Falls City Journal. Mrs. John McPherson, who has been quite sick with typhoid fever, is reported better Last Sunday a train passed through the city on the Union Pacific railroad which was made up of eighty four cars, and all pulled by one engine. When it is remembered that these cars weigh from 33,000 to 45,000 pounds each, some idea may be had of the immense weight drawn by some of the large engines. Taking an average weight of 35,000 pounds these eighty-four cars would weigh 240,000 pounds. Schuy ler OuilL J. T. Cox, sgent of the B. k M, is home again from his European tour, and is receiving the hearty congratulations of his numerous friends on his safe return. Speaking in a general way, he was most pleased with his trip. The weather conditions, he says, were much better there than here, the days cooler, aa a rule, and the nights far more pleas ant. Commercially, there is not the rush and exdtement there as is in this country. Two business men meet on the street, and have a little time to visit together. On John Andrews' farm, in Webster, oats turned out 35 bushels to the acre, spring wheat 16 bushels and winter wheat 44 bushels by machine measure. Potatoes and apples will be very light crops.

There is no dis count on Dodge county any year, espe cially along old Maple Creek during a dry season. Fremont Herald. Last Friday's Fremont Tribune gives the following account of the wreck near there that caused the delay of trains: A broken truck from beneath a heavily loaded freight car on train No. 20 east bound on the Union Pacific caused a pair of wheels to go off the track at Sandburg, the aiding four miles west of Fremont, at 10 o'clock this morning. The train was stationary at the time and the damage was very small. The track was blockaded for a time, however, so that passenger trains were delayed for about an hour and a half. The car on which the break occurred waa loaded with bullion. A special to the Omaha Bee from Genoa, under date of Thursday last says: "Quite a sensation was created here yes terday by the announcement that Miss Ollie Young and Lawrence Hunt of thia dty were missing. Investigation brought to light the fact that a liveryman took them to Columbus, leaving here about midnight, where, it is supposed, they took the train for Iowa. Miss Young is the daughter of H. C. Young, proprietor of the Commercial hotel, and Hunt is a young fellow who came here from Iowa a few months ago to wait at table Hunt's parents live at Oneida, Iowa. Miss Young is only 17." Dr. Bebecca H. Longshore has had a varied experience since she was a resi dent of this dty, having been physician for the Pawnees after their removal from Genoa, Nebraska, to the Indian Terri torythe first lady physician among the Indians, in the employ of the govern ment; then to Australia, after a sojourn in California.

Mary, wife of B. P. Daffy, died at her horns ia wast Cnlamhaa, Saaday, Aug. 1L 1901, at 930 o'clock p. ul, aged about 55 years. She was taken dowa July 23, with a complication of laag aad kidney troubles which esaeed her death. Deceased was bora ia the county of Loath, Ireland, aad her pacaate haviag died at aa early age, she was raised by the parents of B. P. Daffy matil she was soma eight or aiae years of age, at which time the Duffy family smigritsd to Am erica, leaving her ia charge of an aunt of B. P. When about 16 or 17 years of age she went to Glasgow, Scotland, where she resided until the spring of 1872, at which time ahe came to toe United States, settling in Bliaom, July 5, 1872, she was united in mar riage to B. P. Duffey t the dty of Peoria, Dliaoia. After their marriage they resided in Peoria county until Oc tober, 1881, when they moved to Mary ville, Missouri, and there remained until the fall of 1895, at which time they came to Columbus, Neb. Six children survive her, viz: Marie L, Emmett E George W-, Peter P. and Bernard Paul, while oae boy baby paced away when but a few days of sge. She was a devoted mother, a kind wife, and vary much devoted to home aad the love of her family. All her children dearly loved her, and bow with their father, deeply mourn thair great loss. She had been sick just twenty days and never before dariag all her married life, had ahe called for a doctor. Her physicians did all they could for her, but it seamed that ahe waa doomed to die. During all her married life ahe care fully avoided all msnaer of story-carrying and trouble-making among her neighbors and was so attached to her family that ahe seldom visited any one, Early in her sickness she followed the scriptural injunction: "Is any among yon sick, call in the priests of the church, anointing him with oil, aad the prayer of faith will save the sick man, and if he be in aiae they will be forgiven unto him." She lived such a life that in the language of Robert Bums: If tara' aaotar vorid ah Utm ia hUM. Aad if tara' aaae.sfc siade tbe hwt al tium." The funeral took place thia Tuesday forenoon from the Catholic church, and her mortal remains were laid to rest in the Catholic cemetery east of this dty. to her ashes. Ta Ringiing Bros.' show Saturday toe largest and best ever exhibited in the dty; the number in attendance within the teata, afternoon and evening, was estimated at 14,000. Columbus has had two days in her history that were noted for the large crowds of people from the surrounding country. One of these waa in attend ance at Bsrnam's show, the other was Columbus day; now a third is added. While great preparations were made for a large crowd, it is safe to say that not one in the dty, furnishing eatables, waa fully prepared to ase such an enor mous number of people. They came from every direction aad many were here early ia the morning, starting from their homes at 2 and 3 o'clock. Many who rams here in the early days for supplies, but who in the latter years have found a market nearer home, were here to ase the great show. And it was great in every particular. During the evening performance there was a ten-minute dash of rain upon the canvas, which however did not interfere with the enjoyment of the audience, who were soon called upon to listen to a dis patch from Grand Island concerning the approach of a heavy wind storm, which, we guess, must have been dissipated somewhere, ss it didnt reach here. It is best for shows aad for people to be on the safe side. Samtk af Jakm X. maUsejaeu.
