This is an uncommon thing for January, but we venture the ground hog will fool 'em and send them south again. A wolf hunt last week in Madison county engaged about 45 men and boys, besides horses and dogs. They circled and chased around 16 miles and succeed ed in gathering in and killing three tim ber rabbits. Commander Teeter of the G. A. R. was here between trains Friday. He said that if the weather happens to be good for travel Feb. 17, 18 and 19, dur ing the encampment here, we can confi m J dently expect a thousand visitors. The Looking Glass makes a pretty good showing for the business of that burg: 225 cars of grain shipped out since May 10, 1891, amounting to about $40,500; forty cars of stock, about $28, 0Q0 a very good showing for a little town without a railroad depot or agent. A card received at this office an nounces the marriage Thursday, Jan. 28th, at Beatrice, of Frank J. Robinson and Nella M. Hoisington. At home after Feb. 20th, Beatrice. Miss Nella's many friends here will wish the young couplo a happy voyage through life's many devious paths. L. J. Baker has received word that his mothor's oldest brother, who went to California in 1849 and settled in La trobe, had met death by poison, a ser vant having put arsenic instead of baking powder into flour in preparing biscuits for breakfast. Three members of the family died before night, and another was expected to survive. S. P. Curtis received the sad intel ligence Friday, that his sister, Mrs. Joseph Crosby, her husband and their daughter, had all died within a week, at the old home in Swanville, Maine. Mr. Crosby was 82 years of age, Mrs. Crosby 83, and their daughter, Mrs. Fowler, 57. The letter also stated that the grip is epidemic in that part of the country. Columbus is rustling to secure the next state firemen's tournament, and the News hopes that city will succeed in winning the prize. In that case, there is no reason why Norfolk's running team shouldn't take a hand in one or two races, with a good, big delegation of the other members of the department present to cheer them no to victory. Norfolk News. The Columbus Sentinel says E. Newlin Stout bids fair to become the poet laureate of Platte county. A great many people in Butler county will re member E. Newlin as the handsome twinwho once graced the office of the Peoples Banner. There is nothing bad about E. Newlin, except-in the fact that he has his naaie parted in the middle. David City Tribune. Allen Gerrard, in the Looking Glass, occasionally gives utterance to a senti ment worthy of universal commenda tion, and here is one: "Do you want prosperity? Then remember that God rules, and he has decreed that as you lift the man below you, so shall you rise. Is he poor? Is he weak? Is he sinful? All the more reason why he should be helped and protected." We see by the Evanston (Wyo.) Register of a recent date, that our old friend Norman E. Small, a former resi dent ot this city, has been re-elected chief of the fire department at Evans ton. It is, no doubt, a recognition of merit and faithfulness to duty. In the same paper we notice that the fire de partment of which he is the head, have taken action looking to the establish ment of an electric fire-alarm system. A Columbus man sojourning in Cal ifornia says that the country is badly in need of rain; that grain sown will not sprout unless rain comes soon, and the prospect is not good. Hay is now worth S1G a ton, and if rain does not come soon, it will bo 820. Oranges have been a good crop, but the demand for them is poor. In many parts of Cal ifornia there is not grass enough grows on a thousand acres to keep a cow alive. All the boys, who attended the meet ing of the Nebraska Press association last week at Fremont are loud and long in their praise ot Fremont hospitality. Our own and only poet, Bixby of the Sentinel, read the poem, which we print in today's Journal. The next meeting of the association will be held in this city, at which the newspaper people and business men of- the city will have an opportunity to show their good-will to the men who help to build cities and keep them in prosperous condition. About thirty farmers hereabouts have eignified their intentionof, giving tobacco 'growing a test this season. There is no doubt but it will grow good, that has been proven for a good many years. The culture of tobacco here, once placed on a solid basis, the land tributary to Columbus would be dis posed of in small farms and these would greatly increase in value. Small farms with a family on each would give us a hundred tunes the retail businese.which would mean a city here of considerable size. Avery enjoyable time was had at the dance at the opera house last Friday evening. It was the first of a series of club dances to be given every two weeks with instructions of Prof. Hoovy of Nor folk, who fn nishes the music, assisted' by J: A. Shuck of this city. Those present from a distance were Miss Beebe of Massachusetts, Miss Kittie Cowdery of Lincoln, Misses Clara Brown and Mamie Perkins from Cedar Rapids, Miag Clark from Omaha; Mrs. Backus, Misses Blackbara and Turner from Genoa, Hn. E. H. Chambers and Mrs. Charles Martia are deeervin the tha thanks ot the club for arranging the association. Children Cry fo Pitcher's Caeterla. UNCU SAJrSJVABDfl. A fresk Arrival ef Five Scare Aserigiaes Fer The Geaea latastrUl Scheel. Saturday afternoon last, Sup't Backus arrived in the city with 106. Indians which he had gathered together for hie Genoa school, on his trip to Arizona and New