Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Tears of Howe wore the guests of Rev. and Mrs. G. W. Ayers Thurs- day. Mrs. Tearc remained over night and the next morning, with ! Mrs. Ayers. went to Nebraska City, the latter lady returning in the afternoon by way of Auburn. The Auburn city council is cer tainly a business-like body of men. At a recent meeting one of the questions debated at length was whether they would allow a bill of 50 cents presented by one of Auburn's enterprising citizens for burying three dead rats that had laid in the streets until they became offensive to eyes and nose. The bill was fi nally disallowed. Another ques tion that caused lengthy discuss ion was whether the city would have a piece of sidewalk that hud been overturned Holloween night put back at the expense of the city, or require the owner to put it back. This was left unde cided and the walk left in the street. Brownville may have its mine, with coal and iron and all sorts of other metals and min erals ready for the hand of man to exhume and transform into wealth. Jesse Ellis, residing two miles south of the historic Nebraska town, has come upon a most cur ious geological or mineralogical formation which he believes to be of value. In a letter to the Star he describes the formation verv carefully. The letter has been turned over to Prof. Erwin Hinckley Barbour, head of the department of geology at the university, and Mr. Ellis will receive a learned opinion, with possibly a visit to his place by the geologist. a . t Mr. mills soys there is six inches of bright rust over the layer of what he believes to be iron ore. Under this is a deep blue rock and a steel colored shale which is very hard. The rock looks like blue marble or gpanite. Right underneath, says Mr. Ellis, is a formation of petrified stratum, three or four inches thick, which has a grain like wood, the grain running up and down. It is very full of glass, he says, which breaks out tin small chunks, and is of a deep blue color. It is very easily split up and down, and is very hard. Any of this will heat red hot, he says, very red. This vein starts in from the creek like the coal vein at Peru, except that Mr. Ellis feels that he has a good prospect for min eral and is anxious to get samp es of his ore analyzed by state geologists and chemists. His coal lead, while good, he does not believe to be extensive enough to make it worth while to mine for it. The other form ation, however, extends back in to the bluff an indefinite dis tance.

Consolidation of School Districts A meeting has been called by County Superintendent Carring- ton, to bo held at the opera house in Nemaha Monday, Nov. 18, at 8 o'clock p. m., for the purpose of discussing the question: Shall districts No. 33, 35. 36, 37, 59 and GO consolidate, and build a large twelfth grade high school in Nemaha? Supt. 0. J. Kern of Winnebago county, 111., will lec ture on consolidation, using ster eoptican and showing pictures ex plaining how the plan works in Illinois and Ohio. Everybody in these districts invited. District No. 33 is Happy Hol low, two and one-half miles north of Nemaha; 35 is the school in the bottom three miles northeast; 3G is the Nemaha district; 37 is Maple Grove, two miles north west; 59 is Champion, four miles southwest; 60 is Larkin, three miles southwest. As we understand the proposi tion, it is to establish a twelfth grade school in Nemaha, just what they have in Auburn, and do away with these outside dis tricts. Enclosed wagons will go after pupils living very far from the school, going after them in the morning and return ing them after sohool. No tui tion, of course, would be charged any pupil living in the consoli dated districts, and they would have the benefit of just as good schools as Auburn has. We be lieve the plan is a good one, and hope to see it adopted. What Nebraska Soil Can Do There has been much said about what Nebraska soil can raise, but from Talmage comes tV.e best story backed up with good substantial proof as to its truthfulness. H. G. Tait, who resides on what is known as the second table land along the Ne maha river, planted eleven acres of corn in the spring and his sons planted larger tracts. This eleven acres was tended by Mr. Tait according to his ideas of farming, and recently he had his corn husked and cribbed and he finds that he has eleven hun dred bushels of corn from the eleven acres, which is 100 bushels to the acre. That what his sons planted was not so good, because after they had plowed it and laid it by after a heavy rain fell and they never stirred the ground This is the biggest yield of corn that we have heard of in this section of the state. William Gehm, who resides in the city, did nearly as well from the five lots he farmed during the season. Jle raised two crops of potatoes from the same ground and each was a large one. He dug the first crop early and sold it and prior to digging it had planted potatoes vi ii .i iDeiween xne rows ana tie second crop was growing when the first crop was dug. He never allowed a weed to grow but kept stirring the ground at all times and the result was 1 that he raised more potatoes in i i ....

The exoneration of Prof. Sear- son of the Peru normal school by ,a jury in district court at Auburn from serious, charges preferred by a young woman pupil of the scnooi win De source oi sincere gratification to the friends of Mr. Searson everywhere, none of whom ever believed that the charges were founded on any shadow of fact and all of whom knew Prof. Searson to be incap able of the offence charged against him. The evidence pre sented at the trial however in dicates to the observing eye that there are some busybodies connected officially with the Peru institution who will not hesitate to expand a dangerous scandal from the most flimsy pretext and the be3t interests of the school will demand that all such should sever their connection with the school without delay or have their connection severed for them by short and sharp official action. A co-ed school like tho Peru Normal is a dan gerous place for an official scan dal-monger who is ready to be lieve and circulate anything about anybody, regardless of proven character and years of clean, upright and manly life.
