Charley Martin, recently a cook
in one of our hotels here, but who
had got into the bad habit of being
drunk about all of the time, was
found late one evening in a smoke
house in the rear of 11th street, with
a rousing fire, partly in the stove,
and partly outside of it. A transpor
tation fund waB raised for him and a
policeman saw him off on a train.
Columbus desires to share her benefits
with some of her neighbors.
One of our exchanges says : It's
amusing when soliciting, to hear a
man say, "it doesn't pay to advertise."
Why does this man put out a sign ?
That's advertising. Why does he ob
struct the pavement in front of his
store with samples of the goods he
sells ? That is advertising too. Why
does he daub the head of a mackerel
barrel or dry goods box with the
words : " AIl oUr gOods chEep," and
stick it up in a keg of beans or a pile
of calico in his store?"
Jno. and Jno. H. Wurdemann
delivered some fat cattle here Friday
that were good ones. They bad been
contracted for a month ago, the best
of tbem at five cents a pound, making
a handsome price to the seller, on
Friday's market. Jno. H. had 53
head that averaged 1340 lbs., and
brought $3453.92. John's 26 realized
him $1563. Henry Carrig on Monday
of last week delivered 50 head of fat
steers on contract at $60 each, and
thus Nebraska tipa the scales.
We desire to emphatically say to
the public now that the Democrat has
the largest circulation of any paper
published in Platte county, having
nearly one hundred more subscribers
than the Columbus Journal. The
latter paper has been trying to lay
claims to that distinction long enough.
The subscription list of this paper is
free for the inspection of our adver
tisers. The above appeared in the Demo
crat of April 17tb,aud must have been
written by some "smart AIek" who
didn't know what be was saying. The
Journal has decidedly the largest
circulation of any paper published in
the county, and in fact is the only
newspaper wholly printed in the
county.
An alarm of fire was given from
the bells yesterday morning at a quar
ter to two, but- there wasn't much
rousing done. A light from the
northeast showed that something
pretty well calculated to make a torch
was on fire, but as there seemed no
danger of its spreading, and a good
prospect that the threatening rain
would act as an effectual extinguisher,
no further concern was given it. We
are informed that Fred. Gottschalk's
small smoke-house which stood about
half way between his dwelling and
barn, and a few rods to the south,
was burned down, with its contents,
which were not very valuable. A
piece of meat fell down into the fire
causing more of a blaze than was
necessary for merely smoking the
meat.
W. H. Randall, one of the several
busy buyers of stock in Columbus,
calls our attention to the following
most extensive shipment ever run
from Columbus, forwarded last Mon
day, two trains of eighteen cars each :
8 cars fat cattle belonging to Becker
6 Welch ; 3 cars to Becker & Randall ;
7 cars to W. H. Randall ; 2 cars to1
Moran Bros ; 1 car to Henry Welch ;
4 cars to John Haney ; 2 cars to Jos.
Henggler; 2 cars to Jno. Dinneen ;
3 cars to Thos. Lynch; 2 to Thos.
Gleason, 2 to Jno. Wiggins, and 2 cars
of sheep to Preston & Wells. The
run to Lincoln 74 miles was made in
three hours. This is the second grand
combination run for the B. & M. this
spring, which surely is no small
victory for the Company's represen
tative at this place, L. A. Clark.

