this city while dressing a turkey a

the Journal in the issue of the 12th
inst., that a fair would be given on

ty, Neb. "We wish him the best of

ure of forming his acquaintance and
learn from him personally, what
branch of the Thomas family he hails

Mr. John A. Stevens, the author
of "Unknown," .will pass over the

best plays on the road, and Mr.
Stevens, who used to be a manager
in Omaha, has the reputation of
being one of the best character ac
tors on the stage.
The State Fish Com.uus:tu con
signed last week to Mess:. Unlit
aud Arnold, commissioners lot this

tVhut remains will be distributed
according to the orders of the com
mission, in streams and living wa
ters with outlets.
The family of Mr. A. E. Sage
was recently augmented by one a
bran new sou having made hi.- ap
pearance, which, iu the course of
human events, is an ordinary ocoui
rence; but that the neighbors, each
one ou his or her own individual
motion, should on the 12th day after
the birth, call for the purpose of
offering congratulations, etc., is not
so ordinary, and was certainly a
very pleasing tribute to the popu
larity of the family among their
neighbors.
A little bad blood boiled over on
lltli street Monday, and policeman
McMahou was obliged to interfere
ou behalf of the peace and dignity
of the city. In attempting the an est
ot one James Webster, Patrick

men were taken into custody. Web
ster was found guilty of disturbing
the peace and fined $1 and costs, and
Faha was held for trial to-day on
the charge of resisting and abusing
an officer to which he plead uoi
guilty.
.
A communication to the Jour
nal, complaining of the ungentle
manly conduct of a young man
toward a party of young ladies and
their escort while sleigh-riding in
the city the other evening, U not
published because we do not con
sider a newspaper the proper source
to seek redress for such grievances.
The first and natural theory for the
righting of a wroug of this character
would be such a chastisement at the
bauds of the escort as would act as a
practical aud salutary lesson iu to Mi
ners to the young man ; and secou iiy,
we have a police force for the pur
pose of seeing that no rowdyish -la-duct
shall interfere with the rights
of any person iu our streets.
"The Octoroon'
Siuce the undertaking of Mr. An
derson to put ou the above entitled
drama at this place, a combination
of uutoward circumstances cold
and stormy weather, sickness in the
cast etc., have rendeied the task
anything but easy or pleasant; but
he has finally, alter being obliged to
postpone trom the original date, con
quered all obstacles, and to-night
"The Octoroon" may be seen at the
Opera House, played by a cast of the
best amateur talent of the city.
Through the courtesy ot the man
agement, a Jouknal reporter was
admitted to a last rehearsal on Mon
day evening. The play is a good
one, full of thrilling incidents, in
terspersed agreeably with comedy.
The principal parts are strongly lep
resented, with a support that does
well in short, the eutertainment,
from a social standpoint will be a
success. Let verybody go aud see
for themselves to-night.
Messrs. Weber & Knobel inform
us that scarcity of corn in this mar
ket and the high price demanded
has compelled them to go away
from home to purchase, and that
last week they received the second
car-load from Butler county. Other
parties have, also, purchased from
the same market. There is consid
erable corn to spare in the county,
but farmers are evidently holding
for a better price later in the season.
It occurs to ub, however, that the
demand tor ground corn could, by
some display of enterprise, be fur
nished by those in that businecs at
home. We believe that it is pretty
generally conceded that cattle thrive
much better on ground feed, and
Mr. Weber says that he and hie
partner have demonstrated to their
satisfaction that 100 pounds of corn
meal will go as tar as 150 pounds of
shelled corn ; also that hogs which
follow the cattle will do equally as
well. These gentlemen have had
large experience iu feeding and any
suggestions from them are worthy
of consideration.
--
Who Will Start It'.
In a recent issue of the Journal,
sonio mention was made of the in
vention, at this place, of a rope-making
machine by Mr. John Harris.
That gentleman exhibited the other
day at this office, a model of his in
vention, which clearly evinces the
fact that the machine will do all that
is claimed for it. The material from
which the rope is to be made, pre
pared flax, hemp, etc., is wound
upon spools, which are then attached
to the machine, the number of spools
to agree with the number of threads
required in each strand of rope.
From this point the process of twist
ing the strand, laying the rope,
slartching and winding it upon the
reel ready for the market is perform
ed by the machine. A large machine
with a capacity for turning out 25
foot of rope a minute, or 15,000 foot
a day, would, Mr. H. estimates, cost
about $40U.
In the common interest of the state
and particularly Platte county, we
would like to see a rope manufactory
started in Columbus, believing as we
do that an Investment in an enter
prise of this character would be a
good addition to the business of the
city, and prove remunerative to
those who might engage in it, create
an industry that would materially
aid our farmers in rendering their
lands profitable, and utilize what are
now useless products. Mr." Harris
with bis model can be seen at the
Nebraska House.

Tho following brief treatise and
suggestions on the treatment of this
terrible disease we find iu one of
our reliable exchanges. The au
thority is not given, but the sugges
tions appear 60 sensible and tho
mode of treatment so simple that we
give it space in the Journal, hopiug
it may benefit some sufferer to
whom the prompt assistance of an
experienced practitioner is imprac
ticable :
"Diphtheria Is generated by breath
ing impure air, such as comes from
damp apartments, dirty cellars, gut
ters; sinks, decaying matters, pools
of standing liquids and other sour
ces ot filth. It is usually confined
to persous trom two ro fit teen years
oi age. The atmosphere, the breath
ing of which causes tne disease,
seems to be full of living things,
vegetable and animal, the bacteria
and tnicocoppins, some ot which
lodge in t' e throat and form white
spjotchi -. which are distinctive of
the nut adv, and win se presence
quickly n.i-ons the blood; hence
(here should he no time lost in send
ing tor a phx-ieinii, as the march ot
the disease is itlnnys rapid and its
virulence incieae every hour.
As with most other diseases,
diphtheria is more likely to attack
those whose systems have beeu de
bilitated by illness, poor diet, or any
cause whatever. Any irritation of
the throat prepares the way for the
disease. Any person n fleeted should
be taken to au upper room, into
which uo one should hate access
hut those in perfect health, aud who
have not tf e slightest scratch or sore
on any part of the botlv, particular
ly the hands. The room should be
veutilated all the time, all discharg
es should be quickly removed, the
clothing frequently chauged and at
once covered with water containing
carbolic acid.
Diphtheria taken from another
person is more malignant thau when
generated by bad air."
Il is claimed that the following
treatment will cure 19 cases out of
20, if promptly used :
Chlorate of potash, 2 drachm-;
hot water, ( ounces; alcohol, 4
drachms ; creosote, 8 drops ; muriat
ic acid, 30 drops.
This is to be used as a gargle ev
ery thirty minutes.
iutcrually, use the remedy :
Chlorate of potash, 3 drachms;
water, (! ounces; sugar, 1 ounce;
tincture of muriato of iron, 2
drachms.
Dose A teaspoon ful every four
hours.
