The Schuyler Sun refers to the
fact that neighboring towns are
talking of packing houses, cream

Rev. J. C Evans thinks that
Egyptian corn is more profitable to
raise than the ordinary kind. He
has found it so, at least, and it does

Columbus already has three
packing houses, and now another
one is spoken of aa almost a certain

the trade is now established here and

Seward Reporter.
A letter received here on Mon
day from St. Paul, Howard county,
says that John Robinson while out
hunting recently found a skeleton of
a man four miles north of St. Paul,
and a half mile from the railroad
track. By the side of the body was
a silver watch, a gold chain, a cuff
button and a revolver.
D. A. "Wfllard of Genoa was in
town Saturday. Nance county ia
doing a regular land-office business.
Many sales are being made, and at
excellent prices. Some lands have
trebled in value the last year. Nance
county has a recent accession as a
settler in a man from Scotland who
brought with him 190,000.
Saturday last A. "W. Doland and
family took their departure for
Council Bluffs, their future home.
A. "W. will still continue to travel
for Tolman & King of Chicago, and
at Council Bluffs will be nearer the
center of the territory over which
he works. A very worthy man, he
will achieve success, wherever he
goes.
Rev. Jno. Gray of "Wauhoo has
been engaged aa minister of the Con
gregational society of this place. It
is understood that he will begin his
labors about the middle of next
month. Since the departure of Rev.
Sherman, the congregation, with
commendable zeal, have held ser
vices every sabbath, though most of
the time without a minister.
The County Sup't. of Seward
county gives the public, through the
Beporter, the benefit of his observa
tions of each school be visits. He
also takes occasion to call attention
fb the lack of good desks and seats ;
of blackboards, Jfcc, &c. "Whatever
people may say, it does the managers
of schools good to criticise their
methods, and show where they are
faulty.
"We are moved to say that a brass
band is one of those institutions
which enliven a town, and add spice
and zest to every public occasion ; in
fact, an indispensable accompani
ment to city public life. The Colum
bus Corset Band have beea faithful
at all times, in seasoa aad oat of
season, and the benefit to them
shonld be substantial and solid, aa it
certainly wonld be timely.
"We are told that mosey has
been subscribed for the establish
ment of an oil mill here next seasoa,
and that the old Hoffman steam mill,
lately used aa an elevator, is to be
the oil mill. An institution of that
kind, it strikes us, ought to pay well.
There is an immense amount of flax
raised, and still more would be
raised, if there was a good home
market for both seed and straw.
Perhaps the most aged woman in
Nebraska is Mrs. Catharine M. Cal
laway of Butler county, who waa
born in 17S9, thirteen years after the
declaration of American independ
ence, and is now, therefore, ninety
two years old. Just at present she
is not well, but within tbe paat week
she has been able to be up and about,
taking care of herself, washing dish
es, etc and her memory is yet good.
Mr. Frank Price, the practical
man of the Creamery Association,
ia evidently the right man in the
right place. The project waa begnn
on the 28th day of Nov. and the 20th
day of Dec. seea the buildiaga en
closed ; the first of next month will
in all probability see- the machinery
in place, and the work of better
making began. Of course, the Ne
braska weather haa been very favor
able for the work, it couldn't have
been better, but mach depends upon
the ability aad energy of those who
have the practical management of
each institutions.
McCormick of the Oakdale Pen j The B. & M. Company have in
and Pfotc, says that about New corporated into their Time Table
Year's he will send a bill to his de-
Iinquent subscribers, together with
his picture. He acknowledges that
he is not good looking, and that the
chromo adds still more to his bad
looks. He thinks this an induce
ment for the aforesaid delinquents
to come and settle, and thus save a
nightmare. A unique method at
least, but probably a very effective
one.
The atone work at the creamery
ia completed. The ice house ia
nearly done. This enterprise, we
think, will add to the business of
Columbus more than is generally
supposed. It will be very profita
ble to keep milch cows within 'the
circuit,' which will make land more
valuable, and tend to make every
acre useful in the production of
milk. "When the farmer prospers,
and haa plenty of ready money, all
business feels the impnlrc
G. D. Grant, formerly of Ne
braska, now of Colorado, has been
making a short visit to his old home.
He showed us some splendid wheat
and potatoes grown in Colorado, by
irrigation, and expressed the opin
ion that our soil here by irrigation
could be made to produce double
that of Colorado, where they get 25
to 50 bushels of wheat to the acre,
and other products in proportion.
He told us many interesting things
about tbe climate of Colorado.
The last Schuyler Sun contains
a statement from Mr. Bliss and Mr.
Brandt, hog buyers of that place, to
the effect that owing to the estab
lishment of packing houses at Co
lumbus, the buyers here were pay
ing more than shippers could afford
to pay, and, besides, were getting
the best hogs, leaving Schuyler the
culls. On a shipment of $5,000
