We are informed that a very interesting program haB been prepared. --Miss Anna E. Becker went Monday to begin her school in the Adamy dis trict. This is her first experience as a teacher, but she will doubtless make a success, as she has been an earnest and thoughtful student. H. II. Buckley, formerly a banker at Platte Center, was in the city last week and ordered his household goods and those of Mr. Dorr, his partner, shipped to Seattle, Washington, which they will make their future home.

G. S. Turrill, several years ago local editor of the Telegram, has purchased an interest in the Jefferson, Iowa, Souvenir, and becomes its editor. He is made of such stuff as good editors are, and Tin: Journal wishes him the suc cess he deserves. -Thursday night the Ancient Order of Hibernians of this city gave a ball and banquet which were attended and highly enjoyed by about sixty couples.

Mrs.Wilhelmina Weisshand, (mother of August Weisshand of Bismark town ship,) and a resident of this county for a number of years in the 70's, died at Peteluma, California, Dec 19th, in the sixtieth year of her age.

We failed to mention in our last issue the family gathering of the Hudson family, Christmas day. There were forty persons gathered together at the resi dence of G. W. Phillips, all descendants or related through marriage, to Mr. and Mrs. HI J. Hudson, and nearly all are living in the county. Of course, they had a splendid time. Don't forget the entertainment on the 4th, at the opera house. All old soldiers and their families should see it to picture to them the old times during the war. Patriotic people all should go, to renew and deepen their fidelity to country. We hope there are no other kind of people in the community at the present time. W. F. Beckett, late band-master of the Government Indian school at Genoa, has composed and had printed "The Indian Cadet March," a fine piece of music, a copy of which has been received at this office. Mr. Beckett is a composer of considerable ability, and this last pro duction will bring him added laurels. The trio in this march is worthy of special commendation aa the thought of a master. Saturday evening last while Patrick Macken was standing behind the counter of his saloon in Platte Center, he was struck in the ear by a bottle filled with pop, thrown by Ed. Morrissey, and, as we learn, without any provocation at all, and without warning to Mr. Macken. He also kicked him after he was down. A number of men present saw the cowardly assault. Mr. Macken was unconscious for an hour. Morrissey is in jail and will be prosecuted. John Becher has had five of the large Cottonwood trees bordering his sidewalk on the west cut down, making quite a bit of fuel for him. One of the trees fell towards the house and doubt less would have crushed in the roof of the kitchen, had it not caught, in its fall, the limb of another tree. As it was, the roof of the kitchen was but slightly damaged. Too much shade on a dwell ing house is not good, neither is it well to run the risk of having the wind blow big trees down over your head. Don't forget the entertainment to morrow (Thursday) evening at the opera house for the benefit of the Woman's Relief Corps, a patriotic organization for the relief of human suffering, a society that has done great good in this com munity, and whose usefulness could be wonderfully extended by lending it a helping hand. If you could do your part towards helping to put into their treasury 8100 or more, yon would see it all used for the benefit of those of this community who are in need of help dur ing these trying times. Harry E. Burgess, of tha Pawnee Medicine Co., is visiting relatives at Wheatland for a few days The Jour nal of Columbus, Nebraska, in noting the manager's connection with the Four Corners, aays: "Our old friend Watts. W. Burgess is doing his work in good form. His acquaintances here will always be glad to know of his success." Thanks, Bro. Turner. Your little "send off" is appreciated and takes the manager back to the glorious days of dreary bliz zardoin when the hospitality and warmth of TnE Journal office materially con doned the outward pressure of otherwise blissful Nebraska. Wheatland, (Cal.) Four Corners. - Several years ago Rev. William Pit tenger wrote a book called "Daring and Suffering," giving a very graphic descrip tion of the raid made by 22 Union sol diers of the 2d, 21st and 23d Ohio regi ments, acting under the orders of Gen. O. M. Mitchel, in which a train of cars was captured in Georgia, in 1862, from the enemy's camp, surrounded by 10,000 armed rebel soldiers. W. J. Knight, the engineer of the expedition, the first to board the train and the last to leave it, will lie here Jan. 4th to portray, in thrill ing language, aud many life-size oil paintings, the capture of the train, the escajie, cutting the telegraph wires, tear ing up track and burning bridges, the pursuit by rebels, the hanging of seven, plot to capture the jailer, capture of the guards, the pursuit by blood-hounds, etc., the whole forming one of the most daring adventures in the annals of war. Geo. T. Angell, president of the American Humane Education Society, 19 Milk street, Boston, is the address of a man who has become famous throughout Christendom for the good he has done, which, after all, is the only fame worth having. The society, under the direc tion of Mr. Angell, inspired by his enthusiasm and swayed largely, doubt less, by his good judgment, have done an immense amount of work, greater in scope and more lasting in influence than many so-called religious associations. Of the book "Black Beauty" read doubt lessly by scores of Journal readers, the society has sent out about one million and a half copies. They have recently issued two new prize stories, "Holly hurst," and "The Strike at Shane's," which they believe will have as exten sive a circulation as "Black Beauty," which is known as "The Uncle Tom's Cabin of the Horse." Ten cents a copy buys either of these books. John L. Sturgeon had quite a bit of experience with irrigation in Montana, and thinks the location of the lands in mediate vicinity of this city very situated for being readily sup- h water in abundance, making rental in consequence at least what it now is. One-sixteenth of a rod is all the fall that is neces sary, and the sand in our soil is very easy to manage, with such a ditch, there being no "wash." The ditches in Montana are mainly five feet across on top, three feet at bottom, and three feet deep. He tells us that about a mile north of Ulysses, this state, the renter on George Smith's farm (who, by the way, pays a rental of five dollars an acre), has a steam engine with which he pumps water from the Blue river into a reservoir from which he draws for irrigating the farm. He is engaged in mixed farming, raises a con siderable quantity of vegetables, and makes enough out of his crop of cucum bers, (which he raises for the seed.) to pay all expenses of bis farm.

