that: At noon at Okarcha there was one
man, in tho evening there wero 1500, and
there were three saloons and two gro
ceries in full blast, and a lumber yard as
big as Hughes's; Bont Speico has com
promised with the Town Co. by releas
ing 40 acres, which with three other
similar releases, givo the Town Co. ICO
acres, leaving Bont's 120 a valuablo tract
of land. Bont had a number of the
Platte county men helping him, but as
fast as they would dig post holes, other
fellows would good-naturedly kick the
dirt back in; crops aro well advanced
down there, corn being about knee-high;
they tell that R.T. Price bought a horso
for $70, rode him 12 miles, came upon a
nice piece of land, and ho remarked,
"Here's whoro I'll spend the rest of my
days." But it was an Indian allotment,
and his horse died. They say, however,
that he afterwards bought a claim; Jim

for his land in 28 minutes, Caldwell
made his in 25, every man carrying with
him a stake with a flag on it, ready to

long ago he saw Major J. M. Troth" (for
merly Indian agent at Genoa), and who
now lives at Accotink, Virginia, in good
health. He also spoke of Dr. Davis liv
ing somewhere in western New York.

has thus kept track of a number of his
old acquaintances here. He was looking
in excellent health and spirits, and said
he had wonderfully enjoyed his trip.
The circus of Lemen Bros, was very
well attended Monday, notwithstanding
that the weather was very fine, and
about the first such we had had for corn
planting. The big elephant was there,
with' the lesser animals; the acrobats
were fine; tho tight-wire man, and tho
man who danced a barrel and a table in
the air with his feet, did their part to
perfection; the band played excellently
well, and even the "hawkers" of candy
and pop-corn and the after-concert
tickets were only modestly clamorous
for patronage. All in all, the show vas
fairly good.
Joseph Drawis, a German aged 22
years, about 6 feet tall, weight 190 lbs.,

We want every mother to know that
croup can be prevented. True croup
never appears without a warning. The
first symptom is hoarseness; then the
child appears to have taken a cold or a
cold may have accompanied the hoarse
ness from the start After that a pe
culiar rough cough is developed, which
is followed by the croup. The time to
act is when the child first becomes
hoarse; a few doses of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy will prevent the attack.
Even after a rough cough has appeared
the disease may be prevented by using
this remedy as directed. It has never
been known to fail. 25 cent, 50 cent
and $1 bottles for sale by C. E. Pollock
& Co. and Dr. Heintz, druggists, tf
There is no danger from whooping
cough when Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy is freely given. It liquefies the
tough, tenacious mucus and aids in its
expectoration. It also lessens the se
verity and frequency of the paroxysms
of coughing, and insures a speedy re
covery. There is not the least danger
in giving it to children or babies, as it
contains no injurious substance. 50 cent
bottles for sale by C. E. Pollock k. Co.
and Dr. Heinz, Druggists. tf
Some foolish people allow a cough
to run until it gets beyond the reach of
medicine. They often say, "Oh, it will
wear away, but in most cases it wears
them away. Could they be induced to
try the successful medicine called
Kemp's Balsam, which is sold on a posi
tive guarantee to cure, they would im
mediately see the excellent effect after
takfng the first dose. Price 50c and $1.
Trial size free. At all druggists. 33-y

Brave, and sincerely mourn his departure.
Ho leaves a widow and ilaiiRhter whose homo
is in California, and who were probably not
aware of Mr. Stevens's serious illness. His
wife's sister, Mrs. Knisely, was present at tho
funeral.
March 5, I860, Mr. Stevens was, with John
Rickly and M. Wearer, chosen as member of the
school board, the first in Platte connty. In Oc
tober of that year, at tho first enumeration, it
was learned that there were sixty-six pupils in
tiio county. History says that Mr. Stevens "re
ceived a school order for $C7.t."i, his pay being at
the rate of $1 per day, and he is honored by being
the first school teacher and a faithful one."
He was far in advance of that time, says ono of
our older citizens, and advocated many method
of instruction that have since been adopted by
educators. We know that he was an enthusias
tic lover of young people, and an ardent advo
cate for every practical means for their mental
improvement.
An honest man, ono hating shams and hypoc
risy of all kinds, and loving good, honast. plain
people, has gone from among us. May tho mem
ory ot his many virtues be cherished by those
who enjoyed his friendship.
