A surprise party was tendered Dave lloyd laat Tuesday evening, the occasion being the celebration of his sixteenth birthday. A few of hid young friends gather! at his home on West Sixteenth street and spent a very pleasant eveuing. Jim Krazier shipped, Monday, two cars of steers bought of John Wurde nmn and John Johannes to South Omaha, aud was arranging yesterday to take down some more, txmght of Mrs. Lunelle, Mrs. Miller and Heck Blaser. The. old Gross store building, an old landmark standing unoccupied for a number of years, opposite the Hulier bolide on I'tth street, has been removed by t Jeo. Lehman to the. lots east of the Thurstou hotel, for use as sample rooms. Somebody has got into the habit of shootiug at rabbits within the city limits und we are told that some shots lately came pretty close to a lady and her child. Whether the shooting is done with u gun or revolver, it is n dangerous practice and should not le tolerated. -A. M. 1'arsons' little daughter, aged live years, aud who has been sick with scarlet fever, died Tuesday night of last week.

We believe that he is as innocent of the crime charged against him as any man living, aud have no doubt that the trial will prove it thus to all fair-minded people. Don't beat your wife and children, or you may get in jail if Police Satterlee hears of it iu the, night time or Taylor in the day time. Don't lieat vt?ar wife under any circumstances. If there is any beating going, let her wield the Cot tonwood, for the probability is that you deserve the trouncing. Mr. and Mrs. C. K. Auibbary celebra ted the tenth anniversary of their wed ding Saturday eveuing at their resi dence, corn'" r of Olive and 14th streets. Innocent r.nusemenls, the presentation of many valuable presents and a sumptu ous supper, were the special features of the very enjoyable occasion. The seventeenth annual hall of lio neor Hook and Ladder Co. No. 1, at the opera house, Monday evening, was a brilliant success in every important par ticular. Probably no ball ever held by the company excelled this one, either in the number of dancers or of sjiectators, aud the occasion was one long to be re membered by all present. The newspaper proprietor who charges 89.00 for a notice that the law says shall not cost more than SC.00, and will not make good the "mistake" to the widow and orphans who suffer therebyf is a thief and robler of the meanest kind, no matter how loud-mouthed and blatant a "reformer" he may profess to lie. The Madisou Iteporter is not very well pleased over the move that is lieing made by Humphrey and Norfolk, for a now county, of which Humphrey would le the county seat. Such a reconstruc tion would take the county seat from Madison, no doubt. Men are not neces sarily corrupt liecause they do not be lieve as we do. There are matters of local informa tion sometimes so valuable that not knowing them you may as a property owner loo money enough to pay the Mibscription price of vour local paper half your lile-time. If you take vour local paper, read it carefully, for infor mation in general, for business proposi tions, aud with au attention alert to vourown individual interests all around, von will lind it a valuable aid. in a short time you will ee that it is indit iensable. The Argus is beginning to realize that prejudice is not a good foundation for a newspaer plant, especially one that is to Mourish for a term of years. Prejudice is to confidence, what coun terfeit coin is to the genuine. Nearly the whole stock in trade of the Argus since its start has been the creating and fostering of prejudice against Columbus, in every conceivable way. This is am ply proved by almost every issue of the Argu6, and abundantly so even in arti cles wherein it ia specially denied. -This week we were shown a piur of fine shoes, made by one of the Indian boys who are learniug their trade under Mr. Craig that in point of excellent work manship it appears to us could hardly lie bettered. They were cut, stitched and finished, ready for service without any assistance on the part of Mr. Craig, and are exhibited by hi in as a specimen of the work his boys are capable of doing. The ehoes are made for and will be worn by superintendent BackuB. j Genoa Pipe of Peace.

