Yesterday afternoon the city began
to put on a holiday appearance." The
patriotic citizens decorated their places
of business and everything as put in
readiness to receive the guests.
"A Quick Match," as produced by
the Noss family is full of musical
specialties, queer looking instruments,
new songs, comical situations and
comical cl:-' axes. At the opera house,
Feb. 19.
The quarantine which was placed
on the residence of E. A. Searle, owing
to the appearance of scarlet fever, was
removed last Thursday. All of Mr.
Searl's family are now on the road to
recovery.
Among those who were admitted to
citizenship at the present term of court
are Joseph Sobus, Germany; Thomas
Frawley, Ireland; J. C. Willy, Switzer
land; Joseph Siemer, Germany, and P.
A. Anderson, Sweden.
Members of the G. A. R are looking
forward to the annual encampment
which meets next week at Columbus.
Among the numerous candidates for de
partment commander is Capt. J. H.
Culver, of Milford. Seward Reporter.
Prof. C. D. Rakestraw has resigned
his position as superintendent of the
Fremont schools. He received notice
from Gov. Boyd of his re-appointment
as superintendent of the asylum for the
blind, at Nebraska City. A lady is
talked of to fill his place at Fremont.
Wm. Hagel, jr., received a letter
from Johnstown, Pa., Wednesday, an
nouncing the serious illness of Perry
Loshbangh, who with his family, have
been spending the winter with relatives
there. We hope for Mr. Loshbaugh's
recovery, and trust that it may not be
so bad as reported.
C. D. Murphy has temporarily re
signed his duties as examiner of the
county records and his place will be
filled by L Sibbernsen, who commences
his duties this week. Mr. Sibbernsen
will assist in the examination up to the
beginning of Gus. G. Becher's term of
office, four years ago.
We omitted last week to note the
receipt of the Genoa Banner, the new
alliance organ of Nance county. We
have placed the Banner on our exchange
list, and it has our best wishes for suc
cess. The Banner is published by W.
A. Thompson, and the business men of
Genoa are well represented.
As we go to press the case of Guy.
C. Barnum vs. the C. B. & Q. railway is
on trial. This is an action for damages
and involves several thousand dollars.
This case was tried about one year ago,
the plaintiff recovering, but the verdict
was set aside and a new trial cranted.
The case is attracting much interest.
This office has just received several
fonts of fise new type, and now, with
new type and new presses, we are better
than ever prepared to do your job work.
We have also a large assortment of styles
and designs from which to select wed
ding cards, invitations, programs, etc.
Give us a call we guarantee satisfac
tion. Seventeen little folks gathered at
the residence of Mr. and Mrs. L. J.
Baker Friday afternoon about 5 o'clock,
the occasion being the seventh birthday
of Miss Byrl and the party was a com
plete surprise to her. She received sev
eral presents as tokens of remembrance.
Refreshments were served and all went
home wishing many happy returns of
the day.
A lady, whose name we did not
learn, was in the city Friday, soliciting
subscriptions and donations for the in
sane asylum at Lincoln. It is reported
that the appropriations for this purpose
do not half meet the demands. This is
not as it should be. The asylums
shonld be supported by appropriations,
and if there is not enough to go around,
reduce something else.
Charles Conner, one of the oldest
engineers on the branches, met with a
singular accident Wednesday. His en
gine struck a small drift of heavy packed
snow and a large chunk of the snow
smashed in the cab window, scattering
the glass over Mr. Conner and badly
cutting him in several places. He was
sewed up by the doctors and took his
regular run out again.
It is refreshing in these days of
selfishness and perplexity to record
kindly acts to the widow and the father
less. Henry Routing, administrator to
the estate of Ernest Fiedler, has closed
all the matters up in a satisfactory
manner, the husband that Mrs. Fiedler
has recently taken to herself, furnishing
the money to liquidate all claims out
standing against the estate.
The Noss family who 'appear here
Friday, Feb. 19, come highly recommen
ded by the press. The Norfolk, Va.,
Courier Bays of them: "The Noss fam
ily appeared at the Academy of Music
Last night before a delighted audience
that was generous in its applause for the
many happy hits, novel points, taky
tricks, and good songs. The variety in
musical instrument work was curious
and catchy. Everything was clean
without being prudish."
Nearly all of the people who leave
Nebraska and seek some other golden El
dorado, find in a Bhort time that they
were mistaken and come straggling back.
The Washington boomers who left here
one and two years ago, are beginning to
return, and they find that Nebraska,
which they thosght was too slow for
them, has really made the largest and
most substantial . improvements. Ne
braska can miss every third crop and
then beat some other countries.
W. B. Doddridge, general manager
of the St Louis & Southwestern rail
way, was in the city Thursday last,
returning from a trip over the Union
Pacific system as far west as Ogden,
stopping off here for a day with his
father-in-law, Hon. Guy C. Barnum, and
greeting other old friends and acquaint
ances. Mr. Doddridge will be remem
bered by the older residents of this city,
as he was agent here for the Union
Pacific -from 1867 until 1872, shortly
after the road was built Mr. D. is what
might be termed a self-made man, pos
sessing rare executive ability and is now
at the head f a system of railway cov
ering 1200 miles.

is the sentence" which Judge Al-
imposed on Gus. Kohler, Thursday
n. The Judge also gave him some
fatherly advice, setting forth the
man's crime and telling him that
he should come from servitude to
k some other field; try once more ' to
a man among men; that he was still a
j
young man and yet had a chance to be
come a useful man in the. world. He
recited that the statutes provided penalty
of from one to twenty years in the pen
itentiary, but the court would consider
the youth of the defendant, and would
deal leniently with him. He therfore,
accordingly sentenced him to one year's
imprisonment in the penitonti ;y at
Lincoln, at hard labor, and no par jf the
time at solitary confinement Kohler
thanked the court for his leniency, and
the court again bade him be a good
boy.
A year usually rolls quickly around,
but to one in imprisonment, it doubtless
drags wearily along. We only hope the
young man may remember the advice,
of the 'court and profit by his sad and
costly experience. Kohler lias many
friends in the city who are sorry to see
him lose his liberty, while there are
others who think he richly deserves the
sentence he received. Altogether, the
judgment of the conrt is received with
general satisfaction.

