Meedel had a C5 pounds fish on the market Wednesday. One hun dred and twenty-five pounds is the limit of weight, so far as we know, of the fish caught in the Loup, but this of Chris's is away out of the ordinary. C. H. Swallow, editor of the Leigh World, and Miss Alwildia Mead of Mad ison were married at the home of the bride's parents, June 28. Both parties are known in thi9 county, and all join in wishing them much happiness. J. S. Freeman was at Lincoln Tues day to Thursday of last week iu attend ance at tho railroad meeting. There was no opposition to the north and south line from British America to the Gulf of Mexico. It is a grand scheme. C. H. Sheldon, who is frequently in the country, and is a close observer, says that undoubtedly small grain, espe cially oats, has been very badly damaged by the dry weather, but corn is, so far, looking fine, and growing rapidly. -Otto Heuer's thirty-eighth birthday anniversary came around Thursday last and brought with it the Maennerchor, who serenaded him with some of their choicest selections, after which refresh ments were in order, of course, and duly enjoyed. We desire that The Journal shall be intensely interesting to the people of Platte county. If you have in mind anything of a public nature that you wish to acquaint the public with, let us have it anything bearing upon the public prosperity. Willie Henseley, son of the judges, fell from a tree Friday and broke his left arm. Never mind, Willie, you can hold the firecracker in your teeth and light it with your well hand. And in this way you may furnish us with an item for next week's paper. Joe Kranse of Genoa has rented the Brngger residence, lately vacated by J. C. Swartsley, and will move his family down. Miss Bertha Kranse, who has been very sick for several months, will make her home with them. Joe will continue his business, for the present, in Genoa. Herman Luedtke's son Carl, aged sixteen, had his right leg broken Mon day of last week. Ho had just returned home from Stevens's separator, and was opening a gate, when his team took fright; he jumped upon the wagon, but was thrown off, not knowing just exactly how ho received his hurt. The Pollock party, after fishing sev eral days in northern lakes, arrived home Thursday night with an excellent lot of fish, about 150 pounds of different vari ties. Of course they were accused of having purchased them, but denied it llatly, saying that it was a tight squeeze to raise money enough to get home on, let alono to buy fish. - -About forty bright faced little lads and lassies assembled at tho home of Mr. and Mrs. D. F. Davis, in the western part of the city, Wednesday afternoon to celebrate the eighth birthday of Miss Laura. Many gifts were presented for remembrance of the occasion. Refresh ments were served and all went home "tired to death" about dark. Clark Cooncy of Nance county was in the city several days last week and gave this office u pleasant call. He moved from Fullertoii to his farm last April, and is now engaged in his old time occupation. He reports Will Davis and Ole Oleson, two other former resi dents of Platte county, neighbors of his in Nance, as flourishing finely. ook Losil OJLinside cover inted is ol First Na- lockerltook con- ax receipts, two ckets reasonable reward will returuf the jocket- probaily, onElev- ColumVis.

A citizen of Lincoln, under the apprehension that lodgings were getting scarce in the World's Fair city, inserted an advertise ment for a room in a Chicago paper. In the twelve hours ending yesterday noon, 473 replies arrived at the Lincoln postoffice and evidently the correspond ence has only commenced. Journal. A number of members of Division No. 1 of Platte county A. O. H. went to Platte Center Monday evening of last week to help organize Division No. 2, which starts out with good hopes and a present membership of eighteen. The officers are: Peter Carey, president; Ed. Higgins, vice president; R. C. Regan, secretary; Michael Killeen, treasurer. The main value of certain classes of newspaper items consists in their sug gestiveness, saying "Take heed," or "Go and do likewise." Such is the fol lowing: A little daughter of Joseph Van Zandt of Deerfield, Mich., was poisoned to death by swallowing corro sive sublimate from an old bottle that had been kicked about the yard for more than a year. On his trip south W. A. McAllister saw at Arkansas City, Kansas, a power canal five miles in length that had added notably to the welfare of the place. Lands that before could be bought for $15 to $20 an acre, run up to $50 and $100 an acre, and one man's land which could have been readily bought for $2,500 before the canal was projected, but $4,000 was exacted, aa the canal company had to have the place, but since they had acquired title to the quarter section they had sold one-fourth of it for $40,000. A few such rises in real estate in this neck o' woods would pay for the proposed canal. 'tJomr. Banli" ' one SrVbil eu r u ijile: n ior tap . fit i strtee :Jo; It was IsL NAL It 6eefns,-the Omaha' papers being authority, that Collector North has ap pointed his son, Edward W. North, chief deputy, and we believe that he could have selected no better for the place. Ed. is one of those quiet, steady, capable men that it is always a pleasure to do business with, and who will do his duty exactly; N. W. Peters, cashier; G. C. Potwin, bond clerk; Miss S. E. Hill, bookkeeper; Mrs. C. Miller, clerk; P. O'Malley, clerk; Will. Becker, messen ger, another Columbus man, who has evidenced intellectual ability and faith fulness to duty. Pat Lynch, chief storekeeper of the Willow Springs dis tillery; Frank Galbraith, deputy for the Albion district, a man well known and respected here, and who held the office before. We are told that on Tuesday night last men who are known