Mr. New man is an old-time, printer and publish er, genial and accommodating to his fellow-craftsmen and this paper wishes him well wherever he may cast his lot. - Dr. G. W. Martin, chaplain of the lie for i u school at Kearney, Presiding Elder J. E. Moore of Grund Island, and Itev. J. H. Johnson of Platte Center were all in attendance at the M. E. church Monday evening, Itev. Martin preaching a very interesting sermon. Warwick Saunders need not think for a moment that in anything we may say concerning him, individually, that we mistake his personality for the independ ent party of Platte county, or in any manner the emliodiment of the principles or practices of the honeet farmers of old Platte we know better; his methods'nre not their methods: he. all along, has been trvingto farm the farmers, and is shallow enough to think that he is hav ing siime success in that line. The life blood of business is "good goods and fair dealing." whether it lie newspaper busi' ne-s or any other. The editor who grounds his work on prejudice is like the merchant who deals in shoddy goods and that of the worst kind. -Baker Post No. l. G. A. IL. at their meeting Saturday evening voted resolu tions of thanks to H. T. Sjioerry and J. 15. Meagher, who. as delegates to the en campment last week, secured the en campment for Columbus next year, also, to the comrades of other places for as sistance. We understand that Norfolk, Milford, Schuyler. Fremont and Omaha, have placed themselves in a situation to lie remembered by Columbus. Messrs. SiKterry and Meagher deserve the thanks of this community for the earnest work they did in this matter, and but for which the usual result would have to be recorded, it is all tlie more praise worthy as the location was all but set tled when they arrived on the ground, in favor of Hastings, but matters took such a turn that Hastings gallantly withdrew from the contest, and gave ft with great unanimity to Columbus. The encampment will bring to Colum bus for two or three days, from fo :- hun dred to 6ix hundred ladies and jcntle men from all parts of the staf T The post also passed resolutions expressive of their sentiments upon the Life and services of Gen.

Ladies' Relief Corps and Sons of Veterans organiza tions should also be instituted not only for their own good, but as auxiliary to the interest of the encampment. These organizations are worth a hundred times all they cost to their metnliership, for the social benefits, alone, and when you come to know tho good that is Ik ing done by them in caring for the widows and orphans of old soldiers, and for such of the veterans themselves as yet linger among us, disabled, suffering from wounds, the good that is being done cannot be measured. Nchovilli. "IT we onlv hail mmiu miow" has lieen the general wish among the farmers this winter. Now we have got it. to be sure, all the way from 1 to 1.1 feet deep! The blockade was complete, the only way we could tell that our ueighlsirs were still living was by weing the smoke rising from their snow-covered houses. Not withstanding that the weather was ex tremely mild until recently and the cattle could find a great deal or feed in the stalk fields, feed will be very scarce here next spring. What few cattle were fattened are mostly sold for that reason. A proof that the people of Ncboville and vicinity are still prospering is the transfer of real estate of late. Mr. H. Loseke having purchased the Henry Muhle farm. Suppose one of his sons will keep bachelor's on there next sum mer, or how is it, Louis": The Kersch farm has also been sold to A. Henke and Brngger Bros., and the latter huve sold part of the old Riss place to John Poersch. We are glad to hear that Adolph Gro telushen has recovered from his recent illness. Geo. Groteluschen is making prepara tions to leave for his farm near Creston. Don't be in a hurry, George, you will soon enough regret that you ever left Neboville anyway. We notice iu the lust week's Woehen blatt that Mr. Kilian, who seem9 to lie on the war path with U. S. postoffice offi cials in general, complains that some of his subscribers who are patrons of this postoffice did not get their mail, includ ing the Woehenblatt of course, for three weekB. Now, if those complainers had had courage enough to shoulder a shovel and dig their way to the tostoflice, in stead of wniting for the next neighbor to open the roads, they would have found their mail there, if not as regular as usual, once or twice a week at least. We would advise Mr. Kilian to use his influence in n different and more useful way, that is, urge our legislature to make a law compelling each farmer to break the road through or along his farm, wherever possible, instead of as it is generally done, let the man who through necessity, be it sickuess in the family, or other reason, is compelled to break the road to town alone. B. F. (ii-uud 1'rairie. Items are scarce, especially since the big snow storm. The bnuks are from twelve to fifteen feet high in many places, blockading the roads so as to lie almost impassable for teams, and some of our jieople are in great want of fuel on ac count of the inability to get around through the drifts. Mr. T. Mohlman. our town treasurer, was lately visiting the tax payers, which means a call for money and that is u pretty scarce article at present. lteiuhold Bodmer will close his school in the Graves district next Friday. Mr. and Mrs. Henry von Heifien let their little daughter Annie, aged one year. The burial took place at the Lu theran church last week. Mr. Islet Ubben also lost uu infant child a few weeks old, which was buried in the Bap tist cemetery. Ansou O'Connor, our teacher, went to visit his folks iu Columbus township lost Friday, and failed to get back on Mon day morning. Our literary society is haviug a vaca tion during this bad weather, but will resume its usual activity as soon as the roads are in good condition. Some of our ladies are quite anxious to see the creamery wagon once more drive up to their doors; probably Ihey think they are earning their butter by the sweat of their brow We understand that D. L. Brueu has made i!00 pounds oi muter uunng tlie last two weeks; pretty good, D. L. Our neighbor, Mr. Colwight, lost a little boy about six years old last week, of scarlet fever. We understand he was buried in the Streater cemetery. All our afflicted neighbors have the sympathy of this community in the loss of their loved ones. Sons. No. 9V Random.

