E. D. Fitzpatrick returned last week

very large line of goods. He is seriously
considering our suggestion that he begin

such facilities for purchasing everything
in his line that he can duplicate Chicago
wholesale prices to retail dealers who
may honor him with their orders. He is
too modest by half in reaching out after
wholesale customers.
MissAlmena Parker gave a recital
at the Opera House Thursday evening.
The house was crowded, and we never
saw a more appreciative audience. Miss

ist Her personation of Mrs. McWill

bling was perfect enough to deceive the
birds themselvea The Arion Glee Club
rendered some very nice music, and Miss

Willard Chapin writes from Sheri
dan county to a friend that on the 7th of
August they had a frost which de
stroyed all that the hail 6torm of a week
before had left, which was literally
nothing. The hail fell very, thick and
fast and many of the stones were as
large as hen's eggs. Twenty miles west
of Mr. Chapin's the storm was so severe
that the ribs of cattle on the range were
broken by the hail stones, and potatoes
in the ground were so beaten and
bruised as to be worthless.
At a special meeting of the board of
trade last Wednesday evening W. F.
Griffith of Omaha endeavored to secure
the adoption of a petition by the board
asking the state board of transportion
to rescind their order for fifteen percent
reduction of freight rates by the rail
roads. Mr. G. claimed to be acting in
the general interests of Nebraska, and
that the rate was so low that it would
effectually retard the further building of
roads in this state. L. Weaver moved
that no action be taken on the subject
by this meeting. J. E. North thought
that the sentiment of those present
not represent that of the shippers of the
city. The motion was carried unani
mously. If there had been a full meet
ing of the board there might have been
considerable music. Mr. Griffith is a
smooth talker, and seems well informed,
but we imagine that there are some
questions touching his mission that
would have been difficult for him to an
swer with entire satisfaction.

Institute Notes.
The enrollment at the Teachers' Insti
tute reached one hundred and two on
Tuesday morning of this week. Instead
of lagging in interest as the days go by,
there has been kindled an enthusiasm
which increases day by day. The attend
ance has been large and the work of the
highest order.
Prof. Knepper never loses' interest He
has so systematized his experiences and
observations that in every branch of
work his advice is good and extremely
practical at every point
Miss Parker closed her work in ad
vanced reading last week, and Miss
Lease takes the time with primary read
ing, in which she excels. Miss Lease
has won the highest regard of the teach
ers, especially those who will enter the
work for the first time this fall.
The superintendent has managed ev
ery detail with care and careful regard
for the claims and interests of all classes
of our teachers, and his work has met a
hearty approval and a co-operation high
ly gratifying. The schools will be bene
fited, no doubt, in a large degree by his
efforts.
The number of visitors has been un
usually large and the outside interest
manifested shows that the influence of
the institute is not confined to the walls
of the building.
Tuesday morning Mr. Welch of Oma
ha, the inventor of tho system of school
reports, came to the institute and ex
plained, in an interesting manner, his
system of classification.
On Wednesday general sessions will be
held, nnd conferences on local topics,
such as grading, teachers' township and
county meetings, etc, will be canvassed.
Base Ball Notes.
Wednesday the North Bend boys vis
ited Columbus and defeated our club by
score of 12 to 8. Inability to hit the
ball and fielding errors lost the game to
the Columbus boys.
Saturday the Jetter & Young club of
South Omaha played the Columbus club
on the Columbus grounds and defeated
our nine by a score of 17 to G. Hughes,
the pitcher of the Jetter & Youngs prov
ed a puzzler to the Columbus boys.
ColumbuB couldn't solve Hughes's
curves and were easy victims. On the
other hand the Omahas hit Finecy at
critical times and won with hands down.
The Jetter & Youngs went from Co
lumbus to Grand Island and were de
feated there by a score of six to one.
The Omaha boys blame their defeat to
the Umpire.
The Jetter & Youngs played the Ge
noa team Monday and were defeated by
a score of 3 to 2. Backus of the Colum
bus nines played second base for the
Omaha nine.
Today a nine composed of teachers of
the county and others will play the Co
lumbus club. The game will be close
and exciting and will be called at 4
o'clock. In the evening a dance will be
given in the Opera House. The Colum-
bus orchestra will furnish the music
The Omaha boys say that Finecy is
the swiftest base runner they have met
this season.
Masical and Literary.
An entertainment is to be given this
(Wednesday) evening at the M. E. church,

the Arion singing societies; MissAlmena
Parker, the noted elocutionist of Fre
mont, kindly assists, also Mrs. McKinnie
of St Joseph, Miss Stockdell, Miss Mor
rison, Miss Anderson and the Misses
Turner. The entertainment will easily
be worth a good deal more than the.
price of admission, which is 25 cents.

A Canning Factory.
Tho Journal can mention twenty men
within fivo miles of its sanctum, all of
whom havo large tracts of land, are good
business men and who could safely
manage a 810,000 canning factory. Why
not, then, organize a company to get
ready for business next year? It will at
onco treble the rental of your land and
enhance tho selling price, besides bring
ing you a handsome per cent on the
money yon may invest. There are sev
eral such institutions in Nebraska and
they all pay. The entire product can be
contracted beforehand. What's tho
matter with Columbus that she can't
have a canning factory?
