The Central City Nonpareil says that the storm last Friday evening was the heaviest that has visited that section of the state for some time. An inch and a quarter of water fell there, but theyonly had a taste of the storm, which was much worse further north. At Ord and Sargent over four inches of water fell, amounting to a flood, and the accompa nying hail caused considerable damage to crops. There was a tornado of wind at Sargent, doing much damage. Nearly every windmill in the village was blown dawn, the B.& M. round house swept away and the streets full of floating debris and small outbuildings. The B. t Ml track was washed out, causing some delay in trains. It did not hail here and the wind was not high enough to do any damage. The following from the Bellwood Gazette is in reference to the young ladies who recently lost their lives while bathing in the treacherous waters of the Platte riven The funeral of Miss Rosa Hudson and Miss Merle Brassier was held on Saturday afternoon last, as an nounced, and- it was the largest ever held in Bellwood. Bav. Semper, pastor of the Bellwood M. E church and Bev. Smith, pastor of the M.E chnrch at David City, conducted the services, which were very solemn and impressive. The pulpit was draped in mourning while the offerings of flowers and beau tiful wreaths were profuse. After the services at the church the remains were conveyed to the Bellwood cemetery, where Rosa and Merle now sleep side by side in a double grave, the interior of which wae beautifully lined with white ataalin trimmed with flowers. The grave was also walled with brick. Through out the services many bowed theirheads in sorrow for the members of the afflict ed faanihBBi and on behalf of Marie aad Boss, who ware cut down in the bloom of youth." 90 from tbe Ernst, where I the people of Colambos that line it will pay yon C. S. 1st toa Late. The streets of the city are for the ben efit of the citizens. They axe not the individual property of the city council. They are not the subject of b arter and trade. If Platte street should have been opened all these years that it has been closed, that is no 'reason why M street should now be closed for all time by the building of a freight depot in the mid dle of the street. If Messrs. Lehmsn, Niewohner, Phil lips, Elliott aad Lntz, those Baembera of the city council who voted to dose M street to public travel, imagiae for an instant that their action is to be hid in a corner, they are Mistaken. They will continually be asked why Platte street should be opened and why M should be closed. It is one of those things that private citizeae hare a right to know, and we are inclined to put considerable em phasis on the word right. When men act in a reptssentatigu ca pacity, they have bo authority except what is derived, snd they should be dear in the motives which they bring to bear in the conduct of a public oSce, no mat ter how small it may be. These are places of public-trust, where men are ex pected to do their duty to the best of their aaality. It is not yet too late to retrieve your- selves, gentlemen, and you ought to do it. The mayor will doubtless veto the ordinance, and give such strong reasons for his veto that not a man of you but ought to line yourself up along aide of Clinton C. Gray in standing for the rights of tbe city. Thk Iqxiksxl. sees no other reasonable way for you to vote. You cannot ignore the facts in the case, and they will be made plain qrigh Mayor Held will doubtless be right in nia views of tee situation, as to business, and as to the law of the case and why not be with him. The city has rights that must be re- spec ted. Let the Union Pacific put its freight depot somewhere on its hue so as not to obstruct any more of our streets. They now have a coal chute on one. a round house on another, and have had a freight and passenger depot on another since 1S77. ' They have done the proper thing with their new passenger depot put it on their own land. Now let it be the same with them when they build a new freight depot, coal chute or round house build on their own. Reserve the streets for the safety and convenience of the people. CacTtatua.

The nomination of D. A. Beeher by the democracy for representative of Platte county, and also that of Wm. O'Brien for eennty attorney was en dorsed by the populists, and John Gib bon was spoken of for float representa tive and W. A.
