Another mammoth petition from
Ohio, (Dayton,) was received the

quarters : S. L. Barrett, captaiu ; D.
N. Miner, first lieutenant; H. D.
Coan, second lieutenant. S. L. Bar
rett has been appointed mustering
officer for the department of Nebraska.
G. W. Clark of Humphrey was in
the city yesterday on business. He is
one of the solid men of Platte county,
whose word is as good as his bond
and whose bond is as good as the
gold. He haB, what every successful
business man must have, the confi
dence of the community in which he
lives.
The Genoa Leader says it expects
to hear from its senior in the Sand
wich Islands, where he has gone to
hunt the Turner boom iu the Third
district. Are you not mistaken about
whore you expect to get your next
word from "the senior?" Don't you
expect to hear from him at the brick
building that stands on Yankee Hill,
near the city of Lincoln ?
Chas. Rickly was at Omaha last
week, appearing there upon his own
recognizance to answer to the charge
of selling liquor without a license.
We do not know what the grounds
were for a charge of that nature, but
Chas. iuforms us that the case was
dismissed at the instance of the attor
ney for the goverment, the evidence,
not sustaining the charge.
The guessing ability of our co-J
temporary, the Democrat, does not
.make itself very conspicuously felt at
these headquarters. The Journal
always prefers facts to fancies, truth
to lies, and straight talk to crooked.
The newspaper that talks what it
don't believe, what it knows to be
false, merely to affect the election, is
a miserable scab on the profession of
journalism.
The Chicago Comedy Company
played Hazel Kirke as per announce
ment Thursday evening, and drew a
fair house. In justice to the com
pany it may be said that they are
credited with givitig a good enter
tainment, rendering the play in a very
creditable manner. Had they artistic
ally presented''UndertheGas Light"
the first night they could have drawn
large houses every evening.
L. Kramer has established a
branch store at Schuyler, and on Fri
day evening Mr. Ed. SmithVrom the
store at this place went down to take
the management. Ed. has -been in the
employ of Mr. K. for upwards of
four years and has proven himself a
trustworthy young man, and has the
confidence of his employer. No
doubt he will make friends at Schuy
ler 3B he has in this city, and do a
successful business.
A birthday party was given at the
residence of M. Kuntzelmann in this
city Thursday evening last in honor
of the son Charlie's 21st birthday.
About forty neighbors and friends
were presnt and a splendid time is re
ported. Numerous appropriate and
useful presents were made which the
young benedict will find quite handy
when he comes to setting up a domes
tic establishment ef his own, an event
contemplated in the near future.
The "conscientious journalist" of
the Democrat, who never, no, never,
says what he don't believe, merely to
affect the election, justly condemns the.
Grand Island Independent for dis
gracing an honorable profession by
resorting to "a low, mean practice.'!
The Democrat's "blush of shame" will,
of course be felt even unto Grand
Island, where the "unmitigated lie"
was spun, which caused the brilliant
"blush of shame" upon the cheek of
our "conscientious" cotemporary.
One of our city justices adjourned
court the other day during the trial of
a case for the purpose of "having it
out" with an attorney whom he chose
to consider was reflecting on the hon
esty or ability of the court. For the
sake of attorneys it is to be hoped the
action will not establish a precedent,
as it might go hard with the gentle
men of the profession generally. As
a class we believe their training will
tend to develop better fighting quali-
tie of the sooth than of the muscle, j
The Union Pacific passenger train
from the west on Tuesday had on an
insane passenger from Oregon, bound
for Quebec, who performed the feat of
jumping through a car window and
not receiving any serious injury,while
hr- train was running about thirty
five miles an hour near PJnra CrerK,
to make up lost time. He imagined
that some one was going to kill him.
The train was stopped, and he wa9
taken to Omaha and sent on east.
Democrat.
John Kelly, a young man living
in Lost Creek precinct, recently busk
ed and cribbed ninety-six bushels of
corn iu ten hours. He did the work
upon a wager that he could husk and
crib one hundred bushels in ten hours.
It is said he was prevented from win
ning the wager by the conditions that
the corn was to be taken clean from
the part of the field husked over,
which was literally construed by the
judges, and the young man was fre
quently called back to husk a nubbin
that had escaped his notice.
Ernst, Schwartz & Co. will, the
first of next week, move their large
stock of hardware, &c.,into their new
store-rooms, corner of lltb and North
streets, where they will hereafter be
found with a largely increased stock
of goods, all varieties in their line
being represented. A special invita
tion is extended to their numerous old
customers to call and Bee them at their
new quarters, and to those who have
not heretofore favored them with
their patronage they would invite an
examination of prices and wares be
fore purchasing. 1
The third edition of Copp's Set
tler's Guide, a popular exposition of
our public land system, is before us.
