Very lengthy communications
received its late as Monday must
lay over till the next week, and we
must again caution correspondents
against writing advertisements in
their communications. Business is
business.
A man in the northern part of
the county was so excited in detail
ing the doings of the lightning ou
his premises that he got somewhat
mixed, declaring that tho lightning
killed his stove and knocked his
dog down.
The water works at the depot
certainly add greatly to tbc comfort
of " the boys," and to the safety of
the buildings iu case of lire. Pipes
run from the large water tank, and
hose are placed in readiness for
emergency.

their former action to fence and de
vote the square to a city park.

G. W. Stevens, living west of
the city, for sonic time back has had
his chickens stolen, to the number of
twenty. Last Saturday night he
captured the thief in a steel trap,
which turned out to be a savage
looking wild cat. He will steal no
more.
Superintendent S. L. Barrett
will hold the annual Normal Insti
tute in this city the last of July or'
first of August, lasting four weeks.
This institute will be of decided ad
vantage to the teachers of the county
and they should make, if necessary,
some sacrifices to attend.
Mike Ebel says that Jobn Jones
of Butler lost tuo steers lately by
the same, disease that carried off so
mail cittle la-t fall. Mike says
they are subject to it when they,
begin to fatten, after a change of
feed, and that the lower bowels
should be kept well open.
The Congregational church at
Silver Creek, a new building, 3Sx50
ft. aud 80 ft. high, elevated on SxS
posts, 2'o ft. above the ground, with
out under protection, was blown
down aud mashed to pieces Wednes
day night Inst. On the same night
Dr. Wierd's house opposite the town
was struck by lightning.
Mr. Galey tells us that the entire
contract for the construction of the
new road between Lincoln and Co
lumbus has been let, and sublet be
tween Lincoln and Milford. That
2,000 men will be wauled on the
road between Aug. 1st and Dec. 1st,
and that the Co. will build anyhow,
iu spite of all injunctions.
The American Agriculturist for
July is at hand. Always good, this
number is no exception. Literature,
to aid the farmer in his actual work,
is about as indispensable as a wind
mill on the average prairie farm,
and every one who reads should
have this best of monthlecs. Pub
lished by tho Orange Jndd Co., 512
Broadway, N. Y.. $1.50 a year, in
either English or German.
Notwithstanding the very gen
tle hint we quoted last week from
the Central City Courier, the young
man who docs up the locals for the
JZra continues to pilfer his items
from the Jouknal. While we must
acknowledge admiration for his
sound discriminating judgment
which knows what is good, we must
be allowed to say that his virtues
arc not of the perpendicular order.
The crops south of tbe Loup
river and in tbe valley for six or
eight miles west are simply splen
did. Tbc oats, corn and wheat on
the farms of Geo. Birney aud Charlie
Morse and other farms northwest
in tbe valley the owners of which wo
do not know, cannot be excelled iu
any country, and, should nothing
happen to damage them before sav
ing time, will produce abundantly,
perhaps largely excelling any past
year.
Persons desirous of getting rid
of waste or refuse water about their
buildings in this level country,
should examine the sink at the
monastery building prepared for that
purpose, sunk to the depth of 10 feet
which reached the coarse sand, and
all the refuse water about the build
ing passes into this sink which runs
away immediately and every thing
around the building is kept clean
and sweet. Nothing offensive about
the sink.
The Platte Valley Democrat,
published by Messrs, Wentwortb &
Sou, made its appearance last Fri
day. It is a seven-column paper,
neatly printed. The proprietors
think Columbus is a good point to
establish a paper to circulate
throughout the State. A good
Democratic State paper is sorely
needed. In a business point of view
we wish the new enterprise success,
but confusion and defeat to its po
litical utterances.
Choice residence lots for sale.
See advertisement.
Services at tbe Episcopal church
next Sabbath at 11 o'clock.
The "C. of tbc C. F.' will meet
Thursday evening for a game.
Died. A little daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Postle, at G p. m. yesterday.
