Rolf of the vicinity of Pales tine was a very welcome visitor at Jour nal headquarters Tuesday of last week. The county judge holds that there was no election of supervisor in Butler township at tho recent general election. The city has been pretty peaceful the last month, at least there have been few cases entered with the police judge. Frank Brindley of Rochester, N. Y., whoso very serious illness has been re ferred to in The Journal, is reported as better. Miss Grace Taylor taught last week in the First ward school, in place of Miss Wiley, and gave excellent sat isfaction. Burt Brown, a travelling man of Norfolk, well known here, passed through the city Monday on his wed ding trip. - Now is the time to subscribe for The Journal and the Semi-Weekly Lincoln Journal, both for $2 a year, when paid in advance. J. S. Hatfield was a visitor at the capital city Friday. If he didn't see the legislature in session, he saw a number of the legislators. John Tannahill returned from the Omaha agency with thirteen pupils for tho Genoa Indian school, and went back Thursday for more. The Platte Center Reporter savs that Mrs. Jillett, daughter of S. E. Phil lips, and now residing at Madison, Wis consin, is visiting her parents. Lost, last Thursday, between the Court House and my residence, a bunch of office keys. A liberal reward will be paid for their return. G. W. Phillips. Mrs. D.

Children Cry for 1 Pitcher' Castorla. jqifmK The Humphrey Democrat haB again changed hands, H. B. Ellsworth taking charge of the plant last week. The forty-eight car loads of stone, required for the basement of Humphrey's Catholic church, have now about all arrived. Humphrey Democrat. Young America I know my pa will go to heaven. Younger America That's nothing. My pa goes to Chicago pretty near every week. Detroit Tribune. Four freight cars were pushed off the track Monday night near the U. P. round house. No damage done, but il took about an hour to get them in place again. Miss Chattie Rice started Monday to teach the school lately in charge of Miss Wiley in the First ward, Miss Anna Hrehen succeeding her in the school in the Second ward. Robert S. Vickers of Okay was in the city Thursday, and with Landlord Mahood, called at The Journal office. He is a typo, who has been rusticating during the summer. We are in receipt of a poem by Marian Gray, our valued correspondent, for which we must find- space in our next issue. She has a very happy faculty of saying things in verse. The Journal hears of weddings and weddings about to take place, but as we always get our news from headquarters, or wait till the cards are out "this de ponent further sayoth naught." D. L. Bruen of Grand Prairio was in the city Monday on business, returning as far as Humphrey Monday evening, at which place he was to attend a meeting of the agricultural society of that place. Last year the Union Pacific shipped out of Platte Center 784 cars; shipped in, 125 cars; sold tickets to amount of Sl,295; received on freight, $10,132; ship ped to South Omaha, 137 cars of live stock. Representative Irwin is taking his share in legislative proceedings, having secured th passage of a motion requir ing the appointment of a committee to formulate rules to govern the twenty third session. A gentleman who was last year greatly afflicted with the grip thinks he has escaped a tussle with it this season, so far at least, by wearing extra heavy woolen socks, thus keeping his feet dry and very warm. Come in and subscribe for the semi weekly Lincoln Journal along with your Columbus Journal, so that you can get the complete report of legislative pro ceedings. Only 82 a year for both papers, in advance. Well, well, it surely is a satisfaction to find an official at his post of duty and ready to respond to any proper calls for matters pertaining to his office, and most certainly it is very annoying to find the opposite of affairs. Now is tho time to subscribe for The Journal and the Lincoln State Journal, semi-weekly, only $2 a year for both, when paid in advance. Begin any time, but before New Year's is an excel lent time to subscribe. The Journal is under sincero obli gations to those who have renewed their subscriptions the past two weeks, and also to those who have availed them selves of our special premium offers. Let the good work continue right along. The Nebraska Independent Press association will meet at the Lindell hotel, Lincoln, Jan. 