R. will run an ex cursion on JULY 4tth, From Columbus and intermediate points to Norfolk, giving citizens of Tlatte County an opportunity to hear SENATOR VAN WYCK, AND WITNESS THE BEST CELEBRA- tion in Northern Nebraska. EVERYBODY INVITED TO C03IE. It By Order of Committee. Rev. E. J. Robinson of the M. E. church, held a series of five meetings on Grand Prairie recently. Ten persons were baptized, and a class of twenty-two organized. Mr. R. speaks in very high praise of the people that he met. The Herald claims for Platts- mouth the largest canning institution in the state some seventy-five to one hundred hands being required in the busy season. It is such establish ments that will greatly add to the prosperity of Nebraska. Mrs. Byron Millett of Denver has entered a criminal complaint against him, also a suit for divorce. The latter asks for $10,000 alimony, so we see by the Denver Tribune-Jlepubli-can of June 2Gtb, which gives more than a column of particulars. Thomas Thomazin of Postville, and one of the old settlers of Platte county is extra well pleased with the crops this year ; be has eighty acres of small grain and the same of corn, which ho says are good, good. Mr. Thomazin has very great faith in Nebraska. The Columbus hose team of eighteen men are practicing nearly every evening now, preparing them selves for the tournament at North Bend on the Fourth. They have been making some quick "runs" and ought to come home with some of the prizes to be awarded. Chas. Beringer, John Seipp, and J. A. Turner express themselves as nnder obligations to attaches of tbe State Journal office for courtesies ex tended during a tour of inspection through that establishment while at Lincoln last week. "Will" Bennett, an old-time Ohio acquaintance, acted as pilot. A correspondent of the Madison Chronicle and the editor of tbe Humphrey Independent are exchang ing some classical sentences about hogs, hog buyers, &c. "Observer" seems to be a little ahead, on the last inning, but wc are in duty bound to believe that the Independent will win tho game. The hall at Lincoln built for the use of the Sxngerbund was 240x60 feet, and had a seating capacity of 3, 000. We are told that up to Friday night the expenses reached $10,000 and tbe receipts $13,000. Our citi zens visiting Lincoln speak in high terms of praise of the committees of the Bund and of the Lincoln people generally. Ex-Mayor Macfarland, of Colum bus, was in town last week and called on his honor, Judge Kelly. While conversing pleasantly, Mayor Mac farland casually picked up the Judge's office keys, which were lying on the table, and when he left absentminded ly put the keys in his pocket and car ried them off to Columbus. If ydu see a wild-eyed persou crawling in and out of the back window of tbe county judge's office, don't shoot him for a burglar. It's the Judge's new style of opening his office. Madison Chronicle. Sec the advertisement of tbe cele bration of the Fourth, at Norfolk. Gen. Chas. II. Van Wyck, United States Senator, has consented to make the address of the occasion, and as be has become somewhat noted for "having something to say and saying it" in good round English, those who go to Norfolk may expect a treat in tbe speech. Besides the speech, there are a number of other attractions for the day. Added to all, it will give our citizens an excellent opportunity to revive pleasant recollections of early times and old friends. Farmers, does it catch you ? The light steel frame McCormick self binder, and the light, steel-frame D. M. Osborn self-binder. We wonld suggest that no self-binder Is a suc cess which has the gearing in front, and if tho horse could speak he wonld say "Amen." We suppose that it would make no difference to the horse with the galled neck whether they be called light, steel-frame, or by tbe old name "horse-killers." To those in need of a self-binder we would suggest the Deering which has no weight on the horse's neck, is easy to draw, is simple, strong and durable, and the best and cheapest machine in the world the best is always the cheapest. Krause, Lubker & Co., Agents. Nebraska is certainly the very perfection of foundation for farm work no stones, no stumps, usually no clods, a perfect, pulverised seed bed, and so it happens that here a man or boy can do a full quota of work with tbe least amount of impediment. The cultivation of forty acres of corn by one team managed by a boy is a common thing for Nebraska. Un doubtedly this is the place for an enterprising boy or girl either, be cause such are respected for .their real worth and merits and not or what their parents may be. We notice every once in a while that tb,e enterprising boys are getting "to the front." The Cedar Rapids Era speaks of Grant Balcom