The editor of the Omaha Jiee
must not lay quite so much stress
upon tbe ebullitions of his corres
pondent, C. E. M., at least so far as
Columbus is concerned. For in
stance, there is no " mighty howl"
against tbe TJ. P., aud a " dangerous
murmur of indignation," aud no
thirst of revenge " permeates tbe
highest and the lowest." The truth
is simply, and this is recognized by
all thinking men here, the U. P. Co.
has done nothing more than might
have been expected of her, having
ouc-fiflh the A. & N. bonds to pay.
The citizens of Watlsville and
vicinity, appropriately celebrated
tbe -4th. The exercises were opened
with prayer by Elder Cook, followed
by the reading of the declaration of
Independence by Ed. Moncricf.
Brief and excellent orations were
delivered by Elder Cook and Cbas.
Magoou. After partaking of dinner
tbe young folks enjoyed themselves
by engaging in the merry dance
under the shady bower, and late in
the evening adjourned to the school-
house, where tho dance was contin
ued after night. All enjoyed the
occasion hugely.
On the Fourth, a. lad by tho
name of Josopb Weinlich, who was
crossing lltb street northward at
Henry's crossing.was knocked down
by a horse driven uy Gus. and Louis
Scbuedcr. As we are informed, the
horse was at the time going nt a
brisk trot, his knee striking the
boy's back and the two wheels on
one side of the buggy both passing
over the boy's bowels. It might
have been a most serious matter for
all concerned as it was at first sup
posed that the lad could not recover.
The occurrence, as we look at it, is
a practical lesson to the drivers, to
the boy, and likewise to the City
Marshal.
At Mr. Barker's sheep ranch
north of the city, tbo storm of rain
and wind which occurred about 2
o'clock Thursday morning last scat
tered things about pretty lively. The
roof of tbc sheep corral was blown
off. and scattered in every direction,
and some of the boards split in
pieces, and about 125 feet of the'eor
ral fence blown down. The build
ing at the ranch is only one story,
14x22, which, by the force of the
storm, was moved about fourteen
feet from the foundation, wrenching
all the doors from the stove, turning
the table and dishes into one corner
of the building, and greatly alarm
ing the persons sleeping therein.
Three persons were at the corral and
house, none of whom were injured.
The only thing killed on the premi
ses was one chicken.
x The U. P. surveyors were at
Jackson on the 4th. We understand
that their last survey has been made
from Jackson to tho O. & K. V. It. B.
which strikes that road at a point
between Bising and Osceola, mid
from which place the U. P. intends
continuing the road to Lincoln.
Stranger things than such a project
are liable to occur, as well as the
erection of a round-house at Jack
son. The land is a little rough north
and west of Jackson, but there is
good territory enough in that vicin
ity upon which to build up a large
city, large enough to support the
capital of any state in the Union.
The citizens of Jackson and vicinity
arc excited upon all these subjects,
and we cannot blame them for look
ing after and taking care of what
they regard as their own interests.
Wednesday night of last week
was a good time to set for a moon
light pic-nic, so far as tbe light of
that orb was concerned, but the dark
clouds that rolled up from a south
ern sky on the evening iu question
bad a tendency to change the "splen
did" time that bad been anticipated
by a most jolly crew, to something
that didn't prove quite so nice; at
least that's what "Jim Devero"
thinks, who was in attendance, and
who, by the way, is gaining for him
self considerable notoriety as a poet
ical genius. "Jim," after giving a
detailed and laughable account of
tbe eveuing's doings, " wound up"
with,
"There was "Carl," "Thcod.," "Gus,"
in all, some twenty-four,
"Who for St3-nj:er'6 grove and a good
time were set;
When nearly there, oh, bow tho rain
did pour!
Which caused us all to become wring
ing wet."
From David Anderson we learn
that crop prospects are much better
in Nebraska, than cither Iowa or
Illinois, especially is the corn far
advauccd ahead of those states ; while
the oats and wheat are promising
throughout Illinois, the corn is very
backward The Bock Island and
C. B. & Q. railroads will have a
double track laid between the Mis
souri river and Chicago within
twelve months A mammoth
packing house i3 soon to be erected
in Couucil Bluffs, with Omaha and
Chicago capital Mr. A. thinks
the business men and citizeus of
Chicago are unnecessarily excited
over the communistic movemeuts,
and that the authorities are fully
prepared for an outbreak at anv
time, should one occur. . . There arc
now hundreds of tramps camped
along the Rock Island road, waiting
for harvest to begin. The tramp
nuisance in Iowa is certainly a
monster elephant for the people to
handle.

