He tells us that one he tried to get out of the ground broke off; it meas ured eighteen inches in circumference. The school board had a meeting Monday evening at which the nego tiation of the bonds was the principal matter for deliberation, and the bonds will be put upon the market imme diately. The Herald congratulates Fre mont upon the opening of the Nor mal School, and notes the arrival in the city of numerous intelligent youths to take advantage of the situation. The Democrats had a grand jolli fication on Saturday evening last, but that was nothing compared to the rejoicing in every household upon the receipt of one of Krause, Lubker Jfc Co's. new heating stoves. J. C. Martin, Justice of the Peace elect for the 3d ward, will open his omce at noutson, waiaron s cos. old stand and contemplates associa- ting with him in the collection and insurance business Mr. W. H. Trekell. We are pleased to learn from Dr. Evans, who has been treating our friend, Albert Wilde, of Humphrey, that he is recovering rapidly from his recent sickness. A dropsical affection of the heart and lungs was his trouble. The Louise Sylvester Co. played to a good house last Saturday even ing. The company is a good one, but thi3 pencil doesn't think "Freaks" is so "awful" funny, after all, and fail ing to be funny it's a complete failure, as nothing else is attempted. The local in last week's Jocexal in the case of a young man taking anesthetics at my office, seems to have been misunderstood by the Editor, as the voung man referred to didn't take j evening (Nov. 19th,) at the store building, formerly known as Mar- shall Smith's grocery, one door east j of the post-office. Come one, come all. ' One bulletin in New York the ' other day read, "Blaine, Blaine, Jas. , G. Blaine" ; and another "Ma, ma, j where is my pa?" "Gone to the' White House, ha! ha! ha!"

Sterling Morton have agreed upon a platform upon which to found a new party and the fundamental principle-on which rests the superstructure of said party is "buy vour stoves of Krause, Lubker & Co." 1 Mrs. Loran Clark and Mrs. Rice were thrown from a buggy on the corner of Main and Fifth street elec tion day. Mrs. Clark's limb was badly fractured, but Mrs. Rice and Verne escaped with but slight bruises. Drs. Smith and Brown were called' and report tha their patient though suffering considerable pain, is doing finely. Albion Argiu. The prediction of the "oldest in habitant" of a mild, open winter a sort of perpetual Indian summer, eems likely to be verified. It's a cold day usually when a chronic grumbler can't find something to com plain of in the weather, but they will have to turn their attention to some other of life's manifold burdens, until we get a change at least. Rev. Dr. Goodaie will preach next Sunday, the 2d Sunday before Ad vent, in Grace church. The diocesan council in Omaha elected Rev. Dr. Worthington of Detroit as bishop of Nebraska. The council are sanguine of his acceptance. Two weeks more and the Sanday School will ester apon a new course of lessons aa it ia the BcgiaaiBg of aaotfeer charch year. The onion temperance meeting held at the M- E. church last Sunday evening was an interesting one. The conservative and radical elenlenta were represented. The home ele ment was ably set forth, while the radicals must have seen the force of the last speaker's remarks that con tinuance was the lacking trait, and j not enthusiasm or opportunities to vote. The friends of Mr. Henry Law rence, who lives near Platte Center, will be pleased to know that he may possibly recover ' from the illness which has caused his life to be des paired of. Doctor Evaas of this city performed a surgical operation on his side the other day and relieved him of about two gallons of fluid which had accumulated and was the cause of his sickness. Mr. O. F. Jarvis, formerly of Co lnmhns, now a resident of Kansas City, Mo, has secured a patent on a corn planter which he was at work on while a citizen of Nebraska, and which he has since perfected. He writes to W. B. Dale of this city to secure his aid in introducing his ma chine in these parts, and speaks in glowing terms of the perfections and advantages of the invention. As an item of local importance may be mentioned the fact that quite an extensive Platte county real estate transaction which would have result ed in the turning over of several hundred dollars was brought to a stand still by the possibility of Cleve land's election, the party who was ready to make the purchase stating to the agent that if we are to have a democratic administration he prefer red noc to have his money invested. Saturday, while the large safe belonging to McFarland & Cowdery's office was being removed to their new office over the First National Bank, the pully rope broke when the safe was near the top of the flight of stairs, precipitating it to the bottom with a rush. Fortunately, there was no person in a position to be injured by the accident, and the descent was made true to the skids on which it rested, so that no damage was done to the building. A reporter hears of a late elec tion bet which is entitled to take the cake both for originality and practi cability in this line. Two of our prominent citizens are said to have staked four sacks of the best flour upon who will be declared president, with the conditions that the loser must transport the flour to the resi dence of the winner on a wheelbarrow headed by the band. Whether or not the conditions call for music by the band we did not learn. J Report of M. E. S. S. for Sunday, i Nov. 9th, 'S4. Attendance 44, enroll ment 72. Classes 6. The youngest members are called "Gleaners." The singing is improving, and the interest I is much greater than for the' past j quarter. Of those present 13 are I communicants in some church. Every I member of the M. E. chuVch should be at least an occasional attendant, ! and their names should appear as such on the S. S. records. Zeal is good, but constant effort with it will do more. From the Sidney Plaindealer- Telegraph we clip the following pathetic bit of local intelligence - A family named Gilmore, consist ing of the father, mother and five children were passengers on No. 1 j last Saturday, en route from Oregon 1 to .butler countv, ivansas. lne motn- er was a victim of consumption and , sick when she started, but her friends 1 hoped to reach Kansas with her.