of Timber Creek, a boy, planting 126 acres of corn this spring with a hand planter and doing it in good shape. - The Sceagerfeat. The first day of the Saengerfest at Lincoln, passed with most gratifying success, and at the evening concert the first surprise was given by the Columbus Mamnerchor. In their rendering of "Der Lethetrunk vom Rhiene" by Beschnitt, they fioon en listed tbe close attention of the vast audience, and were greeted with con tinuous applause until they appeared again. In their second selection they gave a medley, "Schnurrpfeifereien" by Peuschel, which was not surpassed during tbe evening. They fairly won the honors of the reception concert. The Omaha Germania suffered by confusion in the hall during their singing. They did well however and were loudly applauded, which they richly deserved for some very fine singing. Tbe Topeka Arions and tbe St. Joseph Msennerchor both did finely and it was difficult to tell which was the better. In the concert of Wednesday even ing the Columbus Msennerchor were not assigned a part. Thursday evening they had an assignment and fairly captured the audience in "Auf der Aim," by Beer, and entranced them with F. Abt's "Ave Maria." Tbe Sasngerfest was grand success in every particular. The numbers in attendance were immense, filling tbe large hall, leaving no standing room on the inside and crowding the side walks outside the hall with people anxious to catch the sweet strains of music. Tbe different .societies pres ent fully sustained their former repu tations. Especially were tbe lady singers Mrs. E. L. Baker, Miss Howe, and Mrs. Weber appreciated. At home here we all know what the Msennerchor is, and what they can do. Nine years under able leadership has given them rare opportunities for practice, and this, their third triumph in the Bund, shows that they have taken advantage of their opportuni ties. We are therefore prepared to find others appreciating the worth of this organization. The StateoirnaZ Topics man, who says what he means, and in most things meets public ap proval has this to say : "These Topics desire to go on rec ord with the great majority of the attendance at tbe grand concerts of the Saengerbund, and to that end they award tbe palm in singing to the Co lumbus Msennerchor, under the lead ership of Mr. Pohl. Their voices were naturally very fine, and their training had not been of the gymnas tic order. They attempted no diffi cult feats, but poured out in perfect time a wave of melody that filled tho immense hall. The "Ave Maria," by the quintette, was a perfect gem. Every appearance of the Columbus society was a signal for a thundering greeting, and when they concluded the applause made the building quiver. They touched the popular heart as no others did, and it was due to a happy combination of strength, sweetness and simplicity. There is much to be unlearned in music." D. Anderson spent three days last week in Denver. He was per fectly amazed at the rapid growth and progress of that magic city of the plains, upon tbe site of which he camped many nights and days, before tbe erection of the first building. In driving through the city, and around the suburbs tbe grandeur and mag nificence of the home residences and business blocks appeared like a dream when compared to the long twenty five years ago. He attended a meet ing of the Pioneers' Association in company with some old friends, and found Jo. Bates, the present mayor, occupying the chair, Governor Eaton, ex-Governor Evans, Senator Tabor (tbe millionaire) and old Col. Cbiv ington of the Sand Creek Indian mas sacre fame, were all present, besides a score of old '59'rs whom he had not met belore for more than twenty-two years. Mr. A. also spent two days in Cheyenne visiting his daughter and family, Mrs. Lightfoot. and returns to Columbus well rested And refreshed by his western trip. Quite a number of Columbus peo ple besides the members of tbe Msen nerchor and Band were in attendance at the Sengerfest at Lincoln last week, among whom were Mr. and Mrs. I. GInck, Mr. and Mrs. Hermau Oebl rich, Mr. and Mrs. M. H. White, Mrs. J. E. North, Mrs. J. R. Meagher, Mr. and 'Mrs. Win. Lamb and daughter Annie, Mcs. Frank Gores and chil dren, Mrs. E. D.

Edward Shepherd, of Harrisburg, 111., says : "Having received so much benefit from Electric Bitters, I feel it my duty to let suffering humanity know it. Have had a running sore on my leg for eight years ; my doc tors told me I would have to have tbe bone scraped or leg amputated. I used, instead, three bottles of Electric Bitters and seven boxes Buckleo's Arnica Salve, and my leg is now sound and well." Electric Bitters are sold at fifty cents a bottle, and Bucklen's Aruica Salve at 25c. per box by Dowty & Cbinn. 5 la the WerM.

