Opera House Friday Feb., 3rd. " ---

-Many persons believe that a postmaster is a sort of mop-rag for the general public to wipe its feet on,” says the Converse Journal, “and invariably. insist that he shall lick their stamps for them. While no post-" master will refuse to lick stamps for persons obviously unable to do it for themselves, yet for persons able to do it themselves to ask a postmaster or clerk to lick their stamps for them is little short of an insult. Such persons want the postmaster to do something for them which they dislike to do themselves- It is not a part of the postmaster's duty to lick stamps for the public, and he is not required

to do it. He is not even compelled under the law to make change- He does it as an act of courtesy not as a requirement. J. E. Remsbnrg, whose ability as an orator, justifies all that is claimed for him in that particular, gave his lecture on Thomas Paine, at the Opera House last Thursday night,, to a large audience. He detailed Paine’s great service to his country previous to and during the American revolution, ably defended him against the charges of drunkenness and immorality that have been brought against him; produced strong proof agamst the truth of the statement that Paine recanted his peculiar religious viewson his death-bed, and lastly made a strong appeal in favor of greater liberality upon the part of Christiana,. especially the clergy, towards those who honestly differ with them in matters religious. The audience was attentive throughout the entire lectuie, and the hearty applause given at its conclusion showed that there were also appreciative. Knox Republican r Immediately alter the jury returned their verdict last Friday morning, adjudging Ernestine Kersting guilty or manslaughter and assessing her punishment at live years in the penitentiary, there was a well-defined rumor that she would be granted a new trial. Tuesday the rumor developed into reality and the motion of her attorneys for a new trial was sustained. Then on motion of her attorneys she was admitted to bail in the sum of SIOO for her appearance in the March term of court, S. B„ Davis, John Lohse, Geo. Lewis and her husband, Chas. Kersting going on her bond. In view of

this proceeding, people are wondering why Mrs. Kerstiug’s partner in the brutal murder of old man Gerardy, is not also turned out upon a paltry bond of SIOO. The kiliing of Gerardy was fiendish, and Mrs. Kersting is fortunate indeed to escape so easily. Five years in the penitentiary—the verdict of the jury—is regarded as right and proper by a great many people who heard the

evidence in the case.. The much indulged in practice of boys jumping upon passing sleighs and ridiDg a block or two, nearly resulted in a bad accident, last Thursday afternoon. A nine year old son of Nathan Fendig was riding on a sleigh and jumped off near the postoffice, directly in front of another horse, hitched to a cutter, coming in the opposite direction from which he had been going* The knee of the

horse struck the boy on the chin and knocked him down, and the cutter, after dragging the boy quite a long distance, passed over his body, across the abdomen. The horse was driven by E. McGriff, and belonged to La Rue Bros., and no blame could be attached to the driver. The little boy was much bruised and it first seemed, very badly hurt, but he was carried up to Dr. Hartsell’s office, and an examination showed that no bones were brokep, and his subsequent rapid recovery shows that there were no severe internal injuries. This accident had the good effect of greatly checking the dangerous practice of jumping upon moving sleighs. "7 “:V77i7T r ~':'T J ,\ '77777777 r 777 .77"

WILL REBUILD THE MILL.

The Rensseher Mill, burned down last week, will 1 be speedily rebuilt and on a larger and more improved scale. The parties interested will be T. J. Sayler, J. T. Sayler and D: E. Hollister. The first named will be half owner of the new establishment 'and the other two will own each a quarter. The building will be built of wood, and covered with iron. It will occupy the site of the burned mill. Its erection will be rushed just as fast as the weather will permit, and the

work of getting the material for the foundations upon the ground, will begin next week. In fact, much of it is. already there.,for a large pile of river rock that had been gotten out for crushing for street material, will be utilized for the mill foundations. The capacity of the new mill will be 75 or 80 barrels, per day.' Its cost will be 88,000 or slOl- - The iron covering will include roof' as well as sides. The engine house will be of stone, with a brick chimney. The main floor will be several feet higher than in the old mill and below this will be a good, dry, well-floored basement. As a deserved incouragement to the rapid and greatly improved rebuilding of the mill, the citizens are subscribing liberally to a donation fund, the intention being to

raise 81,500 for the purpose. The requests for subscriptions are being very liberally responded to, especially by the business men. And from a merely business point of view, they nan afford to so respond, for the want of h good rail! in town is a serious detriment to their business, and if, by contributing a small sum in this way, they can greatly hurry Ihe rebuilding of the mill, get it in the location where it will be most beneficial to themselves* and also get a much larger and better mill, it is plainly to their advantage to help the matter along.

OBITUARY.

* Wm, M. Noland, son of Henry and Mary Noland was born in Coshocton county, Ohio on the 29 th day of May 1828. With his parents he came to Indiana and settled in Jasper County where his boyhood days were spent in helping his father clear and iin prove a farm. In the year 1850 Mr. Noland- went to California crossing the plains then known as the great American desert in wagons. On said trip he endured many hardships and dangers. In 1853 lie returned from the west and shortly thereafter was married to Miss Emma Parkinson who died in 1851 leaving one child.. In the year 1861 he was married to Miss Louisiana Gray and unto this union were born four ehildren, three of whom, together with his companion, survive him. After returning from California he purchased a tract of land in Barkley Township, Jasper County, and im-

proved it, making for himself and loved ones a magnificent home, and where he lived surrounded by many warm friends until within the last two years-of" his life, at which time he retired from the farm and located in Francesville, Pulaski county, and engaged in the mercantile business. About the year 1800 he embraced the Religion of Christ and united with the Christian Church and was for many years prior to his death one of its Elders. By his upright walk and kiftd Christian spirit he en-

deared tajhim all who knew him and there arc "many who will rise up in the day of Judgment and call him blessed., Iu this connection we can truly say that we know of no one better prepared to be called from earth suddenly- than was he. On the morning of Jan. 16th he went to his barn to milk and in a few minutes thereafter was carried lifeless back to the house. Suddenly, quietly and painlessly he passed from earth into the great realm beyond tbe vale of mortal life, leaving dear ones and friends to mourn their loss. Short funeral services were conducted by Eld. W. A. Hennegar at the

home on the morning of the 18th. The remains were then intered in the cemetery at Pleasant Grove, JasperCounty Ind., there to rest untiL “Death shall be swallowed up in victory” “Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord, yea saith the spirit that they may rest from their labors and their works do follow them.

The failure of two prominent, business firms*last week, has causecbqyiite an excitement in our village. Much sympathy is felt for the first failure a 3 the business was long established and carried on sometimes against heavy odds We hope that in both instances-affairs may be speedily and satisfactorily adjusted and both firms resume business. Mis.. J. E. Hollett entertained a numbenof Mr. Hollett’s gentleman friends last Tuesday afternoon at a live o'clock dinner given cs abirthday surprise for Mr. Hollett.

Russell, Mrs. Arthur Tuttle, Mr. and Mrs. Will Broadie and Mr. Charles Harner. In all the cases except that of Mrs. Russell, measel3 is the prevailing disease.

An editor who b»8 been pounding away on his delinquent subscribers for some time brought them to a iense of duty with the following poetical parody: “Lives of great mm oft remind us, honest toil don’t stand a chance; more we work we leave behind us bigger patches on oar pasta. On our pants once new and glossy now are patches of different hoe; all because subscribers linger and wont pay ns what is due. . Then let all be up and doing; send iit,yo Qr n, ll° it ne’er so small, or whentho snowa of winter strike us we shall have no pants ct all.” *7 Try- Dullam’s Great German 15 cent liver albs, 40 in each paokage,
