Guy Bamum tells us of a

the same maternal care sho bestows
on the other.

barn, was importuned for his bill

ed iu confinement yesterday.
Monday afternoon a team be
longing to U. D. Ball of Polk county,
and attached to a load of lumber,
becoming frightened, spun around

bringing up in front of the Grand
Pacific, where the, wagon was upset,
and the tongue broke; the team
crossed the street, where one of them
fell down, having a sliver about six
inches long, one inch wide and half
an inch thick thrust clear through-fT
his foot.
The Sisters' Hospital is to be a
grander institution for Columbus
than our citizens generally are awhre
of. Its benefits will, of course, not
be fully appreciated until after it
shall have been put into 4workin"g
order, and the recipients o its good
works shall have made known its
good deeds. "Charity is kind." Wc
speak a good word for the institu
tion in view of the fact that our
citizens may soon have the privilege
of contributing towards its support.
rThe Columbus Maennerchor had
a splendid time during their trip to,
and their stay in Omaha, at the bap
tism of the Flag. The excursion
was over the L. fc N. W. to Lincoln
aud the B. & M. to Omaha, at $1
apiece for the round trip. Au offi
cial was sent from headquarters, to
see to their safe couduct, and the
trip was made just as agreeablo as
possible. The members of the Club
speak in tho highest terms of the
treatment received from railroad
officials, tho Omaha Maennerchor
and the citizens of Omaha. Mayor
Chaso made them a speech at the
depot, complimenting them as tho
finest singers present at the festival.
On Thursday last, Ralph, young
est son of M. K. Turner, came very
nearly losing his life. The little
fellow, who is just beginning to ap
preciate the freedom of crawling out
of doors, had slipped out of mater
nal sight and plunged headlong iuto
a tub of water sotting near tho door.
He had uttered no cry and gave no
sign of distress, but his mother,
missing him, sent a little sister to
see whore he was, when she found
him head downward In the water.
Ho was past consciousness, his body
black, eyes open and with a dead
look, aud the whole frame limp.
Tim nnnrnFiiil tnoll.mln nC .,nn.,nn!
tion were immediately resorted to,
and the little fellow shortly camel
back to life and health.
There are all classes of frauds
extant, but the most of them assume
the agency role. The latest heard of
in Nebraska are persons represent
ing themselves as agents of the Hail
Insurance Co. of X. Y. Mr. F. W.
Liedtke, State Auditor, informs us
that there is no such company in
existence, and further that there is,
at present, no hail insurance com
pany authorized to do business in
Nebraska. As a safeguard against
frauds of all kinds, the Journal
would repeat, have nothing to do
with an agent or a pretended agent
for insurance, for machinery, for
wire fence, for lightning rods, for
anything under the canopy, unless
you know the agent, and know him
to be all right. This rule, strictly
adhered to, will 6avc you a deal of
trouble, and perhaps no little money.
We had several special requests
last week to write some more brief
paragraphs setting forth tho beauties
of Nebraska weather. We have a
good deal of the disposition of the
Friends, who speak as the spirit
moves them. We can not always be
talking of the weather, and neither
can we always approve of it, either
in Nebraska or any where else we
ever lived; but this much we will
say, that in no problem of life where
there are uncertain quantities to deal
with, can you safely base your esti
mates on t he extremes. The farmer,
the merchant, the nrtisan, must, as a
rule, make his calculations on a
general average, and our formula
for Nebraska weather (especially
applicable after a disagreeable spell)
is, "Nebraska has more fine days in
the year than any other place we
know of' and this is a truth ac
knowledged on all hands.
THE GREAT VAN AMBURGH.
A Monster Institution, The Great
Show- is Coming.
Van Aiuburgh & Co's Great Goldcu
Menagerie, Roman Circus and Col
osseum, the largest combined meu
agerie aud circus now traveling, will
visit Columbus on Thursday, May
13th. We venture the assertion that
as a whole, thi monster exhibition
is by far the most attractive in all
of its features of any like institution
that has ever visited this section of
the State, and that it will meet with
the most generous patronage from
our citizens and our country readers
is placed bayond a donbt. The
Golden Menagerie has the most ex
tensive collection of wild- animals,
birds and reptiles that has ever been
brought together under one canvass
In this or any other country, in the
list of which will be found the
great Behemoth of Holy Writ, the
only living Nondescript ever im
ported into this country, the largest
elephant in America, aud twenty
niue cages of other rare wild ani
mals. Tho circus performances will
bo of a startling and amusing char
acter. A troop of nearly ono hun
dred equestrians, equestriennes,
