up and the corner struck the ball of his

of the pupil. He was immediately taken

former on the hand, the latter in the
side. Meagher will have his hearing
this (Tuesday) afternoon. It is under

occasion there was too much drink on
hand.
A. Dussell of this city is acquiring
quite a reputation in his line of business
wind-mills, pumps, plumbing, etc., and
he is doing some extra fine work. We

works, every house can make ample
provision for water supply for household
use, and the honest plumber's advice
and aid are essential to economy and
convenience. It is always liest, too, to
employ home talent.

James, an 8 years old son of Peter
Cunningham, met with a serious acci
dent Sunday. Thos. McTaggart,
of the street car line, when
he went to dinner, unhitched the team
and tied their heads to the railing of the
car. While gone some of the older boys
hitched the team to the car and started
down town for a ride. At the turn near
the Methodist church, young Cunning
ham either fell or jumped from the car
and was run over by a wheel, the flesh
being bruised on the leg above the knee.
Drs. Martyn and Arnold dressed the
wound and it is now supposed the leg
will completely recover.
Frank Luchsingerwas driving home
Saturday evening, and had two little
children with him in the wagon. While
going along Wescott's line of trees, a
dog came out suddenly from the weeds
on the side of the road and frightened
the team so that they shied off eastward,
the wheels of the wagon coming within
a few inches of the east end of the
bridge, thus barely escaping what might
have proved a serious accident. We
have all had our experience with dogs of
this kind, both our own and other peo
ple's, and some one who can give an un
failing cure for the habit of charging out
after teams would confer a favor on the
general public. A friend suggests an in
fallible remedy viz kill the dog. But,
really, there are some very useful dogs
who have this one bad habit.
We are sorry to chronicle that the
Gilt Edge wind-mill factory is in the
hands of creditors of the company, for
bills of lumber and work of employes.
The sums are not large, and we hope
that some adjustment may be made so
as to allow the company to continue in
business. Mr. Wooeley is universally
regarded as a good man who has done
his level best since joining the concern
to keep matters moving. The business
is a good one, the plant is all right the
main trouble comes from the fact that
the manufactured products are sold on
long time and it takes time to realize on
the same. We believe that a small com
pany could be formed here, with Mr.
Wooeley that would resuscitate the
company and continue it in a prosper
ous career.
There is a joke on Wm. Dietrichs
that is too good to keep. A few days
ago he had occasion to go up on the roof
of his two-story business house on Elev
enth .street, to mend the roof or some
thing, and while up there it is supposed
that the owner of the ladder, not know
ing the whereabouts of Mr. D., but
needing his ladder, came and got it, at
that inopportune time. When Mr. D.
got through with his work, he started
for his downward trip he never likes to
lose any time from his work but just
as he was about to step down, he noticed
that the ladder was not there. He called,
as a matter of course, but his voice is
not so strong as it used to be, and so he
couldn't or at least didn't make himself
heard, on the first inning. He rested, of
course, that is, his larynx took a rest,
but, like the Irishman, he kept up his
pace of thinking. A man went by di
rectly, and he called to him to come and
help him down, but he wouldn't. Right
here a bit of philosophical oliservntion
seems appropriate, and it might be put
mildly in these words: the joker's earn
est entreaties are often mistaken for an
unusually strong pull on suckers, and
so the suckers refuse to catch on to the
hook. And thus it was in this case.
The man placed his finger to the lower
lid of his right eye, and gently pulling
downward on the same, threw his head
to one side, smiled and passed on. "Con
fusion worse confounded." An hour
passes. Dietrich is still "on top," but
the situation is against him. He retires
to the rear to wait and to watch if not
to pray. His opportunity comes., Mrs.
D. appears the situation is made appa
rent to her and she hurries to get a
ladder to rescue her lofty lord from his
tiresome sojourn on the roof. The lad
der is short several feet, but our tall
friend manages to cling to the perilous
edge of the roof until he has a firm foot
ing on the friendly rounds, and thns de
scends to terra firma.
The horse show at the opera house
two evenings last week was a novel and
very interesting entertainment. One
would almost believe that horses can
understand man-talk, by the way they
are trained. The battle .was the
most exciting performance, in which
horses in a fort fought against those on
the outside, these having cannon on their
backs and doing their own firing. One
act of the best-trained horse seemed to
prove a knowledge of colors. Three
handkerchiefs of different colors were
rolled together and placed in a desk.
Some one in the audience was called
upon to name one of the colors to be
selected from the roll in the desk. The
horse lifted up the lid, fumbled over the
handkerchiefs and produced the one of
the color named. This horse the trainer
had under his care one year, and was
wild when he got him; the smallest horse
was four years old and worth $1,000.
The entertainment is well patronized
wherever they go.
A goodly number of invited guests
of Occidental Lodge No. 21 K. of P. met
at ther hall on Eleventh street, Sunday
afternoon at 2:30, to hear the memorial
services. The invocation was pronounc
ed by Rev. W. S. Hunt, after which W.
N. Hensley made some appropriate in
troductory remarks. Col. John J. Monell
of Omaha delivered the address of the
occasion, dwelling at length upon the
ancient origin of secret societies in gen
eral, and giving a summary of the his
tory of Occidental lodge in particular.
The interest of the occasion was greatly
hightened by the very excellent music
of the Columbus Cornet band and the
Ariona. After the exercises at the hall,
the procession formed and inarched to
the cemetery, where brief and appro
priate addresses were made at the graves
of F. O. Becher, J. W. Early and A. T.
Davis, by M. Whitmoyer, W. N. Hensley
and Carl Kramer, respectively.
This (Wednesday) evening, has been
set apart for determining the location of
the new Masonic temple. Wherever the
fraternity shall determine to place it, let
the good work go forward, all the same.
Men's particular interests are not the
same, but every one of us is engaged in
doing what he can for the general wel
fare of the city. Let there be a healthy,
honorable rivalry, every man doing the
best he can to build up his own individ
ual interests and emulate the example
of his neighbor across the street, and let
every street vie with every other for a
long pull, a strong pull and a pull alto
gether for interests that are common to
all. There must lie no move backward.
Every dollar wherever placed in the
town, will count for good to all, and will
help to secure what we are all working
for. "
It is estimated that on Sunday last
there were not less than 5,000 people
who visited Bradshaw. One man says:
"The sights presented were new to most
of the people and expressions of amaze
ment and wonder filled the air. Indeed
it is impossible to understand the com
plete demolition of the village without a
careful examination of the place where
it once was. You must see the gashed
and maimed animals that He on the
prairie dead and the live ones that are
wandering over the town with legs and
head bandaged and patched. You must
see the splintered boards, the ruined
houses of all sizes from a shingle to half
a side that litter the streets and yards,
to form an idea of the terrific force of
the wind that left not one sound house
in a village that half an hour before
sheltered 500 souls."
Tuesday of last week Dan Sheedy
came very near losing his life, and as it
was, is seriously injured. He had load
ed a wagon with hogs and was about
starting to town with them; stepped on
the tongue to climb up onto the box,
but missed his balance just a little, drew
the horses short off to one side, lost his
balance and fell out, front and hind
wheels passing over him, breaking one
rib on his right side, bruising him con
siderably, and injuring his back. Drs.
Martyn and Arnold were called, dressed
his wounds, and the sufferer was placed
in the Sisters' hospital, where he now is,
doing as well as could be expected. The
team ran through two wire fences and
about half a mile in cultivated land lie
fore they concluded to stop.

