C. E. Barrell, Ag't. - There was a report here last Mon day morning that Pat Mays of Platte Center had been bit by a mad horse, one finger cut off, breast chewed up, etc., but inquiry found no special foundation for tho reiort, except that Pat had a sick horse. How a story will grow! Columbus has enclosed grounds and erected a grand stand for her baso ball club. The club is deserving of tho sup port of the people there, as it has been successful in every contest this season, excepting with Genoa, which is the crack club of Nebraska.- Silver Creek Times. The Nebraska State Holiness Asso ciation will hold their annual camp meeting this year at their grounds at Bennet, Neb. The meeting will com mence August 23 and continue ten days. Complete circulars giving full informa tion can bo had by applying to Com mittee, Lincoln, Neb. Those who are behind at the county treasurer's office, with their payment of personal taxes would do well to ruBtle a little and see what they can do about it. The board of supervisors aro pushing on the county treasurer, and, like a water wheel, he's got to move in accordance with the law. See the notice. Saturday last the Indian boys of the Genoa school passed through the city on their way to North Bend, where they played a gamo of base ball with the club at that place, in which contest they came out second best, by a score of 28 to 9. They were accompanied by the In dian band which furnished very good music.

Mr. Henry Geotecke, while coming to this city yesterday morning met with a mishap; the team he was driving be came frightened, ran away and Mr. G. was thrown heavily to the ground dis locating his left arm at the elbow. Mr. G. is 73 years of age, and stood the ope ration of replacing the dislocated mem ber remarkably well. Earl Pearsall, Albert Parker, Chas. Stillman, Charlie Raymond and Jessie Becher, high school lads, are at work during their vacation, the latter two making hay, the others at the court house cleaning brick, etc Commenda ble, lads, nothing more honorable than honest work of the hands, and no money so good as that you earn yourself. During the storm last Saturday the barn on W. A. Davis' place, Council Creek, was struck by lightning and bad ly splintered. Three hogs were killed by the stroke. For the first time this season Mr. Davis had that day turned his driving team to pasture, and it prov ed a very lucky thing, as the feed boxes in both stalls were shattered. Genoa Leader. PERSONAL.

Boeder and child and her sister Miss Nellie Smith went to Grand Island Saturday on a visit to friends. A. C. Southard of the vicinity of Oco nee was in town Thursday. He looks in better health than when he arrived in Nebraska a few weeks ago. J. C. Martin was down from Silver Creek Friday last and umpired the game of ball to the entire satisfaction of the Fremont and Columbus boys. Warwick Saunders of the Platte Cen ter Argus was in the city Friday and witnessed the Columbus boys walk away with Fremont's "baggage" at base ball. J. F. Bixby, editor of the Genoa Lead er, was in town Friday last to witness the game of ball and have a ride on the street cars. He went home well pleased with both. Mrs. L. E. Hammond and her niece, Anna Osborne, who have been visiting Mrs. H's sister, Mrs. C. G. Hickok, re turned yesterday to their homo at Glen wood, Iowa. W. B.