worth, one of these men made $55.
On a car load, which cost $77(3.85,
tbe other lossed just 45 cents. They
are compelled to say this in self-defense
for being charged as paying
less than Columbus prices.
H. M. "Waite was in the city
Satarday. He says that Pinkeye ha.?
struck the horses in his neighbor
hood, and pronounces it a bad thing.
He says it specially affects the kid
neys. He lost a mare for which he
had been offered $1200. . .Mr. "W.
has a notion that hogs are about the
most valuable stock to raise here,
because, as he says, a corn crop can
be always raised, and hogs multiply
more rapidly, come to maturity
earlier than other stock, and bring
good prices. He has 4000 bushels
of corn from 50 acres, and has sold
hog3 weighing, cleaned, 509, 512 and
5SS pounds.
Drs. Martyn and Thurston took
a trip west to Kearney last week, in
the neighborhood of which place
lives Mr. Thurston's father-in-law,
I J. B. Waite. They were having an
eye on sheep. Mr. "Waite has a flock
on which he has made a profit, this
year of fifty per cent. These gen
tlemen give a good account of the
country between this and Kearney,
and say that the towns are all thriv
ing, and especially Grand Island and
Kearney. The latter place haa es
tablished a fire-limit, in which there
are no buildings erected except of
brick and stone. A fine Presbyte
rian church and a handsome public
school-house have been erected this
season.
The wedding of our friends, Mr.
and Mrs. Seth P. Mobley, was large
ly attended at home. Turner Hall
was nicely decorated wilh ever
greens, and over one hundred guests
assembled at the tables. It would
be impossible, with oar space, to
enumerate the gifts received from
heme and abroad. The account in a
special and general way says among
the gifts came a whole wagon-load
of tinware, from a tin whistle up to
a bath tub. Judging from tbe num
ber of articles enumerated, these
parties will not need any more tin
ware daring the remainder of their
existeace, oa this' nundane sphere.
But the best thing connected with
this wedding is for the bride and
greom to kaow and realize how
i many true aad devoted friends they
have who always stand ready to
contribute to their comfort and true
happiaesB by exhibiting a friendship
that can alwava be trusted.
Now that the Creamery ia about
to start into operation it will be
advisable for farmers who contem
plate supplying milk, to begin the
study ef the business in all its bear
ings. Aad, as with every other
study, the first thing is to ascertain
the facta, and then, with all possible
speed work towards a perfect sys
tem. "We think they can count upon
a good demand and good pay for all
the pure milk they can furnish. The
Columbaa Creamery will have a
possible capacity of six thousand
pounds of butter a day, and of coarse
so long aa it is profitable, so long
they will make it. It ia conceded
by all intelligent farmers that it paya
to aell milk. Then, how to furnish
the moat milk at the leaat outlay?
becomes the important question.
And in the answer to that is in
cluded the breed, the feed, the spe
cial care, etc, & thousand things
that only the practical man, with
constant study and watchfulness,
can be master of. "We have our own
notions about these things, but we
prefer to listen to some one who can
speak with the authority of experience.
j No. 3S, general regulations for the
benont of their employees. Among
other things we notice that "coup
ling cars by hand is strictly prohib
ited in all cases where a 'stick can
be used to guide the link. Jumping
on or off trains or engines in motion,
entering between cars in motion to
uncouple them, and all similar im
prudences, are forbidden. Sticks
will be provided at train headquar
ters." From our observation of the
daring of brakemen in this region,
we should say that not one of them
had ever applied at headquarters for
a stick.
Tie Packinf IlHe.
This institution is now in full
blaat, slaughtering 100 to 150 hogs a
day. Three days of last week they
purchased $7,500 worth of hogs, and
purpose buying all that come. The
enterprise was inaugurated Oct. 15,
1SS1, by L. Gerrard, R. H. Henry,
D. Anderson, John Wiggins and
Samuel Cory, with a capital of $50,
000, and gives promise of being the
beat motive-power ever attached to
the business wheels of Columbn?.
Every arrangement for receiving
and shipping, as well as for slaugh
tering and curing, is complete and
ample, and those who have never
seen the work done In a packing
house will be amply repaid by a visit.
Prof. J. Henry Boyle, under the
auspices of the Royal Arcanum, will
lecture at the Opera nouse Wednes
day evening, January 4th, 1382, upon
the subject of Nihilism and the great
empire of the Czar; Ruasia, what
was, what is, or may be, govern
ment, church, education. Russian
life. The fact that the secret of Ni
hilism has been so well kept seems
to evince that it existed only in a few
heads and bands. But those few
hands had the means of penetrating
the innermost recesses of the impe
rial palace. They had at their dis
posal all the terrible enginery of
secret murder. One writer says:
uIt takes its uninvited seat at the
Czar's most private table ; the shad
owy form glides ominously among
his most trusted servants, and pene
trates the thickest lines of his sur
rounding suards." The interesting
topics of Poland, and Siberia will be
treated of, and the particulars of the

