Bissell of Walsenberg, Colo., was it pleasant caller at these head quarters Saturday. He was on his way home from the World's fair. Jacob Tschndin was in town Satur day, and his face was all smiles over the abundant rains in his neighborhood and consequent prospect of a good crop of corn. Those in search of a piece of valua ble Columbus property should not over look the offer of John Tannahill, as found in another column of The Jourkaii. tf Mrs. Gerret Schulto of O'Kay, who suffered a sun stroke about two weeks ago, has since died from the effects of it. She leaves a husband and six children to mourn their loss. L. H. Levie returned Thursday from a trip to Colorado, where he went with his father-in-law, Henry Loseke. Mr. Loseke remained in Colorado Springs, under the care of a doctor. Mr. and Mrs. Louis Weaver cele brated the tenth anniversary of their wedding last week, Tuesday. Relatives and friends spent a very pleasant even ing at their hospitable home. Those who have been through Den ver say that we have little notion as to hard times, scarcity of money, fcc. Ne braska these days represents great pros perity as compared with Colorado. Tuesday of last week, Mesdames Chambers and Roen and Messrs. Ander son and Lamb went to Benton and re turn on their bicycles, with only a half hour stay at Benton an 18-mile run. Fred. Meedel was in the city Satur day, accompanied by one of his young sons; he says the rain at his place Thurs day was very heavy, and the ground completely soaked no more needed for weeks. Mr. Rector says that in Decatur county, Kansas, his old home, they didn't have a rain for eleven months to speak of, and then all at once an abund ance, regular down-pours, every day for six days. JuHies McAllister was put under bonds on the 28th, by Justice Hudson, for an assault upon Alex R. Foster on tho 2Gth. Under a penalty of S200, he will appear to answer before the dis trict conrt. Platte county's teachers' institute is to begin Monday, Aug. 19. Wo are not informed as to tho corps of instructors, except that they ''have been engaged on the ground of thoir usefulness, and not for ornament." - Dr. McMillan, for a long timo the phyfeieian at the Genoa Indian school, was in tho city a few hours last Wed nesday en his way to Rosebud agency in South Dakota, to which place he has been transferred. -The young ladies of the Baptist church will give an ice cream social this (Wednesday) evening, Aug. 2, at the res idence of Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Way, ouo door south of the Baptist church. AH are cordially invited. Tho three hundred and fifty feet of temporary bridging put in on the Loup by tho Union Pacific company last spring is now to be replaced by a per manent structure, and the pile driver is hero for work on new piers. Tho prohibitionists of Platte county are called to meet in convention at Mon roe, Tuesday, August 8, 2 p. m., for the pnrposo or electing four delegates to the state convention in Lincoln August 23, for nominating candidates for county offices, etc. - Spurry is a now plant in Michigan and is recommended to all who are seeking a crop that will bo a fertilizer for light sandy soil, and at tho same timo be of real value for forage. How will this do, Bro. Baird, for reclaiming the sand hills? Tho David City News complains about people going in threes and fours on the sidewalks and not giving room for other pedestrians, who havo equal rights to the walk. Tho accusation is especially aimed at the congregated school ma'ams. Rev. Scott of the Baptist church closed hio services with the congrega tion hero Sunday of last week. He will servo congregations at Schuyler, Rogers and Octavia. His many friends regret his departure; his sermons were out of the usual order. Eighty-seven pilgrims from the west were fed and lodged here Thursday night, and sent on their way rejoicing Friday morning to Sioux City. They wero well-behaved laboring men seeking employment, and were much pleased with the treatmont they received hero. E. von Bergen received from his brother Ulrich, who has been in Switz erland several months, ono of their na tional Howers. "Edelweiss," which is valued very much. It is certainly an odd looking flower. It has become so rare in Switzerland that several cantons protect it by law. Gold Watch Lost. At the Bap list church, this city, Sunday afternoon lust, a gold watch, "E. T." engraven on the case: lady's chain attached, with a charm, a canteen, set with blue stones. A suitable reward will be paid for the return of tho watch to Wm. Lohr's. Mrs. Eliza Thomas, tf Henry Zinnecker preached Sunday evening in the M. E. church in the ab sence of Rev. Leedom. Henry is an earnest christian, and gives his listeners a better sermon than many an older and more experienced man. The large con gregation present Sunday evening listened with marked attention. J. C. Fillman's dwelling, also that of Fred Gottschalk, jr., were entered on Wednesday last by tramps. At the lat ter place, the robbers had a warm exit, F. Gottschalk, sr., doing the pistol act in five shots, making tho dust fly be tween and around the fleeing robbers. No telling how much was stolen in either case. No arrests. A very large crowd witnessed the ball game at Clarks Thursday between nines of that place and the Indian boys of Genoa which resulted in 5 to 1 in favor of Clarks, being their second out of three games played already in a con test, best three out of five. The concert of the Genoa Indian band in the even ing was well attended. The same old story was repeated at the Clarks Driving Park yesterday in the one, two, three order. The Clarks team winning in a walk from the Indians in a score of five to one. The Indians were not in it at any stage of the game, and the hard batting and all around good playing of the home team won the second victory from the Indians with ease. Another game will probably be played in the