Tho road from Brownville to

George L. Miller, editor of tho

an eloquent and instructive oration on
the Fourth.

Jake Rnuschkolb has circulated
posters announcing that tho Fourth
will be celebrated nt his place in the
city in a style to accord with his idea
of patriotism and a good soolul time.
Work Is tolerably plenty now,
though wages are low. Exchange.
Sugar, coffee, dry apples, mackerel
and "slch," aro also low. Thus things
are about equal after all.
The summer style's of olose cut
hair, according to the Norwich Bulle
tin, nre the "Modoc," "Pine Apple,"
nnd "Baby Mine." The fir3t leaves
one scalp lock, tho second has rather
a rummy appearance, while the third
does not leave one particle of hair to
tell the tale.
The people aro jubilant over big
corn fields or fields of big corn or
both. 'There never was such a pros
pect,' 'the corn couldn't look better,'
are the waj-s they express it. And
when the corn is good, potatoes, and
all sorts of vegetable products are the
same. This will certainly be a year
of abundance In Nebraska.
Some pretend to sny that tho ex
clusion of saloons from our city has
hurt business. Of course this is
not so, and it is a little too early to
bring up that argument, as we etill
have ona public place where men aud
boys may get drunk, and do get
drunk. So, If Baloons and drunken
ness make business, then business Is
yet good, very good In our city.
Just as we were ready to go to
press with our paper last week, Ex
Gov. Furnas received word from Gov.
Nance, in reply to an Invitation, that
he would be in Brownville to Bpend

should require his attention at the

thought he would seo how long !&
would take the crowd to get out with,
the usual slow movements of th la
dles and gentlemen of aanudlence not
In any hurry. So taking out his
watch as the erowdarose to their feet,
Mr. McNaughton timed it. We- were
astonished when he informed us that
it was no more than four minutca
when tho last one passed through tho
outer door. We had an Idea, from the
way the ladles generally stand and
talk, blocking np th aisles, that It
takes about half an hour for the av
erage audience to move out. Tho
Idea of interest In thl matter hi that
it ranlly takes an audience but a few
minutes to clear a hall, and that In
case of 0 fire alarm. If people woaW be
cool and move out deliberately, the
last soul could be on the street in less
than two minutes.
