A business letter from John Hu-

George Smith (Brady) an estima
ble young man living a few miles
west of the city, died Saturday last.
He had had an attack of fever, and
gone to work before fully recovering.
It is supposed tbat the fatal result can
be attributed to this cause.
Ou Nov. 18, from C. G. Beals, on
the Niobrara 15 miles below mouth of
Long Pine, was stolen a team of work
mares, both branded LTB on right fore
shoulder; one blind in right eye, and
with scar ou left hip. $150 reward
for team and thief, $50 for the team
aloue.
One of eur citizens tells us that
he narrowly escaped serious injury
the other day while crossing the rail
road track. There was no sound of
whistle or bell, or sign of motion of
the cars until just as he was crossing,
a train began to move up nearly strik
ing his buggy.
Louis Stracke, proprietor of the
Central House, Columbus, was in

lent physician and good business man.
The Madison Chronicle adds to
what we had to say of Barclay Jones :
"He had tbocoutract for carrying the
mail between this place and Albion,
wjiich he sob-let to Lark Wyatt, ot
this county, but he had not delivered
the papers. However, before taking
his life, he had them made out in
good shape, ready for delivery."
It was a mistake that Miss M.
Coulter of the high school was afflict
ed with diphtheria. It was not diph
theria or anything resembling it, not
even a severe sore throat. On the 10th
she was out in the suow, and contract
ed a severe cold. Constant use of the
voice in the school room the follow
ing week induced bronchitis. She
was to take her place as usual on
Monday.
O. H. Archer of the Journal
force went to Staplehurst, Seward
county last week, to take a week's
rest after the work of the recent cam
paign, on the Journal. It seems
that the campaign did him some good
he isn't so lame as he was, with
rheumatism, and, from the way in
which we find some of our exchanges
coming to us, we should judge that he
had got rid of it by giving it to them.
Mr. Oleson, late republican and
anti-monopoly candidate for county
commissioner, was in town Monday.
He looks in as good health as usual,
and certainly in as good humor. No
man who voted for him need be
ashamed of his act, because Mr. Ole
son would, beyond question, have
made an honest and capable guardian
of the county interests, and we have
no doubt that his campaign was con
ducted in a spirit of pcrlect fairness.
On Friday last, the dwelling
house of Julius Hoth in Bismark pre
cinct, was burned down with all its
contents, including clothes and other
personal property belonging to new
comers, friends of the family. A can
of coal oil in the upper story helped
the conflagration along. August
Bettcher's mother, who was one of the
four women present, was pretty badly
burned in face and hands. Nothing
is known as to the cause. Loss, about
$3,000. No insurance. Moral: In
sure your property with Gus. G.
Becher & Co. 1
The Kendall Company have been
playing this week to the largest
houses of the season, and deservedly
so, as this is undoubtedly the best the
atrical company traveling in the west,
and is composed of people whose
equal is seldom seen in towns of this
6ize. Monday night the play of "Guy
Mannenng" was produced, and it is
safe to say tbat no finer piece of char
acter has ever been witnessed in
Grand Island, than that of Mr. Ken
dall, as Meg Merriles ; at times he
soared to the sublime. Mrs. Kendall,
as Julia Mannering, shared the hon
ors with him. Of-the other mem
bers of the cast, want of space pre
vents a lengthy mention. We hope
to h&re the Kendalls here again this
season, and can assnre them a hearty
welcome. Grand Island Tones.
The editor of the North Bend
Flail is not altogether happy, even
though his patron saint, is supposed
to be elected, but pines in rhyme for
his native hills, and seemingly be
cause, at this great distance from head
quarters, the campaign fund was
rather thinner than the Flail appetite
w u!d have had it. Some social phil
osopher used to preach that there was
food provided for every month which
came into the world, but the Flail
does not seem to be pleased with the
share that was vouchsafed to it; at
least we most believe tbat the follow
ing wail means something to the pur
pose, which can only be on the sup
position tbat the word "lavishes"
should be italicized, as we take the
privilege of doing:
"O give me back mv native lands,
That flow with milk and honey;
Or where old Hubbell stoutly stands,
And lavishes his money."
If it is in order, we move that the
Flail's portion of the fund be doubled,
and this we are mainly induced to do
because of the literary excellence and
classic finish of the Flail's sweet dog
gerel linen during and since the recent
campaign. The Hubbeli fund must
not all go to the metropolitan papers,
the press monopolists, so to speak, if
we can help it. Of course, poor Hub-
bell cannot be justly blamed now for
everything tbat went wrong during
the campaign, and especially so far
away as North Bend was from him,
but we must, some how, get the Flail
nearer to where the fund was lavished.
We refer the matter to George W. E.
Dorsey, E?q. While we are about it,
we may just as well remark upon the
efforts of other literary gentlemen
during the campaign, who have not,
however, that we know of, made any
complaint of short allowance. We
can but make the suggestion, which
we do in the spirit of the utmost fair
ness, and if Mr. Hubbell or Mr. Dor
sey finds, upon examination, that due
and proper attention has already been
paid to the matter, and that these gen
tlemen have been rewarded from the
campaign fund, according to their
