The Madison county fair will be held at Madison, September 19 to 22, inclu sive. The management are endeavoring to make the Twelfth annual a decided success. The Jocbkatj acknowledges a ticket for two. The four-year-old son of Win. Bothe accidentally run a garden rake very nearly through one of his feat Sunday. The boy is all right now but there may be danger ahead as the wound was in flicted in the instep. Two men were caught Wednesday purchasing liquor and giving it to Mrs. Finnin. They were so badly scared when they found out what they had done that they left the town in a hurry So much of a board bill saved. We are informed that Mrs. Martin Postle has fallen heir to a large fortune. Martin used to think he was the wealth iest individual in Humphrey, but he must now throw up the sponge and give this credit to his wife. Humphrey Democrat. Chancellor Canfield of the State University sends out circulars correct ing the rumor to the effect that the school has received all the pupils that can be accommodated the coming year. Prof. Canfield says the limit is 1500 but that number has not yet been enrolled. We understand that John Walker of the Humphrey Democrat has pur chased the Globe at Platte Center, pub lished a few months by A. A. Parks of Norfolk. The paper was a newsy sheet during its short life and Mr. Walker doubtless will continue it with the same zeal. Gold Watch Lost. At the Bap tisBhurch, this city, Sunday afternoon lastTa 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 the watch to Wm. Lohr's. Mrs. Eliza Thomas, tf The N-W. G. Association held another one of their delightful picnics at Stevens's grove Sunday, and elected the following officers for the ensuing year: "Fatty" Curtis, president; "Turky" Hagel, financial secretary; "Boney" Clark and Marve Elston, amusements; Manie Elston, transportation; F. C. Turner and "Boss" Tschudy chief and second cooks. John Eisenmann has lived twenty two years in Nebraska and never had anything stolen until Thursday night week, when somebody took from his barn a set of new double harness. One of his neighbors, E. Charetsky, fared even worse, losing two set, besides two bushels of corn. Tracks were followed to Genoa, where another set was stolen the same night. One of the interesting cases before the district court during the last term of court was one wherein J. H. Plugge was sued for $174 on a note given for a lightning rod oufit. The party was naa med Goodwin, and he evidently belonged to the UBual family of lightning rod sharpers. Plugge claimed that the note had been tampered with and raised, and the jury so firmly believed him that they did not allow a cent judgment.Schuyler Qnill. L. H. North of Columbus, a brother of Collector James E. North, was at the revenue office yesterday morning. Mr. North is one of the pioneers of Nebraska and passed through all the hardships of early days, when it was a struggle be tween the white man and Indian for the possession of the country. He is now one of the horse breeders who are mak ing Nebraska famous, and some of his horses started in the breeders' meeting races. Omaha World-Herald. Thos. Wilson shows us a copy of the National Tribune in which S. F. Fleharty, formerly of Polk county, this state, now of Tampa, Fla., notifies G. A. R. posts in general, and the Women's Belief Corps of a vile imposter who palms herself off as the widow of Geo. S. Merritt of the 14th N. Y. cavalry. About a year ago some such woman traveled through Iowa passing for a Merritt, when the truth seems to be that she has no merit worth mentioning. The many friends here will be pained to hear of the death Friday morning, of typhoid fever, in Denver, of Mrs. Zetta Cooper, sister of Mrs. W. B. Backus of Genoa. About a week ago Mrs. Clark, Mrs. Cooper's mother was called for but it was not thought she was in danger until the last. Mrs. Backus went out Friday and the re mains were buried Sunday in Denver. Freddie, Mrs. Cooper's only child re turned with Mrs. Clark and Mrs. Backus. V-E. n, state agent foi Messick's pal t cooker and bake: located in C establishing bus and is desiro roughont his te: 8ub-agencii is now ready to into such ooi racts. Parties wishi: examine the can do so by call at the resii ce of Stephen Buzza Thirteenth immediately in of Basmussen's Here is a splen- did opportunity men or worn v out of employment make good wages. See the agent. The Genoa LeMer, of August 11 in a half -column article, gives the particu lars of an effort made to oust Sup't Backus from his position in the Govern ment Indian Industrial school at Genoa. The old charges, preferred by M. Y. Moudy in 1890, it seems are being made to do duty now, with some additions. Mr. Hodge