George has recent ly opened a way through on the mile of cross-road between Jacob Ernst's and J. II. Reed's on the section line, and has placed a culvert in the biggest gulch, so that those wanting to go from one road to the other can cross very conveniently. There are trees yet standing on a por tion of the road, which will, of course, lie cut down and out of the way liefore many months. One of our citizens who is as well posted on matters in general as any man in the state says if the Alliance, instead of trying to undertake to reform every evil under the sun, will give their atten tion to the transportation question and secure government ownership of the railroads: to the money question and secure an allowance to farm owners, as liberal as has been made for years to National banks, or less so for that mat ter, many of the wrongs under which agriculturists now labor will be removed out of the way, and the great industry upon which all others rest, being reliev ed of unjust burdens, will give new life and energy to all others. There is quite a joke on Joe Tiffany. He and Jim Frazier were out buying cattle Thursday, and Joe, who is an in veterate smoker, for some reason which we cannot imagine, and doubtless con trary to his entire line of practice here tofore, put his pipe into his coat pocket before the tobacco had all been smoked out. Friday morning, the tail of his coat a foot square more or less was gone and his pants opposite thereto were burned through; whether the fiery darts reached Joe, himself, we were not able to learn from him, but Otto Baker pur. poses to look up the buggy cushion and collect damages. Joe has another way to account for the hole in his coat, but it m ft little too improbable to "wash." Ki A qfeer looking package was receiv fcyflt theVffice of GusVx.

The little three years old son of A. Alderson, who lives three miles east of town was struck by a west Imund Elk horn freight, No. 73, last Monday morn ing, within sight of its terror stricken mother. The train was late and was trying to make Humphrey to meet the east bound passenger.They were running about eighteen or twenty miles an hour and in rounding a curve just east of Mr. Alderson's house, which stands a short distance north of the track, Engineer Hambly saw an object which he suppos ed was a dog laying at the outer edge of the track. When within about fifteen car lengths, the little child arose and walked between the two rails. The en gineer called for brakes, reversed his engine and applied the air, but the dis tance was too short at the rate of speed they were running, to make the stop. When the engine struck the child he was standing erect in the center of the track with his little hands pressed tightly over his face, as if to shut out from his gaze the big iron horse, who would so soon extinguish his vital spark. The engineer and fireman supposed he had gone under the 'wheels, but the shock threw the little fellow uponth pilot ana ne rouea on to tne side or the ie l track. When the freight reached Hum- purey, isr. xian. b uwpsicuea 10 ine scene or. ine acciueai, ana apparently the child was not hurt to any great ex tent, with the exception of a broken jaw, which fracture the doctor set, but Hon day night the child died, probably from internal injuries.

North and wife assisted by Dr. and Mrs. Evans, gave an informal reception at their home last Wed nesday evening in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Ockenden. The residence was crowded with friends the bride had made while in our city. About three years ago Mrs. Ockenden had a class here in elocution and was the first person to arotise inter est in our town for that art, since which there has been a good deal of talent brought to light. The cornet band ser enaded the couple during the evening and rendered some of their choicest music, among the selections being "De parted Days," a serenade by Louis, the rendition of which was very creditable to the band hoys. Following is an account of her wed ding, taken from tho Detroit (Mich.) Tribune. Mrs. Ockenden has very many sincere friends here who wish her all of good that life affords: "Miss Belle Parsons, daughter of Mr. j and Mrs. David Parsons, and Mr.Thomas J. Ockenden of Fresno, Cal., were mar ried yesterday afternoon (May 1st) at 5 o'clock at the residence of the bride's parents, 486 Third avenue. Rev. Fred erick Woolfenden officiated. The bride wore a robe of white silk, embroidered in the same color, and carried a large bouquet of white Nephotis roses. Miss Hattie Raymond assisted as bndemaid. Her robe was of pale salmon silk, her flowers white roses. The best man was Mr. James O'Brien. The marriage cere mony was witnessed only by the family, a few intimate friends and' the bride's classmates. From 7 to 9,a reception was given, which was attended by a large number of invited guests. "Mr. and Mrs. Ockenden left last even ing for Chicago, where they will visit a few days before going to California, and will spend the summer in the mountains, before making their residence in Fresno. The bride, who is a popular elocutionist, has many friends here nnd in the West, where she spent two or more years in teaching and giving readings, ner wedding gifts include many testimonials and souvenirs from loving pupils and devoted admirers." Prominent citizens and property owners ought to help the city officials to solve the water problem how to furnish all the water demanded for house and lawn purposes, for hotels and livery stables, for U. P. railroad and at the hsame time, keep on a pressure sufficient ly strong at all hours of the day and night to give good protection against fire. One who has given the subject some attention believes that the pay should be as nearly as possible accord ing to the benefits received that those who use the water should pay all the operating expenses; the interest on the investment operating as an insurance charge for protection against fire; safe guards should be provided against viol iokf ofrn! tions of the ordinances with reference the use of water, as it has been sh that violations have been almost with number.

The Omaha World-Heruld offers a premium of 8500, in cash, for the largest crop of corn grown on one acre during 1890, by a paid-up subscriber to the Weekly World-Herald. Believing that it would be a good thing for Platte county to win this prize.
