Godfrey ic Getz have opened a Meat Market iu the rooms lately occupied by Petersen & Rob inson; they are both experienced hands in the business, and will doubtless receive a liberal share of patronage. In a house in this city, occupied by two families, there were born two children on last Saturday uight both boys, one at 6 P. M., the other at 2 o'clock the next morning. Henry Ragatz and G. "W. EllBtoa are the happy fathers. One of those heavy lambs talked of in the Jourkal was on exhibition at Petersen & Robinson's meat mar ket last Saturday.

He tells us that a cer sherifT not many miles away has sent him word that be believes ho has a clew to the tramp who stole a Watch, pistol, &c, from his dwelling-house some time since, of which mention was made in the Journal. On Monday of last week Jacob Emit delivered 34 head of steers that he had sold some time since to T. Fish of Iowa. They averaged 1430 lbs. iu weight, and $56 a head in price. Such figures will doubt less encourage those who are think ing of investing in stock to hurry up. On a U P. passenger traiu last Sunday a vote was taken for presi dent, with the following result: Grant 31; Blaine 32; Tilden 7; Hayes u;Washburne 4. The count was made by Grant men, three of them counting themselves for Blaine, to give the latter as good a send-off as possible with the crowd. The new meat market of Peter sen & Robinson on Olive street has been fitted up iu excellent style, painted, papered, etc., aud looks as neat aud cleau as a new silver dol lar, aud in this way it will be kept by these enterprising men, who pride themselves on having the neat est meat market in the State. At the receut masquerade ball Gustave Hellborn, tho fashionable tailor, represented the character of a lady of fashion so perfectly in dress aud action that Ins most intimate friends did not know him. He is equally as good iu gotting up suits for gentlemen's wear, making them of excellent cloth, neat fit and strong scams. Don't fail to givo him a call before you order your spring suit. D.' B. Slaughter of Fullerton called on us while in town last week. He was rejoicing over the birth of the first child born in Fullerton, and declared him a Grant "boomer," weighing 11 pounds. "Gad" says that Fullerton now contains thirty-five houses, and thirteen are under contract. The first of last June there was not .a house there, and "Gad" declares that its record is ahead of any other town known to the history of the state. The Democracy of Platte county are called to meet at the usual vot ing places Saturday, March 27th, to elect delegates to the county con vention to meet at the Court House Tuesday, March 30th, to elect dele gates to tho state convention, to be held in Columbus, March 31st, for the purpose of selecting delegates to the national convention at Cincin nati, June 22d, 1880. So runs the call published in the last Era over the signatures of W. N. Henaley and R. H. Henry. Wednesday, Thursday and Fri day of this week are the days set aside for the examination of scholars in the city 6Chool of district No. 1. The corps of teachers, Prof. Cramer, Miss Freddie Speice, and Mrs. Bal lou, have giveu excellent satisfac tion. The school work of this win ter has been sadly interfered with by sickness., a great number of the pupils having been afflicted, at one time or another during the season, with dinhtherift. scarlet tovrr mea sles or chicken-pox. A GItiArVTIC Wl'URPKISi;. Extensive Stock Yards and a. Harare Pucklne House to be Erected this Season. The enterprise has taken such shape as to justify the Journal iu mentioning 6ome of tho particulars. The organization has not yet been completed, but doubtless will be before many days. Articles of in corporation are being prepared, and the enterprise is assuming business form. Tho capital stock is to be $100,000, a large Bharo of which is already assured. The incorporators are to be R. H. Henry, J. P. Becker, David Anderson, Leauder Gerrard, Abner Turner aud J. C. Morrissey, and these names are an assurance of the successful issue of the undertak ing. Columbus, for several years now, has maintained a good name in Central Nebraska as a market for all kinds of stock, and this enterprise will give her facilities for carrying and disposing of the stock product to such advantage that stock grow ers will reccivo better prices than now, and tho dealers a better profit. Columbus may shake hands with herself over the prospect of having in this a splendid nucleus for future operations ; an enterprise which will give a still greater impetus to the manufacturing interests which are to constitute the grand future of Co lumbus. Vincent Kummer. Dikd. On Sunday afternoon, March 21st, at li o'clock, Vincent Kummer, aged Tiil years. The deceased was born in Canton Berne, Switzerland, iu 1821, and in 1850 or '51 came to America, where he has since resided, most of the time in this vicinity. Twenty years ago he was elected to the office of county treasurer aud held the same to the installment of bis successor and friend John W. Early. Mr. Kum mer, in his ofllce, was very obliging, aud, at the same time, prompt and thorough in the transaction of busi ness. There was nothing mean or little about him, but open-handed, large-hearted, generous, magnani mous, kind and tender-hearted as a woman to his friends, (aud he had no personal enemies that we know of ) he wou the esteem of everybody, regardless of political differences. The deceased leaves behind him his wife, Rosina, whom he married in 1870, who is, we believe, the