THE RENSSELAER UNION.

Thursday, September 3, 1874.

Pidgeons are flying about quite numerous. Notions are made a specialty by the new flrm of F. J. Sears & Co. Look out for new goods at the Pioneer store. F. J' Sears & Co. If John Henry Porter will call at this office he will learn something to his advantage. Call at the brick store for dry goods, notions, hats, caps, boots, shoes, groceries, etc. A ball at Spitler’s Hall this evening rejoices the anticipations of those who delight to dance. J. H. Willey will be a candidate for re-election to the office of Trustee of Marion township. A pocket-book, containing valuables .was recently found and left at this office for identification. Mr. Pat Donnelly clipped off the top of a finger while coupling his wagon Monday morning. From every part of Jasper county we hear that people are sowing an unusual amount of wheat. Mr. Michael Eger fell from the roof “of Mr. Zimmerman’s new house, last Friday, and was considerably stove up thereby. All who are indebted to F. W. Bedford are requested to call at his place of business, and make immediate settlement. Grandfather Phineas Thornton died last Thursday, aged about eightyeight years. He was a soldier of the war of 1812. Mr, J. Horn is back again in Rensselaer and will mend guns, locks, safes, etc. Established at Erwin's □blacksmith shop, ~ Mr. John Zimmerman, the tailor, is building a neat, one story, frame •dwelling on Van Rensselaer street, north of Angelica. Judge Hammond and family went to Indianapolis Monday, to attend tiro funeral of his brother Ex-Govern-or A. A. Hammond. Oram, the dentist, may be found at Harding’s drug store, and is always prepared to do Work pertaining to his profession in a satisfactory manner. Old papers that are not mutilated for sale at this office for ten cents a dozen ; this is the cheapest and most diversified reading matter that can be bought. Col Healey attended the meeting of the stockholders of the Indianapolis, Delphi & Chicago Railroad Company at Delphi yesterday. They held their annual election. _ Lycurgus, infant son of Marion L. and Mary E. Spiller, died lust Sunday. This is a terribly alllieted family, ami has the sympathy of everybody in their oft-recurring bereavements. Commissioner's Court Convenes next Monday. As the board will probably not be in session more than four days, all matter for their consideration, to insure action, should be filed on Monday or Tuesday. The Rensselaer string band wafted sweet music for the merry dancers at; Morocco, last. Saturday. That bund is pretty difficult to get away with when the boys come down to their level best licks. It is reported that Mr. David Wyatt fell from a house he was building for Mr. John Makeever, in Newton township, last Friday, a distance of twenty feet, striking upon Some timbers be—low,and sustained severe bruises. The firm of J. I. Purcupile & Co., has taken a new partner in the person of T. J. Searsp and the firm will hereafter be known by the style of F. J. Sears & Co. They have the finest store room and most extensive stock of goods in the town. The following marriage licenses were issued by the Clerk of Jasper county, during the month of August: Luther Riley and Rhoda Hair. Henry Granger and Letitia Mosher. Tobert Buck and Ibbie A. Pullens. And bne more to parties who will not be married until after the publica- ‘ tion of this issue, and who s£u>iallv requested not to be mentioned at present. Twenty-three head of sheep strayed away from Mr. Robert Swaim, in Union township, aboutthe 20th of August? and are supposed to have gone west towards Newton county.— A suitable reward will be given for information leading to their recovery. There were two bell sheep in the flock and they were marked with a smooth crop off the left ear, and a,slit and a half crop oft' the right, except three which had a slit in the right ear. The annual session of the Jasper County Teachers’ Institute, for 1874, willhe held at Rensselaer during the week commencing September 21st.— D. Eckley Hunter, of Bloomington, Indiana, has been employed to do the principal work. Mr. Hunter’s reputation as an Institute teacher is sufficient to guarantee the success of the session. Programmes and further particulars will be issued in a few J. H. Snoddy, Supt. Pub. Schools of Jasper Co.

A Card.

My nomination by the People’s’ Primary Election for commissioner of tlie 2d district, was unsolicited by me. The main issues of the campaign are between the Democratic and Republi. can parties. I decline being a candidate for said office. My syifiptithies are with, and I desire the success of the Republican party at the October election. J. M., Wasson. Ransselaer Ind,, July 2d 1874.

Bit of a Row.

