Remington Gossip.

A Union reporter write* under date of Hay Hlh, that the parties who were engaged In the recent ■hooting affray we*l of Remington are a* follow* Two eon* «♦ Jame* Gray, a sqn of John. Z. May, two iona of Jonathan Rank and Ed* ward Barkley. 4 One of the Grays was in the jaw, and th e oilier one is compelled lo travel on crntcbep, having'been wonndyd in the lege. Mr. May’* son was shot in the groin, and it was thought at first was most aartoualy wounded, bathe is around again and has gone to work. Mr. Rank’s bays are all right, their wounds proving to be only trifling. Ed. Barkley was Durnt in the hip, principally, bat will be well in a few days. Censure does not attach so strongly to Frank McMannos now as it did at first, since it is learned that the shooting waa not done till the third night’s disturbance. He was hasty, however, and ought not to have attempted to take the law into bis own hands. No arrests have been made aa yet.

The corporation election in this place resulted in a republican victory, the entire board of trustees being of that persuasion. Some of the firey democrats tried to bulldose the board into appointing; a marshal hut at last accounts were not likely to succeed. With what dogged pertinacity a democrat will hold to the shadow ot a chance for an office! An astronomical observatory in the western confines of town is very attractive to many of the inhabitants. The shades of evening scarcely begin to settle down before scores of men, old and young, take up positions in front aud rear of the observatory and elevate their instruments. Is it not strange that they do not select some elevated point lo look from? And stranger yet, no two of these scientific gen tlemeti seem to agree as to tiie heavenly objects, but point in different directions. What are they looking for? I never heard of solar eclipses after night, did you? Do astronomers generally use smoked glass to look at stars before they are up? However, nocturnal eclipses of the sun may occur, and I judge they do, because so niuuy of these gentlemen are so deeply interested in making observations. But, pray tell me, does bop-beer confined iu junk bottles, with only an inch bole to look through bring the stars down? or does it serve to elevate tire amateur? This is a profound study and I think the deep drafts taken in breathless suspense by these Hoosier scientists thirsting for knowledge and netting it thus ought to provoke a solution of the mystery they arc engaged in, or lead other noble minds to follow their example, as no doubt it will. Would it not be well for our public spirited county commissioners to make a liberal donation i\.r the erection of a more commodious building for au observatory, and the introduction of better instruments {'no* of greater magnitude, but with modern improvements) than these hand grenades? Prof. Connor cannot keep up such 0 corps of learned scholars with all the* appliances, though they are simple, much longer, and he ought not to be expected to contribute to the public good with so small a return. But public servants have always been neglected. Question: If a man or .boy will give twenty cents to look at these shifting scenes and boast that it pays, how much more is it worth iu sport and profit to pour good cool water down a ratho!e till the vermin squeals tor dear life?

Valparaiso papers gave an acconnt last w’eek of a sail ami frightful accident which occurred at that place on Saturday night of week before last. John and Thomas Howe, both young men and weiTfcnown residents of the “Vale,” mounted a freight traiu intending ioride part way home, and in attempting to-jump from the top of one oar to another while »h« train was in motion, the latter slipped Mild fell between the cars, p.*rt of the train pausing over his body rutting off his legs about the liips, severing them from the body. As s'obn h« possible the train was stopped and the poor fellow’s brother and the hrakcman ran back to the scene of the accident and found that fig was dead.

Setting Milk.

