CORRESPONDENCE

UNION ITEMS. James McClanahan is moving into his new house. It is two stories high and of modem style. Jacob Huriey has sold his house house and three lots in Fair Oaks to John McColl}', who is putting up hay scales, end is going to move there as soon us convenient. I. F. Aitei’s large barn is about finished. Barney Comer has been very sick the past week with lung fever. He is now able to be up a part of the time, but his little girl baby, 8 or - 9 months old, is very low with flux. Schools all in good running order. Literary at Rose Bud every Monday night. Preachin g every Sunday night and every other Sunday at 11 o’clock. Sunday School every Sunday at 10 o’clock.

T. H. Davisson still has the Post Office at Fair Oaks. Mr. Kessler does net appear to be in a hurry to take it. T. J. Mallatt has sold his store in F air Oaks,to Isaac Kig ht, who has taken possession and will continue to sell at the old stand. Renssela n ’•’■nnters find this a good good plM?» hunt but a bad place to find game, as three good fellows were hunting near the Iroquois all day and shot one . squirrel and one dog, and went home well pleased.

REMINGTON ITEMS.

Mrs. Gibson, whose illness was previously mentioned, died Thursday morning, aged 82 years, 2 months and 15 days. She survived her husband three years, after a wedded life of ovpr fifty-two years. She was a staunch Presbyterian, having united in early life with the United Presbyterians. Her funeral was held from the Christian church, Friday afternoon. It was conducted by Rev. McKee, assisted by Mr. Carson. Miss Sadie Wing, of Goodland, and Miss Pfrimmer, of Mt. Ayr, will spend thanksgiving with their friends the Misses Henricks. MissPfrimmer is a sister us Supt. Pfrimmer, of Kentland. Mrs. Braddock came home last week from Chicago, where she has been for several weeks. She will return to Chicago soon. From private letters received from some of our Bloomington students, we find that they are not only doing good work, but are a credit to Remington. Mrs. Ralph Bruster’s aged father is lying hopelessly ill at her residence north of town. Martin Gibson, who was here to attend his mother’s funeral, returned home Sunday noon. The juvenile choir, lately organized at the Christian church, for the evening services is an immense success. These young people sing with a precision and spirit that would make many an older ehoir proud to attain.

Mrs. Vickery and son returned home last week. She has been in Chicago since the opening of the World’s Fair. She and her daughter, Miss Theo, will soon make an extended visit with relatives at a distance. Mt. L. Black, of Denver, Colo., died very suddenly at Sheldon, Thursday, of hemorrhage. Mr. Black was well known in this vicinity, having formerly resided here. He came here a few weeks ago for a visit with his sisters, Mrs. Parker and Mrs. Burger, and while his death was very sudden, it was not entirely unexpected, ns he has been in poor health for some time. His wife and one child survive him. The services were conducted by Rev. Mr. McKee from the residehce of Mrs. Parker, Monday, at 2p. m.- His father, S. M Black, of Denver, attended the funeral.

FROM WHEATFIELD.

Too kite for last week. The German Baptists had meetings Saturday night and Sunday morning at the River school. The schoolroom was crowded on Sunday morntog. Tlure was another social, at the Moat school, Wheatfield tp., last Saturday night. Miss Jessie White is teacher.

s Mr. McLaughlin of San Pierre i buying bay in Wheatfield now. He has an agent to attend to his busi- : ness. —■ - ■ " - The fighters of Wheatfield use hot water when they want to have any great effect. Last Saturday a certain man got a cup of hot water and compelled his adversary to stand back. The sale last Saturday of the household furniture and teams, wagons, etc, of Mrs. Melser, was but slimly attended. Through the eloquence of auctioneer Graves most of the articles were disposed of but at very low prices. An eighty-five dollar organ sold for $35 and a team of horses for S4O. The Misch school, one and one half miles south of Wheatfield, James G. McGimsy teacher, last Saturday evening, Nov. 25, gave a box social for the benefit of the “Young People’s Readings Circle.”

Mr. Fendig was in Chicago last week buying holiday goods. D. B. No wels, of - the Wheatfield schools is trying to start a class in book-keeping and commercial law to meet evenings about twice a week. Every one who can, should avail himself or herself of the opportunity of acquiring the fundamental privileges of all business transactions, which are in this age so essential to success in any vocation.

It is whispered about with a tone of authority about it that there will be a wedding or more in the near future. “Let the lamps be trimmed and burning when the bridegroom comes.”

From another correspondent. The town of Wheatfield is still booming, three new houses being built by Jas. Swisher, Wm. Brown and George W. Tilton. Our old and reliable landlady Mrs. Melser, we are sorry to say is going to be the cause of some of our young me n having to pay for their board by her giving up her hotel. Wm. McNiel will be the new landlord. John McLaughlin and his brother-in-law are buying hay and as we understand have come to stay. A few more such men would be a great help to our town. We hope that they will meet with good success. Mrs. John Graves is visiting relatives in Chicago Heights. Our new livery men James ’ Clark and Elwood Davis have erected the first gas street lamp in Wheatflel(LTt looks as if they meant business. DeMotte turned loose last Monday and had to come to Wheatfied to get justice. Some of the section men on the *C. & E. I. railroad last Thursday night showed the effects of the extract of corn, so as to be carried home. It looks as if there could be men gotten to work that would not indulge in anything like that. Our able physician Dr. Vaughn, is kept busy day and night. Our little druggist, Mr. Fendig, has just returned home from Chicago, where he has been buying goods. Sim Jim.

