CAH'f MONKEY WITH STEWART. Mloux. C'lly Men llullil Pou toon. and then "Klvj" with the Colonel. Ha Claims fha Right of Ovar Them. Inventor Parties in Sioux City have constructed a pontoon bridge on their own hook, but used Col. S. N. Stewart's pattern in build ing. The result is stated in the follow in";, clipped from Thursday's Sioux City Journal: Col. 8. W. Stewart, of Philadelphia, known by the Austrians as The River King," arrived in Sioux City Monday.Tbe colonel claims several inventions in con nection with pontoon bridges, among them the V-shaped draw, which is not on the Sioux City bridge. After looking the bridge over the colonel found E. C. Palmer, secretary of tho Sioux City and Nebraska Pontoon Bridge company, and remarked to him: "I heard you had built one of my bridges, and I thoughtl would come and see you. I hope you have plenty of funds on hand, for my bill is large, and I would like a settlement within twenty-four hours." The colonel and the members of the bridge company wrestled with the question of infringement and settlement until yesterday, when an amicable udjust nent was reached. How much the doughty in venter was paid has not trat s pired, but his eyes twinkled when he in formed the reporter that he had brought the company to terms. Mr. Palmer was not very communica tive as to the sum paid. He admitted that a settlement had been made, and said without any appearance of enthusiasm: "I suppose it is all right that the inventor should have reward. We have no liking for a lawsuit, with its expense and uncsr ta'nt'y." Speaking of another Jprojected pontoon further up the stream, for which no arrangement has been made with Col. Stewart for the use of bis inventions, the Colonel said: "Wait till they finish aud I'll make them wish that theyhad never been born. Messrs. Palmer and Mohn are nice men and I let them off easy, but the next in fringer I find I am going to crucifv." A MEW BRIDGE COMPANY. Yesterday the Northwestern Pontoon Bridge Co. was formed in Sioux City. It :s composed of S. N. Stewart, of Phila delphia, and E. C. Palmer and J. M. Moan, of Sioux City. Its object is to build pontoon bridges on the Mississippi and Missouri rivers and their tributaries. It will contain all the late patents and new inventions relating to pentoon bridges known in the Unite4 Statpg. Eight Mile Grove. 'Are you going to vote bonds!" is the question asked by almost every individ ual in this vicinitj, aqd '1 don't hardly know;" will almost invariably be the awnser. They don't seem to consider the question from a buisiness stand-point, but think how much nicer and more convciennt our county buildings would be near the center of the county than on the border. They have'nt yet considerd the natual advantages and superior qual ities Plattamoqtl) ha? over the interior cities and we want our county buildings in a place that has some prospect for Improvement.

We haye found with what little expedience we have had in corn raising that it will not pay to only split the middle as we see some of our cornfields. It is highly neccesary that we work close to the corn row and throw the dirt away from the tender plant the first plowing and then throw it back the second. I am only speaking of corn that is put in with the planter. Mr Krager lost a fine brood mare Sat turday. It is supposed that she had the colic This makes the third horse for Mr. Krager within past few months ons being a fine three year old which he had just broke to work. The third was a suck ing colt.

Observer "Mixed Pickles." J. B. Polk, than whom a better or more popular omedian does not tread the boards, opens at the Walnut street theatre for Thanksgiving week, in his comical creation of Jo Pickle, the merry practical joker, in the whimsical and satirical comedy, "Mixed Pickles," a play which may rightfully claim to be a perennial favorite. Happily it bears no resemblance to the acrobatic and variety absurdities which have for ?oma time passed current as comedies. Mr. Polk rattles through his part with rare abandon, spirit, d ish and humor, giying as he goes along, some highly artistic touches, notably that of changing f omthe harutu-scaru n Joseph to'tbe sedate Arthur, his facial expression being such as only a well-trained actor, one of de cided ability, coul I satisfactorily accom plish. Polk has a company of reputa tion and experience, and Miss Julia A. Polk, the leading lady, sings exquisitely. The Philadelphia Hjrald." Sacure your tickets now, for it will be the last theatrical performance at the opera house until about September Is, so don't fail to go to the opera house next Saturday night. Elm wood Notes.

Enter talnment at the Opera House- The prospects for a beautiful day to morrow to observe the sacred custom of honoring the country's noblest dead are very good. Business will be generally suspended and the program of the day carried out as published elsewhere in the Herald. The W. It. C. have planned to close the day with an appropriate enter tainment in the opera house at 8 o'clock in the evening. The Woman's Relief Corps invariably prepares a program for their entertainments which can be highly appreciated and la worthy large attendance. It will be interesting to many citizens to know the design of this organization of ladies and to whit jin'wo r.r M earnings of their efforts. The oriijiz-i-tion raises funds for the supporting of widows and nurses, and to-morrow's en tertainment is to raise money to distibute locally by the W. R C, to be sent to the headquarters to forward the building of the home. Money cannot be spent to a more charitable purpose, or where it will bring better returns of thanks from grateful hearts. The W. R C. invaria bly g'ves splendid entertainments, which merit all the admission foe charged. At to-morrow's entertainment the Episcopal c'loir w'll sing, there will be 'some fine declamations and forty pret'y little chil dren will decorate and dedicate a immu- ! meat to the unknown dead. The admis sion will be 25 and 15 cents, and. chil dren 10 cents. Non-Partisan Convention Rates.
