THE CIRCUIT COURT.

The petit jury was finally discharged last Thursday morning, after an attendance of only four days. They tried only two cases. The two fire damage cases of Elanor and Thomas Florence against Peter Johnson, were consolidated and tried before the court, who has taken the matter under advisement. John Reed, of Jordan tp., applied for the appointment of a guardian for his daughter, Mrs.. Mary Casey, lately declared insane. The case will be tried tomorrow, before a special, jury. The old case of Wm. H. Kelley vs. Geo. E. Vincent was tried Thursday, by the court. The matter is held under advisement. ... In Charles Latham vs. W. S. DeArmond, et al, on note, judgement was given for plaintiff for 1187.13, and costs.

The divorce case of Mary E. Galbraith vs. Sylvester Galbraith, of Barkley tp., was dismissed, the parties having become reconciled. Thirteen new cases have been commenced since the beginning of the term. The great Gifford Ditch case, appealed from the Commissioners’ Court, was filed Wednesday of last week. There is no likelihood that it will be tried this term. Court adjourned last Friday morning for just one week, or until Friday morning of this week.

The Bay View Reading Circle.

Many people will be interested in the new Bay View Reading Circle, and it would be a good move to have one organized here. It counts among its promoters and directors Bishop W. X. Ninde, Pres. J. M. Coulter, Dr. P. S. Henson, Pres. JW. Bashford, Mrs. Margaret E. Sangster, and Pres. W.G. Ballantine, and is neither sectarian nor sectional. The Circle has a short, well planned and low priced course of systematic and useful reading. The entire expense of one year for the books, magazine, membership, etc., is only 12.50. Such a course would be much letter than the aimless and haphazard reading of many and the unprofitable selection of others. It will aid many aspiring young people to fit themselves for large usefullness and enjoyment, and besides, make provision for a most delightful winter Those interested can obtain circulars, giving full information, by addressing J. M. Hall, Flint, Mich.

Death of “Danny” Carr.

Dan M Carr, the well known and always popular passenger conductor on the Monon Route, died at his home in Lafayette, of congestion of the brain, after an illness of onlyfour days. His remains were taken t o Missouri for, interment. Mr. Carr has been in the service of the Monon ever since it absorbed the old air line narrow guage, and previous to that time was a conductorfon the air line; hence his extended acquaintance in Rensselaer. This extended acquaintance, and the esteem in which he was held here was expressed by the following letter of condolence to his widow, sent last Friday and signed by 75 of our citizens:

Mrs. Dan M. Carr, Lafayette, Ind. Dear Madam: We the undersigned Citizens of Rensselaer, having intimately known your husband for the long period of his connection with the Monon Railway, desire to express to you our sincerest regret at his untimely demise. He was our friend in every sense of the term, and as such we mourn him'. The ways of providence are past finding out. It is our duty to submit, not to criticise, and we can only express our condolence and sympathy for you and your orphan children and our expressed regret at the death of our friend and brother.

FROM WHEATFIELD. D. B. Nowels and family, of Rensselaer, will board with Mrs. McNeil, ofsouth Wheatfield, during the winter. ' Kankakee and Wheatfield townships will meet, in joint institute next Saturday at Wheatfield school-house. A good and interesting program has been prepared, and a profitable day is expected. The Three 1., R. R’s profits this year will be lessened a great deal bythe expense of the fires which have been set by the engines. Another fire one week ago Monday burned about one hundred and fifty more tons of hay. The greater part of the hay burned this year belonged to Mr. Marble. Farmers are shipping in com from southern Jasper for winter feed. , A small steamer has been steaming up and down the river and Sunday took a party of 'fa'heatfieldites a ride down the river. The cold wind and the few snowflakis that fell on Saturday last, re m inded the people of coming winter, and created a demand for winter clothing. Let us hear, from the other town ships, and learn what is going on. EROM ANOTHER CORRESPONDENT. A very quiet marriage took place at the residence of Rev. P. Davis last S unday evening, the bride being the daughter of Wm. Ballinger of Walker Tp., and the groom is the youngest son of Wm. Hoile of East Walker. He is a young man of sterling qualities, energetic and attentive to business and will make his mark in whatever he undertakes. The bride is a young lady of a modest, quiet, and sweet disposition. Both of these young people have grown up in our midst and number their friends by the score among all classes who will join in the best of wishes for their future happiness and success in life.

There are several cases of sickness in and near DeMotte. Joe Tyler is going to build a new dwelling house on his lots in the McDonald addition. The firm of Warne, Tyler & Lewis are building a large carpenter shop near the shoe shop. John Sigler has purchased tbe house now occupied by Mr. Hadley and intends moving in in the spring. Miss Irene Wjfilker has been hired to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Miss Eva Hilton in school No. 2. Halleck Bro’s, have purchased a new Cut Hay press, and have it about ready for business. Sam Luce and mother and Miss Lula Spencer were at the world’s fair last week. J. F. Bruner is going to build a d welling house on his farm near the canning factory, which will be occupied by Mr. H. H. Docock, a gardener from Roseland, 111. He and his brother C. Docock, have leased 76 acres, for garden purposes; the crop this next year will be divided as forlows: 14 acres of cabbage, 20 acres of potatoes, and 42 acres of tomatoes.

Mr. and Mrs. Aleck Tyler have just returned from quite an extended visit with friends and relatives in Huntington and Wabash counties. Owing to the drouth and frost the canning factory fell short of what they expected to pack this season. They have just got through labeling and boxing their tomatoes and find that they have 1,470 dozen cans, there was no corn canned this year. This has not discouraged the people however. They are making greater, preparations than ever for a big crop next year. Aunt Fan.

OVER THE NORTHERN PACIFIC.

