Crops in thiB region of Nebraska aro in extra goou condition. ine soil was never in better condition than last spring, by reason of the heavy snows in the winter ; the rains were abundant in early spring, aud now again, as the corn ears, plenty ot moisture will bring it forward. R. Brandt and his barkeeper, Herman Wolf, were arrested yester day morning by Deputy Sheriff New man, on a charge of selling liquor without license. They gave bail and the trial will come off this afternoon before his honor, Judge Spiece of the County Court. Walter Mead is the complaining witness. Detective John Huber of this city, one day last week brought in from Hastings Charles Price, who is charged with swindling some Platte county farmers on a patent fence post. George Murie, living west of this city, bought $83 worth of the article, and was the cause of his arrest. Good for George. Some people are incredulous about a machine that will do all or dinary sewing as good as any other, and, in addition, work a first-class button-hole. There need be no doabt about it. Send a postal card to A. & M. Turner, Columbus, Nebr., stating your desire to purchase such a machine, and they will deliver it to you, and guarantee satisfaction. 14-2 Thursday morning last Wm. Walker's saloon, on 11th street, was broken into, and -about fifty dollars worth stolen, consisting of $5.65 cash, two revolvers, cigars, etc, etc. Mr. Walker and Sheriff Kavanaugh fol lowed the supposed thief and captured- him at Grand Island, getting the revolvers and $230. The fellow had been working here on the waterworks aud was registered at his hotel as W. H. Brice. He says his name is Wm. Dawson. One day this week Mr. W. M. Clinton, of the B. & M. K. R. and Dr. Hunt went down to Buck Island in the Platte river, aud succeeded in shooting two very due specimens of the American Eagle one measuring u ft. 4 in. and the other t it. 8 in. from tip to tip. Mr. C. killed his while Dr. U. wounded' his and cap tured it alive. They also killed a snake, which Mr. C. declared to be 32 ft. 5 in. in length and as large as a telegraph pole. Dr. H. says his Eagle was loaded for "bar," from the way he showed fight when caught. The Doctor even wished his Eagle dead before he got to town with it. A goodly number of teachers and citizens were in attendance at the social at the Congregational church Monday evening. Sup't. Tedrow presided, and Prof. Backus con ducted the music, with Miss Anna Turner at the organ. The Bpeecb of welcome was made by G. B. Bow man, Esq., who dwelt particularly upon our font of governmeat, and the fact that for what we are, as a people, we owe the public free-school system more than any other ageacy. The respease waa aaade, ia choice aeatimeat aad laaguage, by Miss Ida Martya, after which all eajoyed UMBMelvas in ceavemUe aatil ai- BilsaBarac XwafclsK Corn is earing out splendidly. nay making will toon commence. Joha G. Dreher sold laa loads of fat hogs last week. Rain is coming in abundance now, and it is just what the corn neens to prodnco large ears. Owing to circumstances, Bismarck Township will fail to receive men tion in the columns of the Journal for a few weeks. Mr. and Mrs. John Sissle of Co lumbus Township were in Bismark last week visiting John G. Dreher and family; he also visited the writer. There was a reaper going on Charles Hoagland's place last even ing for sometime after sun down; perhaps it kept going until the rain stopped it about two o'clock iu tho morning; we cannot state the last as a fact, as we did not sit up until that hour, to personally inspect matters. A fine spectacle was witnessed here on the night of the 27th, in an ex hibition of northern lights, which shot up to a great distance; this afforded an excellent opportunity for the yonng folks to remain up; es pecially for the girls, if their beaux were there; we wonder if any of them did practice this trick on their parents. Jacob Karline, while stacking grain last week, came across a pretty ugly customer in the shape of a hnge bull-snake; he soon dispatched it, however, and when dead it measured snmethiug over five feet long, and was as large as a man's arm. Every one who has seen it pronounces it the largest snake seen in these parts Tor quite a number of years. Hogs are still dying in great num bers in this vicinity, Mrs. Karline having lost about thirty, and George Hodel almost bis entire lot; many of the other neighbors have lost smaller numbers, and still others have their entire herds sick. Some have ex pressed their opinion that hog cholera is a result of filth, and nn cleanliness in hog pens ; this may be true. We saw in last week's issue of the Journal that a gentleman from Wisconsin, says that he fed his hogs on oatB, whole, and although the cholera was all around him he did not loose a hog. This seems to be a good plan as T. M. Wilson has been practicing it for some weeks past, and none of bis hogs are sick yet. Another remedy in the Nebraska Farmer is from a gentleman of Ashland, Nebr. ; he says that giving hogs salt brine and forcing them to drink it, is quite a valuable remedy though comparatively worthless ex cept in case where 'the hogs have a fever. No one in this vicinity has, as yet, tested this remedy. Still another one in the same paper is from D. H. Webster, of Austin, Missouri, which we give in full as follows: A few days ago while in conversa tion with a neighboring physician, one who takes great delight in rais ing and caring for fine hogs, I learned of a new remedy for hog cholera at least it was new to me and as this dreadful scourge is re ported in some localities, I propose to give it publicity. If the remedy proves efficacious it will be valuable to bog raisers, and if it fails the ex pense attending a trial amounts to but little, as the vine grows in nearly all parts of the country. The com mon name of the plant is Poison Oak or Poison Ivy; Latin, Toxicoden drum; German, Qlftsumach. It is found in the forests growing closely to the bark of trees. The vine often attains the size of one's arm. As some persons are so sensitive to the poisonous vapor that is emitted from the plant causing an eruption of the skin, it is best to handle it with gloves. Cut the viae into pieces an inch or two in length, boil a quantity of them in water until the fluid be comes a strong decoction, and use this "without any stint" either in swill or if the cases are so bad as to refuse food by drenching; The doctor informed me that be bad used the remedy for several years in cases of the hog cholera where be had to drench them and that he had never lost a case. Of course, success can not be expected every time. We hope those who are so unfortunate as to have this disease in their herd will give it a trial and report results. He says there is no danger from over dosing. This method also remains untested in this vicinity, although in other localities it .has been practiced with success. We advise all persons who have a great many hogs, and are in danger of losing them to try some of these methods of treating the dis ease, and if they should not prove valuable, it would at least save others the trouble of a trial, and we are sure there are a great many such benevolent spirits in every com munity. Chables. ateaaalicaa Ceatral Committee.

Robt. Wiley lost a valuable horse a few days ago. Mr. J. Elliott of Columbus is vis iting in this neighborhood. Rev. Mr. Cummins preached in the Congregational church Stindiy las!. Mrs. S. II. Patterson, who has been visiting friends in this vicinity, re turned to her home in North Platte this week. The Matson district intend building a new school house, as tho one they have is too small to accommodate 60 many pupils; several meetings have been held to decide on the location, but the latest report is that it is to be left to the decision of the County Superintendent. Harvesting is nearly finished, aud people are busy stacking. Rye, wheat and oats are excellent, the dry weather did dot injure early grain as much as it was feared it would, and theraiu of the 22nd and 23d helped the late oats to fill. So the crop of small grain will not fall below the average yield. Early flax is good, but late sown was injured badly by the drought. Corn looks well, and as we are having frequent rains the prospects are favorable for a fair crop. On Sunday, tho twenty-Gfth inst., Miss Walters, corresponding sec retary of the Women's Foreign Mis sionary society of the M. E. church, delivered an address at Okay, in behalf of the women of heathen lands, after which a collection was taken for missionary purposes. Dr. Armstrong was also present ami made a statement iu regard to the progress of the work at the Orphan's Home. The work of building will soou commence; already applications are being made for the admission of children to the home. T. 1 X. Weuther Report.
