At the meeting Monday of the

"Advertising pays," so says the
newspaper world, and so says everybody.
"A man in Dakota advertised for a house
and the very next day a cyclone came
and blew a whole brick block over on
him." This may be regarded as a fair
sample of Nebraska newspaper humor

wind, indeed, that blows nobody good,"
for what is good for nothing else, may
serve as an item for the paragrapher.
Friday last J. Binning and Herman
Herring fell into a dispute over the di

they had rented from their neighbor,
C. H. Sheldon. Herring, it is said, beat
Mr. Binning most unmercifully. Her
ring is a young man, and has served a
term in the penitentiary, for shooting at
yonug Ijucjd, nis crime tne result oi
giving way to his temper. If he suc
ceeds in getting out of this scrape with
out another term in the state's prison it
should be a warning for life to him to
govern his temper. Sheriff Bloedorn
went after Herring Saturday, but could
not find him.
For three successive nights last
week same miscreant visited the dwel

money is kept on the premises; Mrs.
Hensley says there are no valuables,

ers were endeavoring to get Mr. Hens
ley away from the post office, where he
sleeps, so that they could rob the mails.
One night a man came to the windows

The Omaha Bee of yesterday has
this editorial reference to Platte coun
ty's treasurer, Gus G. Becher: "The
farmers and taxpayers of Platte county
are to be congratulated upon having a
phenomenal county treasurer. He has
voluntarily paid into the treasury a sur
plus of fees collected. The good ex
ample of Platte county's treasurer
should be followed without delay by the
treasurers of every county in Nebraska.
For it follows as an axiom that what is
true in Platte county is likely to be true
of other counties, and the people may
wake up all along the line to demand an
investigation of the records."

Pacific trains over these tracks. The
Chicago roads are in a wrangle over the
running of trains to this city to connect

outcome will be that all will resume fast

Bill Nye's description of the Platte
river is not so bad, for a humorist: "The
Platte river is a queer stream. It has a
very large circulation, but very little in
fluence. It covers a good deal of ground,
but is not deep. In some places it is a
mile wide and three-quarters of an inch
deep. It has a bed of quicksand which
triiYr- it very mack in drowning people.
The Platte makes very little fuss about
it, but succeeds in being quite fatal.

Joseph H. Smith will receive horses
and cattle to pasture at the Rickly
Brothers ranch, between the Loup and
Platte riven. The ranch ia supplied
with an abundance of spring, and river
water, plenty of shade, and any amount
of good grass. Stock will be taken in
any numbers, horses at 75 cents a head
per month, cattle, under 10 head at 35
cents a head, over 10 head at 25 cents s
head. They will be liberally supplied
with salt and receive the best of care.
The statement in last week's Jouksai

at their ranch, was a mistake, as Mr.

BNaurck Township.
The neighbors are still handling plows
in a lively manner.
Fred Karline has been doing some
plowing for Otto Mueller and T. M.
Wilson.
George Hotlel purchased a gang plow
last week with which he is doing excel
lent work.
J. H. Crann commenced planting corn
on the 2d and several of the other neigh
bors are about ready to begin the same
exercise.
QGeorge floJel has purchased forty
bushels of ti;ix which he was sowing last
week, he also sold another of his fat
steers to Rickly Bros.
Miss Belle Montana of Schuyler is
visiting at present with .1. C. Swartaley'a
family on the ridge.
Louis Nouenburg has finished his gar
den fence which gives his place a very
creditable appearance.
Mrs. T. M. Wilson was very ill last
week from an attack of neuralgia but is
at present quite recovered.
We almost forgot it, but we will now
announce that John McGilL. jr., was also
taking a buggy ride ou a corn planter
the other day and seemed to be enjoying
it very well considering the large
amount of real estate which he was
obliged to carry along with him, on
account of the activity of the wind.
Frank Luchsinger has been having a
a neat addition with a stone foundation,
built to bis dwelling house which im
proves its appearance greatly; he has
also enlarged his cellar and has walled
it up with brick. Who says this section
of Nebraska is not improving? If any
one doubts it let him come to see for
himself and be will soon be convinced
that it ia a fact and not a myth.
Bond Overseer T. M. Wilson has been
repairing Sheldon's bridge recently and
it needed it badly, having three planks
broken, which was probably done by
some careless driver, who, driving the
wheels of his wagon over a small hole
broke the adjoining planks out. It is
now entirely covered with new planks
and we think the traveling public will
appreciate this fact.
T. M. Wilson has been seeding down a
piece for pasture with timothy and red
clover seed; we think this will make
good grass for pasture as the timothy
being the quicker growing grass, affords
feed for stock until the clover obtains a
good start, when it will kill out the
timothy and thus make a permanent
and excellent pasture. Chaklbs.
