Silver Creek Times. . Sunday there was quite a rain -along Shell creek, seemingly almost a cloud burst near McPhillips' place. At Platte Center the game of base-ball was stop ped by the rain, when th'e score at fifth! inning, was 8 to 4 in .favor of Platte Cen ter against the Cpluabus Stars. .

They are at Chickamauga and are living well, feasting on roast beef and other modern dishes, which'were unknown to the old "Grand Army boys when they werein the sarvice: Leigh WHd. . . ."" Some days ago a set of harness was missing belonging to :Prs. Martyn, Evans and Geer. 'Recently A.. Berger found a gunny sack "containing harness in his barn, 'which, on' showing to Dr. Evans, proved to be the missing set.

Albion News. r-County Treasurer Elliott's horse was taken up the .next-morning after it left here by Charles Van Wie, living nine miles southwest of Silver Creek. It would seem that it-had been stoleq along with the rest, driven, down and turned loose, as in the time it must have been on the trot all the way. Mr. Elliott and John- B. Huber went up Monday of last week; got the pony and sold it at. Silver Creek. There is another case of. diphtheria in town, a child of the Peters family. The residence was quarantined Wednes-. day morning. Mr. Peters attended one of the children in the Banmgart family that was sick with diphtheria and be undoubtedly carried the contagion from there into his own family. If this dis ease is to be stamped out here it must be handled with extreme "rigor Hum phrey .Democrat, It takes newspapers to make a city quickly famous. Even up to" Madison the fame of the last encounter has reached, and the Chronicle suggests a thought: Now that active warfare in Cuba is at a standstill, the seat of battle seems to have been for the time trans ferred to Columbus where Editors Duffy and Swallow, of Humphrey, bombarded each other last Saturday with all kinds of jpet names and numerous body blows. Comrade Wilson purchased some trees of Tannahill the first of the sea son, among them an ash tree that has been doing finely, being watered con siderably during the dry weather. Lately, however, Mr. Wilson has noticed that the bottom under the tree has dropped out or some communication been made into the sand, as all the water used at the tree disappears with out moistening the soil around. Max Elias was at a dance Sunday at the Reinke farm on Shell creek. The dance waB held in a barn. Max, in com ing down from the mow supposed the stairs were as wide as the opening, but they were not, and his step to one side let him down to the 'floor, a distance, of about eight feet, dropping him on his 'right arm, fracturing one of the bones of the fore arm. It is allowed 'that, the arm may have saved his neck from being broken. The Northwestern .Catholic, pub-. fished at Sioux City, noting the appoint ment of Miss Abbie Keating of our city to be 'matron of the'home for the feeble minded at Beatrice, says:0 "Miss Keat ing .is- a Catholic girl; but neither,her youth nor her faith was .a bar to her promotion. And so it is, dear Catholic boys and girls, youmay encounter pre judices; but if you have the will and the skill, they will rise superior to every 0 disadvantage and secure recognitionin, free America." . In an adjoining town, while a la- dies'.card clnb was playing for a two dollar book as a prize, eays the Seward Blade, the sons of, these" same. ladies, small boys, were arrested 0in a hay mow playing-for a 50ct prize. They nad or ganized a club like mo'thers's. .The 'mothers cried and said: "Whab a terri bles place 'this town is to raise boys in anyhow." They might lurae known the difference between a 'parlor and a hay mow and between a two dollar and a fifty cent prize.

