JSS Oar faithful correspondent at Pales tine writes us that there is no news of importance this week. La grippe still has a hold in that community.

PLATTE COTJHTY BAXK.Platta Camtra, Kaa, Brothers Bixby of the Sentinel and Barlier of the Fullerton Journal are not displaying that brotherly affection that is liecoming to editors in this portion of Nebraska. The world is wide enough for two, at least. - -L. H. Webb has bought Geo. Leh man's share in the Grand Pacific hotel. He intends to close out his dry goods store immediately. We learn that Mr. Lehman will enter npon some other business in the city. Three new cases entered in the dis trict court are H. C. Newman and G. W. Elston, also Ella Newman, likewise Phil lip Schroeder, administrator, v Platte county, apiieal from decision of county tioard in location of a road.

The embalming of the body for shipment to America cost $500. Those wishing to subscrilie for the World-Herald either with or without premium, can do so at this office. The premium distribution takes place March 20th, 1890. It is one of the very liest weekly papers in the west one year, with premium $2.00, without premium Sim tf -The Pythian Light Guards will hold their annual meeting for the election of officers on Tuesday evening, February 4, at which meeting Capt, Saner requests a full attendance of the memliers. Under efficient management of Capt. Saner the past year, the boys have become very proficient, in their drilling. The jewelry house of F. Hrodfeiihrer is in the hands of creditors whose claims amount to some $4,000, caused mainly by the fact that he had accommodated friends by signing their, notes, which he had to make good. All his acquaintanc es hope that some way may be found for him out of his financial straits. If Columbus did not secure the lo cation of the State Fair the next five years, she and her successful competitor, Lincoln, were the only places in the state whose claims ought to have lieen considered by the state, the only places guaranteeing what the tioard required. This fact places Columbus in goodshnpe for the succession another time. - E. Corbin of Grand Island, passed through the city Monday to Platte Center. He showed us a portion of the fossils found by him, at. a depth of twenty-four feet, while digging a well for the Union Pacific tit Pine Bluffs. One of them is part of the head of a rhi noceros. It is certainly an interesting collection to those who love to study nature. If any one knows of a lietter paying business than that of raising chickens, he ought to give the particulars of it. Mary E. Gregory of St, Paul, this state, says: "From eighty-seven laying hens, I sold in the last twelve months, 4,015 eggs, which brought me $35.93; I also hatched out two hundred and thirty-four chickens, besides using a great many eggs on the table. If anybody can beat this let us hear from them." A check for $641.10 was cashed for a stranger at noon yesterday at the State Bank, while Mr. Gerrard was at dinner. The check purported to be signed by W. T. Rickly and was a good imitation of his hand-write, and there was nothing suspicions about it except the difference in ink used from the or dinary. On beiug shown to Mr. Rickly, it was found he had not drawn such a check. The criminal had not been ap prehended when we went to press. We print elsewhere a communication from a valued correspondent upon a subject not commonly under discussion in secular papers. The position taken that the Devil possesses the same power for evil that God does for good, seems hardly consistent with another assertion that in the creation, life and death of Christ, God "scored a victory over the Devil," except on the basis of another assertion, viz: "The fact is we do not un derstand or comprehend our position." We are in receipt of a table of anal ysis of sugar beets raised in different sections of Nebraska the past season, from the state bureau of labor and in dustrial statistics; it makes a good show ing for Nebraska, and the bureau prom ise that in their biennial report they will give a full and exhaustive history of the cultivation aud manufacture of sugar from beets, as regards soil, seed, cost and profit, kind of implements to be used in the cultivation, machinery need ed in manufacturing, cost of same, also much valuable information for the farm er and manufacturer. A New Eatersrbe. Charles Siegenthaler went east Mon day morning to secure the necessary ma chinery, and, in connection with John Miller of this city, will shortly open a wooden shoe factory in Columbus. Be sides the similar establishment of Lntz & Co., in this city, we are informed that there is only one other such in the United States and that is located at Davenport, la. The present establish ment has orders, so we are told, far in excess of their ability to supply, and will doubtless enlarge their capacity. The new firm expects to employ thirty or forty hands, and also to put a new, cheap and very desirable article on the market, a patent of Mr. Siegenthaler's. We wish both establishments the success they deserve. The old one has done very much for the city in the way of advertis ing it from Maine to California, and from Washington to Florida, and bring ing here money from abroad to lie in vested here. The new one, (as all classes of manufactories does) will do likewise, thus adding to the successful enterprises of the city. Let every man encourage every home manufacture, so from the nucleus of small establishments, im provements can lie made, the plants en larged as the business grows, and we shall soon liave in this city a good nest of valuable industries which will make this one of the best manufacturing cen ters in the west. At the current term of the district court, a case was decided in favor of Mr. Nelson, involving the payment of a note given originally to Cole, Grant & Co., some two years ago, and known ordi narily as the patent wire fence swindlers. They had negotiated the note of course, but the verdict of the jury was against the holder of the same. There are so many swindling devices these days that some means ought to be sought out to circumvent rogues who travel the coun tuy over. The thoughtful, well-to-do and well informed citizens owe it to the community at large to protect their fel low citizens from sharpers as much as possible, and the just banker who will devise a way to lessen and mitigate the great evils resulting from notes taken by sharfiers, through deceit aud fraud, ami without adequate or, in many cases, any compensation, will be considered a great public benefactor. Frank Stupfel, Louis Kerschen and a lad named Siegenthaler had a pretty narrow escape yesterday morning. In W. T. Rickly's meat wagon they were going to the slaughter-house, Frank driving, when Kerschen grabbed the lines from his hand, and the horses, turning short to one side, overturned the wagon, throwing Stupfel and Siegen thaler to the ground between the horses, each of them being kicked on the head, lying unconscious and all bloody for a little while, the horses meantime running off, but being caught by Willie Rickly before doing any further damage. Stup fel came to consciousness first and thought that Siegenthaler was killed, he looked so much like a dead man. Ker schen was not hurt and walked off without even looking to see what had liecome of his comrades. No liones broken. Visit the schools. It will prove to your children that you take more than a passing interest in their progress in learning. You will learn something, yourself, no matter how well posted you may think yourself. Yon will see what arrangements have been made for the comfort of the children, and how well the teacher is doing her duty, and you will see the importance of yourself giv ing more of your time and attention to the education of your children, and, after nil, what, is there that is of more importance to yon and to them? Help the children to help themselves. - Take all stumbling-blocks ont of their way, and give them free course. Visit the schools, occasionally at least. Whatever papers you take, don't fail to subscrilie for and read as many home papers as you can afford to pay for. They are all worth four or five times their cost, as yon will find to your sor row by discontinuing them. You get the local markets, the advertisements of dealers with bargains, the proceedings of the courts, the county lioard of super visors, the transactions of the state and national legislatures when in session, the current news all around, and an array of miscellaneous literature unequalled any where else for the same amount of mon ey. You can do without the London Times or the New York Herald, but yon cannot, with safety and profit, dispense with your local paper. Real Estate Ileal. For the week ending Jan. 25th, 1890.

