Tho Columbus Maennerchor and
friends to the number of a hundred and
fifty, accompanied by the Cornet Band,
went to Seward Sunday to enjoy a
basket pie-nic. The Grand Island
Liederkranz were also there with two
hundred and eighty people and a brass
band. Our folks rendered five songs of
their own, Grand" Island four, and the
two societies together, three. The
music of tho singing societies aud the
bands was extra good, as it always is.
One of the amusing incidents was the
return of a iiag which the Maennerchor
made thiee years ago for display at the
S&nggerfest at Grand Island. They
had used a long fish-pole as a staff. The
other day in rummaging round, the
Liederkranz unearthed the old banner,
added to the lettering on it "Lost in
18S9, and in 1892 found again," and the
president of the Liederkranz presented
it to the Mnmnerchor in a humorous
speech in German, which our informant
says must have been very entertaining,
judging by tho laughter which it elicited.
It is not known what became of the ilag
staff, unless the president of the Lieder
kranz used it up catching cat-fish or
"suckers" in the Platte. The train re
turned here by 10 o'clock in the evening.
Marshal Wilder, of Brattleboro,
Vermont, arrived in tVe city Sunday
week and visited with his old-time

out into the Shell Creek valley and
around, and he thinks this is the best
farming country he ever 6aw in his life.
Snch land, within three miles of Brat
tleliore, wonld sell for $300 an acre, he
says. Mr. Wilder is a staunch repub
lican, and says that the policy ot reci
procity is of unbounded benefit to the
country. The factory as close to the
farm as possible is the true theory. The
county in which Mr. Wilder lives has
five savings banks. No deposit is al
lowed of a larger sum than $1500, and
these banks have deposits of five' mil
lion dollars, mostly the accnmulations
of working people, who have work to do
and receive good pay for it as the result
of the republican policy of protection.

