something wonderful. It is a company
pf foreigners, who landed in New York a

all the principal cities of Europe as
well as this country, with great success.
Admission 50 cents, reserved seats, 75

The printers' annual excursion with
their invited friends took place the first
of the week, the objective point being
Blaser's lake, twelve miles west of the
city. C. W. McCune of the Democrat
office secured the greater number of
fish, with 'Jinimy" Brown a close
second who carried off tho honors of tho
day by safely landing the largest one;
for the exact count these gentlemen will
have to be interviewed. "Fatty" Curtis
'though being a very heavy-weight,
"showed" his activity (?) during the day
to good advanta'ge while capturing small
frogs for bait. Our informant thinks
"Fatty" should leave his dude pants at
home next time ho goes on such an ex
cursion or have some of his friends meet
him on the outskirts of town on his re
turn. A column of space might be oc
cupied in giving full details of how
Johnny Meyer of the Lincoln Journal
wiis "knocked-out" in a half round with
soft gloves by "Tug," a heavy-weight of
the Journal; howFinecy darkened the
right eyo of our Satan; the amusing in
cidents told by Kennedy and Lee
O'Dounell in their endeavors to get
the "gang" started at five o'clock in the
morning; but space is limited and it
"goes" without saying that the boys en
joyed the trip hugely.
W. S. Winterbotham drove down
from Genoa Saturday, returning Mon
day morning. Will, is very enthusiastic
over the prospects of Genoa, and well he
may be. It is located in a splendid
agricultural region, and has an excel
lent start for a good market town.- The
enlargement and perfecting of the In
dian Industrial school will be a wonder
ful stroke of good policy, and bring
quick returns for efforts made. The
construction of the Loup bridge will
make a portion of country tributary that
will probably add twenty per cent, to
the business of the town. Genoa, too
has splendid facilities for waterworks at
a nominal cost. A reservoir on the
bluffs north of town, and fed by wind
mill power, would give a fall of a hun
dred feet We know of no small town
in this region more favorably situated
every way, including freedom from rival
townB close at hand.
Dave Smith took a little vacation
Sunday making a trip over into Polk
county. Ho reports crops on the south
side of the river as looking splendid, and
after driving twenty-two miles a little
fatigued and considerably hungry, he
stopped at Henry Hewitt's, 3 miles
south of the thriving little city of Shelby,
and in just thirty minutes Mollie had
the table spread with a good bill of
fare: baked chicken, boiled ham, chicken
salad, mashed potatoes, sauer kraut,
dressing with gravy, mixed pickle,
pickled onions and salads. Dessert:
gooseberry and rhubarb pie, jelly roll
cake, plum preserves, gooseberry pre
serves, plum butter. Well, I am tired,
but Mollie makes you think you are at
the Clother house even at home. Also
a new cook just arrived, weighing 10 lbs.
and the farm is hardly big enough to
hold Henry and Mollie.
At the Germania, before a largo and
enthusiastic audience, tho Tyrolean
Arbor Concert Tronp gave a very suc
cessful entertainment la6t evening.
The company, consisting of 20 men, ap
pearing in their picturesque national
Tyrolean costumes, together with their
curious instruments which are entirely
made of woods from the forests of Tyrol,
present quite an interesting appearance.
When the curtain rose the audience
were at first at a loss to understand
how such instruments, looking like
tree branches could make music. Never
theless when the first notes were heard
everybody was astonished at tho soft,
sweet, clear sounds produced, even
the faintest tones being plainly heard in
every part of the theater. Exclama
tions of wonderment were heard on all
sides. New York World.

It is rumored that the B. & M. and
U. P. have made an arrangement so that
the former will make its run from here
to Schuyler on the U. P. track, and the
latter its run to David City on the B. &
M. track. This is probably from the
fertile imagination of the same fellow
who thought tho B. & M. and the U. P.
systems had been united because T. J.
Potter, so long identified with the C. B.
& Q. and B. & M., had recently accepted
a position with the U. P. Closing, we
may say that we can find no other
foundation for the rumor.
We have had occasion more than once
to commend the activity of the Colum
bus -correspondents of the Omaha and
Lincoln papers. While they of course
work for some little pay like tho re
mainder of the newspaper people, theirs
is mainly a labor of love, like the rest,
and does other people of the community
a considerable amount of good. Hudson,
for the itee.Dale for the Republican and
Lincoln Journal and Phillips for the
Herald, have every day, almost, some
important dispatch to send in.
The party announced to start for
California last Saturday, have been de