and Mr. Bakestraw arrived at Genoa Friday evening. The last mentioned is an applicant for Mr. Backus's position under the Cleveland administration, and is supposed to be at the bottom of the charges. The depart ment has sent Inspector Gardner to in vestigate, and doubtless he has found the situation of things commendable to Backus. Miles Moon, a young farmer living near Valley, while returning home at a late hour Wednesday night, was held up by three men who demanded his money. Moon had $60 in bills and about $4 in silver in his right-hand trousers pocket. While pulling the money out of his pocket, he let the bills fall and handed the highwaymen the $4 in silver, and they ordered him to move on, which he proceeded to do, while they took the op posite direction in a hurry. Moon came back Bhcrtly after, lit a match and picked up his bills, very thankful that he had the bulk of his money still in "bank." Charles Nelson of the same neighborhood was also held up, but had no money and was only frightened half to death. George Todd of the same locality was saved by his horse getting, frightened at the appearance of the highwaymen and starting on the run out of reach. These night prowlers are getting to be a little too numerous and industrious for the decent part of the community, and these will be compelled in sheer self-defence to adopt vigorous measures on the principle that he who does not make his living by honest means must be watched very closely until it is known how he does get his bread. The sheriff of Merrick county came down the other day to get a man ap prehended here, and wanted for theft at that place, Mr. Dash, a marble dealer, having been robbed of watch and chain, besides jewelry, such as breastpins, rings, etc, the thief making entrance into his dwelling by cutting a window screen. Before the officer arrested him here, some boys noticed that he threw something into the weeds near W. T. Bickly's office, and so when Policeman Dranecame to search him he was so very willing to have his clothes explored that the fact raised the suspicion of guilt, but the missing watch and chain, the property of greatest value, was not forthcoming. After he was let go, officer Coleman happened to see him go quickly towards the weeds and pick up some thing, and so both officers gave chose and caught him. He begged them to take the stolen property and let him go, but our officials are not built that way, and the fellow will doubtless go "over the road" and into the state penitentiary. Coal is one of the big items of ex pense during the winter in this part of the world, and those who have much of it to provide aro already figuring on prices. The Omaha Bee predicts that there will be no marked ehange in the rates on soft coal this year, the prices ranging from $2.50 for the cheap Iowa stuff to 37 for the best Wyoming and Ohio coals. Local dealers protest that they have nothing whatever to do with the fixing of prices and lay all the blame for the big figures for hard coal at the door of the coal combine that controls the output of the big fields in Pennsyl vania and the roads that haul the output to the markets. It is thought the com bine cleared $25,000,000 last year over and above the ordinary profits on an output of 45,000,000 tons of coal. An thracite promises to open here at $10.50 with a jump up by October 1. There ought to be found and enforced some method of preventing gambling in the necessaries of life. We have been watching with no little interest the results of the .use of what is known as the Amick chemical cure for consumption or any chronic lung trouble. Dr. Amick has quit his ordinary practice to give his exclusive attention to this remedy for one class of disease, and, so far as a layman can see, the remedy is not only being extensively used but it is also effecting wonderful results. Knowing that Dr. L. C. Voss of this city had made permanent ar rangements with the company for the use of their remedy, we spoke to him Saturday as to the results of his use of the new remedy, and he tells us that it reduces the temperature of the patient, stops the night sweats, stops the expec toration, relieves the patient in every way, so that the appetite is improved, sleep is refreshing, and the entire system responds promptly to the treatment, and all this, usually within a week or ten days. The travels of J. I. Wolford, R. W. Bame, W. Bame, J. Goold, C. Buckmas ter and P. Gadsden from Schuyler, Neb., to Olds, Alberta, B. C, have been hand ed us with a request to publish. They took 4 wagons, 64 horses and 300 sheep. They started May 25, and went through Colfax, Stanton, Madison, Pierce, Ante lope and Knox counties, in this state; through