While they were there the pile driver went over. Nobody hurt Saturday was "ground hog day" and the sun shone bright enough for him to see his shadow, so we shall probably have six weeks more winter, but if it continues as pleasant as at present, it will be very difficult to determine when spring commences, so far as weather is concerned. Heavy feeders of cattle among the farmers have nearly or altogether ex hausted their .own supply of corn and are buying of their neighbors. This will make a home market for corn that will save at least some time in the mar keting of it,! which, according to the adage, is money. Now is the time (any day) to sub scribe for the Journal, a local weekly paper and the Nebraska Family Journal, a state weekly paper, containing every week thirty-two columns of choice read ing matter, both for $2 a year, 'when paid in advance.

The West Point Republican has sug gested the formation of a base ball league to include Hastings, Grand Is land, Columbus, Fremont, West Point and Norfolk.

Gluck, C Kramer, Boyd and Abts, resulted in a fine against Seward for assault of $5.00 and costs, for which he went to jail in default of payment A large crowd was attracted to the cAoe by the nature ot the ease, and prurient curiosity wr.a not disappointed, from what we hear of the case. The family of Joseph Bivet, ex county commissioner, have been again afflicted, this time in the death ot Miss Amelia, at Denver, recently, ot heart disease. She was a very amiable young lady, aged about eighteen, and the be reaved family have the profound sym pathy of all their acquaintances. The body was laid to rest in St John's cem etery, Upper Shell Creek, on Tuesday of last week. The members of the Pioneer Hook and Ladder Company No. 1, are making extensive preparations for their 15th annual mask ball to be given at the Opera House, Feb. 22.

Wagner has gone to work in fine shape on the new Platte river bridge, and notwithstanding the difficulties, fifty piles have been driven, leaving ninety-four to be driven. They are said to be the best ever put down here as foundation for a bridge. Mr. Wagner has a force ot men at work and every thing will be pushed so that at the earliest practicable moment the new bridge will be available for travel. Mr. Wagner will put up a span in the city where everyone interested can see it, and test it to the complete satisfaction of all. When completed, we will have here the best wagon bridges in the state. A gentleman not long among us re marked the other day upon getting a piece of work from the Journal job rooms, that he was not aware that such fine work could be done here. The fact is that all through the western country, in young cities the size of Columbus, newspaper offices are as finely equipped for job work as many an establishment east of half a century's existence in cities of much larger pretensions. In nearly all lines of commercial and legal work we can print as well as they can any where, and when you have anything to do, let us, at least, figure on your work and tell you what we can da Readers of the Journal today will notice that there has been one death in the city from diptheria. At the time we write this paragraph this is the only case, either of sickness or death, not withstanding a rumor circulating about Platte Center that there had been five deaths here from the disease and many others expected. The Journal believes in telling the exact truth in all such cases hiding the truth always makes matters worse. How this one case orig inated is not known, but is supposed to have originated from visits ot friends from Platte Center. The beet precau tions known to medical scienoe will be taken, including such sanitary provisions as may be necessary. In last week's issue we urged the propriety of patronizing the job offices of the city with what work there is to do in that line, in preference to sending off, at a loss when quality of material, kind of work, express, eta, are considered. The Democrat copies our paragraph and adds: "Itisnt a question of simple re turn of patronage. But for your news paper your town would not be known beyond the corporate limits. Every issue is doing every citizen of the town in which it is published, good. It is working for the upbuilding ot its town, and there is a balance due it from every business man therefor, and the proper way for him to settle that bal ance is to patronize the paper. By re fusing to do so, you are getting that to which you are not entitled, viz, free ad vertising." There is a good deal in this, too, and it is something like a rival in business, instead ot having a place of his own, either by right ot ownership or by lease, in which to transact his buai neas, he goes to the premises of his com petitor and there solicits trade for him self. Itmnotaquesttonof theastouaf of work you have to do, but ot the spirit manifested in the placing ot it We be lieve, for instance, that our dry goods merchants, hardware dealers, grocers, efcx, can aad do aeH goods cheaper than the retail dealers of Omaha or Lincoln. They can buy as cheap and, having leas expense for rent, clerk hire, eta, they can afford to sell cheaper, and as a mat ter ot fact they do sell cheaper. Weaay this, the papers of the city, (at least the Journal ana Democrat), aiake a special ty ot publishing everything that will bear favorably upon trade and the printing of these tlnnga costs the papers good money all the time, but at the who are directly benefited by the i of tne ausepapera, wno do not to be ab4e to spprecistothefact As we said before they have not given itanyenccial thought UBderstandTthe UksyoaJ-ybegyou to coamdertae twauaad then do what you will is to the mutual bsasfit ot all Call to all earorti PERSONAL.

