Rev. Josepii Cook, the distinguished
lecturer and author, died at his summer
home in Ticonderoga, N. Y., June 25.
He had been in ill health several years.
His published Boston lectures fill ten
volumes. Ho was familiarly called "The
Philosopher," and was universally res
pected. Rev. Oeo. Shaw, a Methodist preacher,
pastor of the Olivet church, St. Paul,
Minn., has gone to work in a tailor shop,
refusing to accept money raised by
church amusements, suppers and dona
tions. He does not intend to quit
preaching, but turned to tailoring to
help out, as being well skilled in that.
Toads have invaded the town of Mc
Pherson, Kansas, in such numbers as to
iBterfere with travel by street cars,
bicycles and buggies. Horses can hard
ly be driven through the streets because
of their fear of the toads. The dry
weather, drying up the bogs and swamps
aroand the Jtown, caused the migration
of the toads.

Hobbe and cattle sheds comprising
122 stalls were burned at the state fair
groand late Wednesday afternoon last
The loss is approximately $1,200, fully
covered by insurance. It is supposed
that the fire was caused by a spark from
a passing locomotive, the shed being
aloag the south end of the enclosure
within a few feet of the railroad track.
The ire department responded to the
call, but 6n account of the high wind
the flames were fanned to a blaze before
the engine reached the scene, and it was
impossible to do anything better than
prevent their spreading to other struc
tares. It seems that the literary world can

WHAT NEXTf
It is said that the board of county
commissioners of Dodge county has
granted a perpetual franchise and right
of way over the county roads for an elec
tric railway, conditioned only on the
building of the proposed power canal,
the consideration for the grant being SI.
The signs of the times are such that
there is little telling what may happen.
The time maybe close at hand when the
railroad as we have known it for years is
to be relegated to the rear and the elec
tric railway is to be exploited pretty
much as the other has been before it
There are even now some evidences
that the railroad magnates the country
over are preparing to unload their hold
ings at a good round sum upon the pub
lic, while yet so many of that public are
in favor of government ownership and
operation.
Conditions now being such that profits
are not so enormous as formerly we may
see sales of railroads go begging to the
general public.
It is safe to set it down, however, that
the public should always have an equiv
alent for what it gives, and should not
grant royalties for nothing.
It is with franchises as with bridges,
for instance. Is a bridge needed? Is it
worth all it costs us? It is a pretty
good rule for the public not to assume
exclusive functions unless the same can
not be managed by private funds. 'The
world is governed too much." Don't
add to the burden unless you must
The Battle Creek Enterprise gives an
extended account of the storm that vis
ited that vicinity, June 19, a strip of
Highland, Dear Creek and Valley pre
cincts, Madison county, five miles south
west of Battle Creek and extended four
miles north of town, varying in width
from a mile to a mile and a quarter.
The devastation was complete. Wheat
and oats were cut off and pounded into
the ground until in some instances no
trace of the crop was left. Corn was
stripped and broken and gardens were
obliterated. The hail fall was tremen
dous and it was accompanied by a wind
which was disastrous to wind-mills,
sheds and out buildings. When the
storm reaohed the river and crossed into
Dear Creek and Valley it seemed to
break with all its fury. Trees were
stripped of their bark in many places
and vegetation was mowed to the ground.
Fine orchards were ruined, chickens by
the hundreds succumbed and even the
sparrows which sought shelter in the
trees were killed. At noon Wednesday
hail was lying to the depth of fourteen
inches in the lowlands about the river.
This was evidenced by A. C. Daniel, who
brought into town a half bushel measure
full of hail which he had scooped up
along the roadside. While it i9 impossi
ble at this time to make a correct esti
mate of the loss, it is safe to predict that
it will reach $75,000 and though divided
among many will fall hard upon a few
who are upon rented land and have
practically staked their all on this year's
crop. With a late fall, corn may be
redeemed to a certain extent, but small
grain is totally ruined.
The Hungarian gypsies are quite a
force in this country. It is customary
for them to elect a ruler. The head
quarters for the west is Blue Springs,
Nebraska. The queen of the gypsies in
America died several months ago in
Indianapolis, and since her death they
have been without a ruler. The journey
is being made to Minneapolis, Mum, to
hold a convention early in the fall for
the purpose of electing a queen to govern
the tribes of America. One thousand
are to pass through St Joseph, Mo., in
wagons the next two weeks. It is a most
wonderful government we have, anyhow,
that can allow all the various and multi
form titular kings, queens, sachems, etc.,
to reign in full sway unhindered under
the stars and stripes, and have them
keep the peace among each other, every
organization free to work out its own
designs so long as they do not interfere
with the general welfare.
The Nebraska railroads have unani
mously decided to refuse the request of
the business men of Omaha to run excur
sions to that city on Sundays during
the summer. The railroads would no
doubt abolish Sunday traffic entirely if
it could be done. Their sentiments are
expressed by Mr. Francis of the Burling
ton, who says: "The-best thought of
the beet people along our line is against
the Sunday excursion, and so are we.
We are Sabbatarians and believe in the
maintenance of Sunday as a day of rest,
instead of rollicking hip-hurray. These
affairs are pitfalls for the youth of the
land. Again, we do not want our men
to work on Sunday, except when abso
lutely necessary. They work too many
Sundays now." State Journal.