14. Wo notice that Saunders of the Argus, and Sprecher of the Schuyler Quill are among tho list of those expected to entertain the meeting. Joseph Gardner, now of Crowley, Louisiana, whoso injury some time since we gave an account of in The Journal, writes to his son of this place that he is now able to walk around on crutches, and expects to get to work again shortly. Probably tho same burglars who broke into the B. .fc M. depot here were the ones who got into the David City post-office and Whips fe Zents' store in Octavia; at tho latter placo, they secured a gold watch, tho only valuable thing in tho safe blown open. Tho "Burglar" showed to a large audience last evening, and to say that tho audience was pleased draws it very mildly. No better company has appear ed in our city.ior years, and wo can rec ommend them very highly to our neigh boring towns. .Brookings, S. D. TnE Journal guesses that Colnm bns as a city is about as clean as any of them are, but it will be well enough to keep our eyes well open right along. Twenty-eight cases of typhus fever -were reported at Now York city the other day. They were all from cheap lodging houses. The G. A. R., Woman's Relief Corps and Sons of- Veterans met together last evening at their hall for installation of officers for the ensuing year. As we go to press Tuesday afternoons we can give no particulars of the ceremonies, but take it for granted that they proceeded in due form. Tho Colorado School Journal, pub lished at Denver, gives our former towns man, L. J. Cramer, high praiso for the work he is doing as principal of the Montrose schools, and as teacher of the high school, and makes the remark that his services are duly appreciated by Montrosians. In 1889 P. Janss, a specialist who operated in Nebraska took a number of notes of Burt county people, so says tho Tekamah Herald, and suits were begun last week to force collection against fourteen persons in all. The notes were sold by Janss to one Edward Hooper, and bear ten per cent interest. Tuesday evening of last week Wil dey Lodge I. O. O. F. elected the fol lowing corps of officers for the ensuing term: H. C. Newman, N. G.; J. A. Grif fin, V. G.; W. R. Notestein, Sec'y; C. A. Speice, Treas.; C. A. Newman, W.; J. E. Hoffman, C; R. Jenkinson, F. A. Cole man, J. A. Van Schoik and J. Huber S's. Mary, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Warwick Saunders, died Wednes day morning last and was buried in the Columbus cemetery Thursday afternoon, Rev. Elliott conducting the services at the house. The afflicted parents have the heartfelt sympathy of all their acquaintances in the loss of their pre cious child. The annual meeting of the Colum bus Driving Park & Fair Association will be held next Saturday evening (Jan. 14) at R. H. Henry's office in this city. Very important business is to be trans acted, and every man interested in the welfare of agriculture in Platte county is requested to be present. We are informed that Otto Olson, another of our young men, who like Mr. Taber, has grown from boyhood among lis, has been assigned to duty as a teacher, at Fort Coleville, Washington, for the instruction of Indians, and leaves next Monday. So says the Genoa Ban ner. Otto is a son of our former towns man, O. Olson. George Henry, of Midland precinct, tells us that ho has lost with the cholera all but eight of his drove of thirty-six hogs. There were in the bunch several thoroughbred hogs that cost him a good round figure. It comes hard on a farmer to lose his hogs at any time, bnt more especially when they are worth over six dollars per hundred. Schuyler Herald. The creditors of M. Stonesifer closed in on them Monday morning, and the store on Eleventh street is now in their possession. We understand that the ob ligations amount to about $1,500 and that the goods in store are worth about $2,000. The business has been carried on the past three years, and has prob ably been as near spot cash as any in the city. The creditors, we are informed, are all out-of-town parties. Friends of Mr. and Mrs. Stonesifer will be sorry to see them lose anything. The Santa Paula (California) Chron icle of December 30th contains the fol lowing paragraph: "Last week we men tioned the death on the 22d instant of the aged Centenarian Mrs. Catherine M. Calloway. Her age was 101 years and 10 months 'instead of 102 years as erron eously stated last week. The funeral took place from