According to call, a goodly num ber of ladies and gentlemen met at the High School room Saturday evening for the purpose of organizing a literary association. Hon. Chas. A. Speire was called to the chair, and Chas. Briudley, Esq., selected as tem porary secretary. Remarks concern ing the benefits of such an association and suggestions as to methods were made by the chairman, by Prof. Cra mer, W. A. McAllister, F. A. Clark, John Eusden, Herbert Lawrence and M. K. Turner. On motion of Mc Allister, a committee consisting of M. K. Turner, Miss Martin, Prof. L. J. Cramer, Mrs. W. B. Backus and Carl Kramer was appointed upon constitution and by-laws, to report at the next meeting. The committee were also instructed to assign parts for the meeting next Saturday even ing, which is to be at the same hour and place. On behalf of the com mittee, a special, argent invitation is hereby extended to all who desire to become members of the association, to be present next evening and take part in shaping the organic law of the same. There is no question but the city needs just such a society as this may be made, aud its meetings ought to be well attended. A New Baala Capt. Wadsworth reoently pur chased the two-story brick building adjoining the Columbus State Bank on the north, and has thoroughly overhauled it and lowered the floor of the first story to a level with the sidewalk, thus making a higher ceiling, and a much handsomer room. The Capt. is now east purchasing a full line of fresh groceries, with which the Wadsworths will open up business in a few days. Crockery and glassware will also be specialties of the business. Many of our citizens will remem ber that the Captain was formerly engaged here in a like business, and now returns to his first love, so to speak, "to grow up with the country." The Captain is well known as a shrewd business man and those who deal with tho Wadsworths can expect to reap the advantage of bis knowl edge and tact in purchasing the best of goods at the most reasonable rates. John U. Loseke, living near Shell Creek, was fearfully mangled Tuesday la9t. While using a two horse bay rake in his meadow, the neck yoke, came off, frightening the team which ran away.

Rowe and her young daughter started for Maine one day last week, on a visit. Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Callaway, of Bellwood, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Hill, of Missouri, were in the city Saturday. Some Sasrfrestlea. The hog disease has struck up Shell Creek, and several farmers have lost considerable numbers. We learn, too. that Gay Barnum, on the Loop has lost 500 worth. When the scourge strikes it seems impossible to do much to save the afflicted hogs, but the Journal believes that some thing can be done by way of pre vention, and the following: may be commended as valuable: change of pens, or cleansing and disinfecting of old pens for this purpose is recom mended, carbolic acid and chloride of lime ; a box of concentrated lye to a barrel of slop ; free use of sulphur, salt and wood ashes; corn on the ear, charred. Mr. J. N. Taylor, who has quite an extensive hog ranche, has kept the following mixtore where his hogs have had free access to it, and he says they use it of ton : 1 peck wood ashes (can be had at the bakeries), 4 lbs. salt, 1 lb. black antimony, 1 lb. copperas, 1 lb. sulphur, K lb- saltpeter. The Joubnal has time and again, called attention to this scourge, and admonished farmers of Platte to look out for it. Eastern Nebraska was scourged last year, losing hundred of thousands of dollars worth of hogs; Colfax county is now undergoing what hap pened last year to Dodge, Douglas, Burt, Washington, Cass and other counties. We cannot hope to escape, but we may possibly mitigate the stroke. Caarck Ceaveatloa. The Episcopal convocation will be convened (D. V.) on the evening of Sept. 23, having been postponed one week.

D., rector of Grace Parish of the Episcopal church in this city, baa tendered bis resignation to the vestry, to take effect Nov. 1, next, or sooner, if a clergyman is secured for this pastor ate. The increasing infirmities of age, and the multiplied cares of the rectory have led our venerable Father to re tire from the activities of parish priest. The servants of God who have labored so long in word and doc trine as has our rector, deserve and will receive the kindest sympathy and loving remembrance of the devoted children of the church, and the bless ings pronounced by the reverend clergy are renewed in the answers to earnest supplications and invocations. The sincerity and piety of Father Goodale are apparent to all , the ear nestness and fidelity of his labors are sealed to bis own glorious reward, and the talents he has devoted to the cause of Christ have been blessed of God to the good of many souls. H. The above reward will be paid for the arrest and conviction of the per son or persons who set fire to the school-house in Dist. 28, Stearns pre cinct, July 25th, 1885.