I con say, after a good trial, I am satisfied with thu “deen-can system” .and would recommend it where one of the three things necessary are at hand. 1. A good, cool spring of water, of easy access. 2. A good well of cool water. 3. Plenty of cheap ice. A few years agO I had to adopt some different system from th** 00 turnon pan, and made considerable inquiry before deciding, snd, as the deep can system could be tried with the least expense, I adopted it. The result was a No. 1 article of cream and butter that sold at the top of the market at Indianapolis, Lafayette and Chicago, and was successful at the fairs of tins section. With tnilk from a mixed lot of cows (some very inferior for butter) I made 17 lbs. 2 oft. of No. 1 butter from sixteen cans of milk, of 27 lbs. per can, which was 1 lb. of butter to 25$ lbs. of milk. I let my milk stand 36 hours, skimmed it sweet, let the cream stand until slightly acid, then churned, at about GO degrees. 1 had a well with wind pump attached, a tank set adjoining, water was run from milk tank to stock lank, water stood 16$ inches deep in tank. Cans 8 inches in diameter ami 18 inches deep, cost $8 per doz. from IX tin; can be made by any tinsmith; will lake from 1$ to 2$ cans per cow (according to the quantity of milk they give). We used a commongal vanized son]* ladle to skim with; be sure to skim deep enough. The water varied from 48 to 55 degrees. The advantages are: 1. Cheapness, not Gosling more than pans, there being no patent to pay for. 2. General ease of application and of handling and ot washing, and,last, but not least, tiie uniform good results. I kept one can of milk 60 hours sweet, and at the time the thermometer was up to DO degrees, and had two quite heavy iljuuder showers. Tiie latter never appeared to affect the milk in the tank. Don't make tank larger than is needed to accommodate your cans. Any one who trys it will not be likely to return to the common plan. If further light is needed 011 this plan it Call be furnished. No patents. — Rensselaer Cor. Jnter-Ocean.

What Men Need Wives For.

WTnt dots a man want :t wife .for? It is not merely to sweep the house, and make the beds, and darn the socks, uud cook the meals chiefly that a man needs :i wife. If this is all, when a young man calls to see a lady, send him into the pantry to taste the bread and cakes she has made, send him to inspect the needle work and b>*«i making; or pul a broom into tier bauds, and send him to witness its use. Such thing* are important, and the wise young man will look after them. But what the true man next wants of a wife is her companionship, sympathy and love. The way of life has many dreary places in it, and man needs a companion to go with him. A man is somotinu-s oveitakcn with misfortune; he tueeis with failure and defeat; trials and temptations beset him; and lie needs,one to stand by and sympathize. lie has some stern ! 'battles to U;dit with poverty, with enemies and with sin; and he needs a woman who, while he puts his arms afonnd her and feels that he has something to tight for, will .help him fight; that will put her lips to his ear and whisper words of counsel, and her hand to his heart and impart' new inspirations. All through life—through storm and through sunshine, conflict and victory, through adverse and favoring winds —man needs woman's lovp. The hear: yearns for it. A sisters or a mother’s love will hardly sup ply the need. Men may seek for nothing further than, success ip housework. Justly enough, half of tljese got nothing more. The other half, surprised above measure, have gotten more than they sought. Their wives surprise them by bringing a nobler idea of marriage and disclosing the treasury of courage,’ sympathy and love.—Air.

House Plants.

It may not be generally known among the would-be lovers of nice plants, that the east or south window is just the best place about the house to keep them. I dp not believe that flowers are aristocratic and like to be set up in the parlor, tq be seen only on reception days, or fora moment when one takes a Imrried-’trip to this best room, where the atmosphere is as dry as a*closest, and aluiost as dusty— not dirt,,hilt carpetswucp-. ings. House plants need a little atmospheric moisture—-in fact, must have it, or become sickly, and eventually die. Iu the kitchen Where the daily ineal is prepared,' this needed moisture can be supplied without a single extra step—an item Of no smali account to the tired housewife. If the floor is bare, so much the better, for its frequent washings 'prevent,much dust and keeps a cool, moist atmosphere for a time.j'OtnKhingakinto tliemighty dues so kindly provided for in the creation. — Rjcchauge.

How they Look in the Shell.