the M. E. church on Friday the 23d, Rev. J. M.Rich con ducting the services. Mrs. Calloway was a most exemplary woman. The Chronicle extends its condolence and sympathy to the bereaved family." The aged woman was a former resident here and at Bellwood, and will be remember ed by many of our older readers, among whom she had warm friends. Certainly her" span of life was very much longer than falls to the lot of the many who have preceded her. Thursday and Friday, Feb. 1G aud 17, have been settled upon as the days of session for the Stalo Press Association at this place. The session last year at Fremont was probably the best ever held in the state, all things considered and it is the intention of the committee to push right forward and upward, which is as it ought to be, each succeeding meeting improving upon its predecessors in everything going to make up a solid, business association. There are plenty of subjects of interest to the craft to fully and profitably occupy the time which they will have to give, and, in the meantime, this is one of those occasions on which tho city can afford to show its liberality, to tho men who largely have helped to make cities in Nebraska, by providing some token of regard for them during their brief stay in the city. Tho engineer corps of the Omaha Canal and Power Company are in the field between Arlington and Omaha, making tho final survey of the proposed canal from Fremont to Omaha. The company so far appears to be in dead earnest, and are apparently determined to pueh tho scheme right along. Fre mont can have a canal for power purpo ses just as efficient and at one-tenth the cost of the proposed Omaha enterprise. So says the Fremont Tribune, and wo say again that there is no place along the line so favorable as Columbus for a canal water power. The Palladian Literary Society of the State University each year, secures two or three of tho best lecturers that this country affords. Last year they secured Geo. Kennan, the famous Sibe rian traveler, and Max O'Rell, (M Paul Blouet) the noted French author and lecturer. This year they made the ten strike of the season in securing Hon. Henry Watterson, editor of tho Louis ville Courier Journal, who will deliver his celebrated lecture, "Money and Mor als," at Lincoln, Jan. 18th. Saturday evening last Mr. and Mrs. D. C. Kavanaugh were taken completely by surprise by a host of their friends coming in upon them, crowding their house and taking possession generally, even to routing Dan. out of bed to make them presents on the occasion of tho fifteenth (crystal) anniversary of thoir wedding-day. Among tho presents were a hanging lamp aud a glass water-set. The happy young couple havo the heart felt congratulations of their numerous friends. Fred Luckoy, jr., had a run-off Thursday. Ho had been unloading a big load of cobs, and the lines were fastened to tho top box, but tho horses became snddenly frightened at some thing, pulled the lines loose .and wore beyond control of tho driver insttintly, and seeing his way clear he jumped out at tho rear, and was unhurt. Getting a pony, ho followed up and caught the team at Gottschalk's pasture, damage to wagon and harness, about $6. Every day is adding to our list of subscribers, but there is yet plenty of room for more. We give you now, The Journal and the Lincoln Semi-weekly Journal, both, one year, when paid in advance, for $2.00. Subscription can begin at any time. Now is tho time to subscribe. Tho Lincoln Journal is issued Tuesdays and Fridays, and will give you a mass of news that you cannot hopo to equal anywhere for the money. Both for $2.00. At the Teachers' Association meeting at Platto Center next Saturday, E. G. McCIermont is announced for a paper "A fair thing to bo taught in a public school"; E. Farmer, "The Art of Psycho logy"; Miss Ida Price and Mr. Lehman are announced for papers, without the subjects named, whilo tho papers res pectively are to bo discussed by Miss McGath, Mr. Dannalls, Mr. Schneider and Mr. Maher a solo by Miss Katie Hayes. The ordinary lead pencil nowadays is spoiled by wetting. Years ago it was a necessity to wet the lead to mako it mark good, and the habit of putting it to the tongue has been transmitted. It is said that in the schools of Detroit, Michigan, diphtheria has doubtless beon spread in this way, the pupils being furnished with pencils by the teachers, and then gathered in the evening and