only relativo he had in this country. His death was not unexpected. For a number of years he had been sorely afflicted with rheumatism, suffering a thousand deaths in the writhing tortures of that disease, which was probably the cause of his appearing to be an old man while yet in middle age. He managed to weather through a number such attacks, appearing again at the Court House with a cheerfnl word for everyone. But he appeared at his old place for the last time on election day, and now his spirit has passed to the better world, taking its exit ns gently, apparently, as a child going to sleop. "He was," says Mr. Jacob Ernst who was present, "con scious to the last, and passed away without suffering. His la6t words on earth were, 'I'm going to Bleep, now,' aud he laid his head back," quietly breathiug until "the silver chord" was very gently loosed, and his spirit quitted its house of clay. It was Mr. Kummer's request that his body be carried to tho grave by the old settles and that the ex ercises be conducted by H. J. Hud son, iu English, and Arnold Jaoggi, in German. At the time we are writing Tuesday noon, preparations are being made for the funeral, which is to take place from the Opera House at 2 o'clock, and will be participated in by the Maennerchor Society, the Kummer Guards, aud a large concourse of citizens. . Editor Jour al : Will you allow me space to correct a correction in your last issue regarding that Hurley-Hammer case which was tried before me a short time since. Mr. Hammer, in attempting to set the matter right, made it worse than it was before, and casts a slur on me by saying "the verdict was obtained 1 t M . k uy paruaiuy, a statement wuicu is utterly false. He further says "after a long talk the case was comprom ised by Mrs. Hurley paying half the fiue and costs, which statement is also false. The truth is the case was compromised by Mrs. Hurley pay ing f 5 and Mrs. Hammer $8.70, that being the amount of fine and costs. Respectfully yours, Albert Rose, J. P. A lady with a gentleman escort were coming down the sidewalk on Nebraska Avenue one day last week and be being a little in advance stepped on to the end of a loose board on the walk which "tilted" up tripping her and8endiug her head long into tho gutter, and had her nose been of the same material as a ploughshare the City Council would have been saved tho expense of about a rod of "ditching" on that Avenue. Nothing was injured ex cept the lady's "feelings." Had she broken a limb in the fall the chances are that the Council would have had a $20,000 law suit on hand. We are in receipt of the first numbers of a new paper for juve niles, called "Golden Days." Jt is especially designed, by its attractive form, to win the youth of our land away from the corrupting influences of such papers as the "Police Ga zette." If it can succeed in banish ing such foul literature from the face of the earth, "Golden Days" will be worth its weight in diamonds. It could do no better service, and we bid the enterprise God-speed. Weighty thumbs and the Oilier Side of the lesthm. Editor Journal: Your corrc spoudcuts, A. Hcinrich aud "Breed er," iu the last Journal have both cdiiicd and provoked discussion, aud by this means, and iuterchauge of views of different men and breeders, facts are recorded as the result of ollen dear-bought experience, and careful observation. Mr. Heiurich has come "to the front" in a very satisfactory way, and conclusively sustains Messrs. Draper aud Thrush, both small breeders of sheep iu Colfax county, that there is money in sheep when intelligently haudled, in flocks of 300 to 500, a little better than larger ones, containing thou sands. The climate of Nebraska is ad mirably adapted to Mr. J.N. Myers's theory "of lambs coming in winter. The prudent farmer who plans and forecasts his work will have time to give attention to ewes that are lamb ing and at little expense can furnish warm quarters for sheep in this country of abundant grass and tough sod. Mr. Heiurich's success with winter lambs is in straugecont rast with "Breeder's" doleful Homily on "the most troublesome of all do mestic animals." It is admitted "they are subject to a good many disorders and diseases" in soino countries, so much so that some val uable books have been published oil "Sheep aud their diseases," but atler a thorough examination aud enquiry of sheep breeders in Nebraska, I have fouud, with but very few ex ceptions, none of " these peculiar sheep diseases" that haunt the fears of "Breeder," the exceptions being the scab, that some dishonest dealer has sold to the inexperienced. I have in my mind more than one buyer that innocently turned his scabby purcha.-e among the healthy, and too late discovered the annoy ance complained of by "Breeder," rubbing down fences aud buildings. Now, Mr. Editor, I think "Breeder" was not feeling well when he grudged those sheep the pleasant pastime of rubbing themselves. Just as though cattle and "hogs, the tar nal pesky things," did not rub down fences and buildings, to say nothing of their rooting, and rambling all over creation. Ah! "Breeder,"' I wish you had been with Mr. A. Heiurich, aud helped him weigh those weighty lambs ;" it would have doue you good to see his pleasant smile, as he marked the increased weight of those lamb?, indicated by tho scale beam on January 17th, February 7h and March 12th. I hope Mr. Heiurich aud "Breeder" will continue to interest your read ers and contributors, including Dot. Service In the German Catho lic Church lurlng: Holy Week.