Henry L. Adams, a veteran of the
Civil war, died Saturday evening last
June 29, at 6:50 of paralysis, the second
stroke within a few weeks. His age was
67 years. He was born at Lowell, Massa
chusetts. On the rolls of Baker Post
G. A. R. of this city his occupation is
set down as farmer. He entered the ser
vice August 26, 1861, in Company H,
Twenty-seventh Illinois infantry, and
served till September 26, 1864, being
mustered out by reason of the expiration
of his term of serrioe. He joined the
post here in 1891.
The funeral took place Monday after
noon at 3 o'clock from the undertaking
rooms of Henry Gass, comrades of Baker
Post and Sons of Veterans in charge, an
escort of the latter marching to the
grave alongside the funeral car, the
firing over the open grave, and "the
taps," making realistio a common pic
ture of the war of 1861-'5.
Very fitting was the earnest prayer of
Rev. Munro, incorporated in which were
the beautiful lines of the Poet Bryant:
"8o live, that, when thy sommoas cornea to Joia
The innumerable caravan, that both
To that mysterious realm, where each ahall take
His chamber in the silent balls of death.
Thou go not, like the quarry alave at Bujfat.
Scourged to hia dungeon; bat sastaiaed and
soothed
By an unfaltering ttot, approach thy grave.
Like one that draws the drapery of bis coach
About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams."
Also the Grand Army ritual, as given
by Commander McAllister and Chaplain
Clark.
Under shifting, threatening clouds,
old comrades of the Grand Army, Sons
of Veterans and personal friends laid
the mortal remains of their friend in the
quiet grave, with a prayer to the Father
of all Spirits, whose tender mercy is
over all his works, and who doeth all
things well.

The home of Mrs. O. L. Mitohell was
the scene of a very beautiful wedding
Tuesday evening, June 25th, when Miss
Mary Charlotte Mitchell, daughter of
the late Dr. T. E. Mitchell, was united
in marriage to Mr. Garrett Hulst of
Columbus, Nebraska,
The beautiful and impressive ceremony
was performed by Rev. A. E. Marsh,
rector of the Episcopal church, assisted
by Bishop Williams of Omaha.
The bouse was beautifully decorated
with smilsx, cut roses, carnations, etc.,
which added greatly to the effect and
harmony of the strains from Lohengrin
wedding march played by Mrs. Alios
Cullingbam of Omaha.
The bride was attended by the Misses
Edna Hord, Mollie Ramsburgand Eliza
beth Mitchell. The groom was attended
by his brother, Mr. George Hulst
The many beautiful and costly pres
ents made a magnificent display as also
did the banquet table laden with the
many luxuries obtainable in this portion
of the world a paradise.
Among those in attendance from
abroad were Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Mitohell
and Mr. Albert Mitchell of St Louis,
Mo, Mr. Frank Richardson and friend
Senore Artnra Lane, Sonora, Mexico.
Mrs. George W. Hoist, Dr. and Mrs. D.

George Hulst, Mrs. Garrett Hoist Mrs.
Sarah Chase, Mrs. Oalllagbaw and Mias
Mercer, Omaha. Miss Edna Hord, A. J,
Lindley, Judge E. 0. Ewing, Central
City.
The bride, though born in Columbus
and living in Ogden and California in
her very youthful days, has spent the
greater part of her life in Clsrks and was
a leading society belle of this plaoe.
The groom is an active business man of
Columbus. His family are the repre
sentatives of one of the original settlers
(Vander Hulst) of New Amsterdam, later
on moving to Old Virginia. As the
Mitchell family bail from Maryland the
union of twodeoendants from the sister
states seems most felicitous.
Cupid's happy subjects departed the
next morning for an extended tour in the
east after which they will reside in
Columbus, being "at borne" August 1.

Plenty of fruit, nice. Columbus has

home-grown fruit than ever before.
Strawberries and cherries have been

ing. At Home Farm, five miles northeast
of city, the proprietor J. H. for severs!
years has been drilling the members of
bis family who sleep on the second floor
in the course to pursue in case of fire.
For years, fifty feet of one inch manila
ropenas been Kepi nanging in a con
spicuous plaoe on upper floor and J. H.
has on many occasions illustrated to the
family, by fastening one end of the rope
to a bedstead, throwing the other end
out of the window, then swinging feet
oat of the window, grasping rope with
both hands, then pass right foot to left
and in front of rope, then pass foot once
around rope, letting upper part of rope
be back of limb; the lower part of rope
will then pass over instep of right foot
Using the left foot for a brake on the
rope where it passes over instep of right
foot and it is wonderful with what
safety and ease members of his family,
inslading the fair sex, can descend
through the window, from upper floor
to the ground. A little joke is being
told on the instructor. One morning
recently the fire alarm' in Columbus
was plainly heard here aboat 0:30 and
the judge thought this an opportune
time to illustrate to his family the im
portaaoe of keeping cool, sad at the
same time retaining presence of mind.
So, while the ire alarm was souadisg,
the jadge partly made bis toilet grabbed
the rope, threw one end oat of window
to the ground, placed his right foot in
position, gave it that deft turn to form
a brake, aad slid off when thump! (a

and by night" The climate of Utah is
one of the richest endowments of nature.
On the shores of the Great Salt Lake

Why Mot Go to California?
Here's a suggestion for a holiday trip.
Buy a round-trip ticket to San Fran
cisco at the reduced rates which will be
in effeot on account of the Epworth
League meeting in that oity in July go
west by way of Denver and Salt Lake
City, past all the glorious mountain
scenery of Colorado and Utah spend a
few weeks in California come home via
Portland, Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane and
Billings, Mont.
If you have time, stop off and see Yel
lowstone Park. A month is sufficient for
the entire trip. In that time you will
see more than most people do in a life
time. And the expense is almost unbelieva
bly small.
Write for a copy of the Burlington's
