A subscriber of -Tax Joub kaii has asked us to look up the law and give a little summary of it. There is a provision against the disturbance of private ponds or water and it is lawful to remove or clear away any fish net, fish lines or fish pound placed or put in the waters of any lake, pond or reser voir. In the public waters of the state, the use of seines, nets or other devices except the hook and line, for catching fish, is unlawful the punishment may be a fine of $25 or imprisonment in the county jail not less than ten days. More than this, the statute expressly declares: "It shall be unlawful for any person to have in his or her possession any seine, net, or other unlawful instru ment or device for taking or injuring fish with the intent of using the same in any water in this state, and it is hereby made the duty of all constables, justices of the peace, and police judges of this state to prosecute all offenses against this act. Every seine, net or other unlawful deuce under this act fonnd in any water in this state or in the possession of any person intending to use the same in violation of this act may be seized by a person with or without warrant and deposited with a justice of the peace or police judge, who shall cause the owner or person having such seine, net or other unlawful device in his possession, if known, to appear be fore said court and show cause why such seine, net or unlawful device should not be destroyed." In all cases of condem nation seme, net, eta, "shall be de stroyed under the direction of said court." Gorton's famous New Orleans Min strels, 25 in number, all white men of established reputation in refined black face minstrelsy, will appear at the opera house Friday eve., Aug. 19, in a strictly first-class performance. It its criticism of this company the Helena, Mont., Daily Heruld of May 31st, 1892, says: "There was a well pleased audience at Ming's last evening. The program produced by Gorton's minstrels is decidedly enter taining, and embraces a beautifully dec orated first part; a quartette of good singers; excellent music; several good end men, Prof. Sam H. Dee in cornet solo. The Elliott Bros, in neat, genteel song and dance; Corporal Johnston in musket drill; DeWit Cook in clever In dian club exercises; Hnghey George in his monologue of absurdities; a beauti ful costumed novelty, The March of the White Hussars,' which introduces the quartette clog; a sextette song and dance entitled, 'Plantation Pastimes,' and Messrs. Griffin and Marks, the recog nized leaders of grotesque performers, whose success throughout Europe and America has been phenomenal, in their roaring specialty entitled, 'Fun in a Chinese Laundry.' These artists are guaranteed to be tho best in their line of business. This is the 27th consecu tive year of this company.' Columbus has a real hero in the person of a lxiy. One day last week Leslie Lehman and Lamont Inlay were down to the river alone wading, neither could swim. Leslie ventured a little too far, got into a deep current, and sank several feet. He sank twice and was about to go down the third time, when his companion caught him and suc ceeded in pulling him out. Leslie is about 12 years old and a good-sized lad, while Lamont is about 15 and not full grown, being no larger than a boy of ten years, and somewhat crippled in his feet. If he had been the same size and of equal strength of Leslie it would not be so heroic, but as it was, it almost seems a miracle that either was saved. Leslie, knowing he owed his life to him, showed his manliness in offering him his much prized, valuable bicycle, but Lamont would not accept it. The boys around town are loud with enthusiasm over the heroic deed of the one and the good heartedness of the other. Dr. E. Y. Haughawout is the oldest as well as the most practical dentist in Platte county, having three years' practice in Omaha and six in Columbus. He makes a specialty of rendering all dental operations in a careful and easy manner. He inserts teeth without plate, all kinds of crowns and contour gold fillings, and will in every case restore the beauty, shape and durability of the natural teeth. Dr. Haughawout has nine years' experience in all branches of dentistry, and if you desire a tooth ex tracted painlessly or a beautiful set of artificial teeth that fit your mouth or any dental operation performed in a superior manner, be sure to call at bis dental parlors on Olive st, next door to Brodfuehrer's jewelry store. The case from Burrows twp., before Justice O'Brien, on complaint of W. J. Roberts, charging William R. Jones, Willis Jones and Robert Evans with assault, resulted in a fine of $5 to the first-named and $1 to the last. The costs were S41.60. The testimony was conflicting as to the fierceness of the at tack, but there is no donbt that the right of the citizen to be absolutely free from even the smallest physical violenco was invaded. A long-felt want in this city has been a store where families having a surplus of articles stowed away in the garret or continually in the way below stairs could dispose of the same. I have opened just such a place on Eleventh street, and am prepared to purchase ar ticles of all kinds usually found in a second-hand store.

Anmist 13th. at 0:10, at his residence in this city, of cancer of the stomach, George W. Westcott. He was born in Rensselaer county, N. Y., Oct. 7, 1817. His parents moved to Oneida county, N. ., where he remained for 30 years. In 1B57 he located in LaSallo connty. 111. He removed to Nebraska in 1879, settling on his farm, two and a half miles north of this place. He had not been actively engaged in fanning for several t years before his death, in fact had retired to the city. Within the past year, he joined the Meth odist church, and was wonderfully sustained by his christian faith, during the trying hoars of his very painfnl illness. All his children were present at the funeral, four generations of his descendants being represented. He was 74 years, 10 months and ft days old. Sunday afternoon at three, a large number of friends and neighbors gathered at the Methodist church to pay the last tribute of respect to one who had lived among us as the friend of oil. Rev. J. B. Leedom preached a very appropriate sermon, and a large concourse followed the remains to their last resting place in the Columbus cemetery. The deceased leaves a widow and his sons, Lewellyn, George and Edward, with his daugh ters, Mesdames Frances Clark, Elizabeth Clark, Anna Salmon, Eva Nichols and Ada Miller, to mourn the departure of a faithful and devoted husband, and a trusting, confiding father. CAMPBELL Sunday, August llth, of liver trouble, Spenoer Campbell. The deceased was for years, the only colored citizen of the city. He was a, humble citizen, and we believe one who meant to do right. His illness was of several months' duration, and when he could no longer care for himself, com rades of the Grand Army looked after his wants, and, although he was not a member. Baker Vent, G. A. R., with the S. of V. drum corps, turned out to the funeral, which took place Monday morning. A number of his old neighbors were also present. Rev. Leedom, cliaplain of the Post, delivered a touching and exceedingly ap propriate address at the grave, and the old sol diers present were strongly reminded of the fact that, whether amid the storm of battle, or in the quiet walks of peace, Death is no respecter of persons.
