The Prairie Waif, with Buffalo
Bill, Miss Lydia Denier, Jule Keen,
a band of Pawnee Indians, and a

two fine houses to manager Miller
yesterday as a Thanksgivingoffering.
Buffalo Bill's athletic figure was the
admiration of the audience, and Jule

vulsed the bouse with laughter.

Notwithstanding such quantities

James Baker in Monroe on Thursday
eve, Feb. 4tb, to witness the marriage
of his daughter Stella to Mr. Joseph
Hollingshead. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. Mr. Eapling of
Genoa, after which a bountiful repast
was served. The bride was tastefully
attired, and the recipient of many
useful and valuable presents. Taken
all in all the entertainment was such
as reflected credit on both host and
hostess, and one long to be remem
bered by the fuests.
The committee on fire, consist
ing of councilmen Lockner, North
and Rickly, have been designated to
locate the site for engine house, &c,
which they will immediately proceed
to do. Several important questions
will now come np, among them
whether the works shall be owned by
the city, or whether by a company,
and service paid by the city, and
whether the system shall be by direct
pressure only, or include a stand
pipe. The columns of the Journal
are open for the discussion of these,
as of all other questions of public in
terest. Our opinion is that the city
should own and operate the works,
and that the stand pipe (while con
siderable expense at first) will more
than pay its way, earing its cost right
along. While there may be a few
men who would not have voted for
the bond proposition bad it been sub
mitted in this way only, we are satis
fied that many more would have
favored it, had it been thus sub
mitted. As to the stand pipe, we
think everything is in its favor, where
there is not constant work for an
engine.

--Columbus business men have
never yet got together for the purpose
of organizing and building up her
road system going out into the coun
try tributary. It is now very im
portant to her interests that this
should be done, and the sooner the
better. Delays are always dangerous.
Every road going out from the city
should be made the best possible in
every particular, a& to grading, ditch
ing, culverta and bridges. The city
has lost a great deal heretofore by
reason of lack of somo of these good
thiuga and it is now high time that
her enterprising business men unite
in a solid phalanx to push this matter
to ita utmost limit. As we have
heretofore remarked, in substance,
there ia only one proper way to run a
town which is to make every thing
count towards the general welfare;
let enterprise, public and private, be
the watchword, and let us make the
most out of our circumstances.

There seems to be something wrong
with the report in regard to theBe
men having been drowned in the
Niobrara, Jan. 24th, while crossing on
the ice. The following was received
last week by the postmaster of this
city, and speaks for itself:
Niobrara, Fkb. 2, '86.
Sib : I see by the Omaha Republi
can that H. J. Neisius and L. R. Wen
rich were drowned at this place. This
must bo a mistake, as we have not
heard of any such case. These two
persons left my hotel after dinner
January 24th, and crossed the river
safely, and were seen O. K. on the
Dakota side. They were in good
health and spirits, and the river was
perfectly safe at the time, the ice being
twenty inches thick.
Very truly yours,
A. L. Towlk,
Proprietor Hubbard House.
Last week, we bad barely space to
record the vote on water bonds, the
result of which was known just as we
went to prees. While Iho majority
was not no great as it might have
been, it is yet enough to secure the
works, and we think that if the city
gets the worth of her monoy, which
she will undoubtedly do, it will be
one of the best investments she could
possibly make. While everything
should be first-class, the Journal is
of opinion that the mains snould be
extended to the utmost limit allowed
by the amount of funds, so that as
many as possible can have the benefit
of security against loss by fire.

We clip the following from the
Jacksonville (Florida) Times:
Miss Firmin and Mr. John Jack
come to us with the highest endorse
ment which can be obtained in this
country, viz: the cordial approval of
that greatest of American dramatic
critics, Mr. William Winter. They
come, too, from a successful tour of
the principal English-speaking colo
nies of Europe and the east. They
have received but little heralding, the
management deferring all mention of
their engagement here till they were
already in the city. For this reason
it was pleasant last night to meet so
large an andience and doubly agreea
ble to see so admirable a performance.
Miss Annie Firmin is the original
"Mercy Merricy," of Wilkie Collins'
great play of the "New Magdalen."
The creation is one of great power
and beauty a character that, in her
person and at her hands, ia one of tho
grandest and noblest types of Chris
tian civilization. It is a new Great
Renunciation.
Miss Firmin is a woman of admira
ble presence and accomplishments.
She possesses what, lamentally in
deed, many actresses lack, intelligence
and culture possessions that give her
the power of broadly, justly and nice
ly interpreting a fine and noble char
acter. Not in her actions, nor in her
voice only, but in her expressive face
and eyes, the great soul of "Mercy
Merricy" manifests itself with warm
genuineness of reality.

Tho dailies bring word from Coun
cil Bluffs of the death there on Satur
day of Alex. Graber, who about two
months ago left this city. He will
be remembered here as the flag-man
at the railroad crossing on Olive
street Friday af teruoon he got some
morphine at a drug store on the un
derstanding that ho wanted it for
rheumatism. He ate bis supper as
usual at his hotel, and retired about
10 o'clock. He was not seen until
about noon Saturday, when the cham
bermaid called the attention of the
landlord, when the door was forced
open and he was found lying on the
bed, unconscious and dying.
Remedies were administered, but
all to no purpose. Death came in a
short time. The coroner's jury found
a verdict in accordance with the facts
as stated above, without giving opin
ion as to suicidal intent. Mr. Graber
was about 65 years old, one of the
pioneers of Iowa, a veteran of the
Mexican war, and for many years an
employe of the U. P. Co.
