THE RENSSELAER UNION. Thursday, January 28,1875.

A child of Mr. Rich was buried . last Saturday. — Remington Record. Rev. Charles E. Lambert married Mr. James Slattery to Miss Louisa Howard, last Sunday. * * • Timothy and clover seed—clean articles—are kept for sale at J. H. Wood’s hardware store. There will be no religious services at the Baptist Church Sabbath morning, Rev. S. E. Rogers having an appointment in the country to fill. J. K. Pattison, of Lafayette, was in this place, Saturday, and assisted the Good Templars in organizing a degree lodge.— Remington Record. By glancing at the market report it will be seen that potatoes and apples are worth $1.50 per bushel. They are scarce at that pace.— Remington Record. Pat Lally says he did not vote for the railroad appropriation, and moreover that the person who says he did is a—well he don’t tell the truth.— Remington Record. Protracted meeting is being held at the Christian and Methodist churches in this place, and a strong effort is being made to bring sinners to repentance,— Remington Record. Norman Warner has an invoice of the Champion, an illustrated annua} paper issued by the Champion Machine Company, for distribution. Get one and read it. Meadow Lake Grange, of this county, sent .552 in cash and a box of clothing to the Kansas sufferers. The above Grange deserves great credit for their liberality. Their example is a worthy one. — Remington Record. D. B. Miller and John Conwell will .goto Kentland next Wednesday=to= perform the parts of “Joe Morgan” and “Sample Switchel,” in the play entitled “Ten Nights in a Bar-Room.” Truly their fame is spreading.—Remington Record. Mr. Beth Cox, of Lincoln, Nebraska, will please accept thanks for a couple of fine specimens of argentiferous ore from his silver mines in Colorado. Qne of the specimens is from the famous Colorado Central imine, which is ranked among the .richest lodes yet discovered. Everybody is invited to attend the festival at the Court House tomorrow night, for the benefit of the Presbyterian Church. A cake in which a gold finger ring valued at five dollars has been ba kail, will be cut into fifty pieces and sold for twenty-five cents a slice. The ring is presented by Messrs. F. J. Sears & Co. Miss Celia Wilkinson, teacher of primary department of the Rensselaer school, reports for the month ending January 22d, 1875, an enrollment of 50 pupils, and an average daily attendance of Those perfect in attend ance, punctuality and deportment weYe Benny Fendig, Leslie Clark, Gaylord Chilcote and Crillie Hutson. It is reported that a man went home /f.t about 3 o’clock Wednesday morning, and using his umbrella for a ,billia<3i-cue smote his wife in the .short rib, crying “Pool!” and sunk 'into a,sweet slumber. He has since explained to his wife that women can have no idea how the cares of business affect a man’s brain.— Remington Record. Something ought to be done for the poor* fellow who has been on our streets several times the past week. He has had his legs and hands frozen by sleeping in hay stacks, is ragged and dirty, and withal a pitiable looking object. It is the county which should take care of such as he and the Trustee should be informed as to his condition.— Remington Record. The President of the Pittsburg Board of Trade was capiased in this place yesterday. He wits pasting through on the train and the warrant •was served on him while the freight was switching. We did not hear the particulars, but from what we can gather suppose there is a general misunderstanding, with no intention to swindle on the part of the president. —Remington Record. Jacob and Isaac Sells, and a hired man, over in Jasper county, near Sutton’s mill, had a narrow escape from death one day last week. They were threshing buckwheat, and it being very cold, they kindled a fire in a hollow tree near by to warm occasionally. The tree got well to burning when it was suggested that it might burn off and fall on them, as it was leaning toward them. They put the fire out as they supposed, but it appears sparks sinouldered above where they quenched the flame, and was soon burning, The tree finally fell. One of the Sells bad his clothing nearly stripped from him by the I limbs, and the work-hand stood between two limbs close in a fork, J where a few inches either to the right or left would have been instant death. They all hustled out of that tree-top, however, without serious injury.— Lowell Star.