A. M. and Dan. Jennings came down from St. Edward last week, and tarried several days in the city. W. E. Walton of Baltimore, Md., is shaking hands with his numerous friends in Genoa this week. Banner. Miss Kittie Way returned yesterday to Peru, after a vacation of two weeks from her studies at the State Normal. Miss Joe Flesher of Chicago was in the city Thursday on her way to Genoa for a visit, the guest of Miss Enor Clother. L. L. Adams and son, the latter of Rising, and with whom his father has been visiting, were in the city Monday. Superintendent Scott, Miss Laura Ward and H. J. Spencer, were in attend ance on the State Teachers' Association at Lincoln last week. It would seem, from I. Gluck's speech before the council, and his change of front as to covering his building with iron, that he has come to the conclusion to lock horns with the council on the enforcement of the fire-limit ordinance. He probably is of the opinion, after in vestigation, either that the method of others (namely to cover their wooden buildiugs with iron), is not a compliance with the ordinance, or that the ordi nance is vulnerable in some particular. Mr. Gluck is very positive in his asser tion that the councilman of the First ward (meaning Spoerry), is "after him." So far as anything the rest of us can see, it does not appear that either he or the council as a body desire anything more of Mr. Gluck than of any other citizen, similarly situated, and of course that is the way to measure their action. The ordinances should have a reasonable construction, and be enforced alike upon all. The Journal believes that when the ordinance says that houses erected in the limits must be constructed of brick, stone, iron or other incombusti ble material, it does not mean brick, stone or iron veneering. A house built of brick, does not, surely, mean, one whose walfe are frame, with an outside coating of brick. If the ordinance is faulty, give us a new one. Clinton C. Gray and family had a narrow escape from death by suffocation last Saturday night. Mr. Gray retired after leaving the kitchen range, in which hard coal is burned, as he had been doing for several months, during which time no gas had lieen noticed to escape. He was called by one of the children at about 5 o'clock Sunday morning to shut the door into the kitchen, the lad never liking to have it open; this he did and went to bed again. At 6 he woke up with a headache, and was dimly con scious of something wrong, either that they had all been chloroformed or that escaping gas from the stove had over come them. The house was opened and the gas soon escaped, but it was only after the call of a physician, and a rest until 2 o'clock in the afternoon, that they were freed from the influence. A window was open from the top near Mr. Gray's bed, and it is supposed that the gas was condensed in the parents' room, making it worse for them than for the children. Mr. Gray's father thonght that if the children had not wakened, their parents would have been suffoca ted to death. The Chautauqua circle held their annual gathering Monday night at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Sheldon, a large crowd of invited guests partici pating with them in an evening of enjoy ment.