day deepened the Cedar S ft. in a few
bonis.
Mr. aud Mrs. David Anderson re
turned from the cast Saturday last.
Mrs. A. informs us that the trip was
a very pleasant one to her. David
is enthusiastic in regard to the crops
of Nebraska as compared with Iowa
and Illinois. Placing his right hand
about four inches aboye tho ground,
" there," said he ' is Illinois " ; up to
his chin, " and there is Nebraska."
lie says the difference is very mark
ed as soon as the Missouri river is
reached. The apple crop iu Iowa
will bo a partial failure.
From Jackson north to the Loup
valley is found what is known as
the Little. Sand Hills. It is a sin
gular formation, but most assuredly
never formed iu the manner that
citizens generally suppose, by the
action of the wind storms blowing
of the sand into hills, valleys aud
ravines; if thus formed, how was it
possible that the same wind could
blow clay soil into the same hills aud
vales? All the valleys and hills arc
now iu July covered with grass, and
wouut sustain tnousauus upou
thousands of cattle or sheep for sum
mer grazing. Thoso lands belong
almost entirely to government and
tho U. P. It. R. Co., and persons
seeking homes in the west have
passed them by and they remain un
occupied. We learn from a citizen
similar formed lands extend from
the Loup valley in this county north
of the U. P. railroad as far west as
Kearney, and arc unoccupied except
in exceptional cases where the val
lies are rich and wide enough to
farm. We predict thut the time
will come when these lands will be
occupied in the summer by large
herds of cattle aud sheop, and the
thought may originate in a wild im
magination but we firmly believe
that along the slopes of this clay
laud aud even to the tops of the
highest hills will grow the richest
fruits, such as grapes, apples, peach
es, pears, plums, cherries, and choice
berries.

Jtest Application forIturiis.
Thomas O'Neal's child, aged IS
months was badly scalded with hot
tea last Thursday night. It reached
up to the table and tipped a cupful
of boiling tea, the contents of the
cup going over its throat and chest
and a large portion down its throat,
tho steam getting into the wind
pipe. The case was a peculiar one
and the child suffered terribly. The
fond parents gave up their little one
as beyond help, but brought the
child to the city (22 miles) to have
the suffering allaved. Drs. Mitchell
& Martyn of the Institute took
charge of the little fellow, and when
we saw him Saturday he seemed to
be enjoying himself very nicely.
Dr. Martyn tells us that it is a fact,
which should be universally known,
that common baking soda, (bicar
bonate of soda) such as every good
woman has in the house, is the best
application known forburns. Spread
it thick ou the scalded flesh, and
dampen a cloth to put over it, being
careful to have it 60 well saturated
that it will permeate (he soda. Many
a life might be 6aved in this way.
The application should be made at
once, and for after treatment call in
a physician. About a year ago the
Jouknal mentioned an instanco of
the wonderful properties of soda to
preserve the flesh from the effects of
fire, and we desire to so strongly
impress tho fact that no one who
reads this will ever forget it.
The Staging1 Wind.
Last Thursday night J. A. Wood,
living 8J-' miles west of Columbus,
was wakened up with the crash of a
window, and found his house gone
away from over his head, leaving
nothing but the floor. The house
was of log, one and a half stories,
and was scattered so far and wide
that 25 Philadelphia lawyers could
not put it together again. A little
boy, tip-stairs, was carried fifteen
rods, wrapped up in a quilt, and laid
down as gently as a mother would
lay her babe to rest. The cupboard
was knocked down, but not a dish
broken. A clock was carried quite
a distance, but only the looking
glass in it broken. No one of the
four occupants of the house was
hurt. The same wind unroofed an
unoccupied building in the same
neighborhood, belonging to George
Savidgc.
