A new time card went into effect on
the Union Pacific Sunday. There is
very little change. No. 4, the Denver

The time is shortened nearly an hoar oa

also changed a trifle.
We always had a notion that the

factured a better and, cheaper rubber

Nebraska farmers can add another leaf

companied by a large number of sorrow

Dr. Elmer A. Sheets of Denver was

A Dago with a hand organ and a
monkey attracted some attention around
town Saturday evening. The little
monkey was very well trained and
caused much merriment by his queer
antics. There were probably some in
the crowd who did not know that what
tricks the little animal had learned had
caused him many a cruel beating and
much ill treatment. It was plain, to be
seen that be dreaded his master very
much. The Dago, as is usually the
case, was an able bodied man and should
have been engaged in better business.
The wheat to fill contracts is not in
sight, is said to be the reason why wheat
went up 20 cents in one week lately at
Minneapolis. The mills there are grind
ing over a million bushels a week. Min
neapolis and Duluth together have only
13,000,000 of all grades in public houses
as against 24,000,000 last year. There
are not a few there who predict $1.50 for
May and July wheat in Minneapolis.
This state of affairs is gratifying to Ne
braska farmers who were fore-headed
enough to understand the situation and
who have fine prospects of winter and
spring wheat ahead, with occasional
showers to strengthen the belief that
wheat will be a richly paying crop this
year. '
The fact of long years of service with
the reorganization Union Pacific, it
seems is not allowed to interfere with
plans of operation. Michael Savage,
who for the; past twenty years or more
has been the faithful watchman at the
large Loup river bridge west of town,
was dismissed from the service one day
last week. The company have decided
to dispense with the services of a watch
man there in the future. It may not be
generally known, bnt it is a fact that
this is the largest bridge between Omaha
and Ogden. It is as near fire proof as a
bridge can be made, but the wooden
bridge a short distance this side cer
tainly needs protection and will be in
spected daily by the section men. Mr.
Savage has moved into town and will
occupy his property on Olive street.
Perhaps the company may tender Mr.
Savage a better position.
While Wm. Bucher of this city was
at the World's Fair at Chicago in 1893,
he purchased several hundred aluminum
souvenirs, being about the size and shape
of a silver dollar, having on one side
vievs of the prominent buildings and on
the other his address and a German in
scription. These he gave out to his
customers when he returned home, a few
at a time, until they were nearly all
gone. They were scattered all oyer, and
not a few times was ho surprised by
having entire strangers come' into his
place and ask if he was the man, throw
ing down the piece, having gotten it
somewhere. But a short time ago he
received a letter from a William Bucher
at Atchison, Kans., stating that he had
been handed one of them; also explain
ing who he was, etc. Some correspon
dence followed' and they have now found
out that they are related, having both
originally come from the same part of
the Fatherland.- Neither one ever knew
or heard of the other before. Our Wil
liam tells us that his great grandfather
and the Atchison man's grandfather
were own brothers. If any of our read
ers are good at running down relation
we wish they would tell us how these
two William Bucher's stand.
County Superintendent Leavy has
issued circulars setting forth the plan
of the Twenty-first session of the Platte
county teachers' 'institute, which is to
be held in the High school building this
city, June 24 to July 1, inclusive. We
are glad that we can- give a word of ap
preciation for the plan of this institute
as.. compared with that which is too
common with county superintendents
generally. In the first place, we believe
that the legislators who projected the
idea of the teachers' institate never in
tended that it should take the place of
the ordinary school, whether district or
normal, bat should be, what its name
implies, a consideration of the necessary,
fixed principles coacerning receiving and
imparting instruction. Mr. Leavy, ia
setting forth the plan of the institute,
says that teaching prindplss, methods
aad order of school instruction, will oc
cupy the largest portion of the time of
the institute. In another respect, his
plan is to becommended he atilizes