to the police men were violating the law by being drunk and disorderly, but were not at all disturbed in their performances. One of the diversities of the occasion was shooting. One of the balls from the gun crashed through a pane of glass in the upper front room in the Ernst build ing on Eleventh street, imbedding itself in a partition door, at about the hight of an ordinary man's eye. If any one had happened to be in the line of the ball at the time, the crime might easily have beau murder. The foregoing rep resents one side; since it was placed in type we learn that arrests were made and that the law was judicially applied to the needs of the cose. The Omaha papers of Saturday give lengthy accounts of an assault upon J. C. McMahon made at 3 o'clock that morning by two men, near the south end of the Eleventh street viaduct. While he caught one of the men and raised him and was about to throw him over the side of the viaduct, the other came up and struck him several blows on the head with a coupling pin. This dazed him and he was robbed of $500 in cur rency and, he supposes a diamond pin, which disappeared in the struggle. Mc says he thinks the men could be identi fied, as one of them will bear the marks of the choking, and the other will also carry signs of the struggle. His injuries are not considered dangerous. The item in last week's Journal. concerning the purchase of a ranche by R. H. Henry was condensed from the Bellwood Gazette. Being at the point where Mr. Henry's present landed inter ests mainly lie we took it for granted that the statements were all right. Mr. Hen ry, himself, tells us, however, that, aside from the fact that he made an offer for the laud spoken of, near Rushville, and that the offer was refused, there was no foundation for the item. The business of au editor is to keep lies out of his paper, and when, perchance, they do creep in, to knock them out tho very first opportunity. L. H. North, on Friday last while driving his colt to sulky on the fair groiiud track, met with quite an acci dent. The cart was overturned, throw ing Lute violently to the ground, peel ing the skin off his nose, blacking his eyes and otherwise "doing him bodily injury," but luckily breaking no bones. In the fall, his legs became entangled in the spokes of the cart, and, had tho horse regained his footing before assist ance arrived, the accident would doubt less have proved more serious. As it is, Lute looks as though he had passed through a fifteen-round "mill" with Jim Corbett. One of our citizens says that the Norfolk banks are not loaning any money at present ; another says that the banks of Lincoln are not loaning a dollar. While this is the case, and while banks the country over are "shaking in their boots," the banks of Columbus stand solid on their foundations, having plenty of good deposits, and all the confidence of the business community in their methods of conducting a banking busi ness, and in their perfect trustworthi ness on general principles. Good solid banks and bankers are a very important element in the welfare of a community. It is not probable that another per son in Schuyler or vicinity can boast of as fine a patch of strawberries this year as that of Mrs. Elmer Davis in North Schuyler. She has a patch containing 1,000 plants, from which up to yesterday she already gathered one hundred and twenty-eight quarts, and will have plenty more of them. Tuesday she gathered thirty-five quarts from one end of the patch and yesterday forty-eight from the other end. The berries are the larg est we have seen. Schuyler Sun. Byron Dieffenbach is happy. For years he has been in trouble as to who would spend bis accumulated wealth when he departed this life. The follow ing cablegram from him Wednesday morning will explain itself: "Arrival ex traordinary at our house this (Tuesday) morning. Masculine gender, singular number, tough case, an exact counter part of his father; weight 8) pounds; father doing as well as could be expect ed under the trying ordeal." When in need of any kind of job work, calling cards, letter heads, envel opes, bill heads, statements, dodgers, posters, auction bills, receipts, notes, bank check books, scales books, pamph lets, briefs, circulars, or specialty work of any kind in the printing line, bring your orders to The Joubnal and be pleased, both as to quality of goods and work, and also price and promptness. Orders by mail receive careful attention. While there are no Nebraska towns or cities that we know of, that are puri tanic, there are none, perhaps, where the wish of the people comes nearer ex ecution by mayor and city council than in Columbus., Without undertaking what many might regard as impossible reforms, they do pay close attention to practical matters within, reach, and are looking after the financial interests of the city with commendable care. Flynn &. Schafer will give a picnic and Bowery dance at Stevens's grove, a mile and a half west of Columbus, on the Fourth. Everything will be done to make it pleasant and agreeable to all who attend. Good boating and fishing. It is the intention of the above gentle men to continue these outing occasions at Btated intervals during the summer, and will endeavor to conduct them in an orderly and pleasing manner. The Creamery Messenger concludes a notice of its suspension as follows: "The paper was started to enliven the dairy interests of this vicinity in par ticular. We trust this has been ac complished, partially at least Other matters at present occupy the time of the editor and proprietor, so it has been concluded to indefinitely postpone the the next issue." , PERSONAL. Miss Kate Early is visiting iu Grand Island. Miss Mae North is spending her vaca tion with her parents. Lincoln. H. Ozias and brother went to Sioux City Saturday.

