there is uo doubt but it will pay,

and spring, and perhaps pay "big."'
An alarm of fire was jriven at
three o'clock Thursday morning last
from the residence of Mrs. J. Gre
gorius, but was quickly put out on
tbe arrival of some of the neighbors.
The cause was the bursting of a
lamp.
An itinerant scissors-grinder
attracted attention Monday by his
wagon and dog-power the latter
being a hollow wheel about fourteen

The west two-thirds of lot 4
block US (where Oehlrich Bros'

The St. Paul Phonograph has
some bitter things to say of Colum
bus. If they were all as true as
bitter, Columbus would certainly
be a bad place. The Phonograph
should not "draw upon its imagina
tion for its fact?.'
The heaviest hail storm ever
known at Rising fell last Wednes
day evening. Large stones, break
ing glass, killing poultry by the
score; crippling and killing hogs
and severely bruising herders. So
ays the Independent.
Thomas M. Wilson of Bismark
precinct leaves us a sample of corn,
four ears, planted the 20th of May,
plucked the middle of August,which
unitedly measure forty-eight inches.
How is that for "long7? He says he
always selects hi seed corn early.
We desire to greatly increase
onr subscription list this fall, and if
all the readers of tbe Journal will
speak a good word in that direction
we shall be much obliged to them,
not only, but will be enabled to fur
nish them with a still better news
paper. The soldiers' re-union began
Monday, at the old fair grounds,
lying between Lincoln and the asy
lum. Tent capacity for 12,000 per
sons has been provided, besides two
tents for assembly 1,200 and 2,000.
The last three days of the week are
expected to be the days.
L. Kramer bas now received a
complete stock of fall goods, a lar
ger and better assortment than ever.
He earnestly invites all to come and
examine his stock, to make selec
tions while the assortment is com
plete and to see how much you can
gave by trading with him.
From the Fremont Herald we
learn the names of tbe ladies of tbe
excursion party who narrowly escap-
: ed injury here the other day at the
depot Mrs. II. J. Lee and Mrs. G.
A. Stanley, the latter being the lady
who was struck by the engine.
A. C. Turner, one of the pro
prietors of the Jouunal, left on
Wednesday last for a sojourn in
eastern Ohio, bis old home, Ue was
accompanied by Mrs. M. K. Turner
and her son Ralph. This is their
first visit to the old home siuce com
ing west, in 1S70, 71.
M. Burns brings us, from an
eighty acre field iu Madison county,
owned by tbe Gross Bros., the lar
gest and best ear of corn we have
seen this year. It is the admiration
of all who see it. It was planted on
the 22nd of May. We have had
wonderful corn weather this sum
mer. Carl Kramer, representing the
X. Y. C. C. Store, and Ed. Shaw,
representing Jno. Wiggins were
out wholesaling last week, and vis
ited Lofat Creek, Genoa, Fullerton
St. Edwards and Albion. They re
port the country as prosperous,sales
good, and hundreds coming to the
Columbus Fair.
We live in tbe country ourself,
but we have heard several remark
that last Sunday was a very mean
day in the city so hot and so dusty.
However, there is compensation al
ways, for Monday was cool and de
lightfully pleasant. What humanity
nceds to learn is to strike a general
average in all such cases.
M. Burns, who has recently
been sojourning at Atkinson, Holt
Co., eighteen miles above O'Xeill,
says tbat oats, potatoes and corn
look splendid; that the country is
filling up fast; that there are no
railroad lands in Holt a great ad
vantage to settlers; that tho new
depot at O'Xeill is about completed
and the first train of the Elkhorn
Valley will be run to Atkinson next
Saturday.
Phil Cain, oneof the staunch bus
iness men of Columbus, who can see
as far through a millstone as the
next man, arrived in the city yester
day with two car loads of potatoes
and a carload of water-melons; the
potatoes he sells readily at $1 per
bushel, and the watermelons at fif
teen cents each. We might say in
this connection, tbat Phillip has a
forty-eight acre potato patch, which
promises to yield one hundred bush
els per acre. Lincoln Journal Sep.
Drd.
Co. B. Knmmer Guards, under
Capt. R. II. Henry, started for the
re-union at Lincoln yesterday morn
ing, on tbe U. P. via Valley Station.
The number reporting for duty was
thirty and they made a fine appear
ance. We learn that all the tent
which had been erected on the
grounds last week were blown down
Saturday night. If the hoys have to
go upon ''the tented field" without
tho actual canvas tents, during this
cold, wel rain, it will be an occasion
long to be remembered by them.
The Omaha Telegram advises
the State Fair authorities to make it
no hot for gamblers and tbeir asso
ciates that they will decamp. The
races have made them more plenti
ful at Council Bluffs. The Telegram
avers, and perhaps truthfully, that
"there have been more ro? series and
murders committed on tbe piece of
ground lying between the river and
the bluffs than on any other spot of
tbe same extent in the United
States." In this state of affairs it
will not be amiss for those attending
the Fair to be watchful.
During the night of the last circus
here one of the employes got drunk,
lay down near the railroad track
with his right hand over the rail,
went to sleep, and wakened minus
the whole hand except the thumb.
Of course he had to have a surgical
operation performed, and bas been in
the hospital ever since uutil dis
charged the other day. It is bearing
such expenses as this, on account of
d unkenness, that makes the honest,
hard-working, tax -paying citizen,
opposed to drunkenness, a habit
loathsome to all right-minded men.
Jno. Elliott exhibited us a very
fine specimen of sorghum syrup,
manufactured by Mr. Kerr, from
the amber cane grown by himself.
Mr. Elliott says that the seed was
planted in June; that he put in one
half acre, working it like corn, that
the stalks grew ten to eleven feet
high, and tbat from the half-acre was
manufactured just eighty-nine gal
lons of syrnp, and it is excellent, as
we can testify. When such syrup
as this can be made, we consider the
saccharine problem settled for Xe
braska, especially as Mr. Elliott as
sures us tbat a good sugar can be
readily made from the same cane.
The creamery is in favor with
farmers, as the product of nearly
300 cows has been promised. For
the present, both the "Elgin" or milk
gathering, and the "Hawkeye" or
cream gathering systems will be
adopted. In these ways the farmer
gets about $1 per 100 pounds for his
milk and in the vicinity of 15 or 16
cents per inch for his cream, an inch
of cream being equal to a pound of
butter. This will make a cow, be
side the calf, bring tbe farmer from
$50 to C0 per year. Any one by
communicating with Mr. n. P.
Smith can get all the information
desired. It is probable that the
creamery will get into operation
before a great while.
D. Anderson is about to enlarge
his stock yards, erect additional
sheds, and put in a set of large sized
stock scales, using the old ones for
weighing grain and hay. He will
feed 200 steers the coming winter,
and expects to feed high priced corn
to high priced cattle and high toned
hogs. He claims there is cheaper
hay and more of it and bigger crops
of corn in Central Xebraska than
any where else in the United States,
and he is one of those very fellows
that don't weaken even if corn, in
price, does go out of sight.
The Seventh Day Adventists of
this state will hold their annual
camp meeting at this place, begin
ning Sept. 21st and continuing till
the 27th. Elder G. I. Butler and
other representative men of the de
nomination will be iu attendance.
The camp is to be located about one
half mile southwest of the city in a
grove near the Loup bridge. The
principal meetings will be held in a
large and comfortably seated tent,
40xC0 feet, while several tents some
what smaller will be pitched for the
accommodation of those who are not
provided with family tents. Their
bills invite everybody.