near future for a purse of $50, and will undoubtedly be one of the most hotly contested games of the sea son. In the evening a concert was given by the new Indian Cadet Band at the opera house, and to say the least was one of the finest entertainments ever given in this city. The new band nnder the efficient management of Mr. Beckett, president of the Nebraska State Band Union, rendered a program of very fine and difficult music which lasted for a couple of hours. The boys know how to handle brass instruments and will re ceive a hearty welcome shonld they choose to visit our city again. Clarks Leader. Wednesday evening a tramp stole a small clock from the kitchen of C. H. Davis in the eastern part of the city. It was not long before Charlie was out after him, and of course he was at length brought up standing and was turned over to Policeman Drane. When he neared the place of rendezvous of the tramps, the B. & M. round-house, he threw the clock away from him, and as Mr. Hurd saw where it lit, the clock was recovered. Nothing else was missed from the house, but the theft was one of tho boldest we have heard of lately. Several members of the family were in and about the house at the time. The tramps, at their place of rendezvous, are in the habit of building a fire, and have been known to have had a keg of beer on tap, besides other supposed necessities for a "ho-bo stew." 'We are informed that the clock thief was put into the lock-up Wednesday evening, and broke out the same night. We call special attention to an article printed elsewhere on tho value of trotting horses and the large sums of money given for show of speed. The raising of trotting horses has thus come to lie one of the great industries of America, and the Inter Ocean of Chicago is the first great daily to recognize the importance of this fact by securing as editor of a special department of their paper, tho services of Dou. D. Donnan, whoso employment by this great news paper is sufficient guarantee to its readers of his worth in his specialty We have clubbing rates with the Inter Ocean. Louis Schonlau has gained the name of a trick bicyclist, and it is a caution how the little fellow can handle himself and his pair of wheels. As for speed, he has made au eighth of a mile in 18 sec onds; he can stand on one pedal and travel, and while in motion, change to the other pedal and keep agoing; he rides his wheels and leads a pony; he made a trip to Humphrey and back the other day quite a lonesome ride for such a youngster. The Journal be lieves that Louis's equal would be hard to find in Nebraska. Tho residence of C. H. Sheldon was broken into Wednesday night, entrance being made through the dining room window. In the absence of the family, who are east, it was very easy for the burglars to seenre what they wanted, and the house was evidently ransacked, contents of drawers and trunks being scattered all over. Valuable furs and other articles belonging to Mrs. A. C. Ballou, (who left her clothing in tho house), are missing, and until the family return, it will not be known how much is missing. Somebody broko into Borowiak's saloon both Wednesday and Saturday nights. Some bottles of whiskey and a few cigars from each of a number of boxes were among tho things noted as stolen. No positive proof as to who did the stealing. Entrance was made from tho rear of the building, and on Satur day night entrance was offectod from the rear to the front room of the establish ment, by boring holes enough through the panel of the door to make a section largo enough for a man to crawl through. Saturday week a number of friends gathered at the residenco of Mr. and Mrs. Win. Schroeder, it being the fifteenth anniversary day of their wed ding, and the occasion was duly and happily celebrated, Miss Meta Pohl ren dering some excellent music on the piano, along with the other features of entertainment. The numerous friends of Mr. and Mrs. Schroeder hope they may have many returns of the day. P. W. Beerbower haa returned from a trip through Colorado. He mado an extended trip through the state study ing the present financial trouble. He says the mining towns are almost de serted, the men remaining doing nothing but standing on the street corners talk ing. The 6tate is in a deplorable condi tion. Mr. Beerbower's eon, Harry, re turned home with him, and will visit about two months. The Journal family acknowledge the receipt of an invitation to the wed ding of Henry P. Hallock of Omaha, Nebr., and Miss Anna Estella Billings of Ledyard, Conn., to take placo AugUBt 10. The Journal knows Hallock to be one of tho very best of men, and feels sure that he has found a lifo-partner fully worthy of him, and therefore ten ders heartfelt congratulations. At a meeting of the school board Tuesday evening of last week, Miss Mat tie B. Steinel of Iowa, was elected prin cipal of the high school, and Miss Martha Welch of this city as one of the teachers of a ward school. This com pletes the selection of all the teachers for the city schools, the others having been heretofore mentioned in The Journal. A very interesting game of ball was played at Humphrey Sunday between nines of that place and Platte Center. The score stood: Humphrey 1 0 0 0 0 C 0 1 x 8 Platte Center. 