Sheldon and son Clarence were called to Oberlin, O., Saturday, by a telegram stating that Mrs. Sheldon was seriously ill. Mrs. Julia Jenkins, who has been vis iting her friend Mrs. H. P. Coolidge and other acquaintances for several weeks, returned to her home in Madison county one day last week. R. Kummer started Thursday for Chi cago. Mr. Kummer deserves all the en joyment that can come from a view of the world's people and products at the great exposition, and The Jooknal wishes him a safe journey. Mr. and Mrs. Theo. Friedhof and fam ily and Mis3 Nellie O'Brien started for Chicago yesterday to spend tho summer. They have rented a house and intend enjoying themselves as if at home. Mrs. Friedhof's parents, Mr. and Mrs. S. M. Barker, are now there. It is very fashionable to be the owner of a bicycle in Columbus nowa days. In fact, to be found hobbling through the highways and byways afoot is to be classed with tho relics of by gone days. The bicycle dealer has found this a productive field in the way of sales, and our citizens are the happy possessors of somo seventy or more of these speedy implements of locomotion. When of a tine evening a string of lads and lassies go twirling through our streets, the gongs upon their machines signaling the pedestrian to clear the track, one wonders why they do not organize a club, elect officers, drill regu larly and together and in a short time be able to "dress up," as it wore, in line that would make the old vet's mind revert to the historic days. We make these suggestions because wo like to seo the young folks enjoy themselves on their bicycles, for no better or more in vigorating exercise can be imagined. Not young folks alone are taking a deep interest in wheels and wheel evolutions. We have just heard of a gentleman 70 years of age in Washington, D. G, who is an expert and graceful rider, and we have among us several who can count a good many years back since tho days when they played "three-coruored cat." And as there are handsome premiums offered for graceful and fleet riders by tho county fair officials, this preparation may develop some premium winners from Columbus. Joseph Henggler was in town Wed nesday and took out with him a wind mill, which will form an important part of a system of waterworks for his farm dwelling-house, dairy house, corrab, Btables, chicken yards, orchard, garden, etc. His supply cistern to be erected on a knoll back of the dwelling will be above the leve' of the roof of the dwell ing, so that water can bo readily con veyed to both floors, and the fall will bo sufficient for all practical purposes around the premises. There will be about two thousand feet of pipe used an 8-inch where the water leaves the cistern, and lif-inch at the outlet will make a satisfactory Mow. Mr. Henggler has seen such wonderful effects this season from the use of water on a limit ed scale, in the irrigation of land, that ho purposes, some time in the future to give practical effect to some ideas he has on the subject, and utilize the abundant water of Shell creek that flows through his farm, in adding to tho volume of his crops. We should say that his plans are perfectly feasible and that his al ready very fertile land would certainly produce enough more to richly repay the outlay in the first crop, to say noth ing about the after yields. It i3 certain ly wisdom in farmers anywhero who are so situated that they can irrigate all or a portion of their land without too great expense, to do so. Jlrs. A. C. Ballon. This lady has been a very successful teacher and principal of tho Columbus High school for several years past, and many will be the regrets that she is not to continue. Without having made application, at the meeting of the school board prior to the last, she was re-elected, whereupon she sent a communication to the board thanking them sincerely, bnt saying: " It is with regret that T ask for a year's vacation, or, if in your judgment this will not be for the best interest of the school, I offer my resignation."

On Thursday, June 2!1, at the residence of Mr. David Murdoek, Oconee, occurred a happy mid-summer mating. Mr. John C. Dawson and Miss Julia Murdock were joined in marriage in Rev. Robert Killip's happiest mannor. Tho ceremony was performed beneath a perfect bower of shrubs and roses, and was witnessed by a large party of relatives and friends of the contracting couple, including a few from Columbus. After the ceremony was performed and congratulations concluded an ele gant and sumptuous wedding supper was served, after which the bride and groom, amidst showers of rain, rice and roses, departed for an extended Colora do trip, including Denver, Colorado Springs, and points of interest in tho mountains. On their return they go to housekeeping on tho Hendrick's place, near Oconee. Following is a list of, tho presents : ('. II. Buschirmu, set of !ro.iri kuivos. Karl Buschmau, lamp. Mr. anil Mru. II.
