Sunday week Miss Kibler, daugh ter of G. W., of Creston, had an arm broke at the wrist by a fall from a horse. She walked home, got supper, drew water from a deep well, and then- weut to Leigh, quite a distance, to have the arm set, refusing to take au at.se-thetic. There is a girl wor thy a hero. Nebraska may well be proud of such. Mrs. Mary Lipps of Omaha, with her three small children, were taken from the U. P. depot Monday to the Sistors Hospital. Mrs. L. took sud denly sick with spasms. She was on her way to Denver to see a sister ; a small purse was raised for her. It was a very pitiable eight to see the helpless, sick, and destitute mother, and the dependent little children. E. B. Hall has made an agree ment with several men in this city and Genoa to use the Miller Tobacco Taste Destroyer for 30 days, and if, at the end of that time, the ta6te for tobacco has not been destroyed in them, he charges nothing ; if it has been, they agree to pay him $5 each.

On motion of North the treasurer was requested to report 'to Council ou which lots special sidewalk assessments have been paid, aud amount on eaeh lot. Communications were read from Spitzer & Co. to Clerk and Treasurer stating that they did not intend to pay the accrued interest on the water bonds ; a resolution offered by North was adopted to the effect that the bonds must be taken on the terms agreed upon by N. W. Harris & Co., or reterned at once. The Judiciary Committee submit ted the following report, and also report of City Attorney. To the Judiciary Committee: The City Attorney would very respect fully report that within one half mile of the corporate limits of the city of Colum bus the city council can confer jurisdic tion upon the mayor for any legitimate purposes, except for taxation, and fur ther, the statute provides that the Po lice Judge shall have exclusive jurisdic tion of all offences against the ordinances of the city. And I believe that an or dinance can be passed and enforced, pro hibiting B. Brandt or any one from run ning a beer garden withia one half mile of the city limits. John M.Mac Fabland, City Attorney. Your committee, to whom was refer red the communication to the Mayor charging that one Brandt runs a beer saloon outside of the city without license, and asking the passage of an or dinance giving the mayor, police judge and police jurisdiction in the premises, beg leave to report that they find that the mayor, police judge and policeman or any other person already has the un doubted right to make charges for any of the offences named in the mayor's communication, and haye the offenders tried under existiug laws now in full force and effect. Sec. 11 of the liquor icense law provides that if any one shall dispose of liquor without a license, on conviction thereof shall be fined not less than f 100, nor more than $500. Our state laws restrict council of cities of second class to pasting ordi nances imposing a penalty not exceeding $100, so that it is plainly seen that the state is five times more effectual than any ordinance the council are permitted to pass. Sec. 12 of the same act provides that when complaint is made against any one for selling liquor without license he shall issue a warrant for the arrest of the offender, and if upon ex. amination the magistrate shall hare rea son to believe the party guilty shall bind him over to appear at the next term of the District Court. We may observe that this offence, as all the other offences named in our laws can only be prosecuted by some person making complaint before some magis trate and prodcuing the evidence. No otb er method is known to our laws by which offenders may be legally convict ed of crime, and since our statutes fully provide against selling liquors without license, or to the habitual drunkard, or on Sunday, or fighting, and all such offences, the question arises, Why spend time and money in passing ordinances which would be a nullity as to any of fences prior to the passage of the ordi nance, and less effectual than the state laws to try such offences which may hereafter be committed, since the pro ceedings to try offenders must be the same under the ordinance as under the statutes. We can conceive of no reason for this request, unless it is upon the mistaken idea that these prosecutions can be carried on at the expense of the city treasury. Our laws do not permit the city treasury to be used for the pur pose of prosecuting such offences under ordinance any more than under the statutes, and no distinction is made be tween these offences and other misde meanors. Your committee, therefore, fail to see the propriety of attempting to pass a doubtful and useless ordinance. M. Whitmoyer, ) J. . North, Com. Bknky Ragatz, ) July 13 1886. On motion, report was adopted. On motion of Whitmoyer, City Attorney was instructed to prepare an election proclamation calling an election to vote on the question of issuing bridge bonds. On motion of Whitmoyer, City Engineer was instructed to send samples of water taken from the ground at depths of 34 and 43 feet where the waterworks are to be lo cated, to Lincoln to be analyzed.