gymnasts, acrobats, athletes, leapers,
rc, all of whom have boen selected
for their peculiar specialty acts.
The clowna three of them have
been chosen from the best and wit
tiest in the profession, and, in short,
everything in this gigantic show is
of the most elaborate and glittering
description. We expect to see the
mammoth tents of tho Van Amburgh
Show crowded at each performance
next Thursday. Who is there that
dislikes to seo a good horse? No
ono. Who then will fail to see not
only scores of the finest bred horses
in the country dash into tho magic
ring of the cirens, each one of theso
carrying au equestrian, who from
infancy has made the art of riding a
horse his study ? Who can listen to
the quaint savings of Mr.Morryman,
hhe circU3 c'0wn, without starting a
... , t; l -.i. i"
button from his vest with involun
tary laughter! What boy will hes
itate to ride the mule when the
ring-master offers a five dollar gold
piece to the lad who succeeds with
out getting his neck dislocated ? Oh,
it i9 fun to ride the mule. The man
who can throw a somersault over
twenty horses is with the show, and
he will do it or break his engage
ment with the management, for he
is hired for that one feat. The lion
tamer will euter the den of the for
est king, and not only play "hide
and go seek" with half a dozen of
them, but will feed them with raw
meat in tho presence of the whole
audience. No mistake about it, a
menagerie and circus is just what
is most dosircd at this time by our
citizens, and they will not fail to
crowd the spacious tents of the
great .Vau Amburgh at each per
formance. Remember tho day.
Road tho advertisement in this
week's paper, and fail not to visit
tho Great Show.
-
The Convention.
On next Wednesday and perhaps
Thursday will be held in this city
the largest political gathering over
called together In Nebraska. It has
been heralded hero and thoro, over
the State, by those who don't know
Columbus, that her hotel accommo
dations will not be ample enough
for the crowd of people that are to
bo here ; dolegates have been serio
comically advised to bring their
board and bed with them. Tho
Lincoln papers especially have spok
en disparagingly of Columbus as a
convention town, and it becomes us
to make a littlo effort, and sec to it
that none who attend are without
good meals and good beds, which is
more than many delegates ever got
at Lincoln, by even paying a large
sum. The convention is composed
of 373 members, and there is good
reason to believe that they will all
be here' beaid3 at least fl3 many
more who take a lively interest In
shaping the action of the State on
the presidential question.
Let the guests of Columbus bo so
treated this time that they will wish
to como again.
..
Map or Plutte Co.
Messrs. Speice & North, real es
tate agents of this city, have done
an excellent thing in preparing for
sale a splendid map of the county
showing the location of all the
towns, farms, &c. It may be set
down as absolutely correct, in all
important particulars. W. L.
Wright of Omaha is the draughts
man, and the lithographers, August
Gass & Co. of St. Louis. The work
ou tho map is dono in the
best of style, and one of these, hand
somely mounted, should adorn the
walls of every farm-house and office
in the county. We find it very val
uable for reference, and have had
ours but a few days. Wo hope that
while thee gentlemen will feel as
sured that they have done a public
good, they will have purchasers
enough for their very handsome
map to justify them in still further
ventures in this Hue. Sold by
Speice & North, at their office on
11th st.
..
They nre Undoubtedly tlie Fin
est. The Oakes Bros. Concert Co.,who
appear here on Monday eve., May
17th, is the finest and most finished
amusement and musical organization
traveling; their entertainment is
novel and eutirely origiual with
themselves; thoy are now in their
third year of continual success with
out losing any time, which is a
sufficient guarantee of their ability.
You should net fail to give them
your support as they are beyond a
doubt worthy of a crowded bouse.
In rvicmorluiu.
At a mcetiug of the Columbus

Whereas, In view of the loss we

heavier loss sustained by those who

for one who was in every way
worthy of our respect and regard.

P. Walter Connaughton, M. D. Sir:
Gratitude prompts me to write you a
few lines, informing you of my wife's
great improvement under your treat
ment. She feels young once more, and
can do a good day's work. She Is better
than she has been for 20 years. I have
paid out a good deal of money to quack
doctors, and nostrums of the'dy, to no
benefit; and she has never received any
benefit until she commenced your treat
ment, and if any person doubts It let
them call at my residence or write, and
I will prove my assertion. I saw one
of my neighbors last night; she is In the
first stages of consumption. I am goin
to take my wife and see them, and try
to prevail on them to go and see you.
Yours with much respect,
