A section hand was killed at Pa cific Junction yesterday morning. The man had secured work of the section foreman and commenced work at 8 o'clock ami was killed at 9:45 near the coal chute. The remains of the late Captain Edward Donavan were laid at rest in the Oak Hill cemetery yesterday afternoon. The Masons and G. A. R. turned out in a body and accom panied the remains to their last resting place. The funeral of Mrs. J. M. KoberH occurred at the family residence this after noon at 1 o'clock. The remains were followed to Oak hill cemetery where they were laid to rest by a large number of sympathetic friends and neighbors. The following item is clipped from the Heatrice Express: "Two runaway boys from I'laitsmouth were lodged in the city jail last night and will be held until their parents or guardians are notified and direct what disposition shall be made of them. Their names are John K'utter and Oscar Shubert, aged VI and 13 years respectively." HAS HE SKIPPED? C. MWIckersham has osYet Failed to put In an Appearance. Three weeks ago "today II. M. Gault took charge of the jewelery stor" run by C. M. Wickersham, in uiiiieof his wife, S. L. Wicker . ,.u. Since then Mr. Wickersham ..in.! he was going to settle up and (ive 1 lie BtOCK to uiair. lie icu his wife a week ago last ?nday to come here and settle up the busi ness, but he failed to put in appear ance, however, until last Monday morning a week ago teday he arrived on the K. C, came up aa far as Richey street and turned south going towards the shops. Hut nothing waa seen of him during the day. That night he waa seen going to hia home, but since then he has failed to show up or even send a word to let his friends know his whereabouta. Hia wife tele phoned from Hlair last Tuesday but he could not be found. The door to hia house was found open last Tuesday and the chief of police was notified and he went up to the hoiiBe and found a basket of jewelry which he brought down town While up there he found that two bedroom doora were locked and it waa thought that he might be in one of the rooms' Hia brother-in law, came down the next day and the doora were opened, but he was not found. At the request of his brother-in-law nothing was said in any of the city papers but Thk Herald has waited over week for him to put in appearance aud explain where he haa been, as hia wife does not know anything about where he is. The Herald like most of his friends believed last week that he would show up and make things all right, but we have now come to the conclusion that he has skipped. It is reported that he was keeping company with a yoking lady in Omaha. He drew the warrant from the county in pay for the court house clock and has faild ns yet to pay for it. Saturday there was a representa tive from an eastern jewelry linn here looking for him, claiming that they had let him have some jewelry as samples; that he had sold it and had failed to re-iinburse the house. A letter received yeiterday from his father-in-law, says that he thinks he has committed suicide, but that is all bosh. Just imagine a man of C. M. Wickersham's disposition, with something over a fl.Ofin in his pocket, committing suicide. J UK IIKK.M.l nan given .-ir. n h r- J fkr ouly thiug hr has done i to skip the country, and he will not show up again very soon either. Besides leaving several eastern firms "holding the sack," there nre a number of merchants in I'latts iiiouth iu the satnefix. If Mr. Wick ersham had come around last week Tub Hekald would have had noth ing to say, but aa it ia it is only a painful duty we have to perforin. Mr. Gault has informed Mr. Wick ersham's father-in hiw that if mat ters are not settled by Wednesday, he will foreclose the mortgage on the stock. CASS COUNTY FAIR. The Cass County Agricultural Socle ety Meet and Adopt a Pre mium List The Cass County Agricultural Society met Saturday afternoon in the council chamber for the first time since the new officers were elected.

Isreal Juvenile papers to-day. look out his lirt PENNILESS PIONEERS OF PLATTE. Possess Thousands of Acres and Dollars To-day-Prospects of Tobacco Farming. The following is clipped from the Omaha Bee dated at Columbus, Nebraska, aud shows very plainly that the farmers out there are not all paupers, as the Independent agitators would have the people bslieve: Your correspondent has made inquiries of a number of farmers in Platte county, and the results of the investigation proves that farm ing is a paying business in this portion of Nebraska, at least. There are very lar;p number of tillers of the soil here who came years ago without property or money, their sole possessions con sisting of helpless families and large nppetitics. Many of these men can now be pointed out who are worth over $100,000, and none can be found who has not suc ceeded gaining a competence: it would be strange were it otherwise when we consider the fact that dur ing the past twenty-five years there haa been but one partial failure of crop, caused by dry weather, and that was in 1890. It is true that small areas have occasionally suf fered by hail storms, and during the eatly days the grasshopper visitatiotis were sources of annoy ance and loss; but the loss caused by the grasshopper has been great ly by the exaggerated, owing to the fact this locality was then mainly planted to wheat and oats and but little corn was raised. The fgriiHs- hoppcr always came too late to seriously damage the wheat and oat crop, and had to be content with destroving the corn. Patrick Murray came to Platte county .ia years ago wttli compar atively nothing. Not having sulti cient means to enable him to com mi-nee farming, he went to work fur the government, putting up hay While thus engaged his brother was killed My the Indians and ins wile, wlio died recently, was se verely hurt by an arrow. Mr. Mur ray now owns 3,1X10 acres of land, which cost him all the way from $150 to $:) an acre. He owns nil nierous business buildings and residences in Columbus and is now worth $100,000. He is about to n tire from farminir and intends to pass the balance of his days in com fort. Mr. C. H. Sheldon is one of ot.i foremost citizens and president of the commercial bank as well as an extensive farmer. He does not hes itate to say that farming pays in this locality. He came here the 1st of May 18vS3. He paid from $7.20 to $10 per acre for 1,400 acres of land which could now be sold for $30. He farms !H0 acres of this, using the ballauce for pasture. Corn, wheat, oats and rye and tame grass are the crops he raises. Mr. Sheldon says that he owea his success in farming to raising grain and feed ing it. From what inquiries he has made he is satisfied that tobacco growing can be made a decided success in this valley. Coming to Nebraska, It will be clearly seen by penis ing the following article that Iowa is emigrating to Nebraska by train loads ut a time. The following is from the Monitor, published at Manning Iowa: "Last Tuesday night two special trains started over the Northwestern one from Gray nnd one from Manning for Nebraska, loaded with the effects and belong ings of a number of persona who will hereafter try nnd make a living in our sister state. Among those from Manning and vicinity we note the following, who are all among our friends: J. M. Nettleton shipped one cat load; II. C. Hays, one car; U. Lenhart, one car; A. Lenhart, one J. A. Swearingeu, one car; Carl and James Steffen, two cars; S. Grant, three cars; all going to Coleridge; K. W. Fergusen' one car, and I. O. Hinghani one car to Hartington; Hugo Grundmeier for Henry Kohr, one car to Bloomfield; C. O. Johnaou one car to Wakefield. II. A. Fines al) shipped the same day one car to Iantha, Mo. The Gray train con sifted of nineteen cars, hacli train carried u passenger coach for the accommodation of the emigiants The Monitor hones that all of these parties will abundantly pros per, but they may expectjto do some pioneering on their new farms." There are two things that have k'pt the employes and patrons of ti e H. tt M. speculating for a num ber of years. One is as to when Frank Hall, the genial white ele phant conductor on the flyer, is go ing U get married. There is a sus picion, s everal years old, still un developed, that there is a party in Hastings who knows something about it. The other source of spec ulation is as to when Tom Kyau the affable conductor on the Nehrafka City run. will quit railroading. He i. almost a charter member, having been with the H. A M. lor 21 years the oldest man on the line. - Lincoln Journal. John Clarence of Union is iu the city today. County Judge Kamsey is confined to the house today on account of sickness.
