To those who are on gaged in the milk or butter business we think it will be profitable to carefully read these as they appear. We note that Spotted Tail was one of the compositors on the Genoa Leader hist week, and yet thero are people who declare that the educated Indian cannot find employnient, after ho has learned a trade at an industrial school. E. H. Jenkins of Kalamazoo return ed home Wednesday. He had beon to South Omaha to purchase some stock cattle for his farm, but didn't find what suited him.

If you havo any objections to, or claims for damages in the opening of a public road as follows, be sure to say so on or before noon of March 13th, and file your document with County Clerk Phil lips: commencing at tho northeast cor ner of S. 1,T. 17, R. 1 E., running thence due south on section lines four miles and terminating at tho northeast corner of S. 25, T. 17, R 1 E., nnd known as tho "Columbian Divide Road." Last Sunday morning John Kra tochvil, who lived three miles southwest of here, left home saying that he was coming' to town to get some ammunition and that he would return and kill the entire family. After he left home his wife came to town and swore out a war rant for his arrest before Justice Walker. He must have suspicioned what was going on as he left at once for home. Constable Kuccra went out to serve the warrant and found Kratochvil in bed with a loaded gun standing near by, but Joe had hold of him before he could use the gun. On the way to town he told Kucera that he had taken poison and that he had intended to kill his wife. Upon arriving in town he was placed in jail and Dr. Wilber sent for. Every thing was done to counteract the effects of the poison that he had taken, and at first it was thought that ho would re cover, but between 9 and 10 o'clock on Monday morning ho breathed his last. The deceased has been in almost a con tinuous stato of intoxication for several years and has often threatened to kill his wife and himself. On Tuesday the remains were laid to rest in the Clarkson cemetery. The deceased leaves a wife and eight children. The woman had a farm left her by her first husband and that seems to have been the cause of much of their family trouble. Schuy ler Quill. If John Tannahill isn't careful, he will get into trouble this timo out, among the Indians. He described to us one time how the Indians at Pine Ridge came for their beeves. There is a large corral into which the cattle are driven. Tho sharpshooter takes a Winchester rifie and shoots down the beeves wanted. Then, there being two hostile bands of Indians, representatives of one band come in atone side of tho corral for their share of the beef, while their enemies use the other side of the corral, police being on hand between the bands, to keep the peace. On Friday last there was an engagement between the Indian police nnd Two Sticks' band, in which, it is reported, one of Two Sticks' sons and another buck were killed, and Two Sticks and one of his men wounded. This took place near the spot where four white men were killed. These had found Indians the day before killing a steer belonging to their herd being held on the agency for delivery at Pine Ridge. They threatened to report the Indians, which so maddened them that they made threats which they afterwards carried out in the murder of the cow boys named George Hadeway, John Bennett, Rodney Royce and Ed. Cochrane. John, come home before they get your scalp. PERSONAL. . RVon Bergen was in Madison on bus iness Monday. Albert von Bergen of Humphrey was in the city Tuesday.

A countryman was in town Saturday with threo turkeys weighiug 18 pounds each, intended for a raffle somewhere, and dropped into a popular resort on Twelfth street, suspecting nothing of wrong about to take place. After pass ing a few social minutes with jovial com panions, ho retraced his steps to the curbstone where he left his team and turkeys but found that the sack full of turkeys had disappeared and its place taken by an empty sack. He involun tarily oxclairaed to the crowd who were taking in the situation: "Be jabers, a man who will steal from poor people when he comes to face St. Peter, it will be hold up against him." When he found tho namo of one of his fun-loving neighbors on the empty sack, the truth dawned upon the mind of the turkey owner. Children Cry for Pitcher's Caetorla. Bogus souvenir Columbus coins are in circulation, and promise to deceive a largo number of people. One counter feit has a raised line across the face of Columbus, but has the regulation amount of silver; the othor counterfeit has only about half the amount of silver, and is poorly executed. They aro being sold by traveling salesmen, and all coins offered in such way aro sure to be bogus. An agent operated in Omaha the other day. Look out for him. Samuel Ed. Marmoy and Miss Ora Simmons were married by Elder H.J. Hndson at the residence of the bride's father east of tho city, Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock, only near relatives being present.

