BRIEF LOCAL HAPPENINGS.

FRIDAY. Mr. and Mrs. Orval Gar-riott left today for Indianapolis where they will reside in the future. W. H. Townsend of Goodland, returned home today, after a short visit with his daughter, Mrs. C. W. Rhoades. Mrs. M. E. Best, ot Brookston. who has been visiting friends here for the past two weeks, went to the home of Frank Meader, near Fair Oaks, yesterday, for a short visit. Uncle John Thompson, who has spent the summer and fall here with hi J daughter, Mrs. C. W. Duvall, left for Kansas City, this morning to reside with some of his children there. Col. Isaac W. Brown the well known bird and bee lecturer, accompanied by his wife, has gone to Atlanta, Ga., where he will talk tp the higl "chool children Tuesday. -Col. Brown has better health at present than he has possessed in many months.

■ * Spencer Vick, now of New York City, is in a hospital there with a bad case of measles. So bad, in fact, that his relatives are somewhat anxious as to the outcome, although all reports so far received are of a decidedly hopeful character. The shelving and other fixtures for G. E. Murray’s store went wrong, a While back, and the delay in their arrival has been a source great annoyance to him. They finally arrived yesterday however, and are now being placed in position. They were shipped from Bloomington, 111. Mrs. Lizzie Kaub, formerly for many years a primary teacher in our city schools, but who moved to Madison, Wis., some years ago, has been greatly afflicted with sickness for quite a long time past, but is some better now and has gone to relatives in Kansas. Her son Vernon is at Elkhart, this state, where he is doing work in the surveying line.

Mrs. Bettie Sharp had what seemed to bo quite an alarming seizure in her sickness, Thursday, and this caused a report to be circulated that she had passed away. The report was an error, however, and at present her condition is even somewhat better than it has been, and with evidently no immediate danger of a fatal termination and some hopes even lor at least a temporary recovery. Tippecanoe Post, G. A, 8., of Monticello, is advocating the election of E. B. Brown, that city, as department commander of Indiana. He had a most creditable civil war record, and is also a war historian of considerable reputation. < A checker tournament the contestants in which will be the local players who have shown the greatest ability recently, will be held this evening at the Little Indian Cigar Store. All players will be welcomed. Sheriff Stoner, of Newton county Had Sheriff O’Conner meet him at the north bound train this morning and delivered to him Peter DeYoung, wno was sentenced to 30 days in Jail, in Newton county, for stealing, and is seut over here to serve his sentence. Sheriff Stoner continued hisjourney, and iSTlhderstood to be on the track of some other supposed malefactor. Deputy Sheriff (jluhs Grant went up to Kersey today, and arrested that formerly much arrested |John G. Montz, who hiked out some time ago, a»nl left Henry Hilderbrand to paj hisTbail bond. John G. recently ventured back, and madr himself known last night by breaking into a saloon at DeMotte, while drunk.

January Ist was the date set to begin the experiment of manufacturing binder twine at the State prison at Michigan City. If the experiment proves successful it will mean the complete abolition of the private convict labor system, which has obtained for so long at the state prison and the reformatory. Either the court house storms are all over, in Newtoip, county, or there is now a lull between storms, for there is not much doing in their circuit court at Kentland, this term and Judge Hanley has adjourned the court until the third Monday, and returned hojne. Today himself and Mrs. Hanley are visiting relatives in Chicago.

Uncle Wallace Murray and wife have shipped their go to Stokes, Oklahoma, along with those of their son-in-law, Sam English; and they are going out there with himself and family, next week. The winter climate here uses Uncle Wallace pretty badly of late years, and he hopes to bave"better health in_A)klahoma. He is uncertain whether they will make their permanent home there or dot. New entries, or at least new exhibits, keep adding to the extent and interests of the poultry, and pet stock show; even if it is too late for any prizes to be awarded. Among these new features are quite a number of coops of poultry, of various kinds, a pen of pigs by Ross Harmon, and a St Bernard dog by John Gwin, which is about t*he same size, thongh evidently of qu’te a different breed, as the Baughman horse. All together, the show is a very fine, one and will probably increase still more, be fore it ends Saturday evening. It would be difficult, to compress in the same number of words a more comprehensive or a j aster tribute to the Repablicau party than the following words of Gov. Hanly:

