Jonas Headman last week killed on
his farm an enormous garter snake, the
reptile measuring about five feet in
length. It had with it a large litter of
young which, when disturbed, in accord
ance with a time-honored and ancient
custom, scooted down the parent's throat
The big snake, in the interest of science,
was dissected by Jonas, and from its
internal regions he snaked fifty-six little
snakies from two. to three inches in
length. Jonas avers it is the biggest
"case of snakes'' ever known in his va
ried experience. (Genoa Leader.
The Sisters' Hospital has become
quite an institution for the state; the
good work it is doing is very highly ap
preciated. The following, from the
Leigh Advocate ia one of the many in
stances where its value becomes known:
"W. L Walling went to Schuyler Mon
day to see the county commissioDerB in
regard to moving old man Adkua to the
hospital at Columbus. The board au
thorized Mr. Walling to make the neces
sary arrangements. This will be much
better for all concerned as the old gen
tleman ia unable to be around and
completely helpless. In the hospital he
will have all needed care and oversight''
The Bev. Griswold in his Sunday
morning sermon took occasion to cry
shame on the reckless disregard of Sab
bath ia Columbus. The offscouring of
neighboring towns ought to be taught
to respect decent peoples' views of the
enforcement of law, but our statesmen
seem to have held the opinion that a
town or county should be independent
of the United States, and the state, as
there is no provision for rospnaaibility,
of oncers for the fulfilment of the law
respecting their duties,- but it will come,
when a man can be as sure cm protection
in his rights at home, as ia Ireland, or
aay other foreign coaatry. Loelnag

At the citizens meeting Friday even
ing Bert Arnold illustrated by a well

pleted for a water power canal for the
city, aa heretofore described in The
Journal. J. N. Heater, who has had
large experience as a hydraulic engineer
and knows exactly what he ia talking
about on that subject, followed Mr.
Arnold and fully explained the plans
proposed. The estimated cost is $55,000
and a committee consisting of Jonas
Welch, G. W. Galley, C. C. Miller, J. P.
Becker and J. E. North, was appointed
to canvass the matter thoroughly and
report at an early Ly.
The record in the assignment of a
judgment from McMahon & OToole to
J. M. Macfarland, as made on the record
in the office of the clerk of the district
court has been found to be mutilated
by the erasure' of the signature of Mc
Mahon & OToole. There ia a dispute
between Macfarland and McMahon (for
merly attorney and client), as to the
consideration of the assignment, which
will probably be settled at the end of a
law suit The mutilation of the record
is a very serious offence, a misdemeanor
punishable by a fine of $300 and impris
onment in the county jail three months.
No condemnation can be too severe for
thus tampering with the records.
Though in this case it may work no
special harm to any one, the offence is
of such a nature that it should not go
without an effort to bring the offender,
whoever he may be, to punishment
The Blue Grass Palace at Creston,
la., ia to be 100x100 feet and 120 feet
high and decorated inside and out with
all the different grasses and cereals of
southwestern Iowa. Each of the eighteen
counties comprising the league have a
booth in the palace. This is but one of
many important features of the exposi
tion. The secretary has sent us a pres
sing invitation to be present We
are not sure yet but we will
have to stay at home nearly all the time,
(August 22 to September 7), to thresh
our flax on sunny days, but we have no
tified the president and secretary to have
the fair go right along anyway; they
seem to have all preparations readyand
why should they delay simply because
we are not there? It would hardly be
right to disappoint the other people.
Send us a bunch of alfalfa and well per
petuate the memory of the palace by
planting it in Nebraska soil.
"A few weeks ago J. Chollette sent
to this office a fine specimen of- alfalfa
and last Monday morning he sent in two
more samples, one of the second and one
of the third crop on the same ground.
The second crop sample measured 2
feet and the third crop 2j feet in height
This is a wonderful growth and recalls
to our mind the efforts of Hon. Moses
Stocking during the latter years of his
life to persuade the farmers of this coun
ty that it would pay them to raise alfalfa.
Mr. Chollette also sent in a sample of
millet which measured 4t feet in height
with heads of seven or eight inches. On
behalf of the agricultural society, we
would request Mr. Chollette to cut a few
sheaves of his millet and alfalfa and tie
them up nicely and cure them in the
shade that they may have them for the
state fair exhibit'' The above ia from
the Wahoo Wasp, and if Saunders coun
ty can do so well, so can Platte and all
the others. Nebraska seems destined
to become the model stock country.
Timber is fast becoming abundant or
chards are not uncommon, tame grass is
no longer a novelty, and alfalfa is a dem
onstrated success. Will-not the Wasp
ask Mr. Chollette to give the particulars
of this crop? Whether old ground; rich;
bottom or table land, preceding crop,
preparation of land, etc More than
usual significance is to be given this
fact, because the clovers are moat excel
lent for stock and for preserving the
fertility of the soil. They also tend to
deepen the sed-bed, and than make a
reservoir for the storing of the moisture
that falls upon the land. The men who
give attention to these matters deserve
well of their fellow farmers, aad retired
farmers of Nebraska, who have spent the
best years of their lives oa their farm
and gained a competency could not pass
the time more agreeably than in making
common-sense experiments and giving
valuable suggestions from their abund
ant experience to th younger men who
are now doing the heavy work. He who
shows us how to make three blades of
grass grow where only one grew before,
or how by Nature's own uisiiiia to sub
soil our land, or how to have one man do
the work of two or three, has done a
service we will not be alow to appreciate.
The newspapers of Nebraska are always
ready to print such articles aad iad to
get them, besaaao none know better
than the editors that the solid founda
tion of our prosperity ia the agricultural
aad stock-growing' iatereat; build ap,

The atmosphere has been unusually
hazy throughout the month, doubtless
owing to the smoke from, the burning
forests of Montana, as the appearance
was very similar in its effects to that
produced by the volcanic eruption in
the Indian ocean some two years since.
The storm of the 13th was accompa
nied by the most violent wind we have
known in our valley at this season of the
year, leveling the grain and prostrating
chimneys and wind mills; about 8 miles
northwest of this station it was devel
oped into hail which wrought wholesale
destruction throughout its path in the
neighboring county of Boone.
Dress.
Do we, who are "the salt of the earth,"
"the light of the world," realize how im
portant it is that we do not go to the ex
treme of fashion in dress, but that we
adorn ourselves with " modest apparel,"
which is far more becoming to our pro
fession? Service and comfort should be
the first objects in view when we make
our garments, instead of this, fashion
and display are the chief objects sought
by many of us who profess to be Christ
ians! "Be not conformed to this world,"
is a divine injunction: will we heed it?
If wo dressed plainly, many poor people
who are seldom or never seen in the
house of God, would attend church, and
at all social gatherings where we meet
them, they would not feel so ill at ease
in.our presence. Many of the wisest
and beet men who ever lived, have been
poor in this world s goods, and we ought
not be proud of our wealth, or of fash
ionable or costly drees, but rather pon
der upon our own individual responsibil
ity to God and to our fellow men, bear
ing in mind that Christ said, "learn of
me; for I am meek and lowly in heart"