Nearly Fatal.
The Genoa Enterprise of the 16th
contains accounts of accidents to two
well-known citizens of Platte county,
Geo. S. Truman and Wm. Walton.
The former was injured while fight
ing a prairie fire that did considerable
destruction to property north of
Genoa. All who know these gentle
men will deeply sympathise with
them:
"Mr. Geo. S. Truman left home and
went upon the bluff to help fight fire,
upon arriving upon the ground he
found that the fire was making to
ward his son J. Truman's place and
so be started to help save the bouse.
Upon arriving at the house be found
no one at home, the house locked, and
the fire 60 close that he could not
escape, so ne went arouna upon tne
opposite side of the house from the
wind and awaited bis fate. The fire
was soon upon him and the wind
blew bo fiercely that the flames came
around to where he was standing
from both ways, and as it proved, he
was just at the point where the beat
was most intense, and he was severe
ly burned about the face and hands,
the skin of hid hands being burned off
at the wrists and slipped down over
his hand like a glove turned down
wrong side out. His clothing con
sisted of heavy woolen under-clothing,
a fact to which be owes bis life,
over which a linen shirt and then a
suit of woolen material, he also bad
on a pair of overalls. The overalls
were burned up entirely as no trace
of them could be found and all that
was left of the suit was the waist
band of the pants to which was bang
ing a few shredB. The linen and
woolen garments not burning as read
ily as cotton were burned full of
boles, but the fire did not get suffi
cient headway to consume them until
the danger was over, and then Mr.
Truman succeeded in extinguishing
it. Even after being burned so se
verely the sufferer extinguished the
fire that was threatening the house,
thereby saving it, before seeking his
home. Medical aid was soon sum
moned and although suffering intense
ly be is said to be slowly recovering.'
"On Tuesday, while loading a car
of hogs for shipment, Mr. W. E. Wal
ton received a severe blow on the
side of the neck by a scantling, which
knocked him senseless to the ground.
He was taken into his office by B. P.
Yeakum where he partially recovered
from the shock so as to be able to
walk to the Doctor's office but at the
same time be could not be made to
understand what had happened.
Through medical aid and careful
nursing he soon began to show signs
of recovery but he did not regain bis
senses nntil late at night, it will be
some time ere he fully recovers. The
same blow a little higher or a little
farther around toward the back of the
neck would undonbtedly have caused
instant death."

Dr. Armstrong's daughter, a young

needed the better it is. Hence I sup
pose many prefer Homeopathy with

Small grain is nearly all sowed and
some potatoes planted which by the
way reminds the writer of the an

neighbor said : "Pat, you are plant

ed any potatoes in the moon at all, at
all. I always plant them in the
ground and it is plenty of good ones
you know I raise."
The annual meeting of school dis
trict 31 was but thinly attended and
so was the town meeting of Joliet
township. When will our lawmakers
learn to fix times so as to suit all?
With our late spring and pressing
work it was this year almost impos
sible for farmers to attend these meet
ings. Why could they not be held in
winter, when everybody has time, and
would really enjoy meeting with
neighbors and discuss matters leis
urely and thoroughly ? An unfit time
for meeting is one of the many de
fects of our township law. Was it
framed to kill itself? X. Y. Z.
Mrs. S. H. Tucker, of Creston,
has instituted, with the help of the
young folks, a society which will
doubtless be of lasting benefit to all
concerned. Meetings are to be held
Saturday afternoons, and the pro
gram will be varied each week. An
organization of this kind in every
thickly settled neighborhood would
be a means of social enjoyment ap
preciated by the young people and
parents too, as not only a source of
delight, but of mental profit likewise.
It will help to build up all that is
good, at the same time furnishing
amusement.

Mr. Hugh Smith in company with
Elder Wright and family started for
Gordon, Sioux county, Neb., on the
20th.
Rev. J. W. Jennings is in Sioux
county prospecting for a timber claim,
as, under the present timber clainh
law a person is obliged to swear they
person is oongea
have been on the land.
Mr. E. Brooks, S. J. Howard and
L. S. Dorman have returned from
their prospecting trip to Sioux Co.
They found plenty of government
land, some good, some poor. After
crossing a sea of sand, or what might
well be termed the American Desert,
90 miles in width with nothing in
sight but sand hills, varying from 10
to 300 feet in height, they came sud
denly into a very productive country
with a beautiful valloy. In this val
ley the stock grazes the year round,
there is plenty of good pine and ash
timber, with two aw mills in good
running order and a little farther to
the north there is plenty of stone.
The bluff land is covered with good
grass, and there is considerable lime
stone in the bluffs. They report at
the present a little scare for fear of an
outbreak of the Indians, there being
three agencies within forty miles of
here, containing in all 2,100 Indians,
but there U estimated to be on an
average seventy claims entered daily
in Sioux county. S. J. Howard and
his mother Mrs. C. E. Howard, each
took a homestead in section 21, range
47, township 27, within eight miles of
good timber. Mr. Dorman, having
the misfortune to have his horse tire
out, he went as far as Valentine on
the cars; there he started on foot
walking 280 miles before again re
turning to Valentine. N.

Can any one bring us a case of Kid
ney or Liver Complaint that Electric
Bitters will not speedily cure? We
say they can not, as thousands of
cases already permanently cured and
who are daily recommending Electric
Bitters, will prove. Bright's Disease,
Diabetes, Weak Back, or any urinary
complaint quickly cured. They pur
ify the blood, regulate the bowels,
and act directly on the diseased parts.