Mexico. Fifty-eight of thee vere Apaches, the others, Punas, I .tee, Chemehuebis, Navajos and Aralnoes. There were all sizes, and many ages, and among them a chief aged 19. They had been a week on the road, passing the time in two passenger coaches, and were looking no cleaner, to say the least, than the same number of white folks would in the same circumstance Some of them looked like very intelligent young ab origines, but most of them bore unmis takable marks of animal existence. The crowd seemed to be 'in good health and spirits none of them were sick, not even one of them having a "eold." Mr. Backus had acted as cook and matron on the route, and evidently had filled the two offices with good satisfac tion. He had been absent on his journey thirty days, and could tell a good many interesting things about the ways of living of the Indians among whom he sojourned. In that country there is no snow and rain, the Indians live out -of doors, and in cold nights they heat sand and lie down in it Backus did the same and found it comfortably warm. They gather a bean called tho mesquit,' which is their sole food. At-Genoa the new Indians had quite a reception, being met at the train by the Indian band .and escorted to the school building, where they were re ceived by the uniformed boys of the school, in open rank, with heads un covered, the band playing meanwhile. They were then taken to the dining room, where a warm dinner waited them. After this the photographer's services were called into requisition, and the work of bettering their physical condi tion begun in earnest. In the evening there was a dance, the music and calling being by the Indians, many of the new arrivals taking part. A good portion of Sunday, day and evening, was passed with an address by Mr. Backus, and songs and hymns, with instrumental music, which was enjoyed by the large school, which now numbers three hundred and sixty pupils. Columbus has a literary genius who occasionally takes time to write a para graph for the newspapers. The follow ing imaginative sketch is from bis facile pen, and we reproduce it from a late number of the Telegram: Little Max lived with his parents in the eastern suburbs, near the crossing of the Burlington and Missouri and Union Pacific railways. During the week he attended the First ward school, and as "early to bed and early to rise" was the motto of the thrifty household, 8 o'clock every evening found him in the fairy dreamland. One exception to this well nigh inflexible rule had been made upon Max's earnest, persistent solicita tion. t On Saturday night he was per mitted to sit up until the great Pacific fast mail should arrive at 9:05. The long drawn whistle sounded for the crossing. The night air. murky and damp, carried its muffled tones across the low, bleak prairie, through and past the bright cottages where youth and health and happy household reigned, and on, into the sick chamber, where silent watchers sat with reverend awe. A wistful, earnest gleam of recognitionJ and appreciation lighted up the little wan, wasted face; the luminous orbs, whose fever heated brilliancy painfully contrasted the emaciated tenement, opened wide, and the little voice whis Dfir&d "The Fast Mail, Mamma?" "Yes, dear," and the agonized mother pressed a kiss to the brow upon which the mist of death was hovering. "I was waiting for it, mamma." A smile was transfixed upon the little face. The little hands untwined from around the mother's neck, the little limbs gave one convulsive shudder, the little spirit was in the great white beyond. Two short, sharp whistles; the mighty throbs of the great engine reverberated through the chamber of death tho Fast Mail passed the crossing and glided up to the station, all oblivious of the bright, young life that went out with its evening advent. A Horrible Death. Thursday night, a negro named H. C. Wilson was killed in a railroad wreck at Gardner's siding, in which five cars of a freight train were badly demoralized. His head was badly mashed, left leg cut in two, bowels torn, etc The car (in which he was supposed to be stealing a ride) had lost its wheels and was pitched out from the track and squelched, the unfortunate man prob ably finding his death instantly when ho struck the ground. His arms were above his head, and he was so buried, becauso the undertaker could not bring them to the usual position. The man was 35 to 38 years old, had come from Iowa, was fond of the ladies, as was evi dent from a memorandum book on his person, besides photographs. In money, he had on his person a single penny. The corpse was brought to this city Monday morning, and an inquest held at Henry Gass's undertaking establish ment by Coroner Heintz and a jury con sisting of H. C. Newman, John Burrell, C. H. W. Dietrich, John Huber, Leopold Plath and G. W. Elston, the verdict at taching no blame to the railroad com pany. The remains were consigned to their last resting place in the Columbus cemetery Monday evening. "John J. Sullivan, our new district judge, has come and gone. This is 'the first time he has held court in this place and .during the week he was here our people were afforded an opportunity to make his acquaintance.- On all aides it is admitted that the impression he has made is agreeable. He is a young man on the threshold of his career and well equipped for the work. He appears to be a good lawyer, even tempered, fair minded and of excellent judgment. He has been able to at oncestep into the good graces of the people. Merrick Co. Republican.

