FROM WHEATFIELD.

Too late for last week. Mr. Austin is giving his town property a new coat of paint also doing some street grading which adds greatly to the improvements of that part of town. ——The excursion last Sunday,Tuning from Wheatfield to Winamac was quite well loaded when it got to its j ourhey’s end with passengers anxious to hear the Rev. Sam Jones. All seem delighted. ' Ward Hamilton has sold his barber shop to a gentleman from Winamac whose name we have not as yet learned. We wish the new man success. Uncle Joe Cason still lingers at death’s door. Mrs. Pmgle, of Chicago, who has been visiting her sister, Mrs. Tinkham, returned home Monday of this week. Grace, her eldest daughter, accompanying her. We hear rumors of diphtheria in our little town; we hope this is a false report. Sylvester Austin is placing the lumber on the grounds for his new dwelling. I Am.

REMINGTON ITEMS.

The ladies of the M. E. church will hold a festival in the beautiful grounds adjoining the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Hartley, this (Tuesday) evening. -' Mrs. Davits Hart whose serious sickness was chronicled m our letter of last week is still living although in a very feeble and critical- condition. Mr, Conrad, of Indianapolis, was in town last Sunday the guest of O. B. Mclntire and family. The entertainment given by the ladies of the Presbyterian church was sueceessful in every way. The Christian Sunday School held a picnic at the fair grounds on Tuesday of this week. By the way, the fair will open four weeks from today, and no doubt there will be a large attendance. T he W. C, T. U. of this place held a convention on Monday of this week with the Co. Pres. Mrs. H. M. D raper in the chair. A goodly number were in attendance and the exercises throughout were characterized by intelligent earnestness. Valuable assistance was rendered by the following ladies from Goodland: Mesdames. Hardy, Perry, Perkins, Fox Gray, Bellows and Rockwood. Several ladies from Bonnelaer, also cheered the Remington Union by their presence. They were Mesdames. Collins, Porter, and Misses Clara Reeves and Mattie Benjamin. In the evening Mrs. Edna Farley Tinsley state organizer of the L. T. L. work, made an excellent address which could not fail to impress those present with the importance of the work among the children . Remingtonian.

Capt. J. M. Kinney supervised the building of the two new iron bridges on the Monon over Deer and Wild Cat creeks. It is a handseme and most substantial job of work. The passenger trains now run over with scarcely slackening up their speed and they are considered the safest railroad bridges anywhere. Pap Kinney has been with the Monon ever since it was first organized and he is justly proud of the new work.—Delphi Times.

ADDITIONAL LOCALS.

Manage licenses since last reportj Daniel E. Tanner, ( Tillie P. Stenkie. ] Henry W. B. Greenhalgh, ( Nora A. Shea. W. B. Austin received an even SI,OOO, one day last week, out of an investment of less than 130. He invested last fall in one of the bonds of a get-rich-quick company, which has its nominal head quarters in a town in Missouri, and being in early, his bond was redeemed, all right and he has got the cash, on it. It was a a mighty good investment I have made arrangements for plenty of money to loan, on farms in sums of five hundred dollars, or any amount above th at at 3 per cent annual interest, and a small commission. Money may be obtained for five years or longer if desired. - - M. F. Chilcote.

Prosecutor John T. Brown was stricken down with rheumatism last Thursday and was not able to be out until Tuesday forenoon when, he managed to walk to his office. His entire right side was affected and for four days he was enduring such suffering that he could neither eat nor sleep. At present he is better but by no means a well man .—Fowler RevieA. For the occasion of the unveiling of the Soldiers Monument at Delphi, July 27. On which occasion ExPresident Harrison and Ex- Gov. Chase will make speeches. Tickets will be sold on the Monon Route at one and one third fare for the round trip, good returning July 28. Erastus Peacock, the mail route agent, received a notice last Thursday that he had been promoted from the fourth class to the fifth and his salary increased from sllsO to SI3OO. Mr. Peacock, who is an exceptionally expert and a faithful postal clerk, is retained in his position, and his chances of promotion are secured, by virtue of the civil service reform law. A law which we have always considered as based upon correct principles, in spite of the wide prejudice against the law which exists among politicians of all parties. The California, Mo., Herald, F. B. Lyons paper, gives an extended account of the capture of a gang of train robbers, at that place. The Marshal of the town slipped up on a little knot

of local toughs and amatuer bad men, and heard them arrange the plan of the robbery, including the very spot, some two miles out, where they would stop the train. The Marshal got together a posse of citizens, well armed assembled them at the spot where the robbers proposed to stop the train, and caught the whole gang, in the very act of the robbery. The undersigned has purchased of Thos. Burns the new livery stable, on Vanßensselaer street, west of the public square, and proposes to conduct the same in a manner to give the amplest satisfaction to all patrons. Nothing but good rigs sent out. Prices very reasonable. Give me a trial.