The I board meet this Tuesday evening to consider bids for the erection of the building.;. A-number of bidders are al ready in the city, and more are expected. It is thought there will be no-less than twenty bidders present. So far as we. can learn, the opinion seems prevalent that the bids will all exceed the amount implied in the bonds, and .that either funds must be drawn from another .source or- the- plans and specifications changed, ine -meeting may make some developments. The semi-annual statements of the county treasurers of Nebraska are being made all around the sky near and far. We note that our near neighbor, Madi: son county, has a balance on hand of $68,051.64, after disbursing 893,565.17. The collections were 8104,34.45. Among theBe there were excess of fees from County Clerk- Heilman $393.68; excess of fees from County Treasurer Wilde $766.37; interest from banks $866.12. Cheyenne county has a balance on hand of $7,980.06, having received 837,148.50. The district schools are entitled to $4,- 711.31 of the balance on hand, and the f treasurer occupies a page and a quarter of the Sidney Telegraph to set forth the particulars of account with, the 149 dis- f tricts. Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Wells went to Omaha this week to remain for several weeks. They have struck a very novel and convenient plan for seeing the ex position in its entirety. They have- ar ranged with Mr. and Mrs. Gates, of Omaha, to exchange residences for a Bbort time, each family using the other's house and household effects. Mr. and I Mrs. Gates doubtless consent to the ar rangement for the pleasure of enjoying what they would term a sojourn in the country, but we who think Schuyler quite a city will naturally resent any' reference to its being less -important than Omaha. However, we welcome Mr. and Mrs. Gates if their stay is but brief, and wish them a pleasant time while here. Schuyler Quill. We are informed that about a dozen pop committeemen met at the Argus office Saturday of last week and had what they called a good time. Sheriff Byrnes had provided a five gallon keg 6f lemonade and a box of American cigars. During the afternoon several of the bet ter class of democrats called in to sample their goods, exchange viewB and learn how to conduct meetings of this kind; and behold how good it was to see brethren dwell together in unity. They agreed to meet at Humphrey the 30th of this month, as they learned that the re publicans and democrats meet here on that date, and these aforesaid democrats claimed it would raise the moral aver age of the three crowds from 47 to 53 per cent to have the pops here on that day. Platte County Democrat. The editor of the Leigh' World took a drive into the Bobeet and Neboville country, Platte county) t he"ot he t day, vis iting IL G. Leuschen, postmaster at" Boheet, Rudolph "Wurdeman, the cream ery, etc. He says it was "like a glad sweet song to tear away from the cease less rounds of toil, and immure one's self for a few hours among the golden fields of grain and herds of lowing kine. There are many fine farms down that way and the good people treat you roy ally." All of which is true not only of that portion of Platte county, but measurably so of all parts. In fact there are many sections ot Nebraska, where the industry and' intelligence, of its land-owners have changed the so called wilderness' to the fields of gold en .'grain, .the .-beautiful orchards, the dense, forests, the- rich pastures,, the prosperous cities of our great -.commonwealth. There are several different kinds of - men. As to driving', for instance.

"suggestion" was enough to 'keep the horse where he placed him? We "happened to see that man 'get into his rig again, and' we noticed, this time that his horse had no linds at his eyes if they, were made a little above and projecting in front, like the front of a cap, it . wouldn't be so bad as the blinders. He didn't'say a word either, to his horse, but he. slapped the ends of the lines over his own shoulders as though he was chasing the flies off himself. The old horse knew what was meant, however, and speeded his gait I The driver was not satisfied, and. we looked to see the horse get a slap from the lines, but he didn't. The slap went the same direction as before, with added vigor; the horse knew was doubtless thankful that he had a kind master, and good-nataredly put his energy into his lege and waa aoon out of sight Our dumb friend appreciate kind traatatant. cr-asl Sitwtitu. -J -?

One of the memorable features of the Trans-Mississippi Exposition will be the exhibition of live stock September 19 to October 20. The $50,000 prize money offered will certainly bring out a host of contestants There are six classes: Cattle, horses, and mules, hogs, sheep, fat stock and poultry. The poultry exhibit will be first Sep tember 19-30. The fat. stock will be shown October13 20. J. B. Dinsmore, commissioner of live stock, states that the. correspondence received from intending -exhibitors is far larger in advance of the date for the closing of entries than- it was' at the Columbian Exposition at Chicago. If Mr.'Dmsmore's .expectations are fulfilled the exhibition of live. stock at Umaha will be 'one of. the finest ever given in, the country. ; . Daffy for Jsdge..