D. Clark and daughter, and J. G. Rout
son and family. The Journal is sorry
to see them .go, but some for one reason,
some for another, they think their lot
will be better in that new land, and so
God speed and success to them.
Well! They say, sometimes, that it
don't pay for a farmer to sell his cream
to the Creamer- men, but it looks as
though it is all right with the Stevenson
Bros. Their business has grown amaz
ingly and they are certainly getting
solid with the men who have cream.
Take for an instance. D. L. Bruen got
for cream furnished during April, from
ten cows, $22.82, a right good income,
The Colaabas Motor Railway.
On Saturday articles of incorporation
were filed in the County Clerk's office
by the Columbns Motor Company, capi
tal stock 8200,000, with authority to in
crease it to 8500,000. The incorporators
ars Robert H. Henry, Leander Gerrard,
Herman Oehlrich, George Lehman,
James R. Meagher, John H. Kersenbrock,
all citizens of Columbus, and well known
for their ability, financial and. other
wise. The scheme includes a street-car lino
within the city and a system of lines in
to the adjacent country, Platte, Colfax,
Butler and Polk counties.
Sixty miles, of road centering at Co
lumbns with two or at most three en
gines, would easily run trains to Colum
bus from four directions every hour of
the day, saving to those on or near the
line the work of a team for a day, and
often that of the driver of the team, to
do shopping in the city.
Within two years from today the
number of people in Columbus may
easily bo doubled,and this motor road,bc
sides other projects on foot, are calcu
lated to provide for the increase. The
road as contemplated will not only en
hance the value of city property, but all
along their route, lands will be more
valuable because of the road; every
where else these roads have been insti
tuted, the good effects have been im
mediately felt, and the conditions here
are Just such as to insure like re
sults. While Columbus is in tho very front
rank of enterprising cities of its size,
with all the modern appliances for com
fortable living, it must progress with
the times. Communities are liko men,
they must either go forward or go back
ward, and we are sure that the business
men of the city, more unified in senti
ment and purpose than ever before, are
determined to let no occasion pass by
for adding to the facilities of Columbus
for increasing the volume of her busi
ness with the outside world.
At the Front.
The Argus is inclined to think, not
that Columbus will not succeed in her
motor road scheme, but that people now
living must continue to survive until
they be as old as Methuselah before
they well bo gratified with the sight of a
train. This fling at tho enterprise of
Columbus business men and capitalists
is of course intended as a joke, notwith
standing the fact that such references o
Methuselah are now regarded as very
ancient "chestnuts." The Argus will
find that Columbus is fully alive to the
situation. Her men have held them
selves in readiness to take Time by the
forelock, whenever his shining pate
should appear. He has come, and they
have a firm hold, and propose to keep it
There is nothing like a united effort,
and that's what's here just now. Every
man is talking in favor of Columbus;
every manufacturing interest now here
is encouraged to enlarge its capacity;
eVery man is doing somo improvement
on his own account and is fully alive to
the general interests. We have our
waterworks, our electric lights, our two
great flouring mills, etc., etc.; Columbus
is as far along in all that makes a pro
gressive community in a very progress
ive time, as any city in tho" west, and
what is ni6re, so far at least, it is her
own capital that has been invested, her
people own her houses, and they are un
usually free from incumbrance. Not all
the men who have accumulated wealth
here have carried it away with them to
other places, either; notwithstanding
tho fact that at least one hundred thous
and dollars in capital has thus left Co
lumbus in the past year only, thero is
plenty left to handle any scheme that
may approve itself to the judgment sis
a good one, and it will take no Methu
selah to be able to see it, either. Even
the Argus man with half an eye cannot
fail to see it.
ladies of C'oliimliufi ami Vicinity!
We will open in Columbus on Tuesday
May tho 24th, in the Journal building
south of new U. P. depot, one door east
of Kramer's store, a very large stock of
ladies' and children's trimmed and un
trimnied hats. We will remain here for
one week only, and we shall expect to
see every lady of Columbus and the
country around in our store during our
stay in your city. We will havo an ele
gant line of hats; we will have a larger
line of goods than it has ever been your
pleasure to select from.
We will have one table fidl of ladies'
and children's hats which we will sell at
81.00 each,, and another table full of
trimmed hats which we will sell at 81.50
each, any of which would be cheap at
twice the money. Be sure to visit our
store while we are in your city as we will
save you money, and also give you the
very largest stock to select from. We
will have lots of imported Berlin hats.
Remember the date, commencing Tues
day, May the 24th, for one week only.