“For almost half a century the Republican party has been to the American people the most efficient means within their reach through which to express their convictions upon political questions or to achieve results in governmental affairs, They have used it as an instrument to accomplish great things in behalf of free institutions, in the development of resources and o the commerce of the country, and in the upbuilding of its citizenship. Through it their ideals have been realized and their hopes fulfilled. Its platforms have expressed their thoughts more nearly than the utteranoes of any other political party, and its deeds more nearby square themselves with their purposes and their aspi rotations.” When the McCoy bank went bust the Rensselaer Fire Company had a little over S2OO of hard earned and harder saved cash in the bank, which they were saving up for possible emergencies, such as one of them being hurt, or otherwise needing help. 4t their regular meeting Wednesday evening, they were officially informed that the company had dVawu their 20 per cent, dividend on the S2OO, and in their joy thereat, they unanimously voted to have a celebration. They therefore proceeded to the Milliron restaurant and blowcd themselves with ice cream and cake until they could blow no more.

SATURDAY Miss Mabel White, of Marion, re turned home today, after an extended visit with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. F. W. White. Mr. and Mrs. A. have returned from several weeks visit with relatives in Chicago and Queen City Mo. Mrs. E. B. Lath rap, of Urbana, Ill.j returned home today, by way of Indianapolis, after a visit with her oousin. Miss Ara Glazebrook.

Trustee Chapman aud Messrs. S. P. Thompson, Frank Foltz, and Walter Porter went to Hammond this biorning, to take some of the still unsettled McCoy bankruptcy matters. Dr, J. T. Clymer, a well known physician of Mouticello, died at that place Wednesday night of a heart trouble, after a very # shor sickness. He Vras about 52 % years old. Mr. and Mrs. A. J ii Bellows left Thursday fbr Chicago to visit their daughter Mrs. Murphy, they will also visit~at other ’points the next two months before deciding on a place to reside the coming year. —Remington Press. Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas Schmitter the latest bridle couple, arrived Thursday night from their trip to Chicago. They are staying with her parents Mr. add Mrs. R. H. Grow, until they can arrange to begin housekeeping for themselves.

The Lafayette papers announce that a special train will come to Rensselaer Tuesday, to bring the Tippecanoe delegations, and the whoopers for Henry Marshall, to the Republican organizing convention to be held here that day. The State Fair board will hold a meeting Jan. 31 to revise the premium lists for next year. Many people of the state are interested in the State fair premiums and the board usually receives numerous suggestions for the different departments.. About $25,000 will be offered in premiums this year. . .

Crown Point- got ten inches of snow last Saturday, where’Rensselaer drew bare ground,. and it now claims to be the snow storm center of Indiana. Rensselaer will cheerfully grant them that distinction but will give them a run for their mercury on coldest weather, when the next hard freeze comes. Kentland Enterprise: Jasper conn ty-paperasuggest the advisability of electing Abraham Halleck of Rensselaer , County Chairman. As a matter of course it is of no concern to Newten county republicans who may be selected to head the committee of a neighboring county, yet the Enterprise cannot pass the suggestion by without saying that Abraham Halleck would make a fine Chairman. He possesses the energy, tact and get there qualities necessary for a good chairman.

Fftwler Republican: A Lawyer— The talk about Dan Storms losing vast sums at poker is wrong. An old hay mow poker shark who is in a position to know told me SBOO is the most Dan ever let go of at one sitting. I sat in for about five minutes at the old Bates house and it cost me $l2O and I was something of a poker player too. I-took the next train back* to Fowler to practice law and economy. Crown Point Register: The gang of surveyors of the new Chicago, Indianapolis & Evansville railroad, under Chief Engineer Fred Gray, struck town agaiu Tuesday and resumed the work of perfecting" the profile of their route. It seems probable that they will locate on their first line and the work of securing the right-of-way is likely to begin soon, and ;everythiug made ready for construction work as soon as the weather will permit in the spring. T. A Crockett, of southeast of town, has concluded to quit haid work, and move to town, and will occupy the John Greeafield property, in the east part of town. Tom’s son George work his farm. Mr. and Mrs, Greenfield will not j return to Colorado, which has been their home most of the time for some years, but instead will try country life again ou their old home fatm, a few miles northwest of town. Mr. Greenfield will not try to work the farm, but rent it out to the neighbors.

Remington Fress: The commissioners at their January session last week ordered an ele:tion to be held iu Carpenter, Jordau and Marion township on Feb. 20th, on the proposition to gravel the 3 miles of road throagh Jordan township. This was petitioned for last fall, and there is a feeling that it would be the ohly way this bad piece of road can ever be fixed. The cost distributed through the

3 townshipsjwould not l?e heavyj and we believe the measure should '‘have hearty support. And now-George Ade is to have a town named in his honor. The town has already been established, and is on the new railroad through Newton comity, in Washington township, six miles qorth of Kent laud, aud is the only town in mat old, rich and populous township. At present there is only a depot there but a Keutlaud firm is about to build an elevator there, beginning work next week. Aide was selected by the vice-presi dent of the New York Central, who is a great admirer of Ade’s writings.