respective merits, all things consid
ered, why, then, there is no harm done.
We would like to see all the literary
and other brethren who used their
brain muscle lavishly, be "where old
Hubbell stoutly stands, and lavishes
his money." The Journal, in this as
in all things, is utterly opposed to
unjust, illiberal and outrageous dis
criminations, in favor of one or against
auy. There's Gere of the Lincoln
Journal, who wrote the platform, and
helped to publish some of the idiotic
campaign whoppers, he mu6t not be
allowed to staud in any place except
where the money is lavished. He has
been neglected entirely too much
already. It does seem to us that his
share bus been too small altogether,
or else his digestion has been exceed
ingly poor there may be a little of
both. Then there's the ogre of the
Omaha Republican he's big enough
of course, but his diet don't evidently
agree with him. He ought to be
"where old Hubbell stoutly stands
and lavishes" some kind of food, some
anti-fat preparation that would thin
him down to reasonable proportions.
There is no way fonnd, as yet, we
believe, for taking from the stature of
ogres, or we would suggest an appli
cation. Then there's Matthews of the
the (but we forget the name of bis
paper), who headed a list of names
two of which were forged ; his liter
ary efforts have certainly been wear
ing, aud he ought not be permitted to
stand ont in the cold, bleak winds of
November, but should be made to go,
"where old Hubbell or somebody
else stoutly stauds and lavishes his
money." There's Clark, too, of the
Genoa Leader, his work was not so
classical as some; not so chaste and
artistic as others, but it wai strictly
according to order, doubtless, and sat
isfactory to the customer, and we
appeal for fair play for him. After
all, we don't know but it is a little late
for these suggestions. Will some of
the brethren tell us whether "old
Hubbell" now "stoutly stands," or
stands at all, and if he stoutly stands,
whether he "lavisftes money?"
Anybody who has ever tried to
milk a kicking cow will appreciate
the desirability of knowing how to
prevent that inconvenient propensity.
To say nothing about the saving in
milk, it would be worth a very great
deal in preventing the wear and tear
of moral character which invariably
accompanies the performance. All
men have been agreed upon the saying
that he iB a benefactor to the human
race who makes two blades of grass
grow where but one grew before, and
no doubt all men and women will call
down blessings upon the head of him
who furnishes the method of even
making only one kick come whence
two had come before, behind ; we
find, however, a great lack ot faith on
this subject, among those who pump
the lacteal fluid, notwithstanding
which, we must, in duty bound as
journalists, continue to gather the
cream of all methods, and present it
for inspection. We expressly disclaim
any intention of raising hopes, but to
be blasted, and hence discharge our
selves of all liability in case disaster
follows this last method of proceedure
for kicking cow6 : "I tied the cow up
by the head (not by the legs), procured
a good switch (not a clnb) and pro
ceeded to milk, and for every kick I
returned one good smart blow with
the switch on the offending leg. A
few kicks and blows sufficed for tbat
time. At the next milking only three
or four were required, and at the third
milking one kick and one blow were
sufficient, and ever after the cow was
as gentle as need be. Three import
ant points are to be observed in the
above statement : 1. Uniform kind
ness. 2. Never strike a cow for
kicking when loose in the yard, or she
will learn to run from you. 3. Only
one blow for each kick."
The Journal is constantly receiv
ing new subscribers, but of course
we have abundance, of room on our
lists. Now, jusfnow, is the time to
subscribe for your local paper. In
the very first number you get, there
may be information valuable enough
to you to more than pay for the year's
subscription. Try it.
The transfer of land in Nebraika
still continues at a rapid rate. Tuote
who contemplate ever making Ne
braska their future home for farming
purposes, ought certainly consider
the propriety of making an immedi
ate investment in land, while it
can be had at reasonably low rates.
The advance in price the last two
years has been very marked. A good
crop next year (as there seems now
every prospect tor) will increase the
market price still more ; not all land
in Nebraska, by any means, is fertile,
but there are probably as many good
acres to the square mile as in any
other state, and our best land will
compare very favorably with the best
of any state. A farmer can, of conrse,
increase the fertility of soil by ma
nure and good culture, but it is the
part of wisdom to select in the be
ginning a naturally fertile soil for his
operations, and this, a man of a very
ordinary degree of good common
sense can hardly fail to do in Ne
braskaone of the chief troubles of
immigrants being that there are so
many good locations tbat it is difficult
to distinguish between them as to
which they had better purchase.
There is many a man living in the
east, with a growing family, subsist
ing on a few acres of weary land
worth fifty to one hundred dollars
an acre, perhaps, who could dispose
of his property, remove to Nebraska,
reinvest a portion of his money in
much better land than he 6old and at
a lower price, buy stock, and in a few
years give his oldest boy as good an
outfit as he uow has himself. Don't
ask us for advice, but come west a
few weeks, get acquainted with some
of our farmers, and find out for your
self just how they have done.