And wben the article can be had at so little expense, we are sur prised that so few have it. A build ing sufficient to hold twenty-five tons of ice can be erected at a cost not to exceed twenty-five dollars, and the n;nir PnstlI mproir a ? n- tns work, while the saving in butter i making alone, if the milk from a dozen cowg ia n3ed wonld more than pay aI1 the cost in one ,.. beid th . 7 comfort of a cool drink and a nice piece of butter on a warm day. Cer tainly no farmer can afford to be without an ice house. 2Teb. Farmer. The youth of a community are heirs to the aged ; they will succeed to the vacant places in business, in social and professional life. The com munity will then take its measure of usefulness from them. It is the duty of the men and women of this day to make the life of our youth as free from pollution as is possible ; as free from temptation to evil as is possible ; as full of incentives to good as may be ; as full of actual good work look ing towards a useful future as may be. Everv man and woman can do their share in a work of this kind, and can speak out their honest ientiments on all proper occasions, to the end that we may be a prosperous communitv. The American Publication So ciety was represented in this city by Rev. Mr. Russell, general S- S. Sup't. and financial secretary for Nebraska. Wyoming and Northern Colorado, P. O. address Ore, Nebraska. Mr. Russell was engaged in this work 16 years in Indiana, the only field oc cupied by him. He has been in this state only one month, yet in that short period he has assisted in the State Association of Baptist churches, and in district associational gather ings. There are eleven such district associations in the state, and the S. S. course will find special encourage ment in each-. There will be no change towards the international or ganization in this state, the warm 1 rapport pledged will be continued. Chas. Morse lost four head of cattle last week by some unknown cause they just laid down and died. Charlie knows of no reason why, ex cept perhaps putting on dry feed. We notice in our western exchanges several deaths in a similar way, at tributed to smut on corn stalks. Several years ago Nebraska lost a great m&ny cattle from some such cause, and a pretty effective preven tive was found in giving the stock a full feed and plenty of water in the mornings before driving them into the cornfields, thus not allowing them to gorge themselves with the very dry blades and husks of corn. The most trying time to cattle is between green feed and dry in the fall, and dry feed and green in the spring. Installation of officers of Colum bus lodge No. 143, 1. O. G.

Entertainments of some sort by the lodge will soon take place, and the friends of the order are invited to assist the committee who have the matter in charge. They will call on them for their co-operation. This quarter will have its duties and res ponsibilities. The Platte county Teachers As sociation will hold its monthly meet ing at the Lost Creek school house, Friday evening, December 5th. It is the aim of the association to hold these meetings in different parts of the county, to give all our members and friends an opportunity to attend. In this way we hope to promote the cause of education. Come one and all, listen to our papers, and take a part in our discussions. These meet lags are not only for the teachers, but for all those interested in the cause of education. Our program will be as follows. Paper How to teach Geography, by Miss M. E. Mc Gath. Select reading Mr. O'Brien. Paper The importance of the study of U. S. history in our public schools, . by Mr. Fred. Jewell. Declamation By Miss Anna Bell Smith. Paper The relation teachers should sustain to each other, by L. J. Cramer. Music. What is called hog cholera has approached as near to us on the east and southeast as Dodge and Saun ders counties, and has done very great damage in those counties, as well as Cass, Sarpy, Washington and iJurt. lne loss to tanners in saun-f der county is placed at $20u.0O0, and probably $1.1100,000 would not cover ! the loss in the counties we have ' named. The stock interest i- one of. the vital industries of Nebraska, and ' if the scourge is to visit every county : of our great commonwealth, with i such destructive fury as it has shown ' in the eastern part of the state, Platte county may well dread its coming, , and provide as well a possible against it. Change of feeding grounds, cleaner pens, access to pure water and a change of feed from corn to oats, with occasional doses of sul phur and charred corn we believe to be about as good and cheap pre ventives as we have.

