CORRESPONDENCE.
FROM MARLBORO. Frank Phillips Esq of Chicago and brother to J. B. Phillips of this place visited his friends and relatives in Hanging Grove last week. Frank is now engaged in the grocery business in Chicago. The Literary last Friday might at Marlboro was one of the best held so far this winter and was enjoyed by a very crowded house. The society meets again at Osborne in two weeks. Several of the young folks of Marlboro assisted by a few others will give a play at the Zard Oprea House in a few weeks. Further notice will be given. , ■—_ There will be a box supper at the Fair View school bouie next Saturday night. Miss Lerie Wilson the teacher and her pupils are making elaborate preparations for a fine time. A splendid programme is being prepared and everybody is invited. The proceeds are to be expended for the Young People’s Reading Circle books. Miss Maggie Peregrine and Miss Marie Robinson were the guests of C. A. Armstrong last Sunday. Hanging Grove will have B about six months and a half of school this winter. A. McCoy has rented his large farm north of this place to Geo Brown of Barkley Tp. Susie.
FROM WHEATFIELD. Win. Dahn eke is hauling logs from his farm to Mr. Algrim’s mill to be cut into square timber, to build a large feed mill and grain warehouse, on Bryon St. An improvement which Wheatfield will appreciate as it is so much needed. Mr. Dahncke will also build a large uprignt addition to his already very complete residence. E. W. Phelps will commence his residence as soon as the weather will permit. There are seven buildings going up or contemplated which will be built as soon as spring opens. Wc see John Graves is now building a Justice Court, where he will dispense Justice, and quite often a bbl. of flour in it, to the aforesaid. The M. E. Church people arc conducting a very interesting protracted meeting at the school house. They intend to build a church next fall. They have their parsonage completed and Rev. Veach occupies it. The Daughters of Rebekah (God bless them) have ordered material for a complete set of Regalias and Books, for Lodge purposes. There is a fair prospect that in the near future there will be a. new- capital invested here, and we welcome all reputable people who will come and help us to be build up our town and also the country. The hay crop is moving off slowly on account of scarsity of cars.
On the 24th. our esteemed young friend, Herman Ketchmark and the beautiful and accomplished Miss Eva C. Mallery were married. The ceremony was performed at the M. E. parsonage by Rev. Veach, our Methodist pastor, and the next evening at mother Ketchmark’s, they entertained their many friends who brought many presents. With all this unexpected and continual cold weather there is but little sickness here. Some one said that our citizen local preacher John M. Helmick, has withdrawn from the M. E. church. Since writing above we find it so. Post-master Smiley is patronising the Woman’s Aid Society getting washing and mending done preparatory to the prompt vamoosing the ranch in March. The loneliest old couple in our berg is Mr. and Mrs. Bently. Since the last of a family of 7 children have gone. Their youngest son A. C. Bently, has taken a position as fireman with his brother W. S. on the Rock Island Road. They say there is not potatoes enough in our town to make one dish of potato soup. Nonamb.

" The death of Harry E.- Tribby which occurred at the home of his father in Greencastle, Ind., on Tuesday morning of last week wasope of peculiar sadness. He was a little past his twentieth year and was a young man of exceptionally fine abilities, gentlemanly deportment and Christian character. His death which was caused by typhoid fever was quite sudden and unexpected. The disease seemed to have taken a favorable turn and he was thought to be out of all danger, his father having gone to inform the physician of his improved condition. A messenger was hurriedly sent for the father and the Dr., whose quick and practiced eye saw that the end was near, and he so informed the family. The dying boy heard him and expressed a readiness and Willingness to die, but also a strong desire to live, as he meant to do so much in this world, but it was not to be. He died soon after the arrival of the physician. He would have graduated next year from DePauw University, and all who knew him know that he would have graduated with high honors. The greater part of his short life was spent in th ; s place and most of us will long remember the bright and handsome boy as he walked to and from the school house where he laid the foundation of a splendid education. The remains were taken to Cincinnati for interment beside the mother who preceded him to the “better land” nearly four years ago.
Mr. T. J. Turpin has been seriously sick for the past two weeks with pneumonia. A. H. Witman having sold Jus, handsome residence to Mr. Thompson will find a temporary home in the house lately vacated by Elder J. P. Robinson who has fitted up and taken possession of the handsome rooms over the Bank of Remington. Collins Griffith is suffering severely from injuries received while leading a spirited young colt to water, several weeks ago. The colt reared up and in coming down managed to get one of his hoofs in Mr. Griffith’s coat pocket. In his struggles to extricate the hoof from its unaccustomed quarters, Mr. Griffith was thrown to the ground and painfully injured, one ankle being broken and his entire system badly shaken up and bruised.
We regret to state that Mrs. H. Landon is not recovering as rapidly as her many friends may wish her to do. After being able to walk about the house and even up and down stairs, she is again confined to her bed. The aged mother of Dr. Landon who has long been a helpless invalid is in a critical condition and will probably soon be released from suffering. Rev. J. L. Wilson, D. D., of Valparaiso, preached two splendid sermons in the M. E. church in this place on Saturday evening and Sunday morning.
Mr. and Mrs. William Rich will leave us this week for their new home in Elwood, followed by the good wishes of hosts of friends.
Professors Bohannon and Wise, Superintendent and Principal of the public schools of Rensselaer and Miss Helen Kelley and Miss McDonald teachers therein, spent Saturday last in Remington the guests of Mrs. P. H. Lally and family.
Phebe, wife of Mr. G. G. Plummer, died on Monday morning last, at her home in this place of pneumonia following an attack of measles . She has been ailing for several years, and her constitution was too feeble to rally from the effects of the disease. She seemed to get well of the measles but during the sickness of her son, who was also suffering with measles, she suffered a relapse which ended in death, as before stated, on Monday morning. She was a most estimable woman, walking quietly in the paths of duty. She leaves besides her husband a daughter just grown to womanhood and a son a few years younger who will miss the kindly and gentle ministrations of a devoted mother. Funeral services were held at the residence on Tuesday morning by Bev. J. P. Robinson, after which the remains were taken to Palestine for interment 4 Remimgtonian .