'The marriage of Mr. Elijah H. An

Elliott of this city, occurred on Thurs
day, April 28, at.2 JO in the First Pres
byterian church. The church waa dark
ened aad the space around the pulpit
and organ was richly decorated with
palms, ferns, smilax aad other beautiful
floral adornment from the greenhouse
of Mr C. C. Gray. The church was
packed to its utmost capacity with
friends aad relatives of the bride, anx
iously awaiting; the appointed time to
arrive. The day was warm and pleasant
aad. the threatened wind storm in the
morning subsided into a perfect calm
and balmy day. Just as the clock on
the wall indicated the appointed time,
the contracting parties arrived and en
tered the eharch aad immediately the
electric lights were flashed on aad Mrs.
C. J. Garlow, presiding at the organ,
began the prelude to the bridal chorus,
while they marched up the aisle led by
the ushers, Messrs. Garlow and McAllis
ter, followed by the ring; bearer, Master
Hudson Cbestnutwood, who was follow
ed by the flower girls, Geraldine Gray
and Clara Covert, who were also followed
by the contracting parties; after taking
their respective places in front of the
pulpit, where Rev. R E. Lee'Hayes who
was there awaiting their presence and
after the bridal chorus from Der Frie
schntz by Weber, which wss appropri
ately rendered by Meedames Geer, Mc
Allister, Garlow and Miss Morgan, the
ceremony was then performed with
graat impressi veaees and solemnity, the
organ vat the same time discoursing
softly!, and sweetly, Mendelssohn's wed
ding march, except while prayer was
being offered. At the close of the cere
mony the bride and groom marched
down the aisle as the wedding march
welled up in, clearer and louder tones
from the organ.
The bride was attired in whito satin
duchess with a train and elaborately
trimmed in pearlB and duchess lace and
in her right hand she carried a boqiiet
of roses.
The groom was dressed in a unique
suit of conventional black and he ap
peared very composed throughout the
entire ceremony.
The reception was held in the parlors
of the Clother hotel from 3 to 5 p. m.,
where an elegant lunch was served and
where they received with great cordiali
ty all the friends invited. Many nice
and costly presents were received.
At 7:15 p. m. as the fast mail train
pulled in from the east, a large crowd
of friends and relatives gathered at the
depot to see them off and bid them good
bye. Much merriment was indulged in
while the train was halting. The rice in
great quantities was thrown promiscu
ously in all directions, not only upon
the bride and groom, but upon every
person who came in reach of those who
had prepared themselves for the occa
sion. The bride has many friends in Colnm
bus who join in wishing her happiness
and prosperity in her new home in Lead
viUe, Colo.

Most of the boys are of the opinion
.that we will be here between five and
ten days cannot tell anything yet.
Will write again in a few days. We
send our regards and love to all.
Onr mess consists of John H., Charlie
and Isaac Brock, Ernest Scott and one
stranger.
Nearly all the boys say they would
rather go through the hardest battle
Spain could put up than go through
another farewell. There were very few
dry eyes on the train after we left Co
lumbus till we got here, but they were
honest tears, and show that the boys'
hearts are in the right place.
Have just got through tossing the
news boy. Yours truly,
John Brock,
Co. K, 1st Regt. N. N. G., Lincoln, Neb.
The above letter wss; written to the
young man's father, the veteran soldier,
Policeman Brock of this city, with no
thought of publication, bnt it is just
such a letter as interests all the folks
the boys have left behind them.
R. B. Kummer writes to his wife, un
der date of April 30, and sends his re
gards through The Journal. Orders
have been received that no one could
leave the grounds except company offi
cers, and they only on the consent of
the commanding officers. Expect to go
to Omaha at anytime. Ladies of Lin-cobt-treated
- the soldiers this evening.
Frank Thomas was made corporal to
day. Our camp grounds are dusty, as
would naturally be expected with 30,000
people out to see us. Captain Kilian
takes good care of us and looks to our
comfort. He makes the best appearance
and is the most decisive commander on
the grounds.
Capt. Kilian came up from Camp
Saunders Sunday night to pick up four
teen men to fill out CovK's quota. He
had no trouble to find the required num
ber, as he took the afternoon train for
Lincoln Monday. Below are the names of
the new men who went, beside Jacob
Tschudy and George Brodf uehrer, who
went as old members of Co. K:

Of the fourteen, six were American

one Pole, a mixtare which the Spanish
will fled hard to beat if they should ever

The blockade will prevent help from

If it is the intention of our govern