It is edited by Henry N. Copp, of
Washington, D. C, the well known
author.' Ite price is only 25 cents in
paper and 75 cents in cloth : 8 vo.,
114 pp. The chapter on surveys is
illustrated, and shows how to tell
township and section corners, &c.
The chapters on Homesteads, pre
emptions, and timber culture contain
the latest rulings and instructions.
Every settler and land man should
have a copy of this valuable little
book.
The display of aurora borealis on
Friday night last was one of the finest
ever witnessed hore, extending easily
over one-third of the heavens. Not
in broad ribbons of light, it was yet
sufficiently brilliant to attract all eyes,
and the incessant play of the narrow,
long bands reaching from the horizon
almost to the zenith, frequently shift
ing, presented a panorama of new
scenes at short intervals that owing to
the diversified and brilliant coloring
formed a very attractive sight, and
will long be remembered as an extra
ordinary occurrence in the phenom
ena of Northern Lights.
Pi of. Thos. J. Bryant, (formerly
of Indianapolis, Ind.,) who is the
President of the well-known Bryant's
Business College at St. Joseph, Mis
souri, has published a "Chart of
Double-Entry Book-Keeping," which
is a practical "Key" to the science. It
isthe result of many years experience
as accountant, counsellor and teacher,
and contains information of great
utility to every accountant, office at
torney, teacher, and such others as
may have occasion to test the accuracy
of books, financial statements or busi
ness calculations. It will be sent to
any address on receipt of $1, by T.
J. Bryant.
The new hardware firm of Pobl
& Wermuth are now fairly in the har
ness together and trotting in good
style, and the Journal predicts that
they will not be the last under the
wire in upholding the business enter
prise of our city, and proving that
they are gentlemen that are entitled
to the confidence of the community.
Mr. Pohl is well known to the citizens
of Platte county as connected with
the implement and hardware business
of the city for a number of years, and
Mr. Wermuth, the new member of
the firm, is a young man of first-class
business qualifications, for several
years connected with the Columbus
State Bank. 30-1 1.
A petition was being circulated
last week asking the council to amend
ordinance relating to stacking of hay
within the city limits, claiming that
unjust hardship was worked upon
many poor people in the suburbs that
was not necessary for the safety of
the city from fire, or something to
that effect ; we did not see the peti
tion. The council should deliberate
well before doing anything to cripple
necessary fire protection in the city.
It is a lamentable fact that many
streets, alleys, and vacant lots and
even the square in which stands the
hall where tho honorable body that
frames the laws of the city holds its
deliberations is a mass of dried weeds
that want but a spark to start into a
confligration that might prove very
disastrous.
A death occurred last week at the
Sisters' Hospital under particularly
sad circumstances. Several days ago
a young man by the name of Frank
Hensley turned up at the U. P. depot
in a sick and mentally deranged con
dition to the extent of not being able
to tell where he wanted to go to or
where be came from. He was taken
to the Lindell hotel and soon after
sent by direction of the county au
thorities to the hospital, and Dr. Ev
ans instructed to attend him. The
doctor pronounced him dangerously
vill of typhoid fever. From letters in
hf&poesession it was discovered that
he had a mother and sister in Iowa,
and they were immediately notified
of the condition of their relative.
Wednesday the young man died and
Thursday the mother and sister ar
rived in the city. The burial occur
red on Thursday and the mother and
sister went on to Cheyenne, where
the deceased young man had lived,
and where also lived another ton and
brother.
Salclde.
On Sunday morning last the friends
of Barclay Jones, of Genoa, were
shocked to learn that ho had commit
ted suicide. He went out of the house
early before breakfast, and his long
absence being noticed, one of the
family went out to see where he was,
and found him suspended by the neck
in his carriage house, dead. The cor
oner's jury, we understacd, found a
verdict in accordance with the above
facts, and that he had for some time
labored under mental depression.
We have not at hand the facts for
writing any sketch of Mr. Jones's life.
We had known him a number of
years, and with his many acquaintan
ces had come to respect him for his
many good qualities,. He had been
the subject of several misfortunes du
ring his life among them, destruc
tion of property by fire, and the loss
of a leg by accident, and be eeemed
to be more than unusually susceptible
to depression of spirits on account of
troubles incident to human life. We
are told that two members of his
father's family showed evidences of
insanity, but that Mr. Jones had never
before given any sign of having in
herited any tendency toward insanity.
Mr. Jones leaveB a large family to
mourn bis loss. Truly, ways of life
are strange, and human nature is so
wonderiully constituted that there is
no foretelling what is to take place. We
walk aud talk with our acquaintances
one day, and the next they may be
lifeless before us, and no premonition
of the change, no warning. Wicked
design, accident or disease may so dis
place the machinery of man's life that
time, with him, shall be no more, and
he be ushered into the realities of an
untried existence. Thankful for life,
thankful for health, let us all be doub
ly thankful for that reason which
holds the spirit of mau to his proper
work until his summons comes to de
part in peace.