redistributed promiscuously the next morning. Union services were held in the Presbyterian church last week. The churches united on Sabbath evening also, Rev. La Vako of Wood River preaching to a large audience. The union meetings which are to be contin ued during the week, except Saturday evening, will be addressed, it is expected, by preachers from a distance, except Monday evening, which was addressed by Rev. Scott of tho Baptist church. On Thursday of last week, at her homo near St. Marys, Mrs. H. Brown died of Bright's disease. Mrs. Brown with her husband, are old "land marks" of Platto county, having come hero in its earliest days; and for several years they conducted tho Madison-Columbus half way house, a hostlery still pleasantly remembered in tho minds of many of Platto county's residents. Humphrey Democrat. Mrs. Hannah C. Shank, wife of the late Rev. Daniel Shank, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Samuel Johnson, at Council Bluffs, Sunday, Jan. 8, at 1 o'clock p. in. She was Mr. Shank's second wife. The remains were brought to this city, arriving yesterday afternoon, and taken directly to the cemetery. She was aged CG years, and was the mother of Mrs. P. Albaugh of this city. On Tuesday night of last week John Blake's store at Richland was broken open at the rear door and the burglars took five checks, amounting to $287.65 in all, and sundry small articles, besides postage stamps and small coins. On Thursday, after due process of law, Judge Sullivan sentenced the burglar, who gave his name as John C. Burke, to two years in the penitentiary. On Monday evening of last week Miss Sybil Butler, so says the Schuyler Quill, was the "victim" of a surprise party. Miss Butler was presented with a very handsome cup and saucer. The Quill says: "it was a very merry affair in spite of the fact of being a farewell. Miss Butler has won many friends in the ranks of our young people and her de parture is indeed regretted." The Madison Chronicle makes a splendid suggestion to advertisers, viz: "It is a good scheme to make yearly contracts for advertising now. Write catchy ads, have them set attractively and change them at least once a month, and you will be able to increase your business at least 50 per cent." We may be allowed to add "them's our senti ments too." Monroe is to have a band, having organized with the following: George C. Smith, president; F. A. Matson, sec retary; J. E. Sallacb, treasurer; R. C. Strother, leader; Chas. Kelley, business manager. The money for the instru ments has been raised. W. F. Beckett of Genoa will be teacher. TLooking Glass. PERSONAL.

Pollock returned from Sil ver Creek Wednesday. Mr. and Mrs. Sargent of Cedar Rapids were in the city Saturday. Miss Dora Jordon of David City is the guest of Mrs. C. J. Garlow. Mrs. John Imhoff of tho south-side country was in the city Monday. A. M. Jennings came down from St. Edwards Friday and visited with his family over Sunday. W. H. Winterbotham of Genoa passed through the city Thursday to Lincoln, going by way of Omaha. Mrs. George Matthews of Deadwood, S. D., is the guest of Mrs. Charles Matthews, for the winter. Leo Borowiak went to Lincoln Mon dayto take a business course at tho business college in that city. Miss Bannister, one of the teachers in Madison, stopped in the city over Sun day, returning from a trip to Iowa. Al. Rickly of Rushvillo arrived in the city Saturday, tarried over Sunday and started for home Monday via Omaha. Senator North came up Friday even ing after adjournment, and returned in time for the re-convening of the legisla ture 2 o'clock yesterday. Rev. and Mrs. D. R. Todd, who have been visiting with the family of their daughter, Mrs. Dr. Voss, return tomor row to their home at Holton, Kan. Senator North. Ed. Journal: I seo that quite a num ber of the democratic newspapers are denouncing our senator, Hon. James E. North, for his vote in helping organize tho senate. As I understand tho situa tion, there aro 4 democrats, It indepen dents and 14 republicans in the senate. No one of the political parties alone could effect an organization; republi cans and independents being a tie, the democrats hold the balanco of power. So far, then, as the few democrats aro concerned, it is a choice between two evils, and, acting on this principle, I think our senator has done his full duty, not only as a party man, but also as'a citizen senator. What right havo four men