Greisen Bros., 1 Nov. 10, '93. ti'hoo! Boar.l. The board met in regular session Mon day evening at the office of. Secretary Taylor, all members being present ex cept Henry and Schupbach, detained at home by sickness. Vice-president Speice occupied the chair. The minutes of the meeting of Dec. 4, were read and approved. The report of sup't showed the whole number of scholars enrolled fifll; whole number belonging for the month (520; average daily attendance 593.1; average per cent of attendance 9.1.5; teachers tardy 5, -minutes thus lost 20; pupils tardy 8T, minutes lost 033; visits by sup't 72, by members of board 10, others, 00; cases of corporal punishment, one in Miss Taylor's room; Mr. Leavie's room gained the half holiday for highest per cent of attendance and fewest minutes lost by tardiness; S72.75 had been col lected for tuition, and he recommended that 8100 be placed to the credit of the library fund, as there are some works of reference much needed by pupils of the high school. On motion of Taylor seconded by Kra mer, the report was received and the recommendation adopted. The following accounts having been audited, were allowed, and warrants or dered drawn on the proper funds: A. Berger $7.05; Houghton, Mifflin A Co. 838.25; J. B. Delsman 82.40; J. H. Galley 45c; Lincoln School Supply Co. 827.20. It seems that the board had a contract with one Mr. East on blackboards, but that, as he had not complied with his contract, they had witheld the balance until he could do so. In the meantime he had given an order to the B. &. M. agent, on the board, to pay a freight bill of 88.60, which the board were about to grant and credit on account, when it occurred to them to look over the order carefully, and they found that it read: "On acceptance of balance due as per statement," etc., and the order was not honored. Speice of the committee to ascertain the amount of funds on hand available for the redemption of outstanding bonds reported that on Dec. 1, 93, there was 83,089.83; subtracting interest payment to be made, 8301.35, would leave 82, 728.48. The committee had not yet astertained whether the parties holding bonds would accept payment before due, but took it for granted that they would. The new school house problem was talked of informally, the members of the committee present stating that they hoped to make their report in writing at the next meeting, with recommendations. The drift of the talk was towards selling the Third ward property (except the frame building, and move that to the Second ward school); ask the voting of bonds for two school houses, say 80,000 for the west end of the city, and 89,000 for the one in the neighborhood of L. Gerrard's residence. It was thought that 81,000 could be realized from the sale of the Third ward building, and 81.500 for the grounds. Adjourned, to meet at the call of the president, to hear the report of the com mittee on buildings and grounds, and to take action thereon if thought best.

St. Clair, Christmas evening, by Rev. II. A.Barton, Mr. R. G. Mossman and Miss Belle St. Clair. This auspicious event has been long looked for and expected by the many friends of the contracting parties, aud now that the joyful event has been con summated, hearty congratulations and well wishes are expressed by all their acquaintances. The groom is known all over Madison county, as our worthy, efficient and capable county superiu tendent, a gentleman and a scholar of high standing, and that he is well liked by a majority of the voters was mani fested at the recent election by his choice for a second term as superintend ent of schools. The bride wo have known for several years, as an accomplished lady, of rare qualities of mind aud heart, and a charming, noble woman, whom it is a pleasure to know as your friend. She has been a teacher in our public schools for a number of years, and that she is beloved by all the little ones of the town is her highest endorsement of good ness. The Chronicle wishes Mr. and Mrs. Mossman a long and prosperous life of contentment and happiness. So says the Madison Chronicle. The many friends of the bride, in this community, where she lived several years, will unite with The Journal, in heartily seconding the sentiments of the Chronicle. District 44 anil Vicinity. "Write it 1894." Two weeks vacation in our school, and during this fine weather it does seem to be too much. Even on the hill, the days are getting longer, while we are groping round for an office calendar. John Dishner sold a large team of gray horses Saturday in your city, price 8275, which was not bis selling price. A magic-lantern exhibition given at the school house one evening recently drew a respectable crowd. We were not present, but learn of one who was, that it was quite a success fill failure. Wm. Engel and bride moved into their new residence last week, and are now in the full enjoyment of housekeeping, and being on a new farm they find many in conveniences which industry and time will overcome. Now is a good time for planning farm work for the coming spring. Wo know where we will plant corn, oats, barley, potatoes and beans, and if we wish to be independent and live on top, wo should select a strip of ground upon which to plant one-half acre of sorghum; another piece of two acres for buckwheat. The last two crops are almost indispensible if you wish to fare sumptuously. A small area of navy beans is a paying crop. In the years '92 and '93, we sold over 18 bushels of strictly hand-picked leans to one of your best grocery firms, for which we received S2.40a bushel.
