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.

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."