Many of the Granger Solons are taking their first lessons in billiards. —lndianapolis Herald. Just imagine for a moment, if you please, Senator Major and Representative Brown waltzing around a billiard table with pitchfork and hoe handles, talking abdut “scratches,” “kisses,” “caroms,” “froze balls,” “English,” “nursing,” etc., etc. Hon. Dan Miller. . '. with'samples' of bitsswood hams and paper pantalettes, put in some Down Eastscallops at the Mason last Wednesday .—TacZianapolis Herald. For several weeks past the Remington Record has advertised “Hon.” Dan Miller as attorney, notary public and champion jig-dancer; but what does he mean scalloping around the Mason House at Indianapolis with paper pantalettes ? Calvin Coppess, of Gillam township, has taken up an estray, pale red, two-year old steer, white spot in forehead, white belly and legs, crop off right ear and hole in left ear. Francis Nicholson, of Gillam township, I has taken' up a white heifer black head, black neck to shoulders, black legs to knees, James Randle, of Barkley township, has taken up a light bay filly one year old last spring. A. J. Yeoman, of Jordan township, has taken up a light red yearling steer, branded on right hip and right ear, mark not distinguishable. The railroad-company should either build more switch, or the town of Remington should pass a town ordinance prohibiting trains from obstructing the streets longer than fifteen minutes. Within the past week trains have been switching and standing on the track which crosses the street almost constantly, and last Monday evening one train occupied the track for a half-hour. Teams are obliged to stand and wait the eonven-r ■ dance of these freight conductors, also ladies, and the void weather we have experienced the last two weeks doesn’tmake it very pleasant waiting. —Remington Record. Mr. L. K. Yeoman, teacher of school No. 2, Newton townsnip, reports for the month ending January 15th, 1875> an enrollment of 44 scholars and an average attendance of 38.5. Twentyeight are reported as having lost no time. They are: William Baker, George Baker, Wesley Clemans, George Clemans, Mary Clemans, Viola Clemans, William Clemans, John Hoys, Alda Kenton. Emma Kenton. Frank Kenton, Mason Kenton, Elmore Kenton, Eliza Kenton, Clara Kenton. Lydia Pillars, Samuel Thornton, Mary Thornton, Jane Thornton, M aggie Th or nto n, Edgar Thorn ton, Lord Thornton, John Watt, Ferdinand Warne, Frank Warne, Della Warne, Effie Warne, and Stephen Brusnahnn. Miss Mattie Benjamin, teacher of the second intermediate department of the Rensselaer school, reports for the month ending January 20tn, 1875, an enrollment of 47 scholars, and an average daily attendance of 43. Those perfect in attendance, punctuality, deportment and study,, were 22 in number, nearly half of the school, which is a large and encouraging per cent; their names are, Mary Beck, Callie Beck, Lida Karsner, Louisa Platt, Mary Haley, Maggie Haley, - Nellie Reeve, Myrtie Ilenkle, Carrie Eger, Cora Zimmerman, Tilly Fendig, Charles Henkle. Henry Smith, George Yeoman, Fred Chilcote, Daniel Willey, Victor Willey, Joseph Adamson, Oliver Daugherty, Oliver Rhoads, Charles Worden and Frank W eathers.

Elder. Wm. P. Shockey, of Brownsville, (-Nebraska, visited Rensselaer again this week past, after a lapse of fourteen or fifteen years. It will be recollected that during the winter of 1858 or 1859 this gentleman .organized a r&ligious society at tnis place called the Church of God, which irreverent scoffers have nicknamed the BroadGuagers, Soul-Sleepers, No-Soulers, Kingdom-Folks, &c. The members of this organization include in their ranks some of the best most liberal minded, and prominent people of the town and vicinity; and for years it has wielded the most powerful influence of any religious denomination in the county, Rey. Mr. Shockey does mpt-ppw preach exactly the same doctrine in regard to a future existence that he did when here before. Thea,.he taught that the righteous were to possess the earth i after its regeneration by fire, and | reign as kings and priests, while the i wicked should be destroyed root and ' branch in the general mundane conflagration, so that no more recollection of them or their works would be had forever —“thus saith the Lord, amen.” But in fifteen years the Rev. gentleman has discovered that in order to have kings and priests properly provided for it is necessary to have to govern, congregations to i direct in worship, and people to pay to defray the expenses and the dignity of these establishments. Hence his theory now is a species of Univeisalism, teaching that the unconverted at death are to be resurrected’and serve the useful j purpose of serfs for the new theopxacy.

OBITUARY-SAMUEL RISHLING.

Kesolutlona of ttespect. Hall Francesville Lodcle No. 190,1. O. O. F. January 23d, 1875. Since our last meeting the unwelcome task is allotted me of chronicleing the death of one of our oldest members, Brother Samuel Rishling. who was suddenly! called from this life on the Ist li instant. The simple announcement of the demise of this brother, known personally to so many, and loved by all, will awaken in our hearts most profound sorrow. His sudden departure brings vividly to our realization the fact that life is uncertain, and warns us to be constantly prepared for that change which must inevitably take place sooner or later, and, Whereas, God in His infinite providence has seen proper to remove from our midst this brother, who has always been a vigilant and worthy member of our Lodge, ever cherishing and faithfully practicing the noble precepts of benevolence and charity which are inculcated by out (MTUF? 1 therefore, Resolved, That while we are humbly submissive to the mysterious decrees of the Grand Master, our hearts as Odd Fellows are deeply saddened bv the death of our beloved brother. Resolved, That in the death of Brother Samuel Rishling our Lodge has lost a valuable member, and the family circle a cherished companion. Resolved. That in his death we recognize the solemn fact that in the midst of life we are in death, and that the gloomy monitor of his lifeless clay—jo vice, confusion ; but to virtue, peace—is but an emblem of what we shall all soon become. Resolved, That we tender to the widow and family of our deceased 'brother our heart-felt sympathy and condolence, and commend them to the healing tide- that flows from benevolence and peace. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be presented to the widow of the deceased brother, that they be spread in full upon the records of the j Lodge, and that a copy of them be I sent to the Rensselaer Union and ' Winamac Republican for publication. 1 Approved by "the Lodge.

J. B. LEFLER
