CORRESPONDENCE

From Wheatfield. The members of the Wheatfield Lutheran church met .last Sunday, and elected new officers, and also look which cleaied th~ church of debt. The church is now Jri r*nn<iition. Grover Smith, our new saloon keeper was fined $lO by Judge Graves, for selling on Sunday. George Stembel and Orange Brewer are building new residences in Wheatfield. John Graves’ new store at Virgie will be in charge of Geo. Faylor. The Squire himself has no thought of leaving Wheatfield. Wheatfield will not celebrate this year, but will go to DeMotte, on the 4th.

From Remington. An oculist from Cincinnati whose name your correspondent could not ascertain came to Remington on Monday last to assist Drs. Patton and Ramsey in performing a delicate and difficult surgical operation on one of J. D. Rich’s eyes, the sight of which was defective. The many friends of Mr. Rich will await (be result with anxiety.

It is reported here that Mr. J. F. Warren, who has served so ably and so faithfully as our County Superintendent for the pasl two terms, has been re-elected, which is certainly a good thing for the educat-onal interests of the county. Misses Anna Draper and Orpha Timmons, who attended the commencement exercises last Thursday evening, in the Rensselaer Opera House, and the banquet on Friday evening at the Nowels House, are enthusiastic in their praises of both occasions. The order they said was very good considering the great audience that crowded the room and the exercises were listened to with respectful attention. The beautiful, solemn and appropriate exercises attendant on Decoration Day were observed at the cemetery lest Saturday. An unusually large number of people were present and also an unusually large number of soldiers were in line. May they long continue with us and when they leave us may their children and children’s children for many generations scatter (lowers over them. The crowd at the cemetery was so great that your correspondent could not hear but ore speech, that of Rev. J. Rodman and it was vciy fine. The music was patriotic in character and was sung with a fervor and spirit that recalled the old daysroMjte,war. The flowers were nroffas&and. beautiful and it is the day will be observed as long as we hold om place among the nations.

Decoration Day at DeMotte.

Decoration Day was duly observed at DeMotte under the direction of the Roso Lawn No. 253 Dept of Indiana G. A. R. Commander Ralph Bongarts.

There was a large concourse of pcop’e besides 20 teams that visited the cemetery. The usual G. A. R. services conducted by the officers and comrads of the post.

A Decoration Day Poem. Note* The following beautiful Decoration Day poem appeared in the Indianapolis Journal,„af last Saturday. We are not at liberty to divulge the name of the author, but must be content -with stating that It is a young lady of this .county. [Ed. Republican.] THE LAST COUNTERSIGN. • { Through the measures of the Dead March Throb the thoughts of other years, scenes of lonely camp-fires, From the mist of falling tears. < With the swelling diapason - Wakes the cannon’s sullen roar, And we see the serried thonsands Wheel to battle front once'more. Lolthe pageant still is changing; Ere the sobbiDg echoes cease Broken ranks are angel cohorts In the panoply of peace. •» On they come from prison grave-yards, With damp cypress overgrown, Where the gray moss trails in tangles And the night-wind wails “Unknown.” And from sacred burial cities, Where the storied marbles kept, Whiter than Parian luster, Name and fame of those who slept. Valiantsteps.no longer weary, Mark the glad new revelUe, Summoning the Nation’s martyrs, To the great Memorial Day. There a wounded, thorn-crowned hero Waits before the shining line, With the final order, “Forward,” “Love,” shall he the countersign. —Max Montkith-

An Old Enterprise Recalled

AluuUceUo Herald. A suit now pending before Judge Gresham is calculated to revive the memories of some eighteen years ago, when Monticeilo was the home of a railroad president in the person of Dr. W. S. Haymond, whose d-eam of life and intense ambition was to build a “grand trunkline from Chicago „o the South Atlantic seaboard.” We never pass Archer Avenue on the way into the city*of Chicago without recalling the energy and enthusiasm of our lamented friend and fellow townsman, vhtise shibboleth in those days was “From Archer Avenue to Port Royal!’ ’ Like many other public spirited men he sacraficed his own fortune in the interests of his pet enterprise, which after all yielded him nothing but disappointment The trunk line to the southern seaboard is still an unattaited ideal, but the Monon Rou t e is here, and there is no telling how much it owes to Dr. Raymond for its existence. The lawsuit above referred to is an action brought by Chas. E. Pope, Receiver of the old Chicago <k South Atlantic, against the present Monon management to compel the latter to pay for all contract work done on the road before the C. A S. A. was merged into the Air Line. The case came up last week before Judge Gresham, but the Judge was too busy to hear it, and it went over till July.

Ladies, call at Mrs. Lecklider’s and examine her new line of spring and Bnrnmer millinery, laqes, notions and ladies’ goods, just received from Chicago. We have just received a very fine stock of Ladies’ and misses’ spring wraps, in cloth and stockmelle, in the very latest styles, and at the very lowest prices. Call and examine.
