jumped cut of the wagon, and iu light

The News bears th.it quite a pan
icky feeli-.ig has been brought about
at Nebraska City over something very
simil ir to t-matl pox, and the whole
town is being vaccinated. The dis
ease is said to have been brought
from Texas. We trust they will not
have the serious time we had in this
city a few j ears ago. Some think it
is only chicken pox. Ours was Ger

Crnm Stewart h-ad been reading of
the cipture of the Spanish islands so
ho filled ur with extnict of corn and
armed with a machete or corn knife,
he bolily ventured down to the island

oridge. The colonel was not sleeping
in his trencnes, and the valiant Stew
art's coupe ue main failed at the first
charge. His threatening altitude and
noi-sy war whoops caused the owner of
the mesne much vexation and he is

Gov. llolcorab spoke at Schuyler
1? st night in the opera house, and al
though that town has been strongly
demopop the hall was not half full,
we are informed by a gentleman who
was present, and that the audience of
150 boys, men and women gave a very
chilly reception. The expleded doc
trines it is found like powder that lias
once been used, cannot be used again
to ; dvanlage. Bogus reforms from

The Iowa telephone company, which
controls the telephone exchange at
Gienwood, has a big suit on its hands
at Shenandoah, whero suit has been
brought for $10,000 damages by the
paruts of a young man who was re
cently killed by coming in contact
with a 'live" wire. It soems the tele
company had allowed an old wire to
remain suspended fiom a pole which
upon being connected with an electric
light wire in some way had caused the
young man's death. A similar acci
dent was narrowly averted in Glen
wood several months ago, and the
moral is to beware cf wires, especially
in wet weather. Gienwood Opinion.

It turns out that Harry Stevens the
man who worked in the shops here lor
some time, and who forged two checks
at Gienwood as report- d in this paper
at the time, was a bad egg. He had
teen out of the peuiteutiary ody a
short time when he came here to
work. Nothing has baen heard from
him since he left Gienwood, except
that he was seen ij Lincoln the next
day. ihe chances for his capture are
slim.
