Mike Wagner has earned here quite
a reputation as a bridge builder, and
will be a formidable competitor in this
section for that class of work. TTia
bridges here over the Loup and the
Platte are good samples of his work.
The Columbus Lyceum gave a very
pleasant entertainment at Fitzpatrick's
hall last Saturday evening. The house
was comfortably filled, the program
carried out as published, and the Lyce
um cleared a snug sum with which to
replenish their treasury.
The authorities desire it to be
thoroughly understood by everybody
that the law fixes a penalty of $5 for
driving over bridges faster than a walk
and that extra pains will be taken to
strictly enforce this law against all
violators of it, on the Loup bridge.
W. A. Burnette, agent of Spitzer &
Co., of Toledo, O., purchased the $18,000
bridge bonds at 95c, and $10,000 water
bonds at 97c, from the city last Satur
day. These bonds were issued some
months ago to bridge the Platte river
and extend the water mains of the city.

We are in receipt of a copy of Band,
McNally & Co.'s new pocket map of
Nebraska, just issued. It is one of the
most convenient of maps and no one
need be more than a moment in finding
any place marked, the direction being so
complete. For a pocket map we know
no better.
Wherever the plow goes the cloud
seems to follow. Colorado people, who
have always depended on irrigation to
raise their crops, are fearful of the com
ing season, because there has been no
snow in the mountains. It may be that
this is the beginning of their rainfall.
Who can tell?
Henry Zinnecker has purchased his
brother's barber shop and bath rooms
on 12th street and has re-papered and
painted it, and has as neat a place as
there is in town. Lou Zinnecker has
taken charge of the Thurston barber
shop. We wish both the young men
success in their undertakings.
A young man named Cleveland, em
ployed on the farm of Pat. Murray, had
his hand caught in a corn-crusher one
day last week. He came to town where
Dr. Schug gave it the necessary medical
attention. Though badly crushed, it is
thought he will not lose the hand. An
other young man, whose name we did
not learn, had his arm broken by falling
from a load of hay on the samevfarm.
Tuesday last Drs. Martyn & Schug
took from the right leg of Geo. Clother
a fatty tumor weighing three pounds
and having a fearful look. The tumor
attached to the bone, which had to be
scraped clean. George has pluck. With
out taking any anaesthetic, he laid on his
face, shut his mouth and gritted his
teeth. Dr. Schug says it was wonderful
how quiet he kept, under the operations
of the knife. The tumor had been form
ing for a number of years.
The Falls City Journal says that
several of their business men have iden
tified the jewelry thieves arrested here,
as being seen on the streets there the
day of the robbery. We learn that
Charles Taylor will have to appear as a
witness in the case again this week.
P. W. Henrich purchased a gold pen of
one of the parties which the latter claim
ed he secured from his sister. If he did
not, this fact alone will form a strong
point against him. Mr. Henrich will
probably go as a witness.

The JomoAX, time and again, has
called attention to the justice and the
business good sense of patronizing home
industries and home merchants. In thk
same catalogue come the business agents
who live here, and there are several of
them. They spend here a goodly portion
of what salaries they receive from the
houses that employ them, and it would
be like helping ourselves if our business
men, in the lines represented by resi
dents here, would occasionally, at least,
hunt them up and place an order with
them. They, naturally enough, have a
pride in getting good business from their
own town, but we fear, from what we
have heard lately, that some of them, at
least, have had little encouragement
here, and through no fault of their own
or the houses they represent. The fol

Charlie Morse had a letter last week

AL Arnold would start in an hour for
the new gold fields, which are in Lower
California, about eighty miles south of
National City.. The acooants given