Robt. Randle. , » A box of gravel from the Shields’ gravel deposit, a few miles south of town, has been on inspection in front of the post-office for some days. The gravel would doubtless make fair road material, although it would need screening to take out the cobble stones, and which would perhaps work in all right if placed the botton of the pike. There is said to be an almost limitless quantity of this gravel on the Shields place. Messrs. Alter, Jones and Lamborn, engineer and viewers on the proposed gravel roads in this township were examining the gravel deposits north of town the latter part of last week. B. F. Ferguson is a Notary Public and can make out and take acknowledgment of any legal papers. Give him a call.

A rather unusual experience befell Mr. and Mrs F. B. Learning while at Chicago, last Friday. They got tired of sitting in the depot waiting for the train, and therefore walked out to Lake front park, some 5 or 6 blocks distant. On arriving there Mr. Learning suddenly clapped bis hand upon his vacant hip pocket, and in tragic tones ejaculated “Gosh, my pocket-book is gone:** His next words were, “No it ain’t either,” for it was in his coat pocket. “Well, if your’s isn’t lost, mine is,” remarked Mrs. Learning, and sure enough it was. They hustled back to the depot, and found the missing pocketbook on the seat, where she had dropped it It contained 130 or S4O.

Charley Zacher, brother-in-law of Charley Platt, Jr., was in Chicago, last Thursday, on his way back to his home in Minnesota, after two weeks visit in Rensselaer, and he there met with an experience which will ’ make him “look a leedle oud” the j next time he is in the big and simple city. He was asked by a stranger | the way to the World’s Fair. Zach- ■ er did not know, and the stranger : then suggested that they look for it, together. First however the stran- ; ger suggested that they step into a 1 convenient saloon, where he, the: stranger, could treat a case of nose bleeding, from which 'he seemed to be suffering. Inside the saloon they took beer, and the stranger then asked Young Zacher to change a $lO ’bill. Zacher took out his pocket-book, the stranger snatched it and lit out. Zacher started after him, when four or Ave other men ran in front of Zacher and so impeded his progress that the man with the pocket-book ma4e good his escape. The pocketbook contained sllO, all of Mr. Zacher’s money. He reported the robbery to the police, and was told to come the next day and they would try to get his money back for him, by threatning the saloon keeper where the robbery occurred with a revoking of his license. Zacker deposited bis ticket for Minnesota, and thereby got morey enough to come back to Rensselaer on. Here’he replenished his pocket by a loan from brother-in-law Charley, and the next afternoon returned to Chicago to see if the police had got back his money and to resume his journey to Minnesota. Up to the time of going to press no word has been heard from Mr. Zacker, or to whether he got his money back or not.

Must Mean Modest Jim Turpie.

Monon Sewn. . ... The correspondent who signs his name, “Far West,” has a new rail road largely in his mind. He is a prominent citizen of means, and it has been the rule of his life to put into effect his purposes. If he lives we confidently predict that he will be the Father of the new railroad for Monon. He is well known and “is a hustler from away back. ” When the time comes to act we will go our all on the success of the undertaking.

Death of Mrs. Sam Henry.

The sudden and unexpected death of Mrs. Susan Henry, wife of S. A. Henry, of this place, and a sister Of Mr. R. S. Dwiggins, now of Chicago, occurred at Battle Creek, Mich., Tuesday morning of this week at about 6 o’clock. Mrs. Henry had been unwell for some time, it is stated, with a complication of disorders. About a week ago she had a paralytic stroke and. soon after was taken to Battle -Creek, for treatment when she died Tuesday morning, of another stroke of paralysis followed by blood poisoning. The remains were brought to Rensselaer, Tuesday evening. The funeral will be held at 10 a. m. to-day, from the Church of God.

The “Immortal J. N.” Dead.

J. N. Free, the “Immortal J. N.” or “J. N. the Philosopher,” as he preferred being called, is dead, breathing his last at Columbus, O. Monday. Free visited Delphi frequently some years ago, “to lift the pressure” and “remove the veil.” He was always on the move but never paid a railroad fare or hotel bill.—Delphi Times. We are somewhat inclined to doubt the correctness of the report of Free’s death, from the reason that the reports were conflicting, one of them being that he was drowned in Missouri. Free was a crank of continental reputation, and will be personally remembered by many of our citizens from two or three visits made here, a few years ago.

In Jail.

Jerry Karsner was arrested last Monday night, while attempting to break into Mr. J. R. Kight’s saloon. Wednesday afternoon he had a hearing before Squire Burnham and was fined for being drunk —eight days in the work house. Deputy Sheriff McColly made the arrest.
