II. H. Eyman of Nance county and J. W. Apgaftof Platte are .tho committee men for the Twenty-fifth representative district the ensuing two years. Anything of importance politically during the campaign should be called to their at tention. Col. Wilson of the Twenty-fifth U. S. troops stationed at Missoula, Montana, stopped here between trains Sunday. He is on his way east on a recruiting tour. He has landed interests in Cedar county, and thinks Nebraska's future is all right. Mr. Duffy broke a pulley Monday, while working on the Congregational church, and had to stop until it could be replaced.

Savidge of the Humphrey Tubular well works has been in Stanton county for the past three weeks putting down a five hundred foot well for the Stanton county breeding farm. At a depth of 250 feet he bored through six inches of granite rock." Several complaints have been lodg ed with us against the somewhat numer ous, filthy hog pens in the city. It is a mutter well deserving the attention of every citizen and of the city council. The days have come when all filth should be burned or buried in earth, to purify the atmosphere, to guard against dis ease. It is such paragraphs as the follow ing that show the prosperity of a town. The Osceola Record says: S. S. Snell has burned four kilns of brick, the fifth is burning and he expects to burn two more this season, making 700,000 that have been and will be used, almost ex clusively inside the corporation, this season. Sheriff Caldwell tells of an uncle, Hiram Coffin, singularly wounded dur ing the Rebellion; he was struck by a ball, in the forehead, it penetrated the skull and lodged in the rear part of it, a portion of the brain exuded from the wound, and the man is still living, but has a constant, involuntary motion of the head from left to right. CoL Davis of the Telegram comes out pretty strong against CoL Bixby of the Sentinel in relation to the "Judkins," and what CoL B. knew about J. in for mer days at Fullerton, and what he had told CoL D. about him and his ways. He suggests that B. has been "Been" by J., and changed his mind. D. concludes by saying that B. "is putty, ia slippery." J. N. Mitchell, who has been living near Oconee the last two years, skipped out Saturday night week at midnight, taking with him a mortgaged team, be sides wagon, cart, eta, leaving word that he was going to Dodge county to get a load of apples. He owes Elston & New man some $300, besides which we under stand there are other claims against him. (Two of his boys he took along with him. Children Cry for Pitcher's Catttrla. Mr. Pattison of Henry county, Dli nois, journeyed to Nebraska for his health; in three weeks, he has gained a good appetite, and seven pounds of flesh, is enthusiastic over the pure air and good water of the Platte valley, will buy a farm and settle down. It is his delib erate opinion that the man who knows Illinois and Nebraska thoroughly and will stay in the former state, in prefer ence, ought to be shot. J. D. Booth, a young man aged 17, died at the residence of Mr. Severene, this city, Monday, Sept. 8, of inflamma tion of the bowels. The young man was traveling overland with his parents from Tyner, Smith county, Kas., to Arizona, Burt county, this state, and was taken sick and died at this place. His remains were interred in the Columbus cemetery yesterday morning at 9 o'clock, Kev. Worley giving the words of consolation. J. W. Lynch of Platte Center and C. D. Murphy of Humphrey, the expert examiners appointed by the county board of supervisors to examine the rec ords of certain county officials, entered upon their duties last week, and have been busy with the county clerk's books. If their work shall be thorough, ex haustive and impartial, (as there is ev ery reason to believe it will be), tho tax-payers of the county will be satisfied. Norfolk endeavored to form a stock company in order to secure the estal lishment of a beet sugar factory, but failing in that they have got up a guaranty bond to those locating such factory and refinery that at least 2300 acres shall lie planted to sugar beets, cultivated, harvested and delivered to such factory, guaranty to extend not longer than three years. The guaranty was to be presented to Mr. Oxnard of Grand Island last jroek. Sunday afternoon, as Miss Kate Early and Miss Delilah Davis were driv ing past the Fleming hotel, their horse became fractions and began to make progress backwards instead of forwanl. Mr. Rogers