R. F. Goddard sells beer by the bottle to be drunk off from his premises- A large, red-faced, beer-drinking man, named Allen, has been working at Kelley’s photograph gallery for some time past, who has made a practice of not only drinking to excess himself, but also of getting beer.for Jack Warner, and other men, whose appetites for strong drink have obtained mastery over their judgments and better natures. Tuesday afternoon Goddard refused to sell Allen any more beer, after he and Jack Warner had drunk enough to make them intoxicated, whereupon Allen proceeded to help himself by main force. With the assistance of a bystander Allen was knocked down once or twice and putoutof the room. Jack Warner heard of it, and then he wanted Allen to “clean out the shebang.” Goddard closed up and both Allen and Jack went to breaking down the door. By this time quite a crowd had gathered around, and after the drunken rowdies had broken a pane of glass, Mr. Norman Warner made an assault on Allen, which culminated in a fight between the two ; Warner succeeded in planting some heavy blows on the ruffian’s physiognomy, but he was a little the heaviest, longest armed, and younger, and succeeded in choking Warner to the ground. Meanwhile the bystanders began to interfere when Jack Warner attenpted to keep them back until Allen should revenge himself on bis brother, but they were too many for Jack, and in less time than it takes to tell it he was down in the street a rod away pretty badly punished about his head, face and body, three or four persons having succeeded in getting in their best licks on him. Allen was taken off from Warner, a bleeding and badly-bruised up-individual, and commenced crying like a baby. Among other amusing expressions, he remarked that he "always did like the people of Rensselaer; I have been out hunting for a week, and am weak and tired out; this all comes from beer,” and he begged piteously for somebody to wash and dress his wounds. Allen was subsequently arrested and fined for breaking the door of Goddard’s place of business.

INDIANA GOSSIP.

A Unitarian church was organized at Hobart recently with thirtysix members. A large brick cooper shop is under contract at the Michigan City prison, and 200,000 brick are now being delivered at a cost of $7 per thousand, to build it. Straton Virden, a prominent citizen of Chalmers, Wnite county, was struck by lightning and instantly killed while feeding his hogs, Saturday before last. Justice Clark, of Winamac, recently sent a man to jail for whipping his wife. How is that for interfering with the innocent amusements of the people ? A boiler explosion occurred at Monticello, Monday of last week, in the warehouse of McCollum, Taylor & Hamlin. Damage] to building and fixtures about SI,OOO. Nobody hurt. Howling wolves come boldly up into the streets of Fowler o’nights and keep the inhabitants awake with their serenades. And yet this would be preferable to an everlasting thrumming upon a wheezy piano by pantalettcd maidens. The Lafayette Courier says that Judge Hammond “won for himself the highest encomiums of the bar by the clear and logical settlement of the points at issue” in a suit to set aside the case of the Valley Kailroad Company vs the Bloomington road, which he recently presided over in that city. Says the Fowler Herald: “There is a high degree of excitement in the central and western part of the county about some variety of wild beast that has been playing add, havoc among domestic animals in the vicinity of Sugar Grove. It has been seen frequently for the last three months, and seems to le becoming more bold and ferocious daily. It is estimated that it has destroyed S3OO worth of stock within the last three months. We mention: One yearling and one two year-old cplt, one calf and quite a number of hogs, for John Ross ; four calves killed and one fatally injured for Mr. Hoover; and many calves, occasionally a yearling, and any number of hogs for Mr. Sumner, and sundry of his tenants. * * * The animal is described as of a dark dun color, with a dark stiipe along the back and down the shoulders,.small erect ears, about seven feet long, with a long tail and a brush of long hair at the end, powerful limbs, making enormous leaps of twenty feet as it runs. Its tracks measure four and a half by five and a half inches in size, having'been measured by quite a number of persons. \,Of the large number who have seen it, all think it must be larger than a lynx, and from the absence of a tuft of hair on the tip of its ears, also the . ears being smaller Than those of a lynx, it is probably an American panther, or else an animal that has escaped from some menagerie in some more thickly settled part of the country and has made its way jnto the thinly settled part of this county.”

Fifteen or twenty counties organized during the present week and put Independent tickets in the field among them Posey, Vanderburg, Hancock, Stciiben, Dearborn and Newton.— lndianapolis Sun. We heard a gentleman complaining the other day, about lhe drouth having affected his corn crop. He reported that the y ield on his place would not be more than fifty bushels per acre! Can such things be and yet not ovccome our vision like a summer cloud ?— Fowler Herald. The Cass County Agricultural Horticultural and Mechanical Association’s Fair commences next Monday, September 7th, 1874, and continues six days. Five thousand dollars incash premiums are offered. Half-fare rates have been made on all railroads for carrying persons desiring to attend ; also, foijreturning, free of charge, all articles on exhibition. Secretary has our thanks for complimentary tickets.
