It is wonderful tho amount of dirt

The sun w;is fiercely hot Monday,
but there was an occasional cool breeze
that made life tolerable, after all, indeed
quite comfortable at times.
The Columbus base ball club went

Tho Genoa's claim to bo tho cham
pion amateur base ball club of the state.
Our boys won't concede yet awhile and
cross bats with them Friday afternoon.
This is a game that will pay you to wit
ness. The average enrollment of tho Co
lumbus schools tho past year has been,
males, 217, females 213. Considering
that a largo number attend tho Catholic
school, this is a good enrollment for an
enumeration of 10!)7.
Gus. G. Becher fc Co. have made
arrangements with eastern parties to
furnish money in small or large sums to
those who call, on real estate security,
both city and country. Those who have
not time to call, can write; rates fur
nished on application. 14-3
Word received at this office last
week from "Fatty" Curtis, at Hamilton,
Minn., ordering his paper changed to
that address, would indicate that he was
in the employ of tho American Express
Co. at that place. He says the weather
is nice and cool up there.
Every pound of hay that can bo put
up in Nebniska will be in brisk demand
tho coming year as in the past, and now
is the time for the boys to put in their
best licks haying. Those who have to
buy new machines, who have muchgniss
to cut and more especially upland light
grass would do woll to consider tho
merits of tho wide-cut machino now on
the market.
Tho JnuitN'Aii has heretofore, as tho
Iniard took action, announced tho teach
ers ;is employed for the coining 6chool
year. Tho numlier is now complete,

places and Minnie M. Pollock succeeds
Miss Ida Martin as teacher in the Sec
ond ward primary. Katie Browner
teaches again in the suburban district.
A game of base ball is advertised for
Friday next between the Genoa and
home teams. This will probably be the
best game of tho season, as the nines
are very evenly matched. The street
cars run right to the grounds. Attend
the game and encourage tho home
team. The game will lie called sit 3
o'clock. A grand stand has been erect
ed on the grounds for the comfort of
those who like the shade, the benefit of
which costs only a small sum which goes
to pay expenses of the club.
About thirty of our citizens inter
ested in base ball accompanied the Co
lumbus team to Grand Island Sunday
hist, where quite a crowd witnessed the
gamo played in tho afternoon in which
our boys were defeated by a score of
10 to 10. Wo would like toseo tho home
team strengthen up a little and have tho
return games with the Grand Island and
Genoa clubs played on tho home grounds.
These games would doubtless draw large
crowds, and, being so evenly matched,
would prove highly interesting.
Tho Passenger Department of the
Union Pacific, "The Overland Route,"
has issued a neat little pamphlet, pocket
size, entitled "National Platform Book,"
containing the democratic, republican
and prohibition platforms, together with
the addresses of acceptance of Grover
Cleveland, Benjamin Harrison and Clin
ton B. Fisk; also tabulated tables show
ing tho plurality vote, tho electoral vote
and an analysis of the vole as cast for
Cleveland and Blaine in 18S4. This
book is just what is needed at this time
and should bo in tho hands of every
voter. It plainly sets forth what each
party has to offer and every reador can
draw his own comparisons. Sent to any
address on application. Address, J. S.
Tebbets, Gen'l Passenger Ag't, Union
Pacific Ry, Omaha, Neb.
Phil Jacobs, Nebraska salesman for
the Domestic Sewing Machine Co., was
in the city Thursday on business. (By
tho way, Mr. J. has a peculiarity that is
by no means common. An abscess took
away the right elbow joint. He has his
arm so arranged that he makes fair use
of it with an angle instead of an elbow,
and so that he can reach under his left
arm or to the back of his neck; he can
also writo a fair hand with the muscles
of the forearm, etc.) He has been over
a considerable portion of the state this
season from Benkleman, round up to
Chadron, and he says the rule is that
the crops are extra good in a few places
only had he heard of rust and chinch
bugs. Of the new quick towns he ever
came across, the most remarkable is
Alliance, Box Butte county. It was only
four months old on the 4th of July, yet
they had 75 store buildings and G more
under way, forty of these are two-story
structures, and one of these brick; there
are three banks and three newspapers;
the B. & M. R. Co. has the best depot
in Nebraska (outside of Lincoln), and
they have four miles of siding; on the
Fourth there were 3,000 people present
to celebrate. This is one of the towns
of the Lincoln Land Co.

