Next Tuesday is the first day of the annual exhibition of the Platte County Driving Park and Fair As sociation. Sunflowers may be a fitting emblem of acstheticism, but are quite too commou in these parts to be ap preciated. J. M. Macfarland went to David City yesterday and will go to Grand Island and take in the re-union before returning. C. J. Garlow, after his long and severe sickness, is out again, with a fair prospect of being restored to good health. James McDonald and Adda Millett returned from Denver on the morning of the 27th. They report a very pleasant trip. The B. & M. railroads in Ne braska will carry stock and articles intended for exhibition at the State fair free of charge. The special trains leaving this point are carrying a great many peo ple both ladies and gentlemen to the re-union at Grand Island. One of Bill Routson'a horses, worked on the street sprinkler was sunstruck Saturday, 60 Bill says, and for a time was completely blind. Probably the largest barn in this part of the country is being built upon the farm of John Favear by Fred. Blasser. The dimensions are 44x44 feet. Persons wishing Shiltz's or Metz's beer by the case can have it delivered by "Win. Schroedcr as cheap as-they can get it direct from the manufac turers. 15-4 Dr. M. M.

Go to the Excelsior Meat Market of Nickell & Gatward, Olive street, for your meats. They keep the verv best of everything. Make a specialty of pickled meats. 18 1 Mr. "Whitney, of the U. P. nine at Omaha, was in the city Thursday last to umpire the game between the "Wahoos and Keystones and called at the Journal oflice. The mother of Mr. John Tanna hill lately arrived in the city from Kansas and will make her home with hereon for the future, taking charge of his domestic affairs. T. H. Saunders, of Polk county, was in the city Saturday. He finished baying Thursday, having put up two iiKndred tons, and is now ready to attend the re-union at Grand Island. Prepare for the Fair. If the citj council will have- the weeds adorniuu(?) the streets in so many parts of the city cut down they will be doing a goc-d work, and for it ought to incur the lasting gratitude ot the citizens. Any one having paid up sub scription to the Journal for the year 1882, is entitled to a copy of Kendall's treatise on the horse, either by calling at this office or sending a stamp for postage. 14-tf Miss Uose Rickly goes to North Platte to-day and will spend several days visiting friend? in that place. Her brother Al. accompanies her, and will return to Grand Island to see some of the re-union. Chancellor Fairfield; of Lincoln will lecture this eveniug at the Con gregational church, for the benefit of the teachers of the institute aud the citizens generally. All are iuvited to come out and bear him. Thos. M. Wilson, living a short distance north of the city, left at this office Saturday aa nice a specimen of Early Rose potatoes as we ever re member seeing. Sixteen of them weighed 11 lbs aud 3 oz. Jeukinson Bro's new dray, which is now in the hands of the painter. Geo. Derry, aud which id intended for exhibition at the fair is a beauty, arid will rather eclypse anything in the dray line yet on the streets. Every farmer in Platte county should have samples of the products of the soil, specimens of good cattle, horses or hogs or any other live stock on exhibition at the fair. Next Tuesday is the day to bring them in. M. O'Toole tells us that at Wind ham, Minn., there is a machine in operation for preparing flax straw so as to save the valuable portion, only, thus making it valuable for shipment. The Schuyler Sun shows a corn stalk 14 ft. 10j in. in height, with two ears, nine feet above ground to the upper ear, and the rest of Ne braska is asked to go it a foot better. Land seekers form a large propor tion of the daily arrivals of the trains in the city all anxious to secure farms in Nebraska. Eastern people are beginning to find out that this is bound to make the best state in the Union. A scaffold on Mr. Senecal's new building in the north-western part of the city gave way one day last week precipitating one of the masons and the tender, Frank Owens, a distance of twenty feet to the ground. Both men were badly bruised but not seri ously hurt. The city schools will open the second Monday in September, the 11th. The teachers' institute will close this week, and then after a week to atteud the fair, teachers and scholars must for a time attend to the active duties of obtaining and imparting knowledge. Mr. J. P. Sprecher of Colfax Co., was in town Friday on his way home from Madison, where ho has been assisting Mr. T. J. Hunt in conduct ing a tcachem' institute. Mr. Sprecher is one of Nebraska's solid educators a man of merit whom all good teach ers appreciate. Michael Murphy, employed on the Oregon Short Line at Tunnel, Oregon, was killed on the 25th, by the falling of a bank under which he was working. His remains were brought to this place Tuesday, accom panied by Dan Condon, and buried at the Monastery. Rev. R. B. Wilson preached two very good sermons at the M. E. church Sabbath. It was an exposition of law, natural and civil, where poor human nature conld behold the sad picture of the violation and the rem edy. Such sermons cannot fail to accomplish good. At the sale of Martin Bloedorn on Monday, three-year-old steers brought $40, yearlings $24, and cows from $35 to $50; a yearling colt brought $140; a pair of mareB $412 ; sucking calves averaged about $16; sheep brought $3.90 a head. Everything else sold at proportionate round figures. Some apprehension has been felt that the dry spell of weather that we are having would injure corn. The early corn may be considered about out of danger, and the opinion of those experienced in farming in Ne braska soil is that even late corn i6 not suffering materially as yet. A letter from Em. J. Potts, who is connected with the newspaper history of the place, to Geo. Fair child, says that he may visit Colum bus ere long. At present he is travelling with his mother, Mrs. Dr. Potts, who is making a lecture tour in California. Em. is the proud "dad" of "just the smartest" little son. Seward county probably has a fresh murder case by this time. A young man by the name of Frank Reynolds, on the night of the 19th inst., during a quarrel with a section boss on the A. & N. road by the name of Lyttle, was probably fatally shot. The affair occurred about six miles south of Ulysses, Butler county, at a dance. Mr. Jas. Salmon has the contract for building aud has commenced operations upon a residence building for Mr. W. S. Wells from Illinois, who expects to make his future home in Columbus. The house is located on Olive street, just north of F. Brodfueher's residence, and will be a neat 24 fool square story and a half building, with a 12x12 kitchen and piazza around the whole. Mr. Jacob Kimmel, late operator at the A. ft N. depot at this place, left Saturday, over the B & M. road for his home in Somerset, Penn., where he has a wife and little boy. He left in a very delicate state of haalth, which was the cause of his resigning his position, and the many friends that he made in his short sojourn in Columbus will be pleased to hear of j his speedy recovery to health again. Mr. Fred. Blasser is erecting for Jos. Bucher a dwelling house in a plat he bad laid out for that purpose near his mill on Shell Creek, which will be quito an ornament to the place; the design is nnique and not at all com mon in this country, haviug a tower iu the center running from the ground winch will form an observatory at the top. Altogether the house will pre sent an attractive appearance when completed. We are informed that W. E. Wat son, of this county, intends disposing of bis entire Elm Springs herd of thoroughbred short-born and grade cattle early in October, which will be sold at public auction. Those wish ing to improve their stock will do well to keep track of this sale, and look out for the advertisements and posters that will 60on appear. He intends exhibiting samples of his stock at the coming fair. 18-2 A large crowd ot people wit nessed the trotting match last Satur day between the horses Sleepy Jack and Mat. Patrick. The race was de cided in favor of Sleepy Jack, he having been declared by the judges the winner of the two first heats, the raco being the best two in three, mile heats. If the disgraceful squabble of the drivers was intended as a part of the amusement for the 'spectators, that part of the programme was a decided failure. The American Agriculturist for September comes with its osual amount and variety of varied and in teresting information for the farmer, the gardener aud the good lady of the house. The truth is that no Ameri can farmer ought to be withont this magazine, any number of whieh con tains information enough to pay for a years subscription. See terms of sub scription elsewhere with tbis paper, or send a money order for $1.50 to Orange Judd Co., 751 Broadway, N.Y. P. W. Schmitz hit his horse a little too hard Saturday, and the ani mal put his feet over the dash board, and laid down on one side. P. W. fell out on the horse and climbed oat, and walked off aways holding his stomach, and seemingly oblivious to all other matters for the time being. Now the probability is that if he hadn't talked of betting he wouldn't have been excited ; if he hadn't been excited he wouldn't have hit the horse, &c. Judge Bowman thinks he will ride in an omnibus the next time he wants to go to a horse race. "Our Little Ones and the Nur sery" is the title of the beat child's magazine we know of, and published by the Russell Publishing Co., 36 Bromfield street, Boston, $1.50 a year. The September number is a "daisy" all the articles good, and each illus trated with splendid engravings. A ride on an elephant, the sand man, Kitty's friends, the stolen custard, a brave dog, Willie's naughty foot and the rest will be unusually interesting to the little ones, as likewise to the elders who have not quite forgotten the days of their youth. Michael Welsh returned Wed nesday of last week from his western sojonrn at Evanston, Wyo., where he has been at work the last two months. He says that Franz English is at Soda Springs ; Jno. J. Rickly, Chas. Draper aud Jno. Galley at Salt Lake, Dan. Ryan still on the Oregon Short Line ; P. J. Wheeler is putting up hay for the government surveying party; James Cuahing has come home ; Jno. Godfrey is section boss at Grange, Wyo., and, Mike says, oversees a gang of Chinamen ; Phil. Goodwin and E. Goetts, with their families, are at Evanston. Repabllcaa Preciact Caacai. At the republican precinct conven tion held at the Court House in Co lumbus on Saturday, Aug. 26tb, 1882, pursuant to call of County Central Committee, the convention was called to order by Hon. M. K. Turner, chair