CORRESPONDENCE.

FROM WHEATFIELD. A lull in business at present. Farmers are needing rain badly. Uncle Joe Cason is very low. His death is expected momentarily. Ed Helmick, wife and little daughter have again removed to Shelby, where Mr. H. will act again as station agent. John Collins has traded his property, south of town for property in Washington Heights, where he expects to make bis future home. John ia an old settler of northern Jasper and a good citizen. About three thousand people assembled in Wheatfield, July 4th for the purpose of celebrating that great find glorious day when America first gained her freedom. All night before, nothing could be heard but the loud report of both cannons and guns. The “Declaration of Independence” was read by Dr. Samuel Turner after which the congregation listened very attentively to a speech by Rev. Hootman. Singing by the citizens and “Loyal Temperance Legion” of Wheatfield and music by the Hogan Band, completed the exercises of the forenoon. Dancing in the afternoon and evening, step being kept to music from Chicago, three pieces of as fine music as we have had the pleasure of feasting our ears upon, for many a day. Fire works in the 1 evening in which the picture <?f the “Father of Our Country” was plainly revealed and baloon ascension. Everybody retiring with their families to their homes feeling they had spent a pleasant and enjoyable day. Everybody took in Reed’s Show last Saturday night, we must say we saw as fine trapeze work as we ever witnessed. Found, on 4 of July grounds, a child’s pocket book. Owner can h ave same by calling at Turner & Taylor’s millinery shop, and proving property.

REMINGTON ITEMS.

Mr. William Reed died at his home in this place on Friday evening last, after weeks and months of suffering. He was aged seventyfour years, and for more than fifty three years he had been a faithful and consistent member of the Methodist church, dying with the full assurance of a blessed life to come. The funeral took place at the Methodist church on Sunday morning at half past ten o’clock, the pastor, Bev. A. H. DeLong at the request of the family, using the sublime words of Paul found m 2 Timothy, fourth chapter, sixth, seventh and eighth verses as a foundation for the most comforting remarks. Tlie funeral was largely attended by his old friends and neighbors from the vicinity of Rensselaer as well as those in town who wanted to show their respect for a truly good man. Mrs. Will Hollingsworth and her two sons and Miss Rose Hollingsworth, all of Bloomington, 111. are visiting relatives and friends in this place. __

Misses Nettie Price, Anna Draper and Minnie Walker left for the World’s Fair City last Thursday. The Presbyterian Ladies are preparing to give a Columbian entertainment in the near future which should be, and probably will be,-well patronized. From the Wolcott Enterprise we learn that an electric R. R. is in contemplation between Lafayette and Chicago that may strike either Wolcott or Remington. If there is a ghost of a chance for securing another road, our citizens should take up the matter. There is a dearth of news in our village, consequently these items are necessarily brief. Mr. William Geier had a well dug on his premises in this place which is something of a phenomenon. On Friday evening the men quit digging at a depth of twenty five feet as there was no sign of water. On Saturday evening it was still dry, but on Sunday evening there were twenty three feet of water in the well. On Monday it was pumped out and walled up and it is now so full it threatens to run over. It is certainly a gusher. This weather while good for the haymakers is ruinous to the other crops.

Miss Belle Kenyon, of Joliet, HL, is Visiting relatives and friends in this place and vicinity. We understand that Mr. G. B. Clark, our enterprising market gardener, sold over 1200 quarts of strawberries this season and would have sold more but for the unfavorable weather. Remingtonian.

Rensselaer Creamery On Top.

The awards for the Jane exhibits of Indiana butter at the World’s Fair, were made last Thursday. In the creamery butter division, the first prize was given to the Rensselaer Creamery. - Its exhibit was graded at 97, or only three points below a perfect grade, and this was two points higher than any other. The following was the standing of the different creameries exhibiting. Rensselaer .97 1ndianap01i5.......... .95 Spiceland .... .95 New castle. .94 Centerville 94 Lewisville ,93 Zionsville.. .92 Rushville, Class 5 90" Lowell and Spring port cards not in. This success is a great thing for the creamery in general and for Charley Morland, the boss butter maker, in particular, and he feels mighty good over it. The keg of butter that took the prize was taken at random from a lot bf a dozen or more, that were ready for shipping. Another keg has been sent in, to try for the July prize.

A Young Man Goes Crazy.