Should President i Scheck make the contemplated visit ' and conclude to honor our city with j his presence, it i- to be hoped that ' Columbus will do herself ju-tice in i the reception of so distiuguhhed a guest. J Monday evening last Mr. and Mrs. Chas. A. Speice entertained a number of their friends at their ele gant and spacious residence in the eastern part of the city. The weather was very delightful, the evening fitly closing a day in which mere exist ence might well be considered a luxury. At an early hour the guests J began to arrive, and of course all felt j "at home,"' under the genial influence ! f of the host and hostess, and their ac- j complished daughter, Mrs. J. C. Post, and the two sons Gus. and Milton, who had thoughtfully provraed every comfort for the guests of the evening. At about half-past eight the Colum bus Cornet Band made their presence i known by lively airs, which added I considerably to the pleasure of the ! occasion. The gentlemen mainlv oc- i cupied themselves in innocent pas times, or pleasantly discussing the political situation, the ladies, mean while, well, as usual and always, their bright smiles and winning ways recaptivated their liege lords. At ten o'clock supper was announced, and from that till nearly twelve, the guests feasted upon the dainties and the solids of the table, after which, the guests departed, thanking their ho3t and hostess, for the enjoyment which I the occasion had furnished,and honing .that the rolling vears might bring many returns to Mr. Speice and his son Milton, of the anniversarv of their fblrth. Jos. Gross, of Madison, is in the city. Gus. G. Becher made Platte Center a visit Friday last. C. H. Matthews, of Genoa, was in the city Tuesday last. Mrs. Maude Siggins, of Dakota Ty , is in the city visiting relatives. J.E. North visited Omaha Sunday last, returning Monday evening. Henry Lubker was making a busi ness tour of Colfax county last week. V. T. Price and F. M. Sacketf, of Albion, were in the city last Saturday. H. H. Ames and family have return ed from Iowa, and will live in Co lumbus. Mrs. C. B. Chriatison is visiting her daughter Mrs. Gns. Krause of this city. Mrs. Zettie Cooper, of Pittsburg, Pa is visiting the family of W- B Backus of this city. John H. Kehoe, of Platte Center, our democratic representative elect, was in the city Monday. Mrs. W. B. Doddridge, of Evans ton, Wyoming, is visiting her father Guy. C. Barnnm, Sr., near the city. Miss Dora Herbert, of Greenfield, Iowa, is visiting in the citv, a guest in the family of Mr. John Wermuth. Gus. R. Krause had a call to the capital city of Colfax one day last week. In connection with that trip there is a little joke on Gus., but we promised him not to tell. The Misses Margie and Lavina Handy, of Chicago, are visiting in the family of Mr. C. H. Jackson of this city. The young ladies are si3ter and niece to Mrs. Jackson. Miss Carrie Austin arrived in the city last week from Montreal, Can ada, and is visiting her brother, James Austin. She has come to Nebraska to remain, and will make her home at Grand Island. Mr. Elias Jewell and wife, father and mother of the Jewell brothers of Lost Creek, have been visiting their children for the past week. Mr. J. is recently from Texas where he spent the summer in the agricultural implement business. Miss Duffy of Iowa was in the city last week seeking for an investment in a Platte county farm. Miss D. is one of Iowa's successful teachers, in which noble profession she has earned the money with which she proposes to furnish a home in Nebraska for her aged father and mother. It seems that our informant con cerning the young man who had a tooth pulled last week at McAllister's dentistry was mistaken as to one par ticular. The young man was Mr. Price who works -U Mr. Scheck's cigar factory. As near as we can get at the matter, the facts are these as our reporter gets them from Mr. Price: that he went to McAllister's, had the tooth aforetaid pulled, after which, feeling faint, McAllister gave him something to swallow which immediately put his breathing ap paratus into a disagreeable condition, lasting about three hours after Dr. Martyn was called to attend him. We give Mr. McAllister the benefit of his paragraph in the last Democrat, not as an advertisement, but because he seems to be imbued with the idea that we are intending to strike at his business, in an unwarranted manner : "The local appearing in the Jouh val of this week saying a young man was put under the influence of an anaesthetic at my office so much to his discomfiture is a preposterous falsehood as the case referred to there was not even the smell of anything given to smell of, and nothing to smell of after the tooth was extracted ex cept some aromatic spirits of ammo nia after the tooth was out for the purpose of allaying a spasmodic con dition of the thorax which the patient was subject to. Aa far as a skilled phy sician is concerned, I consider myself as successful as any physician in this state and in giving ansesthetics, I know of no superior anywhere and I do not sav it to brag either. It is expected Mr. Turner will make the proper corrections in his next week's paper. J. S. McAllister, Dentist and Physician." Mr. Price says that he is not subject to a ''spasmodic condition of the thorax." As to Mr. McAllister's claim as a "successful physician," however new it may be to this com munitv, he has a perfect right to make any claim he pleases, provided he can substantiate it whenever it may be called in question. The Jocekal has nothing to do with that, and will cer tainly congratulate Columbus upon the display of extraordinary genius in any direction by any of our citi zens. We are frank to say that we have never regarded Mr. McAllister as a "skilled physician," the kind that we spoke of as being the proper ones to administer aniesthetics. We give this as our opinion, and it was at the practice of giving these medicines without all due precautions that we wished to guard our readers against ; onlv that, and "nothing more."'

Keator, editor of FL Wayne, Ind., Gazette, writes: "For the past five years have always used Dr. King's New Discovery ,for coughs of,most severe character, as well 3 for those of a milder type.

Mr. Obe Terwilliger was elected supervisor in Granviile Township. Mr. Thomas K. Ottis re-elected treasurer, and Ira Briggle town clerk. Election passed off with if usual quietness; in this place very little scratching or plastering done; al! parties seemed to want to do all possible for the whole ticket.