Dakota, arriving, July 7, at Killarney, at which place they took the train for their destination. Under date of July 31, Wolford says they are all well, and that he had broken some prairie which looks nice and rich. This is all the lemark he makes about the country, to which a host of our Colfax county people have migrated. Chief of Police Coleman received the following telegram from Humphrey Sunday: Humphrey, Neb., August 33, 1893. To Police: Arrest Brother Taribias; five feet four, heavy set, no beard, looks excited ticket for Columbus noon train. Answer. Rev. Rudolph Hobstman. The Sioux City train came in at noon bringing the man, and it seems that Father PacificuB of this city had been informed of the circumstances, and met Taribias, who had just purchased a ticket for New York city, and secured from him the money he had appropriated, belonging to the Catholic church at Humphrey, which is to build their new church with. Joe Skillen and Frank Butcher were arrested and brought before Judge Hudson Monday, charged with damag ing property. The boys plead guilty to throwing bricks through windows and window-shutters, etc., and Skillen was fined $10 and costs, which amounted to $120. Butcher having been found guilty and being under fourteen years of age the justice made an order to tho county judge, to have him sent to the reform school. Mrs. Skillen is now trying to have the city council pass an ordinance not to allow boys on the street after eight o'clock. To any of our readers who wish a Chicago paper, we make the following offer: The Columbus Journal, the Semi-weekly Lincoln Journal (published Tuesdays and Fridays of each week), and the Inter Ocean, all one year, when paid in advance, for $2.70.

David Anderson of South Omaha, formerly a Columbus citizen, has given to the World-Herald his views on the situation as follows: "The ordinary American citizen and thousands of busi ness men believe there should be one hundred cents worth of silver in a silver dollar; that the government should pay no more for the bullion than it is worth on the market for other purposes; that that the government should purchase only American product and that silver should be made a legal tender wherever the American government controls to the amount of, say $1,000. What serious objections are thero to these various propositions? The Globe-Democrat in forms us that it is an utter impossibility to place a hundred cents in a silver dol lar. Please tell us why and oblige." Liat of Jarors For the term of district court, begin ning September 25: Chris. S. Stiner, John K Chnstenson, Wm. TJ E. T. Jai Johi Wm. An Fred.

C, gave a lecture Wednesday evoning before tho teachers and others. Ho is a special teacher of pen art-work in public schools and is an expert in his line. He takes nature as his principal teacher and holds to the idea that tho more yon teach and understand naturo tho moro the student is released from the baser and immoral thoughts. Ho draws rap idly, making comical caricatures with but a few lines, and a few strokes with the chalk will entirely change tho ex pression. He has rapidly attained the last few years a national reputation as the rapid crayon artist. His "talks" to tho teachers horo were both instructive and entertaining, and his lino of work of encouraging teachers to learn to draw, thus placing their thoughts in pictures, is surely a thought worth cul tivating. Prof. Beatty or Cotner University will lecture some evening this week. State Superintendent Goudy is also expected. The teachers will indulgo in a social Wednesday evening and will bo treated to ice cream. Will He Be Consul? For some timo Mayor D. Schupbach has been talked of for tho position of consul to Basle, Switzerland, and now it would seem that his prospect of ap pointment is at least fair. Among the democracy anywhere it is possible that no litter representative could be named. A native of Switzer land, he has during his residence hero kept informed in the affairs of tho "mountain republic," so that he knows the needs of his former countrymen and likewise the resources of this country, and the best ways and means for fur thering tho mutual interests of the two great republics, foremost among nations for the maintenance of liberty without license, and lawful authority regulated by reason. Unfortunately to bo sure (according to our way of thinking,), domocracy is now in the saddle, but while it is so, let us congratulate such of our fellow citizens as may be placed in positions where they can honor themselves, their party and this community, by a faithful discharge of the trusts confided to them. The Journal hopes Mayor Schupbach may receivo tho appointment. Letter List.
