wonders for us.

D. H. Cramer has started to erect
400 feet of cribbing for corn; the sheds
are to be placed near the Lindell hotel.
There is going to be a wonderful amoant
of corn stored for future use, and this is
well, for at prevailing prices not a pound
should be shipped out of the atate, or off
the farms except to pay old debts, inter
est on them, or for the .necessaries of life.
A close observer of Nebraska markets
once told us that in any term of five
years taken at random corn would bring
at some time at the very least thirty-five
cents a bushel.
Quite a prominent stock man of the
county remarked to us a few days ago
that at the present price of corn the gain
in hogs that followed cattle that are
being fatted would almost if not quite
pay for the corn consumed by both ani
mals. It is undoubtedly true that with
good hogs and enough of them to clean
up everything in the feed yard will go a
long ways toward paying the expense of
8-cent corn. Cattle fed four months will
only eat about $4 worth of corn and this
is just about the price of 130 pounds of
pork Wayne Republican.
Baker & Wells sent a
and
driver out last Thursday with a man who
is doubtless working in the interest of
eome railroad. He was very "mum" but
had maps of the eastern part of the state,
a compass, etc. They went from here to
Fulton, Colfax county, from there to
Clarkson, and then to Howslls and Wie
ner, at which .place the atranger hired
another livery team and went north, and
Baker k Wella' driver came home. The
query is: Are the B. k M. seeking an
outlet north from Columbus to Sioax
City?' This would certainly be a. good
atretch of country to cover.
The last Bellwood Gazette gives a
lengthy account of the manner ia which
a decree of divorce was recently granted
by Judge Bates, downright fake awear
ing on the part of the applicant being
charged by the Gazette. It leada Tsx
JouxNaXi to remark that too much cau
tion cannot be exercised by judges in
such cases. The relation of man and
wife to each other, to their offspring,
and to the community of which they are
a vital part, is too important to be
trifled with by any one concerned, and
most certainly a decree of divorce
ahould not be founded upon falsehood
and perjury.
The case of Mrs. George Barnum
came up last Saturday week, George
having secured a witness in the person
of one of Mrs. Barnum's former hus
bands, named George W. Smith of West
Jersey, Illinois. It seems that there ia
yet another named Hearn, living in Mis
souri. Mr. Smith says that the woman
now asking for divorce from Barnum,
and for alimony, was married to him
(Smith) and is not divorced. A copy of
the Galssburg Mail of March 3, gives
quite a aketch of the life of this woman.
Alimony had been allowed by the court,
but after hearing the testimony of Mr.
Smith, the alimony was suspended.

It eeame that there

aad that they fell iato a vary spirited, if
not a vary wtoUeetaal discussioa over
the merita of the different phases of the
Dietrich ease ia court last week, aad not
being able to agree as to who was in the
right and who was in the wrong of that
matter, they fell to blows, acting in this
respect sa foolishly as nations before
them have done in an endeavor to settle
a matter of dispute, which merely served
ash basis for quarreling.
Hot blood, when it has boiled to a cer
tain degree of heat, assms not to lose any
of its heat unless it hannens to come
into contact with something cooling,
either in the way of cold water, ice or
blood-letting, and in this esse it seemed
a case of the letter.
The fifteen occupants of the box car
got into trouble, and it seemed necessary
that there ahould be blood-letting, and
at it they went. One man was laid out
with a coupling-pin, so that he appeared
as if he had passed partly through a
sausage machine and had been pulled
back again. One of his ears was cut in
two, he waa hit over the eye and on the
side.of the face, and when he declared
from the depths of his misery "Oh! what
will my poor mother say to this?" it. is
supposed that the fellow who struck him
was so sorry that he rustled in the
neighborhood for hot water enough to
wash his wounds.
"What fools these mortals be!"
The battle raised quite an excitement
in that part of the city, and several men
displayed the heroic metal of which
they are made by the way in which they
took to quell it.

The United States as a nation is
now so large and populous and so well
recognized aa one of the great powers
that we are prone to think of the begin
nings of such a great people as neces
sarily lying away back in the dim and
misty past. But when we learn that
right here in Nebraska there are living
two men, and perhaps others, whose
own fathers were soldiers of the Amer
ican revolution, then the mists which
veiled the past break away and as we
gaze upon those distinguished sons we
can almost hear the fife' and drum of
the continentals and smell the smoke
of battle. Rev. Samuel Goodale, D. Dn
born December 20, 1814, at Egremoat,
Mans,, and now n resident of Columbus,
Neb, is one of these distinguished eons.
His father, Chester Goodale, enlisted
four times and carved as a musician
and n private in the Connecticut troops.
William Curry Huddleaon, born at Win
chester, O., March 3, 1834, and bow liv
ing at 503 Soath Thirteenth street, Lin
coln, Nelx, is also similarly distin
guished. His father, William Huddle
aon, served as a private soldier in the
Pmuasyrtania troops. William Goodale
is a clergyman of the Protestant Epis
copal church and though nearly 83 years
of age, still preaches occasionally. Mr.
Haddlesoa is bale and hearty. He was
a captain in the Twelfth Ohio cavalry
ia the war of the rebellion. Osaaha

Mrs. S.
This lady, vary well known to oar
Colambas raiders, has been delivering n
lecture before the pupils of the high
school at BapidCity, South Dakota, and
it is thus spoken of in the Journal of
that-city. It not only evidences the
lady's ability in that line, but is sugges
tive to conductors of school, even beyond
the lines of Dakota:
-"Every seat in the high school room
was taken yesterday upon the occasion
of the first lecture in the course to be
given before the pupils by Rapid City
apeaksrs. The lecturer yesterday was
Mrs. S. Geodale, who last year made a
foreign tour, and the lady took her jour
ney for "her sabjeet. Mrs. Goodale read
her lecture, but as she was well prepared
that in no wise detracted from the inter
est. Her style is easy and at times quite
eloquent, while now and then she quoted
a line or two of poetry where it seamed
the most appropriate.
Mrs. Goodale took her listeners with
her from the time of starting at Colum
bus, Nebraska, until all the places had
been visited and she arrived with her
friends in New York harbor on her re
turn. The descriptive trip was neces
sarily a hurried one and she could only
touch upon tne different points visited
in the most cursory manner, but she
brought out the interesting features in a
way that showed excellent judgment and
knowledge of what would interest and
please. Places in Germany, Italy, Switz
erland and England were described, with
now and then an anecdote to break the
monotony, and when she finally reached
New York harbor and closed by paying
homage to America the school broke out
in enthusiastic applause, and a vote of
thanks waa unanimously tendered her.
Superintendent Larrabee expressed
his gratification at the success of the
afternoon and announced that he expect
ed to have another lecture in two weeks."

Death ef Mrs. Leal Wetterer.
The circumstances of the death of
Mrs. Wetterer were very sad, says the
Central City Republican. She is a sister
of Mr. Settler aad the widow of Mr.
Louis Wetterer, who died last summer;
she leaves four young children, the
oldest nine years old and the youngest
three. Her trouble was la grippe, which
ran into pleurisy and pneumonia, and
for the last few days nervous prostration.
Her sJcknsBB lasted about two weeks.
She had good doctors and a trained
nurse and every eare that could be be
stowed. Her first thought was of her
children and the sense of their helpless
condition so weighed upon her mind aa
to make her recovery the more doubt
fuL She was a lady of very domestic
habits, devotedly attached to her
family, true to her friends, and respected
throughout the community for her ex
cellent character and social virtues.
Her mother was dead and she had
neither brothers or sisters, except Mr.
Peter Settler who is himself unmarried
and upon whom will devolve the care of.
