This country has two distin

otherwise they could not handle.
The Jouiinal job department
has recently turned out three briefe
for "W. S. Gcer, Esq., who is having
quite a practice before the Supreme
Court of the State. There is no
doubt but the Judge is fully aware
when he has a good grip upon a law
point, and be is not apt to let go of
it, cither.
The letter press at the U. P. de
pot office with the bed or platform
of half-inch solid iron well braced,
literally broken through both bed
and braces, by the pressure put on
at the wheel, would seem to indi
cate that a "heap" of muscle not out
wardly perceptible must be covered
by the clothes of some of the boys.
John Huber was keeping close
watch of a fellow last Wednesday,
simply because a horse had recently
been stolen in Colfax county, which
answered pretty well the descrip
tion of that on which the stranger
rode, and besides, his actions wore
a very suspicious face for an entirely
innocent granger boy. When John
pounces he generally knows his
"bird."
Clarence Newman who was
elected last fall to the supposed office
of Clerk of the District Court, in
forms us that 'ho wishes everybody
to distinctly understand that their
Clerk, he will not, he cannot be, be

have decided that the office cannot
be filled till 1883. There was a
frieudly test case submitted to the
Court-
Another snow storm set in Mon
day morning about 3 o'clock, the
wind being in the southeast, an un
precedented thing, so far as we are
able to learn. Our rains in the spring
are generally from that direction,
but the coldness of our atmosphere
on account of the great amount of
snow is probably the cause of turn
ing this moisture into suow. Any
how it is here as we write (Monday)
after as fine a day and as blue a sky
as one wishes to see.
The high waters of the past
week resulted in making the con
nections of railroad trains very un
certain, causiue no little inconven
ience to travelers and shippers and
general unpleasant and vexatious
results in the delay of mails. No
trains came down from the west
Saturday and from the east connec
tions were stopped for a time, owing
to water on the track between AmeB
and Fremont which prevented the
running of engines. On Monday
the express was again making con
nections, though considerably be
hind, transportation across the flood
ed country to the east being made
by teams and wagons. No trains
have been able to reach this point
from Lincoln over the A. & N. since
Fridav. the Platte bridge having
partly washed away. It is expected
that trouble from this source has but
barely begun.
It will be remembered that sev
eral years ago a case of horse steal
ing occurred In Platte county, R. G.
Applegarth, living near Genoa, los
ing a couple of horses. Two bro
thers by the name ol Flour were
arrested for the crime. They had
their hearing before H. J. Hudson
who was then a justice of the peace,
and were bound over to appear
before the district court, and suc
ceeded in finding bail. They did
not put in an appearance before the
district court, and we believe that no
decided action was taken at the time,
nor has there since been anything
done, for what reason we do not
know. But it appears that the mat
ter is now to be pushed and it would
seem that if the law is to be vindi
cated, some final disposition of the
matter should be made. Officer He
Mahon is in possession of facts that
show that the whereabouts of the
Flour brothers is well known, as
also one of the stolen horses.
FATAL ACCIDENT.
A Young Lady is Killed by the Fall
ing in of the Roof of her Sleep
ing Apartment.
On Sunday last Dr. M. D. Thurs
ton and wife and siatcr-iu-law left
the city for Kearney to attend the
funeral of Miss Cordelia Waite,
daughter of J. B. Waite of that city,
and a sister of Mrs. Thurston.
The deceased was a young lady
22 years of age, and came to her
death on Friday last in a manner
particularly sad, which will make
her loss all the more distressing to
her relatives and friends. It ap
pears that she was engaged in teach
ing school.about 14 .miles from Elm
Creek, and that her sleeping apart
ment at her boarding place was a
sod addition to a frame building, the
roof of which gave way some time
during the night after she had re
tired to bed, crushing her to death.
The accident was not discovered
until the next morning, when the
corpse of the poor girl was found
among the debris with one of the
heavy timbers of the roof lying
across her chest.