was in the city a couple of days last
week and took a number of subscriptions
for his paper, which is doing good work
for the order throughout the west. He
visited Occidental lodge Wednesday
evening and made some interesting re
marks relative to the welfare of the
order.
Finally a tiraml Siu-ce-K.
Ho who makes two blades of grass
grow where but one grew before, is said
to be a benefactor of mankind, and so he
is; what, then, must be said of Al. Ar
nold who makes fish to grow in summer
time and ice to bloom in winter, where be
fore was but a desert waste, so to speak?
AI. is truly a missionary of the gospel of
thrift to this section of Nebraska, and
wo think that many will follow his ex
ample, at least so far as providing them
selves with fish ponds for their own
special benefit. Columbus is in the lead
on fish and ice, and it is no wonder that
other localities are looking up our en
terprises a little. The last Platte Center
Argus has this to say:
The Argus man had the pleasure of
visiting tho Columbus fish and ice ponds
a few days ago. He found two ponds
300 feet square, well stocked with thou
sands of black bass and carp which will
range in weight from to 1 pounds.
Tho ponds are replenished with the pur
est water, pumped by steam from a
gronp of 18 wells. The 2,000 tons of
pure well water ice which this company
put up last winter cannot near supply
the demand for it, and orders are now
already on file for twenty times more fish
than tho ponds can supply this fall.
Al. Arnold, the manager and largest
stockholder, in fact the spirit of the
company, informed us that another pond
600x300 feet would be added to the group
of lakes and much larger facilities for
handling ice would also bo provided
this fall.
Notwithstanding about 89,000 has been
invested in the institution under the un
tiring zeal and successful management
of Mr. Arnold it is a paying institution
and lays claim to being the finest pisca
tory in the state.
In an interview with C. J. Garlow,
Esq., who recently returned from a trip
to California, we learned the following
facts: The many stories regarding the
alleged "buret up" of some of the Co
lumbus people, residing there, are un
true; on the other hand, they are not all
millionaires as the other extremists
have it, but some of them have made
immense profits, which to the uninitiat
ed would hardly seem possible. The
boom is "off" at present in all parts of
the state, except the southern, where
property is still selling at fabulous
prices. Among other places visited
were San Diego, National City, and
Carlsbad, the homes of nearly all the
Columbus people, and Mr. Garlow in
forms us that he was in the houses of
nearly all of them; that they are doing
well, have plenty to eat, are nicel (yes
indeed, some of them gorgeously; axed,
so far as their homes are concerned, and
with very few exceptions, seem to be
happy; that he was treated with the
greatest kindness by all. He thinks
San Diego and National City are des
tined to be one immense city, and gives
reasons for it, and while property is con
siderably lower at present than a year
ago, he thinks it will go up again in
time. Much money is being expended
for public improvements. San Diego
has a grand hotel over five acres of
ground, and it is as fine as it is large.
Carlsbad has one that will cost, when
nnisnea, oeiween nrty ana sixty inous-
and dollars.
Tlie Coming Nebraska State Fair and Ex
position.
Secretary Furnas reports that responses and I
applications for accommodations for tho-next
Stato Fair are far in advance of any preceding
year to date; tliat more live stock btalls, pens,
and space for agricultural products have boon
engaged; more inquiries made and corresiond
ence generally more than doubled.
The season lias boon propitious for good crops
all over the wept. The iuiportunce of improved
breeds and sticcimens, of particularly homes and
cattle, never were so large. Tho feature of
county collective exhibits inaugurated by the
Nebraska fair management; the liberal premiums
of $750 offered therefor, together with iiermis
sion that individuals contributing to such col
lective exhibits, may with samo specimens, com
pete for any and all minor premiums, the en
couragement given new webtern count ies, and
particularly those west of the l(XHh meridian, all
contribute to awaken unusual aud lively inter
est. A renult is producers and breeders are vio
ing with each other in the true spirit of exiKwi
tions, who shall excel. Tlie fact that Nebraska
state fairs now rank all others has become no
torious, and all classes of exhibitors are coming
here to show what they have. Already large num
bers of entries are made, not only from our own
state, but from Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota, Wis
consin, Ohio, Indiana, New York, Mississippi
and Kansas. They seem to understand where it
pajs to exhibit.
The board is already convinced that all accom
modations will have to be near or quite doubled
in capacity, to meet demands now in sight. In
all this, it is the determination as heretofore,
that those who attend the Nebraska State fair,
either as exhibitors or visitors, shall lie cared for
in a manner as to return them to their homes
feeling their expectations and iuterests have
been more tlian gratilii-d and served.
If we aro to be blessed with the tine weather
which has characterized Nebraska state fairs at
Lincoln for the three years past, the next exio
sition will simply be colossal beyond present
comprehension. All has been done and will con
tinue to be done by the management to make
the coming state fair attractive in all resiiects
without precedent. Now then, let the ieople
arouse to their duty and attend, and see the won
derful products and resources of this wonderful
new west.
HNmarck Township.
Mat Volz has purchased a now thresh
ing machine.
Mrs. F. Karline has had n pump and
wind mill put in on her place.

