Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria. The Farmers' club met at Mrs. L. . Stewart's April 28. The discussion on Ornamentation of Lawns was entered into with considerable zest by most of the members present, and appropriately closed with an essay on the Culture of Flowers, by Miss Nellie Young. The Cultivation of Corn, led by A. W. Clark, was discussed quite freely, but no new theories advanced. R. W. Young, when telling us about the different kinds of. Bees," gave some interesting points. The difference between the queen and her workers is caused by the food that is carried to her. Some call it royal jelly. She has a sting but uses it very seldom. It was a surprise to some of us to learn that after all, the most important use of tho beo stinger is not tho stinging, but that it is really an exquisitively con trived little trowel, with which the bee finishes off and cajis the cells, when they are full of honey, and that during this final finishing stage of the honey-making, the bees inject a minute portion of an acid into the honey,which is in reality the poison of the sting. This formic acid is said to give to the honey its peculiar flavor, and also imparts to it keeping qualities. Next meeting to bo held at Mr. Carl Rhode's Friday, May 26. Those who expect to got pay for their lands or who have objections to make to the opening of the "Wenck" road should file the same with tho coun ty clerk on or before noon, June 9; this road commences at the northeast corner of section 4, twp. 19, range 1 east, and running thence due west on section line 1 mile, terminates at the northwest corner of said section 4.

After thirty-five years of continuous and succesful farming in Nebraska, Mr. Murray, who lives about four miles wost of Columbus, is about to retire. Well, what of it. Nothing, only that he has easily made S100.000 out of Nebraska soil in that length of time. It has been said that when Mr. Murray came to Platte county he had a shotgun and a box of matches. He traded the gun for 1G0 acres of land, and the matches con tained enough brimstone to keep sheol poppin' ever since. Be this true or not, Pat Murray is the most successful farmer in Platte or any other county in the state. Humphrey Democrat.

The Journal editor acknowledges the receipt of a card of invitation from Sup't True, who is doing such good work for Tecumseh, inspiring its thoughtful youth with an enthusiasm for learning, and journeying along with them in the paths of science. Mrs. Jenness Miller, who has gained some notoriety in her way, in an inter view the other day, had this to say of her sex, "which truly is very severe more so than the ordinary satirists are : "Don't you know," said the fair dress reform enthusiast, "that a woman can be better reached through her looks than through her intelligence? Don't you know that tho average woman in society cares moro for her appearance than for her soul's salvation? Why, I have known hundreds of women who would rather commit suicide than be come passee. I know this, for I have made woman a study." The Escape of the original colored jubilee singers will hold the boards at the opera house Friday, May 12, under the auspices of the G. A.

D. Perry. He seems to have grown stronger, but will always be help less to a great extent. Howells Journal. A safe must be a very good one these days to be proof against burglars, and if it is not that, it might best be left accessible to them, and some business men who have had their safes blown up, and don't wish the experience duplicated on them, put up 6ome such sign prom inently on their safe: "Not Locked. "This safe contains no money, no valu ables only account books and private papers." The truth is a sum of money is safer almost anywhere else than in the ordinary safe. Dr. E. L.

