Several other houses were badly in jured. Fences, grain, stock, trees, etc, were destroyed. Nebraska is a stock-raising coun try. The business has always been a good one. The reason for it has been evident, but very few have made calculation of the increase of stock. We suggest that some Ne braska mathematician solve the problem on the following basis. What will be the increase, in ten years from one cow, supposing that the progeny begin to bear at three years of age, and that all steer calves aro exchanged for heifers before that age. Those who solve the problem will be surprised at the great num ber. It is believed the congress at its present session will give Indian affairs a general investigation and overhauling. The causes of recent savage hostilities should receive very strict and particular investigation. It always appeared to us that the United States failed in the manage ment of Indian Reservations be cause the government did not retain in its own hands the legal power to punish crime within such limits. Ben. II. Hayden, known to many citizens of Nebraska, was shot and killed at Lcadvillc last week. He quarreled with a companion in a saloon, concerning a woman, aud Hayden drew his revolver but the other drew his also, and firing first, instantly killed Hayden. He was a slave to his appetite, and succumbed to the power of alcohol. He leaves a wife and three children in Saline county. W. A. Harp and Geo. M. llensou, who were recently convicted and sentenced to eight years imprison ment iu the penitentiary by Judge Hallett of the United States court of Colorado for attempting to rob tho mail near Lcadvillc, were last week brought to the Nebraska peniten tiary by Marshal S. W. Cantril, ot Denver, to serve out their time. A special to the Pioneer-Press says the hardest storm in the history of the Northern Pacific railroad pre vailed last week all along the line, from Bismark to Duluth, over an area of four hundred miles square. Snow fell to the depth of a foot on the level, aud drifts four feet. .All trains delayed and business in the towns stopped. The following confirmations have been made: II. K. Sickle, pension agent, Philadelphia; W. II. Hayes, United Slates district judge for Ken tucky ; C. P. James, associate justice of the supreme court. District of Columbia; C.

The ice pond was formed by two dams a quarter of a mile apart. Heavy rains swell ed the waters, causing the lower dam to burst, and the torrent of water swept down on McCray's cot tage near the pond. Chief Oukay came to the Los Pinos agency on the 10th inst., with one of the Indian prisoners called for by the Commission and turned him over to Gen. Hatch, and stating that the others would be surrender ed as soon as captured. The work of the Commission will probably end this week. E8 txnily !'of Sii2th;rist. 1). W. Zicgler of Monroe fends us the following paragraph from the llmiiinirilon Jtmruul, with a request to publish it for the benefit of our readers. We gladly do so, knowing that very often the most effective remedies are the simplest. A year ago and again six mouths ago we published two instauccs of very severe burns having been success fully treated by the application of common baking soda, aud are glad to know that many have profited by the information, and hope like good results may follow from this remedy for diphtheria, which seems to have been so effective in the families mentioned : 'There is a family here by the name of Light, a miller, who moved here from Rochester this season. Mrs. Light said to some of the neighbors previous to moving here she had an attack of diphtheria, aud cured herself by the use of kerosene oil as a gargle, also swallowed some ; but the remedy was so simple that our citizens did not think of it uutil live of Mr. Jelly's children were ta ken down with diphtheria. Their throats became swollen and canker ed terribly. Mrs. Jelly sent for her neighbor, and Mrs. Milliette pro uouueed it diphtheria in a very dangerous form. Mrs. Jelly said she would use Mrs. Light's remedy kerosene oil which she gave her five children as a gargle, and also had them swallow some. The chil dren recovered rapidly, and in a few days were out on the street. An other neighbor by the name of Lubia, railroad trackmastcr, had three of his children taken with diphtheria, aud cured them with kerosene oil. Win. Emery had four children taken down, and gave them kerosene oil ami they recovered. Robert Gillette was taken with the disease, and had three children taken with it, very bad, and were cured with kerosene. John Rey nolds, of Ingraham, had a daughter and niece cured by kerosene oil when given up for death by the doctor. What is more astonishing is that not a single case where kerosene oil wax used proved fatal. The rem edy is simple and certainly cheap, and always at hand in all families throughout the land. A practical test should be made under direc tion of physicians, and if it has merit the infoTmation cannot be too widely spread.'' For tin- .lornxAi.. 3B'ril of" llio Humor. Editor Jopunai. : A number of our citizens are becoming alarmed over recent telegrams appearing in flic daily papers to the ell'cct that Jay Gould has swallowed thcA.& N. railroad, body aud soul. The absurdity of the statement is plainly seen if the question is examined into. That Gould is eager to mo nopolize the entire railroad system of the west, there is no doubt, but he luckily cannot effect it. The Boston Company, owners of the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe, we sec by late numbers of the Chicago and Kansas City dailies, has combined its forces with the Vandcrbilt roads for the purpose of extending their road to the Pacific coast, owning and con trolling a thoroughfare across the continent in direct opposition to the Gould combination. The A. & N. proper is a branch of that immense line, as much so as the Omaha & Republican Valley R. R. is a part of the U. P., and does it look plausible that Gould can buy it? The A. & N. stock is not now, nor has it ever been on the market. It is quoted at no price. It is not for sale. It is not cornered, neither can Gould cor ner it. More likely the owners of that road wilf corner him. It is a stronger corporation than Gould's. Gould controls a patch of roads in the middle of the continent with no sea-board outlet, aud is said to be a schemer grasping in the dark, and when the through continental com peting routes are completed, the Northern Pacific and Atchison, To pcka and Santa Fc(thc latter is now under rapid headway) I apprehend that Gould will not feel so proud, neither will he own so much railroad stock. There will be a reaction, aud Gould will be "left." Such is my reasoning on the merits of this ru mor, and I feci confident that Gould docs not control enough capital to buy so important a feeder to a through line from the Atlantic to the Pacific. S. S. What was it? Giiant PiiAiniE, Dec. 12, 79. Mi:. Kihtou: Why don't the JorcNAL be a little more plain, and not use so many phrases? For in stance, what are we to understand by Frank Cain's standing Julius on his car? Does the Jouknal think that we arc going to get out this cold weather and drive all the way into Columbus to ask Frank Cain what it was that he did to Julius? We know that he did not stand him on his car, for that would be an utter impossibility. Now what did he do with him ? Now and Then. Of course the Jopknal endeavors to give all the local news, every bit and crumb, boiled down, but it can not dwell long on particulars. Like the advertisers, for further particu lars, you must call on or address the parties interested. The constitutional amendment proposed iu the House relative to polygamy contains the following provisions: Polygamy shall not ex ist within the limits of the United States or any place Eubjcct to their jurisdiction. Congress shall have the power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation. Miss. Maky A. Olivei: is still after Simon Cameron for his breach of promise of marriage with her. Si mon may well exclaim in the lan guage of another "Beware of the yidders." The President has nominated Jas. B. Seyer, of Virginia, chief justice of Wyoming territory.
