Under date of Aug. 4th Jacob
Judd writes us from Grant Prarle as
follows :'Cool nights for harvest"
Yes, I should say so when we had
frost last Sunday night. I had a
piece pf corn sown on low ground
that was badly cut by the frost, also
potato tops, but did not hurt corn
planted in the bill on full as low
ground. Done harvesting. Wheat
is good.
John Wise, Co. Commissioner
was in town Monday. We consider
it a duty that w owe to our fellow
men to warn them agaiust shaking
hands with John. He is a very
cordial man, has a.big, strong hand,
and a grip like a vice. When he
has a mind thereto he can make you
suffer. When we meet him, these
days, we stick a lead pencil at him
to shake.
In last week's Journal the
salary of tho City Att'y was acci
dentally put down at $300, when the
proof-reader should have made it
1200. The Journal doesn't like to
be mistaken even on such a small
matter as f 100 on a yearly salary,
because, as it is, the city attorney
gets 64 cts. for each and every work
ing day in the year, whether he
works for the city's benefit or not,
and it would not be right in us to
allow the Journal to say that he
waB getting 96. Be it remembered
then that he gets 64 cts. a day.
Andrew Hess, a bar-tender on
11th 6t., came near haviug his eyes
blowed out of his head, and his head
blowed off his shoulders Monday
afternoon. He was scuffling with a
mau, who knocked a cigar out of his
month, which went among some
boxes under a counter, dropping
upon a package of powder, not
known to have been there. Hess
went for it and as he was about to
pick it up, the flame flashed jip into
his face, burning off his moustache,
eyebrows, Ac. Yesterday morning
he was complaining of a pain in his
i C. P. and A. B. Dewey ol Cadiz,
Ohio, tarried in the city one day
last week on bn&ines. Each time

Some time since we printed an
article copied from an exchauge
containing, among other things, the
seutiments that a saloon is the poor
est investment that could be made
to build up a town ; that aside from
all moral considerations the traffic
is a curse to any commuuity ; that
the burden comes squarely on the
tax-payers at last, and they have to
pay for the crimes that are commit
ted by those who are under the
influence of liquor, etc. The article
should have been credited to the
Osceola Home Ifews Instead of to
the Record.
About four weeks ago, John and
Kate Bender with their dilapidated
and forlorn looking outfit, stopped
in front of Sheriff Spielman's resi
dence, where Kate entered the
house and endeavored to trade a
heavy gold ring for some food ; the
old gray and bay horses, and the
four squally little ones in the wagon
particularly attracted the attention
of the Spielman family, and that
wretched looking outfit has been the
subject of conversation frequently
since in the Spielman household.
They represented that they were
emigrating from Oregon, where
there was a severe drought, to the
State of Illinois.
From all tho recent devclope
montfi, it looks as if the real Mr. and
Mrs. Bender, formerly of Kansas,
and of murderous notriety have
really been captured by the Sheriff
of Fremont and a citizen of Colfax
co., our Dan. Condon, who first dis
covered them. A requisition has
been asked for, which has been asked
for, which is expected to be received
in a few days, when these suppos
ed wicked criminals will be remov
ed to Kansas, where they commit
ted several horrible murders. The
former charges against John Beqder
and his wife wbilo liviug in Kansas
were the murders and robbery of
the following persons, so far as
recoenized : W. II. York, G. W.
Louggear aud daughter,L. G. Brown,
W. F. McCrotty, H. V. McKenzie,
Peter Boyle, and John Brogert, and
how many others were killed at
their horrid slaughter-house, If
any, is not known.
J. C. Morrissey returned from
Chicago Thursday evening, more
than ever impressed with the over
shadowing power of the great
metropolis, which reaches with its
giant commercial arms to the utter
most ends of the earth for business
and wealth. He likes the life of the
city, its enterprise, its ambition and
its ceaseless activity. He was par
ticularly struck with the business
done at the sessions of the Board of
Trade. This corporation pays a
rental of $30,000 a year and has a
lease of the building for 80 years.
Each member's annual fee is $800,
and the amount of business transact
ed Ib simply wonderful to think of.
The enormity of some of the opera
tions carried on in Chicago may be
seen from the fact that one packing
company employ 3,000 men in their
works, one-half more than the num
ber of souls in the city of Columbus.
A canal is talked of to lake Erie, and
a water connection with the Missis
sippi. Cbicagoans confidently pre
dict that they will have, in time, the
largest city In the United StateB,
larger than New York, even, because
they will have a thickly settled
country in every direction around
them, and tributary to them as a
depot of supplies and of surplus
products.
Down go the rates. 8pecial in
ducements are now offered to every
one to attend the Grand Triennial
Conclave of Knights Templar, to be
held in the city of Chicago, August
16th, 17th, 18th and 19th, '80. It is
expected that the whole world will
be represented. Many thousands of
dollar in prizes will be awarded,
Arrangements are now pr jcfei
whereby this will far surpass any
thing of tho kind ever before wit
nessed in America. Tho entire
Lake Front Park covered with tents,
loaned by the war department, under
special act of Congress, passed in
April last, to shelter the people. The
Grande Musicale et Dansanie, ten
dered by the Sir Knights, of Chicago,
to their Fraters and Ladyes Faire,
will be given at the grand Exposi
tion bnilding, which has a capacity
to accommodate 75,000 people. This
sight will have to be seen to be
appreciated. The grand competitive
prize drill to take place at the
Chicago Jockey and Trotting Club
track will be extremely attractive
and exciting. An elegant building
iu the form of a passion cross has
been erected ou Lake Front Park for
the sessions of the Grand Encamp
ment. The great Chicago, Burling
ton & Qnincy R. R. Co. will sell
tickets from all statioua on their line,
at only 2 cents per mile, from Aug.
16th to 18tn inclusive, aud good to
return until, and including August
21st, 1880. For further particulars
apply to any agent of this Company.

requires fully double the rolling
stock it formerly did to meet tho
demands of travel. Two sections
are run where once but a car or two
sufficed to till the requirements of
regular trains. Many new coaches
have been added, and they are mod
els of elegance and comfort. Thou
sands of tons ot new steel rail of ex
tra heavy weight have been laid the
past few months and the track has
been brought up to tho highest
standard. Not long since one en
gino made the run of 63 miles in 69
minutes, and another covered 92
miles in an hour and thirty-nine
minutes. Both these runs were
made without any extra prepara
tions and by the ordinary locomo
tives of the road. The dinine balls
under the new order of things con
tinue to call forth hearty encomiums.
Certainly no line now has finer meal
stations than the B. & O., the food
served being of the best and cooked
to perfection. .The transfer of the
New York trains of the road by tho
monster steamer Canton across the
bay at Baltimore, is an immense
improvement over the old ways.
The transfer is now made In five
minutes, a saving of nearly a half
hour over the haul through the
streets or the long dingy ride in tho
tunnel under the city. The B. & O.
has evidently determined to sustain
its well-earned reputation as "the
model fast line," and before the year
is out other improvements will be
made which will create no little in