There wus also a sleigh just a few rods ahead that contained several young ladies. The frightened team run into the sleigh causing it to go through the same per formance as the first; this frightened the latter .team and they, too, immediately moved with an ungovernable speed; three ladies received injuries but none severe, except little Maudy Meayes, who was struck about tho face with the neck yoke ou the first started team. Willie Marshall, while hauling ice Sat urday, slipped and fell backward across a block "of ice from which he has lieen confined to his bed. Why don't some people explain them selves? We have been seriously wonder ing what "Cyclops' meant by Johnnie Curry breaking his tongue. He must have suffered. Jjtnh Bro. Iitrlct 44 and Vicinity. Friday closed our winter term of six months' school. Prof. D. D. Pickett and lady spAiil the afternoon iu the school room. Mike Welch, the mail carrier, passed the school hotiMi Saturday morning for Shell creek P.

Two more wagon trains loaded with hogs passed the school house Friday among which could be seen a wagon oc casionally, loaded with a fat beef on foot. There is scratching around among most of the. farmers for corn now; there seems to lie more for pale in this imme diate neigh! Kir hood; there is plenty 16 to 20 miles east, but the suow blockade has not lieen raised that fur east yet. Mr. and Mrs. Carl Iteinke from Shell creek passed here Friday in a sleigh, bound for the city. G. T. Ward took the train Saturday morning for Platte Center, near which place he will spend a week's recreation. The school teachers in this vicinity were talking of holding a meeting for tho purpose, of passing judgment on the ground hog, in the end that he might be killed. We are told that some schools were closed after the storm, and have not re sumed yet. Fred. Luckey, jr.. haa a new sleigh which he makes good use of on the road. Johnny Curry seems to articulate nearly as well as ever, since the serioun mishap your correspondent from "the little world" got him into, that of break ing his tongue with a four horse team.

If the ther mometer keeps where it is now the busi ness will last all summer. The mail has been .through twice in eleven days. The roads are broken now so that unless we have another blizzard we can have our regular mails. The like has never been known in our day in Ne braska. Miss Carrie Hanchett visited at her aunt's, Mrs. McClurg in St. Kdward, over Sunday, refuting Tuesday. Miss Martha Hanchett is expected home from Fremont Saturday. W. H.

We have been reading again the history of the iirst ten years of Platte county l iy I. N.

Our school closes next Wedueaday with an entertainment by the scholars. We believe Mr. Wilson has taught a very successful term and given universal sat isfaction. Mr. Sven Caspars on was kicked ou the leg by his horse some two or three weeks ago and is just able to lie out at the pres ent time. Dan. DuBraa. Mrs. Dieffenbach is visiting at Genoa with her son, Byron. The roads are in a worse condition than they have been for many years. Travel is being resumed somewhat now. Monday Jacob Tschudin came from the Loupe, accompanied by neighbors with hogs for shipping.

These cars are built on the same gen eral plan as the regular tirst-clahS Pull man Sleeper, the only difference lieing is that they are not upholstered. They are furnished complete with good comfortable hair inattresies, warm blankets, suow white linen, curtains, plenty of towels, combs, brushes, etc.. which secure to the occupant of a berth as much privacy as is to bo had iu first class sleepers. There are also separate toilet rooms for ladies and gentlemen, and smoking is absolutely prohibited. For full information send for Pullman Colonist Sleeper Leaflet. K. L. Lomax. General Passenger Agent. Omaha, Neb. The Shining Light Ofche old world, soldiers, statesmen aud u of letters, all write in the most ex travagant praise of our facilities for travel iu America. And we are entitled to the praise. On every P.nglish line there is the same old dusty lunch coun ter, knowu by all tourists for these many years. Not even a drink of water, nor a crust of bread to be had on the train. No wonder our traiH-at'antic friends express amazement when they sit down to a hotel dinner on one of the palace dining cam on the Union and Southern Pacific railways an arrangement which is the most jierfect in the country today. A Sate liivetment. Is oue which is guaranteetl to bring you satisfactory results, or iu case of failure a return of purchase price. On this safe plan you can buy from our ad vertised druggist a bot tie of Dr. King's New Discovery for consumption. It is guaranteed to bring relief in every cae, when used for any affection of the throut. lungs or chest, such as consump tion, inflammation of the lun.s. bron chitis, asthma, whooping cough, croup, etc., etc. It is pleasant and agreeable to taste, perfectly safe, and can always be depended upon.
