Frank Cook, advance agent for
the "Muggs' Landing" Comedy Corn
pan), was in the city Friday last
making arrangements to play his
company here to-morrow evening,
Feb. 10. He is business in a minute
and no doubt represents a No. 1
troupe.
C. W. McCune, doing committee
clerk duty during the season of leg
islature, came up from Lincoln Fri
day evening and remained over Sun
day with his family of this city. He
is of the opinion that the railroad
commission law will not be repealed
by this legislature.
One of our citizens who knows
Omaha men thoroughly says there
is no doubt but the men engaged in
boring for coal have struck it,. but
whether it is only a "pocket," will
have to be demonstrated by the sink
ing of other boles. In the meantime
property is advancing, and changing
hands rapidly.
Willie Anderson's young friends
the other evening came in without
previous notice to him, and from the
crowd present he was presented with
books, gold napkin ring and slippers.
The young folks called it a surprise
party. Willie opened bis eyes wide
to lake it In, and to him it was a
genuine surprise.
The directors of the Board of
Trade have appointed a committee
consisting of Geo. Lehman, O. T.
Rocn and J. E. North, to solicit sub
scriptions for the establishment of an
oat meal mill. J. D. Brewer is the
nucleus of the enterprise, and the
Journal would be much pleased to
see the project succeed.
That wouldn't be a bad scheme
proposed by one of our eastern ex
changes for congress to appropriate
money out of the treasury to erect a
good government building for post
office, &c, in every town of three
thousand population in the Union.
It would put some of the hoarded
dollars into circulation and be a ben
efit to the country.
Fatty Woods has recently added
to his force so as to suit his increase
of custom, having now, besides him
self and Mr. Wm. Taylor (who has
been with him for qnite a while and
made many friends,) Mr. Louis Zin
necker, of Greenfield, Ohio, (German)
and a number-one artist. The Chicago
Barber Shop is determined to keep
the lead. Baths will be put in order
so soon as the city is ready to furnish
water. 42-4
The City Council at their meet
ing Saturday evening accepted the
waterworks with the condition that
Eome minor things are yet to be done
according to specification, and which
can be easily completed when spring
opens. We venture to say that no
city in Nebraska has a finer plant
than Columbus has for the money,
and great credit is due to oar cit
izen, Charles Schroeder, for the
work he has done.
Sclaoal If !.
The enrollment and attendance
begin to show the effects of cold
weather. Neither stoves nor furnace
have been proof against the assaults
of Jack Frost.
An interesting program was ren
dered by the pupils of Mr. ShafT
room last Friday, at their rhetorical.
The exercises were conducted in a
business like manner and were
creditable to all concerned. Pupils
learn parliamentary law and tact, at
the same time they handle their
literary themes. A number of vis
itors were present and took an active
interest in the performances.
The juniors have commenced the
study of physics, and show commen
dable interest. They are also at
work on Rip Van Winkle in the
literary course, and find much amuse
ment, as well as instruction in the
pursuit.
The Seniors are at work on "figures
of speech," and cultivate their taste
in that direction with accounts of a
'Trip up tl-e Amazon," "The Assassi
nation of Caesar," and the "Exper
iences of a Geutleman from Limerick
in houiesteading," etc. The class
will take characters iu Macbeth and
render the sance at the Friday after
noon rhetoricals.
The young gentlemen of the chem
istry class have completed a camera
which throws a good image of the
whole city, on a sheet of paper at the
bottom of the box. The young
ladies propose tracing it with pencil.
The teachers and pupils of the
Third ward building highly ap
preciate the double windows which
protect the west and north sides of
their building.
The First ward schools are better
attended this year than they have
been for several years. The atten
dance is very regular, for which the
teachers feel thankful.
The Union Pacific Railroad Co.
is doing some good work for them
selves and at the same time for the
city, too. It looks as though their
intention is, in time, to have most ot
their yardage beyond the central
part of the city, and to, clear up
Eleventh and Twelfth streets, and
make them fairly tenantable for
business. We are told that a double
track is contemplated at least be
tween Omaha and Columbus, which
is an excellent good thing. There is
no good reason why every quarter
section of the fertile soil of this val
ley cannot be put under cultivation,
and made to produce for the thous
ands of workmen that are to congre
gate, in time, all along this great
thoroughfare Let the mouey that is
made in Nebraska be spent in Ne
braska ; let us, as much as possible,
raise what we use,aud put our surplus
into merchantable shape to bring us
in money. It seems to the Journal
that the management of the railroad
coiupauies are opening their eyes to
their own true interest a little more
than heretofore, and are inclining
toward that policy which recognizes
the fact that the public has rights
that must be respected.
Don't forget the Lycoum euter
tainment Friday evening. This in
stitution has become quite a favorite
with the Columbus public every
one who crosses the threshold being,
for the time, a member entitled to all
privileges. Once in a while, when
money is needed for expenses of fuel
and lights, which is $2,50 an evening,
an entertainment is given 'at which
an admission is charged, and it is
hoped that the one Friday evening
will pay for the last two and the fol
lowing months of the season. On
general principles, and for the special
good it is doing, the Lyceum deserves
a liberal patronage next Frilay
evening.