'WltaThtTa Camp Mekkttt,Sas Fkaxosco, ) July 17, 1898. Frank -Turner writes that he has npt seen or heard a -thing of Allen Slem- mona, who passed through Columbus with some fourteen recruits for San Francisco. The Nebraska recruits are gradually getting equipped. We have our canvas i.uniforms, and a sight they are. They are an ice cream suit, with the exception of the fit. The object doubtless in mak ing them is comfort, not style. They are on the overall style. CoL Burnett of the Fourth Pennsyl vania had us go through our drill exer cises the other day, and when he left, told Captain Kilian that the work of his boys was excellent, and that "no other company of recruits could come anywhere near his." He had inspected all the other companies of recruits be fore enrs. We are, all. working bard and so is' .our captain' in spite of the fact that he has had a sore throat -'and been under the weather since our arrival here. . Last evening we received our new rifles, and they are beauties. In a few days we will be ready ta take the field, -and if we don't help Uncle "Sam lick the Spaniards good' and plenty, it will not be our fault . There are. now only, two of our boys in the hospital, Corporal Van Over of Auburn and Private Oxier of Falls'City, the former afflicted with pneumonia, and th'e latter with typhoid fever, but both are improving rapidly. They "are not in the field hospital but are at the -big French hospital, jnst a block orso from where we are. cam.ped ' We have been .very fortunate so far, as our regiment has lost but two men. The Chronicle of yesterday announced "three more deaths at Camp- Merritt, five deaths the last thirty-six hours, and making atotal of over twenty'-since the establishment of. the encampment .on the wind-swept and .undained sand. lots. The cold ocean Breezes and' the. earlier wet weather, together with the damp 'fogs at. night, have combined in causing colds, which in-many cases have developed into affectipns of throats and lungs. More than half the deaths have been from .pneumonia." The San Francisco board of trade have taken up the matter, and have petitioned President McKinley, setting .forth the fact that at Camp Merritt there have been 6,000 men continuously encamped upon forty acres for eight Weeks; that the sand is thoroughly saturated with 'sewage and drainage; that a New York regiment just arrived would not accept quarters there, and thatif the president will authorize the expenditure, the board of trade will undertake in a very short time to make, ready the PfesidiO'Where there are 1,540 acres available for-good camping quart era. . The 106 recruits were asked to name their preference of company, and among them, seventy-five selected Co. K., but as Captain Kilian needs only twenty-live men to recruit his company, there will be fifty disappointed ones. Our boys are all healthy and strong and camp life seems to agree with them. All the Columbus boys are well and hearty, and' Bend' their regards to friends at home. We are going to sail for the Philippines sure but aa'to the, time no one in camp knows.. As we are recruko.for the First Neb. volunteer regiment we-will go to fill up the different companiesto which we have, been assigned, and in all prob ability will sail in the-near future. Frank. With Company K. A special telegram N. Y. World cable gram via Hong Kong July 21, from Manila July 18, said, that the China ar rived Saturday and the- Senator, Colon and Zealandia'Sunday. They had a fine trip and the health of the troops was excellent. Four deaths occurred. Lieutenant LaZalle, Eight eenth infantry, regulars, died Jnly 12 and was buried -Sunday afternoon at Cavite fort with full military honors. Private Maddoxt Eighteenth infantry, Bandsman Wise ot the First Colorado, and Sergeant Geddea of- the First Ne braska were given a sea burial. On the Fourth of July the China re discovered the lost- Wakes island. Its location has been in dispute heretofore. A strong landing party under the per sonal command of Greene went .ashore. The mapped observation shows its loca tion to be latitude 19:15 north, and lon gitude 61:63 east. They found the island three miles long aod not twenty five, as reported. Possession was takerr and the American, flag: hoisted. A rec ord of possession' was placed in a box and covered with stone. There is a fine t harbor hut coral reef outside. There is no trace of human beings, as the island has not been inhabited, for sixty years. Troops on the 'second transports will probably be landed at Paranaque and encamp near the first battalion of- Cali fornians, who went oyer Friday. The Japanese warship Na&iawa arriv ed today, bearing, the first news of Sampson's victory. Admiral Dewey had all of the 'ships of the fleet notified. Cheering began immediately and -lasted" .all the afternoon.- . .' . There is great rejoicing from Admiral Dewey down, also ashore among the troops? . There is a 'feeling of relief at the return of the Spanish fleet from Cadiz, though the belief is general that the victory, would be onrs'should they arrive. All are ready now for the word to 'advance on-Manila.
