The Coaalaff mimical Treat.
Tho extremely liberal manner in
which the press of the country has
lavished praise upon tho McGibeny
Family indicates, beyond doubt, that
the entertainments presented are far
beyond the ordinary. The, leading
Boston and Cleveland paper report
them in colomn lengths and exhaust
the adjectives of the English language
in trying to describe the furore crea
ted, and the merits of the perform
ance. The mother is a refined aud
cultivated lady, and the father has
Bpent bis lifetime in teaching vocal
and instrumental music. It is not
strange that the children should be
musical, and their talents in this di
rection being very remarkable and
cultivated thoroughly from infancy
in what is said to be one of the most
harmonious and lovely family circles
in the world, ehould shine with
dazzling light upon the platform, and
lead the immense audiences which
everywhere have greeted the family,
to the highest pitch of enthusiasm.
They will appear at the Opera House
on Monday evening, Oct. 5th, under
the auspices of the Congregational
church. They have a full band, a
full orchestra, a fall chorus, and ten
soloists, and are undoubtedly the
greatest musical family in the world,
Don't fail to hear them. Admission
50 cents, children 25 cents. Reserved
seats 75 cents. Tickets, now on sale
at Dowty & Chinn's drug-store.
The case of the State against
Robt. Lewis, charged with closing up
a road, attracted some attention last
week, before Justice Rickly. It
6eems that Mr. Lewis has given roads
pretty well around his farm, and con
cluded he would try the law npon a
passage-way diagonally across one
corner of it ; McAllister Bros, his at
torneys, alleged that the road had
never been laid out as a public road,
aever naa been dedicated as sucn,
J.
ired on the part of the public, by
occupancy. We didn't inquire into
the intricacies of the case, but sup
pose it has been a neighborly, friendly
legal argument all around to deter
mine legal rights, because, while the
decision of the Justice was against
Mr. Lewis, he declares that he will
pay the fine himself rather than issue
a mittimus.
Mrs. Kittnehr of Schuyler tried
to hasten her kitchen fire with kero
sene poured from a can. She and her
little child were burned from head to
foot, the flesh dropping off in places.
The child died the next morning, and
the woman's recovery is doubtful.
Her husband, who succeeded in ex
tinguishing the flames, is terribly
burned, and his hands will probably
have to be amputated. The Herald
says that oil cans have been banished
from the kitchens of Schuyler, but it
is too much to hope that the Kittnebrs
will be the last victims of the careless
use of kerosene.
"Guilty Without Crime" was pre
sented Monday night at the Opera
House by Craig's Comedy Co. We
had not the pleasure of being present,
but everybody there was delighted,

lent, all good performers. Going to
press Tuesday evenings we cannot
say anything of the "Danites" ren
dered last .evening. "Pink Domi
noes" will be given this evening, and
"Camille" tomorrow evening. The
Company deserve to be well patron -ized
by the public.
Charles Lindey was arrested here
Friday, charged with having burned
the buildings of Applegarth Bros, in
Boone co. four years ago last 4th. of
July. At. St Edward he got away
from the offieers by jumping from
the window of the water closet while
the train was in motion. A passen
ger on the platform noticed a man
overboard, and speaking of it, the
officers dicovered the absence of their
prisoner. The train was stopped and
the prisoner recaptured.

If the millenium is not in sight, it
is a fact that the world is growing
better. This is indicated in many
ways, now and again, bnt the very
.latest straw of evidence toward that
fact is the very considerate conduct
of a sneak thief on Saturday night at
G. W. Stevens's barn. He stole a
set of double harness, excepting a
pair of new lines and one snap on the
same.

The CaaTacatiea.
The Convocation recently held in
Grace Church (Episcopal) in this
city, was a grand success. There were
fifteen clergy in attendance. The Rt.
Rev. Bishop of Nebraska presided dur
ing the entire convocation. Of the pa
pers read, tliA;tf-the Rev. M. F. Ca
rey Rector or ot Mary's, Nebraska
City, and the one by the Rev. John
Williams, Rector St. Barnabas, Oma
ha, were very excellent. The sermon
delivered by the Rev. C. B. Brewster,
Rector Groach church, Baltimore,
was considered one of great merit, and
so highly prized that by vote of the
convocation, Mr. Brewster was re
quested to furnish the manuscript for
publication in the diocesan paper.
The paper read by the Rev. Mr.
Pearson was a plain, outspoken state
ment of facts on the subject of lav
E reaching, and was heartily approved
y the clergy present. A plan was
set on foot to arrange a uniform
scheme of S. S. instruction in the
diocese. Subjects, and the usual
number of writers and speakers were
announced for the next convocation
to be held in the South Platte early
in 1886.
The bishop made a good impression
during his stay here, and with re
newed acquaintance much good will
result from the ties of pastor and
people; and the bishop with the
hearty co-operation of the clergy
under his immediate oversight, can
accomplish much good.

can be commenced ; also about state

provements, lp

Louis Heidner has a barn, granary

useful improvement.
A horse died the other day in
George Hodel's corn-field. Thel
owner of the horse is unknown.
O. D. Butler has set out a fine lot
of apple trees, and numerous other
varieties; he also has a grove of
catalpas.
I learn that Mr. C. J. Moore is
losing his hogs by hog cholera, that
fatal disease that is killing, hogs in
such large numbers with such start
ling rapidity. Farmers should take
every precaution against this terrible
disease at once, if there is any pre
caution which could be taken. Some
say to feed hogs that are sick with
hogs that havo died of the disease and
it will cure them ; others say that it
will not. As I have not bad any ex
perience, I cannot speak for myself.
If any who may read this paragraph
know of any preventive I would be
glad to bear of it through the columns
of the Journal.
Last spring, George Hodel put out
a hundred apple, a hundred and fifty
pear trees and eighteen hundred
grape vines, which promise in time
to become quite a vineyard, for you
all remember the old adage, "Tall
oaks from little acorns grow." which
is a very instructive and truthful one.
Mr. Hodel only came to Nebraska
about a year ago ; he is a very en
terprising farmer. He has built quite
a number of buildings and set out a
great deal of small fruit since he
came, which adds to the general look
and worth of his place. All farmers
with the means should follow his
example. He also has quite a herd
of cattle, an indispensable class of
stock for a Nebraska farm.
