Miss Emma E. Bauer who has at we learn, been teaching a very successful term of school at Watts ville, which closed on the 16th, returned home Saturday. A big hail storm visited the neighborhood of West Hill, last Saturday extending over three miles of country, cutting the corn crop in Its course literally to pieces. Pror. McGinitie and Mrs. Fifleld have been employed by the School Board of Dist. 13. It is understood that at least one, and perhaps two more teachers will be employed. The Sutton Register of the 15th contains an excellent editorial on the senatorial preference clause of our constitution, which the other side will do well to read and re flect upon.

We learn that some of our mail carriers are liable to get into trou ble, by putting the mail into the bands of non-authorized parties. Mr. and Mrs. Capt. Hammond started yesterday for a sojourn among friends in the east. Wo wish them a pleasaut trip and safe return. Dr. Siggins returned from his visit to the east last Thursday eveu ing. He is ready for business again, and can be consulted at his old office. Miss Louie Bauer closed a term of school in district No. 1 last Friday. She furnished her pupils at the close with a nice social enter tainment. A. W. Crites camo up from Plattsmouth Saturday. We see that Mr. Wentworth is again at work on the Courant, as much of a Bour bon as ever. Mrs. Morris and her sister Miss West of Boulder, Col. have returned from a visit east and arc spending a few days in the city after which they will leave for Boulder. From the large number of reap ers, harvesters and self binders Bold here this season one would natur ally conclude that the crop of small grain is immense, but such is not the case. Miss Anna George returned home last Sunday. Her term of school closed in the McAlpine dis trict on last Friday. We learn that she had a very pleasant and agreea ble school. Sealed proposals for repairing of brick school house in District No. 1, (carpenter work), will be received at the office of J. G. Higgins, direc tor, until Monday 6 p. m., July 20, 1SS0, where specifications can be seen. Peter Plamondon, who some weeks ago leased Dan Ryan's place and had quite a run in the hotel business, skipped out ono day last week, without notice. He jb prob ably in search of a fresher field and greener pasture. A special to the Omaha Herald on the night of the Hancock ratifica tion stated that there were about 3,000 people at the meeting. The truth is there were not more than 300 present, and the most of them were Republicans. For Sale. A dwelling-house and lot in a very desirable part of the city. Will be sold at a sacrifice, as the money is needed. The honBe is new and cost more money than is asked for both house and lot. For further particulars inquire at the Journal office. The new buildiug between the Bank and Era office, which is being erected by J. H. Mitchell and Whit moyer, Gerrard and Post, is fast approaching completion. The brick work is all done, except what goes above the upper joists. It will make a handsome building. The case of the State against Patrick Fahey was heard before Justice Bailey and a jury. Die drick Eickmeyer was the complain ing witness, and the charge assault. Result $10 and costs; sum total $18 and upwards nearly half a hun dred, enough to buy two good cows. The pictures on Barnum's ad vertising car, which stopped here Saturday, were painted by James Walker, and that he received for the four monthB work he put upon it, nearly ten thousand dollars. The scenes and. animals were certainly superbly done, and the pictures were th admiration ef crowds of people. The Burglar Aferad. Ou Sunday night James B. Large and H. W. Hall (who have both had employment in the city for some time), were found by Chief of Police McMahon attempting to effect an entrance to Acklny's saloon on Olive (street. The night watch at the Hammond House had beard suspi cious sounds across the way, and called McMahon's attention to them. Mac. approached the place, found a ladder back of the saloou, reaching down into Eavanaugh's garden. Leaping over the fence, he secured his two men, and started towards the jail with them. Meeting police man Brandt he gave them into his charge and went back to investigate further, and see if any thing had been stolen. After a little while police man Brandt reappeared, and it then occurred to McMahon to inquire whether the "birds" bad been put into the cage or not, and on learning that they were in jail but outside the cage the officers hurried down, to find that Large and Hall needed only a blow or two more to effect their escape. With the pump han dle they had made a hole through the brick wall almost large enough for a man to crawl through. Of course they we.ro then pet within the iron cage, where they are sup posed to be secure. It appears that the same night some parties broke into Jackson's saloon on 11th street, taking there from $1.90. $1.70 of the money as described was found on the persons of the men arrested and the cut thumb of Large, with the blood on the window and money-drawer at Jackson's all were such strong proof of guilt thai the accused were order ed by Police Judge Bowman to give bond for their appearance at the next term of the District Court, failing which, they were remanded to prison. The place where the road crosses Lost creek on the west line of the old Senecal farm, where the bridge Bometime since was-burned, has turned out to be a fearful stick hole. Several teams, wo learn, have re cently stuck fast and caused consid erable damage to teams and harness. Would it not be well enough for the officials having charge of such mat tern to look after this dangerous place in the public highway, and have it repaired before they are called upon to respond to a suit for damages sustained by injuries re ceived. S. S. Rickly, president of the Capital City Bank, at Columbia, Ohio, and brother of John Rickly of this city, was shot at noon on Wed nesday of last week, by a man named Andrew Eichenberg, throngh the head while standing at his desk. Eichenberg was on the street and as soon as he shot Mr. Rickly he plaoed the revolver to his own temple and