Congressman Brick has called attention to an erroneous impression which has gone out concerning his pension bill, one of the most importaul measures yet introduced in Congress. The impression has become general that his bill means from §6 to §l3 a month pension ac-

cording to the measure of disability. This has been and is now the law. Mr. Brick’s bill proposes to give every soldier 62 years of age or over a minimum pension of sl2 per month and every soldier’s widow the same amount per month. This is .the bill which the G. A. R. recommended at its national encampment. John G. Moritz, whose arrest t Kersey Friday, was mentioned in that day’s items is now safely bihind the bars of the county jail, _an&likely. tojstay there until after his trial at least, for having forfeited his bond before it is not likely that anyone else will trust him to that extent again. The charge he is arrested on is for an assault committed last April. The smashing of a saloon at DeMotte which brought him into the light of publicity again, and so resulted in his arrest, seems to|have been the result of a general row there, Thursday night. It was the Granger saloon, and it was pretty well smashed up, and looked like Carrie Nation had been there with her hatchet.

MONDAY. Billy McColly, another of the parties charged with gambling by B. Brown of Barkley, walked up to the Squire’s office, Saturday evening and plead guilty. He was fined a liver and costs, or about $12.65 in all, which he paid. Members of the Sew Club and other ladies are getting up a fine dance for Tuesday night, at the Armory, It will not be strictly along the lines of a leap year dance, although the ladies idvite their company, and also pay the expense. Aecordi ng to the Brook Reporter, a grand jury will be called in New ton county during the present term of court, much to the surprise of nearly everyone. The Reporter intimates that the books*of certain outgoing township trustees are likely to come under the grand jury’s scrutiny.

It is a foregone conclusion that A. Hal leek will be elected Republican county chairman, here Tuesday, without opposition. As to the District Chairmanship, that is a more difficult matter to forecast. At present, Henry Marshall, of Lafayette, seems to be very formidable, but it is not unlikely that some of the claims made for him will not be realized. That our man, G. A. Williams, will be in the running is very certain. Peter DeYoung, the young man from Newton couuty now serving a 30 days’jail sentence here, was one of two who were convicted of stealing a cow hide, and for which offense a cowhiding would, it would seem, have beeu logical punishment Besides his jail senteuce, he also had a fine of $25, which he paid. He is said to belong to a good family aud that this is his first offense. Jlis companion, Elmer Allen, got off with a $lO fine.

Sanday was a record breaker in the matter ot equability of temperature. Thus, there was a change of only 3 degrees during the whole jjjeriod from Saturday evening to Suuday evening, the range being from 32 to 35 degrees. Almost as unusuai as this equability was the sudden big jump upwards which followed it, the increase beiDg from

35 to 50 degrees during last night. That a big drop in temperature will follow the present rain and high temperature, is pretty safe to predict. Mrs. Robert Lefler, of Wabash, returned home today, after a short visit with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Murray. : The great German liver regulator, silver thread sauer krauf, at John Eger’s. --- ~—- ■ Good meats, carefully selected, properly butchered, and at right prices. City deliveries.

Shield your daughtermother. My treatment is not a man medicine— I not a harsh drug or vicious tincture, but a pure, ; powerful, yet gentle remedial agent which I cures ana has cured thousands of cases of diseases of women—disturbed parts, displacement, enlarged channels, falling o! the womb, heavy j menstrual loss and clotting, painful periods, scanty flow aud sharp, darting pains, dull aches, i bearing down feeling, aching groin, whitish ] discharges and the myriad delloate disorders > which bring anguish to our womankind. These are the afliictions cured in thousands of authenticated cases by Mrs. M. Bummer’s Remedy for women—cure# which are recorded —cures that keep cured. In fact and in truth. I And in every one of aJI these cases I sent the firoof test treatment complete and free, sbsoutely, every penny of the expense was mine. , not one single cent was paid for by any one—except by me alone. 1 wilt do as much for you, my Meter, lust as much for you as for any other —no matter who you are, or where you are, or bow poor or bow rich. That makes no difference to me—my sister. Give yourself (your ailing bodily self) the benefit of jronr doubt, my sister, not the burden of ft.