And exhort ( swift repentance -' Old age. middle age. aud youth; Fluck as brands from out the burning - Men and women steeped in sin ; ., Meek the lost sheep of the Father, - Shackle them and briswtbem In; Working thus for modesfproflls, n Storing rust-proof wealth on high; ' Makes a muu full good while living ; First-class when he eomta to die. v Thitfn the man well versed in Ulacksioue Claims more than a passing thought; i le who stirs up litigation, i Rakes our fuel, keeps it hot. Chief among our great law-maker Hhlne these brilliant legal lights. Killing time, but "making records" In the legislative llahts. They are necessary evils ; In the economic plan, "' But the good of their exMtenco Has not been revealed to man. ' Then the doctor with his physic Has a place in life to till. With his nauseous prescription . And his purse-depleting bill; And the look of bottled wisdom. Corked with mystery alway. As be notes the patient's symptoms And ability to pay. He it is who comes at midnight. At a very sprightly pace. To assist Dame Nature's efforts To increase the human race: And through all the ills of childhood He is ever in demand. With Us deatho-pain decoctions Thatnoono can understand; Watches us through youth and manhood With professional concern, And is called for all conditions, From the tremens to a burn; And when tired nature calls us To oue last our dying bed, Tis the family physician Who informs us whon we're dead. And the butcher and the baker. And the peddler with his pack. And tho merchant and the banker All deserve a passing whack; Bnt yon all have come to listen For a melancholy word Of the man who wields a power That is stronger than the sword. In the mighty field of finance He is absent and unknown. And he treads a trackless desert. Hungry, foot-sore and alone. Barn to toil and grief, he labors. When the busy day is o'er. And the very night air quivers With humanity's deep snore; When the happy barnyard songsters Are at roost in one glad group. Then tho editor is planning For a brilliant midnight "scoop." Heavy are the burdens carried By this meek and lowly man. As he tramps the hill of knowledge, Twenty furlongs in the van; Mot alone his own shortcomings Has this cuss to answer for. But the sins of all creation. Dating years before the war. Then the griefs of small dimensions Ho must'bear from day to day. From the ones who take tho paper And neglect to ever pay; Those who owe. two years or over. And, when dunned, feel so abased. That they send it to the office Harked "not wanted," or "refused;" Men who havst a world of counsel. .. - And a thimbleful of brains, - . 'But come round each day to "labor" au regardless oi Ms pains." And the old back-number merchant, ' On 'whose ceiling roost the flies; He who argues that it doesn't Pay a man to advertise. Add to theso the country poet .-! Who, when some dour friend is dead. Sends a lengthy contribution, . With a preface at the head; Lines disjointed, dull and doleful. Misfit, mournful and distressed. But they please the friends and mourners, 8o are "published by request." These and many other tortures Fill his spirit with dismay. As he walks the plank of trouble. With the ship two mi lee away, Bat we know that whon the trumpet On the last great day shall sound. And the bones of all creation, Bise from oat the trembling ground. When nil men are called to judgment, To receive the final deal. At the hands of Him who sitteth As the court of last appeal, Then the editor who. dying. Pays all debtB,- including board. Will receive a. seat in glory. On the right hand of tho Lord. For Sale.