shot himself, dying almost instantly. It is believed that Mr. Rickly will recover, but with the loss of both his eyes. The trouble between them grow out of Rickly's refusal to loan Eichenberg money. On Wednesday last J. B. Wells and Platte Baker of this city weut up to Albion to take charge, of the train between Duncan and Albion, the former as engineer, tho latter as fireman. Wc learn that it will be a mixed train, leaving Albion at 7 the morning, and connecting with th the U. P. express at Duncan. This will giye an opportunity for people along the line to reach Columbus readily and our business men should see well to it that sufficient inducements are held out to make it an object for them to come in. Mr. Pickett of Ravenna, Ohio, has purchased two hundred acres of land east of Sheedy'a on the Bluff northeast of the city, where he will probably locate his family next spring. Mr. Pickett has been a prominent citizen of Ravenna, is a gentleman of culture, and will make an excellent citizen of Platte co. . Barnum's greatest show on earth is advertising Columbus more than any one thing has done in a long time. The show here is his only exhibition on this trip, between Omaha and Cheyenne, and all the towns, villages and neighborhoods for a radius of fifty mileB are being billed for the great show. Last Monday we stepped into the establishment of I. Oppenhei merjustashe was selling s large bill of goods to the WoodB Bros., who live about 200 miles above Co lumbus. He sold them nearly a ryear'd outnt and bought 3,000 pounds of wool in exchange-. Dav id City Republican. - An excursion train consisting four passenger coaches besides other cars for provisions, &c., passed west at 10 yesterday. The train was decorated with flags, and the ex cursionists seemed to be enjoying themselves hugely. They were Fremont Odd Fellows going to Norfolk. i The young folks had a good time last Wednesday evening with their ice cream and lemonade festi val at the M. E. church. The rush was great, and the boys were so anxious to obtain their cream and cake, that they tried to procure them through the open widows from the outside. Dr. A. G. Morey, well known to many of our readers here, writes ns a bu6inec8. letter from Harlem, 111., and sends ns the following lines : Hurrah 1 for General Garfield, right noble man and true: Shake out the grand old banner of the red, the white and blue, And where the Demon drove the hogi, send Hancock and his crew, k we go uarafciaf on P. T. BARNUM'S GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH Coming to Columbus, Saturday, July 31, 1880. Barnura is coming the real, genuine, unadulterated Barnum Barnum who under the pretense of being a humbug has given more wholesome amusement than any nun who ever lived in it, is surely and really coming to Columbus with his " own and only Great Show on Earth." The wuOLEshow is coming, too, not a part of it, for Barnum never di vides his show, and the same attractions will be given in Columbus as he gave in New York, Boston, Chicago and all the large cities east and west. Owing to the fact that he has announced to show in Cheyenne on Monday, Aug. 2d, ho will be able to giro only one exhibition here and that one In the afternoon. This will give all our country friends for fifty miles round a chance to see the greatest and best show in the world and return after the performance, as trains will be run on all roads at reduced, rates, and our towns people can go as well, as Barnum's tents ure largo enough to hold all comers comfortably. "We copy the following from the Boston Journal: Now a word for the perform ance. It wan all that was claimed for it by the managers. The rand entree was perfectly Immense. The wonderful feats of the Trakene stallions under the direction of Mons. It. if. Dockrill; the Nelson family in their novel acrobatic and nosturinc feats and as fiddling clowns. The excellent maneqe act of jiauamc juari.ua uiu nun iic)aiu, SIgnora Marcellus in her classical prin cipal act; Miss Emma Lake in her tine equestrienism; Mr. Orrin Hollis' bare back act; the horse Salamander, leaping through the nrey hoops; Madame Nel son and her trained doves; Madame Dockrill, in her reckless single and six horse priding;. Mr, Whlto and his per forming oxen; SIgnor Sebastian and'bis little son, in their startling bareback act; the leaping horse, the bounding stag, and the batout leaping by tho en tire troupe, ending with Mr. John Batcbclor's double somersault over the backs of Hoven elephants follow each other in rapid succession, the whole properly spiced by the quips and qulrps of a half score of clowns, under the lead of Mr. John Robinson. But the great feature of the show, and one which elicits deep interest, is the startling act of the fearless little Zazel, whose dizzy walk on an almost imperceptible wire, her dive headforemost from an elevation of sixty teet, her flight through the air from the mouth of a monster cannon, are performances that excite the imag ination and please the fancy of the strong, and shake the nerves oj" the more timid. She is a graceful artiste, and uerforms what she undertakes grace fully, and without the least fear of danger. Tfce Fearth Faad. Capt. John Hammond believes In the public knowing tho business of the public. We summarize from his report as treasurer, tho following statement of course he has the same all itemized : Money received from Messrs. Spoonerand Schram of tho soliciting com., respectively, $68.50 and $43, total S111.50. Paid for hauling $7.95; Powder $4.00; Ship of state $16.35; labor, $4.50; prizes on races, $16.15 ; expenses of speaker, $18; printing $4.00; nails 80c ; ball players $5.00 ; band $35.00.

Thus another of Columbus's most ex cellent young ladies has been lost to our society, and while we congratulate the fortunate bridegroom on bis selec tion, yet we are inclined to object to young men from other states coming to Nebraska and taking from us some of our best young ladies. The happy couple started yesterday for Naples, 111., their future home, and where the bridegroom is now a success ful merchant. The wedding wa a quiet, but never theless i very pleasant affair.
