The Nebraska diocesan council will meet for the election of bishop for Nebraska, Nov. 5th. Two elec tions have failed in securing the consent of the persons elected. The Episcopalians of tho state are anx iously awaiting the reeult. Police Jndge Hensley ought to know by this time that he cannot "mould into a unification of nation ality the heterogeneons classes of this young state," by a fine of $5.00 for gambling, and do the moulding in good shape. The world-wide 6tar, Robert McWade, supported by his foil dra matic company will present "Rip Van Winkle" at the Opera House in this city on Tuesday evening, Oct. 14th. "Old" Rip" and "mine little dog Schneider" should received a packed house. The sermon by Rev. E. J. Robin son, pastor of the M.

Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Gerrard at tended the Baptist Sunday School Association at Madison, Neb., last week. Interesting sessions were held, animated and progressive dis cussions were interspersed among the exercises. Sunday School literature was one of the topics. We always begin a weather item referring in any way to the future with more or less misgiving, but we can safely say that, so far, this has been one of the remarkable seasons in Nebraska frost has held off wonder fully, vegetation is still growing, and, in some instances, budding the second time. Doctor P. Dougherty has accept ed the position of house surgeon ten dered him by the manager of Mercy Hospital, Chicago, and left this city Saturday. The Dr. is a bright, gen ial gentleman and we expect to see him return to Columbus, where ho has made a host of friends in the six months he has been here. Sec our proposition for tho Jour nal and tho Weekly Chicago Trib une, until tho issue after the pres idential election, for 75 cents. Present subscribers to our paper can obtain the Tribune free by paying a year in ad vanco for the Journal. Wo heartily wish all our subscribers would avail themselves of this liboral offer, tf For the benefit of all shows of the cheap minstrelsy class depending upon tho gullibility of the public to enable them to meet their just debts and make tho next town, we will say that this city will not prove a success. It has been tried more than ouce and failed. The latest in this Hue was Bates & Harper's Plantation Jubilee Singers. On Wednesday last one M. B. Paist was arraigned before Polico Judge W. N. Hensley, on a charge of keeping a place for gambling, or words to that effect. On a plea of guilty and a promise to quit, tho Judge fined him $5.00. It is under stood that his fine was made up by some of those who had frequented the place. A citizen of Columbus takes ex ception to tho inference conveyed by Mr. Truman's declaration in last week's Journal in regard to the atti tude of Columbus toward township organization. He claims that Colum bus is heartily in favor of the system, the idea, but thinks tho present stat ute needs many amendments, which will, no doubt, be made by the next legislature. Recently at the Episcopal church, tho baptism of four children was ren dered interesting to the parents par ticipating by an incident pertaining to the element used. The wator used was from the river Jordan, obtained by some of Mrs. Hoist's relatives. The parents were, Mr. and Mrs. G.W. Hulst, Mr. and Mrs. O. T. Roen, Mr. and Mrs. Y. T. Price, and Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Macfarland. George C. Stephenson, of Madi son, was shot the other night about 10 o'clock by Mrs. Mary E. Morrin. As he was not expected to live bis deposition was taken which is in sub stance that he was sitting on a waeh tub, speaking in a friendly manner to the woman, who, without warning, drew a revolver and ehot him, the ball entering his right breast near the collar bone, and penetrating tho right lung. The memorial baptismal font ob tained by tho Easter offering, in memory of Bishop Clarkson, has been placed in the Episcopal church. The carpeting of the entire church, with the gifts of the Bishop's chair, altar and lecture cloths, make tho building more handsome and comfortable. The Rov. Dr. Goodale has requested his people to consider this means of memorializing, and of rendering tho building more churchly. .

Select reading, Mr. Lee. M. E. Coalter, E. E. Bauer, W. H. Tedrow, Ex. Committee. There is, by all odds, loo much looseness in the world. A man, known to the writer many yearB ago as a model boy, was in town last week, ovidently just recovering from a periodical spree, said he couldn't rid himself of his habit of drink, and wanted to borrow four dollars to buy a ticket to Omaha, where he could get money of a relative and return it. Ab a youth, he was intelligent, agreeable, polite, noble, and promised a useful and valuable life for his parents and the community ; as a man he has dis honored his parents and made of himself a nuisance to himself and his country. We may not know where was the turning point of his life, but somewhere he chose the road leading in the wrong direction, and hat nerer retraced bis steps. PenoHal.

What a Reporter kas to Say of Some of Them. J. II. GALLEY Jfc BROTHER, who have been residents of this coun ty for 25 years, have entered upon a new era in their business. Tho build ing in which they have been doing business was recently enlarged; its length increased 44 feet, which is now 90 feet. The location is choice, and at tho present time will compare favora bly with any in the city. The im mense invoices of goods, now in stock, and which monthly pass in and out of this 6tore, make a significant factor in the growth of our city. Viewing it as we do, in the light of an enterprise wherein only good can be found, it is a pleasure to commend it to our read ers. Upright dealings, more than any other one thing, make business with a firm dosirable. Such has been their record in tho past, and such, we say with confidence, will continue to be their record in the future. With straightforward words they tell what they know of the goods sold by them. No article in any way misrepresented. Careful adherence to honorablo meth ods, and a careful compliance with the golden rule, have made them the stand-by of their numerous friends. Having a large establishment iu Creighton, and buying in job lots, they are prepared to take the lead, and are able to keep it. They deem reputation for honesty of more value than dollars won by tricks. We em phasize the fact, no competition can equal them on this basis, and they stand in need of nothing but the op portunity to form the acquaintance of the people to have their share of pat ronage. Go to their store, examine their goods, and when they recom mend any article, your confidence can well be placed on their statements. Thoy deal in staple and fancy dry goods, notions, gents' furnishing goods, boots and shoes, &c, &c. Their establishment is on 11th street, near Ernst, Schwarz Ss Co's. hardware storo. Remember that this firm aro owners of property here, and assist in the upbuilding of the interests of tho city. In a word, enterprise, honor ablo business ways, fair prices, and truthful representations of goods, are some of tho excellencies of theso gen tlemen. FRAMES, FEATHERS, AC. Samuel Gass offers tho brass-end cornice poles, spinning wheels, cur tain fixtures, socond-haud heaters, brackets and cloak shelves, chromos, glass of all sizes, all medium grades furniture, at his store, 11th street, southwest of Lindcll Hotel.