There was a large audience at the

come to Mr. Keudall and so great was
the enthusiasm that he was called be
fore the curtain after his first act. Mr.
K. as Meg Merriles was a grand suc
cess. This difficult character was
well rendered, remarkably so when
you consider the usual difficulty of a
gentleman in assuming a female char
acter, but in this case the metamor
phosis was so complete, and imper
sonation so perfect, that he received
rounds of applause. His support was
excellent, and general' satisfaction
was rendered. Mr. Kendall furnishes

The sociable, or "Neck-tie" party
given by the M.E. church at;Hhmph
rey, proved to be a grand success. I
am unable to give the net proceeds,
but judging from the crowd assem
bled there, I presume it was "a good
day's work" financially for the
Methodists. It was by far the best
party ever given in Humphrey, and
all enjoyed it except a few, perhaps,
who were, by the "neck-tie" law,
compelled to escort elder, or younger
ladies to supper than their fancies
dictated. We were happy to meet
Mr. Estep (formerly our pastor), and
his bride at our social gathering, ouly
we regret that his stay with us was so
short. But onr best wishes will

En. Jour'al : I have seen no items
lately from here. I thought I would
write a few.
The farmers are just beginning to
husk corn, which promises to yield
well.
A large number of the farmers
here have been making improvements
this fall; new houses, barns, corn
cribs, granaries, etc., and last but not
least, a new school house has been
built.
A neck-tie party was held at the
above school house a few nights ago,
which was well attended, and was al
together a grand success, those who
unfortunately were kept away, by
sickness, business, carelessness, or oth
erwise, will be apt to be found among
the present when another such occa
sion is announced. The money taken
at the party will bo used for the good
of the Sunday School held at the
school house, which probably accounts
for the large attendance.

Mr. Editor : I haye read in your
valuable paper that some one has
a6ked the question for relief of his
calves and pigs that have been dying
from a disease concerning which he
would like to be informed. The mal
ady described is bronchial catarrh,
catarrhal fever or malignant catarrh,
which makes the disease contagious
(putrid fever), which will communi
cate the disease from one to another.
As soon as a calf or pig is so affected,
it should be removed from the herd
and treated according as it is attacked.
Keep the animal warm, draw tUe
disease to the surface of. the throat,
and there iB no trouble to '-cure.
Yours respectfully,
Dr. J. C. Iiease,