They were taken to the hotel and given supper, then locked up in the jail till the next day when the niar8hal,fcper instructions, took them to the train and turned them over to Super intendent Backus who was aboard, re turning from an eastern trip. Schuy ler Quill. The stealing of coal from theU. P. R. R. cars is soon to come to a halt, if indications point correctly. In the year '92 there was a shortage o'f over 200 tons of coal, and lately there has been on an average of about one car a night lost The company have been having a detec tive at work lately who beguiled fifteen into a building to get warm and secured their names. One man says he counted fifty wandering away from the tracks one night carrying sacks. The company do not wish to punish those who are not guilty of taking from the cars, but they want the stealing stopped, and will prob ably bring a good many to time. The Y. M. C. A. rooms were crowded Saturday evening with an interested crowd of ladies and gentlemen. It was a reception given by the association to the railroad men and their families. A short program was rendered, after which refreshments were served. Later in the evening several drills were given in the gymnasium room, by young boys, which was as interesting as anything during the evening. We might mention here that the gymnasium promises to be a great success, thirty young boys alone hav ing joined the association since the outfit was put in. The reading room is amply furnished with all the leading papers, and old and young can find many hours' pleasure in reading. Children Cry for Pitcher's Cattorla. At Fremont last week Franklin N. Dworak, convicted of issuing fraudulent checks and thus obtaining money under falso pretenses, was sentenced to two years at hard labor in the penitentiary. excepting Sundays, and none of the time in solitary confinement. Mr. Dworak is well known to many of our local readers, having formerly been an active young business man at Schuyler. Now if our prison system wero such that Dworak could thero earn what his native industry and genius, rightly directed, would bring mm, and that amount be devoted wholly to his own "keep," the decent support, or part support of his family, the remainder going to the payment of those whom he has wronged, how much better it would be all around! Miss Ella Lembach and Mr. Frank Rorer were married at the residence of the bride's sister, Mrs. J. C. Fillman, Tuesday afternoon Jan. 31st, by Rev. J. B. Leedom, relatives only being present at the ceremony. Mr. Rorer is a leading hardware merchant at Fairmont, Minne sota, and well known to Columbus peo ple as an excellent business man, having been a resident here. Miss Lembach has hosts of friends who know her as an exemplary young lady. They took the evening train for Chicago and other eastern cities where they will visit for some time. May their lives be as happy as the happiest, is the hearty wish of TnE Journal and the numerous other friends of the happy couplo. C. E. Early has opened out in the rooms in the rear of the First National bank, Twelfth street, this city, as a real estate and general insurance agent. In insurance he represents a number of the best, most reliable and strongest com panies known in tho country, and will transact business for them on strictly business principles valno received at all times. Mr. Early is a young man well known in this community, and whose business record is a very enviable one indeed. Being thoroughly informed in prices and values of land and city property, those having purchases, sales or exchanges of land to effect will do well to give him a call, tf Wednesday evening last there was another meeting held with reference to the Columbus Public Hospital project. The committee on organization made their report, which was accepted; one of the committee on finance was present, and reported subscriptions amounting to $250; the committee on building and grounds made no report several sites had been talked of, but no definite plans matured. It was the desire of the meet ing that the chairmen of the several committees call their forces together, and especially that the finance committee canvass very thoroughly by the next meeting, Wednesday evening, Feb. 15. Water powers derived from the Loup and Platte rivers are being talked of in more places than Columbus, Fre mont and Omaha. The latest is the Plattsmouth Motor Power company,with a capital stock of 8500,000, the purpose being to utilize the waters of the Platte by, a canal, for the benefit of all the manufacturing enterprises of that city. These schemes have to be thought