' As we go to press Tuesday after noons we can only mention that Rev. Brown was to speak at the opera house last evening on the Catholic church as a political power. Some Pennsylvania men who drove north of Shell creek at the mills the other day were very much surprised at the fine country they saw, the improve ments, and the crops. It costs 92 cents to mine a ton of coal in Pennsylvania, but the ton costs $10 in David City, or the price of a ton and a half of com. Where does the $9.08 go?-David City Press. Mrs. Glenn, a lady 39 years old, and living six miles south of Madison, says the Reporter, stepped into a hole in the door yard Monday, and fell down, break ing the thigh bone of her left leg. W. F. Setzler of Spring City, Penn sylvania, arrived Friday on a visit to his brother-in-law, Mr. Beerbower; from here he will go to California, where he expects to stay during the winter. One district court, two county fairs, and one democratic convention, added to the ordinary occurrences of life in Platte county are calculated to keep the people a little busier this week than usual. It is claimed that there is a tiger at large near Schuyler, supposed to have escaped from some traveling show. Mr. and Mrs. Egbert both claim to have seen it, heard it yell, and noticed its depre dations. Oehlrich Bros, have at their store some fine specimens of Hogue's yellow dent corn raised on their farm near Benton. It is said to be very produc tive and it certainly shows handsomely in the ear. The republican primaries for the ThirdVard will beheld Saturday, Sept. 30th, aV from 1 toV o'clocsV p. m. at Hnber'aXotel to eles seven enlegates to countA convention J. N. Meater, committeeman, The Journal's information is that the city is supplied with a brand new gambling place. We don't know who runs it or what they do or anything further than that we believe our infor mant is reliable. Secretary Adkins has been re-engaged by the Y. M. C. A. association of this city, which, we take it, is a well merited recognition of the ability, activ ity and all-around usefulness he has evinced in his position. Friday, October Cth, 1:30 at the Clother house, this city, will be held the people's independent senatorial conven tion for nominating a candidate for state senator to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of J. E. North. One of the latest Boston notions is a bicycle for each fireman, fitted out with a small chemical tank and fire ax as an extinguisher the tank is counted . lpdy, Mof thanV the bonde bASecre- equal to twelve pails of water. Whylfrom the old world. He thinks the not organize a bioycle brigade in this city? We learn that the usually peaceful burg, Monroe, was considerably shaken up Saturday night. The particulars are not at hand at this writing, except that several men were stabbed, but not se riously, and that the fracas was caused by liquor. The Norfolk Journal says that T. B. Kail is the inventor of an engine which has proved a success in every particular. It is claimed that he gets fully a third more power from the same amount of steam and fuel as is got from the en gines commonly in use. Cal. C. Valenitne, a former resident of this city but for the last seven years of Omaha, has resigned his position there as stenographer of the district court, and will remove to Chicago, where he has purchased an interest in a flourishing, shorthand business enterprise. Lnter Smith of the Shell creek mills Iswas in the city Monday. Nine men under direction of an expert of the well known firm of Seeley k Son of Fremont are at work putting in a complete outfit of new machinery, and will probably be through in about eight days. There is entirely too much careless ness with matches, pipes and cigars. Thursday Clyde Dimick of Boone coun ty lost four wheat stacks, the fire sup posed to have originated from the stub of a cigar thrown in the stubble by some one in the road home from town. A party of Fremont men who went to The Strip for land took a drive-well pump and fourteen feet of pipe, struck their claim, put down their well, and were busy supplying water to the thirsty boomers at 5 cents a canteen or 50 cents a barrel. The water is still holding out. Since Friday night the song of the street has been "The Bow'ry,"and it will doubtless last quite a while. If the lesson conveyed by the song could be made applicable to the attempted re productions of it, the suffering listener might well say Til never go there again." Mrs. J. F. Maile left at this office today a sample branch from a fig tree which she has growing in her yard. The branch has three figs and the tree thirty five. Nebraska figs are something of a curiosity, but there is nothing under the sun we cant produce when we under take it Fremont Tribune. John Sacrider, who is one of the jurors this term of court, received a tel egram Monday that his grandchild, the youngest child of F. Hoppock, had died and would be buried at Monroe today, Wednesday. The child was about a year old. Mr. .Hoppock and family have been on a visit with friends in Illinois. Those in search of a piece of valaa ble Columbus property should not .over? look the offer of John TannahilL as found in another column of The Jouxxatj. tf Seven tramps were oorraled in one herd recently by our policemen and it was a caution to see them pass under the critical examination of these two city officials. Nothing of any special note was developed by the investigation exeept that the visible means of support in the way of current funds were not so in substance. There has been some talk of D. F. Davis ss a candidate for county superin tendent of schools before the democratic convention tomorrow, but we understand that he has entertained no thought of it. Doubtless, his certainty of getting the postmastership would preclude any de sire for the other, even if he felt called in that direction. Early Monday morning, says the Humphrey Democrat, the beer house of Dave Hale was broken into by three gentlemen of leisure, who came' here from Omaha. Marshal Linaberry cap tured the intruders, but upon the ad vice of County Attorney Gondring, who, came up Monday evening, they were re-?1 leased and ordered to vamoose.

