Alexander against Henry Reins, for the value of a mowing ma chine, was a case on trial yesterday before Judge Hudson. Platte Center has gone base ball crazy. Friday the Indian club played against their home boys and Sunday the Newman Grove nine played there. The Odd Fellows1 picnic Thursday afternoon at Buffalo park was well at tended, notwithstanding the intense heat. A very pleasant time is reported. Mrs. John Wiggins received a tele gram Thursday last stating that her father, S. D. Metcalf, of Salisbury, N. Y., had died that morning. He was 73 years old. Mike Elel tells us that a swarm of bees attached themselves the other day to one of the horses of Joe Walt's team, and stung him so badly that be died in consequence. Wednesday last Nich Blasser fin ished the 1G5 ft. bridge across Prairie creek, for Butler township. The weather was so hot that the workmen dropped into the water about every half hour.

He He is now living with his daughter, Mrs. Clother, at Genoa. William Sutton, who had been ail ing about a year, died last Wednesday of Bright's disease and was buried Thursday at Okay, a large concourse of mourning friends following tho remains to their last resting place. Wednesday evening last there was a party at Abraham Scott's residence, given in honor of the twenty-second an niversary of Frank Scott's birthday. There were a score of persons present, who enjoyed the occasion. -Wanted, a lady or man in this sec tion of the Btate to travel and appoint agents for an old established house.

Interstate Co., Kansas City, Mo. 12-5t John Tannahill has received his ap pointment as landscape gardener at the Genoa Indian school, and went up Mon day to begin work. He will have the work of drilling the boys also. Mr. Tan nahill's family will move up in a few weeks. An authority on the subject advises wearing of flannel shirts for hot weather, and says they should le "transpirable and permeable to the air." "Starch," he continues to say, "is the greatest enemy to the comfort of mankind in hot weather." Tobnado, the storm king, is out on his summer tour, and may take a trip through Platte county, calling at Co lumbus. Protect your property by taking a "tornado policy" of H. J. Hud son, office on Olive street, opposite Me ridian hotel. tf Judge Hndson lined three of the rioters of Saturday week $T each, and one of them S3, but what was better than the fines, he gave them to under stand that they must quit their rioting in the future, or they would be more severely dealt with. A letter to a friend in this city, from Robert Craig at Harpersfield, N. Y., says that he spent a month in the hospital at Baltimore, and had his sight much im proved. He will spend the summer with his folks at Harpersfield, and re turn to Nebraska about Sept. 1st. There was quite an excitement in the city Wednesday afternoon, caused by the report of a boy having been drowned in the Loup. A number of parents were anxiously interested in the whereabouts of their youngsters, until it was learned that it was a, false alarm. If you are tronbled with rheuma tism or a lame back, bind on over the seat of pain a piece of flannel dampened with Chamberlain's Pain Balm.

Ice cream and cake will be served. The proceeds will go to the church building fund. You are cor dially invited to be present. Melbourne, the rain-maker, scorn fully rejected an offer of Sl,000for a rain that wauld moisten Wayne county in good shape. Has it ever occurred to anybody to hold Melbourne responsible for dry weather? If he knows the con ditions as a rain-bringer, why not be able also to know the conditions of rain withholding? The Times of Silver Creek says it is not disposed to criticise Judge Marshall adversely for his decision in a foreclos ure case against Ij. H. Turk, but says: "If the law will. help a rascal to rob an honest man of his farm, then the law needs revision." We don't believe that Judge Marshall would lend himself to any sort of villainy, whatever. The proof reader of the Telegram ("leading job print") was probably over come by the excessive heat last week when the "prospectus" of the Teachers' Institute was run off at that office. It is always advisable "to rise above the plan of mediocrity" and "posses" tho "principles laved down" in the best works on the art of printing, but espe cially so when you are running the "leading job print" and are engaged in work for a county superintendent of public instruction, when he "is endeavor ing to teach the teachers how to teach.

