The old land marks and pioneer settlers of Platte county are passing away at a rapid rate. The year just closed has been an. eventful one and the number of deaths of old settlers was large. The public schools of David City are closed and the board of health have ordered all public meetings suspended on account of diphtheria. There are more than nine families stricken with the disease. A surprise party was tendered E. J. Mills last Friday evening. The even ing was spent in playing games and at half-past ten a dainty lunch was served. It is needless to say the evening was pleasantly spent. The receipts of hogs at South Omaha have been unusually large the past several days: Tuesday, 11,500: Wednes day, 10,900: Thursday, 8,200.

There is no use talking, I farmers are not going to raise beets for nothing, board themselves, and give something to boot. The board of supervisors at their last meeting purchased a fine large cab inet containing thirty-seven glass jars which will be filled with products of Platte county and exhfl ited at the World's fair next year. This is com mendable enterprise. At this writing, Tuesday evening, cases of diphtheria in seven different families have been reported to the board of health and two cases of scarlet fever. None of the cases are considered very serious by the attending physici ans. Butler County PresB. The banks in this city have received the new specie of 1892.

Wo were in error last week in giving the date of the mask ball to be given by the Hookies. The ball will be given, at the opera house, Tuesday evening, Feb ruary 16. The boys are disappointed- in not getting the house for the 22d, as has' been their wont for several years, but an engagement was already made for that date. Saturday evening about 6 o'clock an alarm of- fire, was turned in. The de partment responded with their usual promptness, and the fire was- found to be. in Judge Post's residence on west Fourteenth street.

The last of a series of socials given by the Knights of Pythias was enjoyed by a.large orewri at-their hall last Wed nesday evening. The installation of officers for the coming year took place, interspersed with recitations from Misses Gallagher and -Kate Taylor and music from Mrs, K. a. Chambers and Miss Nettie Anderson, and two selec tions by the cornet band. The remain der of the evening was spent in dancing and social games. .All regret this will be the last public one to occur this sea son, for they have most certainly been very enjoyable to guests, as- well as highly creditable to Occidental lodge. Only about two weeks ago the Madison papers formed a. pool, adopted a scale of prices for job work, and started out anew with the intention of having no more cutting on rates. Last week's issue of the Chronicle contains the following: MD"ntil further notice we shall do all kinds of job printing just a little cheaper than the Reporter can afford to, etc." This is about the usual length of life of those combines, trusts, etc., especially when formed in this kind of business. We are surprised, however, to see a man with the experience of Bro. Seeley, to become so earnestly engaged in a war of words. The following sentiment is worthy the heartiest approval, and should take the place of that other that every ship is romantic except the one we are sailing in: "Stand by your town. Not a dollar in vested there but some good comes out of it. There is no family like one's own family, there is no wife like one's own wife, there should be no town like one's own town, where we live, educate our children, on whose streets our babies play, and where we .may some day sleep. Let the newspaper stand by the town, and let the business men stand by the newspaper, and let us all make our home as famous as possible." , '. Hon. James H. Canfield, chancellor cf. the Btate university, will lecture in this city, Wednesday, Feb. .3, in aid of the school library of this city. Colum buBhas never been noted as a lecture city, but should make an exception in this case, and turn out in force to hear the chancellor, who has the reputation of being a brilliant lecturer. He is cer tainly one of the very best chancellors Nebraska Has ever had, and deserves well at the hands of all citizens who love our free public school system. Give him a good house. Now, surely, there is a sensibie woman. She writes: "I have been a reader of the Jotjbxaii for several yoars and have always found it to be a straight forward, reliable newspaper. The only fault I could possibly find with it is I wish it was twice as large, as I read it through too soon." We wish that we could afford to print a paper twice as large, but we cannot at present, and must content ourself with what we can do, for the present. The Pioneer-Hook and Ladder Com pany elected the following officers for the ensuing year, Monday evening: President, J. N. Kilian; Foreman, Aug ust Shaack; assistant foreman, Sam Mo Farland; Secretary, J. H. Johannes; Assistant secretary, Bert Galley; Treasu rer, Frank Falbaum. R. Jenkinaon, S. G.Saterlee, and Fred Asche were selec ted as a board of directors; The case of the state vs. Frank Schwartz, referred to in the Reporter two weeks ago, has been settled. The county attorney of Platte county with drew the charge of assault with a knife -with intent to , wound, and entered a complaint of assault and battery, to which Schwartz pleaded guilty and paid the fine of twenty dollars and costs. Madison Reporter. Some half frozen tramps arrived in the city Saturday- evening and -were given accommodations at the. jail until Monday morning when they were given a chance lo earn a few dollars working on the ice. - Much could be said both for and against, the tramp nuisance, but it certainly seems, a very- poor time of the year for.rae. to start out in quest, of employment.

Itwas soon found that Mr. Becker could not. recover, and he," realizing this fact, arranged ail his business affairs, and.patiently awaited the end.. iu.r. .reciter b ine ior many .years past Iwas very closely .identified with the his .tory of Platte county, and his many acts of unobtrusive ;enorosity to the poor. destitute and suffering will be cherished by.the recipients as among the beauti- i Ubc a nrtnritv wriioh- mo .,.,... j u The funeral which took place Sunday from the late residence, was attended by .. i i . . . u mrge numoer oi -neigUDors and ac quaintances, . the spacious dwelling- house being filled, notwithstanding the very severe weather.