Union are wonderful. -On two days re
cently three aktera took out $700 in

gold taken right out of the dry ground

The citkews of Colantbas are now
fully ahve to the situation of things aad
are preparing to make Cohuabua what
it ought to be one of the beat aaaaa
faetariag town west of Omaha. Our
Board of Trade and its energetic presi
dent, L. Gerrard, are fairy aware of the
wants of the city in the line of pubHc
imnroTementa, and hare a number of
good things in that way, under advise
asent, which win be brought before the
people at the proper time.
Since securing the location of the
Gilt Edge Manufacturing Company here
they have turned their attention to the
need of water power and the small effort,
coaaparatively, that could secure it. The
subject k not a new one by any meana,
bat it has been taken up thk time with
a different spirit, one that means busi
ness, and one that will posh the matter.
There k no doubt bat Columbus has
the finest chance for' water power in'
the state, in the Loup river. The pro
posed scheme to build a canal from the
Loup near Oconee, has now been revived
and promises to amount to something
more in the end than it has heretofore.
A civil engineer will be engaged to
make surveys, estimate on the probable
cost, etc. If the project k carried out,
(and there k every indication that it will
be) the population will increase as man
ufacturing industries come, the price of
real estate will be doubled up time and
again, and all lines of trade very greatly
benefited.
As one of our oldest and best citizens
remarked: MColnmbus most have the
water power, and what's more will have
it."
The meeting of the Platte County
Teachers' Association at the High
School last Satarday, was well attended
bat not so well as should be. 3 Some
thing over forty teachers out of ninety
two responded to the roll call The ex
ercises were of an interesting character
and were heartily joined in by a good
number of those present. The discus
sion of Mks BansdaU's remarks on
primary reading was especially attract
ive and valuable. Messrs. Carr and
Dieffenbach, and Tedrow, and Misses
Pollock, Weaver and Strothers took
part in the discussion. The debate was,
as always, both entertaining and in
structive. Besides the regular exercises
the Misses Grace Geer and Clara Wea
ver gave each a fine recitation, and Miss
Flora Gleason several fine pieces of vo
cal and instrumental music. Miss Alice
Turner presided at the organ. The su
perintendent La doing good work in thk
direction and hk efforts should be
heartily seconded by teachers and school
patrons. The next meeting will be held
in Platte Center the second Saturday of
April.

Considerable excitement was caused
last Thursday morning about 7 o'clock
by an alarm of fire. Smoke issuing from
the basement of Hickok, Halm & Co.'s
grocery store was the cause of the com
motion. It was found that a box of
straw in which crockery had been
shipped had taken fire in some unac
countable way. The Hose company
were promptly on hand and soon had
the fire extinguished without much
damage being done.
A small barn on the premises of A.
Dussell caught fire last Saturday and
would have burned, had it not been for
the timely application of a few buckets
of water. The Hose Companies and
Hook & Ladder Co. were on hand. The
loss was not heavy.

Nothing has been done since our last

gentlemen who are at the head of the
institution were here last week and said
that work would be commenced on the

few simple directions for the care of
health, and mentioned aa one instance:
If water were boiled, say each evening,

its impurities, aad greatly conduce to

As a gentleman was riding along
east Thirteenth street on Sunday morn
ing he waa struck on the forehead by,
it k supposed, a stone from a sling. Hk
first thought was that it was a bullet, as
it came with such force as to cause a
wound under the far cap which it struck.
Had it struck on the bare temple or an
eye the consequences might have been
serious. Boys engaged in thk sport are
liable to arrest.
The Farmers' elevator k now com
pleted. It k a model building for con
venience, with a capacity of 11,500
bushels. It was opened ap for business
march 4, and claims to be the first
boildtng in Nebraska to float a flag with
the four new stars added. There has
been shipped from thk point, to date,
18,000 bushek of corn and five car loads
of hogs. There was received Friday 40
loads of corn and 15 of hogs. Pretty
good for a town one month old.

The first fruits of our saloon blossom
ed Thursday. Four wagons caxie in
town from the Connor ranch with four
horses each, to carry home the seed
wheat which Mr. C. had purchased. In
stead of attending to their business they
not only filled their sacks at the elevator
but themselves at the saloon, then see
ing the Koester & Myers auction going
on, they went in there, one of them mak
ing a purchase which, when it was called
off to him, he refused, using most foul
and impudent language to the sheriff.
Refusing to leave or be quiet they were
arrested after a severe struggle in which
one of the men was knocked down and
hurt, they were carried to 'Squire Clark's
office and promising to go home quietly
were dismissed. They got into their
wagons and starting the horses into a
run headed for home, they drove just
out of town, when "rum being in and
wit out" they turned around and drove
back into town at a furious rate, en
dangering every team and wagon on
the street, using the vilest language and
yells. Finding they intended doing
mischief, the sheriff again arrested them,
locking them in a box car at the station.
The sheriff received two kicks from one
of the men, but nothing serious. At
evening they were fined $25 and costs
and sent home "wiser if not better men."
If the sheriff had not been in town they
could have made it a scene of terror.
The lovers of the prosperity of the town
in urging the bringing of the saloon
here, said it would add so much to the
business of the place. I wonder how
they like the fruit? Last week a sad
faced woman was in the stores waiting
for her husband, who could not be per
suaded to leave the saloon for hours, and
when he started, and for several miles
out, he was seen driving at a furious
pace, pitching from side to side as
though he would fall out, endangering
hk own and hk wife's life for the good
of the town bah!
Our farmers are moving in the right
direction. Some of them have formed
a company, and purchased a splendid
Percheron-Norman stallion. 3 years old,
weighing 1900 pounds. Thk is as it
should be. It costs no more to raise
that kind of colts than the common
ones. R F. Graham and A. Alderson
also purchased one of the same kind and
a thoroughbred mare. In a few years
Creston horses will be in demand, a.
gmsituss jotites.