Ren a Turner accompanied her to spend a few weeks. Rev. and Mrs. O. A. Elliott went to Long Pine Thursday to attend the Chautauqua assembly there, where Mr. Elliott has charge of the normal Bible department. F. Melbourne, the "rain-maker," as he is called, was telegraphed Monday night-by Supervisor Byrnes, asking what his charge would be for coming here and guaranteeing a good rain. The re ply was from Cheyenne, Wyo.: "Good rain over county $2,500, selecting head quarters most advantageous to work from." A rejoinder was sent telling him to come at once, but at noon Tuesday (when we close our forms) no further word had been received. There is no doubt but we need rain, need it badly for corn and potatoes, etc., (the small grain generally, what is yet to harvest, would be little benefited), and many people are coming to have full faith in Melbourne's ability to bring rain. It is said that he has never had a failure sometimes the storms have bordered on cyclones; his prices having advanced from 81,000 to $2,500, it shows that his services are in increasing demand. Humphrey, f From the Democrat. Obe Terwilliger lost the middle finger of his left hand Tuesday and narrowly escaped the loss of his whole hand,while oiling his wind mill. George Willard of Columbus was in town Tuesday. G. W. Clark has stalks of corn in his field over eight feet high. Mr. Bernard Schroeder who died re cently at Henrietta, Clay county, Texas, leaves a large family, the youngest being a baby in arms. The ditch north of town is to start in at the track of the branch road and run east for two miles, ending in the slough east of the city. The machine that the work is to be done with can load a wagon of dirt in twenty seconds, and requires twelve horses to operate it Mr. Condon thinks that Columbus could just as well as not have a canal giving a water power with thirty feet fall, with an unfailing supply of water from the Loup. The standpipo at the city water works is 101 feet above the surface. From the top can be plainly seen, with the naked eye, Genoa, Schuyler, teams on the streets of Spitley, Duncan. The farms on the table land toward Rising are plainly visible; Kummer's mill, Mike Jibeis larm, etc. An eieciric ngnt or two on top of pipe, would make Colum bus like a city set on a hill it couldn't be hid at night. Messrs. North, Byrnes, Dineen, Price and Jchnson of the county board went out Thursday to view the land where a ditch has been asked for to make it available for farming. There are about 800 acres of the land, and lying in sec. 2518-2w., and 29 and 30-18-lw.; the ditch petitioned for will have to be about 2)a miles long, and running in an easterly direction into Shell creek. Remi Miller has left with us a sam ple of his winter wheat; this is the first he has ever raised in Nebraska, but is inclined to think that it will be a much better crop to "raise than spring wheat. C. C. Campbell.-near Osceola, raised last year thirty-three bushels to the acre of Red Chaff. Certainly this pays, and we know of a number of farmers who will sow some winter wheat this fall. DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION. The Democracy of Platte Meet, Consider, Differ mn& Decide to Sapport Reasler for CoagreiH and Favor a Straight State Ticket. vention met at the court house day at 10, and was called to order by O. S. Moran of Creston, chairman of the county central committee. R. H. Henry was elected temporary chairman and F. Bering temporary sec retary. O. S. Moran, C. A. Newman, Martin Maher, D. E. Campbell and G.B. Speice were appointed as a committee on credentials. They reported the fol lowing delegates entitled to seats and the report was adopted: Columbus: First ward David Schupbncb.. D.