With sorrow be it Hfttd: Last Week we gave it as our oiduion, upon what we considered us vety good authority, that Craw-ford county would not he troubled at ail with grasshoppers. Wo fear m/w that we were purtiy mistaken. Last week a microscopic investigation of eggs from various localities seemed to indicate tliut they were without vitality, llut Kev. Mr. Murray took a quantity of those same eggs from the farpi of Mr. Rayles, on Lightning Creek, placed them in damp earth, and kept them in a warm plaee iu ids house. At first they seemed tilled with a watery substance, which most people take as an indication that they are rotting, but they soon began to dry and become hard; tiien the outer coating scaled off, leaving only a ttlm-like covering, which was semi-transparent. In this condition, placed under a microscope, they reveal the form of tiie embryo grasshopped Even in that tiny shape, his mouth, eyes and legs were well developed, and we fancied that he looked as hungry as un army mule. Everybody of whom we make inquiries still respond that there Is no danger, as the eggs have rotted; but these developments of the microscope seem to indicate that in some localities, at least, tiie little pest will hatch. Why they are so much later hatching here than in the northern part of the state, while the vegetation here is more forward, we cannot understand, llut if they do hutch in some places, and we fear now that they will, people should not devote alt their time to despair or cuss-words, while the grasshoppers eat the crops. They can be successfully fought, as has been proven iu the western . portion of the stale. While they ure young they can be killed by rolling, and when old enough to move they cun he kept from entering a field by a ditch with a perpendicular side toward the field. Greater success cau be accomplished by unity of action. In providing for helping each other the granges of each neighborhood might do a noble work. — Girard, Kansas, Press.

A Blue Glass Experiment.

Mr. IJlimley read about blue-glass until lie became converted to the doeirine. Having a hoy baby about, three months old, who lias been somewhat puny and lias given evidence of weak lungs, he had one window of his house paned with blue-gtass, and exposed him to the sun’s rays for an hour or two for several da} s. The baby was left under the blue window for three hours, at the conclusion ot which lime he got tip and went down stairs, declaring that lie'had enough of that “dog-goned foolishness.” He threw his off foot into Mr. dimity's stomach, and knocked the lower portion ol Mrs. diinloy’s chin off with his right ii>L As. Mr. Biiinley lay under the w.ashstntid* trying to decide whether lie had been struck by lightniiig or was in th« Ashtabula disaster, young Biiinley set. up such a yell that a neighbor next door, tviio has been howling for war ever since the Bth of November, went down into bis eeWnr and hid under an. empty flour barrel, under the impression that, a general insurrection had broken out. As soon as Mr. dimlev recovered sufficiently, lie procured a hammer aup smashed every pane of blue-glass he could find. They now keep young Biiinley gagged and chained to. an anvil, — id. Joseph Vu/ley Register.

A Louisvilie Cat Story.

The Louisville cat, no matter which its sex, has a philoprogenitiveness surpassing tf,iat of most other creatures, it happened, not long since, that a mature cal and her mother, both living in the same neighborhood, were both blessed with new offspring at the same time. The litter ot the oldest puss were dioVned, as were all but one of the kitten's ot the daughter, the Malthusian theory being particularly applicable to cats. Over this one kitten that escaped Jtke destroyer there is now perpetual war. she moment its mother’s back is turned, its grandmother picKs it up and runs off home with it. Then the mother goes after it and brings if back. This is repeated again and again. Thomas, the putative father of the little thing, seeing the discoid between the two females, himself seizes the cause of dispute aud carries it to place of safety. There is much clawing and yowling between tbe mother and grandmother whenever they meet', and Thomas now and then puts in a word, too. Meanwhile, the kitten seems lo be contented with either, and is thriving in i-pite ol the strife. — CourierJournal.

j. An lowa paper tells of a singular trade that was wade a few days ago near Alton, iu that state. A youug man traveling with a party of movers became enamored with the w ile of another member of the party, so ho struck up a trade with the husband, offering him a team aud wagon for the wife. The trade "as Consummated aud each took separate loads and weut ou their way rejoiciug. lie was sitting silently by her I side one chilly evening last fall thinking of something to say. Finally lie remarked, “llow sad it is; the frost has cpttye, and it will kill everything green.” Thereupon the young lady extended her hand and said in a sympathetic tone, “GoodLey,” 1 '' T •