Last Tuesday-night Ben. Brodfuehrer
found a. pocketbook on the U. P. depot
platform, the contents of which caused
his eyes to bulge nearly out of his head
with astonishment The pocketbook
contained about $900 in bills, nearly
$1100 in gold and two deposit checks
for 8500 each.
Ben. handed the property over to the
operator at the depot and the owner was
soon inquiring after the money.
It was found that the money belonged
to a Mr. Belart, who was on his way
from Albion to the Pacific coast Mr.
Belart is evidently possessed of a soul
about the size of a mustard seed, as he
rewarded Ben. with the paltry sum of
two dollars for his honesty. In many
cases the gentleman would never.even
have got the book back. Generosity
seoms to be on the wane, and the re
ward of honesty far below par.
Welcome, Comrades!
Today opens in this city, the fifteenth
annual encampment of the Grand Army
of the Republic, department of Nebras
ka. The Woman's Relief CorpB also
hold their annual state encampment, as
also do the Sons of Veterans.
For the balance of this week our city
will entertain no less than a thousand
visitors, and The Joubnatj bids them a
hearty welcome, and the city extends
them every hospitality. O ur guests will
come from every portion of the state,
and that it will do much towards adver
tising Columbus, is beyond all question.
Each citizen should act in conjunction
with members of Baker Post and do all
in their power to make the visitors feel
at home during ttieir stay.
We frequently hear of the woman at
the stamp window, or the general de
livery, and occupying the time, asking
useless questions, etc. Well, the tables
were turned last Saturday at the post
office in this city. Instead of a woman,
it was four Polander men and two
women, who were exactly fifty minutes
by the watch buying a postal note for
twenty-five cents to send back east after
tobacco seed. The men all wore the
typical old country bear skin coats '.villi
the wool inside, and in violation nf the
rules, were smoking pipes, which smelled
like a tan yard. Ladies stood waiting
their turn at the stamp window and the
business piled up just like traffic does
on a great railway shortly after a wash
out We don't want to hear anything
about the woman at the stamp window
any more.

The Noss family occupied the
boards last evening, and were greeted
with one of the largest houses of the
season. They without doubt gave the
best satisfaction of any company that
has been here for a long time. All are
good. No star supported by a number
of nonentities, as many companies are
that are on the road, but each took their
part well, and the programme was fully
carried out, Grafton will always give
them a welcome. Advocate, Grafton,
N. D. The Noss family will appear at
the opera house in this city, Friday
Feb. 19.
Albert Stonger who has been so
journing in California the past several
months, returned last Thursday morn
ing. He showed us some -fine samples
of Southern California fruit grown on
his brother-in-law's place, G. W. DeFord,
consisting of lemons and oranges. He
had some of the largest oranges we ever
saw, and had a branch cut from a three-year-old
lemon tree containing eleven
lemons, some green, and others partly
ripened, all clustered together. Mr.
Stenger says bis faith in Nebraska is in
nowise shaken by his western trip.
It was a gay and .happy crowd of
dancers that The Journal reporter
found in the midst of the mazy waltz,
at the opera house" last night, It was
the Pioneer Hook & Ladder Co's. an
nual mask ball, and was even grander
than in former years. Among the
gandy costumes we noticed the grotesque
and funny clown, the gay and festive
cow-boy, the sheeny, the flower girl, the
charming senorita, and many others.
All enjoyed themselves immensely, and
good order prevailed.

Death Destroyed.
CWrittenat the request of a friend of Mrs. E.
M. Whitney.
Death is a monstrous twin, a dual careo.
Most loathsome, and the sum of ill. One death
We chase and capture bnt to capture us.
The other comes unhid: most sinewed flesh
t-an only parry at his dismal court.
Death is a prison conditioned by -one fall
From Eden's fall, in which we join; an end
From sin. Strange loss from God! waiting for trial
To prove our guilt and pay worse penalty.
Death, too, lurks in the flash, inherited.
Poison of sin, the serpent's sting. 8ach death
That comes to all, e'ea though redemptive power
Has freed some from the spiritual death, makes
now
These daughters mourn and lowly bow the" rfend
O re flesh that spoke but cannot speak again.
Betwixt departed And her mourning ones
There is a present chasm. To bridge this gulf !
A noble impulse that all' mourners feeL
To part with flesh, as she, will that unite?
To answer would assume the bench, and judge
The quick and dead. Whither -the parted dead:
And what the mourner's present tendency
Or eventual outcome from the snares of life?
Perchance tn mf ,-nr farther unantal
No doubt will judgment part the dearest Irin,
Some to reward, some reap the ends from sin.
Would sueli consume the bridge, and withered
hopo
Fall on the either shore, heaven or hell?
I thee, friend, to reason moro profound
Than. orthodox. Admitted: Spiritual death