The “Milk Church” Picnic.

WAS A GREAT SUCCESS. The picnic given last Saturday, to the patious of the Rensselaer Cream ery, and all friends of the dairying interests of this section, by Alfred McCoy, president of the creamery company, was a great success, and was attended by a big crowd. There was an endless quantity of roast beef, mutton, pigs, turkey and chicken. Also plenty of bread anc biscuits, and hot coffee, and everybody present had all they wanted to eat and several large basketsful of excellent provisions were left, which were distributed among the poor. The award of the five dress patterns to the ladies contributing the most cooked chicken or turkey was a leading feature of the affair. The names of the ladies taking the prizes, and the amount, by weight, of their

contributions, are as follows: Mrs. Chas. Yates, Ist 63 lbsMrs. Fritz Zard, 2nd.....43| “ Mrs. Maggie Grant, 3rd 23| “ Mrs. J. W. Pierce, 4th 23 “ Mrs. Theo.

By his special invitation the members of St. Joseph’s College, and the Indian School, attended in a body. The military company from the cob lege was present in full uniforms, and preceded by their fine band. The coffee and sugar was contributed by the grocery firms: 0. C. Starr, Laßue Bros, John Eger, Tuteur Bros., Warner & Shead.

FROM THE BIG GAME REGION.

Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Francis, of Big Hole V alley, Montana, are here to spend Thanksgiving with their neice, Mrs. R. W. Marshall. They came East in time to visit the World’s Fair, and intend to remain during the winter, visiting their many friends and relatives at LaPorte. Ind., and Joliet and Chicago, 111. Mr. Francis is engaged in stock raising principally, and silver and gold mining incidentally. The unsettled condition of the silver question being at present a very paralyzing incident to the mining interests of Montana, nearly all of the mines having closed down for the present. During the many years they have lived in Montana,. Mr. and Mrs.. Francis have passed through many highly interesting adventures and experiences. The mountains surrounding the famous valley where they live, is still the home of wild game, such as bear, elk, moose, mountain goats, mountain lions, el®., which furnish royal sport for Mr. Francis and his boys. One of his sons, Fred Francis, being one of the most noted hunters and big game slayers of that region. Many of the dangerous, hard-fighting and hard-killing animals having fallen victims to his skill with the ride. Some three years ago the boys built a trap of heavy Logs, having a dead-fall door attachment, and started in to capture some of the big game alive. The first thing captured was a mountain lion—a most beautiful as well as ferocious beast, which after being partly tamed was, together with a grizzly bear,

(called silver tip bear in that region) and caught in the same trap, sold for exhibition purposes at Butte. Once when they had not visited the trap for a week, they found that a big silver tip had gnawed his way to liberty through solid logs 10 inches thick. Five years ago Mr. Francis, while following a big elk, slipped on a wet stone and broke his left knee cap square across. Tins was just at night, the weather extremely cold, and he some 15 miles from home, all alone in the mountains. The situation serious, but by “splinting” his injured leg with a cane, strapped pn by his cartridge belt, he managed to stand and walk slowly and, tiiiiugh he got lost on the way and traveled many unnecessary miles, he finally reached home on the afternoon of the next day. Call on C. B Steward, agent for lots in Columbia Addition; 140 lots at pi ices from 125 to $l3O.

Ferris Caged in Benton County.

The many times mentioned Ferris, the invention crank, got over to his old stamping ground m Newton county last week, and was arrested while pointing for Ben Constable’s place, southwest of Goodland, from whom he formerly stole the horse, to pay his royalty on some of Constable’s farm machinery. He was tried in Goodland, found “insane and dangerous” and sent to Kentland. The Kentland authorities, turned him loose the next day, and he then went to Fowler to consult Judge Wiley about his royalties, was followed by Mr. Constable who got the Judge to lock him up, preliminary tu uno' be? attempt to get him into the insane asylum, 'lhe following passage from Ferris’s former history is given by the Goodland Herald:

About two years ago Ferris worked on the farm for Boj. Constable, 3.| miles southwest of town. He appeared to be honest and industrious and showed no- evidence of insanity. However,. when he left the country he took one of B*n'a horses with him. He stopped ,at Woodford, 111., and wrote back to Constable that he bad his horse and had taken it to get his royalty from Ben for his inventions used on farm machinery. The horse was recovered and Ferris sent to Watseka for trial. There he was held for eight months and finally discharged as a harmless lunatic. In a short time be again returned t>> Constable’s and attempted to steal the horse. He had in bis possession a revalverand boldly-announced his intention to confiscate the property. S. H. Dickinson happened to be present and quietly argued tire case with him while an officer was sent for. He was tried in the circuit court, adjudged insane and sent to the Rensselaer jail, where he has been for the past ten months. A few days ago he was taken before the court and released by habeas corpus proceedings. The undersigned has purchased of Th os. 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.