Important, if true. Hyaeaeal. From the Tama (Iowa) Herald, we clip the following, which will be interesting to the numerous readers of The Jour nal, many of"whom have already spoken their congratulations to the happy couple: Tama society was conscious of but one event last week. Dainty weddiajr cards exqninite specimen of the gravers' art had announced that on the evening of Thursday, the 16th inst., Mr. J. A. Barber, of Columbus, Neb., would be joined ia matrimonial bonds to Miss May K. Brice, of this city. Both the social and business prominence of the contracting parties added in terest to the event and made assurance donbly sure that invitations would be universally re sponded to in iierson. The lovely home of Mr. and Mrs. Brice was ablaze with light and fittingly decorated in honor of the important event to occur within its walls, as the guests assembled on Thursday evening. The parlor in which the ceremony was to occur was carpeted in white. A large Iwy window aa dntpedwith festoons of lace of uirest white and near at one side was a stand literally covered with choicest flowers and hot house plants. Promptly at eight o'clock Mrs. J. 1. Bracken began Mendelssohn's wedding march and, keep ing step to, the strains, the bride anil groom- elect appeared Ukq the scene and took their places in the alcove. The Itride was exauisitely drensed in delicate blue silk, en traine, trimmed with ribbons of the same shade. I'altt blue satin slippers and undressed kid gloves completed a toilette both beautiful and refined. The groom was dressed in customary black relieved by a white tie and tan gloves. Accomimnjing the contracting parties were two little bridesmaids, the Misses Beth Appleton and Itta Solomon, dressed in white, and two groomsmen. Masters Carl Brice and Fred Soleman. As soon as the bridal party hail taken its Mwition llev. 1. (1. Meath spoke the wonts which meant so much. The responses were clearly given and in a few moments the happy couple was receiving the congratulations of the numerous guests. Shortly after the ceremony the guests were seated at numerous tete-a-tete tables enjoing u moot de licious wedding feast. After their resiects had been paid to the luscious viands the company turned their attention to the wedding gifts which were numensis and costly. They were so thickly displayed that one wonders how Mr. and Mrs. Barber will ever find room for them when they commence keeping house. At a late hour the company disiersed with renewed expressions of good wishes and won Is of congratulation. At two o'clock, Friday morning, Mr. and Mrs. Bar ber took the Northwestern limited train for Columtms, Nebraska, where Mr. Barber has for some time resided anil where he conducts the largest dry-goods business in the city. He it an upright and honorable business man and is wor thy the great good fortune which has come tit him. The bride has passed her life in Tama; she has reached woman's enttoV under the eye- of our citizens, and she has won a host of friends through the exercise of those good tialiti- which humanity involuntarily admire. She has taught, with satisfaction, in the Tama public schools anil has hail, at times, almost entire charge of the large dry goods detriment in the well known "West Knd" store of her father. Thus tier's has been a busy life. She attended the musical department of Western College and afterward perfected her musical education at the Chicago Conservatory of Music. The social cir cles of Columbus have won a prize in the person of Mrs. Barber and The Herald tenders its con gratulations to them as well as to Mr. and Mrs. Barber. May all their fondest anticiationa be realized and their lives lie crowned with success. District Cotirt Proceedings. Margaret Gottschalk, v C. B. Q. Ry. Continued by agreement. A. Henry v M. J.

Kochenilorfer, our genial hotel man, has Jived a nuiiilier of years in Platte county and done business all the time, and yet has never made a visit to the county seat. This is a somewhat novel fact. He keeps a good hotel, just the same. Our citizens mourn the loss of their newspaper, it having lieen merged into the Humphrev Democrat and published ut Humphrey. I Our people have enjoyed several meet- j ings or the literary society, which meets at the schoolhouse every Friday evening. The exercises consist of debate, essays and declamations. Mr. George Billups has had n severe attack of the grippe. The stormy weather has mused a lull in corn hauling, and gives I lie elevators a chance to empty their bins. During the rush several hundred bushel.- of shelled corn v;is he:ited on the ground, for want of room in the elevator. Akers, the livery man, as well jls a good many other citizens, are more or less ailing with the prevailing disorder. Our public school is nourishing and Mr. Rothleitner is succeeding well in his efforts to improve the condition of things. Superintendent Cramer spent, a couple of days here lust week, visiting the schools in this vicinity. WrittfuorTiiKJonHNVi. PKRFKlT TKVSf. My boat is on the oisn m-u.
