Johnny Baker passed through the
city Wednesday last on his way to New
York. In 1883 when Buffalo Bill organ
ized his Wild West show in this city,
Johnny was about the size of a bar of
soap, but he came from good Nebraska
stock, and had a level head. At that
time he was messenger boy and made
himself generally useful at Col. Cody's
headquarters. He took -readily to rid
ing bucking horses and handling a gun,
and today he ranks as the champion
fancy trap-shot of the world. Besides
this, he is now Cody's first lieutenant,
and attends to his duties in a manner
satisfactory to both employer and em
ployes. Through all his success his hat
has remained at his normal size, which is
very essential in dealing with so large
and mixed a lot of people as he has
to handle.
Good roads are always desirable for
reasons plain to be seen. The experi
mental stations have proven that, taking
the average dirt road as the basis of
comparison, the gravel road will enable
a team to haul three times, a plank road
four times and an iron tube or rail ten
times as much. In Nebraska, our condi
tions nearly everywhere are such that
there is now no good excuse for poor
roads. With the grading machine the
expense is reduced to the minimum.
The gutters at the aides can be made
ample and deep enough for good drain
age. The crowning, middle road-way
can be kept high and dry by occasional
grading up, and the ooqstant travel
packing the dirfTTKere are places here
and there where this line of work has
been followed, and in those places com
plainta" of bad roads have ceased.

We are in receipt of a letter from
Eben Pierce (in the early 70's a resident
of this city), in which he gives, in detail,
all that is known, to the general public
at Tacoma, Washington, in regard to A.
J. Stevens, who left this city under a
cloud, and disappeared from view. Mr.
Pierce says that Stevens came to Kalama,
Washington, then the location of the
general office of the N. P. K. R; that
Gen. Sprague, cousin of Mrs. Stevens
was living there, and was general super
intendent of that part of the road. For
a while he was in the office under Gen.
Sprague, until one morning he took his
departure on the Portland boat, and was
ever after lost to view.
It is current report (where it started
we know not), that ten of the jurors in
the Gentleman case, on first ballot were
for a verdict of murder in the first degree,
and two for acquittal, these last being
Jay Stevens and Otto Eallweit. The
Platte Center Signal, whose editor,
Christian Gruenther, is also clerk of the
district court, in quite a lengthy article
detailing some things in regard to the
jury's action after the case was submitted
to them, had this paragraph, which we
quote word for word: "Finally the 10
men consulted among themselves and
rather than put the county to the tre
mendous expense of a new trial, they
consented to submit a 2d degree verdict
to the two men, who accepted."
The twenty-seventh annual mask
ball of the Pioneer Hook k Ladder Co.
took place at the opera house Friday
night and was a success socially, and the
boys will have quite a little surplus after
paying their heavy bills to place in their
exchequer. The evening's festivities
were preceded during the afternoon by
a parade through the business streets of
the city George Washington in full uni
form (Alfie Heintz) then the City Band
whose members were dressed in all
kinds of ludicrous costumes, some of
them being so well disguised that even
their own relatives failed to recognize
them. Then the Hookies in their natty
new uniforms with their splendid truck.
In the evening about eighty maskers
participated in the dance and all seemed
to enjoy the occasion to the fullest ex
tent. Clowns, cow boys, Mexicans, base
ballists, sailors, soldiers, flower girls,
etc., etc., were there, and presented a
novel looking Scene while going through
the movements of the different dances.
Carrie Nation put in an appearance car
rying a good-sized hatchet, and for a
time it looked as though she might
smash things generally, but before any
damage was done and after participating
in a cake walk Carrie was quietly es
corted from the hall by a burly, tow
headed policeman. Ed. Fitzpatrick, jr.,
was certainly a success in this character
ization. Good music for the occasion
was furnished by the Orpheus orchestra,
and the program of dances was not com
pleted until after 2 o'clock. Owing to
the fact of the existence of smallpox in
the city, which doubtless kept many
from attending the dance, the Hookies
should feel well satisfied with the at
tendance. As usual, the different com
mitteemen did their part well and to the
entire satisfaction of their patrons. The
prompting was done by Geo. J. HsgeL

Demth of an Aged Mother.
We copy the following from the Kan
kakee (III.) Gazette of January 28. The
subject of the sketch was married at the
age of 19; her husband died in 1875.
She passed the winter of 1892, in this
city, with the family of her son, who
visited her the first of January last. She
retained her health and her mental facul
ties in a wonderful degree up to the
very last hours of her life:
Mrs. Aurelia S. Winslow passed to the
"other shore" on Saturday evening at
8:45, at the home of Mr. Geo. C. Simonds,
after a few days' illness. She had attain
ed a greater age than any other person
in Bourbonnais township. She celebrat
ed her 92d birthday on the 2d of July
last. The day was one of social festivity,
a large number of her lady friends from
this city spending the afternoon wish her
as had been their custom on her birthday
for several years.
Mrs. Winslow had seven children.
Three survive her Henry Winslow of
Columbus, Neb.; Peleg Winslow of Gray
ville, 111.; and Mrs. G. C. Simonds with
whom she has lived for twenty years.
She retained her faculties to the last.
She took a keen interest ir life and the
events of the day, and was a charming
companion. Her short illness was at no
time alarming. She ate her supper on
Saturday evening with usual relish.
Her end came like the fading beams of
day, a gentle passing of the spirit from
its worn-out tenement. She was a faith
ful christian, a loving mother, an estima
ble lady, a kind friend to all who wished
to meet or know her. The vacancy can
not be filled.