to block tho wheels of legislation, especially when no good is to come to their party by so doing! Besides, as a politician, under what obligation is Mr. North to the independents, anyway? Havo his political affiliations been with them in. the least? Does ho owe them anything at all? He is not my kind of a democrat, but I do like to seo fair play in politics, as well as everytning else. Simon. Tho following is an extract from a paper read at the Farmers' Institute, held in Arlington, Dec. 5th and Gth, by Henry Monke, jr., of Fontenelle: "Win ter or fall wheat, since it was introduced in this county in 1880, has become very popular with most of our leading fann ers. When first introduced into our neighborhood everybody seemed to think that tho idea of raising it in Ne braska would have to be abandoned; that tho winter weather was too severe, and tho 6oil not heavy enough to keep from freezing up, and thus injuring tho roots. But this is no longer a question. Tho experienco of late years has dono away with all this doubt. I will even go farther and stato that I believe there is not a man in our county that would come forth to-day and deny the fact. Its ex cellent growth, extreme hardiness and immense yield, which was from 20 to 35 and even 40 bushels per acre, the past season, all go to prove that it has como to stay." Fremont Herald. Y. 31. C. A. Tho shower bath is all tho go; if you don't believe it ask Tom Wilson. There aro special gospel meetings held each Sunday, 3 p. m., this month and next, for men only. All men invited.

Tho lecture will bo free to members. The concert will bo 50 conts. The opera house was crowded to the doors last night to see the special at traction, "The Burglar." Tho company put up a splendid entertainment and thoroughly pleased tho audience. J. Earl Barrington in the title role was great, while Miss Pomeroy as the bur glar's wife was fully up to tho standard of acting. Little Lessio Pomeroy, six years old, made a decided hit by his re markable intellect and acting. The company is worthy of tho patronage of the public, being made up exclusively of ladies and gentlemen and give a re fined and pleasing entertainment. Huron, (S. D.), Huronito. At opera house next Friday and Saturday nights. Notice of Dissolution. Tho public are hereby informed that the partnership heretofore existing be tween the undersigned, doing business under the firm name of Borowiak Bros., has been this day dissolved by mutual consent, Leo Borowiak s interest having been transferred to Joseph P. Borowiak, to whom all debts due tho firm will be payable and who will likewise settlo all claims. Joseph P. Borowiak, Jan 5, 1S93. Leo Borowiak. lljanSt Tho ladies musical society gave a concert to their invited friends at the residence of Mrs. F. H. Rusche, Monday evening. As these concerts are only given once in three months, tho invita tions are gladly accepted, and the spacious dwelling was crowded over one hundred being present. From the opening chorus to the closing quartetto, the program was well rendered and duly appreciated, as were also the refresh ments which followed immediately after. All present pronounced it a delightful evening. lireat Reduction.

The days are getting longer, and old Sol is seeming stronger. Tho limbs of man and beast are en dangered by the icy condition of the roads. It is during such times that a careful driver is worthy of his hire. The continued downward tendency in tho price of corn has caused tho shelling to almost suspend for a lime. otock cattle are doing well; the. weather so far has been favorable for feeding in tho corn stalks, and the stock actually look better than they did five weeks ago. If we may judge from the number of rabbits shipped from Columbus the past two weeks, it is safe to say tho orchards in this vicinity will not suffer from tho vermin for one season at least. Willie Browner went down to Fremont tho first of the year, where he met the other boys from this vicinity and where they are all attending the Normal. The year just closed has been a pros perous one to tho husbandman, and tho markets for farm produce have been such as to cause no complaint; whilo there was an almost failure of fruit, we believe it to be far better in the ond, for it gives the fruit-bearing trees and bushes a much needed rest, whilo tho housewife is preparing tho empty fruit jars for tho bounteous crop that will certainly come in 1S93.