Old SttIerV Picnic
The second annual picnic of the Old
Settlers and their families was cele
brated in the opera house last Wed
nesday. In the afternoon the pioneers enjoyed
recalling incidents that to the younger
generation of today would seem impos
sible in this bright and prosperous com
munity of ours. Soon these pioueers
will all have passed away and the stories
told will be as legends.
About (io'clock the two long tables
ladoned with luxuries that did not visit
many homes in Platte county thirty
years ago, were surrounded with happy
faces and light hearts.
About 8 o'clock the tables were cleared
away preparatory to speaking. The
chairman, C. A. Speice, first introduced
W. B. Dale, who made an eloquent
speech appropriate to tho occasion. He
said there were many present who owed
the honor of being memliers of the asso
ciation, as they did all the good things
of this life, to their wives. He was one
of these. He spoke of many interesting
things and had the close attention of
audience.
Prof. L. J. Cramer was then intro
duced. He said he had noticed that
pioneer life meant about the same in all
localities; he had heard his father tell of
early life in Ohio and it was very much
like that in Nebraska. He spoke of
their hardships in general, and of the
wonderful change. His speech was very
fine.
H. J. Hudson, one of the pioneers,
then spoke principally of the thirteen
who had passed away since the last an
nual meeting. He said J. P. Becker was
one of the organizers of the association
and was very anxious that it should be
perpetuated as it was the only thing
that would keep tho interest they should
have in each other. Jacob Ernst was
the first blacksmith in the town, G. W.
Stevens the first teacher and always
ready to help those in need. He gave
the following names of those who had
passed away during the year: Franz
Henggeler, Mrs. Patrick Murray, Edwin
Ahrens, J. P. Becker, Jacob Ernst, J. F.
Shaad, Martin Heintz, G. W. Stevens,
Mr. R,eise, Mrs. James Carrig, Mr. Mohl
man, Mrs. Heibel.
He gave the women great credit for
their bravery and courage during those
trying days. He was listened to with
great interest.
After the speaking, the chairs were
cleared away and old and young all par
ticipated in dancing until midnight.
XOTES.
Mrs. Charity Kelley was the oldest
person present, being 83 years of age.
She has a wonderfully clear intellect
and rode nine miles overland to attend
the picnic.
There were not so many present this
year as last.
The Columbus orchestra furnished
tho music for the occasion.
A goodly portion of the crowd were
the rising generation, offspring of the
Old Settlers.
The expenses of the day were a few
dollars more than the receipts.
It is intended to make the next anni
versary the greatest in the list, and so
continue as the years roll by.
The Colnmbns Nnrnery.
Among the trees, the flowers, the bees
and the birds is what you drop into at
the Columbus NnrserjJ. The useful, the
indispensable, the ornamental are all
commingled. It is wonderful, the ten
thousand varieties of colors alone that
the sun can paint in a good-sized posey
field, and what a picture to the eye!
What a treat to tho nostrils!
John Tannahill owns 33 acres of land
adjoining the city on the east, and has
13 acres besides leased, all of which is
in use, for business. After July 1st,
Bert Morton and Ed Marmoy will have
a half interest in all that is raised on the
place, and the business will be carried
forward on the same principles of com
mon sense and fair dealing that have
characterized Mr. Tannahill's conduct
of it from tho start.
. It would take an entire page of The
Jourxal to describe the Nursery, and
we will attempt nothing. more than a
few hints.
Cherry trees are bearing at three and
and four years of age.
Strawberries planted, spring of 1891,
are now bearing as lustily as they ever
will, last year being a most excellent one
for starting. The patch yields 100
quarts a day now, the demand being
more than equal to the supply which
is the case also with raspberries.
Of 1500 grape cuttings put out, spring
of 'Ql, there was just one that didn't
grow, and two-thirds of the number will
bear grapes this year. Mr. Tannahill
considers the Niagara the best white
grape there is. The season of 1, the
Conord was a drug on the market at 20
cents a basket, while the Niagara
brought 50 cents and the demand much
beyond the supply. The Niagara needs
more protection in winter than the
Concord.
They grow their own stock from the
seed, believing that thus it gets accli
mated, and besides can be transplanted
when weather is favorable, and you
know always what you've got.
It is wonderful the number of trees
that can be grown from the seed on a
mall tract of land. They raised in rows
sixty -rods long, maples VCffXS to the
row, and sold this spring 100,000,-26,-000
of them being to one nursery.
Sweet corn, early and late, occupies
two acres.
An acre and a half is devoted to horse
radish. Business in this product of the
Nursery is increasing all the while, be
cause as prepared here for the table, it
is a pure product. Mr. Tannahill says
that there would be money to raise the
roots for sale.
Seven acres are devoted this year to
potatoes and ten acres to small stuff,
one crop succeeding another until the
season is over peas are now growing on
soil that has raised a first crop of
radishes.
Mr. T. recommends alfalfa as a decided
success in low lands. In dry seasons,
when even weeds wilted and died, alfalfa
kept green. It can be cut three times
intheseason; it stands very close pas
turing; cattle, horses and hogs like it,
and hogs in winter time eat the dry
alfalfa with great relish, picking it up
clean. Mr. T.tlirst learned this of the
late Thomas Bauer.
Five hundred apple trees set out
spring of 'SO liore some last year, and
will from all appearance yield 100 to 150
bushels this season.
Ono thousand quarts of raspberries
were sold last year, and there were not
near enough to supply the demand.
Pie plant forms quite an important
percentage of the revenue of the Nur
sery, being sold the entire season. In
former years when fruit was scarce, the
tort rhubarb began to be cultivated, and
it was developed into a very palatable
substitute for fruit, and now the irae
tice of putting it up for winter use
continues. Mrs. Tannahill, John tells
us, takes mullierries and pie plant in
equal quantities and cans them togeth
er, making a very good sauce for winter
use.
Top onion sets some seasons bring, at
wholesale, an much as $5.50 a bushel.
Five thousand root grafts of apple
trees were set out last spring, and fire
thousand three-year-olds will be for sale
next spring.
If yon get tired of life in town, go to
Otto Baker's, hire one of his mules, ride
down to the Nursery, look over the
plantation, hitch your mule to a post
and go into the greenhouse, and, espe
cially if yon bring away with you some
of the beautiful llowers there for sale, if
then you still think life not north living,
there is no hope for you.
Doubtless everything on the place is
for Kile, except the wife and babies, at
reasonable prices orders by mail
promptly attended to.
Grand Prairie.
A nice shower of rain would be appre
ciated, as the gronnd is getting rather
dry. Cultivating corn is the general
business of the farmers just now.
Sirs. Fred Luschsinger is recovering

Tho German Lutheran church is being

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 liccomes
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. 00 cent

There is no danger from whooping
cough when Chambrlain's Cough Itemed-
is freely given. It liquefies the
tough, tenacious mucus and aids in its
expectoration. It also lessens tho 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 injuriousstihstaRce. 0 cent