of the U. P. force, got into the vehicle, but the horse was still ob streperous, and backed and kicked until they were all thrown out. Nobody was seriously hurt, although Miss Early lost consciousness for a little while, and Dr. Clark was called to her relief. Col. J. R. Meagher tells us that there were three deaths at Grand Island during the reunion, and three births. One child was trampled to death by the surging crowd when the gunboats were maneuvering; another was struck in the head by a ball; and another was left by its mother, in a baby carriage at one side of the tent, while she was washing some clothes at the opposite side; when the mother returned, the child was found strangled to death, its neck caught be treen spokes in the carriage wheel. John C. Van Housen, resident near Richland, Colfax county, has been nomi nated for state senator for this district, by the democrats. Mr. Van Housen has been a resident of Colfax county for twenty-two years, is well known, espe cially by many of the old settlers, and would no doubt do credit to himself and party, should he happen to be elected. The Platte county delegates present at the convention were Charles Schroeder, G. Frischolz, T. McTaggart,P. S. Griffin, J. Merrill and F. Luchsinger. Mr. Schroeder had the honor of presiding over the convention. Dan Condon was here Sunday on his return from Washington and Oregon where he had been looking after a rail road contract. Dan says that country is flat the real estate boom all gone out of it Dan says that if the extra water that generally falls here during the rainy season were 6tored as it is there for future use in irrigating the land, Nebraska soil would out-do by far any thing in the west. The hop product was the biggest thing he saw in the way of land product, but he says that he has seen on Shell creek, without irrigation, a bigger crop of wild hops to the acre. Yesterday morning, Hon. Guy C. Barnum was a little too late in getting to the B. & M. depot, the train having just pulled out for Lincoln as Guy came up, puffing and blowing for dear life, so says our informant Now, ordinarily, for the common people, railroad corpo rations don't instruct their conductors to stop their trains and let on passen gers, but, in this case, whether it was the peculiarly distressed look on Guy's face that softened the heart of the con ductor, or whether it was the instinctive fear of the bloated corporation, for the farmer fighter, deponent saith not, but i' Guy went by rail to the fair. The Pawnee Indians, who used to occupy what is now known as Nance county, Neb., and whose "seat of empire" in these parts was lastly at Genoa, have been for a number of years in the In dian territory. They own 283,020 acres of land; their corn crop, 1,200 acres, is almost a failure this season, but they raised 4,000 bushels of wheat Two thirds of the tribe speak English and 124 children are in school. Many of the Pawnees live, dress and furnish their houses like the whites, and Agent Wood reports that the tribe is anxious to have their land allotted, and he suggests, be sides this, that citizenship be conferred upon the Indians. Annie Shaffroth, a young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Shaffroth, met death Tuesday of last week in a peculiar manner. Parents and two children had been out for a buggy ride. On return ing, the infant was taken into the house by Mrs. Shaffroth, while Mr. Shaffroth took care of the horses. Annie evident ly attempted to get out of the buggy and in doing so, she fell, her neck being em braced by the spokes of the wheel and she choked to death before being dis covered. The friends of the parents have the sympathy of all their acquaint ances in the peculiarly distressing death which has deprived them of a very af fectionate child. Among all the social events that have taken place in the county this fall, second to hone is the party given by Miss Bertha Stull and her brother Ar thur, at their home in the valley last Friday evening. A large circle of friends from Osceola, Shelby and Stromsburg gathered early in the evening and pass ed the time very enjoyably until they were called to partake of a supper of good things that can be found only on a folk county farmer s table. After supper, the music and other entertain ments continued until the wee small hours began to lengthen into big ones, and all returned home feeling that they had spent a very pleasant vsning. fOwotolt Bnwnii PERSONAL.

