what had offered him a big salary to
keep quiet A little exposition of such
methods of influencing public opinion
would go a much longer way with the
people, than mere general assertions
that call no particular person to ques
tion. Monday morning three companies of
the Twenty-first U. S. infantry, Col. Jew

from Sidney en route for Buffalo, N. Y.,

Duncan was born at Fort Concho, and
has never been stationed east of the Mis

land for oats. On the border of the
county near St Edward he came across
a man, whose name he could not give
us, who had raised last year a good crop
of winter wheat a thing that he had
been accustomed to doing in southern
Nebraska, his former residence. He
stated that where rye does well, winter
wheat will do welL By this token,
Platte county could raise excellent win

SILVER WEDDING.
A Complete Surprise that Worked Like a
Charm.
Mr. and Mrs. J. N. Taylor were each
completely surprised Monday evening,
being allured into attending a gathering
at Fitzpatrick's hall. The room was
crowded with neighbors and friends of
the worthy couple, who had been
brought together to congratulate Mr.
and MrfjTaylor upon the twenty-fifth
anniversary of their wedding-day. C. J.
Garlow, esq., acted splendidly as master
of ceremonies. Bev. E. O. Elliott made
some remarks appropriate to the occa
sion, and stated that he didn't know of
a better way for them to re-seal the
marriage vow except by the groom kiss
ing the bride, which was done,instanter.
Congratulations followed after the old
style.
Then Judge Post was called to make
the presentation speech in behalf of
citizens and teachers of the city schools,
which he did with evident feeling. The
following were the presents: Silver set
and tray; two sets teaspoons; butter
dish; stkmives and .forks; silver stand
and card receiver, by the teachers.
Mr. Notestein, on behalf of the Y. M.
C. A., with a neat speech, presented an
elegantly bound bible.
This was followed by a vocal duett
"Beautiful Sea," by Mesdames Elliott
and Toss, which was highly appreciated
by the audience.
A recitation, "The Inventor's Wife,"
by Miss Gallagher, was listened to with
marked attention, after which Mr.
Schupbach was called for and many
supposed that, as president of the school
board, it was intended ho should speak
of Mr. Taylor's services as a member of
tho board, but as he was about to begin,
he was also taken by surpriso and had
to face the music of a speech by Sup't
Scott, who presented him a gold-headed
cane.
The speech-making closed by a re
sponse from Mr. Taylor, who very feel
ingly thanked neighbors and friends for
the manifestation of their friendship.
The Columbus Cornet Band, assisted
byMessrs. Beckett and Perrigo of Genoa,
rendered some appropriate selections,
which, with a number of songs by the
young ladies and gentlemen of tho
throng, were highly enjoyed.
Supper was served along with the
music and everything passed off as
merry as a marriage bell.

"I have just recovered from a sec
ond attack of the grip this year," says
Mr. James O. Jones, publisher of the
Leader, Mexia, Texas. "In the latter
case I used Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy, and I think with considerable suc
cess, only being in bed a little over two
days, against ten days for the first at
tack. The second attack I am satisfied
would have been equally as bad as the
first but for the use of this remedy, as I
had to go to bed in about six hours after
being 'struck' with it, while in the first