1 0 2 0 2 0 0 0 0-5 An excursion train of three coaches went from here, and there were proba bly a thousand people to witness the game. The Omaha school board elect special teachers, and name them thus: supervisor and assistant supervisor of music; same of drawing; same of phys ical culture. Our school board have special teachers of music and language. The Canal Bonds. The voters of Columbus township afro called upon to say by their ballots, on 'the 22d day of this month, whether they will vote bonds to aid in. the construc tion of the canal for water-power purposes. The proposition is virtually the same as that submitted to the voters of this city (set forth elsewhere in The Jour nal), except that the amount asked for is fifteen thousand dollars. The rate per cent is six, interest paya ble annually, on Aug. 1, bonds to run twenty years, with an option on the part of the township to pay them after ten years. It is a plain business proposition, and each voter can readily consider the mat ter for himself. The value of the canal, buildings, etc., when completed, is estimated at S150, 000, adding (at the usual ratio of assess ment as compared to value one-fifth) $30,000 to the assessed valuation of the township, thus helping to pay the bonds, after a start shall have been made. The assessed valuation of the town ship isS2t'346, say, in round numbers, $261,000, a levy of one mill giving $261. The interest would amount to $900 a year, and the five per cent sinking fund to $750 more, making the yearly tax to be raised $1650, which, divided' by 264 gives the levy, 6j mills. This would mean that, on every $1,000 of your assessed valuation, (worth $5,000 at the usual ratio), you would pay $6.25 additional tax, this rate decreasing as the influx of factories and other wealth producing, and wealth distributing ele ments are added to tho industries of the township. The canal-power would work a double advantage to the tax-payers in this, that while it will help to pay for itself direct ly in taxes, it will add at ouco to the value of the land; und (what may bo a weightier consideration with many of the land owners of tho township), to tho value of tho products of the land, or to the rental. Everybody concedes that a successful canal-power would make laud worth $3 to $15 an acre more than now. Certainly with such an added popula tion as factories would bring, the homo demand for farm products would bo enough stronger to add very materially to their market value, and consequently rents of land would be higher. There is no busiuess consideration that we know of, opposed to the voting of the bonds, and the canal should be complet ed at the earliest practicable moment. John Tannahill, one of the tall chiefs of the Genoa Indians, was in the city Saturday on business. He says that Dr. McMillan, who has been physician at the Genoa school for about eight years, has exchanged positions with Dr. Carr of tho Sissiton agoncy, N. and S. Dakota; all are busy preparing for the World's fair, the Hascall Institute, Lawrence, Kansas, being represented there now, and Genoa coming next, to begin August 16. They will have on the grounds an Indian school in session, together with Indians at work making wagons, harness, brooms, clothing, etc., girls as in tho sewing room and the kitchen, together with the band, making a good representation of the life, the work and the entertainments at tho school. Besides these, thero will be on exhibition sample articles from the work shops, showing the handiwork of the wards of the government. Four em ployees will be allowed to accompany the Indians, and their stay will be for twenty-eight days, the design of the government being to (five all who visit the fair an opportunity to see for them selves what is being done to better the condition of the "natives" of this country. Mr. Tannahill sayB the crops around Genoa are splendid, and there has been nothing to complain of in tho way of dry weather. He has on hands, last year's growth,, the largest ear of corn he ever saw. It is of Yellow Dent variety, with thirty-two rows, eighteen inches in length, eleven inches in cir cumference, weighs two pounds, twelve ounces, and has on it three thousand and Bixty-four kernels, large and deep. He will send it to tho World's fair. Antony Heitkempcr returned Fri day from his trip west; he wjis not well pleased with the looks of the country in Wyoming, Idaho and east Oregon too much sand and sage brush but western Oregon pleased him. Tho Willamette valley is a fertilo country, tho chief trouble in its advancement being that great bodies of land aro held by old settlers who will neither sell nor im prove. Tony says that within the city limits of Poitland are wheat fields of 160 acres, on land held by millionaires for future high prices. His brothers aro doing well in business, and havo summer residences at Seaview, a town ou the coast a hundred miles from Portland, tho resort of hundreds of business men of Portland during the hot weather fishing, boating, bathing and other amusements being the daily occupation, and this is the way Tony has been spending most of the timo during his absence. On his way back he stopped at Denver, the train shooting through a mob of five hundred miners; an invita tion to a lynching party was the first ''society" event occurring after his en trance into the city. Business is dull, all through the west at present, but es pecially so at Denver. It is with regret that we learn of an intention on the part of a property owner of Columbus township to opposo the issuance of bonds in aid of the canal power, on the ground that tho canal is not such a work of "internal improve ment" as is contemplated in law, be cause there is nothing which makes it subject to public control. Wo are in formed that the decision of the supreme court of Nebraska, in the case of Get choll v. Benton, et. al., 47 Northwestern Reporter, p. 468, is tho chief reliance of the opposition, supplemented by a de cision of the supreme court of Minnesota as given in 35 Northwestern Reporter, p. 366. The Journal hopes, not only that the bonds may carry, but that there may be found no legal objection to their issuance, and that the canal may be completed to the satisfaction of the com munities in interest and prove, as it cer tainly will, tho greatest single factor in the upbuilding of Columbus and vicin ity. We mu6t have the canal. Keener Place Addition. Lots regulation Bize. Title perfect. Price $200 to $500-one-fifth down, bal ance in equal, yearly payments, 7 per cent interest.
