At the last re-union G. W:
Kibler of this county met an old
comrade, John Reed, now living in
Douglas county, whom he had not
seen since he carried him off the
battle field at Jonesboro, eight miles
from Atlanta, on the Macon railroad,
wounded while tearing up the track,
so wounded that he couldn't help
himself. The meeting: was a verv
cordial one on both sides, and many
an incident of march and battle and
camp was rehearsed.

dian, under the management of Geo.
W. Walters, is booked for the Opera

Nellie Walters, under same manage
ment, Oct. 28th and 29th. When the
managers of the Opera House Co.
succeed in securing such talent, gen
erally known to be above the average,
Columbus theatre goers should turn
out and show their appreciation, with
crowded houses. Dillon played here
several years ago and was considered
"A, No. 1."
The Omaha Kcpublicrn says that
a company with a capital stock of
120,000 has been formed in Omaha
for the purpose of sinking a shaft to
the depth ot 3,000 feet, with a view
to obtaining either coal, gas or oil,
and, if possible, of thus settling the
question of cheap fuel in Omaha.
Arrangements have been made with
W. M. Martin, of Findlay, Ohio, to
take charge of the enterprise and
put down the hole. Something
similar to this would be a most ex
cellent thing for Columbus.

DEPOT.
C.al
Ckatetk-Twa E4aaFclt
WaatMfe fee Fally
Katisaed.
A force o! masons is al baud, un
der the fciijiervisioii ot a very capable
man, Mr. fc. I Jeter, to erect the new
depot here, ami the coal chutes,
both of which structures have long
beeu badly needed for the better
transaction of the company's business
at this point.
Tbe depot is to be located between
Eleventh and Twelfth streets, be
tween Olive and North, aud also
between the main track aud that of
tbe Omaha, Niobrara & Black Hills
Railroad.
It is to be of stone, with pressed
brick aud red saud-stone trimmiugs.
It will be 97 ft. 2 iu. long, and 34 ft.
2 in. wide. Tbe circular end will
face east, and a bay window on the
south side, facing the main track.
This part ot the structure will be 38
ft. 8 in. wide.
The building will.be a handsome
ouo, iu appearance resembling tbe
one just completed at Valley. Mr.
Jeter thinks that if the material ar
rives as needed, the buildiug will be
euclosed this mouth.
At the same lime work will go
forward on the coal chutes, the
plaua lor which we have not yet
seeu ; we luaru that these will be
sutiicieul to supply tue increasing
demands ot the tuaiu aud brauch
roads lor years, aud consequently
they must be of ample capacity, and
with all the uppliauces for the quick
loading aud unloading of large
quantities ot coal. This btrudure
will be located uear the Uompuu's
water tank.
O.L. Baker has the contract torgiad
iug tracks for switches west of the
present depot, aud both north and
south of the tuaiu track, so we in-er
that the yard is to he removed
thither.
We hope these are hut the begin
ning ol a long series of impsove
lueulrf here by the Union Pacific
Company. Their business on the
brauch lines to Norfolk, to Albion,
to Fullertou aud Cedar Rapids, all
radiating at this point, has grown
beyond all expectation in the lime
since these lines were constructed,
and the outlook for the years to come
is equally good, so that, with the
settlement of the country and the
capacity of the tributary regiou for
farm products, almost doubling each
year, it becomes an easy problem to
figure the great importance of this
city as a railroad center iu the uear
future.
Let every mau put his shoulder to
the wheel, make all the improve
ments be possibly can ; let our capi
talists, our building associations, and
all who can borrow money at a liv
ing rate, put up dwelliug-houses
and business houses, because there
will be use for all of them.
Keep the ball in motion.
Xfce Fair.
The Fair last week was undoubted
ly the best ever held in the couuty,
the exhibits being very full in nearly
all departments. We note some of
tbe more salient features.
John Wurdemann and Geo. Randall
bad good displays of sheep.
As to hogs, tbe breeds represented
were, Berkshire, Poland Chiua aud
Jersey Red, J. N. Taylor taking the
bulk of tbe prizes. Special mention
must be made of an unusually large
and fine boar exhibited by Tobias
Bbuer.
Cattle were well represented from
tbe herds of Wiuslow, Sheldon aud
Gleason, J. N. Taylor and S. O. Ray
mond, with a fine lot of grades from
W. II. Randall and J. N. Taylor.
Tbe entries of horses in all classes
were uuusually good, iucludiug ani
mals belonging to Jos. Gardener of
Nance county, Jas. Haney, J. N.
Taylor, A. Sullivan of Colfax county,
Nathaniel Rice, R. H. Henry and Jas.
Sonllier.
In roadsters, S. O. Raymond's
name is conspicuous on tbe list, he
getting all the awards but one which
went to Michael Savage.
In tbe exhibit by Boys and Girls,
of saddle ponies, premiums rangiug
from $5 down to 25 cents, as follows :
to Eva Clark, Chas. Stillmau, Chas.

Tbe fine specimens of poultry were

Ten prizes on root products were

Teatbcr, also twelve premiums on
vegetables.
On corn there' were 11 entries, Geo.
Scheidel and Herman Backenhus
taking 1st and 2d premiums on white
ear.
Mrs. M. Brugger took a premium
on 5 lbs. of honey.
Mrs. J. N. Heater had a display of
300 lbs. of while comb honoy, which
would have been a credit to any
county, state or national exhibit in
tbe world. One wishing to become
conversant with the art of bee-culture
could here see all tbe latest applian
ces used in tbe business, such as
smokers, surplus foundations, empty
frames, latest patent devices for cag
ing tbe queen bees, drono excluders,
honey extractors, etc.
In the women's departmentwas a
multitude of articles manufactured
and used by tbe ladies, and entirely
"too numerous to mention." Andrew
Mattis bad tbe first and only display
of dried apples ever made by Platte
county, and we noticed Mrs. W. A.
McAllister's name conspicuous on the
award list for jellies, preserves, etc.,
she also taking 1st premium and the
Journal's special premium on bread
(hop rising), Mrs. Wm. Thurston
getting the same for bread (salt
rising).
On cakes we notice tbe names of
Mrs. Wm. Thurston, Miss Ella Wells,
Mies Akes Plumb.
Ia the exhibit by schools, Dist. 10
NEW 11.1.
- -'---J
took two prizes, while Clara Lehman
gets tbe Fitzpatrick gold pen.
Tbe business men with, in all clns
e, nici display jn their lim, were
C E. Pollock Co., Krause, Lubker
& Welch, Fried hot & Co., C. & L.
Kramer. C. B. Still man, Bojltcher &
Kerf-enhrock, L nts Schreibcr, Luers
& Schaffroth, the Flouring Mills, etc.
Gen'l. Sup',. S. O. Raymond, Trcas.
John Stauffer and tbe gate-keepers,
Taylor and Wallace, did their work
in excellent shape, but tbe bulk of
tbe actual work done, in makiug
preparations and looking after every
thing fell upon the industrious Sec
retary, John G. Routson, with a good
counsel back of him, R. II. Henry.
Further particulars we give next
week.
The entire receipts were $1,147.
The weather was all that could be
desired, and hereafter there will be
pronamy no question of success, as
interest is increasing in Platte Co.
