"Gum” Pefley is over from Remington today. Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Garrison, of * Porter county, are visiting their uncle* A. C. Pancoast, and family. Mr. Garrison is one of Porter county's mail farriers and is taking his vacation. What’s the difference who discovered the north pole, so long as Jasper county people can get such big meals for 25 cents at George Fate’s Model Restaurant. Miss Arlene Smith returned to her home in Thorntown today, after a visit of two weeks with the family of Vs. F. Smith here. Mrs. Smith accompanied her as far as Lafayette. Mrs. M. D. Gwin went to Lafayette today to visit her parents, Mr. and Mrs. O. K. Rainier, and to attend the wedding Wednesday of Miss Katheryn Stanford, of Round Grove township, White county. George Johnson was in from Hanging Grove township today. He has resided for the past six years on the old Henry Randle farm. There are a good many peaches and pears in his part of the county this year. Bishop Seth Ward, of the Methodist Episcopal church, South, is critically ill at Yokahama, Japan. This information was received at Nashville, Tenn., in a cable to Dr. W. R. Lambutta, missionary secretary of the church. The department of agriculture will present at the Minnesota state fair a moving picture show with lectures by its experts on agricultural subjects. If the experiment proves a success the department will exhibit moving pictures at other state fairs. A Rensselaer party had a letter last week from Mrs. Margaret Burkhalter, formerly of this place but now living at Fort Yates, N. Dak. She was married last June to a man named John McAfee. William Donohue, who was a part of the Brown tribe that formerly had a very unsavory name here, is also in North Dakota and according to the letter received here has made a lot of money wheat farming, although he is not accused of reforming from any of his bad habits.