A couple of gentlemen from Illi
nois who put up at the Lindell House
the other day, announcing that they
had come all the way ont here for a
goose hunt, took the east-bound
train for home the following morning
after having inquired the way to the
river and started out for their first
day's sport. They stated to the land
lord of the Lindell who met them at
the depot that they did not find the
river, but met a man who had been
down there and as there was no geese
they bad concluded to go home. The
little incident opens a wide field for
conjecture as to the probable cause for
so hasty a resolution to go home. It
is possible that they were exceedingly
fresh as goose hunters, and highly
colored visions had been too rudely
dispelled by a couple of hours devotet
ed practically to the sport.
Artistic Excellence.
Spexceb, Ind., Feb. 4, '82.
To all whom it may concern:
I deem it a privilege as also a duty
to commend to your community the
Stewart Concert Company, not only
because of their object, but because of
the excellence of their artistic labors.
Calvin Fletcher,
State Commissioner.
Platte Ceater Ite
Mr. Editor: The political excite
ment being over you will allow more
peaceably disposed correspondents to
come in again, and report the material
progress so apparent everywhere in
our state. Severn I new buildings are
rapidly goiug up in Platte Center,
which, with other enterprises, makes
it rather lively here.
Mr. Williams has opened a new
boarding house and is doing well.
Wm. Bloedorn's hardware store is
well patronized and will soon be
moved into his new building being
erected for it
Dr. Powel's new house, intended
for a drug store, a harness shop and a
dwelling is nearly completed.
The Sunday school people are also
up and doing. They intend holding
a Sunday school concert on the 26th
at 1)4 o'clock p. m. They have invit
ed the Sunday schools of Wattsville
and Postville to participate, and in
tend to make it a success as far as
good vocal and instrumental music,
declamations, dialogues, etc., can make
it so.
In the country around the city of
Platte Center we also notice much
progress. New buildings are going
up everywhere and old ones are being
enlarged and improved. Up Shell
Creek we see quite a number of good
buildings. One substantial improve
ment was made by Mr. T. Fiynn for
Mr. A. Heiurich in the shape of a new
brick basement under his house. The
Joseph's family and Mr. R. Lewis
have built good houses. Others we
will notice Next Time.
Sparks treat Graavllle.
Messrs. Jefferson Cosby, Hiram
Cosby, and Clinton Spaur, have gone
to Dakota in search of a new Eldo
rado. Mrs. Charles Cosby has beeu very
ill for the past week.
Mr. P. J. Coleman is teaching the
Humphrey school at forty dollars per
month. Term, six months.
The Granville Literary will be re
organized at Clark's school house,
Friday night, Nov. 24.
J. H. Milslagle has purchased Jos.
Stewart's farm for $2200.
Some of Columbus' best men'(so
called of course) tried by all honora
ble and dishonorable means to per
suade a gentleman of this vicinity to
vote and work for E. K. Valentine.
However, they found (perhaps to
their astonishment) one man, if no
more, whose principle is not for sale
or rent. They shall, no doubt, be re
membered if ever they do appear on
our county political race-course.
Now, let me remark by way of a
Tonic that "J. J. M." may be com
posed and not derange bis extraordi
nary mental talent about any "false
hoods," which I may have written to
the Jouknal while at Creston, for
every word that I have ever commu
nicated I proclaim truth, and am
ready to prove the same. If he has
any more to say, let him come to the
original subject, Mr. Olson's charac
ter, and I am ready to meet him ; oth
erwise, I will pay no more attention
to his ludicrous writings.

In there a Remedy Tor It?
Mr. Editor: Will you be kind
enough to insert in your widely read
paper the description of a newly ap
pearing fatal disease of young cattle?
May be one of your numerous read
ers, or able correspondents can give
a remedy.
Several young cattle, spring calves,
thus far, have fallen a prey to a pecu
liar trouble. They begin to swell
about the head until it gets to be about
twice its natural size ; they stop eat
ing, breathe with difficulty until
finally they cannot breathe at all, and
die, apparently of suffocation. Sever
al nice shoats have also died. They
begin to swell under the jaw and die
soon, and after death the skin rapidly
assumes a dark color as of mortifica
tion. What can be done for the poor
calves and pigs? Inquirer.

The following complimentary
mention of two leading business in
dustries of our city is made by a cor
respondent of the Omaha Herald in
writing up the place :
The pork packing house has been
enlarged, the creamery has given sat
isfactory returns, and these solid in
dustries have been started by the solid
men of a live town, who own all the
stock. $109 was offered last week for
creamery stock and no sellers. Great
opening for more creameries in Ne
