The Henrys have a considerable
herd of cattle at their ranehe ou the
Loup. About 0,000 Jiead besides
1,300 calves is not a bad reckoning.
Their range is 75 miles in circum
ference. To preserve the Buffalo
jrrasx that i cured on the ground,
they plow two circles at a distance
apart ot half a mile- and less, and
burn belween. This leave; them a
good fire-jinard and plenty of prov
ender for tbftir cattle during the
winter. It is probable that h few
years at farthcnt will seo the end of
large cattle ranges so laras western
Nebraska is concerned, as home
steaders are going forward to occupy
the land.
The concert, readings, speeches
dialogue ice, givon by the Sunday
School scholars at the M. E. Church
last Wedne-day evening brought
out a full house, as well as filling
considerable space on the outside of
the church. A great amount of mu
sical talent appears to be brought to
gether in the school, and even the
small and young children performed
their parts exceedingly well. "Come
iu" and "Don't Forgcttho Old Folks,"
with the skill shown by Mr. Graves
iu whistling, with organ accompani
ment the "Mocking Bird", was rich
ly worth two admission fees. Par
ties who were present say it was the
best performance ever given in this
city by the Sunday School.
In our opinion the complaint
made by II. T. Spoerry against Snpt.
Barrel!, although proper to be plac
ed on file by the. Coiumis-iouers,
should not have been spread upon
the records, unless it was the inten
tion of the Board to move upon him
for neglect, of official dut, which of
course I hey had no thought of doing.
It ha the appearance of having been
done simply to gratify II. T. Spoerry,
and uothing more. "Wherever II. T.
is known he is regarded 38 a "chronic
grumbler." Doubtless he would
resent such a phrase, ami say that he
was after justice, fcc, and perhaps if
he was U'-s uoisy aud more respect
ful ot hit- fellow-men he would be a
"power" in the land, but business is
one thing and bluster is an other.
H. T. Spoerry and S. W. W.
Wilson have both said to us thattbe
Board of Equalization heard a com-
plaint thoy had to make in regard to
the unequal assessment of the lands
of Humphrey and Stearns precincts.
Their complaint was (so they say)
that while both precincts contain the
same quantity of land, and while
Humphrey has several miles of rail
road track, besides a depot, never
theless the total land assessment of
Humphrey is leas than that of
Slearns by 20,000, Humphrey being
put down at ?2.50 an acre and
Steams at 43.25. Both these men
say that each and every man of the
Board promised them that the mat
ter should be fairly adjusted, but
that they tailed to do so.

south ot the citv. The weather w.ir-
iutenely warm which will i a
measure account for the large score.
We take this occasion to say to
outside ball players who expect to
play here Urn season that they had
better yet used to swill pitchiug if
they expect to have any show at all
with ourbova. a Dan Kavanaugh is i
getting to be a b-a-d man in that
POSltloti: oesmes naviuu ji c
swift delivery, he now ireld the
'curve" very essential iu all good
" prolessiouals," thereby deceiving
the striker. Il, as some one called
him during the game of Friday, a
"moss-back" and 'hay-pitcher," he
can still toss a ball to good effect,
aud with Charley Wake, or the
"living skeleton," as he was jokingly
called on the ground during this
game, to take them "hot" trom the
bat, and the other players in their
respective positions, it will take
more thau an ordinary team to carry
off the laurels. AVe have so much
faith in this club as now organized
that we would be willing to wager
a month's wages (if we were a bet
ting character) that Ihe Columbus
boys can walk away with an) nine
that may .ee tit to vinif here, Omaha
aud Lincoln not excepted.
Below will be found Ihe score ot
! Friday's game. We understand the
return game will he played at David

, HiiiBum'x Great Show.
The interesting aud attractive adver

the coming to Columbus on Saturday,
Jul 31, ol Uarmini's greatest show on
earth, when he will give a grand per
formance in the afternoon nnly as he is
announced lor Chevenne .Monday. The
following from the Chicago Intei Ocean
will ;ivc ur readers eoine idei of the
great treat in store lor them:
Barnum and humbmr have long been
!sociatcd iu the minds of the peopli?,
and ct. of late years, he ha- given the
people less claptrap and more sterling
vnlue tor their monev thau am
other showman. Indeed, we lind in his t
exhibition a ehamcteri-tie distinguish
ing tew oircuneH he advertises onl
what he mean- to exhibit, and to ad
vertise what he doe- exhibit would
take up more space in the columns of a
newspaper than the political situation
will at pre-ent allow. At the u-ual
spot on the Lake Front, the first per
formance wa- given yesterday, and it
was largclv attended." The tenth rover
an enormous area, and the accommoda
tion, a- far -is cleanliness, comtoit and
attendance are concerned, ire what
intent bo expected from such a veteran
as Il.trnum. The eirMi-. the iiienagrrie
and the inu-cuin are full oi r.ire nov el
ties and interesting euriooiticn. Among
the latter uiav be mentioned Zulus,
captured iu Africa by the British .sol
diers. Our old friend, Capt. ("ostentenus.
re-ajipears with his body as varieg.teu
as ever, and i- the center ol icmalc ad
miration; while Goshen the giHnt, and
Queen .Mab, the Indian .Midget, form as
striking a team as ever. The ring per
formance could .scarcely be excelled,
aud includes some innov "ations the per
forming oxen, the leaping t.ta:r, the lire-bor-io,
and the flock of trained doves,

.six-horse equestrienne, unquestionably

as the couspicuous arena features. Za

one of the sensations of London aud
Paris, closes the performances. It mav
be mentioned that Barnum with his
usual skill, ha? in the East, managed to
work up some, curiosity as to whether

First the people there elected an
editor superintcudent of a Sunday
School, and now they have been
holding court in a church. Some of
the lawyers were so rusty that they
couldn't work their way into the
church, aud it was reported that
even Judge Post was so bewildered
that he remarked to the jury that