sides the class, there were on the plat
form, the members of the school board,
Supt, J. M. Scott, Mrs. A. C. Ballon,
principal of the High school, Rev. W. S.
Hunt and Prof. W. D. McFarland of
Bellevue.
Supt. Scott called upon Rev. Hunt to
invoke a blessing on the exercises, which
was followed by a song by the juniors.
The graduates then rendered the fol
lowing program:
Welcome Annie E. Hanier
Poem Grace Taylor
Eaaaj "rit," Sybil I. Butler
Eiiaay "The revolution of time."
Maude M. Tiffany
Eiway "Kiska of Thinkin.".. .Eliza J. Drinnin
rJway "Society," Martha A.Welch
1'reabyterianiHm Henry C. Lucky
Much might lie said in praise of each
effort suffice to say that all did well,
and that their friends were justly
gratified by their success. Each one of
the class was greeted at the close of the
several exercises with showers of flowers
and rounds of applause.
Prof. McFarland's address to the class
was a happy mixture of mirth and
sobriety, of fnn and truth, and added no
little to the interest of the audience in
the exercises.
The president of the board, D. Schnp
bach, then made some appropriate re
marks to the graduates and presented
them their diplomas, accompanying Mr.
Lncky's with a certificate of admission
to the Nebraska State University.
The music of the undergraduates
added greatly to the enjoyment of the
occasion, the last piece, "Good night,
gentle folks," forming a fitting close to
the exercises.

Colimte to the M, MARCH !
Columbus, like Emperor Barbarossa has awakened from
its trance-like sleep and there is a peculiar scent in the air
and you can plainly see in that mysterious "White Hand"
the word
BOOM.
Everybody is more or less interested in it and the at,
GLOBE CLOTHIER has caught the fever too. We want to
be up to the times and try to create a little BOOM in
Clothing, Hals, Caps and Cents' Furnishing Goods,
which we can show you in abundant styles, qualities and pat
terns. We carry as large a stock as Omaha houses and we
guarantee to sell you goods at less than Omaha prices. Come
and see for yourself, and we let you do the talking. All goods
are marked in plain figures and strictly one price. Do your
trading at THE GLOBE and save 25 per cent.