We had some sctrictures to make
last week upon some of our officers
who had in their possession a war
rant for the arrest of a man charged
with a grave crime against a young,
married Polish woman.
It seems the case has been dis
missed, without an examination, the
prosecuting witness not being pres
eut. The Justice makes a statement
which we publish below:
"In regard to the State vs. Ander
son, I will say, Anderson appeared
in court at 0 o'clock a. m., Sept. 3d,
1SS1, asked for a trial ; I told him
he could not have trial until the
prosecution had reasonable time to
appear, that I would continue the
case to 12 o'clock, m., and would
inform the prosecuting attorney
what I did ; at 12 o'clock Anderson
appeared, and again asked for trial.
I then continued the case to 2
o'clock, p. m., as there had been no
appearance on tbe side of the pros
ecution. "At 2 o'clock p. m., Anderson
appeared with prosecuting attorney
Geo. G. Bowman. Attorney Bow
man briefly stated they had not been
able to procure evidence on the part
of the prosecution, and asked that
the case be dismissed for want of
prosecntion, and the prisoner dis
charged. "Anderson asked me if he had to
pay any money. I told him if he
was acquitted the costs could not be
taxed to him; he then asked me if
the State would not pay me my
costs ; I told him, no, I had no way
of getting my costs, as the State
never paid on any case when the
prisoner was discharged.
"Xow, it has been stated by some
claiming to have interest in the case
that there had been a sum of money
paid to tbe court and to prosecuting
attorney. Xow, I will be qualified
that I have no knowledge of one
cent being paid by Anderson, or
any other person, for the purpose of
acquitting Anderson ; if any one
baa paid or any one received any
money, it has beeu done outside,
and without my knowledge.
G. B. Bailey,
Justice of the Peace."