If the policy of sprinkling the fresh grades, and also all the streets when needed, in very dry and windy weather is not followed, we shall have to call upon the outlying country for dirt sufficient to keep up the required level. Some Platte county democrats de clare that their majority is big enough now, and would fain make us believe that it would surely be larger with a combine ticket against them. That would, of course, greatly depend upon the kind of men selected, but the democrats who are to be placed upon their party ticket to morrow will be delighted if their oppo nents do not combine. Henry Engel was away, south, two weeks returning Thursday. He says he never before saw the like of the rush for land in The Strip, He didn't even reg ister. Thousands of men had been lying around for months, and of course knew the best pieces of land, and there is some of it very good. The main troubles sprung up after staking, between the actual rushers and the "sooners." John Wurdemann was in town Fri day. He has about 35 acres sown to winter wheat a week ago that is up and looks green and nice, notwithstanding the very dry weather we have had. It was put in with a press drill and Mr. Wurdemann says that the drill puts the grain into the solid earth beneath the plowed land and that the moisture there was sufficent to insure the sprouting of the grain. The editor of the Madison Reporter, who has just returned from the World's fair, is not favorably impressed with the specimens of humanity there to be seen Plaisance is a great, big humbug and that a man is a sucker who will spend a nickle inside of it, excepting of course on the Ferris wheel; he says the state buildings are a falsehood and a snare and some one made a big pile of money out of them. The following are delegates elect to the democratic county convention here tomorrow: First ward, Messrs. C. A. Speice, Reimer, Stauffer, Delsman, Cox, Segelke, Johannes, Stenger, Schupbach, Frischolz and G. A. Schroeder. Second ward, Welch, Reinke, Echols, Meyer, Ryan, Leavy and Gluck. Third ward, Davis, Gleason, Gondring, H.C. New man, Schubert, and Thos. Flynn. Co lumbus township, Griffin, Johnson, Sul livan and John Flynn. The Mohammedan, as a part of hie religion, prays five times a day, but be fore he prays washes eyes, face, nostrils, mouth, ears, hands and feet, and a lec turer on their habits says there is a wonderful difference between a large crowd of them and a crowd of Ameri cans or Europeans as recognized by the sense of smell. When they have their feet extended toward you, it is never necessary to caution them against "working their toes." One of our citizens, who with some others of Madison county attended the camp-meeting at Clinton, Iowa, has re turned a confirmed spiritualist, and very strong in that faith, which, he declares, is not mere faith or belief, but actual, positive knowledge. He tells of very many things that to the average mortal are exceedingly marvellous and beyond belief at second hand. His present pur pose is to endeavor to engage the services here of some of the most noted mediums. We understand that the wits about town are talking about incorporating a loafing organization, an idlers' club, a lazy man's society or something of the sort, and it is proposed to elect 8. L. McCoy as president and Ed. Early as secretary and incidental treasurer. When approached on the subject Mc did not deny the fact that such an asso ciation was contemplated, but remarked that there certainly ought to be good salaries provided for the officials in any case. We reproduce elsewhere an article from the North Bend Republican, al ready placed before the Schuyler people by the Herald. We are not informed aa to the ability of Mr. Patterson to ap proximate the correct figures; those given are certainly enough to astonish us all and lead us to ask several very pertinent questions. However, the ques tions which we place at the head of the article are well worth the consideration of the gentlemen interested in our canal I power. Uftendi mmeapun see JKy, sttgi fcowssteerejlteifers ness, wagon, pmws, The Humphrey Democrat says that all the democracy of Platte have to do to win the day is to saw wood. In an other place of the same paper we notice that D. a Karanaugh and D. F. Davis came np from Columbus Wednesday' and went over to Lindsay Thursday. The wood is being aawed and split up ready for use, Fair Association have secured in balloon ascen- sion by a lad; pne of the at- tractions. The Schuyler Herald has a well considered article in advocacy of a public library more generously supplied with books than the one they have at present. There is a state law which provides a way whereby every self respecting community in the state can provide itself with a splendid library with all necessary equipments, and keep on each year increasing the number of books and otherwise adding to its use fulness. David City has a free public library organized on this plan, and we understand it gives good satisfaction. Mr. Lawrence, the engineer, is very enthusiastic over the situation of this city, with reference to a canal power. He and Mr. Gottechalk have been at work on the survey for several days, and the result