A story comes to us straight of a
man (not necessary to ssy that he was
not a republican) who, in speaking of
the tariff, said it was a great question, it
spread out wonderfully, he didnt under
stand it and he didn't believe there was
one man in a hundred who talked about
it that did understand it, but there is
one thing, he said, "I do know and hick
ii a settled fact, and that is, tr Mc
Kinley bill is just h L"
The rascal who placed the tie on the
track between Bellwood and the river a
week ago last Sunday, has been ferreted
out by a railroad detective, who has been
in this vicinity for several days. Sus
picion rested upon a young lad 17 years
of age, who worked for Al Bouton all
summer, and yesterday morning the de
tective went out into the corn field and
commenced shucking with the lad, who
in a short time revealed the secret, and
was immediately placed under arrest.

Besides the regular meetings of the
county teachers' association, neighbor
hood meetings will be held at intervals
to consider matters pertaining to school
work. The first of these local meetings
will be held at Palestine school house
Saturday, Nov. 29th. The teachers of
that locality will attend, and the county
superintendent will call attention" to
certain points noted by him and the
same discussed. The chief subject next
Saturday will be the "development of
language.''
In May last, the general conference
of the M. E. church directed th sub
mission to the lay members of that
church the question of the admission of
women as delegates to the electoral and
general conferences. All members of
the church, 21 years of age or over, re
gardless of sex, were entitled to vote.
In accordance with the call the voting
took place here Saturday last at the
church. While the votes cast were few,
they were all in favor of the proposition.
Miss Lettie Jones, who had been
teaching the public school at Duncan,
closed the term the other day in nn en

which she generously provided the little
ones with a "treat" of candies and nuts.
We learn that the children, in their reci
tations and songs entertained their visi
tors very agreeably. This was Miss
Jones's third term in the district, where
she is very well liked. Among the la
dies present at the entertainment were
Mrs. Witchey, Mrs. Barrett, Mrs. La
throp, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Schmoker and
others whose names we did not learn.
Miss Jones teaches next in the Blaser
district.
Sunday evening in two of the
churches of the city, the mice were un
usually active that is, one mouse in
each of the churches referred to, but not
particularly named. The proverbial
church mouse is "poor." What these
were we have not learned, but certain it
is that the ladies of the choirs of the
churches, referred to but not particular
ly mentioned, were considerably disturb
ed, and the solemn services were not
suflicently absorbing to make as naught
the presence and activity of the rforc
said hnmble church mouse in the jhoir.
It is a practical question whether we
shall have a mouse trap of the latest
pattern, or whether a church cat shall
occasionally !e let loose on the premises.
At any rate, it will not do at all to have
mice continue in the churches.

a hint of the coming event a few days
previous and on the arrival of the visitors
had a banquet awaiting them, consisting
of turkey, chicken, duck aud in fact
everything that a hungry man could de

hours in pleasant conversation and to

- -From John Browner, yesterday, we
learned that the fire at his place Thurs
day afternoon at 4 destroyed his barn
and sheds, two horses, two colts, two,
sets double harness, same of single har
ness, hav in barn, etc.; of a thousand
bushels of oats, some were saved. The
loss was probably not less than 1,200,
with no insurance. The barn where the
fire originated was forty feet long, and
evidently it started somewhere in the
middle of the building, and on the in
side. The report that it had been from
a pipe of Mr. Browner's is not true; he
had not even been inside the barn for a
month, and the man who tended the
stable was not a smoker. The origin of
the fire is not known at all. The neigh
bors turned out immediately, and there
were more than a score on the premises
within twenty minutes, and to them is
due the fact that greater destruction
was not done, as the ground was covered
with very dry leaves to the depth of
three inches, and the pump nearest the
tire was too close to get at. It was very
fortunate that the fire occurred in day
light, and when there was no wind to
speak of.
H. S. Lathrop is one of Platte coun
ty's citizen farmers who has made a de
cided success raising small fruit, es
pecially grapes. Ten years ago he set
out a hundred grape vines, and three
years thereafter about a thousand more,
all Concord (which he finds the hardiest
and best), the vines occupying not quite
an acre of land. The first years, Mr.
Lathrop was very carrf ul to follow the
prescribed methods of caring for the
vines, especially during winter, but now
ihey are very hardy, and receive only
ordinary attention, but for severa years
past, he has been getting the benefit of
his care and trouble. The past season
he sold 6,000 pounds of grapes, which at
4 cents a pound was 5240 worth. Dur
ing the season Borowiak Bros., and
Covert V Naylor disposed of sixty
pounds a day each, regularly, while
Ragatz & Co. were also supplied for sale.
A ready home market was found for all
the product Besides the grapes, Mr.
Lathrop has also made a success of
raspberries (the Bed Turner variety) and
the Snider blackberries. Last year, too,
he had some very fins, large peaches,
and apples which measured twelve inch
es in circumference. There is no doubt
about fruit raising, when the right man
gets at it.

one BORDER PROITH SUFFERERS.
A Movrmrnt for their AnMstancr in the More
Wrrtlthy and Fortanate Portion
or the State.
Dr. Geo. W. Martin, of the Kearney
Reform School, was in the city yester
day in connection with a movement for
the relief of the suffering settlers on
the western border of the state. This
gentleman was recently commissioned
by Gov. Thayer to personally investigate
and report ufton the extent of the want
and suffering caused to the settlers in
the western border counties. Through
the instrumentality of Mr. C. A. Speice.
chairman of the city council, an informal
meeting of the prominent citizens was
called to meet at the office of L Gluck.
The doctor having been introduced by
Chairman Speice, stated to the meeting
the motive of the work which he had
been commissioned to perform, and the
manner in which it had been done,
which, very brieny summed up, relates
that the doctor visited a number of the
counties indicated by Gov. Thayer as hav
ing made application for relief, nnd
by diligent inquiry from county officials
and prominent business men of the most
important towns, nnd by personal ob
servation of the condition of many set
tlers, finds the case to be
such as in the interest of hu
manity and the welfare of the state
calls for immediate action to prevent
extreme suffering. The doctor estimates
that in the several counties visited from
200 to 300 families in each county will
need assistance in the matter of food,
fuel and clothing in order to pull
through the winter und remain upon
their claims, and will also need assist
ance in the way of seed for next year's
crops.
Having laid these facts before the
governor, Dr. Martin was further com
missioned to visit different localities of
the state and make the facts known, and
hence his visit to Columbus, having al
ready got the matter before the people
of Omaha and Lincoln and other points.
The meeting decided by vote to place
the matter in the hands of the president
of the board of trade, Leander Gerrard,
who calls a meeting of the citizens at
Fitzpatrick's hall, for Thursday evening
next at 7 o'clock to consider the matter.
Mr. Fitzpatrick generously donates the
hall for the purpose. Let all turn
out.

In Illinois the penalty for being ah
habitual criminal is a life sentence to
the penitentiary. The habitual crimin
al is a dangerous element to bo at largo
with perfect liberty, but it seems as
though some special agency for good
should be brought to boar in the early
training of the yonth of the land, tend
ing to give them incentives to right con
duct, and effectively teaching them how ,
to earn an honest living. The Jouhxal
believes that this may. in part, be done
by industrial departments in connection
with the public,free-school system.but it
will lie a loug time yet before such will

There, of course, tne necessity is the
more marked, although in many small
towns there are scores of boys without
employment, the very foundations of
whose after careers are being laid in
idleness, bad habits, evil associations,
worse elements to build upon than the
quicksands. Communities owe it to
their own present welfare to do what
they may toward remedying this evil,
so that, as much as possible, there may
be no " habitual criminals."