■ William Gasoway, of Union tp., has been adjudged insane and application made for for his admissson to the Logansport asylum. His examination was held Monday, before Justices Burnham and Morgan, with Drs. Loughridge and Alter as examining physicians. # He is a young man, 23 years old, and until lately peaceful and industrious. His insanity has been the source of considerable excitement in the vicinity of his residence. His first notable demonstration occured at Virgie, Saturday, where without warning or provocation he struck S. T. Comer, a friend and neighbor, a heavy blow in the face. His father and other parties succeeded in get ting the young man home, but not until he had quite painfully injured his father, by striking him in the chest. On arriving at his father’s house, he proceeded to take possession of the premises. Word was sent to Sheriff Hanley, whOj in company, with Dept. Sheriff Ben McColly, and Constable Myers, of Barkley, arrived at the place about sundown Saturday evening. They found young Gasaway in no frame of mind to be taken prisoner, but instead well armed with a supply of rocks, with which he proposed to “smash” any one who tried to capture him. He held the fort all night, permitting no one inside the house except a young man named Charley Potter. About sun--rise Sunday morning, Gasoway fell asleep, and Messrs. Hanley, McColly and Myers slipped into the house and captured him. Not without a hard struggle, however, for he is a powerful young fellow, weighing some 170 pounds. He was lodged in jail for safe keeping, where he will remain until he is taken to the asylum. ' The young man had the grip hard, about 18 months ago, and his mind is thought to have been affected ever since.

ADDITIONAL LOCALS,

Mel Makeever and a party of friends went over to Remington, Tuesday, to arrange a race with Luther Patton, son of Dr. Patton. The proposition was to give Patton 15 feet start on a 200 yards ran. For some reason the race did not take place, although we have it pretty straight that Patton’s backers stood ready to put up the cash to any amount. The false report that the Arlington Hotel was burned Monday' evening, had increased by the time it reached R. B. Harris’ place, in Barkley tp., to the statement that 75 people were burned to death inside of it. As two of Mr. and Mrs. Harris’children were at the World’s Fair at the time, and stopping at the Arlington, the report naturally caused them the greatest distress, and anxiety. They drove at once to Rensselaer, but learned the falsity of the report of J. N. Leatherman, just before reaching town.

Mel Makeever’s foot race comes off at Goshen, this state, next Saturday. The race is for the championship of America, a prize of $2200 and a chance at the gate money. Mr. Makeever will have to compete with the best foot-racers on earth, among others being Collins, present champion, 120 yard sprinter and a winner of the noted Sheffield handicap, of Kugland.2^The race wafr originally arranged for Chicago, but Goshen got it by liberal offers. The race will be run in groups of three or four men to each group, and winners of the respective groups will all run together to decide the championship. Mr. Makeever’s competitors will have to do some good running if they beat him. As witness the fact that he made a trial 100 yards in less than 10 and a fifth seconds, a few nights ago. Mr. Makeever left for Goshen yesterday morning, and took Harry Wiltshire for a “trainer.”

The Monnett machine shops, north of the raiload, are now prepared to do machine repairing 43-stp. The report was circulated here last Friday that Rensselaer parties were in the freight train wreck, at Cedar Lake, with a lot of fat cattle, bound for the Chicago stock yards. The report was incorrect, although it was by the merest accident that they were not on one of the wrecked trains. Walter Porter, Ad Robinson, J. L. Nichols and Henry Grow were on their way to the stock yards, with nine loads of cattle, 4 loads belonging to McCoy & Porter, two to Robinson and one each to Grow, Nichols and Doc Nichols. In the ordinary course, their cars would have heen taken in by the local freight, but a special freight happened to precede the local that morning, and the shippers of the cattle, by special effort, succeeded in getting the extra train to take their stock. At Cedar Lake, their train was only a few hundred yards ahead of the local, and immediately after their train passed the ice train, the latter backed on to the main track and was run into by the local, thus causing the wreck.

Many curious and interesting sights are seen on the Midway Plaisance, this street of all nations, the Mecca of all visitors to the Great World’s fair at Chicago; but among all its exhibits the “Panorama of the Swiss Alps” is doubtless the most highly artistic. To those whose good fortune it has been to go “abroad,” this panorama awakens old memories, and to the many who have been less fortunate this really grand painting is a revela tion. It is a perfect representation of the famed Bernese Oberland, as it would appear in all the immensity of reality to a sight seer in the midst of the Alps. The illusion is made perfect by the truthfulness of local color and by the vigorous and sincere paintings cf such artists as Burnand,Baud Bovy and Furet. This superb canvas was painted m Paris, France, for the express purpose of exhibition at the World’s Fair, and has received the well-deserved encomiums of all the leading French and American artists.

The Arlington Hotel, 6418 t 06430, Stony Island Ave., Chicago is a most convenient place for Jasper county people visiting the World’s Fair. It is directly across the street from the G4lh street entrance, and the electric cars from Burnside will land you right at the door.
