Mr. L Gluck feeling good over the
political situation and whose exchecquer
was repleted to the tune of some $150.00
by way of speculation on the result of
the election, determined to devote the
same to the needs of the deeervin" por
of the city. He accordingly sel' ed a
committee of three, one member ; each
political party, the democrats, independ
ents and republicans, as follows: Charles
A. Speice, E. O.Wells and Henry Ragatz.
In their handsJie placed orders for $50
worth of Hour, $50 worth of coal and $50
worth of groceries, making $150 in all.
The committee is to supply poor fami
lies with these necessities as far as they
will go. In this method of dispensing
charity Mr. GInck has hit upon the true
principle. True charity will acknowl
edge the claims of the needy poor at
home as first and foremost in our con
sideration always.
Here is a method for detecting coun
terfeit bills as laid down by the chief of
the United States secret service. "It is
a fact but little known that but four
bills of any denomination are printed at
one impression by a printer. These four
bills are lettered A, B, C, and D. Those
bills lettered A and C are always num
bered with odd numbers, the bills let
tered B and D being even numbered.
For instance, here is a bill lettered B, its
number is 1,107,458. You see its number
is even. Now, here is one lettered C,
and, as you see, its number is l,9f4,713.
There is the odd number. But, as I
said, this test is not infallible. Once in
a while the numbering machine may fail
to change a number owing to the failure
of the changing cogs to act, or the
wrong lettered bill may be slipped under
the wrong numbers."
In view of the fact that agents who
claim to represent wholesale houses in
the grocery line are working the farmers
of the country and purporting to sell
them goods much cheaper than can be
purchased of home dealers, The Jour
nal thinks advisable to say that farmers
would do well to place all orders for
goods with reliable home dealers, men
who have a record for fair dealing to
either make or lose; and no safer guide
will be found than your local papers.
The men whose names are constantly
before yon in the newspaper columns
can be depended upon for fair dealing;
and they will also have enterprise enough
to keep up with the times in prices and
give you as much or more for your cash
than you can get from an irresponsible
peddler, even though he does represent
himself as a wholesaler.
Miss Isabelle Hastings of Omaha,
has been cured of her desire to win
fame before the footlights. Becoming
stage struck, she applied for a position
recently in a traveling troupe and was
accepted. Her first appearance was to
be before a St. Joseph audience, and
when they arrived there Mr. Stephens
told her that he would assign her to a
place among the chorus of "French
maids," and that she would have to ap
pear in tights. Her answer was "No,
sir, if you think I am going to stand in
tights liefore every bald-headed man in
the country for 36 a week, yon are mis
taken." The papers say Miss Hastings'
Omaha connections stand high in that
citv.

