The Epworth League of this place will attend a social in Goodland, toiicuiiow, (Wednesday), by invitation from llie League in that place. A woman living in the northwest part of town —wife of a former saloon keeper of this place—was arrested Monday morning of this week, and brought before Justice Chappell on charge of cruelty to- her child, a little girl nine yrnars old. The charge being sustained the unnatural mother was fined one-dollar and costs, amounting in all to about S4O. A woman living alone and at a distance from any neighbor was found dead in her house about eight miles from town, last Saturday. From all indications she had been dead two or three days when the body was found. She was a widow, childless and alone and her name was Turvcy Mrs. Renfrew, widow of a gentleman who died suddenly of heart disease in this place some years ago, died on Friday last at the home of Mr. Frank Goodspeed a few miles north of Wolcott. Like her husband, Mis. Renfrew died quite suddenly. She had been apparently in her usual health, which was not vigorous, but in-a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, she was gone. The remains were brought to the Remington cemetery on Monday for interment beside lier husband.

ADDITIONAL LOCALS.

The session of the County Commissioners which begins next Monday will be an important one, and also no doubt, in some respects a lively one. The Wakarusa Ditch matter will come up for final action, and is liable to cause considerable controversy. The Gifford Drainage District plan will also come up fer action. This will probably be the occasion of a pretty lively contest, as there is considerable opposition to the scheme. The opposing parties have employed Judge Hamtnond as their legal representative. I have made arrangements for plenty of money to loan, on farms in sums of five hundred dollars, or any amount above that, at 6 per cent, annual interest, and a small commission. Money may be obtained for five years or longer if desired. M. F. Chii.cote.

We republish-elsewhere a clipping from the Lafayette Courier in regard to the proposed electric railroad. While we have very little faith in this gigantic electric railroad project there is, of course, a possbility that the roeds will be built. Certainly all things indicate an immense extension of electric railroads before many years. If this particular road is ever built from Indianapolis to Chicago, by the way of Lafayette, it will almost inevitably cross Jasper county. In that case, its most logical route would be to take in Wolcott and Rensselaer and from here strike for Hammond, keeping some miies to the eastward of the L. N. A. & C. road.

Several premonitory cases of Hokesmithing have already oecured amoDg the pensioned veterans in Jasper county, and are indicative of more numerous and more serious cases yet to follow. E. W. Morris, of Jordan Tp., is o Q e of these. His pension of sl2, for rheumatism and diarrhea is cut off until « he can prove the case all over again. Cyrus Haas, of Rensselaer is another instance. He was getting $lO a month for lumbago and sciatic rheumatism. He was last week ordered

to appear before the examining board at Delphi, and notified that his pension would be cut off, pending tbe result of the examination- Mr. Haas’ financial condition is such that the suspension of his pension is a very serious matter to himself and family. 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. Robx. Randle.

There is a road-making exhibit at the World’s Fair which ought to be well studied by Jasper county people before any more expensive roads are undertaken in the county. It is at the south end of the fair, just west of the Big Tree restaurant, and just south of the wind mill exhibit. Various forms of hard roads are shown, with their method of construction. These include roads for light and heavy traffic and for different kinds of soils. An expert road maker is in charge and explains the various styles of roads to all who choose to listen. Of the various kinds of country roads shown, the one which struck us as the best adapted to the vicinity of Rensselaer, considering character of soil and material at command, consisted of ‘a broad grade, say 25 or 30 feet wide, and cl ear* to one side of this was the hard pike. This was about 8 or 9 feet wide, made of stone crushed to about the size used on Washington street, in Rensselaer. The stone was about ten inches deep, and the top of the stone was on the level with the dirt pike, but the dirt sloped from the stone clear to the ditch, to carry off the water. The great advantage of this plan is that it gives a fine hard pike during the muchly season, with a dirt pike alongside, to use in dry weather—during much-.of" which time a dirt pike is the best road on earth, best for the horses and pleasantest for the people. Such a pike would also save fully half the wear on the hard road. We are informed that this combined dirt and stone road is being extensively adopted in many counties of this state, where people are accustomed to the use of gravel and Hose roads.

Gravel Road Estimates.

The viewers on the proposed gravel road have made a rough estimate of.the matters referred to them by the Board of Commissioners and the following facts are gleaned from their estimate:' The estimated cost of College Road is $11810.34 or $2545 43 per mile. Of Long Ridge Road $10716.64 or $2503188 per mile. Of Poor Farm and Pleasant Ridge Road $17103.76 or $2108.42 per mile. The total cost of all the roads is $39630.94, or $2376 per cpile. - thirty feet wide, ditched so as to draw at least one foot below surface and grade not exceeding four feet in one hundred. Twelve feet wide to be graveled or macadamized. The material to be used is good gravel, 14 inches in center and 10 at edges. Good broken stone 10 inches in center and 8 at edges. Broken stone and gravel 12 inches in center aDd 8 at edges. The report is subject to correction and will not be executed and filed until reviewed.

The Proposed Electrical Railway.

At Indianapolis, on Monday afternoon, E. G. Pennington, general manager of the Chicago and Central Indiana Electrical railroad, the new proposed electric line between Chicago and the gas towns of Indiana to Indianapolis, made application for right of way in Marion county. They claim to have already secured the same for a great portion of their road, and assure the public that their line will certainly be established at no very distant day. Lafayette is on the main line between Chicago and Indianapolis, and will be an important station. Both passengers and freight will be earned. The cars will be double the length of the ordinary electric cars and fitted to be rendered cool in summer and perfectly comfortable during the cool season. The passenger rate already adopted will be one cent a mile, with a correspondingly fair reduction for transporting freight. The advantage of this new railroad system can scarcely be fully appreciated at this time, and it is reasonable that it should be so until it is better under-
