Fowra, the republican candi date for superintendent of schools has done more for the advancement of edu cation in Nebraska than any superin tendent the state has had. He works with a purpose in view and with a vim and energy that astonishes those who in contact with him. Mr. Fowler the country schools in the pioneer mm well aa those of the Drasner- oaa counties and has raised the etaadard of iboth. Last winter he published a book giving detailed statistics of the condition of the schools of the state with many illustrations, which was classed by leading men of the state as the most importaat document issued by the state daring the year. Within a few weeks saothor book oa a course of study will have been printed which will be of great asrvioe to the country teachers. Mr. Fowler is the kind of man the state assds for OBsoersL-HnnsoiMtioaB. ener getic, truthful and who show by their work that they are worthy the trust of the public Jn September number of the Wo man's Home Companion opens with aa article of unusual interest to Bible stu dents, "Digging Up a Bible City."

Another article of extreme interest to novel-readera will be Landon Knight'sdsscription of "The Real String town on the Pike." There are three notable short stories, "Abercrombiea Wooing," "The Boat," and "Lady Lee The Story of n Horse." A magnificent double page ia devoted to the 8L Louis Exposition.

Am associsted press dispatch from Sterling, Colorado, date of August 21, says: "A large corps of government surveyors today began making n prelim inary survey for a ditch to carry water from the Platte river to the great Pawnee reservoir, which, it is believed, the gov ernment will build. It will require from two to three weeks to complete the sur vey aad it is estiswted the cost of the ditch will be fully $1,000,000. The ditch will be seventy-five mfles long, six feet deep, fifty feet wide at the bottom aad seventy-five feet wide at the top. From expressions made by members of the surveying party the impression is gained that the Pawnee basin has practically been decided upon as the site for one of the great nations! reservoirs." H. C 8rAOTjnto, a prominent citizen of Valley county, received $18,074.04 Friday last for 180 head of cattle, mak ing over $100 per head for his steers.

Saturday evening Miss Lillian Adama gave a ping pong party and also had a guessing game. Familiar advernsemenis irom maffazines with the names cut out were distributed, and the crowd guessed who they belonged to. Refreshments were served at each party. W. H. Lewie returned Tuesday of last week from a week's visit to Battle Greek, Michigan. He nays that through Iowa and JJlinoia the fields were very wet, but corn looked immense and Ne braska led tbem all for that crop. Battle Creek ia a city of lr563 inhabitants, about 165 miles from Chicago and 130 from Detroit, with n great many manu facturing industries; among them are Niebolx k 8hepards and the Advance threshing machine plaata; a great many factories making cereals, where costly machinery ia required. The large Sani tarium which was destroyed by fire is being re-built and will be one block in length, 535 feet. Electric ears ran west 25 miles to Kalamacoo, also to Gnll Lake, a summer resort, another line runs south, and one east Mr. Lewis says the reason Battle Creek is such a prosperoas city is becaaee of its manufacturing in dustries. Platte county has bettor farm ing laad. When Colambus succeeds in getting the power canal there ia no reason why we can not be a city of 20,000 ia a few years.- D. L. Hough, president of the United Engineering aad Contracting Company of New York, who recently made a tour of Nebraska in the interest of the irriga tion facilities of the state, has made an encouraging report on the electric power possibilities of the Loup river canal in Platte county, which is to empty into the reservoir north of Colambus and is known aa the property of the Nebraska Central Irrigation Company. He says the flow of water can be made to develop an average of 10,000 horsepower a day, to be sent n distance from Columbus to Omaha, Part of the time the flow will be capable of generating 20100 horse power a day. A plant to do this would oost not to exoeed $3,000,000. The pro posed canal ia to be twenty-three miles long, emerging from the Loup river near Genoa. It will approach Columbus over high land aad when near will undergo n fall of eighty-five feet. Direct action upon the turbines could be secured from 1,800 cubic feet of water per second, according to the figures of the engineer. Now it eastern capitalists can only be induced to take hold of the scheme what a magnificent improvement it would prove for thia vicinity! The city council met in regular. sion lust Friday evening. A petition signed by Frank J. Gerharx and twenty four other resident tax payers praying for the extension by the city council of additional water mains through certain streets in the northern part of the city, aa being mack needed for fire protection and for other uses, was presented and read and upon motion was referred to the committee oa public property sad water works. The finance oommittoe submitted n report finding the accounts for Jaly of City Treasurer Galley, correct. Councilnuui Clark introduced the fol lowing resolutions: "Whereas, The waterworka of Colambus at present rates charged for water, which ia far below rates charged by other cities, do not pay running expeasss, therefore be it Resolv ed, by the city council, the rates should be raised to a price that will make the waterworka self sustaining." The reso lution was adopted by the council. The council find that some change must be made in the price of water rente, as they are running behind in the expenses. The city have borrowed something like $5,000 during the last four years to spend on improvements and repairs of the waterworks plant. Taw Grays TiTBea llu Tharsday aftemooa the weather being fine aad the game well advertised the park was well filled with fun-loving people.

Edrob Journal: Thinking a few words from here at this time would be like n chat with eome of your readers, I jot a few notes. I arrived at my brother William's in Williamsfield, Knox county, HL, early Tuesday morning. Next morn ing, in company with brother went to Wyoming, took livery-there for mother's on the old homestead which lies about midway between Wyoming and Toulon; found mother, two brothers and three sisters there looking for me, and sure enough, a happy greeting it was. The next day waa old settlers' meeting at Toulon, so all rose early on Thursday, Aag. 14, the women folks having pre pared a huge picnic dinner for the occasion, your humble servant and oth ers were preparing for a big day. Arriv ed at O. S. M. at 10 o'clock a. m., and having lived in Toulon for seventeen years prior to moving to Columbus I thought I would know them all, but there is where I made a mistake. Many of them had moved away, many have died, even then, a few I met had to tell me their names before I could recognize them, but nearly every one I saw and recognized seemed to be as happy to meet me aa though they were a near relative, and the day will always be fresh in my memory as one of the happy events of my life. We returned to grandma's in the evening after I had promised about twenty persons that I would spend one dsy in Toulon before returning my time will be up one week from next Monday. A heavy rain fell last Wedneedsy morn ing and another Thursday night. The bottom lands on Spoon river and Indian creek have been overflowed most all spriag and the corn has been submerged so many times and so long that it is almost a complete failure. The oats harvest looks just like ours, lodged, weedy sad patches left which were too wet to operate the harvester. Sinoe my arrival the days have been cloudy but pleasant; will probably spend day in Wyoming on tomorrow. Joseph H. Drinnin. fascial latsa via Haifa Facile.
