The close of school in Dist. No. 1
last Friday was the occasion of some
very pleasant surprises, in which
the pupils reversed the usual order
attending such exercises. On Thurs
day evening, at the close of the
day's session, it was evident that
there was "a, screw loose" some
where, but the most careful inquiries
failed to reveal the secret. Howev
er, the solution was made very tan
gible the next day at Ihe afternoon
recess. The Principal being absent
from the room a few minutes, found
upon his return, his desk loaded
down with different articles, pre
sented by the pupils as testimonials
of their esteem: a fine silver fruit
knife was lying menacingly open
on top a dish of splendid fruit; there
was also a crystal paper-weight en
closing a thermometer; book-marks
and paper-holders wrought deftly
and tastefully iu the finest needle
work.
In tho Intermediate Department
the teacher was the recipient of a
silver butter-knife, au expression of
regard from her pupils ; an album
from the High School, and many
other articles from individual pu
pils. The teacher of the Primary De
partment received a large book by
one of the standard authors, from
the pupils of the High School, and
a perfect deluge of tokens from her
own pupils, which cannot be here
enumerated for want of space.
So adroitly had the whole affair
been managed that the teachers were
taken entirely by surprise. General
permission was given, and all the
rooms visited, by teachers and pu
pils, to view the long array of pres
ents. After recess all the schools
were brought together iu tho High
School room, to hear the answers to
the weekly question -box. The
teachers then made remarks, thank
ing the pupils heartily for their
handsome presents; after which the
session was brought to a formal
close by the Principal, and teachers
and pupils went to their homes with
pleasant memories of the past, and
happy auguries for the future.
The teachers in Dist. No. 1, so far
as we have been able to learn, have
given universal satisfaction, and wn
might as well remark here that
there is no class of workers who
deserve better pay and more honors
than the faithful, efficient teacher of
children.
Marshall, Jr., sou of Marshall
Smith, met with a serious accident
on Mondiy last while at play iu the
yard of R. II. Henry. In attempt
ing to climb the fence, and while on
the top board, he lost his hallance
and pitched head foremost to the
ground, breaking his arm between
the elbow and wrist. The little fel
low bore himself bravely under the
surgical treatment and was able to
take his breakfast at the table on
Tucsdav mondav.

W. B. Coffin of this county, a
very gentlemanly and well-mcanittg
man, pretty nearly got into trouble
at Norfolk, just because he felt jubi
lant over the result of the raflrond
election here, and endeavored to
communicate the good feeling to a
Madison county man who was sore
over the defeat of the U. P. project
in Madison county, and who believ
ed that every man from this region

wiped out yet? Wc would suggest
that the next time the "Great Wiper''
swings himself around Columbus
threatening utter annihilation and
"sich" that a committee of christian
gentlemen take him down to the
Loup and "born" him over a few
times. It might set him to think

Eihtoic Jouk.vai. : In this part of
the county some of us do not neg
lect to taise fruit, especially small

strawberries were not so large as
usual, nor so abundant iu yield.
To-day I partook of ripe raspberries
for the first time this season.
We have had green peas for sever
al weeks. 1 neversawcorn look bet

The dedication of tho Crcston
church has been postponed until
four weeks from next Sunday, on
account of tho chairs not having ar
rived. The surveyors of the Omaha,
Niobrara Sc Black Hills railroad
camped at litis place last Sunday.
They were on their way to Colum
bus to await further orders.
Still another chance is given to
the people of this aud Norfork pre
cincts to have a railroad. This time
it is precinct bonds to the amount of
ten jter cent, of the assessed valua
tion, which will be about one-half
that of the whole county, or a
bout twenty-six thousand dollars in
bonds. This is fair, and we hope
that tho people of these precincts
will do their duty this time and
vote for bonds.

The Argus, in a well-considered
article on the immediate prospects
for a railroad, says :
'But the U. P. is not the only road
looking wistfully towards our well
filled granaries, and broad pastures
teeming with stock. The L. Sc N.
has reached Columbus, or nt least
secured a route to that place, and
now the great question of the hour
is, where will they go? The B. &
M. road is on the move, and many
think they too will eventually
stretch out toward us, for the valley
of the Beaver is a natural railroad
bed, and the cost of building a road
here, would he but the merest trifle,
in comparison to that of other routes.
One thing is certain, Boone county
wants a railroad, and will offer
reasonable inducements to the right
road, for she is not yet quite so in
sane, as to adopt the suicidal policy
of her sister county, Madison."

The election in litis county was not
