Delsmau returned Thursday MEmthe east, where he had been buying if stock of goods for his large store on Eleventh street.

('.ill : The fee for marriage license is $1.50, and yet it is a fact that county judges have been requested to wait for their pay.

The Wolf ltoys escaped from the jail room Thursday night, some one from the outside evidently having pro vided them with an implement for that purpose. They were not confined in tho cage, as they should have been, and we understand that this was the case be cause the cage was occupied by the two girls sent up for disorderly conduct. Tho two girls might have been placed in one cage, and the five men in the other one; true, the five men would have Iteen in rather close quarters, but we have known men who had committed no of fence against tho peace of the commun ity, to have no shelter over them in the night and no bed but the bare earth. We gag at gnats sometimes, and swal low hornets. The assessor makes his rounds all the same, and the tux-payers foot the bills. If there was a more rigorous enforcement of the law against all classes of law-breakers, there would be far less crime and fewer criminals, because, say what you will, the law (en forced) is a terror to evil doers. t:. h.

Discussion Would the introduction of the Swiss Referendum improve the government of the United States?--By the Circle. - Leopold Plath tells us that Fred Schaad on Schaad creek, has a well eighty feet deep, in which the water rises to within four feet of the surface. It will not push its way higher, but there is fall enough to the creek to turn the water into it when desired. One of these days Schaad will try to sink an artesian well by going deeper. Mr. Plath has sunk some deep wells one for John Logemann on Grand Prairie is 255 feet; one a mile east at Henry Deike's, 255, and one on Dr. Heintz's farm, northwest corner of Colfax county, 2150 feet. Twenty -one years ago, one of our surprises in this country was the fact that in one hour from the time the work began, we were pumping good, whole some water out of an iron tube driven down into the gravel.

Every day in the year is good for cleanliness, but when the sun begins to make things warm is a very fit time to dispose of the accumulated filth that lurks in alleys and corners and ont-of-the-way places in cities. Communities not a hundred miles away from us are wrestling with diseases known as caused by filth, and it is altogether becoming that Columbus should take warning, and use all means of prevention. The Y. M. C. A. of this city have se lected F. R. Knapp as their delegate to the state convention to be held on the 24th at West Point. A good selection. It is confidently hoped that the organi zation here will result in many substan tial benefits to the city. Time will de velop what these are. There is surely abundant work for the organization. When the snow was about going Rev. Mr. Benthack walking to Platte Center was followed closely by a big wolf. Hearing a snapping behind, Mr. B. looked around and seeing the animal close behind, he swung his stick and uttered some threatening words, when J Mr. wolf went back a few steps and sat down on its haunches. Look to your assessments of real estate.

Scoleld-Swartsley. The following reached us too late for last week's issue. The marriage, which took place on the 8th, was announced in this paper of that date. Ed.