C Swartsley has got a new well made. Hay stacks are springing up rapid ly here. Mr. McGill has purchased a self binder. O. D. Butler is putting up a good horse barn. Some of the neighbors are still cultivating corn. Miss Alvina Heideu has boen sick the past few days. George Hodel sold five loads of fat hogs last week. Waving fields of golden grain are numerous in this vicinity. Peter Greisen brought twenty head of his steers home last week. The neighbors are all feeling bap- j py over their bounteous harvest. There was born to Mrs. William Gerhold, on the 14th, a fine daughter. Some of the neighbors have com menced cutting wheat, the rye being all harvested. The weather at the present time is a little more pleasant than the scorch ing sun of last week. William Gerhold has purchased a threshing machine, and intends to make the grain fly this fall. Hog cholera is still raging in this vicinity, Louis Heiden, sr. atid Jacob Karline each having lost about thirty hogs. Messrs Wermuth & Boettcher ot Columbus, were in Bismark last week putting up reapers tor Messrs. Mueller and Heiden. Judging from the amount of lum ber which is being hauled out of Co lumbus lately, there is a great deal of building going on somewhere. The corn is doing fine, notwith standing the dry weather ; there are ears of considerable size, and the silk is making its appearance now. The sportsmen of this vicinity are waiting in anxious expectation, for the harvest to pass, so that they may exercise themselves searching for prairie chickens. Chinch bugs are again appearing in large numbers in this neighborhood, and unless there is a lull in their rav ages upon the wheat, that crop may be greatly lessened. The indications wero that we were going to have a severe storm lasr week but although the amount of rainfall was small it served to cool the atmos phere and it is hoped, pave the way for more rain. J. C. Swartsley is au energetic su pervisor, and is awake to the interests of the people of Bismark Township. George Hodel returned from Kan sas City Saturday last bringing with him sixty-eight steers which he in tends to fatten and sell about Now Years. Mr.- H. also visited the above named place a few weeks ago, but did not buy any cattle. There was an extremely enjoyable occasion at C. D. Butler's on the even ing of the 15th, at which ice cream and cake were distributed with a lavish hand by the host and hostess. This pleasure seeking company as sembled in honor of the fifteenth birth day of Miss Sybil Butler, a beautiful and accomplished youug lady and au excellent scholar. Her many friends were profuse in their congratulatory expressions which accompauied their many and costly gifts, and we sincere ly hope that she may have a long life, and happiness in the future. Two persons entered the Bismark school house the other night by break ing the catch off the shutter and rais ing the window ; it seems that they used it for a place of abode for the night, maps beiug taken off the wall and spread on the floor for beds, and other school property being used rather promiscuously. Although the amount of damage was small, yet this proceeding does not speak very well for the perpetrators. The name of one of them, (from writing on the black-board) appears to be Frank Miller, the name of the other is un known. Neither of them belongs in this neighborhood. We noticed an article in the Journal a few weeks ago entitled, "How Schools May be Reformed." This article seemed to strike most of Bismark's citizens favorably, and we think that it showed things in their true light. The one great fault of thepe modern time, Is a lack of education itself. How many thousands of people have failed in business simply for want of educa tion to carry them through life. The newspapers of today are filled with instances of this character, aud this is the very reason why children should improve their flying moments, while there is yet time. And still further, let us reflect upon the fact that our eminent men of this day have been raised to their exalted pinnacles of fame, by their possessing a good education. It is education which builds up the world. It is ed ucation in the art and science that has caused all our machinery to be constructed which made labor with the brain easier, as well as labor with the hands. Let us notice what a vast improvement has been made in the manner of educating children ; note the difference between these modern and ancient times. See what a great number of branches are being taught at present in our com mon schools, which, in olden times, were unknown even in the schools of a higher order. Education tends to promote the well fare of the hu man family ; therefore it should be encouraged in every way. It ia the bond of the human family ; nothing else can suffice to fill the position which it holds; therefore it should be encouraged aud be promoted as the greatest necessity of the age, and-the most priceless legacy which any one pommi.

Many of our readers will remember her as a teacher in our schools, in telligent, conscientious, and of very gentle disposition. In October, 1882, she was united in marriage to Mr. Talker, who now has the heartfelt sympailn ot his acquaintances in hi? irreparable loss. The funeral took place Saturday from the Episcopal church, a very large concourse following to their last resting pluce the earthly casket of a pure aud heavenly spirit. LOCAL NOTICES.