Editor Republican ! We are back to our Oregon home again, and have fairly began the work of another Conference year. While we enjoyed our visit to the old Hoosier State very much indeed, yet we are glad to be back to our own home and to dur cherished work. We were impressed with the indications of thrift and enterprise which we saw in Rensselaer. The amount of material improvement in the few years since we left Rensselaer, gives evidence of push and enterprise nearly equal to that which abounds of the Pacific Coast. It seems but a little while ago since I knew every man, woman and child in Rensselaer: but how different now 1 As I stood before an audience in the M. E. Church thS Sabbath I spent there, I really think that seventy five per cent of the congregation were strangers to me.

At the end of our visit we had the privilege of spending a few days at the World’s Fair. To say that we appreciated the privilege and made the best use of the limited time we could give to this great show, is but stating the truth in the case. The most marvelous thing to be seen at the Fair, I think, is the great Ferris wheel. As I stood in the shadow of this latest wonder of the world, I thought, “who but this young westerner, Mr. Ferris, would undeitake such a daring feat as swinging on an axis 140 feet in mid-air such a thing as this—a wheel 250 feet in diameter and weighing 2,200 tons? It is estimated that at least 92 per cent, of all the visitors at the fair take a ride on this revolving monster. Excuse me if you please 1 I think I will keep my fifty cents and remain on terra ftrma. Ido not want to go up so high until I must. The “White’City” is truly the wonder of the ages. I only regret that we could not spend more time there. We left Chicago Oct. 2, at 10:40 p. m. via the Northern Pacific to our western home and arrived here at noon Saturday. The day after we left Chicago, we reached the beautiful cities of St. Paul and Minneapolis, perched on the rocky bluffs of the Father of Waters.

Near to the city of St. Paul and connected therewith by electric car lines, at the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota rivers, is situated Fort Snelling, ajiistoric and beautiful place. Contiguous to the city of Minneapolis are the noted Minnehaha Falls, with their “laughing waters.” In Minnesota the landscape is most beautiful at this season of the year. The rolling hills of the timbered lands are profusely covered with the beautifully tinted leaves of Autumn. The farms are clean and thrifty looking. We pass out of Minnesota and into North Dakota by crossing Red River at Moorehead oh the east bank and Fargo on the west. Passing out of the Red River Valley we reach the broad prairies, stretching as far in all directions as the eye can reach. Surely with the development and cultivation of these broad and fertile plains, the mouths of the accumulated millions shall be filled with bread. Crossing the Missouri river near Bismarck and Maud - an we follow a crooked little stream called Heart river, for a considerable distance, when we finally pass into the Bad Lands, which to my mind constitute the most spectacular piece of landscape scenery along the entire route from Chicago to Albany. Tbe Bads Land is a dreary waste of naked hills with rounded conical forms, composed of sand or sandy clay and fine fragments of shaley rocks. In color these barren hills are gray, blue and blue and red and seem carved in a grotesque manner. They look as though they might be hugh ash piles of American cities which have perished from the earth in the flames. Passing into Montana we soon come to Glendive, where we touch the most beautiful river I ever saw—the Yellowstone, along whose banks we travel a distance of 340 miles, until we reach Livingstone. At this point we are just 52 miles north of the famous Yellowstone Park. Between Livingstone and Helena we pass through the Bozeman tunnel which is 3,600 feet long, the bottom of which is 5,565 feet above the level of the sea. Helena, called the “Queen City of the Mountains,” is situated in the center of a mining region, and has a population of about 15,000. It is peculiarly a western town. Leaving Helena the backbone of tbe Rockies rise across out path. This we can cross by means of the Mullan tunnel, named in honor Lieut. John A. Mullan, of the United Blates Army, who was one of the engineers when the original survey of the Northern Pacific was made. This tunnel is 3,850 feet lon& There was quite a snow on the ground as we passed over the Rockies. It is 400 miles from Helena to Spokane and the scenery is varied and beautiful. Spokane is tbe pride of eastern Washington. Leaving Spokane we bear to tbe southwest till we cross the Columbia, then soon we enter the Yakama canon. It is 75 miles through this canon and not one mile of straight track* The rocky clififts rise steep and high. on each side of us as we wind our way

M. N.

through this narrow defile. Now an extra engine is attached to our train and we ascend the Cascade Mountains under whose summit we pass by means- of the Stampede tunnel. When we are through one of the monster engines is detached, and we glide down the western slope with great speed. Tacoma, the Sound and the Columbia river where we cross it on a.ferry boat, are the only other places of much interest, We'stopped but 30 minutes at Tacoma and of course saw but little of the city. Puget Sound is a great inland sea, and makes Tacoma and Spattie the great cities they are. As we went east we crossed the great Columbia at mid-day, but we crossed it in the night as we returned. The long train is cut up into three sections and run into the great boat which glides across the river so smoothly that one sitting in the coach can not discern that he is moving. The river where we cross is two and a half miles wide. With this meager description of our trip I must close. The illness of our baby boy on the way home, marred somewhat the pleasure of our journey. We send kindly greetings to all our friends. Yours very truly. j> J. T Abbett. Albany, Or. Oct. IGth, 1893. Warner and Shead, the new grocery firm. Give them a trial.

A Good Thing to keep a< Hand From the Troy (Kansas) Chief. Some years ago we were very much subject to spells of cholera morbus, and now when we feel any of the symptoms that usually proceed that ailment, such as sickness at the stomach, diarrhoea, etc., we become scary. We have found Chamberlain’s cholic, cholera and diarrhoer remedy the very thing to straighten one out in such cases, and always keep it about. We are not writing this for a pay testimonial, but to let our readers know what is a good thing to keep handy in the house. For sale by Mayers the Druggist.
