From DeMotte, Children’s Day was appropriately observed at the School House on last Sabbath. Recitations, songs and an address by the Rev. B. H. Bradbury forming a part of the exercises. The subject of a bridge across the Kankakee is now the all absorbing topic for discussion. Arrangements are being made for an enormous crowd the 4th and all those desiring a pleasant place to celebrate that day will find it to their interest to be present. Mrs. A. Halleck and mother have been visiting friends in Steuben Co. this state for the past few weeks. Mrs. Halleck will return in time however to help Northern Jasper has the most promising prospects for good Crops of all kinds since the flood.

They arrived in this place on the evening train and . have gone to housekeeping in Mr. Morehead’s property, nearly opposite the Christian church. They heve the best wishes of many friends. Miss Violet Harris and Mr. Joseph 'Glosser were married on Sunday last, by Rev. Peter Hinds, at his home'ln Milroy township, after which the happy couple came to this place where a reception was given by the mother •of the bride. On Monday Mr. and Mrs. Glosser left for their home in Milroy township where the groom is an extensive and successful farmer. Mrs. Glosser will, doubtless, be a ikmd stepmother to the children brought under her care, as she is very ,•amiable in disposition. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Balthisleft on Monday for Cilium, lit., where the marriage of Miss Fannie Balthis and ißev. Mr. Quail, of the Congregational church, was solemnized on Tuesday.

The great and glorious Fourth; the day we celebrate, will meet with no public demonstration in this place,

unless, perchance there should be an extra horse race or a ball. Our citizens are patriotic enough, doubtless, but as our lives move along peacefully and quietly there is nothing to rouse our enthusiasm.Most <if our people will probably celebrate elsewhere. 1Mrs. P.

Patton and Ramsey will take possession of their handsome and commodious new building this week, The rooms are large, well lighted and handsomely finished and decorated.

“Battle of the Dudes” is Real Mean, So There!

Goodland Herald: ’Tis said that at the conclusion of the base-ball game between Indians and Remington club at fair grounds Thursday of last week there was a regular “battle of the dudes,” in which umbrellas took the place of war clubs. The riot was started by the sporting gentry who had risked their cash on the result of the game, and was confined to Rensselaer and Remington. One or two Goodlanders got hit in the melee but not dangerously damaged. Bring in your Watches, Clocks and Jewelry and have them repaired in workmanlike manner and warranted by ; H. J. Rossbacher, at F. B. Myers’ drug stoi&. Ladies, call at Mrs. Lecklider’s and examine her new line of spring and summer millinery, laces, notions and ladies’ goods, just received from Chicago.