will be known shortly. A level taken on the Sixth principal meridian, running north and south, east of Right mire's, shows that the bluff is 83 feet higher than the river bank. There is no doubt but our situation is still more fa vorable than even this would indicate, as there is a higher point a little east that can readily be reached. Dig the ditch. It seems that in the contest which William Lamb, section boss at Duncan, had with a Polander, he was knocked down, then recovered his footing and floored his assailant, but he was bruised considerably, had a section of his whis kers pulled out, and besides is no longer section boss, at least another man is on duty. We learn that it was no fault of Mr. Lamb's; that the Polander lost some stock which were valued at a certain sum, but because he received only half that sum he attributed the shortage to Mr. Lamb, and assaulted him on that theory. One of our "impecunious cusses," as he calls himself, says that he is rated at $300 in the commercial books, and he thinks he may be able to bank on that to run him through the coming winter he don't know just now how else he is to get through. In a good many years of married life, he has never run a store bill, but with one grocer and that for a short time only and a small amount, which 'makes his credit good, he sup poses, but he is not fiatist enough to believe that the solid comforts or even necessaries of life rest upon the mere "word of mouth." Word from The Strip is that Milt. Speice had selected a very good piece of land, but when he couldn't get thai, he sought no other. Mr. Roberts, his com panion, got a good claim. Bont. Speice made the race on horseback, and got a lot for which he has been offered $1,200 and which is worth $1,500. Milt, and Bont. are living in a tent on the lot and the part unoccupied by them rents for $130 a month. Mrs. J. C. Post, who lives at Kingfisher, Oklahoma, had been to see her brothers after the rush for land, and found a town, Enid, with seven to nine thousand people. The Albion Argus has some lengthy editorials on the proper methods of securing appointments under the Cleve land administration. It is laid down that, say, for instance, John Becher wanted the appointment of postmaster of Columbus he should get the endorse ment of the local democratic committee, called together in session as a commit tee, and their endorsement sent to the state committee, whose endorsement to the appointing power would be respect ed. In this way it was supposed that the wish of the people could be more accurately met and satisfied. Ed. Early says that more people came away from The Strip than stayed there. He saw only one man killed he was helping to run the shell game. There is some good land there, but much that is not good. You could buy water, but that was all the way you could get it, the pumps were all locked; people had to stand in line and take their turn to get beer, and many drank this liquid that never tasted it before. On Wednesday week, the hottest day he ever felt, about thirty men in the regis tration line fainted, and four were car ried away dead. He thinks there were many men killed that will never be heard about at all. John Phillips of Lincoln who is out on a hunting expedition, mainly for his health, and who has been adding to his flesh and strength at Cedar Rapids for a number of days, arrived in the city Sat urday, driving down by the way of St. Edward. He looks like a "horny handed son of toil," and has evidently enjoyed his outing; although we have not heard any marvels with tho gun or the hook and line, we doubt not, he has had the usual luck. He seems to have found what he was mainly in search of, diversion from business cares and over work and strength that leads him to consider whether an out-door life would not be desirable most of the time. Winter oats seems destined to be come a profitable cereal for Nebraska. It is nearly as hardy as winter wheat, should be sown in September, can be pastured late in the fall and during dry times in winter and not lessen the sub sequent crop of grain. It yields well and weighs thirty-five to forty pounds to the bushel. The amount of seed sown to the acre is one and a half to two bushels. Jaeggi k Schupbach have a specimen of it at their mill, and have directed samples to be mailed to such farmers as will take care to raise a small quantity of it on trial. It is from the department of agriculture at Washing ton, and has been successfully raised in Ohio and Virginia.

Father Pacificus delivered a lecture last Sunday evening at the Catholic church on "True Patriotism," or "Are the Catholics of tho United States True Patriots?" There was a large attend ance. The main points of the discourse were: that true patriotism did not con sist wholly in obedience to statutory law; the Chinese here were obedient to law, but are not to be regarded as patriots, as true patriotism consists in love of country. The Catholics of Ma ryland were the first to pronounce in favor of religious toleration, and the history of the country from that time down shows numerous incidents of Catholics fighting for the liberties of their country along with their fellow citizens of other faiths.
