to them. It is believed that she will out-run the fastest ocean stamships and will probably be the best cruiser in the world. But those Anglomaniac newspapers which, eight years ago, predicted that an effective war ship could not be built in this country are silent. —Indianapolis Journal. C. C.

’■ , ' f Carl Malchow, whose sickness has previosuly been mentioned, died last Wednesday afternoon, at the’ home of his father, about 5 miles southwest of town/ He had been seriously siek only a few months, although more or less ailing ever since having an attack of 4he grip a year ago. He was a member in good standing of the Rensselaer Lodge, Knights of Pythias; and his funeral, which was at the residence Friday forenoon, was conducted by the lodge, after the solemn and impressive ceremonial prescribed for such occasions. Rev. B. F. Ferguson conducted toe religious services. Interment was made in Crockett cemetery. The funeral was attended by a very large concourse of friends and neighbors. The very large funeral procession to the cemetery was headed by the Rensselaer Band, playing appropriate music and directly following march-' ed a detachment of some 25 or 30 members of toe lodgejabove mentioned, in partial uniform. The deceased was married on election day, last fall, to Miss Lucy Sheilds. He was born in LaPorte County, this state, Mar., 6th, 1365, his age being therefore, 26 years, 1 month and 17 days.

Emmet Kannal’s new house is now practically completed, except a portion of the interior painting. In all respects, including size, convenience, an elegance of finish and thoroughness of construction it will rank among the very best residences in the town. The exterior, which like the interior is after the very latest suburban models, and very aorate. The interior finish is marvellously fine; and includes quarter-sawed and antique oak, black ash, hackberry, and various other hard woods, all highly polished; and the extent and elegance of which must be seen to be appreciated. The building is thoroughly and in fact elaborately plumbed throughout, with hot and cold water in every part of the house. The plumbing alone cost as much as many enure houses, in the town. The house s heated by hot air, with a most complete heating apparatus. The furnace is in the cellar, and with its attachments, cost SSOO. A portable gas machine, also in. Jthe cellar, brilliantly lights the house, the machine having capacity for 70 lights. The same machine also supplies the magnificent gas cooking range, in the kitchen, and also the several grates in different rooms, for use at times when a little warmpth is needed, and the fu r „ nace is not running. It is truly a splendid building and henceforth no one has fully seen Rensselaer who has not seen Emmet Kannal’s residence, at the south end of River street.

Death of Morris Nelson,

Yesterday at noon the sad news was received here that D. M. Nelson, exCounty Superintendent and one the best and brightest young men Jasper County ever produced, had died that morning, in Chicago. He returned from Alabama about two weeks before and on the journey contracted a severe diarrhoea. Arriving at Rensselaer he was prescribed for by Dr. Hartsell, and much improved. On Monday of last week he went to Chicago, where over-exerting himself in the transaction of important business and perhaps the drinking water there, brought on a recurrence of his malady in a very aggravated form. A physician was called and his wife sent for from this place. He grew steadily worse and on Monday Dr. Hartsell was called, by telegram. He found that the case had developed into cholera morbus, and was beyond help when he arrived. He died in great agony, at 3 A. M., yesterday morning. The funeral will be held here, today, at the residence of John W. Paxton on Cullen street

Plighted their Troth.

The spacious and commodious home of Dr. and Mrs. M. B. Alter was filled to over-flowiDg on Wed* nesday evening the 22nd inst, the occasion being the marriage of their daughter, Olive H. to Mr. Hugh L. Gamble, of St Louis, Mo. The rooms were tastefully decorated with flowers and plants. At eight o’clock the bridal couple attended by sister True, descended the stairs and led by little Paul Honan and Evelyn Watson to the strains of the wedding march, took their position beneath the arch from which was supended two large floral hearts united with true-love knots of white ribbon. The ceremony was performed by Rev. T. ,F. Drake of the Trinity M. E. Church in a very beautiful and impressive manner. The bride looked lovely in her wedding dress of white corded silk made entrain over which fell the brid-