What t'olumbaH Will ! t Aid the Western
SatVrrrs.
At the meeting held last week Thurs
day which was called by L. Gerrard,
chairman of the board of trade for the
purpose of devising means to aid the
western sufferers, it was decided to place
the matter of soliciting contributions
from the resident portion of the city into
the hands of the schools of the different
wards through their teachers and ad
journ the meeting to the same place on
Monday evening to hear a report and
take further action.
The adjourned meeting was attended
by a large number of our representative
business men.
Prof. J. M. Scott as a committee from
the schools in his report showed them tr.
have responded nobly in the work
assigned them, and also demonstrated
that our citizens can be depended upon
to respond generously in matters of
charity. About $50.00 in money and a
large amount of clothing and provisions
had been donated and the work not
finished.
To the interest taken by Messrs. Ja?ggi
& Schupbach in the matter is due a
handsome contribution of one hundred
dollars in cash from E. Sechel t Co., of
Chicago. The following telegram was
received and read at the meeting:
Chicago. Nov. 13, 1S90.
Messrs. Jaeggi t Schupbach. Sub
scribe one hundred dollars for us, to
sufferers in Nebraska. Draw on us for
it. E. Sechel Sc Co.
A committee was appointed consisting
of David Schupbach, William A. McAl
lister. Jonas Welch, I. Gluck and Charles
Segelke to wait upon the business men
of the city to secure subscriptions and
the committee was instructed to take
charge of all matters appertaining to the
relief of the western sufferers.
It was decided that all contributions
of clothing and provisions not sent to
the school by the pupils or given to the
subscription committee should lie left at
Win. Becker's store on Thirteenth street,
to be called for by an expressman. All
collections of money to be used by the
committee in purchasing provisions, so
that all contributors may feel assured
that their donations will lie devoted to
the object for which they are intended.
There is now no longer anydoub that
Columbus will meet the demand made
upon her generosity in her usual prompt
and liberal manner, and will be ready
with a goodly quantity of clothing of all
kinds and also Hour and other provis
ions. At least a car load will lie ready
to ship as soon as word is received des
ignating the jKiint to which the goods is
to be assigned.
The editor of the Iowa Homestead
is personally known to many of our
readers, and into the publication over
which he presides he has the faculty of
getting more of practical worth to the
square inch of white paper, than any
similar publication we know of. Life is
too short, and the demands of our west
era farm life are too many and urgent to
waste time reading eastern farm period
icals mainly taken up with something
appropriate only to their own locality.
See the proposition elsewhere pf the
Homestead Co., and if you don't wish
to bother sending for their paper, call at
this office, and we will take your sub
scription, along with that of The Jour
nal, both papers, when paid one year in

A Schuyler special says: Last night
about 10 o'clock Louise Fiola, wife of
Joseph Fiola, drank a potion that in
thirty minutes caused her death. Yes
terday afternoon about 4 o'clock she
went to Sefarek & Kubiscek's and or
dered a bottle full of strychnine, telling
the druggist, upon being asked for what
she desired it:
"Oh, there are lots of rats and mice
about the house." He went to his reg
ister and jokingly asked. "Are you white
or black?" She replied, "Oh. yon don't
have to nut that down, do you? Do
you think I want to commit suicide?"
He replied, "People do strange things
sometimes." During all the conversa
tion Mrs. Fiola acted gaily and light
hearted. The druggist gave her sixty
grains of the drug. She speut the even
ing about home as usual, nothing seem
ing at all wrong till shortly after 10
o'clock, when she was taken suddenly
ill. Soon she was in violent convulsions.
Upon inquiry as to the probable cause,
she said:
"I have taken poison." Medical aid
was hastily summoned, but before it
was at hand the drug had done its work.
In awful agony a spirit had departed
into the great unknown. She was a wo
man of 21 and married about two years
ago. A 7 months old babe is left moth
erless. No cause is ascribed, as none
knew of any family differences. No
word of reason for her act was spoken
by her or left in writing. Measurements
of what was left in the Iwttle and cup,
from which she drank show that live
grains were taken.

"This one who died an hour ao."
He smiled: "She i not dead."
"Asleep, then, as Thyself did say.
Yet Thon can lift the lid- that keep
Her prisoned eye from ours away."
He smiled: "She doth not sleep."
"Xay. then, though liappy she do wake
And look non some fairer dawn
Restore her to our hearts that ache."
He smile. 1: "She Is not cone."

"I Like."
I like the papers that have cojne to me
weekly for many years. They seem like
old friends. No others can take their
place. I like to read my scrap book
which is made up of pieces taken from
them. Long may they prosper. I still
like the friends of my early days, al
though they are so scattered all along
from here to Anywhere, that I know not
the dwelling places of many of them. I
like my neighbors, they
Who cheered me when the t-ar welled up
Within my eye- time and auiiin;
Wnen I could neither -leep nor -up:
iod hleas them all, amen. amen.
And, too, I like this house of clay that I
live in; it has done me good service, but it
will soon tumble down, be buried in the
ground, and return to dust. And I do
like to know that then -when the fitful
storms of this life are oer, that I may
enter into, and live forever in heaven,
and there meet many of my loved ones
who have gone home before me.
