Take Your Home Paper.

An exchange says: “It is your local home paper that reports your birth, publishes your marriage anti chronicles your death. To the city journals, the forty-Jageconpendiums of the daily happenings of the world, you are not even a cipher. To get the least notice from them you must gteal (100,000, commit an astrocions murder, or have a half dozen living wiyes. Bat your home paper watches over you with solicitude at all times. If you are sick it is sorry and hopes you will soon be well, It tells when you come and when you your bouse burns down and when you build a new one—when your Peter has the mumps and your Mary the measles and what little Johnny weighed upon his arrival. Take the large city, papers if you are interested in Africa, butif you want your orography take your home paper.” To this might be added: Pattonize its advertisers. No local 'paper, with necessarily limited circulation, could exist on its subscription list alone. Advertisers make it possible to run a local paper. A man who is liberal in his advertising is liberal in his dealings with customers. A business man who seeks to reap the benefit of the liberality and enterprise of others while pinching the nickles that happen his way, will show the same narrow minded parsimony in "‘dealing with his customers. Patronize the liberal advertiser.

To Close at Seven.

The leadiog dry goods and clothTng' - merchants have not-only expressed a willingness, but a strong desire to close their stores promptly at seven o’clock every evening/ except Saturday. This is a move in the right direction, and we feel that it should be encouraged by the citizens of Rensselaer.

Heretofore the merchant’s business has been a drudgery, compelling him to be at his store at break of day, and remain until 8:30 and 9:00 p. m. This is all perfectly useless. It is a noticeable fact, that the night trade, what little there may be, is carried on mostly by people who could just as well do their shopping during the day, when they can often receive much more satisfactory treatment from the merchants.

And besides, the new order of things will not only permit the emplojers to spend their evenings very enjoy ably with their families at home, but will greatly benefit the clerks. The knowledge that a club, recently organized for the study of “Shakespeare” is composed almost wholly of clerks, is sufficient guarauteo of their ambition, and did they have their eveuings for such work, they could in many ways broaden their views and enlarge their ideas. They now have no time to read or study as they should, and have few chances for social intercourse. Many of them are young men who are interested in politics, and they should be given more time to study the leading questions of the day in that line. We understand that if the above merchants close at that honr, the other mercantile houses will make a stroDg effort to do the same. l; We are glad to see it coming and trußt that those interested will use their influence to “push it along.”

ADDITIONAL LOCALS.

Elvin Overton will leave to-day for Lebanon to visit relatives. The county correspondence and some other local matters, will be found on an inside page, this week. Miss Mary Hoyes returned Tuesday from a njonth’a v isit in Clinton county and other points in central Indiana. Mr. and Mrs. G. K. Hollingsworth left yesterday for a two weeks’ trip in the south, including a Visit to the Atlanta exposition* Brick laying on the Presbyterian ch uri h has been dshyed again, by non-receipt Of tut stone; but is now underway agaih. May and December were in a headend collision this week. Monday was balmy as May and Tuesday as bleak as December. Owing to the carelessness or neglect of the Cbicage dealers, or of the railroad, certain supplies necessary to our publication this week did not reach us on time, and hence some delay In issuing the paper.

The Daughters of Rebekab lodge here has been inceasing at a phenome-, nal .rate for quite awhile back and at their last meeting last Friday night they took in TO new members at one swoop. Thq Remington degree staff which is very proficient in that line, did the work. Geo, H. Healey, until lately with the Mo., Gazette, is now in Rensselaer for a short time, visiting Ida mother and and baby, who preceded him here, some time /ago. He is now in the town writing up and illustrating business, and exp sets, to go south in a short time. The County Sunday School Convention held here last Saturday and Sunday, was a great success. The Saturday’s sessions, in the Christian church, were well attended r while those of Sundiy at the M. E. church, were crowded. The Sunday schools outside of Rensselaer were represented by about 50. delegates, from Remington and the north end.

Intelligence wasreceived yesterday of the death, at Marvin, Kansas, last Friday, of Mrs. C>ndirilla Wilson, wife of Reuben B Wilson, of tvphoidmalarifd fever, after abon' five weeks’ sickness Mr. and Mis. Wilson w a re s old residents of Rensselaer and Jasper county and went to K-nsiiS only a few yea*s ago. The illlictedhus hand and chit Iren will have the uni versal sympathy of their many friends in this vicinity.

The prize fight which was men' tioned last week as reported in preparation was “pulled off” Saturday night, or ra»htr Sunday morning, iu the “Wild West’s” show tent, about a mile and a half west of town, and it proved to be a transparent fake. The plaee where it was to come off was kept a secret for fear of interference of law officers, until after six o’clock Saturday evening, when the word | was passed around among the sports ' and would-be sports, with the result ! that about 100 persons each paid a dollar to see a couple of men go through die pre-arranged motions of , a mock prize fight. The principals l were Bob Costello and Jake Welsh, the Utter reputed to belong at Cin- , cinnati. They went through seven rounds, with 4 ounce gloves, and ! while most of the spectators agree that it was a very pretty exhibition of sparring skill, both took good care , not to hurt or get hurt. In the seventh round Welsh seemed to get a heavy blow on the chin, and went down on his bands and knees, and did not get np until after time was called, and the fight was given to Costello. This termination of the i J fight was exactly in accordance with 1 a “tip” that was given out to eer- | tain favored parties beforehand. The I whole thing was a fake.

The “prize fiditeis” have gone hence to catch another crop of suckers. is but little doubt but that they make a regular business < f going shout putting up f ke fights like tbat'of last ha turd ay ibght. 'lime has been a go d deal of exeitem<utiu John Wolfs neighborhood, in Miltoy Tp., on account of siekmss iii Wolfs ai d two neighboring families. Mr. Brinton’s and Mr Mr. Smith, ana lhe people were afraid of diphtheria, scarlet fever etc. and closed their school. Nme in Wolf’s family wgre reported dowD, at once, out Dr. Alter, who visited them Monday, found them all up and able to eat. Ssveial of them did have tons litis and Mrs. Wolf some stomach trouble. In the Briutoi family it is said the Remington physician, who attended, found cases o f scarleiina, which of coarse justifies some alarm in the neighborhood.