R Rossiter got bis finger split by a blow from tbe ball on tbe 20th. The B'hoys disposed of a number of eggs of an "unsavory" age on Fri day evening. Be sure you're right, boys, then go ahead. George N. Hopkins has been ap pointed Justice or the Peace, to fill the vacancy made by tbe resignation of A. J. Williams, Esq. Crops are looking well in this neighborhood ; most of the corn has been cultivated. The small grain is much better than it was last year at this time. Humphrey should be proud of her Base Ball Club, for a more gentle manly or better behaved company of young men it has never been our fortune to meet; our people of this town, one and all, speak very highly of them, and will be happy to see them often amongst us. We learn that Eugene Macken came near meeting with a serious accident one day last week. His team ran away while cnltivating corn and dragged him some distance, when for tunately, Mr. Michael Cronin rushed to the head of the team and stopped them at considerable risk, and some slight injury to himself. The base ball contest between Platte Center aud Humphrey resulted in a victory for Platte Center. We are not surprised at tbe success of the Platte Center boys, as tbe young ladies we have no old ones turned out en mas9 to encourage the hoys by their presence. He would be a "Laggard in love and a coward in war," who would not excel on such an occasion. Moral for the benefit of Humphrey "go thou and do like wise." There will be another game played between Humphrey and Platte Center on next Saturday the 27th. Tbe debate did not come off. The attraction on the base ball grounds was apparently of more importance than the question to be discussed. One of tbe gentlemen who was to take a prominent part in the debate in formed us that as they had no wish to talk for their own edification alone, and, as it was impossible to get tbe folks away from tbe ball players, they had decided to postpone it until September, when there would be no base ball to interfere, and tbe people might be persuaded to listen. He concluded by saying that he thought the country would hardly go to utter smash in tho intermediate time, and we agreed with him, but told him if there was any damage we would let him know of it through tbe columns of the Journal. S. D. Cory informs us that a serious and probably fatal accident occurred about fifteen miles up tbe creek at Mr. Pat. Gallagher's place on tbe IStb. Mr. Gallagher has a Polander working for him who was cultivating corn, and at noon when returning to tbe house undertook to ride on the walking cultivator. The team took fright and ran away throwing the man and dragging him several rods. He was taken up insensible and car ried to the house by Mr. Gallagher and Mr. Cory, and medical assistance sent for to Newman's Grove, that being the nearest poiut from which it could be obtained. Mr. Cory informs us that the man's bead and shoulders were mangled in a terrible manner aud that everything possible for the alleviation of his suffering was done by Mr. Gallagher and his estimable lady. T. Ht. Edwards. M. J. Thompson has so improved that he is able to walk around. S. J. Howard eold toE. Welcor five head of hogs that averaged 4C5 lb?. ; two of the number weighed 1090 lbs.

Mr. E. Itrooks and Mr. Dull went to Valentine last week and took homesteads in Dawes county. Mr. Brooks and L. S. Dorman expect to go to Dawes county on their claims about the 1st of July. Wm. McCutchen bad the misfor tune to get his thumb caught in a corn shelter which tore the flesh loose from tbe bone. Dr. Clark sewed up the wouud and is in hope it will grow on without being amputated. A large company gathered at the residence of Hon. 6. K. Smith, Mon day evening by invitation of bis wife, it being tbe occasion of bis 38th birth day anniversary. Tbe large and well lighted rooms were filled with guests who enjoyed a very pleasaut evening and departed to their several homes at a late hour. About 60 persons gathered at tbe residence of Mrs. C. E. Howard on tbe 18th ; after passing a very pleasant evening the company broke up at a late hour, expressing their many re grets that they must say good-bye, but all wishing Mrs. Howard and sons prosperity and happiness in their new home, as they expect to start for Dawes county on the 23d. The case of the State of Nebraska vs. Wm. Vizzard, was called on the 22d at p. m., the prosecuting witness for tbe State, M. J.