over and talked of before they can become real, but isn't it about time that the first two processes mentioned should merge in third for these places mentioned? He hoTered around her and watched her eyes. And hung on each magical word And she was aware of his stifled sighs And the throbs of his heart she heard: And though nothing was said between these two. He knew she knew that he knew she knew. And that is about as good a aescrin- I toon of it ss you can get, C. O. Notestein aud family of Mem phis, Missouri, visited W. R. Notestein a few days last week, going on up to Fullerton, Thursday. Mr. and Mrs. D. Anderson are visiting Mrs. Whitney. Mrs. Anderson will be remembered here as Miss Callie Newell, sister of Mrs. Whitney; sho was married in Lincoln to Mr. Anderson of Beverly, nan., me ian or January. John Tannahill started Thursday evening for a two weeks' trip among the Indians at Rosebud sgency. John is acquiring quite a fund of information and a bundle of experience in his travels recently. Among the red men he always travels with an interpreter, and during his trips among the Brule Sioux he has been accompanied by a Mr. Walker and Joseph Rogers, both full-blooded In dians, both good men, and having an abundance of the truo missionary feelintr. giving or their time, thoir ability and their work to tho betterment of their fellow men. Mr. Tannahill thinks that the labors of these two Indians among meir own people do more good for them than that of a thousand white men work ing merely for pay. In nearly every place at which they stopped for the night there would be family worship, consist ing of reading a chapter in the bible and a prayer, conducted either by the inter preter or a member of the family with whom they were stopping. But John's experiences are not all of the pleasant sort, by any means. Some time after a very hearty dinner, during whioh one of the neighbor Indian women had brought in a large supply of meat, the man of the house asked Tannahill if he knew what kind of meat he had eat for dinner. John answered that it was jack rabbit it tast ed so good. His feeling was changed somewhat in regard to it when he was assured that he had partaken of wolf meat Of course if he had known it beforehand, tho meat would have been regarded the same as dog meat, but the knowledge came so long after dinner that the stomach continued its functions undisturbed by the tardy information. That country abounds with wolves, deer, rabbits, grouse, gray squirrels and some red squirrels. There aro so vera 1 coun ties of South Dakota that have no water except what they get from the Btreams and by artesian wells, and thero are run ning streams whose months empty a less volume of water than is found above, showing an under-ground outlet. Men will undertake to bore wells and guaran tee artesian flow for one dollar per foot depth. In some places township bonds aro voted for boring artesian wells, and large reservoirs, called lake beds, receive and hold the water until needed for use by farmers. It is a great stock country, cattle being brought in off the pasture (buffalo grass), in fairly good order and killed for beef. In some parts there are indications of the surface vein of coal having been burned out in a former age, and, strange to say, the Indians have a tradition that about a hundred years ago the hills were so hot that it was danger ous to follow the buffalo among them. John says there is plenty of fine slate and that there are abundant indications of mineral; that the boring of wells shows plenty rook of various kinds in cluding granite, but so far no coal.

Macaffie, who has been working for O. S. Christian on tho old Payne place got his right hand caught in the cogs of a cornsheller last Friday night and had his thumb and forefinger crushed and pulled out of joint at the wrist. The hand was almost denuded and some of tho cords and muscles pulled out of tho palm of the hand. Dr. Mackay am putated the forefinger at the wrist as well as what was left of tho thumb. One of the bones of the wrist was also removed to get skin enough to cover the wound. The hand was so badly torn that it will take a long time for it to heal, and it may be that anothor ampu tation will be necessary. Another victim of the deadly machine is Emery Penney, 25 years of age and lately married living in Voorhees Valley, Boone county, who had his arm so badly crushed last week as to require amputa tion above the elbow, which was per formed by Drs. Lewis and Smith of Albion. Madison Reporter. Weather Report. Review of the weather near Genoa for the month of January, 1893.