As an inducement to laughter the
above named play is certainly up!
away np I terribly np ! t Miss Clark,
aB Muggs, has found a part that fits
her to a nicety petite, pretty and
piquant. She is tho embodiment of
grace and action, possesses a well
cultivated voice, dances admirably,
and is in every respect the peer of
Annie Pixley in "M'liss," and has de
cidedly the advantago of that lady in
youth and beauty. The company
was greeted by a large and fashion
able audience last evening, and the
universal verdict was excellent.
Buffalo Courier.
Henggler, a Columbus brewer,
sued McDonald & Prather, Bellwood,
for "goods" purchased by the Bell
wood parties and not paid for, J. W.
McLoud appearing for plaintiff and
for defendants. The leading
defense was that the "goods" were
spoiled, and that plaintiff claimed pay
for goods not received by defendants.
The defense proving to the satisfac
tion of the court that they owed the
exact amount claimed by plaintiff,
judgment was rendered accordingly.

Black Hole, an appellation famil
iarly given to a dungeon or dark cell
in a prison, aud which is associated
iu the public mind with a horrible
catastrophe in the history of British
India namely, the cruel confine
ment of a party ol English in an
aparttueut called the "Black Hole ot
Calcutta,' ou the night of the 18th ol
June 1750. The garrison of the fort
connected with the English factory at
Calcutta, having been captured by
the nabob Suraja Dowiab, this bar
barian caused the whole of the
prisoners taken, 14C in number, to be
confined in an apartment 20 feet
square. This cell had only two small
windows, aud these were obstructed
by a veranda. The crush of the un
happy sufferers was dreadful ; and
alter a night of excruciating agony
from pressure, heat, thirst and want
of aii, there were in tho morning
only 23 survivors, the jrhaBtlioet forms
1 ver seen ou earth. Chambers's En

Ira C. Bachelor teaches the Jack
son school ; his ideas of teaching are
in accord with the principles of
Froebel, the founder of the Kinder
garteu ; that queer old man, as it was
said, made all sorts of wonderful
things out of stones and cobwebs. In
Mr. Bachelor's school the rigidness
of discipline gives way for a little of
nature aud there are pictures from
the home and scenes from Arcadia
hung on the walls. There is a picture
of some children playing hop-scotch,
and another of grand-ma and grand
pa trying to untangle a snarl of yarn
in the possession of a sportive kitten.
This may seem foolish to some
teachers, but the day of the crabbed
and stern school-master is gone,
under whose tyranny the scholars
must iraagiue themselves in a straight
jacket aud stifle every natural feeling
or thumbs up and fingers to feel the
tingling smarts of the fertile. When
the mind is wearied with the prob
lems in the text book and would seek
a moment's rest, there is nothing
more appropriate than that the eye
should rest on something pretty and
sweet and homely. X.
