The number of deaths from lock-jaw
in and about New York city alone since
July 4, has been twenty-four. The doc
tors generally believe that the disease is
due to toy pistols used, but whether
from the wadding blown into the wound,
or from the dirt on the hand at the
time of the accident, or some other par
ticular, they are not agreed. Doctors
differ, but intelligent men the country
over, are of the opinion that the toy
pistol should be made to go out of busi
ness. Fred Drake and Hugh Bender came

A Union Sunday school picnic will
be held this Wednesnay in the grove
near the Loup river, west of the wagon
bridge, the Baptist, Congregational,

combining. A lengthy and novel pro

In another place in today's Journal
will be found an advertisement asking
for bids for the erection of the soldiers'
monument in this city. You can see by
the specifications set forth, something
of what the structure is to be in size and
shape. One of the stones will weigh
13,500 pounds. The monument will be
an enduring reminder of the labors in
this community of Baker post No. 9, un

not forgetting the fact that nearly all
the present membership have for years
kept the organization together, to get
ready for some such work as this.
Pat Maboney was drowned Sunday
evening while bathing in the Platte at
North Bend. A man named MoDermott
was drowned within ten feet of the
place just a year ago. Near the place
Sunday morning William Kruger was
teaching his three sons bow to swim.
He had given the first lesson to the two
older boys and had turned to tho young
est, who was still on the bank. A mo
ment later a scream from the two called
him to their rescue; they had been
drawn into tho main current and were
sinkiug. When he jumped to their aid
the smallest boy followed him, but he
succeeded in getting all the boys out.
Friday evening about 9:30 two well
dressed men played a trick at Mrs.
Phenney's place on Eleventh street,
such as are becoming all too common.
When they entered, one of them called
for five cents worth of candy and it was
given him by the young lady, Mrs.
Phenney's daughter. They seemed hon
estly to have no money but a 81, and a
85 bill, but in the deal worked the 81
off for a 85, getting 84.95 in change in
stead of 95 cents, the young lady not
noticing the steal until after they were
gone. A tap on the bell called the po
lice, who brought in one suspect, but
the ladies said he was not the man
wanted.
The wedding of Miss Anna Schoetag
and H. H. Wm. Myers, took place at the

ago, where Mr. Schostag went into the
cigar business, only relatives and a
few intimate friends of the contracting
parties being present to witness the un
ion. During her short stay in Colum
bus, Miss Anna won a number of friends,
who wish her much joy and happiness.
About 9:30 the Columbus Cornet Band
stole quietly up and rendered a few
choice selections which were very much
appreciated. After a liberal donation
by the groom, the boys bade the newly
married couple adieu. Mr. and Mrs. M.,
left Friday for Goehner, where they
will at once begin housekeeping. The
Joubxal joins their many friends in
extending congratulations and wishing
them an abundance of prosperity and
happiness.
John Dolinski, one of the city's con
tractors for sprinkler work outside the
business street limits, met with an al
most fatal casually Saturday evening.
Just quitting work for the day, he was
about to put the sprinkler into the city
store house near the stand-pipe. He
bad got down off the sprinkler, and
Engineer Burrell and wife who were
watching him were surprised to see him
get upon the wagon, and before John
could get to him, the team started up,
and he got there just in time to catch
the man as ho fell down off the seat of
the sprinkler. The man had seen that
the top of the door was not high enough
for him to escape injury, and "ducked"
his head down, but was caught on the
shoulders below the neck, doubling him
down and causing severe pain. He
groaned and said: "My back's broke, I
heard tho bones crack," but he was
conscious through it all. Drs. Martyn
and Geer arrived on the scene in fifteen
minutes, and Mr. Dolinski rode to his
home with Dr. Geer. The casualty oc
cured at 6:30 p. m. Monday at this
writing he is reported as resting easy.
He is about 55 years old.
Cities can learn of other cities how
to manage, and the following from the
Omaha Bee contains a suggestion valu
able to every city that may adopt and
enforce such an ordinance: "Mayor
Moores has signed the ordinance au
thorizing the location of iron waste
paper boxes on the street corners and
governing their use, and as the council
has already awarded a contract for the
placing and maintenance of the same,
they are expected to appear soon. The
ordinance declares it unlawful to scatter
on the street any waste paper or fruit
peelings and compels pedestrians to de
posit such matter in the receptacles
provided for the purpose. It is unlaw
ful to put in the boxes any sweepings,
ashes, garbage or other like heavy or
bulky matter. Under the contract, the
city will not be at any expense to put in
or maintain the boxes, but on the con
trary will derive a revenue from them,
the contractors paying 12 per cent of
the gross receipts from the advertising
on the boxes to the city."

The regiment is due at San Francisco
July 28.
General Barry passed through the
city Friday. He says that the soldiers
will be mustered out, after an examina
tion as to their physical condition, of
which an official record is made; making
up and auditing accounts. The officers
of the regiment will continue to hold a
sort of financial connection with the
army until their accounting of all prop
erties balance with that of the army is
closed.
Congressman Stark goes with Gen.
Barry as Governor Poynter's accredited
representative, to be able to get speedy
action in any emergency.

Nebraska farmers to the number of
a hundred or more visited the State uni
versity farm Tuesday of last week. The
plats of ground of one-tenth acre each
sown to various methods of cultivation
were of interest. One hnndred and
sixty-two varieties of grass havo been
tested; 141 varieties of winter wheat,
etc. Seed obtained from successful ex
periments is sent, free of charge, to citi
zens of Nebraska. Twelve horses are
kept on the farm for the sole purpose of
supplying hog cholera serum; 3,045
packages of infected chinch bugs have
been sent out from the department of
entomology. Chicken cholera vaccine
was sent to nine counties. A way to
inoculate prairie dogs and gophers and
thus get rid of them was shown to be
practical; in hog cholera cases 80 per
cent of the cases treated were saved. A
large amount of vaccine for blackleg is
sent out 92 per cent of the cases being
saved. The dairy school interested all,
and a sample cheese made by the stu
dents of the school was of such superior
quality that none was left at the close of
the day. Irrigating by use of the wind
mill and reservoir is shown. The farm
itself consists of 320 acres. The expense
of the experiment station proper, in
cluding all the work in animal patholo
gy, is borne by the United States gov
ernment . The state furnishes tho land
and buildings for the school of agricul
ture, besides providing for n great deal
of the instruction. The completeness of
the work has only been made possible
by reason of the funds obtained from
the federal government The Joubnal
wishes to add to the above items, taken
from a lengthy write-up in the Lincoln
Journal of the 19th, that such visits of
Nebraska farmers, their wires, sons and
daughters, will go far to encourage good
management at the State farm, and, as a
result, untold benefit to the state at
large.