dier. Rob's regiment will go to Fort
Kearney in September.
The neighbors are all busy harvesting
now; the wheat is all cut and now they
are laying the oats low. This promises
to be an average crop, being not so much
destroyed by the chinch bugs as the
wheat which was cut up pretty badly.
The bugs are in the corn now in count
less numbers, and causing it to dry out
somewhat. Chakles.

The Campaign Opened.
The republicans of the city had a very
enthusiastic meeting in tho City Hall
Saturday evening last, over which H. J.
Hudson presided and for which C. J.
Garlow acted as secretary.

lection of tho following officers: Presi

committee, Wm. Newman, J. G. Reeder,
Henry Lubker and C. E. Pollock.
One hundred and six dollars was sub
scribed as the nucleus of a campaign
fund; the very best spirit animated tho
crowd present, and appropriate remarks
were made by H. J. Hudson, A. M. Post
and Carl Kramer. The club propose
that some of the best political work 'ever
done in this neck of the woods bo ac
complished this fall.

Mr. A. Henrich has built a dam in his

Chinch bugs and rust have damaged
the small grain to somo extent and

There is talk of several threatening
sheriff sales around here. Now tho
the writer would say that only lazy or
dishonest men ought to be given into
tho hands of tho officers of the law, but
that industrious, honest men, but un
fortunate, ought to have all possibbo
leniency shown, as this surely would
prove tho best policy in tho end for all
concerned and especially for tho credit
ors too.
Tho littlo son of Mr. David Williams

Charles llriudley, ased iW 3 ears.
Father lirindlcy had lieen more or less ailing
for the past 3 ear, had lieen contiued'to his hou-
the past six weeks, and to his Uil the pa-t four.
He grew weaker and weaker until death came to
his relief.
Mr. I trim I ley was liorn in Marsiloii, England,
April 11th, l!!0, removed to America in 1S50, to
Nebraska in ls.17, locating first at Ceuoa, after
wards, in lsCl at Columbus, where he has since
resided.
Mr. llrindley nlwnss nt tended faithfully to
what w;lh. cut rusted to his care. Ever since the
organization of the Cemetery Association here,
nntil very recently, he had been sexton. For
twenty-three yean he iiad reterently, tenderly
prepared the hist resting place of many of our
beloved dead, anil recently while watching the
procession file by with the mortal remains of
John V. Early, he remarked to a friend that he
had dug many a grave ami hclied to bury 1113113-,
but he guessed his time to lie put awa3 was very
near at hand.
Mr. lirindlcy had many good qualities, among
them being a genuine good-will which was al
ways considerate of other's wishes; a kindly
humor, sparkling and bright, among his friends;
an honest purjioso to do right by everyliody and
withal a faithful, conscientious discharge of
his clnf-. Let us hojie that in that Land whither
he has gone, we may greet him some day, with
the old familiar smile. Peace to his memory
here.
Mr. llrindley leaves his faithful wife, his
daughters, Mrs. Samuel Cnlley of Creighton and
Mrs. C. A. Newman of this cit3 and his sons,
Ceorge, Hiram, Charles A. and Frank to mourn
-their irrejarable loss.
The funeral tsik place 3 esterday afternoon at