man of Central Committee. On mo tion S. S. McAllister was elected chairman and Louis Weaver sec'y. Moved and seconded that the dele gates to the County Convention be elected by ballot. Carried. Moved and seconded that the polls be open from 4 to 7 p. m. Carried. Whole number of votes cast 35. The follow ing delegates received the highest number of votes cast were declared duly elected to represent Columbus precinct at the Republican County Convention to be held at the Court House on Sept. 2d, 1882 : John Tan nahill, M. Whitmoyer, J. E. Moncrief, L. J. Cramer, B. R. Cowdery, G. W. Galley, N. G. Bonesteel, G. G. Becher, John Huber, M. H. White, J. W. Early, M. K. Turner. S. S. McAllibter, Ch'n. Louis Weaver, Sec'y. This community has had its dose of Batchellor & Doris' Great Inter Ocean Show. They came and showed on Tuesday last as advertised, draw ing a large crowd from the surround ing country, the streets of the city taking on a regular holiday appear ance. The menagerie was good and the double-headed lady is, undoubt edly, the greatest curiosity now in ex istence in the world and cannot be equaled by any rival show. The circus was fair, and in all features under the canvass it was an average good show. But there were too many "snide" followers for the good of the community, and the fact that there was fraud in the selling of tickets and in such a manner as to leave no doubt that it was under the sanction and for the pecuniary benefit of the concern, does not speak well for the honesty of the management. The fraud consist ed in having a ticket wagon bo located as to intercept the crowd in a direct course to the main entrance, where tickets were sold at an advance of ten cents by a loud mouthed agent, the regular ticket wagon being located a little ont of the way nearer the en trance and very qnietly conducted. This might not come under the statute of frauds but it, nevertheless, a fraud. BASE B4LL. The Kmb Game Between the Vt'ubooa and Keyntoaei). The third of a series of game be tween the base ball nine of Columbus and the Wahoo club was played a! the grounds of the Columbus nine at the Driviug Park Thursday. This game has been on the tapis for some time and has been looked forward to with considerable interest as the game that would decide which clubUwas entitled to the championship, thelfirst game of the series having been twon by the Keystones and the secoqfl by the Wahoos. A large crowd witness ed the game, comprised of ladief and gentlemen who accompanied r the Wahoos in a special train, and quite a number of ladies aud gentlemen of tbis city. The result is anything; but flattering to the Keystones. We understand that the betting fraternity are out numerous good dollars wager- ed on the result of the game. Below is the score as furnished us : WAHOO. Smith, c JlcKiuney, lb. G.Thomas, 3b. Johnson, p Orifflth, 2b... C.Thomas, s. a. Fox, I. f Horsey, c. f. .. Sherwood, r. f. R.

The hone thief mentioned in last week's Journal was captured at this point on Tuesday last. He came here in the employ of Batchellor & Doris' circus and J. C. McMahon, who was on the lookout for him, having ascer tained that he was not captured at Lincoln, to which point he had order ed his valiso sent from Burt county, succeeded in arresting and turning him over to Mr. Evn -. :'rom whom he 6tolo the horse, ami who readily identified him as the man. "Previous to his identification by Mr. Evans and son, who accompanied his father, he stoutly denied being the party wanted and had adopted a new alias, giving his name as Ed. McCreary ; but at the depot before his departure be met, by accident, his former wife from whom he is divorced and who is again mar ried and was visibly affected by the meeting, confessed that he was the guilty party and that his right name was Arthur Maxwell, which state ment was verified by his former wife. When the fact that the description had of the thief was slight and even inac urate, his capture here shows that Mac. is not slow in the detective bus iness, for which he undoubtedly has talent, as he has before demonstrated. That Maxwell was cunning and that the description of him did not aid a particle in his capture, is shown by the fact that he called iu person for his valise at Lincoln and waB told by the officer who accompanied it, to send for it the man to whom it was addressed. Of course it was not again called for, and had he not been cap tured here might have travelled in safety as an employe of the circus, and escaped the penalty of his crime. Later: Intelligence has been re ceived by McMahon that the thief made his escape the following morn ing after his capture. The parties having him in charge after leaving the railroad at North Bend pushed right on for the home of Mr. Evans where they arrived abont two o'clock in the morning, when Maxwell by working on the credulity and sympathy of his guards, succeeded in getting one of bis hands freed and immediately im proved the opportunity to make a break for his liberty, and though fired at the darkness and the trees through which he ran prevented the shots tak ing effect. Mr. Evans was warned by Mac. of the probable dodges that would be resorted to by the prisoner to have the hand-cuffs removed, and cautioned not to do so until he was safely turned over to the legal author ities of Burt county, which could have been done by driving a mile and a half further to Oakland.