Schuyler, Feb. 5, 1889. Special to the Columbus Journal. At 3 o'clock this morning unknown' parties forcibly entered the court house, broke the locks off the cell wherein George Hagerman (the man who stole John Craig's horses and set fire to his bam, which consumed same and contents, including 130 head of horses, cattle and bogs) was confined, forcibly dragged him from his bed, took him to ajtree near by, and with a rope around his neck, tied him to an over hanging branch so he could just stand on the ground. He was shot in the right temple and killed. This morning he presented a terrible sight hanging there in his night-clothes, (the same nearly torn off him). The coroner cut him down and will hold the inquest today. The facts are as above stated. The job was done up quietly and no one seen no noise outside'the one revolver shot being heard. This is the second lynch ing and hanging in our court house yard lately, the first being the man Lepour who killed the sheriff in January, 1885. The sentiment here is that Hagerman got what he deserved, but the lynching is denounced by all. John C. Sprbcher. The Leap Bridge. From A. W. Clark we learn that last week Bridge Engineer Campbell came up from Council Bluffs and gave the bridge a very careful inspection, satisfy ing himself that the work had been done as the plans and specifications called for, in every particular. Aside from the for mal report of the inspector, the manner in which Mr. Wagner had fulfilled his duties as' representing the King Bridge Company, called for considerable com mendation on the part of Mr. Campbell. The committee, Messrs. B. H. Henry and Jonas Welch on the part of the city, and Mr. A. W. Clark on the partof the township, accepted the bridge. Mr. Clark gives the following items showing the cost: Bridge $38,000 00 Approaches 4,013 00 Plans and specifications 450 00 Survey 63 75 Total $42,726 75 Columbus may well congratulate her self, Vith Columbus township on the successful completion of so fine a struc ture to span one of the most unruly rivers of the state. Tae Taaiataa. JPiom present indications the new Thurston House will be opened to the public February 22d It was originally intended to open March 4th, but as the house will be completed sooner, the change of date was thought advisable. The carpenters and plumbers are done and the painters and grainers are rush ing their work with a full force. The upper floors are finished and the carpets are being hud. In conversation with a representative ot the Journal, Mr. Pol lock, the lessee, said that he was anxious to open the house as soon as possible. On the evening ot the opening a ball and banquet will be given, at which time the people ot Columbus will be given an opportunity to inspect this splendid building which is an. evidence of their thrift and enterprise.

Kelley and Haseon of the insane hospital and Dr. Bear, a well-known phy sician ot Norfolk, came to the conclusion that one Caroline Soulier, an employe in the kitchen ot the insane hospital, was afflicted with an ovarian tumor.'On the 10th ot January, after placing the pa tient under the influence of ether, they proceeded to make the customary opera tion for removal, but as soon as the peritoneum was cut through they saw that they had been mistaken in their diagnosis, that no tumor existed, but that the girl was pregnant The -wound was dressed; shortly afterwards a foetus about seven months old was born, and the third day from the surgical operation the patient died. The body was buried the next day. The whole matter was kept secret, until George Oliver, a col ored cook, who had been discharged the morning of the funeral, spread tho re port that Caroline had died of malprac tice. The excitement became so great that Coroner Long empanelled a jury, exhumed the remains, heard the testi mony of Dre. Taahjean and Long (after examining the body) and found a verdict to the effect that the doctors intended no injury to the deceased girl, though Tashjean unhesitatingly declared his belief that the girl had died from pre mature child birth induced by tho ope ration. He also testified that he had examined the deceased in December and satisfied himself that she was pregnant arid had told her his belief. .The"Nbrfolk News, from which we condense, says that on Friday Inst, Kel ley was arrested, charged with murder. When he arrived in charge of an officer the crowd went wild. Kclloy waived examination and was placed under $3,000 bonds to appear at the spring term of the district court, Messrs. Roinbolt, Mc- Clary, Hays, Schwenk aud Eisely signing the bond as sureties. When Kelley started home in charge of the officer, the crowd made a rush toward him, yelling in German "Hang him! hang Mm!" Peter Schwenk placed himself beside Kelley, and drawing a revolver, wurned the crowd to stay back. Kelley then entered a buggy- and was driven away. Warrants will be issued, says tho News,' for the arrest of Hasson and Bear. We know nothing of Kelley or Hasson, but Bear has had an extensiro practice and has, so far as we -know, been a phy sician without reproach. It does seem that the doctors could not well escape on a plea of ignorance of the true nature of the case. City Conucil. The council met in regular session Saturday, Feb. 2d. The mayor appointed council men Gluck and Fitzpatrick ns members of the board of health. A report from the city attorney was read as follows: To the mayor and council of tho city of Columbus: Replying to your ques tion concerning the power of tho city council to lease a portion of one of the public streets of the city, I havo'to say that such leasing for an elevator site is so entirely foreign to tho purposes for which the city is vested with the title to streets that in the absence of an explicit authority for such leasing I am of tho opinion thatj the powerdoes not exist.