A Colntnbnx Lad Will Probably Low Hi Lire. Sunday afternoon, Luther Stewart, who lives near Martin Reagan's, east of the city, where the accident we are about to relate occurred, came into town with the unconscious, wounded body of Jo seph Abts, a Columbus lad about thir teen years old and son of J. P. Abts of this city. The facts, as we learn and believe them to be are that young Abts and Albert Schraru had gone hunting, driving a donkey in a cart. Schram had got out to shoot chickens, and Abts had driven the cart away from where Schram had left him; some chickens were started up, and Schram shot at them, and, un fortunately, a few of the shot hit the boy in tho cart, some striking near the nose, and one penetrating the skull above the right ear. Up to the time of writing this, Tuesday noon, young Abts has been un conscious, and Monday afternoon Drs. Mnrtyn, Evans and Arnold, assisted by Drs. Stillman and Clark, performed n surgical operation, removing a portion of the skull, and taking away the clotted blood underlying it. The doctors say that he has a hundred chances to recover now, where he had one, before the ope ration. There is not the slightest breath of suspicion that the sad casualty was any thing but purely accidental. Albert Schram is n son of Mike Schram, dee'd, is seventeen years old, of good disposi tion, and always a great friend of the injured lad. There is no doubt but be was greatly shocked by the accident, dazed and disconcerted, but no one for a moment thinks that Schram would in tentionally wrong young Abts. Farmrru' Union. At the regular meeting Saturday after noon at Fitzpatrick's hall there were present President J. S. Freeman, Sec retary R. S. Dickinson and some eight or ten others. The election of officers was postponed until the next regular meeting, the first Saturday in October. A motion was made to revise the con stitution so as to admit merchants, me chanics and laborers to membership. After considerable discussion the motion was withdrawn. It seemed to be the prevailing opinion that the discussion of farm topics, for which tho Uuion was organized, would not be specially inter esting to other classes of laborers. On motion G. C. Barnum was added to the committee of the alliance consist ing of S. O. Rai'mond, E. O. Wells and A. W. Clark, to arrange for the inde pendent picnic to be held in ColumbuB between the 22d and 26th of September. There has been some money contributed that was not used for the Dech meeting, which, it is understood, will be used for this picnic. A meeting was appointed for Satur day next, Septemder 13th, at 1 o'clock sharp, to which everybody is invited to listen to G. C. Barnum on finance, J. S. Freeman on class legislation, and to I. L. Albert, whose subject was not an nounced. Teachers, don't pull the ears of your pupils, or subject them to any other un usual or cruel punishment. There is entirely too much tendency in teachers to become autocratic and dictatorial. Under the best of conditions, the chil dren (especially the young children un der your charge), are comparatively at your mercy a good portion of the time; you can make life to them a very griev ous burden, a heavy yoke, or you can lighten their cares and lift their bur dens, and show them the way of intelli gence, and help to make the days bright and joyous to the little people. Think how ranch ear-pulling, and whipping or standing on the floor you would do, if they were, physically, as strong as yon. The story of father and son hits this part of the subject exactly. The father says: "John, do you know why I am going to lick you?" John replied, after giving tho question a little thought, "Well, I don't know, except it's because you are bigger than I am." Among matters passed upon by the school board at their last meeting were: a change of arithmetics from McVicker's to Gotf's, the district paying the price of exchange, thus making no expense to pupils; Miss Pollock's transfer from a Second ward to a First ward depart ment, objected to by her, was not chang ed; a committee was authorized, if they think best, redistrict the north side of the city so that a portion of the pupils could attend the First and Second ward schools, instead of, as now, over-crowding the Third; the sixth grade of the First ward were advanced to Mr.Leavy's room, and the eighth transferred to the Second ward school.

Thirteenth St. A crowded house was the result of the announcement of the union meeting Sunday evening, fat the Presbyterian church. Revs. Griswold, Worley, Hunt and Hayes were present, the last presid ed over the meeting, and the three for mer delivered brief addresses. The fol lowing was adopted as the sense of the meeting: Whereas, the larger purpose of the World's Columbian Exposition is to set forth the general character and pros perity of this country, and Whereas, the American Sabbath is recognized by all Christian people and the friends of a Christian civilization to be one of the most potent influences in the foundation of such character and the securing of such prosperity, there fore be it Resolved by this assembly, first, that it becomes the commissioners' of the World's Columbian.