II. Single admission, 50 cts. ; season

Friday last W. T. Callaway waa in
the city preparing papers for the
arrest of a man whom he suspicioned
for setting fire to a grove on his farm
in the northern part of Butler coun
ty. The complaint was made on
Friday, before C. S. Burch, Justice
of the peace, and a warrant taken oat
for the arrest of one Frank Diamond
of the neighborhood. We learn that
the facts adduced before the Justice
were about as follows: On Thurs
day night near 11 o'clock Mr. Calla
way waa aroused by an alarm of fire,
and found that it was in his ten acre
grove on the soath side of his place.
Although there was a heavy south
wind, by the aid of neighbors and
others the fire was put out, not, how
ever, until it had burned over about
four acre3 of his grove.
There was every suspicion from
the circumstances, the situation of
the grove, &c, that the fire was the
work of an incendiary.
Friday morninr, as soon as it was
fairly daylight, Mr. Callaway weut
to the grove, and was not long in
finding the tracks of a horse. Get
ting some of his neighbors, Mr.
Derby, Mr. Jones and Mr. Bowlsby,
they made a thorough examination
of the tracks, finding that they were
those of a pony, shod in front with
patent shoes, and that the hind tracks
had a very peculiar mark by which
the animal could be distinguished.
It waa in evidence on the Trial that
the pony that made the tracks was
Frank Diamond's, bat aa this didn't
prove that he had rode the pony or
had committed the deed, he was, of
course, released from custody. Dia
mond's father swore that Frank had
been at home during Thursday night
From "The Time.
Editor of the Times: The state
ments recently published in your
valuable paper has created much
excitement in this city among the
class who own and use horses, and
after reading your request that all
should write yoa who had been ben
efited by the letter published from
Dr. Bates in regard to the remarka
ble success he always had with
Kendairs Spavin Cure, I decide to
write yoa my experience with it
My first knowledge ef this remedy
came through a visit to the office of
the Massachusetts Society for the
preventien of cruelty to animals.
This society waa the first to use
KendalTs Spavin Cure in Boston,
ana 1 waa informed by Charles A.
Unrner, a gentleman m whom I
bad the utmost confidence that they
had never used anything that work
ed so well for spavins or any lame
ness in horses, and he stated that he
gave it to poor men who had lame
horpea and would agree to use it,
and in this way he waa enabled to
get along without prosecuting them
aa it waa sure to cure when perse
vered with. Some time after thisT
received a very severe injury to the
knee joint and the high recommen
dations which Mr. Currier gave
KendaWa Spavin Cure, gave me so
much confidence in it that I used it
tor my knee with the very best of
results, and since that time my faith
has been so strong in the merits of
thia remedy that we will not be
without it in the house. IhavetriedT
it since then for foot-rot, aore teats
or warta on my cows teats also for a
general liniment for my bones or in
my family and I sincerely believe,
witb all those who have written yoa
before,there never was aa good a lin
iment for both man and beast ever
discovered before. Hoping yoa
will continue to give us more light
on thia subject, I am
Very truly yours,