Omaha Bee. The following paragraph from the Lincoln Journal will be of interest to the friends here of Mr. Becher: "Labor Commissioner Erion took possession of his office yesterday and began preparations for a siege of hard labor. Mrs. Packard of St. Paul, Nelx, will occupy the position of clerk in the department, Mr. Becher will be re tained for a few days until thetiew oc cupants become accustomed to the workings of the office." GOTHENBURG-COLUMBUS. t'olaabu tieatleaea Ybit the Lively Little City la West Nebraska. Tuesday evening of last week tbo spirit of progress carried a delegation of gentlemen westward to Dawson county and introduced them to a very youthful, and, as yet, very small city of the plains, brought to its present proud position by the use of brains, energy, and money judicially invested. Later along, we could hope that the same spirit of pro gress may be heard to say "Gothenburg, allow mo to introduce you to Colum bus." The delegation arrived in the evening and after supper visited lake Helon which is the reservoir of the canal, and situated on the edge of the town and viewed the scene by moonlight. Wednesday forenoon the party were taken in carriages to the lake and several miles into the country, and were shown the manufacturing plants erected and under way. A brief description of the canal is that it taps the Platte river, and winds in a somewhat tortuous course along tho face of the bluffs for twelve miles, where it ends in a reservoir of 143 acres (named lake Helen.) Just such a lake could bo formed straight north from tho Union Pacific freight depot in this city, where the natural lay of the ground would make it a comparatively easy place to construct the south wall of the lake. The depth of the canal is 8 feet; width, 32 feet; fall, 1 foot to the mile; fall of river, 1 feet to the mile; fall at the wheel, 53 feet; capacity of canal, 2,500 horse-power. The fall of the water at tho power-house, into a turbine wheel about as big as a good-sized tub, gives the power which is conveyed all over the little city, wherever needed, for all purposes for which power can be used and right here is where tho modern way comes in, because this conveying is done by means of electricity quick, inexpen sive and very convenient. As is le marked in the Gothenburg circular, set ting forth their advantages, "a saw-mill located right in a coal mine could not possibly have as cheap power as a mill even five miles from a reliable water power. This is due to inventions and discoveries in electricity made within tho last five years." Tho accounts given by all who havo visited Gothenburg and Kearney, too, agree in saying that nothing can excel the canal-power scheme to placo the cities along these gently-sloping plains in the front place as manufacturing centers, and the situation of Columbus is not excelled, if equaled, anywhere elso in Nebraska. We shall take occasion another time to give additional items learned from the delegation .which visited Gothenburg, and to bo learned by a special reporter which TnE Journal will send out. Co lumbus MUST HAVE this power, to keep pace with the procession, and she will get it by tho active co-operation of her citizens who can bo made to see its great benefits. The delegation visiting Gothenburg were G. W. Phillips, J. C. Fillman, C. A. Newman, A. Boettchor, W. Saunders, E. J. Niewohner, A. and L. Jaeggi, and W. Kearville, to the first two of whom we are indebted for items used and to be used. The semi-annual meeting of the Nebraska state superintendents and principals association was held hero Friday evening and Saturday morning. About fifty educators were present and represented the educational portion of our state in a very creditable manner. J. T. Morey of Kearney as presiding officer, and Mrs. E. H. Bowen of Lincoln as secretary should receive much credit for their work. We would liko to give the account in detail as all were very interesting and instructive, but lacking the space, we are compelled to be brief. Friday evening at the Congregational church, "Graduation Exercises" and "Needs of Normal Training" and "Re port from National Educational Associa tion" were the subjects for discussion, all handled ably by the "pedagogues." Saturday morning the association met in the Thurston hotel parlor. "Should a Superintendent or Principal confine his Teaching to the High School?" and "Is Spelling becoming a Lost Art?" were the themes in hand. Discussion of the last named subject was led by H. R. Corbett of York, in a masterful way. The next meeting will be held in the fall at Lin coln. Following is a list of some of those present, wo were not able to get the names of all. Morey. Kearney: Fitzpatrick, Omaha; Mrs. Bowen, Lin coln; Bradbury, Wahoo; Pearse, Beat rice; Barr, Grand Island; Corbett, York; Hughes, Schuyler; Stableton, Lexing ton; Hornberger, Norfolk; Miss Clark, Fremont; Miller, Fremont, Colbert and Miller, Lincoln; Miss Gallagher, Cedar Rapids; Longuest, Fremont; Crabtree, Ashland; Biglow, Madison; Stephens, Fullerton; Courtright, Petersburg. Mrs. J. N. Heater, of tho Eureka Apiary at .Columbus, has gotten out a very neat and useful pamphlet treating on the subject of bee culture. Mrs. Heater is the daughter of S. S. Case, of St. Edward, and has been engaged in this line of work at Columbus for some years and has been quite successful in it, thus showing what a woman can do when she has the disposition. This bee business is becoming quite an industry in this state, and has proven itself to be profitable. Bees are useful not for the honey that they produce alone, but for other reasons that were spoken of by Mr. Masters at the horticultural meeting at Lincoln last winter. He had this to say: "Bees are as essential to the grower of fruit as any other one thing, and if we spray our vines or trees at the time the bees are fertilizing the flowers or fruit, we kill the bees." They are a great help to the flowering or fruiting of these things, as they Kelp to distrib ute the pollen as they go from one flower to another. As we get to sowing more clover and alfalfa, the bee industry will grow and become of added profit to individuals and to the state, and Mrs. Heater is doing her share in bringing this to the attention of others who may see fit to extend this industry.