James Galligan, while out hunt
ing the other day, started up two

Annie Gogan of Shell Creek. They
are passing the honeymoon among
their friends in the valley.
Since Lent has somewhat impeded
the progross of matrimony, court
ing, etc., some of our anile country
baches say they will go into town
next week, where courting will be
more legally administered, and that
to the figure of the law.
Frank Rivet, an old resident of
Shell Creek who went to George
town, Col., last fall, writes home
that there is five feet of snow aud
the thermometer 40 degrees below
zero yet. It is sheltered so much
with pine timber that you never get
a breeze of wind, and can work very
comfortably out of doors.
Miss Lightner, teacher iu district
44, while returning home through
the 'storm of last Weduesday, got
lost and happened to meet her
brother-in-law, who was making his
first visit to the country, who was
also bewildered in the storm. By
chance they reached the house of
John Degan, where they were hos
pitably entertained.
At a party recently given at the
residence of James Cooney, while
one Mr. W. was enjoying a game of
cards, Cooney's hired man went out
and removed his team to a wagon
nearer the house. W. going out and
finding his team gone, in angry dex
terity jumped on ahorse belonging
to Mr. M. to go in search of his team
and the party who bad them out ; a
few minutes later M., learning his
horse was gone, accompanied him
self with three or four boys and a
quartette of young ladies, and took
J's.team out in pursuit of his fellow
explorers, to bunt up his horse ; the
snow was deep and both pursuing
parties got lost and were out for sev
eral hours nevertheless the night
was fide and all hands enjoyed a
good time. The girls hope Mr. J.
will get his team up in better trav
eling order by the next dance, that
they are solicited to enjoy a sleigh
ride at.

Two Very Imporlunt and Sim

Beast.
The first pertaius to livestock, par
ticularly cattle. At this time of
year, especially this season when
feed is scarce, many poor animals
suffer from lice. The National Live
stock Journal, the best authority on
stock matters perhaps in tbo whole
world, every month answers ques
tions for its subscribers, giving rem
edies for different diseases of stock.
In the March number the celebrated
veterinary surgeon, Dr. Paarcn,
gives some advice regarding the
plague of lice on cattle. Cleanliness
of the stable and body of the animal
and a good dusting of woodashes. is
the burden of his instructions. How
ever good all that may be, the writer
of this has found by experience a
more simple and effective remedy.
He keeps a salt trough, to which all
his stock running loose has access.
Here he places as often as required
salt that has mixed into it sulphur,
say one pound of the latter to ten
of the former. Ho then wets it with
water and it then forms into a hard
mass which the stock lick. A few
head of his cattle were troubled
with lice, one poor cow so badly
that he feared for her life, but very
soon after getting to the salt and
sulphur she and all the rest were
perfectly clean.
The second, and by far the most
useful of the two remedies, I find in
a German medical journal. I have
not tried it, but a number of cases
are montioued where it has relieved
(not cured) the most unfortunate
ones of mankind, viz: epileptics:
As soon as the patient feels the pro
ceeding symptoms (aura epileptica)
come on, ho has to take and swallow
a mouthful of common kitchen salt.
It is asserted that in every cise it
has prevented the attack. If that
proveB to be the case many an un
fortunate one will thank the Jotut
xal for the communication.

Not having seen anything in your
valuable paper from this place for
some time, one would suppose we
were either frozen to death or blown
out of the country; but such is not
the fact; we are still here and are
likely to be for some time, unless
Mother Shiptou takes us away.
Suppose the people of' Columbus
were aware they had a storm last
week, and we had' a light breeze up

Our staunch friend R. C. Moran

Panhandle state. Mr. Col. Robert
Moran has erected a very nice dwell

Our schools are in a flourishing
condlllon.'and generally well attend
ed, even through the stormiest
weather. Mr. John Scudder, jr., is
teaching the west Creston Bcbool,
and is doing good work, we believe.
The parents seem to be deeply in
terested iu the education of their
children in this and surrounding
communities, and I feel it a duty to
offer my thanks to the good parents
of ray district (Sherman) for the in
terest they have taken in the school
this winter. My school has averaged
during the three past months, eigh
teen. Parents, this is the kind of
spirit teachers like to see in you.
We thank and praise you for all
your kindness to us who have so
many difficulties to contend with
while teaching.
People are generally contemplat
ing good crops this year, and we
truly hope they will realize all they
expect with the interest amounting
to as much as the past two years
crops added. Respectfully,

DIpktherla. Cure.
Mr. J. H. Watts of this county,
whom we have kuown for years as
a truthful, reliable man, tells us of a
cure for diphtheria that he thinks
ought to be universally known, and
applied when that fearful disease
makes its attack. The medicine he
speaks of he says was prepared years
ago by his own family physician in
Dupage Co., 111., Dr. HIatt, who was
for nine years the family physician
of Mr. Watts. He says that he has
known of two hundred cases treated
with this medicine, and never once
a failure to cure ; that it works like
magic, and with it at hand, diphthe
ria (commonly recognized as a very
dangerous malady) is not so harm
ful as an ordinary "cold." We are
informed that one of our druggists
will shortly be prepared to furnish
the remedy to those who may call
for it.
Editor Journal: I understood
one of our county commissioners to
say in last week's Journal that
there had been no report made of

the assessors have made report
thereof according to law.
