Compton writes fromHigh Point, Georgia, under date of May 13: "I notice that the Stanton Democrat is trying to help the colony out by refer ring to Sherman losing so many men on his march to ihe sea, owing to the un healthful climate. That is all bosh. I happened to be on that march myself. I never saw a body of men enjoy better health in my life than my regiment I traveled nearly over the whole state. I had no kick coming to me as to health, but I didn't like the pills we had to take at times." By the way, I send you a clipping from The New England Grocer, by which you will see the estimated peach crop of Georgia for the coming season is 2,500 cars. At Tifton, the Tift Bros, located years ago. They have been instrumen tal in opening a railroad through their place, three years ago they set out forty acres to grapes, and 10,000 peach trees and this year their estimated crop is fifty cars of peaches and twenty cars of grapes. "Denny" Roberts has a suit of new clothes, but there is nothing strange about that; they are nearly white, and while he looks somewhat like an honest miller, still there is nothing so very strange about that But it is a little curious that so brave a man, so cool headed an officer of the law, and an ex ecutive officer at that, should be afraid to go to a neighboring town, wearing only his new pants, and carrying the remainder of his wardrobe in a news paper. They do say that "Denny" wore his old clothes for fear that people, whom he had befriended in a similar manner, would tear the new ones off him. However, "The beat laid schemes of mice and men Gang aft aglee," and so it was with "Denny." Some one, more inquisitive than the general run, punched a hole in the bundle, and "the cat was let out of the bag," bo to speak. It is a moderate estimate that the springing of "Denny's" new suit in Platte Center cost him at least 55.

David City Press: Through the ef forts of Sheriff Derby, a good home with Guy C. Barnum of Platte county, near Colnmbus, has been secured for Leroy. adopted. son of James Marchbank of this city.

Special attention was given Miss Floy Stowe as a winner of a gold medal in the contest at Grand Island, on her return home. Bell wood Gazette: Mr. and Mrs. H. R. Smith went over to Columbus on Wed nesday on a trading toot. Frank Beard also took in the sights around Columbus on Wednesday ... J. Sherwood, our ar tesian well borer, is now down a depth of 260 feet. He has been boring through a sort of slate rock all week and aver ages about 25 feet each day. Prospects for a flowing well commence to look brighter and some of these days we ex pect to see the water shoot up into the air 50 or 100 feet. Schuyler Quill: Two quite important suits have been commenced this week and the papers filed with the clerk of the district court. Phelps & Subin being at torneys. In one case the heirs of J. H. Grotelushen, the man who froze to death one night last winter when coming home drunk from Leigh, are suing saloon keepers John Gnelk and Beck & Pieper and their bondsmen for $5,000 damages. In the second case Henry D. Lammert. as father of Kitty Lammert, a little girl is suing the B. & M. railroad company for $25,000 damages owing to an acci dent wherein the little one was made a cripple for life. It seems that when a little child she was in her mother's arms in a passenger car of a mixed train on the B. & M. road at Marshland, in the northwestern portion of the state. A freight car was shoved by the engine back against the passenger car with such force as to throw the child out of the mother's arms and against the window sill, causing curvature of the spine. The little girl is a helpless cripple. Both cases promise to be important ones. Greeley Leader: We took in the sights at Ericson last Tuesday for a few min utes. There is a big force working on the dam of the Cedar, which has given the ditch people quite bit of trouble, j It has washed to some extent, when the wind has blown, and they are now putting in piling and doing some rip rapping with stone. The lake made by damming the river is about two miles long and a mile wide, and is by no means an insignificant body of water, requiring "uuk u-m cu By xu uum uuunu. jir.x,nuaouiaFumS m iiooui, tea or ; twelve acres of potatoes. He has put in ' about four acres of onions, quite a lot of celery, cabbages, tomatoes, beets and other vegetables, in fact a garden patch that is worth considering. 3Ir. E. is also making quite an industry of raising fish. He has a pond of some acres which he has stocked with black bass, German carp and suckers, the two latter varie ties being used mostly as food for the first, the bass being the real stock of the pond. He cut a channel through a bend in the river damming each inlet to the old bed of the stream and has a fine place for fish which is fed by springs and the finny fellows are already quite abundant. .V Homeseekers' Excursion.

Earl Drinnin, nephew of J. EL of this place, has been assisting Wm. Moore north of town ia agitating the soil lately. We know of but one piece of winter wheat in this immediate vicinity that has not been plowed up and planted to other crops. No improvements noticeable in this vicinity except Joe Dishner has built a new house and outbuildings on a part of j sec. 36, 18n and 1 east, but then Joe is i excused under the circumstances. We saw P. S. Griffin hoofing it across lots one day recently and in conversa tion with him we learned that his driving pony laid down a few days ago and died, which accounted for his being on foot. -Starting with Oct. 15th, 1394, Thz COLC1IBC3 JOUBXAL subscription rates are 31.50 a year, if paid in advance, otherwise -52.00 a year.
