Among their latest is a twenty-four page folder with map on reverse aide setting forth the inducements for business lo cations at Fremont. It is a splendid advertising scheme and printed at the Fremont Tribune office. G. W. Barnhart of the Live Stock Commission tells us that during the last month they have paid out $1900 to the owners of glandered horses. He thinks that Nebraska is now freer from the glanders peet than any other state in the Union, and that six months from now she will be entirely free. A traveling man, seeing the city streets lit up by electric light, and the same brilliancy in the business places of the city, wonders why the handsome Union Pacific depot is not also supplied with the latest-improved light. We couldn't answer. Perhaps the attention of the head man has not been .directed that way. Pancake supper, broom brigade drill, Mrs. Jarley's wax-works, a musical entertainment, and other amusements, at the Opera House, Monday evening, Feb. 13th, benefit of the Episcopal church.

EL Sheldon gives an instance of what can be done here with German millet He sowed 1 bushels on four acres of sod plowing and threshed from it 112 bushels of seed worth $1 a bushel, besides having six loads of good straw for feed. The millet was sowed light, of course, because it will produce a much larger yield. Dan. Binehard, who returned last week from a short trip to Iowa, gives some of the methods of obtaining liquor in that prohibition state one of the latest being to take orders for all vari ties of drinkB to be shipped from Can ada, in the original package, to each purchaser. In this way every man can get his pint, quart, gallon or peck. We, the undersigned, pupils of the First Ward School, desire to express our sincere gratitude to Mr. Keating for so nobly and bravely taking us safely home during the terrible storm in which so many perished: Grade Clark, Sarah Reagan, Nellie Schonlon, Alma Schon lou, Mary Ellen Cassin, Lizzie Cassin, Clara Laughlin, Frieda Laughlin, Annie Reimer. Next Monday, at the store of Krause Bros., in this city, will be sold at public auction, a lot of buggies, spring wagons, plows, heating and cooking-stoves, tin ware, cutlery, fire-proof safe, and all articles usually kept in a hardware store. There will no doubt be some good bar gains in these goods, for those who at tend. See advertisement in another col umn in today's Journal. A large number of tickets have been sold for the entertainment this (Tues day) evening for the benefit of Miss Etta Shattuck, a teacher who suffered during the storm and has since had both feet amputated. It is hoped that Nebraska will contribute about $10,000 as a fund to put on interest as a life-annuity for Miss Shattuck's benefit, in addition to what will be given outright. Brother Bixby, who has been labor ing for the past eight months on a prohibition paper at Denver, returned last Friday to Fullerton, his old "stamp ing ground" where he will publish the Telescope. We are glad to have Brother Bixby for a near neighbor again. He likes Nebraska a great deal better than he does Colorado, and we expect to see a racy showing-up of life in Colorado. A petition is being numerously signed for congress to grant 160 acres of land to those who served as soldiers during the Rebellion. The reasons set forth are that in many places the en listment officers made representations of this kind as an inducement to enlist, and that many soldiers are now too old to homestead government land on the frontier. Those who wish to sign the petition will find a copy at the post office. Edward Mahoney, one of Platte county's honored farmers, died at his home after a brief illness, Saturday, January 23. His remains were interred in St Patrick cemetery Monday, followed by a large number of his friends. Mr. Mahoney was 58 years of age. He moved to this county from Wisconsin about 9 years ago. Mrs. Mshoney died a short while after they came here. Three chil dren are left to mourn the loss of their parents Henry, Katie and Denny Ma honey. ("Argus. W. J. Yost of Fremont was here yes terday, making arrangements for the new Singer office, on Nebraska Avenue, in charge of H A. Berry and F. H. Marty, two young gentlemen well-known in this community. Their office on Ne braska Avenue, one door north of Mrs. Drake's, is neatly fixed up, and those wanting the old reliable Singer sewing machine can be accommodated with any of the many styles. Before you buy a sewing machine, don't fail to call and see the Singer and ascertain prices. A move is being made for bridging Shell creek on the 6th principal merid ian. The more good roads and bridges the better for the market towns and for those who come and go. The effects of the grader are seen in the land. A still greater deepening of the ditches and a crowning of the middle of the roads will add greatly to their 'value, and with solid, permanent bridges, as soon as the proper authorities can lay them, a good deal has been done towards perfecting every substantial interest of a commu nity. Willard & Frazier have been buying some heavy hogs lately; of D. Behlen they purchased 22 that averaged 476 lbs., one of them weighing 700; of D. Wetgen they got 48, averaging 388 lbs.; of J. H. Reed 20, averaging 377 lbs.; and of a number of others 210, that averaged 375 lbs. The South Omaha Daily Stockman of Wednesday last says: "Willard & Frazier, of Columbus, topped the hog market again today which brought $5.40. The hogs were raised by Henry Watkins, of Columbus. It is to be doubted if there are any other shippers to this market who are sending in as many prime heavy hogs as Willard & Frazier. Their hogs invariably top the market They are satisfied that it pays to handle good stock.' L J. Manatt Chancellor of the State University at Lincoln, visited the city last Thursday for the purpose, as pre viously announced in the Journal, of adjusting 'the course of study in our public schools to the University course. He passed the day at the High School, submitting the pupils to the test of written and oral examinations, and ex pressed himself as very well pleased with the work being done. The course, as laid down, will entitle graduates to enter the freshman class of the University, excepting that they wiB need te do some additional work on the study of Ger man.

Martin, Esq., of Silver creek, passed through the city Thursday bound for Lincoln. He says that the republi cans of his town have organized a club and have fifty members as a starter. County Supervisors Oleson and Irwin were in the city Wednesday. You couldn't have told by their appearance that they had greater cares upon their shoulders than ordinary citizens have. J. J. Graves was in the city Wednes day, and gave the Journal office a call, giving us some of his experiences while traveling in the south two years ago. Any one desiring to know the truth in regard to Arkansas, for instance, can get it of Mr. G. An organization was effected Jan. 3d for the purpose of providing a place for the social, spiritual, intellectual and physical development of young men "within our gates." The organization was perfected Monday evening by the election of the following officers: Rev. R L. Knox, president; J. E. Tasker, vice president; C. J. Garlow, recording sec retary; V. H. Weaver, financial secretary and Henry Hockenberger, treasurer, and by the adoption of constitution and by laws.

Pollock & Co 9 60 The Leap Year ball last Friday night at the Maennerchor Hall, was at tended by more than fifty couples, and is pronounced the most decided social success of the season. From the "Grand March" at 10, till Prof. Ramsey called the "Home, Sweet Home" waltz, at three, or thereabouts, the dances numbered twenty-fiva The reverse order was ob served throughout, and the captives all, seemed highly pleased some of them, however, are now Buffering from colds contracted by being out so late in the night air or rather so early in the morn ing air. We hear that one of the young gentlemen, thoughtful for the future, rather deprecates the precedent estab lished by the young ladies of going to the expense of employing 'busses, hacks, etc., to convey their partners to the ball, at least while the walking was so good. This is a aatter which will naturally right itself, however, and may well be excused on this occasion. At Rest. Miss Etta Shattuck passed peacefully to her long rest Monday morning at 9 o'clock, her father, mother, two sisters and brother being present. A telegram from Seward says that her long fasting while imprisoned in the haystack reduc ed her to an almost helpless condition; her back was badly frozen and the flesh sloughed away from the body, leaving a hole one to two inches in depth; had she lived, it would have been necessary to Birform another amputation of both legs, er age was 19 years, 9 months and 28 days.