The verdict this time was murder in the sec ond degree, and he goes to the peniten tiary for life. John H. Sacrider and son "Mel" were in the city Thursday. Everything in the way of farm produce is reported favorable in their neighborhood, except ing that the chinch bugs were taking more or less wheat, mainly of the later varieties. Wm. Clifford of Carthago, Dakota, was a pleasant caller at these headquarters Thursday last and ordered tho Journal and the Ne& Family Journal for the next year. Mr. C. has an interest in lands in Platte county and is well aware that it is an investment which will pay. The game of base ball Friday last between the Fremont and home teams at the new grounds nt the end of the street-car line in tho western part of the city, (generously leased for base ball purposes without a money consideration by Leander Gerrard), attracted quite a large crowd of spectators who were well repaid by witnessing a very interesting and hotly-contested game which result ed in a victory for the home club by a score of 8 to 5. The game passed off very pleasantly without a single wrangle, showing that the two clubs are composed of gentlemen who play good ball. The visitors didn't seem to be able to get on to Finecy's twirlers, but few balls being knocked outside the diamond. He was strongly supported behind the bat by Fred. Camptall. Our boyB have been playing great ball this season, having lost but one out of six matched games played. The amphitheater recently erected at the new grounds was well patronized at Friday's game, and is quite a convenience to spectators. The Inxtitatr. Prof. Knepper, the conductor of our coming institute, will give his attention to the theory and art of instructing children in the several branches pursued in our schools, and illustrate the same, with his classes, during the recitations. Laying out work, preparing lessons, etc., will be shown practically with the class es. The different branches will be re viewed thus uniting theory with the daily work, giving a double value to the exercises. The work will be topical and teachers can bring with them any text books they have. Programs of the in stitute will be issued as soon as all ar rangements are completed. Everything promises a large attendance, and one of the best sessions ever held in the county. Teachers should all be present. A new corps of instructors with the most re cent methods will give a new interest to the work. School officers, who can do so, should visit the institute during its session. Wm. Matson was in town Saturday and called at these headquarters to re new his subscription with the Journal. When anybody talks to him about the good old democratic days he refers them to a time when he hauled a twenty-five bushel load of corn fifteen miles to mar-, ket, sold it for 8 cents a bushel, invest ed all the proceeds in a barrel of salt, and lacked sixty-five cents to pay for the salt Also that he sold 700 bushels of wheat at 48 oents a bushel and got just enough money out of it to pay his threshing bill; the remainder, owing to the system of wildcat banking in vogue in those days, was no good in a few days. Mr. Matson thinks that the re publican party in any two years of its existence, has done more for the conn, try, than the democratic party did during all its existence, Those who failed to see Grenier Bros.' Royal European circus and me nagerie missed the opportunity of a life-time. It is the best old-time one ring performance that ever exhibited in Chicago. It certainly is a first-class show and the menagerie live up to what they advertise. No wonder the press and public are so intense in their en- thusiasm. Inter Ocean.

In our last we did not catch II. B. Reed, foreman for J. H. Beed and Fred Luckey; each have purchased a new reaper and binder, that looks red with rust gathered from the grain. C. H. Saley and lady of Columbus were visiting in this direction last Sab bath. There! the first good thing Mr. Her ring did, (that we know of), after his re turn from Colorado was to have a wind mill erected over his well. He can now sit in the shade of the tower and whistle, while the mill does all the work. Waggoner & Barnes have purchased a new traction engine which will furnish the power to run their large threshing machine; the engne is so constructed as to travel on the road without the aid of horses to guide it.

AH teachers of the county are ex pected to be present. 6 L. J. Cramer. A number of our people watched with interest the progress of the eclipse of the moon Sunday night. The move ment of tho earth's shadow was fairly plain, notwithstanding the clouds, and the period of totality could be seen dis tinctly. The red glow of the body of the moon, and the ghastly aspect re flected to the earth made an interesting sight. Soon after totality the scene was entirely obscured by heavy clouds, and the return of tho moon's brightness was not seen. No circus ever exhibited for so long a time eight weeks and to such a tre mendous business as the Grenier Bros. The patronage is derived from the in telligent and educated classes of people and tho wonderful attractions under the big white tents are all of such a high moral character, so truly phenomenal and marvelous, so instructing and amusing at the same time, as to receive endorsement of the best informed peo ple. Chicago Thibune. Louis Smith was put upon his trial here last week on a charge of adultery with his niece, Emma Hosner, a girl sixteen years old, daughter of John Hosner, also an action for seduction. Smith deeded eighty acres of land to Hosner and we suppose that the matter will rest. Smith is a married man, and is also believed by Hosner to know the whereabouts of his son, who disappeared several weeks ago. Hogan'x Stock Sale.

Last Monday Bonda Peterson bought a Buckeye self-binder at Platto Center and whilo a fow miles from homo his wagon overturned throwing him out and the binder on top of him. He was un conscious for a while but recovering he called for help. Mr. and Mrs. Adams, hearing his cries, came to his assistance, but both not being able to remove the binder. Mrs. Adams ran for help. Four men lifted tho box and he was taken to Mrs. A's house and cared for till he could bo removed home. His injuries, though sovero, are not so serious as at first feared and ho is rapidly recovering. Dr. Florg of St. Edward attended him. We had a terrific thunder storm Fri day evening which seemed to spend its force in this vicinity, though severe in other places. The rain was much needed. One night last week as Mr. Flick, who works for J. M. Anderson, went to the door the pet dog sprang upon him, catching his face in its jaws, tearing it severely. Mr. Flick is slowly recover ing. The brute was immediately killed. We understand the camp meeting will be held in Baur's grove as usual, but do uot know tho date of commencement. Dan. BIRTHS. EKNST-July Mill. llUh, to Mm. Wm.