While tho committe were considering their report, Judge Hensley was called upon and made a few remarks touching his candidacy and the issues between the parties. The temporary organization was then made permanent. On motion, a com mittee of one from each township and ward was selected by the chair to nomi nate delegates to the congressional and stato conventions. They were: Kavan augh, Davis, Gondring, Moran, Postle, Maher, Sullivan, Campbell, Schneider and L. H. North. After a considerable time they brought in their report as follows: Congression al delegates D. Schupbach, J. E. North, I. Gluck, George Willard, J. M. Gond ring, C. Brandt, F. Bering, O. S. Moran, John Moeller, H. C. Carrig, S. J. Ryan. State delegates R. H. Henry, J. B. Delsman, Jonas Welch, D. F. Davia, G. A. Schroeder, Peter Bender, jr., D. A. Hale, T. K. Ottis, H. S. Elliott, R. W. Gentleman, Diedrich Becher. Mr.Gond ring asked to be excused from the con gressional delegation, and Cornelius Hessacker was substituted, and the re port adopted. J. E. North offered a resolution en dorsing Judge W. N. Hensley for nomi nation for congressman and asking the delegates to use all honorable means to secure his nomination. Another resolution introduced by J. E. North did not meet with the same fair sailing, but encountered a little ad verso wind. Tho resolution favored a full stato democratic ticket, made np from the ranks of democrats who have been identified with the party. It seemed from tho discussion that D. A. Hale, who had been named on the state delegation, had declared himself in favor of fusing with the independents. He did say on tho floor of the convention that there was no show for electing a democrat. Mr. North disclaimed that his resolution was aimed at the electoral ticket, so that it seems tho democracy and independents are not without thoughts of fusion on the presidential electoral ticket in Nebraska. Mr. Gond ring supported Halo's view of the matter of sending the delegates to the state convention without instruction. They were all good, representative men and democrats, and he didn't see any use in assuming that they will go out of their way to work the party an injury. Mr. Davis thought the democracy had lost several district judges last year because they had no state ticket in the field, and the experience was such that for his part ho was not in favor of repeating it. It is the duty of the democracy of Ne braska to make a fight for the principles they advocate. There was only one vote heard, and that Mr. Hale's, against Mr. North's resolution. On motion of Davis, the convention then adjourned. The Alumni society of the Colum bus High School passed a very pleasant evening at the residence of L. Gerrard in the north part of the city,Wrednesday. A business meeting was first held. Miss Nettie Anderson was elected president; Miss Phoebe Gerrard vice president; Miss Martha Welch secretary; George Whaley treasurer. A committee of three was appointed by the president to make all arrangements for the enter tainment of next year's class. After the business was disposed of those present repaired to the dining room where re freshments were served. About ten o'clock the band serenaded the society by playing a number of fine selections. After supper was finished, the time was spent socially, in music and conversa tion. These meetings, so far, have only occurred once a year and are intended to perpetuate the memory of school days. The society has a large member ship; although all the graduates are not members, and many being away, the social this year was not well attended. Charles Davis is busy at work on L. A. Wiley's residence, and is just begin ning work for the Standard Oil Co.'e warehouse, etc., on west Thirteenth st , in Highland Park; There are to be three tanks with a capacity of 10,000 gallons each. Mr. Davis says there are more carpenters at work in the city just now than there ever were before, at any one time. laM 9Hm District 44 ui Vicinity. Wheat and oats are now being har vested. Rye, barley and fall wheat were cut last week, and a large portion of them are now in stack. The grain was good; a little rust visible in oats and wheat and a few chinch bugs in the latter. Now that 'apples, plums, gooseberries and many other fruits are a partial fail ure, the grape crop (which ia good) must be saved and extra care and attention given to the tomato plant, or else when winter sets in we will be without fruit and will have to go down deep into our purse to obtain the luxury. There was a raffle at Fred Stenger's last Friday night, where a yearling colt was the object contested for. We didn't learn the particulars, but was told that WUI Ernst led off the colt While in session last week the super visors sought to place themselves in communication with Melbourne, the great rain (dear) maker, who, they learn ed was then at Wayne, Neb. An answer to a telegram told them he was not there. Thus it will be seen that our represent atives have their weather eye open to onr best interests. We must have a shower this week or serious results will follow. Miss Alice Quinn, youngest danghter of Mrs. and Mr. Owen Quinn, took the train at Columbus Saturday, for Wal nut, Bureau county, HI., her old home, where she will probably attend college. The home of the Stevenson Bros., Clinton, Burton, Frank and Will, just over the county line, in Colfax, was made doubly happy last week by the arrival from Iowa of their lady cousins, the Misses Jones. The boys appreciate this visit the more, since they have no sisters of their own. This is positively the last week for sowing your buckwheat and turnips, and if you have not already sown them, do so now. Those were squash vines and not cockle burrs as first stated, that are growing in Fred Stenger's corn, simply squash vines. Is Columbus fully aware that within her corporate limits there resides a per son who, as a lecturer, is superior to Bill Nye, Mark Twain and many other comical men of brains? We refer to Uncle Bixby, and since being stricken with that rabid road cart, it has only added brilliancy to his words. He should be in the lecture field and advertised at the Red Horse of the Platte Valley. Every farmer's son and his best girl would go to hear him. b.
